Chapter 339

The man tilted his head back, his hands clenched tight.

In the gray mist at the shop entrance, two ferocious ghost shadows emerged—skeleton faces, wearing black clothes, holding rusty knives.

The clothes were a bit blurry, but Li Zhuiyuan had seen traditional Yu family attire, and it was very similar to what these two ghost shadows were wearing.

Even if the souls of ordinary people are stripped away, it is very difficult to produce a "Chang" (a ghost controlled by a tiger/master) with such fierce evil aura, because the upper limit is right there; it's not impossible, but the probability is too low, and it's not worth trying.

Therefore, the Chang used by the man should be made using Yu family members as materials.

Extreme torture before death, making their spiritual consciousness in a state of madness and violence, then quickly killing and extracting the soul for sacrificial refining, and finally entering his own Chang formation.

From his several experiences of contacting "Yu family members," Li Zhuiyuan felt that the real Yu family members should not be dead, but they are in a state of being kept in captivity, being used as a kind of renewable raw material; from top to bottom, from flesh to soul, they are all "treasures."

The ghost shadows came aggressively, and there must be others hidden in the gray mist around.

Chen Xiyuan flicked her wrist, the jade flute flipped, lay horizontally in front of her, and her red lips leaned close.

There was no sound, but the gray mist around suddenly became thick.

The two ghost shadows that had already rushed to the steps slowed down, and finally almost fell into a standstill;

"Hum!" "Hum." "Hum."

In the gray mist, three more identical ghost shadows were forced out, struggling desperately, but unable to move.

This was just the beginning; soon, the gray mist began to roll like a tide, and its surface was attached with a layer of light blue.

The man's face revealed panic, obviously unable to accept this change in situation.

Because the miasma he had deployed using his special ability was simply and easily turned against him by the other party.

Chen Xiyuan put down the flute.

The flute happened to be in front of the boy.

Li Zhuiyuan saw it; Chen Xiyuan was not playing a musical instrument just now, she was arranging her own domain.

Although the Chen family of Hainan is an orthodox Long Wang gate, the number of Dragon Kings produced by the Chen family is not many.

On the big offering table in the east room, Grandma Liu could place the memorial tablets of the Qin and Liu families, and even if the two families were placed separately, the number of memorial tablets was shocking.

And in the history of the Chen family, only three Dragon Kings have been produced.

But every Chen family Long Wang, in his generation, was almost without an opponent.

The Chen family's main secret art is the "Listening to the Tide and Watching the Sea Law," which was realized by the Chen family ancestor watching the sea and listening to the tide. That ancestor was not a Long Wang, and the secret art he created was also a fragment, not complete.

However, the descendants were competitive, supplementing and sublimating it generation after generation, pushing the "Listening to the Tide and Watching the Sea Law" to perfection.

On this point, it is simply in sharp contrast with the Yin family.

However, this secret art mainly cultivates the domain, and the domain is a mysterious existence. It is different from formations or Feng Shui, which are great paths; it is based on the self and expands outward with oneself as the foundation.

The domain varies from person to person; there are thousands of domains for thousands of people, and changes are endless.

Chen Xiyuan is using the flute to support her sound domain.

This is also the reason why Dragon Kings have been produced so rarely in the history of the Chen family. Other families have complete ladder-style teaching and transmission methods, while Chen family members encounter a big hurdle from birth... talent.

Because everyone's domain is different, teachers and elders want to teach but can only teach basic things. After passing the basic stage, they have to rely on the young disciples of the family to realize it themselves.

If they realize it, they are considered talented; if they don't, they are wasted.

Like farming, it depends on the face of the Heavens to eat; it is very common for one generation or several consecutive generations to have a poor harvest.

Therefore, the Chen family cannot produce powerful Long Wang competitors every generation like the Qin and Liu families did back then.

Chen Xiyuan raised her left hand, holding a talisman between her fingertips, and threw it lightly.

The talisman paper ignited spontaneously, bringing along the blue mist around it to ignite, and the blue light fire traced back like a tide.

The man's face revealed horror, wanting to close his mouth and cut off his connection with the mist, but as soon as he closed his mouth, new blue mist overflowed from his nose, ears, and even eyes.

He himself had actually long been included in Chen Xiyuan's domain.

"Ah!!!"

The surging flames poured into the man's body all at once. The man's body first bulged, then cracks appeared one by one, and flames burst out from inside.

His body began to wither and melt. Besides the human body, there seemed to be something like a squirrel inside; this was the man's original body.

Li Zhuiyuan didn't have time to observe carefully, and the demon body and human body were annihilated together, turning into fly ash.

Chen Xiyuan waved her hand, the mist dissipated, and the wind brought by it also cleared away the ashes on the ground.

This is the terror, or extreme, of the Chen family's "Listening to the Tide and Watching the Sea Law." As long as a person with outstanding talent and character appears in the family, and successfully expands the domain...

Then, on the river, the strong will be like entering a quagmire in front of the Chen family, and the weak will have no ability to resist in front of the Chen family.

That "Yu family man" was really not that weak, and controlling five ghost brakes alone could be considered a formidable demon, but in front of Chen Xiyuan's domain, he didn't even have the ability to fight back, and died very sloppily.

Even the talisman Chen Xiyuan used to light the fire at the end was the lowest level possible; she could even have used a match or a lighter.

Looking at it this way, the Chen family of this generation has indeed produced a formidable young figure, daring to walk the river alone, proving that her domain has reached a certain level of strength and maturity.

To fight her, one must avoid close combat; at least at the beginning, one cannot be directly included in her domain, as that would directly fall into a passive position.

But she can also move and can bring the domain with her.

Therefore, the most suitable combat mode is to let Runsheng actively enter her domain, let Runsheng hold on in that difficult environment, and by the way, fix her domain, and then he himself, at a safe distance, constantly arranges various temporary formations to offset and break the effect of the opponent's domain.

In the middle, he only needs to tear open some gaps and create opportunities, and Lin Shu You and Tan Wenbin can rush forward, having a probability of directly solving the battle and beheading her.

Of course, this is the response mode in an ideal state. When they really start fighting, the other party will also have their own special response methods and will not foolishly follow his arrangement.

Chen Xiyuan revealed a smile, clapped her hands, and turned around, looking very much like an ordinary girl about to eat something good.

Although the gray mist dissipated, the effect of "daze and distraction" still had to last for a while.

Li Zhuiyuan began to adjust his gaze, letting his spirit slowly recover.

However, Chen Xiyuan leaned her face in front of the boy, looking carefully while reaching out to touch the boy's cheek lightly.

"This child, he really looks so good."

She had no malice, simply "liking beauty."

Having a natural good feeling for beautiful things is human nature.

And what she didn't know was that in the brain of this boy she thought looked good, she had just been miserable.

Li Zhuiyuan had no malice toward her either. Encountering a powerful opponent and analyzing how to defeat her is a kind of instinct for the boy.

She didn't make a move directly in the shop, just because she didn't want to hurt the innocent, and even after walking out of the shop door, she specially stood in front of him.

She didn't see through his identity, so there was no need to deliberately perform.

In the Jianghu, he had seen too many treacherous and unscrupulous people; hers was truly rare.

This is probably the family style of an orthodox Long Wang family.

Chen Xiyuan walked into the shop, sat down, and when she wanted to pick up chopsticks to drink soup, she looked around, then picked up the flute and blew it. This time there was sound, and then "everyone" woke up from a dream, only feeling it was a moment of distraction.

Even if they looked at the time before the distraction and looked at the time again immediately after, they wouldn't feel anything strange, only sighing that time flies when in a daze.

In reality, many people have had such experiences, but sometimes, it is actually a certain thing that happened beside you that you couldn't perceive.

The people in the soup shop returned to doing their own things.

Runsheng had closed his eyes earlier, and now he still had his eyes closed.

Lin Shu You touched his stomach with satisfaction.

Tan Wenbin had good acting skills, so he acted more generously, stood up, and went to the boss to settle the bill.

Adding soup is free, but they added meat; it was impossible for them to drink until they were full of water. At first, they paid for each bowl of meat, but later the boss took the initiative to say they would pay together at the end.

They ate a lot, but compared to the quantity, it really wasn't expensive. Tan Wenbin couldn't help but sigh that the prices in Luoyang are truly pleasant.

The boss rarely encountered such generous guests, waved his hand, and gave a 20% discount and wiped off the zero.

After settling the bill, Tan Wenbin shared a cigarette with the boss and took out money again, saying that he would treat the other guests, including the boss and the old ladies, to two bottles of Haibi each.

Subsequently, Tan Wenbin carried two bottles of Haibi and walked to Chen Xiyuan, helped her open the bottle cap, and inserted a straw.

Chen Xiyuan: "Thank you."

Holding chopsticks in her right hand, she waved her left hand in front of Tan Wenbin.

Tan Wenbin was stunned.

Brother Xiaoyuan had already informed him of this woman's identity through the red thread.

Tan Wenbin also immediately understood what this action meant.

This was to thank him for treating her to a drink, and she was scattering merit to him.

No, sister, you treat merit as a tip?

Merit has its own flow. Waving her hand like this certainly wouldn't weigh out a fixed number like distributing silver, but this action, in the eyes of the Heavenly Dao, also counts as a kind of blessing.

It's just like in the past, after they finished walking the river, the black-hearted drivers who deliberately adjusted the meter would have car accidents, and drivers who gave free rides would meet their partners.

Tan Wenbin:

"No, beauty, you don't have to wave me away like chasing flies just because I treated you to a drink, right? Although you look very beautiful, I have no other intentions toward you. Look, I treated the aunts too."

Chen Xiyuan lowered her head and took a sip of soup, then looked up and smiled at Tan Wenbin; it should be that too much chili was added, and she even stuck out her tongue.

This scene made Tan Wenbin unable to laugh or cry; sincerity is a killer skill, and he almost couldn't continue acting.

"Beauty, you are not a local, right?"

Chen Xiyuan took the Haibi and took a sip, simply answering:

Chen Xiyuan took the Haibi, took a sip, and answered simply:
