Chapter 496: Chapter 496: Majestic and Domineering!
Such a terrifying poison gas instantly enveloped Huang Xiaolong, making the blue-cloaked ghost, Yuan Weijie, believe that, despite the junior Taoist in front of him possessing divine abilities, there was absolutely no way he could survive!
Once the gas dispersed, even the corpse could not be found, it had been completely dissolved!
“Hmph! Mere insect trying to block a carriage!” Yuan Weijie sneered disdainfully. “However, the soul of this young Taoist could be useful. I could use it to offer a course on Taoist arts in my Ghost School. It would help the ghost students better understand Taoist arts, so they would not panic when they encounter Taoists in the future.”
Yuan Weijie was making his own calculations.
The shadowy figures in the main field, upon seeing how formidable Yuan Weijie was, began cheering enthusiastically. “Our Principal is wise! Our Principal is wise!”
Right at that moment!
Boom~~~!!!!!!!
A giant seal character suddenly burst out from within the poison gas! This seal character was imbued with an unparalleled Buddhahood, as well as Taoism. Buddhism is in essence Taoism, like the merging of the tiger and dragon, complete without any flaw!
The next second, golden light circulated on the seal character, a fire raged forth like a wildfire, it swept away the endless poison gas.
In the golden glow, a hint of mockery playing on the corner of Huang Xiaolong’s mouth, he nodded at Yuan Weijie. “Is this your trump card?”
“Too… disappointing.” Huang Xiaolong advanced towards Yuan Weijie like an ancient, invincible god of war.
“Wha…wha…” Yuan Weijie was panicked!
This overwhelming poison gas, powerful enough to poison hundreds, even thousands of beings, was ineffective against Huang Xiaolong!
“Damn it, I’ll risk it all with you!” Yuan Weijie, a battle-hardened fierce ghost, had clashed with several Taoists during his decade-long ghostly existence.
He was certain that the young man standing before him was the strongest opponent he had ever met since he became a ghost! They’re not even close!
Yuan Weijie was decisive, he instantly exploded with a large amount of Yin energy, enveloping Huang Xiaolong once again.
It wasn’t poison gas this time, but Yin energy.
Within this mass of Yin energy, numerous death texts were floating up and down.
In an instant, the scenery around Huang Xiaolong changed. He seemed to have arrived in a desolate mountainous region. The cold moon hung high, and there was a terrifying silence, with no one nor ghost in sight.
“Oh…Ghost Eye Cover? Hmm…This degree of Ghost Eye Cover is relatively strong. Even a Taoist with good mana would be trapped and find it hard to escape. They would eventually lose themselves in this Yin energy and never be able to return…” Huang Xiaolong chuckled.
It must be said that a blue-cloaked fierce ghost like Yuan Weijie was indeed far more powerful than the average fierce ghost, with numerous techniques at his disposal.
Unfortunately for Yuan Weijie, his opponent was Huang Xiaolong, the Yin Emperor, the Living King Yan!
His techniques, to Huang Xiaolong, were nothing but a tickle. Their only purpose was to bring some amusement to Huang Xiaolong’s otherwise mundane life.
In the blink of an eye, Huang Xiaolong lightly patted his canvas bag, and a total of 981 Five Emperors’ Coins flew out!
Each Five Emperors’ Coin was endowed with an unparalleled and strong golden halo, as well as a vast righteousness.
With a flash of golden light, the Yin energy was extinguished, and Yuan Weijie’s Ghost Eye Cover was shattered instantly, fragile like a soap bubble under the blazing sun.
Next, the Five Emperors’ Coins cascaded out like they had been endowed with life by Huang Xiaolong. Fluttering about, they came together in the air to form a copper sword!
The copper sword illuminated the whole world, with its awe-inspiring spiritual energy, and radiance rivalling the sun and the moon!
Whoosh~~~~~~~
The copper sword transformed into a dark light, striking directly at Yuan Weijie!
As the copper sword was slashing, it was like the flying sword that Immortals in fantasy novels would use, soaring in the sky, killing everything in its path.
Splat~~~~~!!!!!!!
The copper sword pierced right through Yuan Weijie’s heart.
“Ah~~~!” Yuan Weijie, with his ghost eyes wide open, displayed an incredulous expression. He pressed his right hand tightly against his heart, but thick black ghost blood kept oozing out through his fingers.
The next second, the copper sword disintegrated into 981 Five Emperors’ Coins, which all shot at Yuan Weijie’s ghost body.
Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom!
981 flames ignited on Yuan Weijie’s ghost body and in an instant, they burst into an all-consuming fire.
“Ah~~~!!! No! I was wrong! I was wrong! Ah~~~~~~ I quit being the principal, I was wrong, my lord, spare me…Ah~~~ I don’t want my soul to scatter!”
Yuan Weijie rolled on the ground, letting out heartrending screams and cries for mercy.
But his cries only lasted for a few breaths before they were abruptly cut short.
In no time, Yuan Weijie’s ghost body was burned to ashes. The ferocious blue-cloaked fierce ghost had its soul shattered!
Huang Xiaolong nonchalantly collected the eighty-one Five Emperor coins.
He turned around and saw the vast playground filled with kneeling spirits!
Whether they were ghost guests, ghost teachers, or ghost students, all of them knelt before Huang Xiaolong, their ghostly bodies shuddering, their ghostly eyes full of fear and despair.
Powerful!
Too powerful!
Slays the blue-clothed vengeful spirit as if slaughtering chickens!
The entire Binhai University campus became silent, so much so that one could hear a pin drop.
With a gust of wind, Huang Xiaolong’s robes rustled, his black hair fluttered, all vengeful spirits on the ground knelt in admiration. It was simply awe-inspiring, dominating everything under the sky!
If I were to become a Buddha, there would be no demons in the world; If I were to become a demon, even the Buddha would be helpless against me. When I ascend to heaven, everyone on the horizon will kneel before me!
“Phew… It’s over. From now on, this campus will be clean, and my wives can study and teach here in peace…” Huang Xiaolong’s mouth cracked into a sunny smile, cutting through the clouds.
Next, he took out the spirit cylinder and collected all the spirits haunting the campus!
The cold and ghostly energy lingering in every corner of the campus began to fade gradually.
Night had fallen and the moon wandered in the sky. Huang Xiaolong was intermittently accompanied by the sounds of cicadas, like a crisp and pleasant nocturne, composing the charming taste of the night.
Huang Xiaolong confidently strolled out of the campus, planning to go home and sleep.
Kill one every ten steps, a thousand miles without a trace. After accomplishing his task, he concealed his skills and fame!
…
He drove back to the villa by the sea.
Huang Xiaolong hadn’t been home for a while, and the place was quite dusty. He used a Cleaning Talisman to tidy up every room and corner. Once done, he hummed a little tune, took a shower, and went to sleep.
He slept till noon the next day, only to be woken up by a phone call.
The call was from Zhou Yuewen.
Huang Xiaolong picked up the phone. Zhou Yuewen asked tremblingly from the other end, “Master Long, did you…did you come to school last night to exorcise the evil spirits?”
“Yes, I did last night,” Huang Xiaolong replied casually.
“Uh…So…how did it go?” asked Zhou Yuewen.
“Done and dusted. As expected, Yuan Weijie’s ghost was causing havoc. But I’ve already slain it. From today, the school won’t be haunted, and no one will die. Everything will return to normal,” Huang Xiaolong replied cheerfully.
Zhou Yuewen let out a sigh of relief and thanked Huang Xiaolong profusely.
After ending the call with Zhou Yuewen, Huang Xiaolong’s phone rang again shortly.
This time, it was Lin Zicong.
Picking up the phone.
“Master, you’re back from Jiangnan City?” Lin Zicong’s voice was filled with surprise and a hard-to-describe sense of exhilaration.
“Yes, I just got back yesterday,” Huang Xiaolong replied with a smile.
“Master! You had actually infused a trace of True Qi into my body! I’ve been practicing it constantly! Now… I can actually control that True Qi proficiently, as if it were part of me! Master, according to the martial arts circle, I have reached the level of a ‘Half-Step Grandmaster’!”
It’s true; with Huang Xiaolong’s help, Lin Zicong had reached the status of Half-Step Grandmaster. Although he couldn’t emit True Qi to kill from a distance, he was able to imbue his fists and kicks with it, demonstrating the strength of thousands of pounds!
All this was Huang Xiaolong’s benevolence!
“Half-Step Grandmaster, huh? There’s nothing impressive about it. Better keep a low profile,” Huang Xiaolong advised with a chuckle.
“I know, I know, master, I’ve been keeping a low profile. Uh…Master, could you, perhaps, spare some time tonight, I’ve arranged something fun for you….” Lin Zicong asked eagerly.
Huang Xiaolong intended to refuse outrightly.
“Master, have you been to the Elysium Palace yet? Why don’t we visit it tonight?” Lin Zicong cautiously suggested.
Elysium Palace?
Weren’t Su Xiaoman and her brother, Su Xiaoqiang, taken there by somebody called “Minghui”?
