"You're the one who's been causing all those women who've gone missing in town lately, aren't you? You shady characters, daring to run wild on my Ma Family's turf, you're asking for trouble."
Ma Yiheng looked at Xiu Sihai, his eyes now completely open with murderous intent.
"Who do you think you are, minding your own business? I can't be bothered with you!"
Upon hearing Ma Yiheng's words, Xiu Sihai snorted coldly and turned to run away.
He had used up a lot of his power to create animals that turned people into sheep, so he couldn't confront Ma Yiheng head-on.
If a fight breaks out, he will most likely lose.
Therefore, Xiu Sihai made the decisive choice to follow his heart.
"Trying to run? Did you even ask me?"
Seeing Xiu Sihai flee, Ma Yiheng immediately gave chase.
As for the woman who was captured, who had time to care about her?
"What a waste! Such a beautiful girl, just left here unattended? It would be fine if she ran into a thug or something, but what if she's Beast?"
Watching the two figures disappear into the distance, Xu Long sighed.
The world is going to the dogs, and people's hearts are no longer what they used to be!
If it weren't for Xu Long, she might have been ruined!
This woman was beautiful and had a great figure. Plus, Xu Long hadn't had sex in months, so...
So he tidied the woman's clothes and then sat by candlelight waiting for her to wake up.
While it's true that no man is immune to lust, there's a limit to it. Falling in love with every woman you meet is fine, but sleeping with every single one is absolutely unacceptable.
Xu Long has lived two lives, and he has only ever had two women: Haitang and Xu Jiao.
Furthermore, he didn't force these two women upon them; he was forced into it.
Haitang was poisoned by three villains, and Xu Long had to take her virginity in order to save her.
Haitang wasn't at a disadvantage either, because she was Xu Long's first woman.
Xu Jiao's situation was unexpected; no one could have predicted that her biological sister would become her god-sister.
Now, one of the women has become a little girl, and the other wants to live a normal life.
Despite enduring loneliness for so long, Xu Long still chooses to stay true to himself.
Time flew by, and more than two hours had passed in the blink of an eye.
Ma Yiheng, having failed to track down Xiu Sihai, returned and was stunned when he saw Xu Long.
Who are you? What are you doing here?
Ma Yiheng glanced at the woman on the ground and immediately breathed a sigh of relief.
If a woman loses her virginity due to one's own negligence, then the sin would be immense.
"My name is Lai Xiaohua. I came out looking for excitement. I heard some noise over here, so I came to check it out."
Xu Long's cheerful explanation caused Ma Yiheng's expression to change drastically.
"Looking for thrills at night? Are you out of your mind? Do you even know where this place is? It's a place where ghosts gather, and every night a Legion of spirits wander around."
Ma Yiheng snorted coldly, then seemed to suddenly remember something.
"Wait, you said your name is Lai Xiaohua?"
"Yes."
"This is fucking..."
Ma Yiheng cursed under his breath, feeling utterly utterly pissed off.
After searching high and low, I never expected to find the real person in this godforsaken place.
"My name is Ma Yiheng. My father once received a favor from Master Lai, which is why he sent me to save your life. To put it simply, this year the Grand Duke Jupiter is in your palace, bringing three calamities. Your Ding Fire is weak, and great misfortune is imminent. You will be extremely unlucky for the next six months, and it will be the kind of unlucky that makes you prone to encountering evil spirits."
Ma Yiheng explained the whole story.
"Bad luck? Encountering evil spirits?"
Upon hearing Ma Yiheng's words, Xu Long immediately feigned surprise.
"So what if I'm unlucky? You're here for me!"
"I want to save you, but recently a charlatan has been harming people in town, and I have to deal with him first."
Ma Yiheng snorted and said.
"That's easy. You teach me some spells, and I'll be able to protect myself. You won't need to worry about me then. Oh, and by the way, you'd better teach me your most treasured spells."
Xu Long tentatively suggested.
Ma Yiheng's strength was average, but he was very interested in the spell called "Three Incense Sticks".
The so-called "Three Incense Sticks" refers to three types of masters who can be invited to help.
"Please look up" means to ask the gods to descend to earth and help.
Please turn back; this is to invite the wild immortal's ancestral home and support.
To invite downwards is to invite the Underworld soldiers.
Needless to say, the wild spirits of this family are foxes, weasels, and other sinister and ghostly creatures.
What Xu Long wanted were the so-called gods and ghost soldiers.
As mentioned before, there are three categories of gods.
Gods were conceived and born from Hundun at the beginning of the world, and each one is unique.
Figures like Zhu Jiuyin, Dragon God of Leize, Yinglong, Hanba are all deities.
Deities are spirits who manifest themselves in human form or are conceived from acquired spiritual energy.
Elements such as the Essences of the Five Elements and the bloodline of the divine race belong to this category.
The final deity is born from the beliefs of humans or other intelligent life forms.
Unlike gods and deities, deities are beings that truly come into existence from nothing.
Xu Long suspected that the gods and ghost soldiers summoned by burning Three Incense Sticks belonged to this category.
After all, the level of gods is too high, and each one has the power to destroy the world.
And since gods are of divine blood, their power should be ridiculously strong.
Only gods, their power depends entirely on the number of believers and the steadfastness of their faith.
Given the level of this world, the probability of gods and deities existing is practically zero.
"Teach me some magic? That's not impossible, but can you even learn it? Magic isn't something you can use easily; you might just die from it."
Ma Yiheng sized Xu Long up and down, but with the disguise of the Main God, he naturally couldn't see through his disguise.
But even though you can't tell, there's still a strange feeling.
"Since that's the case, I'll teach you a move."
Ma Yiheng pulled a small booklet from his pocket and handed it to Xu Long. "Memorize what's inside, then burn it. I'm going to continue pursuing that unorthodox sect. Take care of yourself."
After saying this, Ma Yiheng turned and left.
Watching that receding figure, Xu Long stood motionless.
About thirty seconds later, Xu Long opened his mouth and suddenly spat out a mouthful of blood, his whole body becoming weak.
In order to obtain the cultivation method for these Three Incense Sticks, Xu Long used Curse Speech Technique.
The Three Incense Sticks is the most powerful magic of the Ma Family, and it will never be passed on to outsiders except for descendants of the Ma family.
What Xu Long wanted meant making enemies of the entire Ma Family, so it was only natural that he would suffer a backlash and be injured.
Fortunately, this spell didn't involve those so-called gods and ghost soldiers, otherwise it wouldn't have been as simple as just getting injured.
With a wave of his hand, Xu Long wiped the blood off the ground, picked up the unconscious woman from the haystack, and ran towards the Rice Bucket.
When they found the Rice Bucket, it was playing with Zhang Buhui and his two unlucky friends.
A giant wolf carrying a white-stockinged loli, and three young masters who were so terrified they wet themselves—the scene was too beautiful to bear.
"Let's go home!"
Ignoring Zhang Buhui and his group, Xu Long mounted the wolf and leaped away, leaving only his dashing figure gradually blurring in their eyes.
