Mu Jinyu held the two gold-threaded bags, his eyes resolute!
Then, without hesitation, he reached out and untied the openings of the two bags. As True Yuan circulated and covered his hands, he reached into the bags and took out the two ghost faces that were starting to stir as the openings were undone!
Holding the two ghost faces in his hands, Mu Jinyu could feel a gnawing, stabbing pain in his palms where the True Yuan was.
Taking advantage of the mont before the Ghost-Faced Demons had fully revived, Mu Jinyu overlapped the two ghost faces!
As the paper-thin ghost faces were layered, the mournful and joyful expressions of the first mask disappeared, gradually rging into the face of the second Faceless Ghost Mask.
This made both ghost faces bear clear facial features, with a smirk that was neither a smile nor a grimace!
Watching the originally pale ghost face slowly turn to black, Mu Jinyu didn't act rashly. He waited for the right mont, finally covering his face with the ghost faces.
"Ah!!"
As soon as the ghost faces were placed upon his face, Mu Jinyu felt an intense pain, as if his whole face was being peeled off, and he couldn't help but cry out in agony.
Since the two ghost faces were eroding each other, attempting to possess the other's wrecked body and form, the process was not as efficient as when there was only a single ghost face.
After much struggle, neither was able to peel off Mu Jinyu's skin.
And during this process, they gradually started to rge more with Mu Jinyu's face.
The pain was excruciating.
It gave Mu Jinyu a taste of what Wang Hu must have felt when he controlled the Rotten Corpse Demon's leg and those Embroidered Shoes.
It was truly a pain like that of Ling Chi, the slow cutting torture!
Fortunately, Li Yaotong had told him how to control these two ghost faces before leaving, or Mu Jinyu might not have been able to endure it, losing his skin to the ghost faces in the first round!
Controlling Demons was exceedingly dangerous!
As ti passed, Mu Jinyu's consciousness beca more and more blurred, and he had no idea how much ti had elapsed outside.
Finally, the pain on his face subsided, leaving only numbness.
"Did I… make it through?" Mu Jinyu touched his face with both hands, feeling that his skin had beco very dry, stiff, and carried a cold aura.
He got up from the bed, jumped down, and walked to the bathroom to look in the mirror.
In the mirror, the features of his face remained largely unchanged, which greatly relieved Mu Jinyu.
Otherwise, he feared that after controlling the Ghost-Faced Demon, even his facial features would be altered. While he might have had the power to protect himself, the resulting alienation from others would have been another kind of pain!
The current change was still acceptable, at least he didn't end up like Wang Hu and Wu Shisan, one constantly wearing Embroidered Shoes, the other always damp as though just dragged out of a river.
That would be a true transformation into sothing neither human nor ghost!
However, just as Mu Jinyu was thinking this, he saw in the mirror that the corners of his mouth suddenly curled up into a cold smirk.
"Crack!"
"Bang!"
In an instant, the entire mirror shattered!
"Huh…" Mu Jinyu was startled and quickly stepped back to avoid the mirror shards scattering everywhere.
He stood still, rembering the scene, aware that the level of Ghost-Faced Demon was quite high and he was temporarily unable to control it. Thɪs chapter is updated by nοvelfire
"It looks like I can't return to Dragon King Hall for the ti being until I can fully master this Demon Power, lest I harm Mom and Wen Rou," he said in a frustrated tone.
Then, his eyes suddenly flashed with a cold killing intent.
Now, it was ti to settle accounts with Ruwai and Ru Nei of Guang Buddha Temple.
"Hopefully, they haven't moved away from Guang Buddha Temple yet!"
Mu Jinyu muttered softly, then left the empty and deserted hotel.
What he didn't notice was…
Just as a cold sneer appeared on the corner of his mouth, causing the entire mirror surface to shatter, a faint green line erged on his forehead, interweaving into a shallow dragon pattern.
That's what stopped the laughter that was about to spread throughout the entire inn.
...
Atop Guang Buddha Temple.
Rushi was still urging Ru Nei and Ruwai to temporarily leave Guang Buddha Temple.
"Junior brother, don't be stubborn," Rushi pleaded, "The Dragon King of Dragon King Hall may not be scary, but they undoubtedly have soone within who can control demons. If the Dragon King calls them here, we might really fall here!"
Rushi implored bitterly.
Ru Nei's demon's long tongue on his stomach flicked lightly, coldly saying, "Then let them co, I also want to settle the score for the blown-off head! Damn, it was the first ti I was so close to death, luckily, I'm no longer quite human now…"
Ruwai shared the sa attitude, snorting, "What's there to fear, our brothers were lucky to survive the demons' attack and controlled the power of the demons, I don't believe that in this sudden incident, Dragon King Hall could have many Demon Whisperers!"
"Clang clang clang!"
The huge mouth on his belly gnashed its teeth, emitting a clashing sound like swords eting.
Ruwai continued, "Even if there are, can they withstand a few bites from ?"
"Oh? Is that so?!"
At that mont, a voice that sounded like a mix of laughter and non-laughter suddenly rang out in their room.
"Huh?!"
"The Dragon King?!"
Hearing this familiar voice, the expressions of the three from Rushi's group changed simultaneously.
Ruwai's face changed, and he quickly switched to a sneer, "You've got guts, you were chased away by like a lost dog just now, and in half a day, you dare to co back to seek death!"
Ru Nei, grinding his teeth, said, "The Dragon King, you say? The hatred for killing is irreconcilable. Today I'll make you pay with your blood for my blood!"
As he spoke, he controlled the long tongue inside the huge mouth on his stomach, lashing fiercely towards the source of the voice.
"Boom!"
The demon's long tongue struck the wall, and imdiately that red brick wall collapsed thunderously.
Then Mu Jinyu was revealed standing outside.
Under the dim sky, as they looked up, for a mont they thought Mu Jinyu's face seed featureless.
They blinked, and Mu Jinyu clearly had features, but the corners of his mouth were hooked in a chilling, eerie sneer, with his eyebrows and eyes drooping as if crying but not crying, making his expression look even more bizarre and terrifying!
"Dragon King, what is this?!"
Seeing Mu Jinyu like this, their hearts began to beat faster, and a strong sense of unease washed over them!
"I've co to send you on your way!"
"Hehehe..."
"Amitabha..."
"Wuu wuu wuu wuu..."
"I will guide you to enlightennt!"
Mu Jinyu's voice was hoarse as he spoke, laughing and crying at the sa ti, making it look as if he had gone mad!
But Ru Nei and Ruwai, who controlled demons, at that mont, sensed an ominous and significant threat!
"Hee hee hee..."
Laughter and sobs carried an incredibly terrifying destructive force, like gods rejoicing and ghosts wailing. In an instant, the room they were in collapsed into nothingness!
And Rushi, who was rely a Peak Energy Transformation Martial Artist, upon hearing this mix of sobs and laughter, died instantly on the spot!
Rushi lay on the ground, his eyes wide open, unable to believe that he, who once could compete with Sheng Rulai, would die so suffocatingly at the hands of a junior!
And after his death, the corners of his mouth also gradually curved into a chilling, eerie sneer!
