Chapter 395: Instigation

o I will blow the whole shell open.”Next, you all know about the KMT's assassination plan. Let me make it clear: I have that list, and half of the people on it I killed myself. I just didn't reveal my...The plainclothes officers who left from the middle of the mountain arrived at the foot of the mountain in less than forty minutes and saw the driver and car waiting there.

At this time, there was a pile of cigarette butts at the driver's feet. He was looking up with surprised eyes towards the middle of the mountain. From the middle of the mountain, black mist began to spread rapidly towards the summit and the foot of the mountain. The summit had already been completely shrouded in black mist, while the black mist spreading down the mountain was a little slower.

"Don't just stand there, start the car and get us out of here. Master Wu told us to get as far away from this place as possible. Don't let the black mist trap us."

"At the head of the line, Qian rushed forward, his breath coming out in short, hurried gasps."

They were chased down the mountain by the black mist all the way. This was only because the three masters Wu stepped in and slowed the spread of the black mist, otherwise they would have been swept into the black mist just like those before them, disappearing without a trace.

As the black mist crept down to the foot of the mountain, everyone left the woods. After the sound of car engines faded completely, the entire forest fell silent.

At this time, the three people in the black mist each kept a meter's distance from each other. A red thread was wrapped around their wrists. This was the ripple that bound the three people when they entered the black mist.

We're unsure how many of them there are, so it's best not to split up and give them the chance to pick us off one by one.

Hong Lian and Wu You both agreed. As before, Wu You led the way, Hong Lian in the middle, and Lian Yi bringing up the rear. The three cautiously moved forward through the black mist.

When the three walked to where the black mist was densest, they could only see their palms when held right in front of their noses. Although they were still connected by a red ribbon, they couldn't see or hear each other, and could only communicate by pulling on the ribbon.

Suddenly, black mist surged, and a strange laughter echoed around the three people, making them dizzy for a moment.

The sarira in her brow rippled with a soft golden light, instantly restoring her to normal. Wuyu chanted the *Heart Sutra*, clearing his own mind. Honglian directly placed a piece of blood jade in her mouth, and the daze in her eyes vanished immediately.

Just as the three regained their composure, countless evil spirits madly charged towards them, as if wanting to tear a piece of flesh from them. All the black mist was churning towards their location.

The ripples had a stupa protecting her body. Those evil spirits that rushed over were all knocked back by the golden light of the stupa, and the evil energy on their bodies was weakened. However, they were all fearless and desperate, willing to scatter their souls and fly into Ripples' body even if it meant their demise.

"Please!"

Liàn Yī murmured something, then simultaneously used her Xuan Qi to draw a formation with both hands. In less than five minutes, nine golden formations hovered around her. With a simultaneous wave of her hands, the nine formations flew out, instantly purifying the evil spirits that had rushed over.

Those spirits that had pierced the formation were forcefully purified and stood there bewildered, their dim forms radiating white light as they hovered in the air. They looked around blankly, seemingly unaware of where they were.

Because of Lian's ripple's ultimate move, the black mist and evil spirits surrounding the three people disappeared in an instant. Hónglián’s nine jade talismans floating around her body had already turned half black, protecting her from the first wave of attacks. Seeing Lianyi and Wuyou at this time, she immediately expanded the range of the jade talisman, also bringing the two people within the protective range of the jade talisman.

"Ripples, you come to purify, I will defend, Master Wuyu, you are responsible for transcendence!"

Great!

No problem!

Both of them responded at the same time.

Immediately, ripples gave her back to Honglian, and then began to draw a formation with azure arcane power. After the formation was complete, it shimmered with golden light and plunged into the evil spirits that were frantically attacking them.

Now, Muyou held a wooden fish in her hand. As she tapped it and chanted the *Sutra of Rebirth*, she guided those bewildered and confused souls to their destination.

Hong Lian's fingers continuously pinched the incantation, activating the jade talisman. She then retracted the now completely black jade talisman into her waistband, erecting a shield for the three of them to prevent the evil spirits from interrupting the other two's actions.

The three of them worked in perfect harmony, and after half an hour, the surrounding black mist thinned out. Lian Ri's eyes narrowed, she whipped her red silk ribbon from her wrist, and dragged a dark figure out from behind the layers of black mist.

When the shadow crashed to the ground beside the ripples, the attacks of the surrounding evil spirits slowed.

How did you find me

A shrill female voice rang in the ears of the three, laced with disbelief.

"How many demons have you devoured They've all turned into a palette, it's hard not to see you."

Ripple spoke nonchalantly, but the red ribbon in her hand accelerated its absorption of the shadow's evil energy.

"No, stop it! Don't purify me! I told you who designed you!!"

As the black mist faded, a ghastly white woman's face emerged.

Who is your contract demon

"Gao Yang, I am her contractual spirit demon."

Upon hearing this, Ripples' eyes twitched at the corners, and she directly asked:

What is your name

"My name is Yu Meili."

"It's you!"

This time, the ripple revealed a hint of a smile. It was truly effortless, to think that after all the twists and turns, this evil spirit still followed Gao Yang around.

"Tell me about your conspiracy! Gao Yang is really something, daring to scheme and set a trap for me."

The ripple command slowed the absorption of demonic energy, and it continued to ask.

"The master, unwilling to be punished by the Mage Association, contacted Jade Bi Yao and Guo."

The rest of the words hadn't been spoken yet, Yu Meili’s body bound by the red ribbon suddenly dispersed. Unfortunately, the next instant, she was pulled back by the red ribbon. The evil aura on the other person had only reduced to a third of its previous amount. She turned her head in some surprise, then looked at Lian Yi, seemingly not understanding what had happened.

“Your reflexes are a bit too slow, wasn't it your master who wanted you to self-destruct You only haven't scattered into nothingness because you were bound by my artifact. What are you staring at me for! You should go find your master and settle the score! Now you're a free spirit.”

Within the ripples of sound, there was a hint of temptation. She suddenly wanted to see the play between the former master and servant who had now turned against each other.

At this moment, Yu Meili also reacted. She had become a subordinate who could be abandoned at any time. Her face instantly became contorted, her bloodshot eyes fixed on Lian'er, and she hissed:

Let me go, I'm going to get revenge! That bastard actually dared to abandon me!!!

"Sure, but when you're done settling your score, remember to come back and find me. Otherwise, I won't mind shattering you."

Ripple raised her hand and launched a small ball of profound energy imbued with the light of relic gold into Yu Meili's brow. The latter had a moment of confusion before realizing she was free. She let out a roar and vanished from Ripple's presence, dragging a trail of black smoke behind her.

"How could you let her go"

Honglian, wiping the sweat from her brow, asked.

"Let her take the lead, disrupt their formation, and then we'll seize the opportunity."

As expected, a heart-wrenching scream echoed from behind the three of them moments later.

"Here!"

The black mist was quickly dissipating, the remaining few evil spirits were nowhere to be seen, revealing an entrance to a two-meter high stone cave. even celebrated for it, believing all along that his second sister treated him that way because of that man's pillow talk. So once the other party was gone, he went to introduce a new husband to his...
