Xue Manzhuang didn't even bother to fight. When the beauty called him, he immediately flew back and chirped obediently.

Shen Gurong said: "Can you still use Phoenix Fire now?"

Xue Manzhuang tilted her head slightly and "chirped" in confusion.

Shen Gurong said: "Fire."

Xue Manzhuang suddenly realized it. He closed his eyes tightly and held it in for a long time before finally opening his sharp beak and spitting out a small cluster of phoenix flames.

Shen Gurong: "..."

Although Xue Manzhuang has reached adulthood, she is still unable to use the Phoenix Fire because she was forced back to the cub stage.

Shen Gurong suddenly sighed, every cause must have its consequences, retribution is coming.

The water ghost was so cunning that he was able to shuttle through the water with his boat. Even with Wen Liubing's cultivation level, he couldn't even find his hiding place.

Seeing that Shen Gurong was talking to Xue Manzhuang about the Phoenix Fire, Wen Liubing raised his eyebrows slightly: "Master wants to use fire to fight against water ghosts?"

Shen Gurong nodded: "Although it looks like water under our feet, it is actually just an underground river where countless resentful spirits gather."

The phoenix fire can burn everything in the world, and it is even more useful against evil spirits.

When Xue Manzhuang heard that Shen Gurong praised his fire for its usefulness, she immediately jumped up and down and happily started to make Shen Gurong spray fire.

It took him a long time to spit out the ball of phoenix fire in his palm. Shen Gurong saw that his voice was hoarse, as if he was about to spit out his internal organs. No matter how much he hated Xue Manzhuang, he finally couldn't bear it.

"Stop vomiting." Shen Gurong took the initiative to stroke Xue's makeup-covered head, "These should be enough."

Xue Manzhuang was already dying, but when she was suddenly touched on the head, she was stunned for a moment, and immediately jumped up on the spot, chirping, and wanted to breathe fire on the beauty Fengxue.

Shen Gurong touched him twice more and said, "Stay on my shoulder honestly."

Xue Manzhuang immediately fell silent and squatted on Shen Gurong's left shoulder with a happy face, her little head shaking from left to right.

Shen Gurong ignored him and hung the Phoenix Fire on the Lanting Sword, and then let Wen Liubing control the Spiritual Sword Rushui.

Wen Liubing nodded, controlled the reluctant spirit sword and broke through the water with a swipe, and began to fly around looking for the water ghost.

The water ghost barrier seemed like a long river, with the Orchid Pavilion sword hanging with phoenix fire flowing straight in. The resentful spirits were afraid of the spirit sword and even more afraid of the phoenix fire, so they all screamed to avoid them.

Just for a moment, a scream was heard not far away, and then the Lanting Sword emerged from the water, bringing out a sinister ghostly aura, and returned to Wen Liubing's hand.

The phoenix fire is so powerful that it can seriously injure a water ghost with just one blow.

The boat carried the water ghost slowly floating out of the water.

The water ghost was covered in blood, struggling to hold on to the edge of the boat, still glaring fiercely at Shen Gurong.

Shen Gurong used his last bit of spiritual power, raised his hand and waved it away, paving a lotus path in the water.

He was about to get up and go over, but Wen Liubing stopped him: "Master, the water ghost is full of tricks, so you should be more careful."

Shen Gurong ignored him and walked away on the lotus, his white hair being gently blown by the invisible wind.

He walked forward slowly and walked to the broken boat of the water ghost. He looked down at the miserable water ghost with a trace of pity in his eyes.

The water ghost seemed to have sensed something, and suddenly laughed eerily: "I never thought that Shengjun Shen, who killed countless ghost cultivators with one man and one sword, would actually have compassion and mercy? It really opened my eyes."

Shen Gurong said calmly: "I don't pity you, I just pity those people who were innocently killed by you."

"Innocent?" The water ghost grinned, "Are there innocent people in this world? If you hadn't destroyed my eyes back then, I wouldn't have killed them."

Shen Gurong was not shaken by his words, and just said: "False."

Another cluster of phoenix fire touched the water ghost's body, gradually burning his body formed by yin energy and disintegrating. Perhaps because he died once, there was no fear of death on his face, and his expression became even crazier.

"Mr. Nanshang has protected you for so many years, and for this reason, he did not hesitate to trade with the demon clan and make a hundred-year agreement." The water ghost said in a hoarse voice, "But Shen Fengxue, you left Liren Peak..."

Shen Gurong was stunned and looked at him with a frown.

The water ghost suddenly burst out laughing: "My boat can't reach the shore, and neither can you."

Shen Gurong thought to himself, what kind of nonsense is this? Are they talking about the Book of Heaven?

He was about to ask more questions when he saw the water ghost pressing the edge of the boat with one hand and trying to forcefully turn it over into the water.

With quick eyes and quick hands, Wen Liubing swung the Lanting Sword directly. Hearing a sharp sound in the void, Shen Gurong felt as if something suddenly scraped past his ears.

Taking a closer look, Wen Liubing's Lanting Sword had pinned the water ghost to the edge of the boat. His eyes were wide open, looking at him like a fierce ghost.

Shen Gurong: "..."

Wen Liubing came quickly on the lotus and said in a deep voice: "Water ghosts bind evil spirits to the earth. They must not leave the boat and the water, otherwise they will turn into unconscious evil spirits."

The water ghost had been pierced in the heart by the Phoenix Fire and Orchid Pavilion Sword arrows, and its ghostly aura completely dissipated, staring into the void as if it would never see the light of day.

There seemed to be nostalgia and relief in those eyes.

Wen Liubing explained and walked to Shen Gurong, only to find that his master's body was covered in dirty blood.

——It was all splashed out by his sword just now.

Shen Gurong was so frightened that he stood there with dull eyes, the dirt on his green clothes was extremely eye-catching.

Shen Fengxue always wore a green shirt that was spotless and dignified like an immortal. Even if it rained, she would never let a drop of rain stain her clothes.

Wen Liubing had never seen his master in such a miserable state before. He was a little surprised and asked in confusion: "Master, why is there so much blood on your body?"
