Chapter 199: then translation of title

The person who opened the door was a woman a few years younger than Kang Shuangrou.

At the moment she saw Kang Wan, her gaze flickered for an instant.

Kang Wan called out, "Aunt Li."

Kang Yan also called out, "Aunt Li."

Li Xiaolan nodded, made a shushing gesture, and said, "Keep it down, the kids are asleep!"

Then she stepped aside to let them in.

Kang Yan and the others secretly furrowed their brows.

Normally, seeing so many people, Aunt Li would at least be surprised and ask what was going on.

But now nothing is normal.

Kang Wan also stepped aside and lowered her voice, saying, "Let's go in."

Tushan Jiu didn't move, and the others followed her lead and stayed still.

"What's wrong, Master?"

Tushan Jiu smiled and said, "Oh, so you're using the Seven Killing Formation."

The Seven Killing Formation is one of the four great evil arts.

As soon as she said that, the smile on 'Kang Wan's' face froze, and she said, "What?"

It's quite vicious—anyone trapped in the Seven Killing Formation, whether soul or flesh, must struggle desperately and ultimately die after enduring endless torment.

And that informant was also trapped by your Seven Killing Formation, and finally, unable to bear the torture, committed suicide, right?

'Kang Wan' tilted her head, thought for a moment, then smiled; when she spoke again, her voice had turned into a man's.

"When did you figure it out? Were those things you said at the hospital meant to let me let my guard down?"

After saying that, she glanced at the others.

Seeing no surprise or alarm on their faces, she let out a contemptuous scoff and said, "You should have told me earlier—I wouldn't have had to work so hard at this act."

'Kang Wan' looked at Kang Yan and said, "You should recognize my voice by now, Silver Wolf."

Kang Yan gritted his teeth and said, "The Cobra is you!"

At that moment, 'Li Xiaolan' beside them also chuckled and said, "Silver Wolf, hear me out too."

Kang Yan snapped his head toward 'Li Xiaolan' and said, "Hyena, you're supposed to be dead already!"

Back when he was still with the gang, during a meet‑up mission he was caught by the police, but because he resisted arrest and still had a gun, the sniper blew his head off.

It seems you still remember me, right? Our boss has brought me back to life—you wouldn't know, but the boss kept a master on retainer two years ago. Oh, you definitely wouldn't know, since you've only been undercover for half a year, and—

The last two words were spat out by the Hyena through clenched back teeth.

That mission was the informant who tipped off the police, which is why he died under police gunfire!

He added, "I suppose this counts as me personally getting revenge—that informant died a horrible death."

"Damn it!" Kang Yan cursed, about to rush forward and strike, but the moment he moved, he stopped.

Because if he struck, he wouldn't be hitting them but the possessed Kang Wan and Li Xiaolan.

Seeing Kang Yan furious to the point of wanting to die yet daring not to move, the Cobra and the Hyena burst out laughing smugly.

As for Tushan Jiu, they truly didn't even consider her worth a glance.

Just a Sword Borrower—easy to handle in a minute; they're all vicious ghosts with blood on their hands!

That master had told them about the strength of the various sects in the domestic metaphysical world.

And what is this Sword Borrower?

The master said, "A Sword Borrower is just a weakling who only knows divination."

The Cobra pulled a knife from his pocket, looked at Tushan Jiu, and said, "Sword Borrower, right? I'm putting this out there today—I'll bloodbath this orphanage and take Kang Yan's life to avenge our dozen-plus dead brothers and the twenty-plus captured ones. If you're smart, get lost!"

No sooner had he finished speaking than Wang Dongqing, wearing a yellow delivery uniform and a yellow rabbit‑ear helmet, rolled up his sleeves and came charging out from the stairwell:

"Hey, with my short temper, what the hell are you two doing, mumbling nonsense? Get it straight—this is China, not your playground to run wild in, are you okay?"

Lu Ze Yuan, who was closest to the rear, was completely unprepared; suddenly a person sprang out from behind him and started talking, giving him a start: "Holy shit, there's still someone here!"

Maomao let out a helpless sigh, stepped forward, pulled the person back, and said, "Sorry to disturb you—carry on, we're just here to watch the show."

Lu Ze Yuan widened his eyes and said, "And there's more!"

Xiang Yichu's icy voice also rang out: "Brother Wang, Fellow Daoist Tushan, since you've already drawn your sword, this matter naturally belongs to you—we can't steal the show!"

Lu Ze Yuan heard the voice but saw no one; curious, he took three quick steps to the stairwell and looked over.

Upon looking, his eyes instantly widened.

So many people.

Among them were two familiar faces—a man and a woman who had had him sign a confidentiality agreement the last time.

In fact, Lin Xiu'er and her two companions had all arrived here, only then being notified that Master Xu had said Tushan Jiu had already drawn her sword.

But since we're already here, we might as well watch how a Sword Borrower fights—it's not a wasted trip.

After all, we've only ever seen Tushan Jiu do divination; up to now we still don't know what level her combat ability is at.

Master Xu, however, couldn't come; he changed plans and went to the hospital to check on the victims.

They also didn't know who was taking statements in the middle of the night.

As for Maomao and Xiang Yichu, one was off work heading home, the other was out wandering and catching ghosts; they just happened to be nearby, so they took a taxi over.

As for Wang Dongqing, no need to say—he simply followed Lin Xiu'er and her group's car all the way here.

An electric bike chasing a car—if he's not the rider, who is?

Here, seeing that there were still people in the stairwell, the Cobra and the Hyena became alert.

The Cobra questioned the Hyena: "Someone's come in here—don't you feel anything at all?"

The Hyena frowned, dissatisfied: "How would I know where to go?! I'm not idle—I've been busy setting up the Seven Killing Formation!"

Lie Gou whispered to Yan Jing She: "Fuck, really damn pathetic, surrounded by Chinese police in life, and after death still fucking surrounded by Mystic Masters—what do we do? They seem to have a lot of people; the Seven Slaughter Formation probably doesn't have that big a range."

Yan Jing She wasn't that panicked, but a hint of gloom flashed in his eyes: "What's there to panic about? Don't forget, we have those kids infused with evil spirits as hostages—let them try moving a bit and see!"

Saying that, he pulled a small doll from the sling bag he wore across his body.

This doll is the same as the ones those children were holding that day, except his is much smaller—only the size of a palm.

Upon hearing that, Lie Gou glanced at the Evil Spirit Master in his hand, a smug smile spreading across his mouth.

This Evil Spirit Master is that grandmaster's prideful work; paired with the Seven Slaughter Formation and evil spirits, we'll see whether the Chinese Mystic Masters want the children's lives or Kang Yan's life!

In short, their grudge must be avenged!

Kang Yan's life—they've decided it today!
