As Er Lengzi spoke, his saliva had already formed a small stream on the ground.

It turned its head to look at Yang Guang with an expectant expression. Its heterochromatic eyes shone brightly against the backdrop of black mist, exuding a kind of nauseatingly clear stupidity.

"Father Yang!"

"Can I eat this?"

"Just one bite!"

"A small sip!"

"A bite the size of a fingernail is enough!"

Yang Guang's mind went blank for a moment, and he stared intently at Er Lengzi.

He had already analyzed the runes and black aura on Zhang Xu's body.

The origin of this thing is extremely strange, and its magical techniques don't match any of the sects in China.

Purely imported goods.

The aura of this technique is extremely rare in China; an ordinary person might not encounter it even once in their lifetime.

But Er Lengzi said it had eaten it?

Yang Guang squatted down, grabbed Er Lengzi by the back of the neck, and pulled the stupid dog in front of him.

"You said you've eaten it?"

"Hmm!"

Er Lengzi paddled in the air with his four legs, looking completely self-righteous: "That little brat from last time!"

"It's crunchy and tastes like chicken."

"But the more you chew, the more fragrant it becomes!"

Yang Guang was taken aback.

Last time?

It was all dark?

Er Lengzi was lifted into the air, his four legs still thrashing wildly, drool dripping down his face.

Everyone's getting anxious.

"Father Yang, let me eat!"

"It would be a huge loss if it got away!"

Yang Guang did not let go; he turned his head to look at Zhang Xu again.

Zhang Xu had completely lost his own consciousness at this moment, and his ghost was like a puppet being led by strings.

He knelt upright in the center of the main room, the black aura emanating from his body growing thicker and thicker.

Those runes were frantically devouring his remaining soul.

At this rate, Zhang Xu's remnant soul will be completely refined by the talisman in less than half an incense stick's time.

He tossed the simpleton behind him, took out a yellow talisman from his pocket with his right hand, and held it between his index and middle fingers.

"Shut up and stay put."

"You can't eat this yet."

Er Lengzi let out a loud scream, his expression one of utter grievance.

Yang Guang ignored it.

He stared at the black aura that was constantly expanding around Zhang Xu, while the yellow talisman in his hand began to glow faintly.

"What the hell? You dare to refine a soul in front of me? You really don't take the Celestial Masters seriously, do you?"

As soon as Yang Guang finished speaking, he suddenly flicked his wrist.

The yellow talisman held between his fingers flew out, tracing an extremely dazzling crimson arc in mid-air, and precisely alighted on the center of Zhang Xu's chest.

The instant the yellow talisman touched the body.

On the surface of Zhang Xu's translucent soul body, all the dense, dark red runes simultaneously lit up.

A visible crimson flame spread along the runes.

It has the same effect as a string of firecrackers with a lit fuse.

"what……"

Zhang Xu, that empty shell that had lost all self-awareness, suddenly raised his head and let out an extremely tragic roar.

The dark red runes all over his body were burning intensely.

The black energy was forced back by the crimson flames, tumbling and peeling off Zhang Xu's body.

It's like peeling skin, piece by piece.

The black fragments that had been peeled off fell to the ground, sizzling and smoking.

It also emitted an extremely pungent, burnt smell.

to be frank.

Zhang Xu did many immoral things during his lifetime, and Yang Guang himself had no liking for him.

But he couldn't let Zhang Xu's soul be refined like this.

It's not because of any kind of compassion.

It's purely because of that sentence that guy just squeezed out with all his might.

There's a lot of information in those words; Yang Guang simply wanted to figure out what was going on.

Zhang Xu's screams echoed throughout the courtyard.

The sound waves almost shook the small coffins off the locust tree.

Er Lengzi lay prone at Yang Guang's feet, his heterochromatic eyes, one gold and one blue, fixed intently on the black fragments that had been peeled off Zhang Xu's body.

My saliva kept dripping down my face.

The dog frantically pawed at the ground with all four legs, almost taking off from the spot.

Yang Guang didn't even glance at it.

His entire focus is now on Zhang Xu.

The flames of the yellow talisman were gradually peeling away the magical runes, a process akin to pulling teeth.

Pulling them out one by one was slow and painful.

Zhang Xu's screams grew weaker and weaker, and the runes on his body became fewer and fewer.

Ignoring Zhang Xu's howling, Yang Guang seized the opportunity to grab Er Lengzi by the back of the neck and dragged the stupid dog in front of him.

Explain yourself.

Yang Guang stared at Er Lengzi's heterochromatic eyes, which were filled with clear, foolishness: "When was that thing you ate last time?"

Er Lengzi was held in mid-air, his four short legs thrashing about frantically, but his mouth was surprisingly nimble.

"It was...the night you fell asleep last time!"

"When?"

The simpleton tilted his head and thought for a long time, his muddled brain spinning several times before finally blurting out, "Anyway, it was last time!"

"Dog was asleep when a dark, shadowy thing came in outside, about the size of a mouse."

"It dashed into the yard in a flash!"

"Turns out, those two big dogs at the door were those two lumps of stone!"

"It moved with a snap!"

"They turned into two huge dogs, and they started biting at that thing, crunching and chewing it with gusto!"

Er Lengzi, his face full of resentment, said, "Luckily, I, Dog Master, reacted quickly!"

"Before those two big dogs finished chewing, we snatched a small piece from their mouths!"

"Just a small piece!"

"It's just crunchy and tastes like chicken!"

"The taste was absolutely amazing!"

"Father Yang, hurry up and find the source!"

"I'm craving it so badly!"

Yang Guang threw Er Lengzi to the ground.

I was thinking to myself, "Wow!"

How could something like this happen after I fell asleep?

Yang Guang sneered inwardly.

Any Tom, Dick, or Harry dares to rush into his yard?

Do they really think those two Qilin at the entrance are just for decoration?

Those two stone kylins were passed down through generations, and Yang Guang doesn't even know how many years they've been there.

Not to mention the small coffins hanging on the locust tree in the yard.

Each coffin was sealed with an extremely powerful restriction.

When evil spirits from outside enter the yard, it's like a mouse falling into a cat's den.

Once you get in, you can't get out.

Even if the Black and White Impermanence came to the door late at night, they would have to hand over their name cards first, judging by this situation.

What the hell is this?

You dare to come here and court death?

However, this also indicates that someone is already watching him.

Just right.

You can learn what you want to know from Zhang Xu.

Before Yang Guang could fully process what was happening, the commotion behind him had already changed.

Zhang Xu's screams stopped completely.

He turned his head.

The dark red runes on Zhang Xu's body had all been burned to ashes by the flames of the yellow runes.

But the cost is also obvious.

Zhang Xu's soul was extremely weak.

It was originally only semi-transparent, but now it's so transparent that it's almost invisible.

It's like looking through three layers of frosted glass.

Yang Guang could even see the moss on the courtyard wall behind him through his body.

But Zhang Xu's overall spirit and energy were clearly different.

Those ghostly eyes were no longer empty; they now held Zhang Xu's own consciousness once more.

This is why Zhang Xu can enjoy such treatment; if it were any other ghost, it would be much easier.

At least I won't suffer.
