This Taoist Master is too Frivolous

Chapter 25: Chapter 25: Little Madam, you can’t run away!

Translator: 549690339

The sense of suffocation grew stronger. The Water Ghost struggled desperately, using the Water Manipulation Skill to stir up currents at the riverbed, trying to break free from Xu Yang’s bind.

But all of it was futile.

Large amounts of water from the Yellow River seeped into her mouth and nose, making her cough violently.

“Cough, cough, cough, cough…”

“Impossible!”

“How can you manipulate water?”

“And even stronger than me…cough, cough, cough, cough!”

A sudden fear of “drowning” arose in her heart. The Water Ghost tried her best to swim to the surface, but Xu Yang just laughed while pulling her ankle, “What’s the rush? We’re at the bottom of the river already; let’s play a bit longer!”

“Ding!”

“The Water Ghost is frightened. +10 merit points, +1 Water Manipulation Skill.”

“Ding!”

“The Water Ghost is frightened…”

As the “Water Manipulation Skill +1” notification kept ringing, Xu Yang felt that he was getting more and more comfortable in the water. A thought was all it took to dissolve the swirling currents and turn them against the Water Ghost.

He had already sunk to the riverbed.

Yanking the Water Ghost’s ankle, he sneered, “You Water Ghosts love doing this to people… Now that you’ve fallen into my hands, dying by the same method you use to harm people serves you right!”

“Ding!”

“The Water Ghost is frightened. +10 merit points, +1 Water Manipulation Skill.”

“Ding…”

The consecutive system alerts were enough to illustrate the Water Ghost’s fear at that moment.

Seeing that struggling was useless, she tried to seduce Xu Yang, transforming her yin energy into a beautiful woman. She lowered her head, looking at Xu Yang with alluring eyes, “Daoist Master…”

Pu!

Xu Yang raised his peach wood sword and stabbed it right at the Water Ghost’s face!

The Water Ghost screamed while half of her face was burnt away by the pure Yang energy attached to the peach wood sword.

“Damn it!”

“How dare you disgust me?”

Xu Yang burst into a stream of curses.

Because he could see through the Water Ghost’s illusory technique, he still saw her face covered with weeds and oozing pus!

In reality,

What the Water Ghost showed was merely an illusion. Using yin energy to bewitch people’s minds was not true transformation magic. While this trick could work on ordinary people, it was useless against martial artists and Daoist practitioners.

A turn of a Daoist practitioner’s spell would easily dispel it.

Once in the realm of Daoism, one could even cultivate the Heavenly Eye. At that time, a glance from the Heavenly Eye would make it difficult for any yin spirits and malevolent beings to hide!

As for martial artists, with their robust blood and qi,

Yin energy had a hard time affecting them.

Unless the yin spirits and ghostly beings were much stronger and more powerful than their opponents!

Meanwhile,

Ashore,

Ma Long looked at the murky waters of the Yellow River and wailed, “Xu Yang…”

“Xu Yang, come out quickly!”

But there was no sign of Xu Yang on the water’s surface.

“Help… Is anyone there? My brother fell into the water! Please, someone!”

He shouted loudly, picking up his phone to call the police.

At that moment, a black off-road vehicle pulled up on the roadside not far away.

There were two people in the car.

A man and a woman.

The man was grinning, saying, “Bai Wei, is it really necessary? I saw that hot search on the internet too… It’s probably just that fisherman trying to attract attention. Once the onlookers leave, he’ll surely run!”

“Better safe than sorry!”

The woman called “Bai Wei” shook her head: “The Water Ghost is hiding in the water, and we can’t deal with it for now. But we need to make sure it can’t harm anyone… Huh? There’s someone on the shore!”

Before she could finish her sentence, her gaze shifted to look outside the car.

Through the car window.

She saw Ma Long, who was lying on the riverbank, dozens of meters away.

The two of them quickly got out of the car and walked towards Ma Long. In the night breeze, they heard a voice coming from the darkness —

“Hey!”

“Is this no?”

“I want to report…l’m at the Yellow River right now, where the corpse was just fished out!”

“My friend was dragged into the river by a ghost…”

Ma Long was calling the police when a voice suddenly came from behind him: “No need to call the police. They can’t handle this situation, even if they come!”

It was the man and woman who had walked over.

Ma Long turned around, feeling like he had found a lifesaver, and said, “Brother, sister… please save my brother. He was dragged into the river by a ghost!”

The man and woman shared a solemn glance.

The man was about to take off his coat and jump into the water when the woman stopped him and scolded, “What are you doing? The situation is unclear, are you going to die?”

The man hesitated and said, “Bai Wei, we need to save him!”

“Only a martial arts Grandmaster or a top Daoism expert can deal with the Water Ghost in the water. What else can entering the water do for us, other than sending one more person to their death?”

The woman was very calm and asked Ma Long, “How long has your friend been in the water?”

“Five or six minutes, I guess?”

From the conversation between the two, Ma Long could tell they were special, and he immediately begged for help: “Both of you, please save my brother!”

Five or six minutes?

Hearing this answer, the woman silently shook her head.

Even if it were her, it was more likely she would die if she had been dragged into the water by the Water Ghost for so long, let alone an ordinary person.

She asked again, “What exactly happened? Tell me in detail!”

Ma Long choked up and recounted how he heard someone calling for help and how he went into the water to save them.

When they heard that Ma Long had dragged the Water Ghost to the shore and even gave it “mouth-to-mouth resuscitation,” both the man and woman were dumbfounded.

Ma Long continued, “After 1 blew one mouthful of air and inhaled a mouthful of pus and blood, I realized she was not a person, but a ghost. I immediately ran… My brother… He… He…”

Ma Long pointed at his head and said, “He’s not well and hasn’t recovered yet. He not only didn’t run away, but he actually stopped the ghost and asked her why she wanted to harm people. Then a big wave came in the water and swept my brother away. I searched in the water but couldn’t find him.”

“Wuuuu…”

“Xu Yang!”

“My brother… Your grandpa hasn’t even gone cold yet, and now you’re gone too!”

Sigh!

The man let out a long sigh and patted Ma Long’s shoulder, “Little brother, grieve properly… It’s cold at night, put on your clothes first. After daylight, we’ll arrange for someone to search for your brother’s body.”

Whoosh!

Just then.

The water surface suddenly exploded.

“Help… Help me…”

A cry for help came from the center of the river.

It was the Water Ghost. She broke through the surface of the water and swam forward rapidly. She cried out in terror as she swam.

“Damn it!”

Ma Long, who had been crying, suddenly stood up upon hearing the cry for help, and angrily shouted at the ghostly figure on the water, “You damn thing, how dare you cry for help?”

As soon as his words fell

Whoosh!

The water surface exploded again.

A human figure leaped out of the water behind the ghostly figure.

He laughed loudly, like a villain, and coldly said, “Little lady, just surrender obediently. You can’t run away!”
