CHAPTER 415: 【164】FIVE GHOSTS SOUL-DEVOURING NAIL, DRAGON AND TIGER SUBDUE DEMON

Inside the Daoist temple, there were stone statues in various poses everywhere.

Some sat cross-legged, some danced with swords, and some embraced as if giving birth to a pill.

Lu Lei walked along, glancing around, and couldn’t help but feel curious, even as a young master of the Lu family.

"Daoist, where are we going?"

Following the female Daoist carrying sheep and pigs, through courtyards and corridors, Lu Lei felt like he was navigating a labyrinth.

He had long forgotten the way back, and without the female Daoist to guide him, he would have been lost in this maze-like temple.

"To rest." The female Daoist revealed a mysterious smile.

"Huh?" Lu Lei was puzzled.

However, he dared not ask further since the female Daoist belonged to this temple.

The methods of the Taiping Heavenly Sect were mysterious, and dealing with them was more dangerous than being pursued by a Grandmaster.

In such a place, one must be extra cautious.

Following the female Daoist through twists and turns, the two finally arrived at a secluded courtyard.

As soon as they entered, Lu Lei was hit by an extremely pungent and foul odor.

The courtyard was full of animal remains, some even half-decayed cattle, sheep, pigs, and dogs.

The scenes were terrifying, and just as Lu Lei involuntarily swallowed hard, about to ask the female Daoist where they were.

The Daoist tossed the pigs and sheep from her shoulder onto the ground and grabbed Lu Lei’s arm to pull him inside.

"Dao... Daoist, what are you... I’m Bao Pi’s friend, I mean no harm to your temple." Lu Lei panicked.

"I mean no harm to you either, come rest with me." The female Daoist exposed yellow teeth, her eyes revealing a greedy glint.

She scanned Lu Lei up and down.

Though not specialized in martial arts, Lu Lei was naturally strong, astonishing even Lu Pingshan.

He was a devoted athlete from a young age, and while studying in the American Federation, he played basketball with James.

He even joined the NFL professional football league, played in the Super Bowl, though he didn’t win the championship.

After returning to the Lu family to run the business, Lu Lei never gave up training, boasting a tall and muscular physique.

He was the type of man popular with Western women, even receiving a party invitation from Kim Kardashian while living in the American Federation.

"Daoist! Daoist!"

Lu Lei was frightened, instinctively wanting to resist, but was shocked to find.

Despite his strength, a sudden jolt of electricity from the Daoist’s hand left Lu Lei’s arm numb and unresponsive.

He could only watch as the Daoist dragged him indoors.

Once the door closed, the room filled with disturbing sucking and rustling sounds.

Followed by Lu Lei’s painful screams and fearful pleas for mercy.

Despair was spreading.

...

"Brother Lei!"

Bao Pi rushed out of the Daoist temple, looking around, but couldn’t see Lu Lei.

Confused, he asked the two young Daoist boys guarding the door, "The person I brought earlier, did you see where he went?"

"Senior brother, he was taken by the eldest sister." The young Daoist answered with a strange expression.

"What? How did the eldest sister come back! Oh no, this is bad." Bao Pi’s expression suddenly changed, clapping his hand in distress.

He never anticipated the eldest sister’s return today; if he’d known, he wouldn’t have let Lu Lei wait here.

With the eldest sister taking him away, Lu Lei might be... ’snowed over’ or ’changed’...

"Brother Lei, this is really... so unlucky." Bao Pi couldn’t help but sigh.

In the Daoist temple, Xuan He’s Mage had five disciples, Bao Pi being the youngest.

Above him were three senior brothers: Black Heart Mage, Black Liver Mage, Black Spleen Mage, and Bao Pi’s title was Black Lung Mage.

The first disciple taken in by Xuan He’s Mage was the eldest sister, Black Kidney Mage.

The Taiping Sect differed from the martial artist forces, assigning names from top to bottom, categorized as Grandmaster, Mage, and Mage Practitioner.

Bao Pi’s eldest sister was Xuan He’s Mage’s most esteemed disciple, her power far exceeding all the others.

According to Bao Pi, his senior sister was no ordinary person, being a ’Yin-Yang Dual Body,’ possessing a divine power.

A Yin-Yang Dual Body, as the name implies, meant Black Kidney Mage had both male and female organs.

Which means Black Kidney Mage could act as either a man or a woman.

With Yin-Yang Duality, Black Kidney Mage’s abilities and divine powers were stronger than other practitioners.

It was estimated that in less than five years, she would become the youngest Mage in the Taiping Heavenly Sect.

Bao Pi’s eldest sister also had a habit considered an ’evil quirk’ by her fellow disciples.

She liked to capture strong, muscular men to her residence, and in a man-woman fashion, perform acts on them, liberating herself.

Every man captured by Black Kidney Mage ended up physically and mentally tormented, scarred for life.

Weak-willed individuals even chose suicide for relief.

The eldest sister had been journeying for six months, and Bao Pi couldn’t imagine she’d return to the temple today.
