Chapter 175: Chapter 175: Essence Blood Enters the Body, The Paper Person Has Gone Mad, Do You Want to Create a Monster?
In that instant!
BANG! BANG! BANG!
A series of violent shattering sounds rose and fell!
Over ten thousand fuel-filled Incendiary Bottles!
They were hurled with all their might at the house, which was already engulfed in a raging inferno!
Hot winds carrying ash billowed out. The charred doorframe collapsed with a crash, sending sparks flying everywhere. Painful wails echoed from within the burning house, chilling all who heard them to the bone!
At that moment!
Thick smoke swirled upward, carrying embers with it!
It stained the entire sky a bizarre scarlet!
Even though it was still raining.
The searing glow of the fire!
It could be seen from any corner of the ghost city!
"AHHHHHH!!!"
"Damn traitors, damn you all!"
"You lied to me, you all lied to me!!!"
Hearing the blood-red paper man’s shrill screams!
Si Qin couldn’t help but feel a little sympathy.
The word ’miserable’ wasn’t enough to describe him!
But just then.
"—BOOM!!!"
A massive explosion rang out!
Mr. Luo’s eyes narrowed instantly. "This is bad. The seal has been broken!"
Immediately,
like a volcanic eruption!
A scarlet paper man leaped from the tongues of fire!
Flames streamed across its body. Its painted eyes were filled with pain and madness!
The flames from the ghost matches were still searing its body, making a sound like tearing fabric!
"I want you all to die!!!"
He shrieked.
His twisted, hateful voice carried for a kilometer.
At this moment, Xiaoye had not yet returned to normal!
As the burning, blood-red paper man roared, Xiaoye was controlled!
It instantly transformed into a stream of light and merged into his body!
"Sister!" Xiaoying cried out in alarm.
It was like dropping a brick into a calm pond!
A terrifying aura exploded from the burning paper man’s body!
An aura like that!
It was far more terrifying than any ghost Yun Zhenyue had ever seen!
"This is... a true high-level Evil Star."
Mr. Luo’s expression was grim.
’Thankfully, Luo Huan has already been moved outside the city.’
’Otherwise, my first priority right now would absolutely be to protect my daughter.’
"And he’s gone mad. Using his power so recklessly... I fear he’s planning to take us all down with him."
Si Qin also frowned deeply.
’We tried so hard to weaken him, yet he can still unleash this much power?’
’This paper man is truly terrifying.’
Even though there were seven Evil Stars in the ghost city, none were stronger than him.
If he really decided on a scorched-earth approach,
there was truly no one in this ghost city who could stop him.
Even if all of them attacked together,
they couldn’t guarantee the City Lord’s safety.
But upon seeing this, Yun Zhenyue just sighed.
She took the little paper effigy, her adopted daughter, out of her pocket.
She could feel its reliance on her.
’I originally didn’t want to use Gu Yuan’s blood on her.’
’I was afraid there would be side effects.’
’But now, I have no choice, do I?’
Yun Zhenyue immediately took out a blood collection tube, gently stroked the little paper effigy’s neck, and then fed all nine drops of blood to it.
DRIP~
DRIP...
The little paper effigy seemed to love drinking this blood.
After finishing the nine drops, it still wanted more.
It licked the tube clean, getting every last taste!
Finally, it simply crunched the entire tube to pieces and swallowed it whole.
Yun Zhenyue could sense it.
A joyful emotion emanated from the little paper effigy’s heart.
The blood-red paper man, still wreathed in flames, also saw this scene.
It was mainly because the blood’s allure to ghosts was too great!
A single glance was enough to be completely captivated.
Even in his rage and agony, he couldn’t help but pause.
"You... How dare you!!!"
"You bastard, are you insane?! That’s a criminal waste of a heavenly treasure!"
Its flickering red eyes were filled with painted-on, bloodshot veins!
The blood-red paper man’s heart ached!
The blood he craved!
All of it was fed to that little paper effigy.
A single drop was enough to allow an Evil Star to break through to the next level!
And this was nine drops!
’That crazy woman!’
’Is she trying to create a monster?’
...
Not only that.
Yun Zhenyue also took Mengmeng’s clothes out from the ghost painting.
The top-tier Calamity Star Ghost Artifact she had never been willing to use!
The [Ghost Dream Flower Robe]!
It could convert yin energy into pure Healing Power.
As long as the damage wasn’t fatal, any injury could be self-repaired!
The little paper effigy instantly grew, becoming identical to Yun Zhenyue.
Yun Zhenyue handed over the clothes.
"Put this on."
"Mhm!"
The paper effigy gently took it, and the robe flowed like water, dressing her automatically.
A blood-red, cross-collared robe fluttered in the hot wind, its sleeves shimmering with a moon-like halo.
The slight upward tilt at the corners of her eyes added a hint of liveliness to her cool demeanor, while lashes like a butterfly’s antennae cast faint shadows on her jade-like skin.
Like a fairy from a myth.
To be admired only from a distance.
The little paper effigy loved the outfit.
She spun around, her skirt twirling.
This scene,
left every ghost present completely stunned!
Such charm.
It was enough to transcend any age, gender, or even species!
Just looking at her was enough to make one’s heart feel joy!
Yun Zhenyue smiled as well.
’Now this is really like raising a daughter.’
’I even get to play dress-up.’
’It’s just that this daughter looks exactly like me.’
...
Seeing this,
the viewers in Dragon Country were staring, their eyes wide!
In truth, Yun Zhenyue had always been beautiful!
How else could she have been named the campus belle?
But they’d seen her so much they were starting to get used to it.
But now, seeing the little paper effigy who looked just like her wearing this outfit!
It hit everyone right in the feels!
Her charm stat was maxed out!
MAX!!!
[Holy crap, is she really raising a daughter now?]
[So beautiful. I’m a girl, but I think I’m about to be turned.]
[Just got here, why are there two Yun Zhenyues? Is my internet lagging?]
[Hold on, show that paper man some respect! This is a battle, be serious!]
[Serious about what? She fed it nine drops of Boss Gu Yuan’s essence blood. You think she’s afraid of him?]
...
At this moment,
seeing Yun Zhenyue changing her paper effigy’s clothes at a time like this!
The blood-red paper man was furious!
He felt completely ignored!
How dare she?
’Using my power, the paper effigy I created!’
’To protect herself?’
The resentment in his mind made the blood-red paper man abandon all reason!
He ignored the raging flames burning on his body!
And immediately charged toward Yun Zhenyue!
"Damn lackey!"
"You’re a traitor too! You’re all traitors!!!"
With a gust of hot wind streaking through the night sky,
the blood-red paper man appeared before Yun Zhenyue in the blink of an eye!
He was so fast that no one present had time to react!
"City Lord, watch out!"
Si Qin gritted her teeth, instantly preparing to block the attack with her own body!
But someone was faster!
The adopted daughter, the little paper effigy, furrowed her brow slightly.
"Don’t bully my mom!"
Her cool voice rang out!
Her figure appeared like a phantom in front of Yun Zhenyue.
She then swung her sleeve, positioning her elbow precisely in the blood-red paper man’s path!
—An elbow strike!!!
Her elbow hit like a Mack truck!
As the blood-red paper man’s figure suddenly descended,
before he could even threaten Yun Zhenyue,
he was met with an elbow directly to his neck!
A sharp CRACK was heard!
"PFFT!!!"
The blood-red paper man was instantly, heavily injured, spitting out red paper!
He was shot back the way he came, like a meteor!
All the ghosts present watched this scene in disbelief.
This...
That blood-red paper man was a high-level Evil Star!
And he was sent flying by a single elbow strike?
’Is this something Yun Zhenyue taught her?’
’What a brutal child!’
’Don’t tell me Yun Zhenyue secretly practices elbow strikes in her spare time?’
