The oddity in the village could never have imagined that soone would discover their location the mont they entered the village.
And decisively launch an attack on that position.
The mysterious village before the eyes is actually a composition of multiple oddities.
The source of it, Gu Xi doesn’t know, initially, perhaps it was the village or soone who beca an oddity, gradually devouring other residents in the village.
Later, for reasons unknown, it attracted other oddities. In the struggle between oddities, it slowly assimilated the powers and rules of others, forming this village.
The village can move freely, the village can inadvertently scatter people—all these aren’t the original powers of the oddity.
Gu Xi selected the position of the village’s ear and eye, using the pair of lanterns to confuse those entering the village as the primary target.
As long as the lanterns are destroyed, the mist shrouding the village will disappear.
Those separated palanquin bearers will see each other, unaffected by the oddity, and won’t face the oddity alone.
Even Wang Datong, who didn’t co in later, would notice the situation here and rush over at the first mont.
Actually, compared to the Li Family’s Daughter, Gu Xi thinks Wang Datong is the most suitable person to deal with the odd village ahead; those pallbearers and filial sons, all are controlled by Wang Datong.
He alone represents everyone.
The odd village’s ability can’t separate them.
The odd thods will eventually turn into a lee, giving Wang Datong a much greater chance of winning.
But the Li Family’s Daughter is different. She is strong on her own, but only individually strong. Her subordinates haven’t received any of her power, rely being ghost souls suppressed by the Li Family’s Daughter.
Facing this situation, the Li Family’s Daughter will instead fight alone, facing the entire odd village by herself.
Seeing the Li Family’s Daughter punch the correct lantern, Gu Xi used the Eye of the Soul to send a ssage imdiately.
"Count down from the top on the left, the third lantern."
The Li Family’s Daughter heard, uncertain if the voice was from Gu Xi or guided by the oddity, so she missed it the first ti.
But Gu Xi quickly said again, "Count down the third lantern from the bottom on the right."
"Topmost first lantern on the right side!"
"Turn to the bottommost lantern on the left side."
"The lantern you broke at the very beginning!"
The information from Gu Xi ca faster and faster, and the Li Family’s Daughter’s reaction speed increased accordingly.
Finally, the Li Family’s Daughter caught up with Gu Xi’s command, punching precisely at the lantern.
In front of the eerie village, there were two lanterns as the foundation of the oddity.
The first lantern was hit by the Li Family’s Daughter because she didn’t react in the beginning.
The second lantern, because the first got knocked out, kept moving its position, which is why Gu Xi kept directing the Li Family’s Daughter to act.
With the second lantern downed, Gu Xi only felt a roar in his ears.
The originally empty village completely changed its appearance.
Corpses turning into skeleton corpses, neatly placed in front of the houses’ gates.
The person arranging these bodies seed to have OCD, all the bodies arranged by size, regardless of how tall they were in life, their heads aligned on a straight line post-mortem.
All eyes staring directly at the village gate.
Gu Xi even saw several papier-mâché corpses lying in front of various doorways here.
These were evidently the handmaidens from the Li Family’s wedding escort team.
But now they have fallen, seemingly killed by the oddity.
In the rooms, there are still so palanquin bearers dragged into the houses by the oddity, so eating things, so swinging weapons at the air.
Evidently, the obsessions in these palanquin bearers and palanquin bearers have been triggered.
It seems this kind of odd power is quite strong, affecting not only humans but even the undead too.
As Gu Xi surveyed the surroundings, the Li Family’s Daughter also returned to Gu Xi’s side.
"Little Sir, how did I do?"
"Just alright, you delayed too long. If you acted sooner, you could have saved so of your subordinates earlier. They seem to be trapped now.
You should handle it yourself now."
Gu Xi pointed to the ghost souls trapped in each room, "Need my help?"
The Li Family’s Daughter was curious about Gu Xi’s skills, but she understood his character well from traveling with him all this way.
Gu Xi is the type who won’t act without profit.
Previously, she paid a high price to borrow Gu Xi’s stake, and if she asks him to solve this matter now, who knows what it would cost in the end.
The Li Family’s Daughter resolutely said, "No need, I can handle it myself. But if I leave, this area will beco unsafe. Would you like to follow ?"
"Do you believe I would toss you into the Underworld for a spin?"
"I believe, of course, I do. But you should be careful, your strength to open the door is too weak. If soone finds out, you won’t be able to send people to the Underworld."
The Li Family’s Daughter had been fighting the Death Incarnation-Titan for a day, how could she not know about its situation?
Even if the Death Incarnation-Titan was released to protect Gu Xi, it wouldn’t take an ambush to defeat him; even a direct attack by any oddity would suffice.
Regarding the Li Family’s Daughter’s reminder, Gu Xi could only smile.
He couldn’t exactly say he needed protection now.
Currently, he’s a big shot in the Underworld and must maintain that persona.
Gu Xi gently pressed his temples, saying, let’s hurry up, finish dealing with the odd village here swiftly so he could leave quickly once they were settled.
It’s getting increasingly difficult to continue this act.
Better to wrap things up quickly.
Seeing Gu Xi believing he was fine, only then did the Li Family’s Daughter rush out.
Now she has to rescue her subordinates, saving as many as possible one by one.
If she doesn’t rescue them, she’ll probably have to carry her bridal sedan alone later.
After the Li Family’s Daughter took action, Gu Xi’s gaze shifted, looking towards the deepest part of the village.
There was the Earth Vein the Yellow Springs Dragon Robe could see, the only part of the entire odd village not yet assimilated by the oddity.
Though unaware of what this ans, it’s the only place full of vitality in the whole odd village.
As long as you get into that spot, stay obediently for a night, you won’t die in the odd village.
However, Gu Xi always feels there’s sothing over there.
If Gu Xi were above level 20, he would certainly dare to take a look.
But currently, Gu Xi is a re level 8, in this world, Gu Xi dare not act recklessly.
