Chapter 89: The Other Demon General

“His healing ability relies on absorbing the life force of people possessed by low-level ghosts as a foundation,” Chen Fengshi explained simply. Changing Fungal Demon to ghost always made him feel very uncomfortable. Even though it was clearly just a different name, he felt one was a lie and the other was the truth.

The subdued Liu Shuzhi kept slapping the ground, struggling with all his might and smashing the bricks on the ground into pieces. It was not until the Fungal Demon cells in his body were completely devoured that he finally quieted down and fell into a coma.

Chen Fengshi really wanted to verify the relationship between memory loss and being strangled, but Liu Shuzhi’s neck was too hard to strangle, so he had to save this question for another chance to verify.

Sister Yao’s focus was entirely on Liu Shuzhi’s injured eye. Seeing it completely healed, she simply felt this ability was awesome!

“Old Chen, the scars on my body have all disappeared, is it the same for me?”

“Ah…” Chen Fengshi paused, feeling a bit complicated. The Golden Power of Life had also made him experience this kind of thing.

“Old Chen, how about Liu Shuzhi learns spells from you too, and we form an iron triangle to exorcise ghosts together!” Sister Yao was full of enthusiasm, and this idea really made Chen Fengshi’s heart skip a beat in an instant…

Although Sister Yao and Liu Shuzhi did not have the Power of Life, what they possessed was the combat power of a Tier 9 Demon General! Although their stamina was limited without a Parasite, they were definitely very strong helpers. This way, he wouldn’t have to worry about fighting them two again.

However, thinking of what Liu Shuzhi had done before, he always felt a bit chilled. Moreover, this matter was of great importance, and he couldn’t just decide like this.

Chen Fengshi thought for a moment. Fearing that Liu Shuzhi would wake up at any time, he said, “Don’t call me Old Chen, call me Golden Blood.”

“Damn—” Sister Yao burst out laughing directly, holding her chest as she looked at him and said, “What taste is this! Did you come up with it yourself?”

“I’ve always been low-key, but I couldn’t resist the kind praise from my peers, so I had to accept this nickname.” Chen Fengshi was troubled that he couldn’t explain the use of the nickname, but Sister Yao was still thinking about her idea. It seemed she wasn’t just a three-minute passion, and she urged, “How about it? Let Liu Shuzhi be your apprentice too?”

“Don’t say it as if—you don’t even need to ask his wishes.”

“He will definitely listen to me now! You see, he relies on me for food, drink, and housing, not to mention knowing his mother has kidney disease, I also promised to cover the expenses. He is now my bodyguard, thug, plus playmate, and when he gets a driver’s license, he’ll be my driver too.” Sister Yao was simply full of confidence, while Chen Fengshi just wanted to say that the tragic Liu Shuzhi had no chance to choose his life at all before being bought off by Sister Yao’s money.

“We’ll talk about it tomorrow. I consumed a lot of magic power just now…”

“Let’s go, I’ll treat you to a meal.”

“…This is not a problem that can be solved by eating.” Chen Fengshi thought to himself, could he eat with them? He just didn’t want Liu Shuzhi to know anything, so he instructed, “Don’t mention me to Liu Shuzhi for now. Wait a couple of days to make sure there are no remnant souls of Evil Ghosts hidden in his body, then we’ll talk about exorcising ghosts.”

Chen Fengshi got on the motorcycle, ready to leave.

“Hey—” Sister Yao stood up, pointing at both sides, and complained dissatisfiedly, “Are you just going to leave me in this dark place? I’ll be scared! Don’t you have any manners?”

“…Right, you’re scared, you’re afraid it’s too dark and if bad guys come you won’t see clearly, and you’ll accidentally beat them to death, right?” Chen Fengshi started the engine and revved the gas in annoyance. Knowing that Sister Yao was still excited and couldn’t wait to catch ghosts again, she didn’t want to let him go, so he told her, “I’ll call you tomorrow, don’t mention me to Liu Shuzhi.”

“Hey—” Sister Yao shouted again, but Chen Fengshi waved his hand and drove away without looking back. She could only give a small hum of dissatisfaction: “Ghost knows if he’s in a hurry to find a woman…”

Chen Fengshi was going to find someone, and the one he was looking for was indeed a woman.

Things on his side weren’t going smoothly. During the time he took Sister Yao away, the parasitized Liu Shuzhi must have reported the situation at that time to the Fungal Demon Main Body.

So, how was the clearing operation at the bar going, since Little An still hadn’t contacted him directly?

“Canyue, how’s the situation on Little An’s end?”

“No information. The communication device might be damaged or there’s no signal.” Canyue’s tone sounded clearly anxious, yet she still tried to comfort Chen Fengshi, “But it’s fine! It will definitely be fine! Empress just said that if communication is interrupted, don’t worry, they will contact us once they clear the target. She also said, don’t go over there, just follow the original plan and clear the targets.”

Fine? Fine what…

Chen Fengshi thought to himself that the Fungal Demon’s Demon Generals pulled out their guns at the drop of a hat. Liu Shuzhi was firing a rifle while parasitized just now, and he still had lingering fears. How could they not worry before figuring out Little An and the others’ situation?

Chen Fengshi felt a bit annoyed. He happened to see an old lady selling cigarettes by the road ahead, so he casually picked a box with a nice-looking package, parked his motorcycle by the road, smoked, and waited for Little An’s news.

He knew most of these were fake cigarettes, but he didn’t care because he didn’t have a cigarette addiction anyway, and he probably couldn’t tell the difference between real and fake cigarettes.

The night was already deep, and the moon lazily slept behind the clouds.

The street was also quiet. The old lady selling cigarettes went back into the neighborhood after the transaction.

Chen Fengshi leaned against the motorcycle, smoking. The smoke drifted away slowly. His starry eyes were sometimes blurred by the smoke, and sometimes bright as stars.

The night was quiet, but his thoughts could not calm down.

After only a few puffs, Chen Fengshi felt his throat burning uncomfortably, so he threw most of the cigarette on the ground, stepped on it to put it out, and threw the unfinished part directly into the trash can.

“Isn’t this just being sick?” Chen Fengshi felt he was being overly melancholic and something was wrong with him. Since Little An had instructed Canyue and specifically told him not to go help, she definitely had enough judgment of the situation. She just wanted to achieve the result of both sides independently solving their targets, so what was he doing worrying blindly here?

With this time, he might as well continue clearing out Demon Generals. Or fill his stomach first, then go beat up Demon Generals.

Chen Fengshi felt he had regained his clarity, so he pulled the dark Spider-Man hood that was up to his mouth back down, and put his helmet back on.

To be honest, it was very hot. He used to think Bat and Spider-Man were pretty cool, but now he highly doubted that was just from a bystander’s perspective. For example, he was wearing a riding suit, with foam cotton inside that changed his body shape, and it was still a hot summer night…

Did he think he was cool? It was good enough that he didn’t feel like an idiot suffering for nothing!

When Chen Fengshi got on the motorcycle, he decided to change to a different hood later. It had to be a meme face that looked silly and funny. That way, he thought he could at least laugh at himself.

The motorcycle sped along the road in the night, and Chen Fengshi was still worried: he didn’t know how Little An and the others were doing.

However, he was no longer thrown off his rhythm because of it.

Their clearing plan was very urgent. He was the one who started the intense clearing operation, so he absolutely couldn’t be the one slacking off. This night, the list of targets he was responsible for in the plan was still very long.

How were Little An and the others doing?

Their situation was not going smoothly, but the scene was still under control.

After they entered the bar and booked a private room, they sent a message to Queen Huang’s Demon General. Then, a group of Demon Generals rushed over and closed the front and back doors of the bar, locked them, and split into two groups to guard the doors. Passersby outside thought it was a fight in the dark. They couldn’t get in or see anything, and they didn’t dare to provoke a group of people in black clothes and sunglasses who clearly didn’t look like good folks.

The bouncers inside the bar gathered in a group and ran downstairs. When these people passed the hallway outside the private room chosen by Little An and the others, everyone smelled a pungent odor in their noses. Then, after running a distance far or near, they all collapsed to the ground one by one as if under a spell.

In the private room, Alcohol’s face changed slightly. She took a few deep breaths. Seeing this, Little Huo hurriedly and concernedly asked, “Can you handle it?”

Alcohol took a few deep breaths, then chugged two bottles of beer in one breath, shook her head hard, stood up, put on the prepared silicone disguise Mask, clenched her fists, and cheered herself up saying, “You can do it! Let the crowd all bow down before your skirt!”

Alcohol opened the door and went out. Little Huo was stunned for a moment. Only when Little An reminded him did he hurriedly chase after her.

Alcohol went to the dance floor first. Looking at the crowd swaying there, she naturally regained her usual confidence. She tidied her hair, walked with graceful steps, and shot seductive glances in all directions, electrifying many of the men whose eyes were drawn to her and making them instantly excited.

However, perhaps the electricity in her gaze was too strong, those men felt dizzy and their bodies were swaying. They tried hard to hold their bodies up, only to find they had no strength, and fell even faster; those who tried hard to control their balance held on a little longer, and then also collapsed onto the tables.

The men were like this, and the women also felt their bodies go soft. Their heads and bodies were heating up, so hot that their minds became fuzzy, and then, they also lost consciousness and collapsed onto the tables.

Those who were further away saw these situations and found it unbelievably amazing.

Alcohol walked through the crowded dance floor, lightly jumped onto the stage, turned around, flicked her long hair, and shouted with a smile, “What does it matter if all the flowers are jealous? Where I pass, the world is drunk!”

The jumping and swaying crowd in the dance floor collapsed in patches, one after another.

Those who were far away looked at Alcohol, looked at the people collapsed all over the floor and on the tables, and some started to feel it was bizarre.

This is the information age, what kind of beauty hasn’t been seen? Any rational adult knows that a face that launches a thousand ships is just an exaggeration, or a mythologized emotion from the person who happens to like that type. How could a beauty really be so pretty that she faints so many people?

Even if she were a living demon, she couldn’t charm all the women into fainting!

This was abnormal, so the low-level Fungal Demon Sub-general Core inside the bodies of some Parasites was awakened, and red mist surged out of their bodies. Immediately after, the Fungal Demons inside more and more guests were awakened.

“Are you Heiqi?” A Parasite glared angrily at Alcohol.

However, he couldn’t hear Alcohol’s answer, because the pungent smell in his nose got stronger and stronger. Then, he felt dizzy, his body grew hot and soft, and soon he directly collapsed onto the floor.

Little Huo, wearing a mask, stood behind the stairs. At this time, he began to channel his fire-colored Power of Life. As a result, all the doors and windows in the entire building were covered by the walls in a melted state, and then solidified.

All the doors and windows leading outside were sealed shut, while the doors and windows in the way inside all turned into liquid, flowed to the floor, and solidified again.

The pungent gas created by Alcohol’s Power of Life scurried to every corner, forming an increasingly strong smell.

However, Alcohol’s body was trembling involuntarily.

The burden of using the Power of Life to this extent was heavier than she had expected!
