Chapter 417: Chapter 417: Fire Dragon Curse! (Fifth Update)
Eight terrifying infant corpses, each sprinting swiftly as cheetahs, charged into the hotel premises.
The resentment exuding from these infant corpses was feverish. After all, they were unborn souls. These corpses were neither human, ghost, nor demon; incomparable to ordinary ghosts, their vengeance and resentment were much stronger.
At this time, the eight newborn corpses, with their huge bloody mouths open, were hollering, yet they didn’t rush into the hotel but instead went to the lawn!
The lawn, packed with people, was now filled with fear upon seeing the monstrous infant corpses rushing at them. The terror evoked by this sight was many-fold than that of being attacked by lions or cheetahs.
Luckily, the protective array of golden light set up by Huang Xiaolong emitted substantial beams of golden aura, barring those eight infant corpses from bypassing the formation!
Boom~~ Boom~~~ Boom~~~
The infant corpses crashed into the golden light, causing unnerving noise.
They continued to collide with the formation, all the while emitting an eerie laughter, the kind of sound that could rupture human eardrums. However, they failed to break the golden protective array. Instead, they ended up shattering their bones, their blood splattering and brains bursting out of their eye sockets.
Despite this, they still didn’t retreat.
This horrifying sight caused people in the golden protective array to wail in despair. Some were so frightened that they ran out of the protective formation into the open lawn!
This was equivalent to a death sentence.
Those who attempted to escape were promptly killed and bitten by the infant corpses. Flesh and blood were devoured, and even the bones were crushed.
As soon as the souls of the dead emerged from their bodies, they were immediately devoured by this black evil presence above them, turning into resources for the advancement of the Purple-clothed Ghost.
“If you want to live, stay still.” Huang Xiaolong roared from inside the hotel.
Upon witnessing this horrifying scene, people on the lawn didn’t dare to move an inch. Each had their hands put together as if praying for their life.
Some even tried to call the police, but where could they find a signal?
In the next second, the stray ghosts from all around surged in like a tide. They didn’t rush into the hotel but attacked the lawn in tandem with the eight infant corpses, trying to break the formation of the golden light.
Ghost shadows flickered and chilling winds blew wildly. The drizzling rain in the hotel area had turned into a storm. It seemed like it wanted to swallow all the people hiding inside the formation!
If this formation were laid down by some regular Taoist, it would have been breached by these infant corpses and ghosts long ago. But this formation was personally arranged by Huang Xiaolong, and it was as impregnable as a fortress!
“Hahaha~~” Huang Xiaolong couldn’t help but let out a mocking sound, “To think you could become a ghost king by initiating the Nine-infant Evil-spirit Formation. Idiots!”
The Purple-clothed Ghost had a plan to slaughter every living soul in this hotel after initiating the Nine-infant Evil-spirit Formation. It would then enhance the resentment with the array’s amplifying function and swallow the newly formed souls and resentment in this region to forge the body of the ghost king.
But now Huang Xiaolong’s Golden Light Protective Array had sheltered most of the living beings. Only a very few had died. This led to the Purple-clothed Ghost being unable to draw resentment!
It was furious!
Its perfect plan to ascend to the Ghost King had been greatly hindered!
“Hmph ~~~~~~”
A faint voice of a woman echoed!
In the sky, the black evil aura scattered, revealing a woman’s figure!
In the bleak moonlight and pouring rain, the woman dressed in purple Qing Dynasty embroidered robes stood out. Although she was not exceptionally beautiful, her upright eyebrows gave off an imposing aura.
“Little Long…Is…Is this really a ghost? It feels like a living person…doesn’t really look like a ghost…” Sun Wei was extremely astonished.
As soon as the Purple-dressed ghost appeared, those infant corpses and stray ghosts who were besieging the Golden Light’s protective formation kneeled down in reverence, appearing mortified. It seemed as if they were on a pilgrimage, worshipping their queen.
“Oh, so it’s a female ghost from the Qing Dynasty…” Huang Xiaolong laughed disdainfully.
Huang Xiaolong had taken in two female ghosts as his personal maidservants, one is a Tang Dynasty ghost called Mengyao, and the other is a ghost king from the Qin Dynasty named Ying Kexin.
When it comes to looks, Huang Xiaolong’s two female ghosts far surpass this Qing Dynasty ghost before them.
Moreover, they had also been around much longer than this Qing Dynasty ghost.
As the saying goes, not all ghosts that have existed for a long time are powerful, but all powerful ghosts have surely existed for a long time.
Although they were all in purple, Huang Xiaolong’s maid Mengyao, definitely has stronger combat power than this Qing Dynasty ghost! Not to mention Ghost King Ying Kexin!
“You’re so ugly… you’re not even worthy to be my maid.” Huang Xiaolong chuckled at the Qing Dynasty ghost hovering in the night sky. “You know what, I’ll just get rid of you first. By the way, is your name ‘Fangfang’? Your master is quite ruthless, willing to harm so many people to pave the way for you to become a ghost king, a pity, he met me, his grand plan is going to fail…”
“You! It’s you! Little Taoist! You ruined the plan between my master and me! You must die! I will suck out your soul! I will devour your flesh!” Fangfang, the Qing Dynasty ghost, glared at Huang Xiaolong with bitter resentment. “I will take out your soul, take it back and let my master torture and dispose you!”
Seeing the Qing Dynasty ghost Fangfang about to lose her temper, those assaulting the golden protective formation, including zombie infants and vengeful ghosts, looked at Huang Xiaolong with ferocious eyes, as if they wanted to tear Huang Xiaolong to pieces!
“Kill this little Taoist first! Once he is dead, the formation will automatically break! Kill him!” Fangfang, the Qing Dynasty ghost commanded with a commanding voice.
The group of ghosts dared not to disobey!
Boom~~~~~~Boom~~~~~~Boom~~~~~
Eight zombie infants and countless vengeful ghosts, fearlessly rushed towards Huang Xiaolong!
This scene was really terrifying, reminding one of ancient wars where thousands of soldiers charged violently at each other!
Sun Hu and the others were so frightened that they quickly backed away.
“Little Long… Little Long…” Sun Wei bit her lip, her concern and anxiety were at their peaks! She only had one thought in her heart, regardless of whether Huang Xiaolong could defeat the group of ghosts today, she would be with Huang Xiaolong, united for better or worse, sharing life and death together!
“Seeking death!” Huang Xiaolong sneered, forming a hand seal, and recited a mantra.
“Fire Dragon Spell!!!”
Huang Xiaolong spat!
A giant golden character appeared in emptiness.
The character was——”Dragon”.
As the character appeared, enormous flames shot up into the sky! The golden light was dazzling!
The next second, the character turned into a dragon several ten feet long, wrapped in flames!
The fiery dragon, draped in flames, with its claws outspread and whiskers fluttering, let out a low roar and lunged forward!
The fierce dragon spouted flames, instantly turning many vengeful ghosts into nothingness, their souls scattered!
At this moment, whether it was the people on the lawn or the members of the Sun Family in the hotel, seeing the fiery dragon was like seeing a real dragon, their minds shook, and they were instinctively forced to kneel and continuously kowtow to the dragon.
The Dragon has always been the totem of Huaxia!
Soaring through clouds, controlling wind and rain, omnipotent!
“How is this possible!” In the sky, a look of horror flashed across the eyes of Fangfang, the Qing Dynasty ghost. However, she did not flee immediately, instead, she waved her hands and countless mysterious characters appeared, each of them emanating a soaring death and evil Qi!
“Die!” Fangfang let out a wicked roar, and the sky filled with mysterious characters, like a fishing net, cast towards the fiery dragon!
