Entering Ghost Street.
A giant mechanical gear was seen in the sky.
This gear was so large that it almost covered the entire sky of Ghost Street.
In the center of the gear was a bead, which was gray, indicating it had not been infused with energy.
Yu Daohen studied the bead for a long time without speaking.
The gear had not yet started, presumably because the bead had not been infused with energy.
However, to activate such a massive gear, the energy required was far beyond what any expert on the Black List could provide.
Indeed, even he himself might not be able to activate this gear.
And even if he could, he definitely wouldn't be able to sustain it for more than fifteen minutes.
His strength was on par with Qin Muyu, perhaps only slightly weaker.
But even so, it was impossible to activate this behemoth.
Therefore, what this behemoth required to activate was not energy, but... lifespan!
With this thought, Yu Daohen's eyes narrowed slightly. Hesitating for a moment, he said, "Daughter, smash this gear for me."
Yu Yijun nodded obediently and was about to act when a cold voice cut through the air.
"Stop!"
The father and daughter turned their heads simultaneously to look at the approaching figure.
A Ghost King, clad in armor, walked over, gripping his cleaver tightly, his eyes icy. "Sir, I'm afraid you cannot touch this thing."
But as soon as he spoke, the Ghost King felt that the man and the little girl before him looked very familiar.
Wait!
The Ghost King suddenly realized and his face broke into a smile. "So it's Young Master Yu and the little fairy. We're all on the same side."
Yu Daohen nodded, believing this person was likely Liu Feng's subordinate.
Given Qin Muyu's personality, he would handle everything himself.
But Liu Feng, that guy, was not necessarily the same.
Yu Daohen cut to the chase and asked, "What is used to activate such a large gear?"
"This..."
The Ghost King looked troubled, then shook his head. "I'm just following Master Liu's orders. As for what the gear is activated by, I truly don't know."
Upon hearing this, Yu Daohen's eyes narrowed, and a mocking smile played on his lips. "Do you truly not know, or are you unwilling to say?"
Seeing Yu Daohen's gaze, which carried a hint of authority and suspicion, the Ghost King felt a pang of fear.
Master Liu had specifically instructed him not to tell Young Master Yu that it was activated by lifespan.
Seeing Liu Feng's unwillingness to speak, Yu Daohen grinned and said, "Then let me guess. It's impossible for this behemoth to be activated by energy. It must be by... lifespan!"
As soon as he said this, the Ghost King's face changed drastically, but he still shook his head and denied it. "I don't know."
Yu Daohen knew that Liu Feng must have warned this fellow, and he would definitely not tell the truth.
Whether it was energy or lifespan,
Yu Daohen was determined to smash this gear today.
Yu Daohen looked at Yu Yijun beside him and smiled, "Daughter, ignore this fellow. Just smash it to pieces."
Although Yu Yijun didn't know what the object was, she obediently nodded and prepared to act.
Seeing this, the Ghost King's face turned pale, and he quickly spoke, "Young Master Yu, this cannot be done! If this gear is destroyed, my life will be forfeit."
Seeing his distressed appearance, Yu Daohen understood his predicament and assured him, "Don't worry, I will ensure you are safe."
The Ghost King did not believe him. "Young Master Yu, you know Master Liu's temper. What you say might not be useful."
Upon hearing this, Yu Daohen immediately felt indignant. "What do you mean what I say might not be useful? Call him here, and I'll show you."
The Ghost King looked unconvinced. "Is that true? Young Master Yu, please don't lie to me."
The more he said this, the more defiant Yu Daohen became.
However, he didn't realize that the Ghost King was merely employing a provocation tactic.
He knew that he couldn't fight Young Master Yu.
Not only could he not defeat him, but even if he could, trying to harm a single hair on his head would be met with severe consequences.
He wondered if Liu Feng would have him crushed if he dared to lay a hand on Yu Daohen.
It was not enough, simply not enough.
The father and daughter stood there foolishly with the Ghost King.
Yu Daohen grew more and more annoyed.
What did he mean, his words didn't count?
If he cried, threw a tantrum, or threatened to hang himself, he wondered if Liu Feng and Qin Muyu would panic.
No!
Yu Daohen suddenly realized and looked at the Ghost King, saying with annoyance, "You little Ghost King, you're deliberately stalling for time."
Hearing this, the Ghost King provoked him again. "Young Master Yu, please don't make things difficult for me. What you say truly doesn't count."
Just then, Yu Yijun, who was standing nearby, suddenly spoke, "I can smell Qin Dad and Uncle Liu's aura."
Yu Daohen also felt their auras approaching rapidly and immediately said, "Daughter, smash it!"
When he had asked that question, he knew they would definitely react.
But he hadn't expected them to arrive so quickly!
However, they were still a little late.
Yu Yijun nodded, and a fireball condensed in her mouth, ready to be unleashed.
Seeing Yu Yijun about to act, the Ghost King immediately rushed forward, intending to knock away the charging fireball.
Yu Daohen, with his quick reflexes, flashed in front of Yu Yijun and then unleashed a palm strike.
Seeing Yu Daohen's palm strike, the Ghost King had no choice but to raise his hand to meet it.
Bang!
With the clash of their palms, the Ghost King was sent staggering back several meters before he could stabilize himself.
This palm strike was not one Yu Daohen had condensed; it was merely a casual blow.
As expected, the Ghost King was no match for him now.
If it were three years ago, his first reaction upon encountering a Ghost King would have been to flee for his life.
But he was no longer the same person he used to be.
Whoosh!
The fireball shot out, directly striking the bead.
"No!"
The Ghost King shouted, but it was too late.
The moment the bead was hit by the fireball, it shattered.
Without the bead, the gear began to collapse, and countless parts started to fall.
At the same time, those outside Ghost Street heard the explosion. Their eyes met, their expressions turned grim, and they rushed into Ghost Street.
But the scene before them still left the two of them stunned.
This was the only way they could think of to protect Daohen.
And it was destroyed by Daohen like this?
Qin Muyu quickly regained his composure and looked ahead, seeing Yu Daohen smiling at them.
Yu Daohen looked at the arriving duo, his lips curling upwards, and shouted, "You promised me, no matter what I did, you wouldn't stop me~"
"Heh heh..."
Liu Feng let out an exasperated chuckle.
Of course, we wouldn't blame you, but we wouldn't mind spanking your backside!
We absolutely wouldn't mind!
Qin Muyu, standing beside him, remained silent, but it was clear he shared the same sentiment as Liu Feng.
Seeing their forced smiles,
Yu Daohen immediately understood that his backside was likely in for it. He quickly scooped up the little girl beside him, then leaped onto the Golden Dragon, and then accelerated with all his might, flying out of Ghost Street as if his life depended on it.
Seeing the approaching Golden Dragon, Liu Feng chuckled. "Today, I will tear your Golden Dragon to shreds and spank your backside until it's blooming!"
