"Erm… Ugh…"
Both of the guards collapsed before they even knew what happened. Chen slowly walked out of the dark.
*Woof!*
*Woof!*
*Woof!*
The hound kept on barking at Chen. It wanted to jump and attack Chen. However, the hound collapsed as well when it breathed in the white powder that still puffed up in the air.
"Haha… I can't believe this basic powdered form roofie is so effective against them! This is so cool!" Chen grinned and walked towards the door. However, Chen did inhale some of the white powder as well. It was alright for Chen because he had the Seven Treasury Fragrant Pouch with him. Low-leveled poisons like this could be totally nullified.
Chen held some of the powder in his hand. He tossed it at two more guards when he reached the front gate. Finally, he sneaked inside the premise. Chen then activated his Golden Gaze Fiery Eye. All the walls became transparent in his eyes. Chen sneaked into the mansion carefully after making sure that the coast was clear.
Initially, he had planned to check out every single room in the mansion. He saw Wen Tiandou sleeping in his father's room.
"What an animal! There's absolutely no remorse from him after killing his sibling and father! How dare he sleep inside his father's room! He should be condemned to hell!"
Chen was getting angrier. He took a handful of powdered form roofie before he entered the room. He intended to knock him out and kill him afterward! The poison would only knock him out, not kill him. Thus, merit points would not be deducted from Chen.
All of a sudden, Chen heard a series of light footsteps approaching him. He was startled. Then, he quickly hid inside the toilet. Through the Golden Gaze Fiery Eye, Chen saw a woman approaching the room. Judging from her attire, she should be one of the Wen family's maids. However, her movements were rather strange. She walked like a zombie in one of those zombie movies. She had a knife in her hand.
"What the hell is going on?!" Chen was shocked. Then, he went into hyperfocus mode to try to figure out what was happening.
Chen saw a blue phantom shadow behind the maid. The spirit was similar to the one that possessed Lan's grandma. Her hair was so messy. Her face was filled with hatred. A deathly aura was all over the spirit. This maid had definitely been possessed by an evil spirit!
Ding!
[Low-level evil spirit. Paragon level:****. Form: Spirit. Combat power: 100]
Chen's Netherspirit Battlescouter did a quick analysis on the evil spirit.
"This evil spirit's combat power is so damn low! I think she had just turned into an evil spirit not too long ago. What is she trying to do?" Chen opened his eyes wide. Through Golden Gaze Fiery Eyes, Chen noted down every single movement made by the evil spirit. Then, he saw the possessed maid opening the door with her stiff hands really slowly. She walked towards Wen Tiandou's bed, step by step.
After that, under the control of the evil spirit, she lifted up the knife in her hands and aimed it at Wen's head. She was getting ready to chop off his head!
"Oh my god! That evil spirit is going to kill Wen Tiandou!" Chen did not even blink his eyes. He did not want to miss this.
That was what I called Karma, bitch!
Wen Tiandou had committed so many evil deeds before. Even an evil spirit wanted to take his life!
*POM!*
Without a warning, Wen Tiandou threw a punch. A second ago, he was still in a deep sleep. His speed was so much faster than the maid. Also, the power that his punch carried was beyond powerful. His combat power was over five thousand! In other words, the strength of his punch should be around two thousand pounds! After a muffled splat, the power from the punch drove the maid right into the wall. Her abdomen blew up and her internal organs splattered all over the ground.
"Bitch! How dare you try to assassinate me?! Wen Tiandou sat up and stared at the maid coldly.
*Fuhhh!*
All of a sudden, the mangled corpse sat up and threw the knife at Wen Tiandou.
"Hmm? An evil spirit!"
Wen was shocked. He caught the knife calmly. He had spent years in the Dragon City mastering his martial art. He knew what caused the reanimation of a dead body immediately.
"Bro Blood Dove! There's an evil spirit in my house! Come and help me, quick!" Wen Tiandou shouted and stared at maid's dead body coldly.
The evil spirit knew that something bad was going to happen to her. She quickly left the maid's dead body. Evil spirits could only possess people with a combat power that was lower than theirs. Now, she had no one to possess. The only thing that she could do was flee from the scene as soon as possible.
She ran to the door without a second thought, but she was quickly repelled! A middle-aged man with long hair stood at the door. His index finger and middle finger on his right hand were put together. He then pressed it against his right eye. His left hand held a Mahogany Sword with three paper talismans on it.
"Calm down. I was awake when you threw your punch."
This man would be the Blood Dove.
Ding!
[Paragon level: Early phase of training Qi. Health: 6000. Combat power:6000!]
"Oh shit! This guy is even more powerful than Wen Tiandou!"
At the same time, Blood Dove swung his sword three times to force the evil spirit back to the maid's dead body. Then, he smacked a paper talisman on the dead body.
"You can see me?" The face of the evil spirit started to appear on the face of the dead body. She stared at Blood Dove fiercely.
"Hehe… Before joining the Hundred Beasts Faction, I did tag along with the Taoists to train with them. Consider yourself unlucky because I'm here today!" Blood Dove laughed coldly.
He then swung his sword again. The two paper talismans on the sword lit up.
"No! You can't destroy me! I want my revenge! I want my revenge…" The evil spirit was yelling hysterically. Blood Dove totally ignored her. He swung his swords gently and slowly. It was more of a ceremonial gesture than a combative maneuver.
Chen saw everything clearly.
"An enemy of my enemy is my friend! That evil spirit wants to kill Wen Tiandou. She's my friend now! I must rescue her! Luckily, I have Spirit Cage with me! I should capture her spirit." Chen took out the Spirit Cage from his treasure chest after making the decision.
The spirit cage was black in color. It looked like a metal incense burner. There were nine skeletons carved on it. It gave out a creepy aura. That must have been made in hell.
"I mustn't fail!"
Chen held the Spirit Cage on his right hand and the roofie powder in his left hand.
"Die! Evil spirit!"
Blood Dove completed the ceremony. The Mahogany Sword lit up. He raised it up, ready to finish the spirit off.
"Look! Flying saucer!"
Suddenly, a man shouted behind him. Blood Dove turned to look. A handful of white powder landed on him. His eyes rolled up and he collapsed on the floor. Well, even elites with six thousand combat power would not be immune to powdered form roofie! How stupid was that!
"Who the hell are you?!"
Wen Tiandou was shocked. He could not breathe. He stared at Chen sharply; like an eagle staring at its prey!
Mad Eagle!
Wen Tiandou's title in the Hundred Beasts Faction!
However, Wen Tiandou still could not figure out the person behind the Monkey King mask.
