Yu Shuntian stepped forward and stood in front of Yu Daochen, saying, "Henhen, with iron plates tied to your feet, you can't perform your skills. Leave these three fellows to Grandpa."
Yu Daochen smiled and nodded, "Okay, Grandpa."
Yu Shuntian nodded slightly, looking at the three Sha Gui with grim expressions.
When the three Sha Gui saw Yu Shuntian, they obviously became a little fearful and took a few steps back subconsciously.
Seeing their actions, Yu Shuntian chuckled, "Trying to escape?"
Suddenly, the three Sha Gui turned and fled. Yu Daochen stomped on the ground, extending his palm to grab the nearest Sha Gui. Then, with his other hand, he drew two silver needles and shot them at the two Sha Gui fleeing ahead.
The two Sha Gui were hit by the silver needles and instantly stood still, as if their acupoints had been sealed.
Yu Shuntian had merely been careless just now.
If he had truly made a move, even if these three Sha Gui were faster, they couldn't be faster than Yu Shuntian, who had dominated the Black List for many years.
"Those who harm my grandson die!"
As soon as Yu Shuntian finished speaking, he exerted force with the hand gripping the Sha Gui, and the Sha Gui instantly dissipated into nothingness.
Yu Daochen couldn't help but exclaim, "So fierce," as he watched his grandfather's skill.
Was this the true strength of a Black List master?
No matter how many times he saw it, Yu Daochen couldn't help but be surprised.
Was this the confidence of a Black List master?
That invincible, supreme aura.
Yu Shuntian walked up to the two Sha Gui, and without a word, he destroyed the one on the right with a wave of his hand. He then looked at the last trembling Sha Gui and said coldly, "Tell me, is your boss the one in the bamboo forest?"
The Sha Gui looked at Yu Shuntian fearfully and shook her head, replying, "No."
Seeing the Sha Gui's nervous expression, Yu Shuntian didn't ask further. He didn't withdraw the silver needles stuck in the Sha Gui's body, but slowly uttered a word: "Release!"
The immobilized Sha Gui regained her freedom of movement, but Yu Shuntian's oppressive aura made her dare not make any small movements.
Yu Shuntian looked at the Sha Gui and said coldly, "No matter who your boss is, go back and tell her that if she dares to harm my family again, I will uproot her and eliminate all traces!"
The Sha Gui nodded fearfully and turned into a wisp of smoke, drifting away.
Watching the departing Sha Gui, Yu Shuntian turned back to Yu Daochen and asked, "Henhen, are you injured anywhere?"
Yu Daochen nodded, somewhat puzzled, "Grandpa, you're just letting her go?"
Yu Shuntian patted Yu Daochen's head, a mysterious smile appearing on his old face, "Do you think that's possible?"
Hearing his grandfather say that, Yu Daochen suddenly recalled.
Grandpa hadn't withdrawn the silver needles earlier; they had remained inside the Sha Gui.
Could it be... Grandpa could remotely control these silver needles!?
Yu Shuntian looked at his grandson, understanding his thoughts, and chuckled, "The power of our Yu family's 'Thirty-Six Heavenly Sun Needles' is beyond your imagination. Although our Yu family has always lived in seclusion and stayed out of worldly affairs, our individual strength is not inferior to the sect leaders of some major sects. For example, your great-grandfather was also a Black List master."
Hearing his grandfather's explanation, Yu Daochen was astonished.
Damn, our Yu family's talent is too excessive.
Anyone you pull out has Black List strength.
But this also indirectly illustrates the terrifying nature of the 'Thirty-Six Heavenly Sun Needles'.
With such a powerful needle technique, if he could learn it and combine it with the Five Elements Arts, he could walk sideways in this world.
Although the Swallowing Flame Art was powerful, it consumed too much Qi, making it unsuitable for prolonged battles.
But the 'Thirty-Six Heavenly Sun Needles' were different; they were perfect for attrition warfare.
Seeing his excitement, Yu Shuntian shook his head and chuckled, "Don't even think about the 'Thirty-Six Heavenly Sun Needles'. With your talent, it's not entirely too late to learn it now, but your time is running out."
Yu Daochen nodded.
He also understood that the 'Thirty-Six Heavenly Sun Needles' were different from other techniques; they couldn't be mastered overnight. One had to build a solid foundation from childhood.
Even if he started learning now, it would be around thirty years old when he achieved mastery.
Could he really live that long?
Yu Daochen shook his head and stopped thinking about it. Instead, he asked, "Grandpa, don't you think those three Sha Gui are a bit different... They are clearly at the Sha Gui realm, but their speed is astonishingly fast, even faster than Ming Gui."
Yu Shuntian also felt that those Sha Gui were a bit unusual and nodded, "The cultivation methods of ghosts and humans are different. A ghost's speed is linked to its strength. Ghosts with high speed will not have significantly less strength."
Yu Daochen also found it strange, "I've exchanged moves with them twice, and in terms of strength, they are indeed no match for Sha Gui."
Yu Shuntian suddenly thought of something and said, "I remember there's a very sinister cultivation method in the martial world that can increase a ghost's speed beyond its natural realm."
"There's such a sinister cultivation method?" Yu Daochen couldn't help but ask.
Yu Shuntian nodded and continued, "This technique was created specifically for ghosts to cultivate, and humans cannot practice it at all."
Hearing his grandfather say that, Yu Daochen couldn't help but become curious.
Who would have thought of creating such a cultivation method that humans cannot practice?
Yu Shuntian smiled faintly and said, "It's getting late. Let's hurry back. You have training tomorrow."
Yu Daochen nodded and followed Yu Shuntian down the mountain.
Yu Shuntian looked back at the distant bamboo forest without saying a word.
If it was truly that person, they must be eradicated.
He couldn't let his grandson have any mishaps.
Upon returning to the old Yu family residence.
The little girl Yu Yijun had already returned to her room to sleep.
Yu Daochen and Yu Shuntian sat at the tea table, drinking tea.
Yu Shuntian picked up his teacup, took a sip, and grinned, "The silver needles are moving."
Hearing this, Yu Daochen, who had just picked up his teacup, put it back down and looked at his grandfather beside him.
In the center of the bamboo forest, within a brightly lit mansion.
A woman in a blood-red dress lay alluringly on a long bench, looking at the kneeling Sha Gui, and said charmingly, "He said that to you?"
Although the woman's voice was charming, the Sha Gui trembled in fear, "That person said exactly that."
"Uproot her and eliminate all traces!" The woman chuckled dismissively, "Do you really think I'm still the same as I was before!?"
Seeing the terrifyingly grim expression on her adult's face, the Sha Gui lowered her head, not daring to breathe.
Inside the old Yu family residence.
Yu Shuntian felt a powerful aura and said, "The mastermind has appeared."
Hearing this, Yu Daochen focused intently on his grandfather and asked, "Grandpa, can you tell what their strength is?"
