Then, several streaks of black fog flew out from the chaotic black fog and wrapped around Shen Luo like vines. However, Shen Luo dodged them all with his exquisite footwork.
Horse-face's body had already lit up with red light. He urged the protective white fog to try to break free.
Seeing that Shen Luo was about to reach the side of Horse-face, the chaotic black fog rolled and dispersed, and the true body of the River Suppression Beast reappeared behind Horse-face. It suddenly opened its bloody mouth, and a black vortex emerged in it. It was going to swallow him directly.
Shen Luo inwardly said, "This is bad!" She raised her hand, and waved it. A water arrow burst out of her sleeve. Three or four small thunder charms were nailed to the tip of the arrow. Then, the arrow shot towards the head of the aquatic beast with a "whiz" sound.
"Boom!" There was a thunderous sound!
Several snow-white thunderbolts flashed in the night sky again and hit the body of the river beast directly.
"Roar …"
It immediately let out a roar, and its swallowing motion also paused.
Shen Luo took this opportunity to flash to Horse-face's side and handed the Soul-hooking Iron Pen to him.
At this time, the red light on Horse-face's body had risen to the peak. As soon as the Soul-hooking Iron Pen was in his hand, a tyrannical aura burst out from his body.
Shen Luo was hit by this force and flew out directly. It took him a lot of effort to reverse his momentum with the Slanting Moon Steps. After a somersault, he stabilized his body.
He quickly looked over there and saw that Horse-face had completely escaped. Horse-face was making a gesture with one hand and holding the pen with the other. He began to write in the void.
"Since you didn't bring the Evil Dissolving Bottle, consider yourself unlucky. I have to kill you directly!" Horse-face shouted angrily.
His hands moved faster and faster. Soon, he finished writing a series of dense words. In mid-air, it turned into a blood-red page. Like an inescapable net, it surrounded the river beast from all directions and trapped it within.
Under the illumination of the red light, the blood-red chapter began to shrink quickly. The fog on the body of the river beast was also absorbed into its body. Its real body also reappeared.
"Soul Guide and Spirit Absorb, kill a hundred evil spirits!" Horse-face stood up and shouted.
The runes on the Soul Reaping Brush in his hand suddenly lit up, and the brush expanded by ten times. Like a long spear, it pierced through the forehead of the aquatic beast, and the tip of the brush came out from the back of its head.
"Aooo …"
The River Suppressing Beast let out a heart-wrenching roar. The mist around its body surged violently, but it was completely absorbed by the Soul Reaping Pen. Its flesh and bones were gradually revealed.
But very quickly, the white bones and flesh also decayed into ashes, and in the end, they scattered.
At this moment, an aura suddenly rose from the ashes of the river suppression beast. It turned into a dense black ball of mist and shot towards the west of the city.
Obviously, Soul Hooking Horse-Face hadn't noticed anything strange beforehand. When he wanted to stop him, it was already too late. After chasing after him for two steps, he suddenly staggered and almost fell to the ground. He had no choice but to give up.
Shen Luo originally wanted to go forward and check, but after a moment of hesitation, he stood in place and did not immediately go forward.
At this moment, Soul-Hooking Horse-Face stood up straight again and turned around to look at him.
Shen Luo clasped his hands and bowed to him from afar.
After a moment of hesitation, Horse-Face suddenly waved his sleeve. A light flashed on his body, and he turned back into the appearance of a white-faced scholar.
"Come with me." He strode past Shen Luo and said.
Shen Luo thought for a moment and immediately followed him.
The two of them, one in front and one behind, crossed the heavily damaged Zhenhuai Bridge and disappeared at the end of the street.
After about half an hour, Taoist Bai Shui, who had been unconscious for a long time, was rescued and woke up. He looked around blankly and found that he was surrounded by three or four figures.
"Third Elder!" He focused his eyes and immediately saw the face of one of them. He immediately called out.
That person was short, with a thin face and gray hair, but his eyes were very sharp. It was Bai Jiangfeng.
The three people next to him were an old man with a short beard, an old woman with purple eyebrows, and a hunchback. They were all elders of several reputable cultivation clans in Jianye City. Moreover, their seniority wasn't low.
"Taoist Bai Shui, what happened here?" The old man with a short beard in a brocade robe took the lead and asked.
His name was Lin Shanguo, and he was an elder of the Lin family in Jianye. The family's strength was slightly inferior to the Bai family, but his own cultivation was not below Bai Jiangfeng's.
The old woman with purple eyebrows and the hunchback were the elders of the Du Family and the Wang Family respectively. When they heard Lin Shanguo's question, they looked at each other and focused their gazes on Daoist Bai Shui.
Taoist Bai Shui was about to speak, but suddenly stopped. He looked up at Bai Jiangfeng and then said, "There are evil spirits in the city. Just now, I saw something strange in the backyard. When I went out to check, I was attacked by a water ghost and fainted …"
"That's it?" Lin Shanguo heard this simple answer and was obviously very dissatisfied.
Before Taoist Bai Shui could speak, Bai Jiangfeng frowned and asked, "If it's not that, what else could it be?"
"Taoist Bai Shui, please tell us in detail. This is for the good of Jianye," the old woman with purple eyebrows said.
"Taoist Du is right. In this time of turmoil in the city, it's better for everyone to work together. If you discover anything, don't hide it," the hunchback said with a hoarse voice.
Bai Jiangfeng hesitated for a moment, then said slowly, "Tell us in detail. There's no harm."
When Daoist Bai Shui heard this, he recounted everything he had seen and experienced before he fainted.
However, he fainted too early and knew very little. After hearing this, the others were very disappointed. They all tried to guess the identity of the white-faced scholar, but nothing came of it.
On the other side, Shen Luo had already followed Horse-Face to a secluded pavilion.
After the two sat down, the white-faced scholar stared at him for a long time before asking,
"Young man, how do you recognize me?"
Shen Luo sighed in his heart. His previous shout of "Soul Hooking Horse-Face" was too abrupt.
Their encounter in the dream was a thousand years in the future. It was obvious that Horse-Face did not recognize him.
However, Shen Luo was still slightly puzzled in his heart. He still remembered that when they'd first met on the Netherworld Altar, it was Horse-Face who'd called out his name first. At that time, he was just as puzzled as Horse-Face was right now.
"I'm Shen Luo. I've heard some legends about you before. I never thought that I would meet you today," Shen Luo had to make up a temporary reason and said.
Hearing this, Soul Hooking Horse-Face believed a little and said, "No matter what, if you didn't help before, it would have taken a lot of effort to defeat this Water Evil Spirit today."
As he spoke, he took out a black gourd from his sleeve. He seemed to have remembered that he had carelessly forgotten to bring the Evil Spirit Transformation Bottle, and a trace of embarrassment flashed between his brows.
"May I know what the Water Evil Spirit is?" Shen Luo was puzzled.
"The evil spirit in the water accumulates over the years and forms a cold Yin Evil Spirit with a certain level of intelligence. It's called Water Evil. But it's not easy to form this kind of thing. It's usually born in a river of blood where floating corpses are floating. "Soul Hooking Horse-Face took a sip of wine and explained slowly.
