There is a beast: (Hundred Explanations)

Chapter 214 Ghosts

"Are you hungry? I'll go find you something to eat." Qinghuo heard the little Pixiu on his back complaining and put Baizang down on the ground.

"Huh? Is there anywhere to eat?" Bai Zang asked curiously.

"Hmm, there's a place nearby called Piao, I'll go get some," Qinghuo said.

Because the items from the underworld are all burned, they are delivered to their homes by express courier from the underworld.

Every family that drifts normally has some stored food from the fires burned by beasts in the mortal realm.

"Huh? Are we going to ask for some? Then maybe we shouldn't... Mother said it's not good to eat food from strangers." Bai Zang said in a low voice.

Qinghuo rubbed Baizang's head.

"This was obtained through begging; it doesn't count as eating food from strangers." His voice was gentle.

"Oh? Is that so?" Bai Zang asked in confusion.

"Okay, you stay here for now, I'll go get you something to eat."

After saying that, Qinghu walked to a ghost house in the distance, said something, and then the ghost enthusiastically handed some ham and cured meat to Qinghu.

Qinghuo took the food and quickly returned to Baizang.

Bai Zang blinked at him.

"What did you say to him? Why did they look like that?"

"That appearance? Oh, you mean that?" Qinghuo was slightly puzzled for a moment before realizing that the ghosts had given him food so respectfully after exchanging a few words with him.

“I still hold some status in the underworld, and I often help the ghosts on the border, so I know about all the ghosts along the way, and they are quite respectful to me,” Qinghuo explained.

Then he placed the ham and cured meat in front of Baizang.

"You should eat these, right?"

"Mmm! Thank you, Brother Qinghuo!" Baizang nodded repeatedly. "I eat almost anything, but some things are hard to digest, so I don't eat them. Oh, right, I can eat clouds! But there are no clouds in the underworld—"

Bai Zang started eating like crazy.

The meat tastes the same as the meat in the mortal world; nothing has changed.

not bad.

Moments later, the food was completely devoured by Hyakuzō.

This appetite gave Qinghuo a little shock.

"Wuhu~ Let's go!" Bai Cang said, fully recharged after finishing his meal.

Along the way, Bai Zang would occasionally catch something floating back.

Occasionally, they would bring the wrong two, which terrified the floating creature. Only after Qinghuo explained were the floating creatures finally freed.

Bai Zang saw another creature floating in the distance; it must be lost.

"Watch this!" Bai Cang aimed at the floating creature and bit it.

Piao neither dodged nor evaded, and was bitten by Baizang.

Just when Hyakuzō thought he could easily take it back as before.

Bai Zang suddenly felt his teeth getting cold.

What the hell?

Startled, he quickly loosened his teeth and looked cautiously at the floating creature.

The yin energy around the floating creature almost materialized, continuously spreading outwards.

Qinghuo noticed the anomaly immediately and rushed over.

When he looked at the ghost, he immediately understood what had happened.

This ghost has been lost for too long and has absorbed a lot of yin energy, and now it has mutated.

We need to deal with him quickly.

He then adopted an attack stance.

He protected Bai Zang behind him.

"Hmph! Don't underestimate me! You're the one who froze my teeth, aren't you!" Bai Cang bared his teeth fiercely.

Transform into a larger form!

A beautiful beast, resembling the Four-Faced Beast, appeared. Of course, unlike the Four-Faced Beast, it possessed exceptional fighting power. As the son of the Pixiu, it perfectly inherited the Pixiu's power.

Under Qinghuo's dazed gaze, Baizang pounced on the ghost and began to bite it.

And then something strange happened.

Each time Baizang bites a spot, some of the yin energy in that area dissipates.

Bai Zang thought it was quite normal. He had practiced his claws on a few ghosts before, because he was the son of a Qilin, and his auspicious aura seemed to be able to suppress these evil spirits.

Qinghuo noticed the problem and followed up to fight the ghost, absorbing its yin energy.

Under the suppression of the two beasts, the ghost finally returned to normal and stopped running rampant.

"Ha~ It's been a long time since I fought with a ghost, but it seems I haven't gotten rusty~" Daibaizang stretched and said.

"Have you fought against these kinds of drifters before?" Qinghuo realized the problem.

"Hmm~ I remember it was a long, long time ago, there was a ghost back then, and I 'purified' it~ It was just too smelly, otherwise I could have eaten it—" Bai Zang recalled.

He has had food and drink since birth, so there is absolutely no need for him to eat ghosts.

It smells awful and tastes terrible.

I heard that Brother Bixie Tianlu and his friends had eaten it before, but they only did so out of necessity.

"Uh...you've eaten ghosts before?" Qinghuo remained silent, knowing that eating ghosts was a serious crime.

"I've never eaten it! I told you it smells terrible, I won't eat it!" Bai Cang got furious when he heard someone say that he had eaten ghosts.

Why eat ghosts? Aren't gold bars better? Aren't colorful clouds better?

However, Bai Zang's current appearance, coupled with his ruffled fur, made the beast think he looked even better.

Qinghuo looked at Baizang, who was the same height as him.

The claws couldn't help but rub his head.
