The Unbeatable Uncle-Grandmaster
Chapter 117: The Ghost House
"Sir, I want to eat this."
"Sir, I want to eat this."
"Sir, this looks delicious."
“…”
On the crowded street, Yun Xi wanted to eat everything she saw. He did not look like a spirit herb that was formed at all. He was clearly a greedy little pig.
It wasn't until she was so full that she couldn't even stand up that she lay on Qin Jue's head with a satisfied expression.
Compared to Brilliance City, Divine Martial City was undoubtedly more prosperous. Cultivators could be seen everywhere on the streets. Even the roadside stall boss was probably a Heaven Stage cultivator.
To be honest, this was the Sacred Land of the Middle Continent that Qin Jue wanted to see. A small town like Dark Moon City was simply too boring.
"Beautiful, come and play."
Qin Ju: "???"
What the hell is going on? Could it be that Ma Huateng came to the Middle Continent?
Soon, Qin Jue realized that he had made a mistake. In the beautiful pavilion, several women with thick makeup constantly glanced at her flirtatiously, their eyes like wolves. He didn't have to think about knowing where they were.
"Young Master, do you want to come and have some tea to enjoy the scenery?"
"Young Master, I'm so cheap."
"Handsome…"
“…”
The women here never had the chance to see such a handsome young man. Their eyes immediately lit up, and they began to tease him one after another, resisting their urge to rush over and throw themselves at him.
“Pfft.”
Su Yan blushed and spat.
“…”
Of course, Qin Jue would not accept their offer. He's not really interested.
“Come go there.”
Qin Jue pointed into the distance as if he did not hear the women.
"Yes." Yeah."
Su Yan nodded repeatedly and was eager to leave.
Soon, they both arrived at a house. Unexpectedly, the words "Hooky House" were carved on the stone tablet outside!
Qin Jue was sure that he had not misread his words. He's a little quiet. This is the world of cultivation. Is there anyone here who's afraid of ghosts?
Actually, the so-called ghosts were just ugly Essence Souls. They're not scary at all.
However, Qin Jue also wanted to see what the haunted house in this world looked like, so she said to Su Yan, "Let's go in and see."
"Huh?"
Su Yan was stunned and looked hesitant.
"What's that?"
Qin Jue was confused. Su Yan was a Supreme Stage expert. It was impossible for him to be afraid of such a thing, right?
Moreover, he remembered that in the Wuji Mystical Realm, Su Yan was very calm and did not seem to have a shy personality.
“No... no.”
Su Yan shook his head and forced a smile.
Seeing this, Qin Jue did not think too much about it. He paid for a low-tier spirit stone and then entered the ghost house with Su Yan.
After entering the haunted house, Qin Jue finally understood what was going on. It turned out that this place was not decorated with props or staff members, but rather was projected using illusions. It was somewhat similar to the illusion created by Ma Huateng, but it was more convenient to make.
Pffts.
The lights instantly dimmed and became incomparable pitch-black. Furthermore, a cold aura spread out. Although nothing appeared, it gave off an indescribable feeling of fear.
"Rubber!"
In the darkness, heart-rending screams echoed in Qin Jue's ears, making her shudder.
If he was an ordinary person, he would most likely be frightened, but Qin Jue was not an ordinary person.
Right at this moment, Su Yan suddenly grabbed his arm and trembled slightly.
"Have you never seen a Soul Essence before?"
Qin Jue tried to break away from his arm, but he found that Su Yan's fingers clenched tightly, unwilling to let go at all.
"I have."
Su Yan said weakly, "But Soul Essence is usually not this scary."
“…”
Qin Jue smiled bitterly. “Don't worry, it's just an illusion. No need to fear.”
Even so, Su Yan still refused to let go. Qin Jue was helpless and could only let the woman grab his arm and walk forward.
"Rubber!"
Suddenly, a white-haired figure in white clothes jumped out from the side. The figure opened its bloody mouth and pounced towards the two of them. One could even vaguely see maggots rolling around in his mouth. They are like living humans!
"Aah!"
Su Yan let out a scream and subconsciously attacked the pouncing white-robed figure.
One should know that Su Yan is now a Supreme Stage expert. Although it was just an ordinary punch, its strength still could not be underestimated.
As expected, in the next second, the figure in white clothes was instantly destroyed by the terrifying spirit energy. Not only that, the remaining spirit energy continued to pierce through more than ten walls until it left a wide path in the haunted house.
“Don't come!”
Su Yan had yet to realize what he had done. He punched out repeatedly, and spirit energy flowed out from the Ghost House. In the blink of an eye, the black iron ghost house turned into a beehive. If Qin Jue did not stop him, the result would be even worse.
“Hey, hey, hey, stop. Are you trying to tear down this road?”
Qin Jue forcefully held the woman down and said without saying a word.
"Huh?"
Su Yan was stunned for a moment before he reacted. When he looked around, his face immediately turned red.
"Sorry, I—I didn't mean to."
Qin Jue: "..."
Of course I know you didn't do it on purpose. If you did, this road would have long since been torn down.
Who would have thought that the holy maiden of the Lightning Wind Sect, a Supreme Stage expert, would be feared in such a way by the illusory projection? It only made Qin Jue not know whether to laugh or cry.
Fortunately, the ghosts here are illusions. Otherwise, who knew how many innocent staff members would die right now.
"My shop!"
At that moment, the boss appeared and shouted helplessly.
“What are you doing? Pay for the damage you did to my shop! ”
The boss caught a glimpse of Qin Jue and Su Yan inside. That can't be avoided. Now that the entire haunted house was ventilated on all sides, it was hard for him not to see them.
Although the structure of this haunted house is simple, it is actually very expensive. After all, not everyone had Ma Huateng technology. Moreover, a device like Illusionary Time could only be refined by the forging of a Heaven Stage weapon.
One could only imagine how the boss felt now.
"What's wrong? What the hell is going on here?"
The intense fluctuations of spirit energy quickly attracted the imperial guards and they quickly surrounded the haunted house.
“Commander Yue, you must uphold justice for me. These two guys destroyed my store.”
Seeing the imperial army rushing over, the boss hurriedly came forward and said with snot and tears.
Hearing this, Commander Yue frowned slightly and turned to look at Qin Jue and Su Yan. "Certainly that?"
“Sorry, we didn't do it on purpose. We are willing to provide compensation.” Qin Jue explained.
"Do you know how many haunted houses this is ..."
Before he could finish his sentence, hundreds of clear high-tier spirit stones appeared in front of the boss, emitting dense spirit qi.
"Is this enough?"
Qin Jue said indifferently.
“Ya... enough.”
Originally, the boss had more to say, but was speechless because Qin Jue had given him too much.
