Facing the direct impact of the rainbow beam, it not only wasn't burned through, but it also scattered the rainbow beam into several smaller beams, which glided past the umbrella and flew behind the bridge princess.

After a while, the energy of the magic circle seemed to have been completely depleted, and the rainbow beam of light rapidly shrank until it disappeared, but it still failed to pierce the paper umbrella in Qiao Ji's hand.

As the light faded, everyone could finally see clearly.

On the surface of that paper umbrella, countless thumb-sized faces appeared, wailing incessantly. A rough count revealed no fewer than a thousand people!

Everyone's expression changed slightly.

The legend of the Bridge Princess, and those endless arms, undoubtedly refer to these faces as those who were killed by the Bridge Princess and whose souls were imprisoned—the unjustly dead!

With the spell broken, the Onmyoji on the bridge turned deathly pale and turned to run away.

However, he wasn't as foolish as that bald guy, so he ran back.

Princess Hashihime remained standing in the very center of the bridge, her smile seemingly growing even colder.

Just as the Onmyoji was about to escape back to the shore.

Countless arms surged out from under the bridge and grabbed him.

A blue light suddenly shone on his body, completely protecting him.

The moment her arm touched his body, it burst into flames.

There were just so many arms, it seemed endless.

Soon, a faint "pop!" was heard, and a jade pendant at the Onmyoji's waist broke in two, the light shield vanishing instantly.

The Onmyoji was immediately grabbed by the arm.

Endless arms grabbed his head, body, arms, legs...

Every part of the Onmyoji's body that he could grab was gripped by pale arms, as if countless giant leeches were clinging to him.

"No! Let me go! Let me go now!"

The Onmyoji shouted, but it quickly turned into a scream of agony.

"what!!"

Countless bloodstains suddenly appeared on his body, and then, in full view of everyone, he was torn to pieces by countless arms!

The scene was extremely bloody and horrific!

The crowd fell silent.

Suddenly, Princess Hashi looked up.

A ninja was hanging on a kite in the sky, silently drifting towards the opposite bank.

He seemed to be trying to take advantage of the fact that the Princess's attention was focused on the Onmyoji to carry out a covert operation.

Chapter 327 Pretending Not to See

Qiao Ji's expression seemed unchanged, but the chill emanating from her body intensified.

She suddenly raised the paper umbrella in her hand and pointed the umbrella side at the ninja on the kite.

Hey!

Countless wronged souls surged from the umbrella, turning into a gray wave that rushed towards the cunning ninja.

The ninja flew through the air, seemingly with no way to avoid it.

However, those who made it this far are all experts. According to the ninja ranking system, he is at least a Jonin.

Suddenly, the ninja used his waist and abdomen to twist his body and kicked off the kite.

Perhaps due to a special technique, the soft kite gave him a tremendous thrust, propelling him forward like a spinning top, and he suddenly found himself in the air above the opposite bank of the river.

No one noticed that Qiao Ji's face, partially obscured by the paper umbrella, revealed a cold smile that seemed to exude both murderous intent and mockery.

Suddenly, a large amount of purplish-black demonic energy emanated from Qiao Ji's body.

Riding on this burst of demonic energy, the number of wronged souls released by the paper umbrella suddenly increased more than threefold!

A massive number of wronged souls gathered together, transforming into a giant gray, misty python. With a powerful twist in mid-air, it viciously bit down on the self-righteous ninja.

Having lost their footing, the ninja had nowhere to escape.

He struggled to form hand seals, seemingly wanting to use the Substitution Jutsu.

However, the immense resentment directly disrupted the surrounding space.

His substitution technique failed?!

The gray python swallowed him whole in one gulp.

"what!!"

A shrill scream immediately came from inside the giant python.

Soon, all the wronged souls were collected into the paper umbrella.

Pfft!

A shriveled, twisted corpse fell from the sky and landed right on the opposite bank of the bridge.

The figure dressed in white, holding a white paper umbrella, stood quietly in the center of the arched bridge, looking down at the crowd below. None of the elite troops dared to meet her gaze.

Absolutely domineering!

The onlookers fell silent.

Many people secretly put away the paper talismans, shurikens, pistols, and other items they were holding.

Just then, a figure stepped out from the crowd, met Qiao Ji's cold gaze, and slowly walked towards the bridge.

Everyone immediately stared at the person's back as if they were looking at a fool.

That 'fool' was none other than Xu Ming!

Xu Ming, accompanied by his shikigami, swaggered onto the bridge with an arrogant air.

Disdain, ridicule, mockery, contempt... all sorts of malicious gazes were directed at Xu Ming.

The people at the bridgehead began to whisper among themselves.

"Is that guy scared out of his wits?"

"Hashihime is clearly enraged. If she goes onto the bridge now, she will definitely be attacked most fiercely."

"How long do you think that kid can last?"

"I think it will last at most 10 seconds."

"Ten seconds? That's too much, I'll bet five seconds!"

Unmoved by these malicious remarks, Xu Ming walked directly onto the bridge.

Princess Qiao seemed to be completely enraged by his actions. The waves below the bridge churned, and countless pale arms climbed up the wooden bridge and surged toward the bridge surface.

She herself even raised the paper umbrella, pointing the terrifying umbrella surface directly at Xu Ming.

On the umbrella, the face of the wronged spirit twisted and wailed, poised to strike.

Xu Ming certainly wouldn't sit idly by and wait for his death. He slowly gripped the cross on his chest with one hand and raised his phone with the other.

Just as Xu Ming was about to launch the first attack.

Princess Hashihime's nose twitched slightly, a movement so subtle that it went unnoticed.

Qiao Ji's face suddenly stiffened, and her expression changed slightly, which was rare for her.

She suddenly raised her head and carefully examined Xu Ming, her eyes filled with vigilance and apprehension.

Then she suddenly did something that no one expected.

She simply put down her paper umbrella, turned around, faced the outside of the bridge, and struck a pose that said, "Cross over if you want."

The arms that had surged up quickly returned to the water.

This anticlimactic turn of events left everyone baffled.

Xu Ming was also puzzled until he inadvertently glanced at the diamond ring on his left ring finger.

Since the other party had adopted a magnanimous attitude, Xu Ming didn't stand on ceremony and walked directly across the bridge to the other side of the river.

The bridge was narrow, and the two people almost brushed past each other.

Xu Ming remained vigilant throughout, his hands never leaving the cross and his phone.

However, Princess Hashihime seemed to be genuinely wary of something and did not launch an attack on him.

Xu Ming easily reached the other side of the river.

The crowd on the other side of the bridge immediately erupted in an uproar.

"That kid actually went?!"

Why didn't Princess Hashihime attack him?

"Is it because this kid is too handsome that Qiao Ji can't bear to touch him?"

"That damn pretty boy!"

Suddenly, a samurai stepped out from the crowd.

"That kid is too weird, don't go with him and get yourself killed!"

His companions tried to persuade him.

The samurai waved his hand.

"If that kid can get through, and I'm even more handsome than him, why can't I?"

Having said that, this samurai, brimming with confidence, strode confidently toward Princess Hashihime with the air of a model walking a catwalk...

Five seconds later, a mutilated body was thrown off the bridge.

Everyone was speechless for a moment.

He charged forward full of confidence, but his attempt to show off backfired and he ended up getting... you know.

Are you kidding me?

Using his own life to make a joke, that's over the top.
