Gurgling…
Suddenly, Jiang Dao felt a strong hunger in his stomach, as if he hadn't eaten for three days and three nights.
"Hungry, so hungry…"
His eyes were red as he looked at the bowl of lotus seed porridge that he had prepared on the table. He grabbed the porcelain bowl and drank it all in one gulp. However, it still did not satisfy his hunger. He immediately walked out of the room and asked someone to prepare dinner.
An hour later.
Jiang Dao sat on the chair and ate heartily, as if he was the reincarnation of a hungry ghost.
The roast chicken that had just come out of the oven was eaten in a few bites.
He grabbed the huge pork knuckle and ate it in three bites.
He picked up a large bowl of meat soup and gulped it down.
The terrifying way he ate made the servant girl Bi Yu who was serving him at the side secretly shocked. She almost thought that the young master was possessed by an evil spirit.
Finally!
Jiang Dao burped and put down the plate. The hunger in his stomach gradually disappeared.
"Bi Yu, pack up!"
He took out a scarf and wiped his mouth.
The maid Bi Yu quickly went forward to clean up.
"I wonder if I'll be this hungry every time I level up in the future? If that was the case, the way he ate was too ugly.”
Jiang Dao walked out of the room with a frown.
However, even though he was hungry, his terrifying strength was not fake at all.
Especially the muscles on his body. They couldn't be seen when he was wearing a long robe, but once he took off his clothes, he could see that the lines were even and the muscles were bulging. His back, arms, and thighs were all powerful.
Walking in his courtyard, he casually picked up a stick. With a shake of his hand, a strong wind whistled and suddenly swept it towards the stone bench at the side.
Kacha!
The entire stone bench exploded on the spot as if it had been smashed by a giant hammer, and stone fragments flew everywhere.
Jiang Dao was extremely satisfied.
The power of this move alone had already surpassed Pang Lin's full-strength attack.
And this was just something he had casually created.
If it was combined with a unique skill, the power of this rod would be even more terrifying!
Suddenly, his ears twitched and he heard some sounds.
Jiang Dao put down the Eyebrow Rod and walked out of the courtyard. He came to a corridor not far away and looked into the distance.
A few young and beautiful maidservants were rubbing their tears and sobbing softly. They looked unwilling as they were led by an old maid towards the old Taoist priest.
Jiang Dao's face instantly darkened.
The old thing is harming innocent women again!
However, what could the Jiang family do now?
He could only act as an accomplice and let that old thing do whatever he wanted!
Jiang Dao took a deep breath and forced himself not to watch. He was furious and turned to leave.
Unknowingly, it was already the time to light up.
The servant girl Biyu came over to undress Jiang Dao and helped him enter the bedroom.
Jiang Dao lay on the bed and fell into deep thought.
She wondered if she would have the same dream again when she fell asleep tonight.
The light was dim, and time passed.
Hengzhou City was exceptionally quiet at night.
Jiang Dao quickly fell asleep.
The night passed peacefully.
The next morning.
Jiang Dao suddenly opened his eyes and sat up on the bed. He frowned and looked surprised.
"Are you alright?"
Was his nightmare cured?
"Could it be because I've been practicing martial arts for 60 years? My blood is so strong that the little ghosts in my dreams don't dare to get close to me?”
Jiang Dao was instantly delighted and felt that his future was promising.
Suddenly, Jiang Dao heard a commotion coming from the front yard. He frowned and got up from his bed.
"Bi Yu, what happened this time?"
Jiang Dao shouted as he got dressed.
The door creaked open, and the servant Bi Yu came in with a panicked expression. She said in fear," Young Master, last night…last night, an evil spirit came to the residence. Many of the servant girls in the residence died.”
"What?"
Jiang Dao's expression changed slightly and he quickly put on his clothes.
Not long after.
Jiang Dao appeared in the front yard.
He saw ten guards gathered together, their expressions heavy.
All the servants and servants had also appeared, their faces filled with panic as they discussed animatedly.
The head of the family, Jiang Dalong, had a gloomy expression. He wore a watermelon hat and a black short coat. He was holding two huge walnuts in his hands and staring at the corpses in the courtyard.
Taoist Changbai was carefully examining the corpses.
Without exception, all of them died horribly. Their bodies were shriveled, as if their essence had been sucked dry by something.
"Father, Pang shi."
Jiang Dao walked over from afar.
"Young Master."
Pang Lin asked in a low voice.
Jiang Dalong nodded at him and turned to Taoist Changbai." Taoist priest, where is this evil spirit now?" Are you still in the residence?"
Taoist Changbai's expression was ugly. Soon, he finished the examination and stood up. He sighed and said," Master Jiang, let's talk about this in private."”
"Alone?"
Jiang Dalong's expression changed.
Was the situation that serious?
He naturally understood what Taoist Changbai meant.
Talking alone meant that he didn't want others to hear it to avoid causing panic.
In other words, even Taoist Changbai might not be able to deal with the evil spirit this time.
"Alright, please follow me, Taoist priest!"
Jiang Dalong's tone was heavy as he led the Taoist priest to the study.
Jiang Dao's expression changed slightly and he immediately followed.
Not long after, they arrived at Jiang Dalong's study.
Taoist Changbai sat down, and Jiang Dalong told Jiang Dao to close the door tightly. No one was allowed to enter.
"Taoist priest, please say it directly!"
Jiang Dalong cupped his hands.
Taoist Changbai's gaze was gloomy as he said," The Jiang family is in trouble this time. Even I might not be able to deal with the things they provoked!”
"What kind of evil spirit is this?"
Jiang Dalong hurriedly asked.
" I call it the Spirit Child. It's extremely strange. Wherever it appears, it's always a disaster. It will cause nearly a thousand people to die tragically. What's even more terrifying is that there's not just one Spirit Child. Once it appears, it's a nest. There's even an even more terrifying Great Evil Spirit controlling these Evil Spirits…"
" I've traveled all over Daye Dynasty. I've only met spiritual children twice, but nearly a thousand people died in both cases. One time, a sect with a history of three hundred years disappeared in two days, and the other time, half of an ancient city was killed!”
"What?"
Jiang Dalong was shocked." Doesn't this mean that our Jiang family is doomed? Daoist Priest, please save the Jiang family."
He hurriedly cupped his hands and begged. At the same time, he quickly took out a stack of banknotes from his sleeve and stuffed it into Taoist Changbai's hand." Taoist priest, if our Jiang family can survive this calamity, we are willing to donate more than half of our assets to you.”
Jiang Dao was also secretly surprised. He didn't know if the old Daoist was deliberately scaring them or if it was true.
He stood at the side, not daring to answer for a moment.
"It's not difficult to deal with the spirit child. What's difficult is the existence behind it. It might even be a terrifying force.”
Taoist Changbai said.
His palm could not help but grab the silver note that was stuffed into his hand. Just by its thickness, he knew how much it was. He quietly stuffed it into his sleeve.
"Old Master Jiang, this old Daoist and the Jiang family are fated. Right now, I can only do my best to protect you for as long as I can. If it really can't be done, don't blame this old Daoist.”
"That's right, that's right. As long as Taoist priest does his best, it will be fine!”
Jiang Dalong cupped his hands repeatedly.
"Daoist Priest, you just said that there's a terrifying force behind the spirit child?”
Jiang Dao suddenly asked.
"Not bad!"
Taoist Changbai nodded gently." Otherwise, I really can't imagine that these spirit children would suddenly appear and disappear. Moreover, after each of their actions, there would be no traces left behind.”
"Then what kind of power are they?"
"I'm not sure."
Taoist Changbai shook his head." Besides, evil spirits have another characteristic. They hide during the day and only come out at night. So, even if we want to find them now, we can't!”
