Li Xianyu saw the face of the woman in front of him. Her aura was cold and proud and her eyes were fierce. Her skin was fairer than snow, and she was tall and beautiful.

“Sister?” He opened his mouth and tried to shout, but he made a sound.

The woman stretched out her hand to him expressionlessly. When she was about to touch Li Xianyu, it was as if she had touched a red soldering iron and retracted her hand with a cry.

The national emblem hanging in front of Li Xianyu’s chest exuded a burning warmth. The higher the temperature of the national emblem, the more malicious a vengeful spirit was. It was so scalding that Li Xianyu’s consciousness slipped out from some kind of control. He shook, and his dazed gaze regained focus, and became clear.

At the same time, his eyes grew hot, and his spiritual eye opened under the stimulation. The “sister” in front of him had changed, her face quickly turned deathly pale, the kind that resembled dead pork. Her watery almond-shaped eyes became eyes with cataracts, her lips blue-ish green. She was donned in a red dress, her face ferocious. In the blink of an eye, his beautiful sister became a vengeful spirit donned in a red dress.

Σ(っ°Д°;)っ Li Xianyu was shocked and staggered back. In his consciousness, he had just had a dream that his sister had come to look for him. He just realized that it wasn’t a dream, but a vengeful spirit wanting to capture his soul.

But how could there be a vengeful spirit in the apartment, and why did it target him?

Is it because I’m handsome?

Confused, Li Xianyu did not stop, but turned his head and ran. After a few steps, someone grabbed onto his foot.

Familiar taste, familiar formula!

Li Xianyu’s face turned white. A child had grabbed onto his ankle. He squatted on the ground, hands wrapped around Li Xianyu’s feet. When Li Xianyu turned back, the child also raised his head. His eyes were two black holes on his deathly pale face, his eyes seem to have been gouged out forcefully.

“I got you.” The child grinned and his teeth were ghostly white.

Li Xianyu:(#ﾟДﾟ)

His scalp was numb, and he was about to call San Wu for help. A massive blood-red hand suddenly stretched out from the corridor on the nineteenth floor and enveloped him.

Like the palm of a giant grabbing Li Xianyu’s waist, it pulled him out of the porch on the eighteenth floor. Li Xianyu flew up like he was riding a cloud. In his sight, the distant lights flashed before his eyes, and when he landed, he found himself standing on the top floor of the apartment.

The night sky was vast and far away, the lights shimmered at the end of his line of sight.

A few meters behind him, an old man and a young man stood. The young man dragged a bronze tripod in his hand and looked at him with burning eyes. The old man had a knife scar on his left eye that destroyed his eye, and his remaining right eye squinted and gazed at Li Xianyu.

The massive hand disintegrated into hundreds of vengeful spirits, falling behind the young man, apparently under his control. They looked at Li Xianyu, with their cataract eyes.

Standing on the edge of the roof, Li Xianyu trembled and asked, “Who… who are you?”

He was afraid of heights and stood on the edge of the roof with his heart pounding, but he dared not take a step inside.

Shen Meng did not answer, looked at him carefully for a moment, and said in disdain, “This generation’s Li family descendant is really an imbecile with no foundation.”

The one-eye old man said, “After Li Wuxiang died, the Unparalleled War Spirit was sealed in the Black Water Spirit Bead. This boy has been supervised and protected by the Buddha Society ever since childhood, and has never come into contact with the demon descendants community. A few days ago, news came from the secret post placed here in Shanghai by the clan, that the Unparalleled War Spirit had returned to the world. The Li family is unlucky and happened to run into the emergence of the Great Deities Palace. Otherwise, after more than ten or twenty years, the demon descendants community is bound to have another rising star that would be difficult to deal with.”

Shen Meng opened his right hand and as the air circulated, he sucked Li Xianyu over to his palm and strangled him by the neck. “So this is the best opportunity for us. As long as we have him in our hands, the Unparalleled War Spirit will be under our control.”

“Are you doing this for what my dead father brought out of the Great Deities Palace, or is it for the Great Deities Palace’s address?” Li Xianyu asked carefully.

Shen Meng saw fear in the young man’s eyes, like a little elk knocked down by a tiger, with caution in his timidity.

Indeed, he was a useless ordinary person.

Shen Meng smirked, “So what if I want the item, and so what if I want the address?”

Li Xianyu looked weak, “My annoying father died early. I don’t know anything and I didn’t get anything. But my Great-Grandma is different. She’s clear about what happened. I asked her in the evening, but she just didn’t tell me.”

His mind turned sharply, whether he could survive or not, was dependent on if he could lead them downstairs. As long as San Wu realized, he would be saved.

Great-Grandma had just finished saying, “How many eyes are staring at you,” and the next minute he was forcibly taken captive of.

Such a familiar sense of déjà vu. This was what happened in Qingqing’s attempt to have sex with him.

Great-Grandma truly saw what was coming and jinxed many things.

Shen Meng smiled coldly and said, “Since I don’t know what to do with you, I might as well feed you to my vengeful spirits.”

Li Xianyu cursed secretly, Why capture me if I’m useless?

He displayed a look of fear on his face and a begging gaze.

Showing his weak side to the enemy was the basic skill of saving one’s life. People who are too outstanding and charge out usually don’t survive three episodes, especially those who don’t have the strength and charge out.

In just ten seconds of dialogue, Li Xianyu feigned weakness to convince the other to let down his guard. H also got some useful information. This young man who was disdainful enough to not even bother to introduce himself, was coming for the Great Deities Palace. Whether it’s the location of the Great Deities Palace or what Dad had brought out, at least he had come with some kind of desire.

As long as it was not a vendetta, he will be safe for the time being.

There is no third possibility. The other party either wants to torture useful information out from him, or to capture him and threaten Great-Grandma.

Li Xianyu was thinking about how to deal with it. First, he could lure them downstairs to find Great-Grandma. If it failed, he had to think about other ways, at least not to be killed.

But he really underestimated the disdainful young man’s malice. Shen Meng smiled and said, “You still have some value. I can’t kill you for the time being, but your father started a massacre many years ago. I lost a lot of Shen family members in his hands. It’s only fair that I should charge some interest. Anyway, as long as you live, a prisoner without legs will not escape from the palm of my hand.”

Li Xianyu’s heart sank.

The old man with one eye watched coldly. He came out with Shen Meng at the behest of the family to escort the young Third Master. The Third Master’s task was clearly to seize the Li family descendant to intimidate the Unparalleled War Spirit, but in fact it was to test the reaction of Baoze and all parties.

However, the Third Master does not know the real intention of the elders, he has always felt that his task was to bring back the Li family descendant.

Shen Meng turned around and jokingly said, “I, Third Master am merciful and will give you a chance. If you kneel down and kowtow 9 times, I won’t hurt you. Uncle Yuan, take a video for me on my cell phone so I can go back and show off.”

The one-eyed old man said with a smile, “Third Master’s reputation is bound to soar.”

The corners of Li Xianyu’s mouth twitched. “Big guy, can we do something else?”

Shen Meng threw Li Xianyu on the ground, stepped his left foot out and laughed, “Alright, lick my shoe clean.”

Li Xianyu looked uncertain. As the young man in front of him said, he said he could spare his life but didn’t say he won’t hurt him. The boundaries were too broad. He could slice him down into a human rod and that’s leaving him alive.

He wanted to bullshit, curry favour or something, but when he looked into the eyes of the young man and saw cruelty and murderous intent, Li Xianyu knew that any language was powerless.

Cold sweat began to drip down his forehead. He was essentially an ordinary man, and had never encountered such an experience.

Shen Meng seemed to enjoy this pleasure of intimidating Li Xianyu, and did not rush. He waited for Li Xianyu’s choice with a sneer on his face.
