The Invincible Strongest Student

Chapter 1056: Chapter 1056: Possession

Xu Dongxu naturally wasn’t afraid of this Buddhist scripture. He was human, not a ghost, and although he’d learned some improper things, he had also been exposed to a lot of orthodox Taoist techniques. His poor complexion now was only because Lin Tian had angered him.

Click.

Lin Tian walked to the door and turned the light on again.

”I didn’t expect this Buddhist scripture to actually be useful.” Lin Tian said with a smile while looking at Xu Dongxu, ”How about that? The sinister things you went to such great lengths to acquire are useless against me, doesn’t that just make you furious?”

”Not exactly furious.” Xu Dongxu said and then laughed again, ”You can protect yourself, but I’m not so sure about my sister-in-law and Miaoqiu.”

This time, it was Lin Tian’s turn for his expression to change repeatedly.

He had personally felt how powerful those vengeful spirits were just now. Not to mention anything else, just that chilly wind drilling into his body was something no human could endure.

”Ah~”

Suddenly, Miaoqiu’s scream came from outside, evidently experiencing the same encounter as Lin Tian earlier, just as Xu Dongxu had said.

”Come with me,” Lin Tian said darkly.

He was worried about Miaoqiu’s situation on one side and on the other, feared that if he wasn’t there, this old fox Xu Dongxu would escape. Hadn’t Ruyan been secretly tied up by Xu Nanhai just days ago?

Xu Dongxu leaned against the headboard, acting indifferent, and said, ”I’m full of internal injuries and not fit to get out of bed yet.”

”Are you going to walk on your own, or should I drag you along the ground like a dead dog? Your choice.” Lin Tian said coldly.

It seemed Xu Dongxu had long expected Lin Tian to say this. He wasn’t angry or upset, and leisurely moved from the bed to its edge, and then slowly began putting on his shoes.

”If you keep stalling, I’ll make sure you suffer more internal injuries.”

Lin Tian felt a bit regretful.

He regretted giving this bastard such a good elixir, the Great Rejuvenation Elixir. He didn’t care because he had plenty, but its efficacy was miraculous, quickly healing injuries.

Now, wasn’t this damned Xu Dongxu just idling and fooling around with him?

Hearing Lin Tian’s hasty urging, Xu Dongxu hurried his movements. Provoking Lin Tian further would only get him in trouble, everything must be done in moderation.

Lin Tian strode ahead quickly; with the power of a Golden Core expert supplemented with some Lightweight Skill, his speed was naturally not ordinary.

This troubled Xu Dongxu, who, despite taking a Great Rejuvenation Elixir, couldn’t have healed so quickly in just one day. Wanting to keep up with Lin Tian would naturally affect his injuries, but he had no choice but to follow.

Xv Baiping and Miaoqiu were currently in Xu Shaohui’s room. The two clung to each other, their pretty faces pale, holding Peace Talismans, clearly terrified out of their wits.

As Lin Tian and Xu Dongxu reached the door, they suddenly heard operatic singing wafting from inside the room.

”With strength, I lift a mountain — my spirit covers the world; unfavorable times — Zui won’t leave.”

The operatic singing was very authentic, clearly sung by some theater master.

However, the more Lin Tian listened, the more uneasy he felt. The voice was ethereal and piercing, giving an unsettling feeling like it couldn’t be pinpointed, sending chills up his spine.

Lin Tian, when living with his grandfather, had also listened to some operas and knew how to appreciate them. But in this environment, it only served to unsettle him deeply.

He quickened his pace toward the room, reaching the entrance just as the opera began again.

”Zui won’t leave — what can I do, Yu — Yu — what do I do...”

The singing was coming from inside, yet as Lin Tian stood at the doorway, an eerie wind was whooshing through the window, knocking over an orchid on the sill, the curtains flapping wildly.

Besides Xv Baiping, Miaoqiu, and Xu Shaohui, there were no others present?

Especially since those two mother and daughter were like startled birds, clinging to each other and too scared to speak, making it impossible for them to be the source of the singing.

Lin Tian stood at the doorway, flexed his legs, and a flash of brilliance passed through his eyes, making his presence regal and imposing, making Xu Dongxu feel like he couldn’t quite breathe.

”Restless spirit, be gone!”

With a shout, his presence was intimidating, making Miaoqiu shiver, and goosebumps appeared up and down her spine.

Whoosh~

The room filled with a strange wind, rushing again toward Lin Tian.

Evidently, this ghost was much stronger than the ones before, capable of singing ”Farewell My Concubine” and unafraid of Lin Tian’s presence and Spiritual Qi.

Xu Dongxu stood behind Lin Tian, seemingly having anticipated this scene, secretly laughing.

”Hmm?”

Lin Tian furrowed his brow and then relaxed it. He took a deep breath, gathered his Spiritual Qi into his throat, and started chanting the Buddhist scripture.

Indeed, the Buddhist scripture had its effect, and the gust of wind didn’t dare come towards Lin Tian anymore. Instead, it turned and rushed towards Xv Baiping.

Whoosh~

With the sound of the wind, Xv Baiping’s body shuddered violently and she fainted.

”Mom, mom what’s wrong? Don’t scare me!” Miaoqiu shook her mother’s body vigorously but got no response from her.

”Lin Tian, Lin Tian...” Miaoqiu, lifting her pretty face, looked at Lin Tian with teary eyes, unable to hold back her tears, ”My mom’s body suddenly got so cold, wh-what can we do?”

Just as Lin Tian was about to speak, Xv Baiping’s body suddenly trembled, and the head leaning on Miaoqiu’s shoulder lifted up. But when she opened her eyes, they were unfocused and looked hollow, her expression awfully strange.

”Hahaha~...”

For some reason, she started laughing, but compared to her usual gentle voice, this laugh was harsh and made one’s heart tingle, like the sound of a sharp object scraping across glass.

Miaoqiu was visibly terrified by this and didn’t know what to do.

”Miaoqiu, come over here, that’s not Auntie!” Lin Tian shouted.

But was there any time left? ’Xv Baiping’ suddenly bared her teeth and viciously lunged at Miaoqiu’s shoulder.

The force was enough to bite off a piece of flesh!

Seeing the peril, Lin Tian dashed over.

Sweeping Dust.

Grapple.

After two moves, Lin Tian pinned ’Xv Baiping’s hands behind her back, finally subduing her.

This body was still Xv Baiping’s, so Lin Tian could only handle it carefully, afraid of hurting her.

But she had inexplicable strength, incredibly strong, wanting to break free but was firmly pinned by Lin Tian.

Lin Tian was incredibly worried that with such strength, Xv Baiping’s frail body might not withstand it; if the force exceeded limits, a fracture would be quite normal.

Lin Tian pulled out a hand, trying to press some of Xv Baiping’s acupoints to ease the situation, but it was useless, his body covered in cold sweat from anxiety.
