The Supreme Martial Arts Master in the World of Nine

"A ghost, a real ghost!"

Zhao Yi's eyes flickered, showing some excitement and agitation.

After all, seeing ghosts is just as exciting and nerve-wracking as when Zhao Yi first saw the zombies.

Feng Luoyan's paper puppets were also quite eerie, but compared to real ghosts, they were still lacking.

Seeing this hideous ghostly appearance, Zhao Yi was satisfied.

comfortable!

I've seen zombies with Master Four Eyes, and now I've seen ghosts too.

"Open the Dharma Eye, connect Yin and Yang!" Zhao Yi immediately took out a magic weapon.

Although I can see this ghost now, if it attacks me in a moment and I don't have time to use my magic weapon, I'll be at a huge loss.

"Um?"

After activating his divine eye, Zhao Yi immediately realized that something was wrong with the female ghost.

"What is that blood-red line?"

A strange thread suddenly appeared from the female ghost's head.

Just like a marionette!

"Could this ghost be controlled by someone?"

Zhao Yi's eyes flashed, and he began to have some doubts.

This restaurant is a haunted house!

Zhao Yi was no stranger to the plot where the former boss suddenly went mad, killed everyone, and then committed suicide.

It appears in many horror movies, and is even quite common in Hong Kong and American horror films.

Upon seeing the hideous female ghost before him, Zhao Yi immediately had some guesses in his mind.

"Could it be that the person behind this female ghost, who orchestrated the massacre at the restaurant, is now coming after me?"

A strange expression immediately appeared on Zhao Yi's face.

This plot is so cliché and melodramatic.

"Li Qingshan? Or Wu the comprador?"

"If you want my head, come and take it if you dare. No need for this nonsense."

Zhao Yi smiled and spoke to the female ghost.

"Hehehe—"

Just then, the female ghost spoke, uttering a man's voice.

How did you know it was me?

It was Li Qingshan's voice.

But this time, the voice no longer had that honest and simple feeling; instead, it carried a sinister and sharp quality.

"I can understand that you killed the restaurant owner and seized his property."

"But now that I've bought this restaurant, even if I die, it won't be your turn to inherit it."

"I'm genuinely curious, so why did you come to kill me?"

Zhao Yi asked.

He was genuinely curious.

Even if Li Qingshan killed his relatives and seized the restaurant owner's wealth.

But this has little to do with Zhao Yi; the other side is eager to come and kill him tonight.

This doesn't make logical sense.

"To remain so calm in the face of evil spirits, he's quite a character."

"Wu the comprador said you inherited the estate of a village, worth over ten thousand silver dollars."

"I'm really lucky. I went through so much trouble to get more than ten thousand silver dollars from that damned bastard's family."

"And you easily got over ten thousand dollars, what makes you so special?!"

"Hehehe, hand over all your money, and I might spare your life!"

Li Qingshan's voice carried a hint of ferocity, smugness, and a touch of madness.

"That Wu comprador guy, it seems he's investigated me."

"But he wasn't that kind-hearted. I simply don't believe he would hand over tens of thousands of silver dollars to Li Qingshan."

A hint of mockery flashed in Zhao Yi's eyes.

Although the details of the deal between Wu the comprador and Li Qingshan are still unclear, how could people like them possibly honor their contracts honestly?

"That Wu comprador is a heinous criminal, an absolutely wicked person, and he will definitely double-cross others."

"But he doesn't seem to have any magical energy fluctuations, so he shouldn't be a cultivator. How could he defeat Li Qingshan, who can control evil spirits?" Zhao Yi suddenly felt a little puzzled.

"Never mind, we'll find out soon enough."

He still lacked experience; he was just a cook, not a crime-solving expert or a master manipulator.

"Stop it!"

In Zhao Yi's view, if you can't figure something out, don't dwell on it; just confront it directly.

Whoosh!

Ah Da, who was originally standing by the window, turned into a blur and rushed into the air outside.

"What?"

Li Qingshan's expression changed drastically, clearly not expecting A-Da's presence.

"What on earth is this thing? Could it be... could it be... could it be..."

"Guardian soldiers?!"

Li Qingshan was filled with horror and shock; he had only heard of it, but had never seen it before.

"You've got some knowledge!"

Zhao Yi grinned, then moved his feet and rushed out.

"You think you can run away?"

Upon seeing this, Li Qingshan couldn't help but scream.

"Run? You can play with my Ah Da first!" Zhao Yi chuckled, and his figure disappeared.

"asshole!"

Li Qingshan immediately took control of the evil spirit and was about to give chase.

But the Heavenly Dao Divine Weapon instantly entangled itself with it.

Ah Da raised his hand and threw a punch, which was accompanied by a faint golden light.

puff--

The hideous demon was instantly sent flying backward, and much of its yin energy dissipated.

"So strong!"

"This is the legendary guardian weapon? It's terrifyingly powerful."

"Damn it, I suffered so much and went through so much trouble to raise this evil spirit, and he's just a country bumpkin, why does he have divine soldiers protecting the faith?!"

Unfortunately, what he received in response was Ah Da's frenzied punches.

At this moment, Zhao Yi followed the blood-red thread and ran wildly towards the back street of the restaurant.

"The source of the bloodline is most likely the place where Li Qingshan set up the altar."

"This guy dared to plot against me, he must be killed."

Zhao Yi moved swiftly, his steps were like the wind, and his speed was extremely fast.

A few minutes later, Zhao Yi appeared in front of an old house.

"This is it!"

The evil spirit's threads followed the gate of the house, penetrating deep into the old house.

Without wasting words, Zhao Yi threw a punch, and with a loud bang, the door shattered into pieces.

"Li Qingshan, your grandpa is here!" Zhao Yi rushed in.

But the scene before him made Zhao Yi pause.

"puff--"

"What the hell is going on?"

Zhao Yi's eyes widened, staring at the scene before him in disbelief.

In the center of the courtyard of the mansion, there was an altar, and a person was performing a ritual in front of it.

This man was none other than Li Qingshan.

At this moment, Li Qingshan was almost completely naked.

Only the vital parts were partially obscured by a black talisman.

The red thread was emerging from something behind the black talisman.

"What kind of unorthodox methods are these? They're disgusting!" Zhao Yi said, frowning.

"What? How could you possibly find me!"

When Li Qingshan saw Zhao Yi appear before him, he couldn't help but exclaim in surprise.

"You disgusting thing, just die!"

Zhao Yi originally wanted to teach Li Qingshan a lesson, but he ended up feeling disgusted by him.

"You're an eyesore!"

Zhao Yi didn't hesitate any longer. He stomped his foot hard and shot out like a cannonball.

"Go to hell!"

Zhao Yi moved with lightning speed, rushing to the front of the altar in an instant and throwing a punch at Li Qingshan.

The power of copper skin and iron bones converged and slammed fiercely towards Li Qingshan.

boom--

A powerful punch, like a bolt of lightning, landed heavily on Li Qingshan's head.

In an instant, Li Qingshan's head exploded like a watermelon.

[Ding! The host has cleansed himself of sins and gained 3 strands of merit.]

Just as Li Qingshan died, the system notification sounded.

"As expected, this disgusting thing has committed many sins; I've gained another 3 strands of merit!"

Zhao Yi's face lit up with joy, but before he could collect his spoils, a piercing and sinister laugh suddenly came from behind him.

"Hehe, big brother, will you play games with me?"
