Although he hated Zheng Wenjie for turning Ah Xiu into a zombie, Kuang Tianyou, who was once a guerrilla captain, had been a zombie for more than 60 years. Although he had never sucked human blood, he had long since become indifferent to the life and death of strangers. What's more, Zheng Wenjie killed his former enemy, the Japanese invaders.

He was completely disdainful of Madonna's choice. He could even break Uncle Qiu's legs, so what could he do now with a wandering soul and a young heir of the Ma family?

Kuang Tianyou was still thinking that preserving Ma Xiaoling's life would be a way of repaying Uncle Qiu's kindness. As for eliminating Zheng Wenjie, he had no hope at all, and he had never thought of killing Zheng Wenjie.

"That's all I have to say. If you really choose to risk everything and fight to the death with Zheng Wenjie, then I'll ask you to do it." Kuang Tianyou looked at He Youqiu expressionlessly: "I can't help you either."

“Xiao Qiu, who is this!” Madonna continued to scold with a cold face: “Which sect’s disciple is he? Didn’t the master and elders teach you the principles of slaying demons and defending the way!”

Kuang Tianyou didn't care about Ma Donna's tone. He tried to persuade her if he could, but he couldn't do anything if he couldn't. In the end, he tried his best to persuade her: "The existence of this jade pendant means that Zheng Wenjie doesn't want to kill innocent people. If it weren't for this jade pendant, many people would have died at their hands."

"The reason I stopped you is not only because I don't want to see you die, but also because I don't want to see ordinary people die at the hands of Zheng Wenjie because of you."

"Fifty years ago you were no match for him. Now you are just wandering souls. Uncle Qiu is old and frail. How old is Miss Ma?"

Kuang Tianyou didn’t want to say anything more after this, so he closed his mouth and sat back in his chair.

He Youqiu sighed deeply, his face wrinkled together, and said to Ma Donna: "I contacted fellow practitioners in Hong Kong Island, and most of them were unwilling to come because there is a Buddhist practitioner named Shen Cihang who is a devotee of the Sun Group. The news has spread throughout the spiritual world of Hong Kong Island."

"To fight against Zheng Wenjie, we must first fight against Theravada Buddhism, so this duel is our only chance to wipe out Zheng Wenjie and his zombies!"

"Otherwise, if Zheng Wenjie's power comes down on us, we won't be able to bear it. Now we either go all out on this one and only chance or admit defeat. We can't afford to offend him."

Ma Donna snorted coldly, but her eyes couldn't help but look at Ma Xiaoling, and said in a deep voice: "Xiaoling, you make the decision on this matter!"

"Me?" Ma Xiaoling bit her lip when she found that the three people were staring at her. "Well... since it's a challenge, it should be a one-on-one fight between Gong Ruomei and me, right?"

"It is our Ma family's duty to slay all the zombies in the world. I will not hesitate even if it costs my life."

"But what Mr. Kuang said makes sense, aunt. We can't make fearless sacrifices. We must first know what the zombies' weaknesses are." Ma Xiaoling looked at Madonna expectantly.

Madonna stammered for a while before shaking her head helplessly: "The Ma family has never found any weaknesses in zombies, especially zombies that are closer to the bloodline of generals. There is no other proven way to deal with them except for our Ma family dragon."

Kuang Tianyou looked at Ma Donna, not knowing what to say. He turned his eyes away speechlessly and happened to meet Ma Xiaoling's eyes. Seeing Ma Xiaoling's inquiring eyes, Kuang Tianyou sighed and said:

"You can get hurt but you won't die. No matter how bad your injuries are, you can recover quickly. Only when you're hungry will you become weaker, but also more dangerous."

"Will being weak be more dangerous?" Ma Xiaoling asked doubtfully.

"Weakness will cause the zombie to reveal its true form, and its sanity will slowly fade away over time. In the end, it will not recognize any relatives and will kill anyone it sees."

Ma Xiaoling shook her head and said, "This kind of zombie is easier to deal with. The zombie last night was too rational and chose to escape."

"Beasts are often more dangerous than rational humans." Kuang Tianyou said lightly.

He Youqiu listened to the conversation with a heavy face. Then he stood up and limped out a box from under the statue of the ancestor. He said to Ma Xiaoling:
"This is the Five Thunder Formation I prepared overnight! Xiaoling, your magic power is enough to drive the formation. When the time comes, as long as the formation is successfully set up, it should not be a problem to summon your dragon to deal with the third generation of zombies."

Ma Donna looked at He Youqiu with a hint of anger and relief: "Xiaoqiu, have you given up on killing Zheng Wenjie too?"

"How long can I live at my age? I have long since let go of life and death, but Xiaoling grew up under my watch and I cannot let her sacrifice in vain. I want to return this jade pendant intact. Tonight is just a battle of magic!"

He Youqiu handed the bright red jade pendant to Kuang Tianyou and said seriously: "Tianyou, I'll trouble you to mediate between us tonight. If Zheng Wenjie insists on pursuing the matter, then I'll leave my life to him!"

"Uncle, please!" Ma Xiaoling stood up and shouted.

He Youqiu raised his hand to stop Ma Xiaoling from speaking and continued, "I have made up my mind. And Xiaoling, just because we are not his opponent this time doesn't mean we can't deal with him next time!"

"You never know what's going on. You have to understand that things can change over time. We will always find an opportunity."

After Kuang Tianyou put away the jade pendant, he looked at Uncle Qiu seriously and said, "I won't let anything happen to you. As long as we don't push them into a corner, the current situation will have room for improvement."

He Youqiu nodded in agreement. More than fifty years ago, Zheng Wenjie did not harm them, and now there was Kuang Tianyou to mediate. All they had to do was let this matter go.

The pointer kept moving, and time soon arrived at the agreed location.

The iron gate of the villa was open, and a police car left the villa and passed by Kuang Tianyou and other two who were walking towards here.

"This is the prison car used to transport prisoners. Why is it here?" Ma Xiaoling asked curiously.

Kuang Tianyou looked at the empty prison van and said casually, "There is only one manor villa on this street. Zheng Wenjie's blood kiln is in our hands. Isn't he only killing people and sucking blood?"

"The power of the Sun Group is more powerful than we imagined. They can make the prison send prisoners to Zheng Wenjie as blood food. The power is already established." He Youqiu clenched his hands tightly behind his back and said helplessly.

Kuang Tianyou looked at the open iron gate at the end of the road, and saw the magnificent manor villa. He said, "I checked some information at the police station this afternoon. There was very little information and no mention of Zheng Wenjie. Even Gong Ruomei had no record."

"By the way, are all you zombies so rich? How much savings does Mr. Kuang have?" Ma Xiaoling looked at the villa with envy: "If we expand this villa a little bit, it will become a castle! No wonder Western vampires have castles, they are really rich."

He Youqiu pulled the corners of his mouth and tried to suppress a smile and said, "Tianyou has always been an office worker and has never violated any laws or disciplines. How could he live in such a magnificent manor in just over fifty years like Zheng Wenjie?"

"That Mr. Kuang... is truly admirable." Ma Xiaoling recalled Zheng Wenjie's slim and upright casual clothes and then looked up and down at Kuang Tianyou's clothes which were a little shabby in comparison and said with a smile.

He Youqiu smiled twice to hide his feelings before asking Ma Xiaoling, "Are you familiar with the Five Thunder Formation? It's up to you to decide whether to stop at the end or to fight hard tonight!"

"Don't worry, Uncle Qiu, I understand! Just watch me take action in a while. If I'm not sure, I won't sacrifice my life easily." Ma Xiaoling smiled and patted Uncle Qiu on the shoulder and walked into the villa first.

Walking through the garden path and looking at the villa with its door open in front of her, Ma Xiaoling withdrew her gaze in surprise: "There are dirty things in here, and there is more than one." "You are here? It's quite early. Come in and sit for a while." Zheng Wenjie invited people to sit down as if they were guests at home.

As soon as Kuang Tianyou, Ma Xiaoling and the other two sat down, their faces changed at the same time. A biting cold wind blew, and the gloomy energy instantly enveloped the hall. Uncle Qiu held Ma Xiaoling's arm and stared at the evil spirit that suddenly appeared in front of Ma Xiaoling with a sharp gaze.

"Yu'er, stop making trouble, go get Xiaoxue." Zheng Wenjie returned to the living room with two cups of tea. He chased Yu'er away before saying to Ma Xiaoling, "The one you injured yesterday is Tang Xue, she and Yu'er have a good relationship."

"Brother Kuang doesn't drink tea, right? How about a glass of blood?"

Kuang Tianyou calmly shook his head and said, "I guess I'm not used to drinking the blood you gave me."

Zheng Wenjie leaned back in his chair and looked at Kuang Tianyou and smiled, "I think so too. Brother Kuang has been dealing with the dead all these years, working in the Changsheng Shop and the funeral home. Oh, and Brother Kuang has worked as an undertaker."

"You have done a very thorough investigation." Kuang Tianyou looked at Zheng Wenjie through his glasses: "Then you must know everything about Ah Xiu and Fu Sheng."

Zheng Wenjie hummed, "I can understand that Sister Xiu has been practicing Chinese medicine, but why is Fu Sheng still hanging around in elementary school when he's almost sixty years old? What can he learn from that?"

"Isn't it good to get along with more people? Sixty years is enough time to learn anything you want." Kuang Tianyou said calmly, looking up at the decoration of the hall and asked: "Where is your wife? When does the duel start?"

Zheng Wenjie glanced at Ma Xiaoling and said, "She will be back later tonight to pick up my daughter from school. Don't worry, she will be back before the agreed time. But why are you here so early?"

"Your daughter?" Uncle Qiu's face wrinkled again and he looked at Zheng Wenjie in shock.

Zheng Wenjie waved his hand and said, "Goddaughter, I would like to have a biological child, but there is no sign of it until now."

He Youqiu breathed a sigh of relief and winked at Kuang Tianyou. Kuang Tianyou understood and took out the jade pendant from his arms and placed it on the guest table in front of everyone.

"Yu'er." Zheng Wenjie called softly, and Yu'er, with disheveled hair and a cold body, instantly appeared beside Zheng Wenjie.

"Go and give the blood talisman to Xiaoxue. The blood nourished by the blood talisman is not comparable to ordinary human blood. Her injuries will heal faster."

Yu'er nodded, and disappeared in front of them along with the blood talisman.

Ma Xiaoling took a deep breath and said to Zheng Wenjie, "I didn't expect Mr. Zheng would raise a ghost. Aren't you afraid that she won't obey your orders?"

"Why should she be afraid? Besides, I never gave her any orders that she didn't want to do."

Kuang Tianyou interrupted and said, "We will return this jade pendant to you. Can your wife and Miss Ma stop the duel?"

Zheng Wenjie was stunned, his eyes moved to Ma Xiaoling's face and said strangely: "Hasn't the Ma family of the Exorcist Dragon Clan been hunting down Jiang Chen for generations? You are not afraid of Jiang Chen, so now you are afraid of me?"

Seeing that Zheng Wenjie also knew about her Ma family, Ma Xiaoling felt ashamed for a moment, unworthy of the name of the Ma family of the exorcist dragon clan, and said angrily: "The general will not use guns or cannons, nor will he drive ordinary people to deal with our Ma family."

"So that's how it is. You are the kid who was this small back then, right? He...Youqiu?" Zheng Wenjie raised his hand to measure his height and asked with a smile while looking at He Youqiu's old face.

He Youqiu nodded and said calmly: "Yes, we met more than fifty years ago."

Zheng Wenjie wanted to make a few more jokes when the landline phone next to him rang. Zheng Wenjie stepped forward to pick up the receiver, and a strange voice came out of the phone.

Zheng Wenjie hung up the phone, thought for a moment, turned to look at Ma Xiaoling and said with a smile: "Miss Ma, as long as you can do me a small favor, I promise that your fight with my wife will not harm your life."

"Why?" Ma Xiaoling looked at Zheng Wenjie in confusion.

Zheng Wenjie sat back on the sofa. Yu'er also appeared beside him, stretching out her pale arm and pointing at the TV. Zheng Wenjie patted Yu'er on the back and said, "Go down and accompany Xiaoxue. I'll take care of this."

After Yu'er disappeared, the large TV turned on automatically, and a black and white picture appeared. In it was a well and a female ghost in a white dress with long black hair covering her face. It was Sadako!
"This ghost is very powerful. It chased me all the way from Japan to Hong Kong Island. Miss Ma helped me subdue her, which can be regarded as a contribution to the people of the world."

Zheng Wenjie looked at the arm that stretched out from the screen like a chicken claw and continued, "Even if the people of the world don't know what you have done for them, I will thank you on behalf of the people of the world."

Ma Xiaoling looked solemnly at Sadako, who was still trying to crawl out of the TV with her hands supporting her lower body on the floor. She waved her hand and a Lucky Star Charm shot towards Sadako. The moment it touched Sadako, it instantly expanded and wrapped her tightly.

"That alone won't do anything for her."

As soon as Zheng Wenjie finished speaking, Sadako had already escaped from the talisman and crawled out of the TV.

Sadako stood facing Zheng Wenjie straight, and the moment she raised her head, she stared at Zheng Wenjie with a look of horror. Then Zheng Wenjie felt his heart being squeezed by an invisible force.

Ma Xiaoling, who threw out another lucky star, also became serious. She formed seals with her hands and recited the nine-character mantra word by word: "Lin Bing... Qian... Zhu Xie!"

As Ma Xiaoling pointed her sword in the direction of Sadako, a majestic golden dragon roared, bared its fangs and claws, and pressed Sadako to the spot, then swallowed her in one gulp.

As the dragon disappeared, a lucky star fell from midair into Ma Xiaoling's hand. Ma Xiaoling raised her head and looked at Zheng Wenjie confidently: "I have already subdued the female ghost you mentioned!"

Zheng Wenjie made a noncommittal gesture and said, "Then let Miss Ma out and let her see. Her name is Zhenzi and she is a pitiful person."

Uncle Qiu and Kuang Tianyou looked at each other and realized something was wrong. Ma Xiaoling also reacted at this time and looked at the lucky star in her hand in disbelief.

Zheng Wenjie walked to the TV, touched his black screen and said, "Human power is very strong. If you trace the origins of many supernatural powers in this world, you will find that the origins of many powers come from humans!"

"Sadako had superpowers when she was alive, and her death was very special. Japanese exorcists call this kind of ghost a curse. They have studied it for thousands of years but still have no way to eliminate it."

Zheng Wenjie turned to the three people and said, "I gave Miss Ma a chance out of respect for Brother Kuang, but unfortunately Miss Ma did not seize it."

"Then I will not interfere in the fight between you and my wife. Everything will be handled by her." (End of this chapter)
