"That's all, I'll be going now." Seeing Liu Yanyan's expressionless face, the man assumed she didn't want to see him, scratched his head awkwardly, and prepared to turn and leave.
"You should stay!" Liu Yanyan's charming voice reached his ears, making him overjoyed. It was like a blessing from heaven that such a beautiful girl wanted him to stay!
However, before the man could be happy for long, several zombies surrounded him from behind and punched him in the neck. The man felt his vision go black and collapsed to the ground.
Liu Yanyan glanced around and ordered the zombies to drag the man into the house. She placed the Soul Orb on his forehead, and as the azure orb emitted a faint blue light, the unconscious man showed a painful expression. Then his face grew paler and paler. After the orb stopped absorbing his energy, the man's bodily functions ceased.
Liu Yanyan glanced at the precious bead, and a tiny Arabic numeral 1 appeared in the center of the glass bead, which seemed to represent the soul of the man she had just absorbed.
Liu Yanyan stood up and took a step back, injecting a large amount of corpse energy into the man's corpse. As she used up the large amount of corpse energy, Liu Yanyan's face turned somewhat pale.
The man's body instantly desiccated, and bluish-black lividity appeared on his face in an unusual way. His eyes slowly opened, but the pupils had disappeared, leaving only the whites of his eyes. Veins bulged around his eye sockets, and he let out an unconscious growl.
"Go! Kill everyone in this building!"
"ah!"
The man who had just turned into a zombie let out a low growl and rushed out of the house with the other zombies. Before long, the entire apartment building was filled with wails and pleas for help from men, women, and children. Accompanied by the bloodthirsty roars of the zombies, a bloody feast unfolded under the cover of night.
Not long after, Liu Yanyan carried Xu Le's body out of the apartment. The number inside the Soul Orb had changed to 87, reflecting the resolute look in her eyes under the cold moonlight.
In the sky, Xu Le quietly watched all of this unfold, holding a head in his hand—the head of the skinny Taoist priest. The skinny Taoist priest hadn't gone far before Xu Le killed him, severing his head with his mental power. Then, Xu Le silently watched Liu Yanyan gradually turn to the dark side.
Today, Liu Yanyan was accompanied by a clay figure he had sculpted, which bore a striking resemblance to himself. Due to numerous modifications, the resurrected being was merely an ordinary human with the same appearance. Xu Le easily erased the soul of the figure and then used a sheep talisman to control the body to carry out today's plan.
Otherwise, with the skinny Taoist's skill, he could stand there and let him fight for half a day without breaking through Xu Le's defenses.
As for the encyclopedia of evil arts in that small box, Xu Le found some evil arts related to corpses, sacrifices, and transformations in the encyclopedia of magic, in order to enhance Liu Yanyan's strength. As for the resurrection spell, it was fabricated by Xu Le, with the purpose of luring Liu Yanyan to attack Longhu Mountain.
Xu Le watched Liu Yanyan's departing figure, flames rising in his hand and burning her head to ashes, which then dissipated in the wind.
This skinny Taoist priest was merely a pawn in his game; once the pawn was used up, he should be killed to prevent the priest from discovering the truth and ruining his plans.
He wasn't worried at all about whether Liu Yanyan would discover his identity, because when he was with Liu Yanyan, his appearance was always altered using illusion magic, beautifying his original appearance. Although they were similar, they wouldn't be mistaken for the same person.
Xu Le watched as the NaDuTong employees rushed over and began inspecting the scene of the tragedy, then sneered and disappeared into the dark sky.

Inside the NaDuTong office, Xu Xiang sat at his desk, looking at Xu Le leaning against the sofa with a serious expression, and said in a deep voice, "That's your apartment. Why didn't you stop that little girl from massacring the apartment building yesterday?"
Xu Xiang was unaware of the relationship between Xu Le and Liu Yanyan. Because he was afraid of upsetting Xu Le, he did not send anyone to monitor him. In addition, Xu Le destroyed all the surveillance cameras during the time Liu Yanyan lived there. Once repaired, the cameras would malfunction again. Over time, the property management company simply stopped paying attention to them. As for the other witnesses, they were all dead, leaving no way to verify the facts.
In his view, Xu Le's complete indifference to the massacre of Liu Yanyan showed that Xu Le was heartless.
Xu Le took a sip of coffee and said slowly, "I had to go out yesterday. When I came back, I saw that the apartment building had been massacred, but it didn't concern me much, so I went to rest."
Bang!
Xu Xiang slammed his hand on the table and stood up, pointing at Xu Le, unsure of what to say. Finally, seeing Xu Le's still indifferent expression, he shook his head helplessly and slumped dejectedly into his chair.
Xu Xiang looked at the victim statistics and their photos on the table. Looking at those bright smiling faces, Xu Xiang felt as if his heart was being torn apart. On his own turf, he had been massacred by a little girl.
Xu Xiang crushed a corner of the table and threw it on the ground in annoyance, thinking: This guy is indeed ruthless. It seems that I can't bind him with righteousness. I can only try to win him over slowly with benefits.
Ring ring!
Xu Xiang answered the phone, and Zhao Dong's voice came through the receiver. Xu Le's ears were very sharp, and he easily heard the contents of the call: Kill Liu Yanyan as a warning to others! Also, deal with the Liu family in Xiangxi. After all, it was their negligence that allowed Liu Yanyan to escape and cause such a disaster.
Compared to Xu Xiang's headache, Xu Le finished his coffee and disappeared from the office, leaving the headache-ridden Xu Xiang to continue answering the phone.
…………
Late at night, Zhang Chulan was still sleeping when suddenly the door was opened. A toy version of Pleasant Goat with a fierce face pushed open the door, stuffed Zhang Chulan into a bag, and then quickly left the apartment building, heading to a grove of trees.
A girl wearing an orange dress, with slender, long legs clad in orange and black stockings, and a delicate little face, looked incredibly cute.
The girl in the dress glanced at the Pleasant Goat doll running towards her and said with a smile, "My doll is so efficient!"
The Pleasant Goat doll put down the bag and was about to open it when a golden light shone from inside. A figure darted out, knocking the doll away, and it fell onto a tree branch.
Zhang Chulan, with her long hair flowing over her shoulders, looked at them coldly. "I knew this wasn't over. You Quanxing bastards, how dare you steal my grandfather's corpse! Today, I'll teach you a lesson!"
"The profound origin of heaven and earth, the root of all energies, through vast calamities, I will prove my divine powers!"
Zhang Chulan was enveloped in golden light as he strode forward, whipping his leg out like a whip.
"We are not all members of the Quanxing!"
The girl in the orange dress quickly explained, and the girl wearing a hood chimed in, "We have nothing to do with Quanxing."
"What! Ahhh..."
Upon hearing that the two girls in front of him were not Quanxing people, Zhang Chulan wanted to stop what he was doing, but he had used too much force earlier and couldn't regain his balance in time, so he fell to the ground, his skin throbbing slightly.
Zhang Chulan slowly stood up, supporting himself with his hands on the ground, rubbing his buttocks incessantly. He said irritably, "You guys aren't from Quanxing, couldn't you have said so earlier? You even kidnapped me from the dormitory, giving me quite a fright."
"I was just afraid you wouldn't come!" the orange-haired girl chuckled, lowering her tone and speaking gently to comfort her.
The hooded girl, with her hands in her pockets and her eyes closed, whispered, "Our leader wishes to see you..."
"Feng Zhenghao certainly has a big attitude, sending you subordinates to pick up Zhang Chulan while he sits comfortably in his office drinking coffee."
Xu Le stood behind the crowd at some point, his tone calm, but his eyes were fixed on Zhang Lingyu and the fat Taoist priest who emerged from the darkness.
"Brother Xu, you've arrived." Zhang Chulan opened his arms and rushed towards Xu Le, because he had already learned from Xu San and Xu Si that Xu Le's strength was at the top in the world of supernatural beings, and he was a very powerful and influential figure.
