88: Don't hit a child's face, just let their bottom get bigger.

"Goudan, come here for a second," Xiao Chi said as he reached into his clothes, rubbed vigorously a few times, and pulled out a dark, muddy pill.

Goudan looked at the black mud pill and clearly froze for a moment, a look of reluctance appearing on his face, but he eventually reached out his chubby little hand and took the pill.

Just then, several tentacles suddenly manifested from the ghost power on Goudan's body. They quickly pried open Lu Jiahao's mouth and stuffed the mud pill inside.

Lu Jiahao was startled and hurriedly reached into his mouth to dig it out. Spitting repeatedly, he complained, "Ptooey, ptooey, ptooey... Maternal Uncle, what did you give me to eat? Why does it smell so bad?"

"Heh heh... This is my exclusive secret recipe—the Squat-and-Plug Pill," Xiao Chi said with a smug smile.

"Huh!" Lu Jiahao's eyes widened, looking at Xiao Chi with a face full of constipation. "What did you say?"

About a minute later, Lu Jiahao suddenly jumped up from the bed, clutching his buttocks tightly, and ran straight for the bathroom.

"It's coming... It's coming..." he howled as he ran.

With a "clatter," he rushed inside and locked the bathroom door, not coming out for a long time.

From the bathroom, only a series of loud "poof, poof, poof..." sounds could be heard.

Goudan floated slowly back to Xiao Chi's side. His tentacles looked somewhat pitiful, constantly rubbing against Xiao Chi's body.

"Well done!"

Xiao Chi gave a casual compliment and then stroked Goudan from top to bottom, like petting a cat.

His technique was so good that he ended up kneading Goudan into a soft glutinous rice ball.

Tang Tang found it hard to watch, probably thinking the scene was a bit of an eyesore.

Thinking about the mud pill her martial nephew had rubbed out, she couldn't help but sigh inwardly: [Eww! That's just too dirty, and Goudan is still rubbing all over his clothes!]

...At nine o'clock the next morning, Lu Jiahao finally crawled back to the bedroom from the bathroom.

His whole being exuded a sense of being drained, as if his body had been hollowed out. His pale face still carried a hint of horror as he moved to Tang Tang's side with weak legs.

After all, for any ordinary person, pooping out a pool of black water mixed with bits of meat was a difficult thing to accept.

Xiao Chi patted his nephew's shoulder and said earnestly, "Remember to use protection in the future. It's not just to protect yourself, but also to protect me. If your mom kneels to me a few more times, your Maternal Uncle is going to be sent away by karma."

Tang Tang nodded in deep agreement and said with her arms crossed, "Promiscuity is inadvisable, beware of conceiving ghost fetuses... Seven fetuses in a wealthy family, the paparazzi will come sniffing around..."

"Hey, hey, hey..."

Lu Jiahao covered his face tightly with both hands—utterly ashamed.

He never expected that the master's words would be another critical hit after his narrow escape... On the other side, Xiao Chi had Yun Xi pull back the white cloth and stick several Soul-Soothing Talismans onto the bellies of the paper dolls.

The Soul-Soothing Talismans flickered with a faint green light, tightly binding the Infant Spirits inside the paper dolls.

By now, the Infant Spirits in the bellies had realized they had been tricked. They began to struggle desperately, trying to escape from the bellies.

Resentment constantly battered the Soul-Soothing Talismans and the seals, causing the entire bedroom to be filled with a fishy smell.

Yun Xi pinched his nose, not only reapplying several more talismans but also adding two extra layers of seals.

He said with full confidence, "Want to come out? It won't be that easy! Even if you can break free, Little Grandmaster has ways to defeat you one by one. I don't believe you can break through the seals all at once." After speaking, he looked up at the paper dolls with a smug smile on his face.

He wasn't cool for more than three seconds—"Rip..." A small crack appeared in the belly of a paper doll, and the previously quiet bedroom instantly became noisy.

This crack seemed to be a signal. Immediately afterward, more than a dozen Soul-Soothing Talismans seemed to lose their effect and fell directly to the floor.

Meanwhile, the Infant Spirit in the middle took the opportunity to shred the seal with its tentacles and crawled out of the paper doll's belly!

"Kyaa... Hiss..."

As soon as the Infant Spirit came out, it bared its teeth and roared at Lu Jiahao.

Its body wriggled a few times, seemingly showing its hatred for the physical body's bathroom incident.

The sudden turn of events shocked Yun Xi. He immediately performed a hand seal, attempting to seal the Infant Spirit back in.

However, the Infant Spirit was exceptionally agile, easily dodging the spell and giving Yun Xi the middle finger with its back turned.

Seeing that Yun Xi's Daoist arts were so pathetic, the other Infant Spirits also began to follow suit and break free from their seals, and the scene instantly became chaotic.

Yun Xi's expression changed drastically, fine beads of sweat appearing on his forehead. He hurriedly called out to Tang Tang for help, "Little Grandmaster, what should we do? They're about to escape!"

"You and your big mouth!" Tang Tang impatiently drew her peach wood sword and gave the six paper dolls a vigorous beating.

"Slap, slap, slap..."

Within a few minutes, the Infant Spirits, who had been beaten black and blue, all quieted down obediently.

One of the Infant Spirits that had broken free from the seal kept grinning foolishly at Tang Tang. "Heh heh heh... Master, don't hit the kid's face."

"Is that so? The butt has more meat, how about I hit your butt instead!" Tang Tang held the peach wood sword and performed a flourish.

Tang Tang's words made the Infant Spirit tremble all over, clearly terrified.

"Master, we were wrong, don't hit our butts."

"It's good that you know you were wrong." Tang Tang snorted triumphantly. "Now tell me, why are you swarming around Lu Jiahao?"

The Infant Spirit said with a long face, "We didn't want to either, but someone cast a spell to trap us in the bellies, and we can't get out!!!"

Yun Xi frowned. "Could it be that Layman Lu offended someone, and an evil cultivator did this on purpose?"

Tang Tang's gaze was sharp. "Liar! Why could Goudan get out?"

Tang Tang pointed her peach wood sword at one of the Infant Spirits and said sternly, "If you don't tell the truth, I'll let you taste the Ten Great Tortures of the Qing Dynasty!"

The Infant Spirits were so scared they wailed and cried, competing to speak, "Master, have mercy! We'll talk, we'll talk. Goudan isn't Dad's biological son, so he isn't controlled by the Bloodline Array and can enter and leave freely."

"Biological?" Yun Xi looked at Lu Jiahao, who was huddled under the desk, with a look of surprise. "Young Master Lu, you're so rich and powerful, yet you've been cuckolded?"

Hearing this, Lu Jiahao's face instantly turned bright red, and he angrily crawled out from under the desk. "Nonsense! How is that possible?"

Xiao Chi looked at his foolish nephew with a playful gaze. "I've seen plenty of this kind of thing; you don't need to feel embarrassed. But for what reason exactly were you trapped here?"

The Infant Spirits looked at each other, hesitated for a moment, and finally spoke. "Actually, we were intentionally raised in the bellies for the purpose of absorbing Lu Jiahao's Yang energy."

Xiao Chi and Tang Tang exchanged a glance, thinking to themselves: [As expected!]

Tang Tang brandished the peach wood sword and pointed it at Lu Jiahao. "Tell me, have you encountered any strange people or things lately?"
