Chapter 176: The Yin-Communicating Meng Family
“Not good……”
When Hu Ma felt the cold Yin Qi, his heart suddenly trembled.
The people from the two gangs were now showing different reactions. The Red Lantern Lady Association, upon winning, were celebrating with joy, eager to set off firecrackers.
On the Blue Robe Gang's side, they were as if they had lost a parent, in a state of panic and confusion, completely unaware of their own future.
Of course, there were also some who had already decided that the Bluerobe Gang would lose and had prepared in advance.
Some had even joined the Red Lantern Association, appearing sad but actually happy, as they had chosen the right side early on.
However, in the midst of their excitement and frustration, they all forgot one crucial Existence: The Bluerobe Evil Ghost.
This blue-robed lord of the Bluerobe Gang, was the most critical figure in this magical duel. Once he lost, how could he acceptit?
The Bluerobe Red Lantern Duel, the winner would build a temple, while the loser would have no place to stand.
Just how much importance did he place onthis duel? Fromthecost He Had Spent Inviting People, One Could See A Clue.
At that moment, when that cold snort echoed, everyone’s Heart Shivered.
They hurriedly looked up and saw ontheother Side ofthearena, hanging OntheBluerobe Gang's side, was a Bluecloth with The Face ofThe Blue-robed lord, representingtheevil ghost.
Now, under the influence of a cold Yinforce, the surroundings, including the fire basins and torches, became eerily cold and Sinistering.
The originally stiff mask now appeared to change expression, as if eyes were opening and the corners of the mouth were curling up.
The sudden fangs were intersecting, as if ready to devour.
“Not good, The Bluerobe Lord is angry……”
Only then Did Everyone Realize That The Bluerobe Lord HadLostTheDuel, But RefusedTo AcceptIt.
“Rustle……”
Before Anyone CouldReact, fromTheBluerobe Gang’s Side, A GustOfCold YinWind Had Already Risen.
This yinwind Was Dry, Strange, and had a kindOf Unspoken SinisteringChill, withSomeUnclear SinisterLaughterMixedIn, RollingThroughTheArena.
AmongTheBluerobe Gang, Instantly, Four or five people JumpedUp, MouthsOpen, Shouting:
“Bluerobe Lord Spare……”
The second word of “Spare” hadnot yetcomeOutWhenThey Suddenlly Collapsed, TheirBodies RapidlyShrunk.
As IfAllTheirBloodAndMeatHadBeenInstantlyDrained, OnlyA Skeleton Remained, WrappedInBaggyClothes, SilentlyCollapsedOnTheGround.
These were the ones who hadlostTheDuelButNotDied, and thoseHelpingTheBluerobe LordArrangeTheDuel.
UponSeeingThisScene, TheBluerobe Gang’s Members Stunned, Suddenly Shouted, AndScatteredInAllDirections.
TheBluerobe Lord HadGoneMad, VentingHisAngerOnHisOwnPeople……

Even TheirSoulsWereSuckedOutByTheGrimacingMask, SwallowedDown.
Only a Group OfStrangeDisciples, WearingBluePants, Braids, AndRedMarksOnTheirForeheads, RemainedExpressionless, SlightlyPanicked, ButDidNotMove.
These wereTheBluerobe Gang’sYoungDisciples, SimilarToTheRedLanternLadyAssociation’sRedIncenseDisciples.

(End OfChapter)
At the same time, the blue-robed evil spirit that had been forced off the arena suddenly erupted in rage. A rolling blast of yin wind, carrying even more intense fury, pressed toward the stage.
"Crack... Crack..."
The two forces collided and intertwined on the wooden arena, twisting the entire structure into a pretzel.
Countless splinters and tattered pieces of cloth flew about in all directions.
This was a direct confrontation between the two most powerful evil spirits in the Mingzhou region. Everyone present was skilled, but just standing on the side, they felt suppressed and terrified, unable to open their eyes.
Hu Ma, without hesitation, quickly retreated to a distance, not even looking back.
Although he was quite curious to see what a fight between beings of the Red Lantern Lady's level would look like, he still had to prioritize his own safety first...
As he swiftly fled to a distance from the arena, he caught a glimpse of Mr. Xu, the old accountant who owed him twenty Blood Food pills, even Chief Zheng and the other familiar and close innkeepers, all of whom were now hugging their heads and fleeing even faster than he was.
However, on the opposite side of their hurried escape route, a group of people suddenly rushed over, and he heard a loud shout:
"Red Fragrance Disciples, where are you? Help our Lady chop up these evil spirits who lost both the challenge and the face!"
"..."
"Yang Gong?"
Hu Ma looked up and saw Yang Gong and a group of disciples with red sashes around their waists, striding over from the other side of the street, against the fleeing crowd.
Each of them exuded a chilling aura of killing intent, pulling out incense and sticking it on their heads.
In front of them, the two guardians on either side did not move, but each cast a spell, holding up the red lantern.
On the side of the blue-robed evil spirit, the blue-robed boys also raised their heads with a demonic aura, ready to rush onto the arena.
"Indeed, the way people make a living has changed..."
Hu Ma thought to himself. Although he had already acknowledged Yang Gong as a good brother, at this moment, he only fled even faster.
No one knew how this battle would turn out. Originally, they chose to duel to avoid such direct combat, but in the end, they couldn't escape it. The direct duel between the Red Lantern Lady and the blue-robed evil spirit might even tear the town apart.
They fled for more than a dozen zhang without stopping, wishing they could escape the town directly.
But at this moment, they suddenly heard a clear and resonant chime sound from outside the town.
The sound was clear and melodious, not very loud, but exceptionally clear, as if a cool breeze had been cast into the town from afar.
The two sides, the Red Lantern Lady and the blue-robed evil spirit, who had just clashed in a bloody and intense battle, seemed to be significantly weakened by this sound.
The people from the Red Lantern Lady's side, who were fleeing, also seemed to be stunned by some kind of magic, the thought of fleeing instantly disappearing from their minds. They stood there in a daze, their eyes filled with awe and reverence, looking toward the entrance of the town.
Then, they saw a group of people faintly approaching the town under the cover of night.
They seemed to be living people, but were shrouded by a misty aura that no one could see clearly.
They could only vaguely see someone holding a banner, someone holding a staff, someone striking a chime, and someone carrying a sedan chair, with ghostly shadows frolicking and leaping beside the chair.
Seeing such a group, everyone felt an inexplicable sense of fear. The quick-witted ones were startled, suddenly lowering their heads and tightly closing their eyes.
Hu Ma was the same. At first glance, he was startled.
He thought of his grandmother.
When his grandmother was returning to the ancestral hall, there had also been such a group of ceremonial processions to receive her, similar to this array.
However, the one receiving his grandmother seemed to be of even higher specifications.
He couldn't clearly say what the difference was, but he vaguely felt that the one receiving his grandmother was more mysterious and on a larger scale.
But he also realized where these people were from and hastily lowered his head.
He firmly remembered what he had seen with this one glance.
This group of processions, surrounding the central sedan chair, was like a mirage, with heavy shadows, carrying a yin and gloomy aura, entering Zhu Men Town from west to east, and quickly arriving at the center of the town.
When they reached the front of the arena, the fierce battle between the Red Lantern Lady and the blue-robed evil spirit had already ceased.
Even the Red Fragrance Disciples and guardians, and the blue-robed boys, all knelt down.
Inside the sedan chair, a light laugh sounded, followed by a hand extending out.
As this hand extended, two streams of yin wind formed a vortex in front of the sedan chair, slowly converging.
Vaguely, in front of the sedan chair, a woman in red robes with a cloud bun and a man in blue robes with a green face and fangs appeared.
Both of them knelt obediently in front of the sedan chair, their bodies huddled together, receiving the gentle caress of the hand.
"If you want to duel, then duel. If you lose, you must accept it."
"If you duel and still want to fight, what's the point of the duel?"
"..."
The voice inside the sedan chair spoke lightly, as if mocking.
The two figures kneeling in front of the sedan chair bowed to the person inside, not daring to have the slightest complaint.
