Chapter 74 : Kylin! That’s the Ancient Divine Beast, Kylin!
Master Qi also discovered the abnormality of the ancient sword. He was both surprised and shocked.
However, it was not the right time to be concerned about anything else. After the ancient sword pointed at him, it charged at him.
The talisman in Master Qi’s hand quickly flew at the ancient sword.
“As ordered, stand!”
“Ah…”
When the ancient sword and the talisman collided, flames were created and lit up Master Qi and the young man’s clothes.
The young man screamed, jumping while putting out the flames.
Master Qi took out a talisman from his pocket and used it to put out the fire on them.
Then, he took out a few more talismans and threw them at the ancient sword.
“As ordered, stand!”
This time, the ancient sword was finally stopped. Master Qi heaved a sigh of relief. Then, he looked at Tang Li with an unfriendly gaze. “Get out immediately.”
“Are you sure?”
After saying that, Tang Li turned around and walked out.
In the next second, the ancient sword broke free from the talismans and madly charged at Master Qi.
Swoosh! Swoosh! Swoosh!
Pfft…
“Grandmaster!”
“Ouch ~”
The screams of Master Qi and the young man resounded through the store. As the evil spirit grew stronger, the entire space was engulfed in darkness.
Tang Li, who was about to leave, was stopped by a ball of black smoke. She snorted and turned around to confront the sword.
The terrified Master Qi and the young man looked at Tang Li, who was fighting with the ancient sword, in shock. They were so immersed in watching her that they even forgot to blink.
They had never seen a person who dared to confront the evil spirit head-on without resorting to tools.
The young man asked with a trembling voice, “Master, is it possible that she is with evil too?”
Master Qi’s face turned pale. He instantly shouted at him in a low voice, “Don’t speak.”
Whether the woman in front of them was human or evil, they could not afford to offend her.
At that moment, Tang Li struck the sword with her palm. At the same time, a golden light flashed across the ancient sword. After a crisp sound was heard, a stream of black smoke materialized from the ancient sword.
The black smoke kept changing its forms until it turned into a strange-looking monster and pounced at Tang Li.
“Whoa!”
The young man widened his eyes in shock.
Even Master Qi gulped.
Just when the two of them thought that Tang Li was done for, Tang Li’s palm turned into a claw that grabbed the monster’s neck and asked in a low voice, “Where are you from? Why are you trying to harm people?”
At the next moment, an ear-piercing voice was heard from the monsters. “You humans are the ones who disturbed me and brought me out of the tomb. You greedy humans, I will make you pay.”
“Harming the innocent is not justifiable, DIE!”
After Tang Li finished speaking, two small creatures suddenly appeared out of thin air and quickly devoured the clump of black smoke.
The black smoke seemed to be shackled by something. It kept roaring and screaming, but it could not escape from the two little creatures.
The young man looked at the scene in front of him and gulped. He asked Master Qi with a trembling voice, “Master, what are those two things?”
Master Qi’s eyes widened in shock and disbelief.
After a while, he said excitedly, “Kylin! That’s the ancient divine beast, Kylin!”
“How come divine beasts are here? And how did they come out just now?”
After the young man said that, the two of them looked at Tang Li, who was standing there motionless.
Tang Li cast a cold glance at the two of them.
This look made them feel like something was clicking in their heads. Their legs went weak and they almost knelt down.
Tang Li withdrew her gaze and said to Kylin, “Kylin, hurry up.”
The two Kylins responded and swallowed the evil spirit even faster.
In less than a minute, the evil spirit that had turned into a monster was completely devoured by the two little guys.
The two little guys flew to Tang Li’s shoulder and stood on it while burping at the same time.
Linlin then said to Tang Li in a childlike voice, “Master, I feel like I’ve grown a little.”
Qiqi added, “I feel like I’ve grown up too.”
Tang Li reached out her hand and touched their heads. When she touched them, a golden light shone from the two little ones. Then, they rubbed against Tang Li’s cheeks obediently and disappeared.
After the two creatures returned to the container, Tang Li looked at Master Qi and the young man.
The two of them were still in shock. When Tang Li looked at them, they finally came back to their senses. Master Qi pointed at Tang Li and asked with trembling fingers, “You… Who are you?”
Tang Li sneered and did not answer him. Instead, she said, “Watch closely. I will show you what true mystic looks like.”
After saying that, she extended her finger and quickly drew in the air. A talisman that was glowing with golden light appeared in front of the two of them. Then, the talisman spread out and covered the entire store, dissipating all the evil spirits inside.
Looking at the golden light above his head, the young man asked Master Qi dumbfoundedly, “Master, is that some kind of evil power?”
Master Qi slapped him on the head and scolded, “Shut up. She is an orthodox master of Taoism. We are just rookies compared to her.”
After saying that, Master Qi bowed to Tang Li and said respectfully, “Grandmaster, I didn’t know that you were here. Please forgive us for our ignorance.”
After saying that, he quickly took out a small, old bag and handed it to Tang Li. “Master, this is the best thing I have. Take it as a gift from me.”
Tang Li was surprised that he had a spatial storage bag. With a wave of her finger, the spatial storage bag flew into her hand.
Master Qi was still looking at her, waiting for her forgiveness.
Tang Li tossed the bag in her hand and said with satisfaction, “For the sake of it, I’ll forgive you this time.”
“Thank you, Master. Thank you.”
Master Qi quickly added, “Since there’s nothing else for us to do, can we leave now?”
He was afraid that Tang Li would suddenly go back on her word. If she started to settle the score with him, he would be severely punished.
As Tang Li nodded, Master Qi dashed out right away.
It took the young man a few seconds to realize that his grandmaster had already run to the door. He glanced at Tang Li, who looked majestic, and quickly got up and ran out.
After Master Qi went out, everyone was first stunned by his appearance. Boss Zhang went forward and asked, “Master Qi, how’s everything inside?”
Master Qi looked embarrassed. “I’m not qualified as a master. The one inside is the true master. She was the one who dealt with the evil spirit.”
With that, he quickly left while everyone was dumbfounded.
At this moment, someone looked towards the door and suddenly asked, “Hey, where’s Fourth Master?”
Qi Yihan had already gone in when Master Qi came out.
As soon as Tang Li lifted the curtains, she bumped into Qi Yihan, who was striding over.
The tip of her nose hit the man’s hard chest. Tang Li screamed and instinctively leaned backward. Just as she was about to fall, she was pulled back by a strong arm.
After Tang Li regained her balance, she complained, “Your chest is really hard.”
Qi Yihan let go of her and sized her up before asking, “Are you alright?”
“Are you asking about my nose or the evil spirit inside?”
“Both.”
Satisfied, Tang Li lowered her hand and told him with a smile, “Not only am I fine, but I also found out that there is something I need at Mr. Zhang’s house.. Don’t you think it’s a coincidence?”
