It seems that this flame has the power to deter Yin Ghosts.

And in the next moment, as the green fire descended, a fiercer yin wind suddenly blew through Menghu Pass. This yin wind was cold and heavy, as if it could chill a person to the bone in an instant.

Even the torches on Menghu Pass turned a jade green under the blowing of this yin wind, and a layer of green frost quietly crept up on the giant stones of the pass without anyone noticing.

Clang clang clang...

At the same time, from the depths of the night, there suddenly came the sound of iron chains dragging and intertwining.

On the other side of the human head formation, everyone sensed that something was wrong and looked up, seeing transparent figures wearing oversized white robes and high hats, with iron chains dangling beneath them, slowly emerging from Menghu Pass.

Their deep gaze fixed on the human head formation below the pass, and the lone souls and wild ghosts rushing into the Guanzhong.

There seemed to be a frown-like emotion, and in the next moment, their bodies split into two, then four, then eight, and in an instant, filled the sky, appearing more numerous than the lone souls and wild ghosts below.

Then, half of them raised the iron chains in their hands, while the other half raised the mourning sticks, swooping down from mid-air.

"Damn it, they summoned the Impermanence..."

Upon seeing the appearance of the Impermanence, the lone souls and wild ghosts, who had just been charging fiercely, were suddenly terrified to the point of crying, without a moment's hesitation, they rushed back towards the rear of the formation, eagerly passing by Gua Shao.

Some even greeted: "The manager is here, we're leaving, Granny..."

Those carrying the sedan chairs also ran away, leaving Gua Shao thrown on the ground, causing her to yelp in pain and get up supporting her waist.

She cursed loudly: "It's you again..."

"It's the Impermanence Ghosts of the Li Family!"

Hu Ma also caught sight of it at a glance, his eyebrows furrowed.

He had just thought that the lone souls and wild ghosts in Gua Shao's hands could be of great use.

Now he realized that it wouldn't work, as these lone souls and wild ghosts naturally fall under the jurisdiction of the Impermanence, they would run at first sight, unlike the ghost soldiers under his Yin General, who were assigned tasks under his command and not subject to the Impermanence.

And this was the reason why Gua Shao had repeatedly suffered at the hands of the Impermanence Li Family.

Since her skills were in the Xinghun Sect, she had to endure these restrictions.

Of course, that was before!

Just at that moment, as the Impermanence appeared before Menghu Pass, while Gua Shao was panicking as the wild ghost army by her side was scared shitless, Hu Ma calmly unleashed a flash of soul light.

A golden book appeared vaguely in his hand, and as the wind blew, it rustled loudly. In an instant, the entire battlefield was illuminated with a grand glow, revealing the majestic figures of Golden Armored Warriors appearing simultaneously.

The terrifying aura almost suppressed the entire battlefield, also surrounding the Impermanence within it.

The Golden Armored Warriors can't harm living people, but they can harm ghostly gods. Of course, theoretically, the Impermanence is specially permitted to cross between the mortal and netherworld to capture ghosts and seize souls. Although the Golden Armored Warriors are stationed in the mortal world, they usually don't interfere with the Impermanence and cannot harm them.

But if pushed hard, it's not impossible to harm them.

Even the Impermanence, who was about to act against the wild ghosts below, was forced to stop, gazing upward in a stupor due to the overwhelming aura.

Hu Ma put away the Golden Armor Register, slowly stepped forward, and staring at the Impermanence beyond the human head formation, shouted:

"Get lost!"

"..." 𝓯𝓻𝓮𝙚𝙬𝓮𝙗𝒏𝙤𝒗𝙚𝙡.𝒄𝒐𝓶

The Impermanence, shivering at his shout, suddenly merged from two into one, rapidly contracting.

Gua Shao was stunned at this scene, then turned and looked at Hu Ma with joy.

The lone souls and wild ghosts she had summoned were all deterred by the golden aura, their fleeing bodies already stiff.

"Hu..."

Amidst this dead silence, a trembling voice emerged from Menghu Pass, where the green fire had just been ignited: "Mr. Hu, you... The Impermanence has a duty to capture ghosts and arrest felons, yet you have the Golden Armored Warriors obstruct them, this might be... might not be appropriate..."

Before he could finish, Hu Ma squinted his eyes and coldly commanded: "You get out too."

The voice immediately weakened and fell silent, whether it was due to fear or if it had genuinely retreated.

But at this moment, behind the suspended Impermanence, a shadow suddenly swayed slightly, and a thick mist surged in the air, becoming denser and heavier, descending gradually toward the ground.

As it touched the ground, a door seemed to open within the mist, and two figures slowly walked out.

As everyone looked, they saw two young women, one wearing a white garment, the other a black one.

They lowered their eyes and slowly bowed to Hu Ma, saying: "Brother of the Hu Family, it's been a long time since we last saw each other in Shangjing City, may we invite you to kindly take a step and allow us sisters to serve you tea..."

Hu Ma recognized them as the twin ladies of the Impermanence Li Family, whom he had met previously in Shangjing City, and indeed, the Hu Family had old ties with them.

But now he kept a cold face, not waiting for them to speak, and said: "That's not necessary."

"No need to bow, no need for courtesy."

"This time I have something to ask, and you two juniors aren't in charge. Have your family lord come over and speak!"

"..."

The two ladies of the Li Family exchanged helpless glances at these words. With differing ranks and identities, they dared not refute.

At this moment, the eerie wind gently blew, and with the presence of the Impermanence, the atmosphere had turned mysterious and oppressive, only before Hu Ma, in the human head formation, Gua Shao looked around eagerly.

Hu Ma saw her intention, nodded to her, and said lightly: "Just do your thing. I want to see who the Li Family will send to stop you!"

"I..."

Upon hearing this, Gua Shao was so moved that she almost burst into tears, her body trembling with excitement.

She wiped her eyes vigorously and said with emotion: "As expected, the elder cares for me the most!"

Then, as she lowered her sleeve, her face was full of excitement and joy, she shouted loudly: "Brothers, did you see that?"

"We have a backer too!"

"From this moment onward, the Li Family can't control us anymore, charge with me!"

"..."

Woohoo!

Her excitement spread to the plethora of lone souls and wild ghosts, who also became excited, with the grievances surging through the human head formation, causing the vast Menghu Pass to visibly tremble.
