"Divine Seal, Haunted by Evil Spirits!" At the last moment, he used some kind of secret technique to forcefully summon the Divine Seal ahead of time.
A glittering golden seal flickered above his head. At the bottom of the seal was a sinister ghost face.
Su Yu's expression changed slightly, and he cursed inwardly. He then held the little demoness and retreated quickly.
At the same time, he waved his wrist, and the silk in his sleeve quickly cut off the top of his head.
The incomparably hard ceiling of the cave was forcefully cut open. The starlight from the outside naturally shone into the cave, and the fresh air that had not been there for a long time blew in.
Su Yu stamped on the ground with the tip of his foot, then soared into the sky along with the little demoness and left the underground world.
But just as he left, an illusory ghost face rushed out of the cave. It was a hundred feet in size.
The ghost face opened its mouth and bit the two of them.
This bite was not on the flesh, but on the soul!
All of a sudden, Su Yu felt a heart-wrenching pain in his soul, as if it was about to be chewed to pieces by some invisible force!
As for the little demon in his arms, he let out a blood-curdling scream. His entire body trembled as he clutched his head in pain.
If nothing unexpected happened, their divine souls would be destroyed in the next moment!
The Ghost Buddha's divine seal was actually a soul attack!
This was something no one knew about. He hid it extremely well, using it as a trump card!
Now that he was facing death, he finally let it out!
At such a critical moment, Su Yu pushed the little demoness away.
As the ghost face roared, it split into two. One of them continued biting Su Yu, while the other chased after the little demoness.
Su Yu's expression changed slightly, and he cursed inwardly.
"Soul Flame!" Su Yu's eyes flickered with a faint white light, while a formless soul flame engulfed the ghost face, which was chasing after the little demoness.
The ghost face's whole body was emitting green smoke, and he angrily roared as he turned around. He gave up on Su Yu and pounced at him once again.
At this moment, the little devil had recovered a little from her injuries, and her vision was no longer blurred.
Witnessing all of this, the little demoness felt as if she had been electrocuted, and her heart was deeply shaken. She was at a loss, puzzled, doubtful, and a warm current that she had never felt before surged in the depths of her heart.
"Why did you save me like this?" The little devil pondered, feeling confused for the first time.
He clearly did not know her, he clearly could have left her behind, he clearly could have let her attract the Ghost Face Mask and run away.
The unexplainable questions were like a ball of tangled up tightly in his heart.
At this moment, Su Yu, who was facing the ghost face's tearing, didn't seem to be in pain anymore. This was because the Divine Nine-Dragon Cauldron had been disturbed.
Wisps of pure red liquid blended into Su Yu's blood vessels and soothed the pain and injuries caused by his soul.
No matter how the ghost faces tried to bite him, they couldn't harm Su Yu in the slightest.
Finally, a miserable scream sounded from within the cave. The Ghost Buddha screamed as it was turned into ashes by the Lightning Beast from the inside out.
At that moment, the ghostly face faded away.
However, it did not disappear. Instead, it turned into a mark the size of a palm and sank into Su Yu's chest.
Su Yu felt a burning sensation in his chest. When he lowered his head to take a look, his expression changed!
The ghostly face had turned into a mark that was imprinted on his chest!
From afar, it looked as if a ghostly face had drilled out from Su Yu's chest!
Su Yu immediately used his Vital Energy in an attempt to force the ghost face out. However, the ghost face didn't budge at all. It was as if it was embedded in Su Yu's chest.
He tried to use his soul energy, but it was useless.
After that, Su Yu tried many times, but he could not do anything to the ghostly face!
"How is this possible?" Su Yu's expression changed several times. The owner of the ghostly face was already dead, so why did the ghostly face enter his body?
Was this a great hidden danger? Su Yu became restless.
At this moment, the little demoness spoke weakly, "It's a curse. The Ghost Buddha's Divine Seal is a curse, and the stronger the master's resentment is, the stronger the curse will be. It will then reside in the body of the target of the resentment and slowly devour the target's soul energy until the target's soul is exhausted and he dies!"
Su Yu's expression became gloomy when he heard this. It seemed like his soul was really weakening, but the Divine Nine-Dragon Cauldron didn't react at all!
His heart sank. Whenever his soul suffered any harm, the Divine Nine-Dragon Cauldron would protect him. But now, his soul was still weakening. The Divine Nine-Dragon Cauldron couldn't detect any danger, so it wouldn't take any action!
As he thought of this, Su Yu furrowed his brows. He had unexpectedly provoked such a troublesome existence!
"Is there a way to resolve it?" Su Yu asked gravely.
The little demoness shook her head. Her eyes were filled with regret. She should have shared half of the curse's burden!
Was there no way to resolve it?
"Unless your soul energy reaches a higher level than the Ghost Buddha's, the curse will disappear on its own," the little demoness added. However, this was impossible.
While the ghost face was devouring souls unceasingly, trying to raise one's soul energy was just a pipe dream!
Su Yu's expression softened slightly. If this was the case, then the situation wouldn't be too bad. After all, he still had the Heart Refining Mortal Dust Liquid, and as long as he quickly produced a large amount of it, he should be able to offset his soul energy's loss.
Moreover, if he didn't personally investigate whether there was a way to resolve the curse, how would he know for sure?
Su Yu went back to the basement to verify whether the Ghost Buddha was really dead.
It was only when he discovered that the Ghost Buddha was just a pile of ashes, without even a soul left behind that Su Yu felt at ease. Otherwise, if he allowed such a dangerous enemy to roam freely in this world, he would sooner or later suffer a great disaster!
When the lightning beast saw Su Yu, it roared several times with hostility before it reluctantly went back into the Five Elemental Strong Thunder Seal.
Su Yu furrowed his brows slightly … Even after refining it for such a long time, the lightning beast still hasn't been completely tamed. It seems like the Five Elemental Strong Thunder Seal needs to be refined further and evolve into a semi-manufactured fairy artifact.
After he left the cave, Su Yu pondered how he should send the little demoness to the Red Blood Palace's headquarters. If the headquarters' people discovered him and followed him, then he would be in great trouble!
However, when he went back to the ground, he didn't see the little demoness anywhere.
His heart tightened slightly, and he wondered … Did the Three Murders Gang's people capture her?
However, he had just left for a moment, and he had been paying attention to any disturbances on the ground. So, how was it possible for someone to capture the little demoness without him noticing it?
All of a sudden, Su Yu noticed a scarlet pendant on the ground. It was the little demoness' Fire Essence Jade.
Su Yu grabbed it, and it was only now that he noticed that there was a sound transmitting jade pendant on it.
Could it be an urgent message from the little demoness? Su Yu immediately pressed it against his ear and listened to the message on it solemnly.
"You are a b * stard! You touched and hugged me, so I won't let you off! I will give you the Fire Essence Jade, as I don't want to owe you for saving my life! Humph! "
Su Yu smiled. It seemed like the little demoness hadn't been captured.
When he assumed that the little demoness had finished speaking, the little demoness spoke once again, "Humph! Moreover, I must inform you that I'm not a little girl, as I'm already eighteen years old. "
Su Yu was startled by this, and he couldn't help but wonder … What does she mean by this last sentence?
He was aware that the little demoness had eaten a spiritual object by mistake when she was young, which caused her body to remain at the age of ten years old. So, her age was really the same as Su Yu's.
Su Yu couldn't understand this at all, so he shook his head and looked at the Fire Essence Jade in his palm.
This jade pendant was worth a million crystals!
This was the first time that he had ever received such a precious object, and the little demoness's value had exceeded his expectations once again.
Since she had given it to him, Su Yu wouldn't refuse it, so he put it away and went back to the elixir store.
In a luxurious palace in the inner city, the little demoness was lying on a bed, and she was surrounded by beautiful maids. Moreover, all of them were at the Divine Master Realm.
They all wore respectful expressions and were treating her injuries carefully. They didn't dare to be careless in the slightest, as if the little demoness had a lofty status.
An old man was sitting calmly on a stone table in front of the bed. He wore a calm expression, and it was impossible to discern his cultivation level.
"Old Lan, why didn't you help me earlier? Or, why didn't you give me an even more powerful treasure? I would have surely been able to blast the Ghost Buddha into smithereens! You caused me to suffer such injuries!" The little demoness pouted her mouth, while her face was filled with resentment.
Old Lan smiled amiably. "This was the Cliff Master's order, and he instructed us to only help you when your life is in danger. He didn't give you an excessively powerful treasure, which is why you can grow stronger. Otherwise, what will you do if you face powerful enemies alone in the future?"
The little demoness bared her teeth and said fiercely, "I'm already very powerful, as I can fight against a Divine Master at the Level Nine Fairy Realm!"
Old Lan chuckled and said, "The lad who saved you is just a Level Three Fairy Realm, yet he can easily kill the Ghost Buddha."
If she hadn't heard, she wouldn't have known. As soon as she stopped, she almost jumped out of bed. "What? That lad is just a Level Three Fairy Realm? How can he be so powerful? "
"Hehe, Young Cliff Master, don't you trust my eyes? That lad has been lying in ambush since the beginning, and he used an extremely powerful technique to control the underground world's situation. Your every move was under his control! "Old Lan's eyes flickered as he spoke.
The little demoness's eyes flickered, and she squinted. "Are you saying that that b * stard has been spying on me since the beginning? Did he save me on purpose in order to gain my favor? "
Her identity was quite special, so she couldn't rule out the possibility that opportunistic people like her would use such a technique.
Old Lan muttered to himself irresolutely, then shook his head. "No, based on my observations, his original intention was to rescue the trapped hostages, and saving you was just a matter of convenience. Otherwise, such a scheming person would have already been killed by the Young Cliff Master. Why would he still be alive?"
A wisp of killing intent flickered in Old Lan's eyes.
The suspicion in the little demoness's eyes disappeared, and she heaved a sigh of relief. She bit her lips and asked hesitantly, "Then, Old Lan, do you know his identity?"
Old Lan looked at the little demoness in surprise. According to his memory, his little master rarely took the initiative to show concern for others. However, this suspicion only lasted for a moment, and he didn't take it to heart.
"No, I was just concerned about whether he would harm you, so I didn't try to see through his attire to avoid being discovered by him." Old Lan shook his head.
Disappointment flickered in the little demoness's eyes. She then shook her head and said, "Forget it, I won't think about it anymore. I have already compensated him, so I don't owe him any favors."
…
