55: Chapter 55 The Seven Ghosts of the Tang Family, Fellow Daoist, Don't Be Afraid

A woman wearing a white veil slowly descended from mid-air to land in front of Chu Chen.

"The Demonic Mist Forest Sea is indeed full of scum. Seven against one—have you no shame?"

The woman looked at Tang Shan and the others with disdain, then said to Chu Chen, "Don't be afraid, fellow Daoist. With this young lady here, no one can harm you today."

Chu Chen looked at the woman before him with a speechless expression. Where did this naive girl come from?

Could there actually be a person of integrity within the Demonic Mist Forest Sea?

Chu Chen guessed that the woman in front of him must have come from some major power.

She was a flower from a greenhouse, and she was only at the First Level of the Cave Heaven Realm, yet she actually claimed she would protect him.

Chu Chen shook his head. Whatever; since she stood up for him, he would save her life.

Tang Shan looked at the woman who had suddenly appeared. After his initial surprise, he sneered, "I thought it was some big shot, but it's just a little girl at the First Level of the Cave Heaven Realm."

Then, Tang Shan's eyes swept over the woman's rising and falling chest with unrestrained greed.

"Brothers, we're in luck today. Not only can we get the Blood Induction Curse, but we can also have a taste of this beauty."

"Thanks, Brother Shan! Following Brother Shan means not only getting rare treasures but also tasting little beauties. It's truly delightful!"

The other six ghosts behind Tang Shan spoke up, their eyes also reflecting desire as they looked at the woman.

However, the woman looked at the Seven Ghosts of the Tang Family without a hint of fear. "Is the Ninth Level of Dragon Transformation Realm that impressive?"

"Let me tell you, my father could wipe out a mere Ninth Level of Dragon Transformation Realm with a wave of his hand, but there's no need for him to act."

As she spoke, a sudden gale rose, and in an instant, four immortal swords of different colors appeared behind her.

A terrifying and sharp sword intent radiated from the four swords, causing everyone present to change expression.

"What kind of magic treasure is this? How can it have such powerful sword intent? Just looking at it makes my skin sting."

"I don't know, but for this woman to be able to produce such a treasure, it shows the power behind her is extraordinary."

"Even though she's only at the First Level of the Cave Heaven Realm, the Seven Ghosts of the Tang Family might not dare to touch her."

At the same time, Tang Shan also sensed the extraordinary nature of the magic treasure she had summoned, but he was not intimidated.

Tang Shan licked his lips, looking at the woman with burning eyes.

"Good, good, good! Such a treasure shall be mine. Even if you have a heaven-reaching background, as long as I don't leave this Demonic Mist Forest Sea, the power behind you can't do anything to me."

*Swish!!*

Tang Shan's fingers moved in a seal, and instantly the ground shook. Countless blood vines burst from the earth, lunging toward the woman.

He then said to those behind him, "The magic treasure in this woman's hand is a bit strange. I'll deal with her; you guys go and capture that kid for me."

"Yes, Brother Shan!!" The six ghosts behind Tang Shan immediately sprang into action.

Chu Chen's eyes were cold as he watched this. Just as he was about to strike, a slender hand pulled him behind her to protect him.

"Don't be afraid, fellow Daoist. With this young lady here, no one can harm you today."

Chu Chen looked at the woman blocking him and spoke indifferently, "Step aside. They are all at the Ninth Level of Dragon Transformation Realm; you can't handle them."

The woman didn't respond to Chu Chen. In an instant, her eyes became as cold as ice.

She stared intently at the Seven Ghosts of the Tang Family rushing toward her and the blood-red vines.

Her red lips parted slightly. "Trapping Immortal Sword! Go!!"

*Swish!*

As she spoke, the ring of a sword echoed, and a cyan immortal sword flew out rapidly from behind her.

In an instant, it transformed into countless cyan immortal swords, each radiating terrifying sword qi.

In just a moment, the countless blood-red vines were severed. Then, like a downpour covering the sky, the cyan immortal swords swept toward the Seven Ghosts of the Tang Family.

Seeing this, Tang Shan roared, "Bloody Entanglement!!"

Countless blood-red vines burst from the ground once more, growing frantically and quickly weaving into a massive blood net.

However, the moment the blood net touched the cyan immortal swords, a crisp slash was heard.

The seemingly indestructible blood net was easily torn apart like paper!

Immediately after, countless dazzling sword lights flickered and intersected in the air.

They slashed toward the Seven Ghosts of the Tang Family, each sword light containing an incredibly terrifying and sharp sword qi.

Tang Shan's pupils constricted sharply. He hadn't expected the magic treasure summoned by this woman to be so terrifying.

He no longer held back, shouting, "I admit your treasure is indeed terrifyingly powerful, but we, the Seven Ghosts of the Tang Family, have roamed the Demonic Mist Forest Sea for decades."

"How could we not have a trump card? Today, I'll show you the famous ultimate technique of the Seven Ghosts of the Tang Family."

Tang Shan's face turned hideous. "Seven-Rotation Divine Light!!"

*Boom!* As Tang Shan spoke, the other six people poured their power into his body.

A powerful surge of energy suddenly erupted within Tang Shan, and a seven-colored divine light shot out from his body.

In a few moments, the countless cyan immortal swords were annihilated by the seven-colored divine light. But it didn't end there; the divine light shot directly toward the woman.

The woman looked at the massive seven-colored pillar of light, her eyes showing no emotion.

Another red immortal sword from behind her instantly appeared in front of her.

The woman gripped the red immortal sword and struck.

A crimson light formed a crescent shape, easily cutting through and extinguishing the seven-colored divine light.

The red and cyan immortal swords intertwined like two flood dragons.

In the blink of an eye, only Tang Shan remained of the Seven Ghosts of the Tang Family; the other six had already become souls under the swords.

Tang Shan looked at the two immortal swords floating above his head, and cold sweat instantly soaked his back.

He immediately knelt on the ground and begged for mercy, "I, Tang Shan, was blind to have offended you, Miss. Please spare my life; I promise to turn over a new leaf from now on."

The woman raised an eyebrow slightly. "Your brothers are all dead, and you're not going to seek revenge on me?!"

"You are so powerful, Miss. It was their own fault for not recognizing greatness. If they're killed, so be it. I only beg you to spare my life."

Seeing the man's disgusting behavior, the woman said, "Get lost. Don't let me see you again, or I won't let you off so easily next time."

She then put away the four immortal swords behind her.

"Thank you, Miss! Thank you! I, Tang Shan, will definitely turn over a new leaf and be a good person."

However, a murderous glint flashed in Tang Shan's eyes. Although it was well-hidden, Chu Chen still noticed it.

The woman, still unaware that danger was imminent, looked at Chu Chen with a proud expression.

"How about it, fellow Daoist? Am I not impressive? If it weren't for me, you might have died here."

"But what can I do? I'm just too kind-hearted. I can't stand those who bully the weak and fear the strong."

Chu Chen shook his head. He could see that this naive girl really didn't understand the rules of the cultivation world. Just because you let someone go doesn't mean they'll be grateful.

They might even stab you in the back immediately.

Sure enough, in the next moment, Tang Shan's body suddenly lunged upward as he roared, "Go to hell!!"

*Swish!*

A silver steel needle, tainted with a mass of black gas, shot toward the woman like a bolt of lightning.
