Chapter 153 Shangguan Peiyu's Escape

At this moment, the basement was finally less crowded and much quieter, leaving only Yu Xiaoluo and Yu Liang, who was holding up a camera and filming very professionally.

The others were watching from behind.

"What about the ghost you kept? Did you eat it too?" Yu Xiaoluo asked with a grin. "Was it tasty? How did it taste? Sweet or salty?"

Yu Liang chimed in, "No, no, ghosts have rotten skin, rotten flesh, and rotten bones. How could they possibly taste good?"

"That's a corpse, not a ghost!"

"If corpses smell so bad, how can ghosts smell good?"

Yu Xiaoluo thought her third brother made a lot of sense, and gave him a thumbs up. "My third brother is getting smarter and smarter. Whoever takes a liking to my third brother, I'll ask him to go on a blind date after I've completed my mission."

Yu Liang was also dumbfounded. Wasn't this a live broadcast criticizing Shangguan Peiyu? How did it turn into a matchmaking ad for me? This is completely off-topic.

However, the live stream audience burst into laughter.

[Master Yu is so cute! He actually helped Yu Liang advertise. I'm the first to sign up, no one can take him from me.]

[Upstairs, are you sure you're a girl? Liangzai is straight.]

[I'm signing up! I'm signing up! As long as I can become sisters-in-law with Master Yu, I'll marry her even if her brother is blind!]

Hey Luo Luo, do you have a younger sister or older sister? I just want to be related to you!

Wait, what does the master mean by "perfecting one's merits"?

[This is a bit technical, I'm not quite sure. It seems to be a term used only by their masters, probably referring to accumulating enough merit?]

Who cares? Let's just watch the show.

...

Shangguan Peiyu was so angry she was practically spitting fire. "Yu Xiaoluo, you bitch, you're always going against me. Today, it's either you or me who dies!"

After she finished speaking, her aura surged once again, and her eyes turned bloodshot.

Indeed, her cultivation level is now vastly different from before; she's completely transformed. However, Yu Xiaoluo doesn't take her seriously at all.

"You think you're worthy to fight me, Shangguan Peiyu?"

Yes, even if she is impatient for quick success and has embarked on the path of ghost cultivation, compared to my thousand years of cultivation, aren't you overestimating yourself?

Shangguan Peiyu sneered, not to be outdone, "Whether we're a good match or not, we'll only know after we try."

Without further ado, let's get started. Little did she know that not only was her cultivation level rising rapidly, but Yu Xiaoluo's cultivation level was also rising quickly.

Because the system finally rewarded her for saving Lord Tang, Madam Tang, and Lord Tang's secretary: "[Complete 3 good deeds, accumulate 50 good deeds points, increase function points by 20, and accumulate 152 merit points. When the good deeds points reach 50 and the merit points reach 150, strengthen your physical body once.]"

Just then, Yu Xiaoluo's whole body flashed with golden light, and she seemed to have been reborn, raising her cultivation level to a new realm.

Ah, 50 good deeds are worth it. Almost there, almost there. At this rate, I estimate I'll ascend to immortality in less than a year. You dare challenge me, someone from my sect who's about to ascend to immortality?

Haha, Yu Xiaoluo is about to burst out laughing.

“Okay, come on, come on.” Yu Xiaoluo beckoned to Shangguan Peiyu with her finger.

Seeing Yu Xiaoluo's provocation, Shangguan Peiyu didn't hold back and simultaneously unleashed ten purple talismans, surrounding Yu Xiaoluo.

"Yu Xiaoluo, I'll annihilate your soul and see if you can still laugh then!"

"Is that all? What else is there? Release it all, dear."

Yu Xiaoluo chatted and laughed, seemingly unaffected. Shangguan Peiyu continued to unleash his power, and the circle formed by the ten purple talismans gradually shrank, as if slowly squeezing Yu Xiaoluo into powder.

Just as the talisman was about to reach Yu Xiaoluo, she leaped out of the air with ease.

Shangguan Peiyu was shocked. This—this is impossible, it's not scientific!

The formation she had used to trap Yu Xiaoluo had no effect on her whatsoever, even though it had used ninety percent of her power. Shangguan Peiyu was completely dumbfounded.

At the same time, a chill ran through her. Was Yu Xiaoluo really that strong? Even stronger than she had imagined.

No, this must be an accident!

She bit her tongue and smeared the blood onto the Soul-Chasing Blade, a small knife that looked like a dagger and was also an ancient artifact passed down from her grandfather.

As soon as the Soul-Chasing Blade was unleashed, countless sharp blades followed Yu Xiaoluo, relentlessly pursuing her.

Yu Xiaolu frowned slightly; this guy did have some ability.

It seems he has indeed made some progress and can now wield the Soul-Chasing Blade.

This scene made Yu Liang break out in a cold sweat. "Luo Luo, be careful!"

Viewers in front of their screens held their breath, not daring to blink, for fear of missing any crucial details.

As countless throwing knives chased after Yu Xiaoluo, she dodged for a while, but it seemed she couldn't escape any longer. Everyone held their breath for her, but then a crisp sound rang out, and a steel coin accurately struck the Soul-Chasing Blade! With a clang, the Soul-Chasing Blade and the steel coin fell to the ground at the same time.

Then, the phantom images of countless flying knives disappeared.

At this moment, it was Shangguan Peiyu who was sweating profusely, not everyone else.

She felt a chill run down her spine, her heart turned ice-cold. Yu Xiaoluo was truly strong; even this couldn't kill her. She was no match for Yu Xiaoluo at all. If Yu Xiaoluo retaliated, she would surely die.

She was much calmer than before, and her ability to react was also much stronger. She made a quick decision and suddenly threw a cloud of smoke at Yu Xiaoluo.

Instantly, the entire room was filled with smoke, and Yu Xiaoluo instinctively covered her mouth and nose.

No one knew what was going on. Fearing something might happen to Yu Xiaoluo, they shouted her name. Yu Xiaoluo didn't want to speak, afraid of inhaling the smoke. Regardless of whether it was poisonous or not, it was definitely dirty.

She's a very clean person.

When the smoke cleared, Shangguan Peiyu had vanished without a trace.

What era are we living in? They're still playing these tricks, and they still work so well. They just disappear like that.

Yu Xiaolu was momentarily dazed and speechless, because in her previous life, this was a trick she often used. However, she had long forgotten this skill because it was too outdated. She never expected that Shangguan Peiyu would use it so well.

"Everyone search, search thoroughly. Five people stay here to search, the rest of you search outside!"

Yes, everyone's crammed into the basement; it's suffocating.

So everyone split up and acted in batches. People from the metaphysical families and the police officers all worked together, and it was definitely a raid.

The basement contained the most items, some of which appeared to be belongings of missing persons, and others were bottles and jars containing dismembered limbs and some disgusting dark brown slime.

The camera panned across the screen, and netizens were almost disgusted by what they saw.

At this moment, a strangely shaped wooden puppet caught Yu Liang's attention. "Luo Luo, take a look, what is that?"
