What do you mean by saying that the corpses I sew are all ominous creatures?

"roar!"

Only then did the evil spirit finally react to the shock of the dragon's might.

It let out an angry roar, trying to break free of its restraints.

However, the Mirage Dragon Silk is not only incredibly tough, but it also possesses the unique soul-locking and spirit-stabilizing power of the Mirage Dragon Tendon.

The more the evil spirit struggled, the tighter the mirage dragon silk tightened.

Those seemingly delicate threads were deeply embedded in its body, which was formed from resentment.

At the same time, it also emitted a series of "buzzing" sounds.

The sound was like a red-hot wire cutting into fatty meat.

While the bone needles were moving, I wasn't idle either.

Taking advantage of the brief moment when the evil spirit was completely bound, I used the explosive force of the Mountain-Shaking Force to rush directly in front of it.

As the distance closed to less than a meter, a bone-chilling coldness rushed towards us.

I took a deep breath and gathered most of the malevolent energy in my body onto my left arm.

After the meridians in both arms were connected, the meridians in my left arm were like a wide highway, allowing the violent internal energy to rush through.

At this moment, my left hand, enveloped by the full force of the killing energy, faintly emitted a layer of golden light.

I didn't use any fancy moves, I just clenched my fists.

Then, I twisted my waist sharply, and with all my strength and that powerful evil aura, I blasted it into the faceless head of the composite evil spirit!

"break!"

With a deep, muffled growl, my fist slammed solidly into the evil spirit's body.

"boom--!"

A muffled thunderous roar exploded at the edge of the foundation pit.

The jade-colored malevolent aura, imbued with the might of a dragon, shattered the composite evil spirit's head defenses like a devastating hammer.

Then, it spreads downwards along its body.

The composite evil spirit couldn't even let out a final roar.

Its massive, bloated body, after being hit by my punch, exploded from the inside like a watermelon struck by a heavy sniper rifle!

Countless distorted human faces were instantly reduced to ashes under the impact of the malevolent energy.

The thick, grayish-white aura spreading above the construction site, having lost the support of resentment, was like rotten mud without a skeleton.

They instantly disintegrated, turning into countless gray specks of light.

Finally, under the night breeze, it completely dissipated into nothingness.

The construction site, which was originally filled with howling winds and spreading frost, seemed to pause the moment the evil spirits were dispersed.

Temperatures began to rise slowly, and the biting chill gradually subsided.

I stood there, slowly exhaling a breath of stale air.

After I returned the surging evil energy on my left arm to my dantian, the jade-colored halo surrounding my body also disappeared.

Then, with a slight gesture of my right hand, the black bone needles that had dispersed the mirage dragon silk silently flew back to my sleeve.

The whole process was swift and efficient, without any unnecessary delays.

"Slap, slap, slap..."

A series of crisp footsteps came from behind.

I turned my head and saw Li Qing stuffing the compass into his pocket and walking towards me.

He glanced at the now calm foundation pit, then at me, and a smile appeared on his lips.

"Well done, Lao Chen, your murderous aura is getting more and more domineering."

That punch just now, even I felt a little scared.

Li Qing walked to my side and said in a low voice.

"However, this matter is not over yet."

He pointed to the bottomless pit in the foundation, his expression becoming slightly serious.

"That thing just now, although it looked big and scary."

But frankly speaking, this is just a facade.

Li Qing's gaze was very firm.

"The real source, the thing that caused the gathering of yin energy and gave birth to these vengeful spirits, is still buried in a deeper place."

Hearing Li Qing's words, I calmly nodded in agreement.

Of course I know there's something else down there.

Just now, at the moment I shattered the evil spirit, I could still feel the cool aura between my eyebrows. The subtle yet more refined cold energy deep in the foundation pit did not disappear with the dissipation of the evil spirit.

But what about it?

I turned my head and glanced at Boss Wang and the others who were peering in our direction from a distance, and I felt very calm.

We're here this time because we took money from Boss Wang to "cover up" for that swindler Qingyunzi.

Now, I have quelled the trouble caused by Qingyunzi, and I have also dispersed the composite evil spirit that almost killed them.

As the one who has to cover for you, I've done my job.

As for what's buried beneath this foundation...

That's outside the scope of my duties this time.

Unless there's a clear exchange of benefits, or unless it involves causes and effects I can't avoid, I'm too lazy to bother.

They are even less willing to provoke unknown dangers for no reason.

My principle in doing things is to do what I'm paid for.

I didn't say much to Li Qing, but simply turned my gaze to a patch of muddy ground not far from the foundation pit.

There, a translucent, bluish-gray figure lay prone.

It was the same long-robed ghost that Qingyunzi had sent down into the pit to scout ahead, only to be slapped away by the composite evil spirit.

This is the "gentle breeze" that Li Qing mentioned.

The ghost in the long robe was seriously injured.

Although the large hole in its chest did not continue to expand, its entire soul had become very dim, as if it would completely dissipate with a gust of wind.

At this moment, it lay on the ground, trembling, too weak to even run away.

I walked over and squatted down in front of the gentle breeze.

Sensing the lingering malevolent energy emanating from me, the wisp of wind trembled even more violently, its blurred face filled with terror.

I didn't make things difficult for it; I simply reached out my right hand, grabbed the scruff of its neck, and lifted it up.

Although this thing is injured, it still has more than ten years of cultivation. Keeping it might come in handy in the future.

Moreover, leaving a ghost on this construction site where there's clearly still work to be done might cause some trouble later.

Take it with you first, to avoid any further complications.

"Old Jin, come out, it's alright now."

I picked up the ghost in the long robe, turned around and shouted in the direction where Jin Wanliang was hiding, preparing to tell Li Qing to call it a day.

As soon as I finished speaking, Jin Wanliang's round head popped out from behind the excavator.

After confirming that he was safe, he breathed a long sigh of relief and walked out, patting his chest.

At the same time, hurried footsteps came from the direction of the construction site gate.

"Master Chen! Master Chen!"

Supported by two bodyguards, Boss Wang practically tumbled and crawled toward me.

His once-expensive suit was now covered in mud, and he looked utterly disheveled.

But at this moment, he clearly didn't care about his image anymore.

He ran up to me, so excited he was incoherent, his face filled with the ecstasy of surviving a disaster and a deep sense of awe.
