The ultimate master in the city

The heavy rain poured down, and the strong wind whipped up the rain, causing a person with a long braid and dressed in Qing Dynasty official robes to bounce up and down.

Not far behind the "Qing Dynasty man" was a young man wearing a leather jacket and pants, his hands clasped together, muttering to himself. Then the concrete road on the street cracked open, and large machetes emerged...

To the ordinary residents nearby, this scene was indescribably eerie and terrifying. Their first instinct was that it was a movie shoot, but looking around, there were no cameras at all. Besides, it was a rainy night, what film crew would be out shooting? Are they crazy?

Some people took out their phones to record this strange scene, but their phones, which were clearly fully charged, were now strangely out of power.

As the street wrecked into chaos, with those "folk knives" slashing wildly at the "Qing Dynasty people," finally an elderly man reacted and roared, "What are you looking at! This is a battle of immortals! Close the door!"

Immortals?

The others were filled with horror and astonishment. They quickly closed the door, but some of the bolder ones were still secretly peeking out the window.

One after another, "Earth Spirit Blades" slashed at the zombie's body, gradually tearing the official's robes to shreds, revealing a set of gleaming white chainmail beneath.

Countless "Earth Spirit Blades" slashed at the chainmail, carving deep craters into the armor. Cracks appeared on the zombie's face and neck. Its eyes widened in horror as it turned around with difficulty and suddenly spat out thick, black corpse poison.

The corpse poison was increasing, and it actually solidified and did not disperse, spreading across half the street and quickly covering its body.

Zhou Fengchen couldn't see it, and seeing that the corpse poison was heading towards the residents' houses, he quickly paused and used the "Calling Wind Forbidden Spell" again to disperse the corpse poison. Then he looked around and found that the area in front of him was empty, with no trace of the zombie.

"Let's see where you can run now!" He gritted his teeth, and with a few quick steps, he climbed onto the roof of the building next to him. Looking down from above, he saw that the zombie had already escaped into an alley on another street, and he quickly gave chase again.

In the chase, fearing that someone else might be harmed, Zhou Fengchen mustered all his strength and rushed behind the zombie, slashing it with his knife.

"Jingle bells..."

The zombie was probably badly injured and didn't dare to fight back; it just kept trying to escape.

Suddenly, the view ahead opened up, as if they had arrived at a small square. The zombie's body abruptly stopped moving.

Zhou Fengchen also became wary and quickly took more than ten steps back.

At this moment, a lantern with a canopy suddenly lit up on the top of the pillar next to the zombie, and twenty-four small mirrors strangely appeared on the surrounding houses. The mirrors tilted at the same time, emitting a string of light towards the lantern, which went straight to the zombie. There was also a Bagua light mark on the ground that flashed and disappeared.

The zombie suddenly emitted wisps of blue smoke and let out a strange wail.

"The Eight Trigrams Yin-Yang Formation! A very cleverly designed setup!"

Zhou Fengchen looked around and saw a person wearing a raincoat and hood walking slowly towards him in the rain. Judging from the way she walked, it was a woman.

He squinted, scrutinizing it closely, and his anger flared. He roared, "Linglong! You knew I'd run into it, didn't you? You predicted it would pass by here, didn't you?"

The woman extended her slender fingers and lifted the hood of her cloak, revealing Zhou Linglong's serene and delicate face. She walked gracefully over and said softly, "Call me 'sister'!"

"I'm not in the mood!" Zhou Fengchen said angrily, "If you're so sure, why didn't you come to help sooner? Do you know how many people it killed? You..."

Snapped!

Before he could finish speaking, Zhou Linglong slapped him across the face.

Zhou Fengchen touched his face and said angrily, "Why did you hit me? Are you crazy? We're all adults, can't you give me some face?"

Zhou Linglong sighed softly, "I hit you because you disobeyed me, misused forbidden spells, and disrupted the magnetic field. For a week, all the electrical appliances in this area malfunctioned and the signal was interrupted. Do you think you're so powerful and amazing?"

"I didn't mean it that way!" Zhou Fengchen said dejectedly, "I wanted to kill it, but I had no choice. Besides, my father taught me this, it's not meant to be just for decoration. I can use it whenever I want!"

Zhou Linglong raised her hand again, but Zhou Fengchen quickly dodged, forcing a dry laugh: "Just kidding, I know, I know, you don't need to do that again. Why are you being so fierce? It'll make you ugly!"

Zhou Linglong rolled her eyes: "Forbidden spells can only be used to save your life. Never use them recklessly, and besides..."

"And what?" she didn't finish her sentence, turning to look at the zombies in the arena and saying, "Nalan Abu, whose Han name is Yang Wudi, was initially the personal bodyguard of Haoge, the banner lord of the Manchu Bordered White Banner. Later, he was promoted to captain and joined the army, and was ordered to guard the vicinity of Songhu. He loved Chinese literature and even more so Taoist magic. He once knelt before the Baihe Temple on Lingyun Mountain for three days and three nights, begging to become a disciple of the White Crane Taoist. The White Crane Taoist was afraid of the power of the Qing army and also wanted to receive protection, so he eventually took him in as a disciple and taught him everything he knew."

Nalan Abu diligently practiced Taoist magic, particularly enjoying the Five Ghosts Moving Mountains, head-drinking techniques, and health preservation methods. However, at the age of thirty-four, he fell seriously ill and could not be saved. Unwilling to die, he used Taoist magic to seal his own body and dispel the spirit of Miss Chen. He then carved the flesh and bones of his most beloved concubine into a solitary spirit, which he placed on the statue of Miss Chen, where it was sustained by incense offerings. Unfortunately, even sealing his body did not save him, and he ultimately became the corpse he is now, neither human nor zombie, still possessing consciousness, but its nature is unknown.

Zhou Fengchen frowned as he listened: "How do you know so much?"

Zhou Linglong said, "Because I sealed him away last time he appeared. I don't have your abilities; I can only seal him, not kill him!"

Zhou Fengchen said with a stern face, "Why didn't you stop the Lone Demon and the Corpse Demon from harming people?"

"Am I some kind of savior?" Zhou Linglong retorted, then added, "Besides, weren't they all solved by you, the good guy?"

Zhou Fengchen was speechless, and felt a burning sensation on his face.

At this moment, the zombie Yang Wudi suddenly let out a hoarse laugh and spoke in human language: "Zhou Linglong, you are wrong. I am still me, and I have never changed."

As he spoke, his body jolted, his armor shattered, and his skin peeled away like a stone, revealing a body of taut muscles.

"Alright, you're a corpse spirit, that title suits you well!" Zhou Linglong chuckled, took a step back, and nodded at Zhou Fengchen. "Go for it, good man. The forbidden spell combined with the Yin-Crossing Array has broken his centuries-old stun; we can kill him!"

Zhou Fengchen said with a straight face, "Could you please use a different form of address? This way of addressing me is hilarious!"

Zhou Linglong nodded seriously, "Okay, good brother."

Zhou Fengchen shook his head, brandished his ancient sword, sprang up, and slashed down at the head.

As the "stones" fell off Yang Wudi's body, he seemed to become much more agile, and swung his spiked club to meet the attack.

Ding ding ding!

The two, one human and one of the stiffened, clashed again. Yang Wudi, no longer a stiffened body, was now able to cut through the skin with the knife, and soon several wounds appeared on his body.

He lost the will to fight, took the opportunity to brush past Zhou Fengchen and turned to run.

Zhou Fengchen didn't bother to greet Zhou Linglong and followed after her.

They ran out of the suburbs one after the other, and just as they were about to catch up, a train suddenly came towards them from the front.

With a light step, Yang Wudi swung his rat-tail braid and scurried onto the top of the train.

Upon seeing this, Zhou Fengchen immediately jumped up after him.
