Chapter 77: Demon Extermination in Progress
As soon as Liu Yu and the others entered the wealthy businessman's house, they heard a strange sound, like someone crying or screaming.
Liu Yu shrank back in fright: "What was that sound? It was really scary."
Xiaoqing said, "Brother-in-law, don't be afraid, we're here."
Xu Xian also tried to remain calm: "Yes, let's find out where this sound is coming from first."
They searched the house carefully, and when they came to a dark room, the sound seemed to grow louder.
Liu Yu swallowed hard: "Maybe we shouldn't go in."
The wealthy merchant pleaded anxiously, "Heroes, please help me get rid of this monster!"
Bai Suzhen said, "Don't be afraid, go in and take a look."
They pushed open the door, and a pungent smell hit them. The house was a mess, with old furniture and cobwebs everywhere.
Suddenly, a dark figure flashed past them.
"Ah!" Liu Yu jumped up in fright.
Xiaoqing quickly chased after him, only to find that the dark figure had vanished.
Just then, the strange sound rang out again, this time even more shrill.
Xu Xian turned pale with fright: "This monster isn't going to eat us, is it?"
Liu Yu stammered, "I... I don't think so."
Bai Suzhen carefully observed her surroundings and discovered some strange symbols on the wall.
She said, "This could be a mark left by a monster."
Liu Yu leaned over to take a look: "What is this? It looks like scribbles."
As they were talking, a huge spider fell from the roof beam and landed right on Liu Yu's head.
"Ah! A spider!" Liu Yu hurriedly flung the spider away.
After the spider landed, it instantly grew to enormous size and lunged at them with its claws outstretched.
Xiaoqing swung her sword at the spider, but the spider nimbly dodged.
Liu Yu stood to the side, waving a stick wildly and shouting, "Get away! Get away!"
The spider spun a ball of silk and wrapped Liu Yu up.
"Help!" Liu Yu struggled.
Bai Suzhen cast a spell, and a beam of light struck the spider, causing it to release Liu Yu.
Everyone ganged up on the spider, and the spider gradually became outmatched and tried to escape.
Just then, Fahai appeared.
Fahai shouted, "Demon, don't try to escape!"
He raised the golden bowl, ready to subdue the spider.
Bai Suzhen quickly said, "Master, this spider is not an evil demon; perhaps it has suffered some injustice."
Fahai snorted coldly: "Snake demon, shut up. All demons should be subdued."
Liu Yu couldn't help but say, "Fahai, you don't understand love. Even monsters can be good or bad."
Fahai glared at Liu Yu: "Nonsense! Humans and demons are different, how can they be compared?"
Xu Xian also said, "Master, please let us explain."
Fahai wouldn't listen and insisted on subduing the spider.
Seeing this, the spider became even more ferocious and launched an attack on Fahai.
Fahai engaged in a fierce battle with the spider.
Liu Yu and the others watched anxiously from the sidelines, wanting to help but unable to get involved.
Suddenly, the spider sprayed out a stream of venom. Fahai couldn't dodge in time, and his clothes were stained with the venom.
"Damn it!" Fahai was even angrier.
Just as Fahai was about to unleash his full power, Bai Suzhen called out, "Master, wait! I have a way to quiet the spider down."
Fahai stopped, half believing and half doubting.
Bai Suzhen stepped forward and said something to the spider.
A miracle happened; the spider actually calmed down.
Bai Suzhen said, "This spider was originally the guardian spirit of a wealthy merchant's family. It became violent because the merchant did bad things."
The wealthy businessman quickly said, "I know I was wrong, and I will definitely change my ways in the future."
Upon hearing this, the spider transformed into a beam of light and vanished.
Fahai looked somewhat embarrassed upon seeing this.
Liu Yu said with a smile, "Master Fahai, you're wrong this time."
Fahai snorted and turned to leave.
The wealthy businessman was moved to tears: "Thank you all for your help."
Liu Yu and his group left the wealthy merchant's house and continued on their way.
On the way, Liu Yu continued to tease Fahai.
Xiaoqing said, "Brother-in-law, please stop talking. Be careful that Fahai hears you and comes looking for trouble again."
Liu Yu said, "What's there to be afraid of? He's never been reasonable to begin with."
As they were talking, dark clouds suddenly filled the sky, accompanied by lightning and thunder.
Liu Yu looked up and thought, "Could it be Fahai coming to take revenge?"
A bolt of lightning struck down, heading straight for Liu Yu and his group...
