The Curse of the Royal City: The Entire City Falls Victim

Wang City.

At the top of a skyscraper, the night wind howled.

Wind Ghost stood at the edge of the rooftop, holding a bell in his hand.

Ding-ding-ding~!

He closed his eyes and began to gently shake the bell, producing a clear yet eerie chime.

Wind Ghost raised the bell to his lips and began to chant in a low voice:

Black winds suddenly appeared.

"Yin winds rise, night shadows move, ghosts follow the bell's chime."

"Evil spirits manifest, nightmares are born, Su Muwan is the root of calamity."

As the incantation continued, the bell emitted a sharp, unsettling sound.

Wind Ghost's voice grew deeper and colder.

"Su Muwan, evil spirits appear, bringing calamity to Wang City with nowhere to hide."

"In dreams, resentment grows, hatred for her never ceases."

With that,

Wind Ghost took out several talismans from his sleeve and placed them on the ground, forming a sinister array.

As the incantation continued, the talismans began to glow faintly, emitting a dark light.

Wind Ghost's voice grew even deeper, and the glow of the talismans intensified, as if countless evil spirits were stirring within them.

At the center of the array, the power of the evil spirits began to gather, forming a swirling vortex that slowly rotated.

By now, Wind Ghost was drenched in sweat. Casting a curse on an entire city, even for a profound ghost cultivator like him, was an immense strain.

But it was done.

He shook the bell and coldly commanded, "Go!!"

As soon as he spoke,

The center of the vortex spewed out dense black smoke, spreading across the entire city with the sound of the bell.

Wang City was enveloped in a cold, sinister atmosphere.

Wind Ghost finally opened his eyes, taking a deep breath, his eyes gleaming with satisfaction.

The glow of the talismans gradually dimmed, and the array slowly dissipated.

The curse was complete. Within three days,

Su Muwan would become the object of fear and hatred for everyone in the city! A being they would wish dead!!

Wind Ghost's eyes glowed with a crimson light.

Making the entire city despise Su Muwan was only the beginning.

Luring the Dragon Tiger Mountain sect to Wang City was his ultimate goal.

By then...

The Ten Thousand Demon Banner would absorb the resentment of the masses, refine their hatred, and devour countless vengeful souls!

Wind Ghost chuckled darkly, "Once the Ten Thousand Demon Banner is complete,"

"No one in this world will be able to stop me!!"

"Not even the Heavenly Master!!"

....

....

That night.

In the Ning family's residence, inside Qin Luo's room.

A wisp of black smoke quietly drifted toward Qin Luo.

However, before it could get close,

Snap!

A brilliant light instantly burst forth from Qin Luo's body.

Woo—!

Accompanied by a shrill scream, the black smoke dissipated.

Qin Luo turned over in his sleep, muttering, "Miss... I want to eat the special cream puffs too..."

In the next room.

Outside Su Muwan's bedroom.

At the door.

A large mass of black smoke lingered in front of the door.

As if sensing something, the black smoke suddenly turned and scattered in all directions.

It seemed to be fleeing.

Inside the room.

Su Muwan was sprawled out on the bed, rolling over in her sleep.

"Hehe... finger cream puffs are so delicious..."

In another room.

Su Bailian lay pale on her bed.

She murmured in her sleep, "No... don't..."

"Don't throw Boqi into the river to feed the sharks..."

"Waaah... Su Muwan... you're so mean...."

"Qin! Qin Luo! Why did you turn into a shark...!"

"No... no way... eating Boqi is too much, you two!"

"If you're going to eat anyone, eat those disciples from Wang City!!!"

That night.

Everyone in Wang City had a dream.

In the dream, Su Muwan's face was twisted and grotesque, like an evil spirit.

The next morning.

[The Lackey System reminds you.]

[The Pure Love Addict Body cleared an evil spirit last night!]

Qin Luo, waking up: ?

What the hell?

An evil spirit?

He knew the Pure Love Addict Body had the ability to clear evil spirits.

But... what was going on now?

Was there a ghost in the Ning family?

Qin Luo pondered as he got out of bed, performing a quick divination with his hands.

"Evil spirit..."

"Nightmare..."

"Su Muwan..."

After a moment,

Qin Luo's expression gradually cleared up.

So that's how it is.

Cursing the entire city to make everyone despise Su Muwan.

A ghost cultivator's technique.

Interesting.

But...

There was one thing Qin Luo didn't understand.

Wasn't Su Muwan already disliked and scorned by many?

With this, it was like... supercharged hatred?

To see how it played out, he decided to go out and take a look.

Once outside,

Qin Luo immediately noticed something was off.

He walked to the courtyard of the Ning family.

The sky over Wang City was overcast, and the air was filled with a chilling aura.

This ghost cultivator's skills were profound, enough to affect the entire city.

The chilling aura in the air was the energy of evil spirits.

Not only would ordinary people be affected, but even martial artists would suffer from poor mental states if exposed to this evil energy for too long.

Thinking this, Qin Luo focused his mind.

A faint light flickered in his eyes: "Come out."

In the next moment,

Gurgle!!

A figure emerged from Qin Luo's shadow.

It was Ning Duanlang.

Having been contracted by Qin Luo, he had become a shadow creature.

Not only did he retain his original consciousness and loyalty to Qin Luo, but he also gained the traits and abilities of shadow creatures.

Ning Duanlang stood respectfully beside Qin Luo and said, "Master."

Qin Luo raised his hand slightly, and whoosh!!

A flock of shadow crows instantly merged into Ning Duanlang's body.

Qin Luo looked up at the gloomy sky, squinting slightly, and said, "Go and patrol the city."

"Keep an eye on that ghost cultivator."

Ning Duanlang bowed and replied, "Yes!"

With that,

Swish!

His form turned into a swarm of crows and flew into the sky, disappearing from sight.

Qin Luo stood still for a while.

He clapped his hands: "Well, time to wake up the missus."

After all, what was the point of thinking when he could be snuggling with his soft and fragrant lady?

A short while later,

Su Muwan, full of energy, walked beside Qin Luo.

She swayed slightly, looking curiously at the overcast sky: "Qin Luo, did the weather forecast say it would be cloudy today?"

"And why do I feel a bit cold?"

As she spoke, Su Muwan shivered.

To be fair, she was quite sensitive to the presence of certain unclean things.

If there was something bad around, she would sense it immediately!

Qin Luo glanced at Su Muwan, blinked, and after a moment's thought, said, "Maybe..."

"There's a ghost in the Ning family?"

!!

Su Muwan froze for a moment, then glared at Qin Luo, exclaiming, "Qin Luo! We live in an age of martial arts!"

"Ghosts? We should believe in martial arts!"

"Yeah, yeah..."

Qin Luo shrugged. Why didn't anyone believe him when he told the truth?
