Chapter 195 The Devil's Sound Fills My Ears
Chen Yu stared at the skill introduction of "Soul Diva" on the system panel, his eyebrows twisted into knots.
This system is really becoming more and more unpredictable. Singing attack?
The attack power depends on the unpleasantness of the song? What the hell is going on?
He scratched his head, feeling his mind was a mess.
At this moment, the door knocked. Chen Yu opened the door and it was Lin Qingxue.
She was wearing a simple white dress, her hair was tied up with a white jade hairpin, and there was still a trace of anger on her face.
"Chen Yu, tell me honestly, what's going on between you and the Ghost King?"
Lin Qingxue asked straight to the point as soon as she entered the room, with a hint of questioning in her tone.
Chen Yu quickly explained, "It's really nothing, I just danced. If you don't believe me, ask Ruyan and Haitang."
Lin Qingxue glanced at him and said, "Of course they are speaking in your favor."
Chen Yu smiled bitterly. This woman was really jealous. He took out a piece of Netherworld Candy from his cloth bag and handed it to Lin Qingxue. "Here, it's a gift from the Ghost King. Try it."
Lin Qingxue hesitated for a moment, but still took the Netherworld Candy and put it in her mouth.
A cool breeze instantly spread, refreshing her spirits.
"It tastes pretty good." Lin Qingxue said, her tone softening a little.
Chen Yu struck while the iron was hot and took out Mengpo soup and red spider lily, saying, "These are also gifts from the Ghost King. You can take them and play with them."
Lin Qingxue looked at the Mengpo soup and red spider lily in Chen Yu's hand and asked curiously, "What are these?"
Chen Yu explained, "Meng Po soup can make people forget their past. Red spider lilies are flowers that grow on the road to the underworld. They are said to bring people back to life."
Lin Qingxue was very interested in these things from the ghost world, so she took it and looked at it carefully.
Liu Ruyan and Haitang also walked in. When they saw the Mengpo soup and red spider lily in Lin Qingxue's hands, they both showed envious expressions.
Chen Yu then gave them some specialties from the ghost world, which calmed their jealousy.
In the room, four women surrounded Chen Yu, chattering about things in the ghost world. The atmosphere was relaxed and cheerful.
Suddenly, there was a noise outside the inn.
"What's going on?" Chen Yu frowned and walked to the window to look out.
I saw a group of people gathered outside the inn, pointing in one direction.
"It seems like some monster is coming." Liu Ruyan also walked to the window and said.
Chen Yu's eyes lit up when he heard the word "demon beast." He had just wanted to test the power of his new skill, "Soul Diva." Wasn't this a good opportunity?
"Let's go and take a look," said Chen Yu.
Lin Qingxue, Liu Ruyan and Haitang also became interested and followed Chen Yu out of the inn.
Outside the inn, a burly, bearded man anxiously told everyone, "That monster is incredibly ferocious. It's already destroyed several villages. Everyone, run for your lives!"
When everyone heard this, they immediately panicked and fled in all directions.
Chen Yu looked at the chaotic crowd and thought to himself, this monster is really arrogant.
He turned to Lin Qingxue and the other two and said, "Wait here for me. I'll be back soon."
Lin Qingxue was a little worried, "Chen Yu, you have to be careful."
Chen Yu smiled and said, "Don't worry, I'm fine."
After saying that, Chen Yu walked towards the direction where the monster appeared.
Not long after walking, Chen Yu saw a huge ape.
The monkey was ten feet tall, covered with black hair, and had blood-red eyes, looking ferocious.
The giant ape was frantically destroying the surrounding houses. Its huge fists hit the ground, making a loud "boom" sound, and the ground began to tremble.
Chen Yu looked at the mad giant ape and thought to himself, this monster is really powerful.
He took a deep breath, activated the "Soul Diva" skill, and began to sing.
"Ah... Five Rings, you have one more ring than Four Rings..."
As soon as Chen Yu opened his mouth, everyone around him was stunned. This singing voice was simply a devilish sound that filled the ears, so unpleasant that it made people want to die.
Lin Qingxue, Liu Ruyan and Haitang also covered their ears, with painful expressions on their faces.
However, after hearing the singing, the giant ape suddenly stopped attacking and showed a painful expression.
It held its head, rolled on the ground, and howled.
When Chen Yu saw the giant ape's reaction, he was secretly delighted. It seemed that this "Soul Diva" skill was really useful.
He continued to sing, but his voice became increasingly harsher and harsher, and the giant ape became increasingly distressed.
In the end, the giant ape actually knelt on the ground and surrendered to Chen Yu.
Chen Yu stopped singing as he looked at the giant ape kneeling on the ground. The air around them seemed to suddenly become fresher. Lin Qingxue, Liu Ruyan, and Haitang all breathed a sigh of relief, rubbing their ears, their faces filled with relief.
"Chen Yu, what...what are you singing?" Liu Ruyan asked with lingering fear, her voice still trembling.
Chen Yu chuckled, "How's the new skill I learned? It's pretty powerful, right?"
Lin Qingxue looked at the giant ape, frowning slightly. "This song has an effect on people, so it's better to use it less in the future."
Chen Yu nodded, "I know. I won't use this trick unless it's absolutely necessary."
At this time, an old man wearing animal skins, with a thin body and gray hair walked out of the crowd.
He walked up to Chen Yu and bowed deeply, "Thank you for your help, young man. I am deeply grateful."
Chen Yu quickly helped the old man up, "Don't be so polite, old man. It is the duty of cultivators like us to exorcise demons and monsters."
The old man looked at Chen Yu gratefully, then pointed at the giant ape and said, "Young man, this evil beast has destroyed several of our villages. Please execute it to serve as a warning to others."
The surrounding villagers also echoed and asked Chen Yu to kill the giant ape.
Chen Yu looked at the giant ape, pondered for a moment, and said, "Although this giant ape has committed many evil deeds, his crimes do not deserve the death penalty.
I see it has submitted to me now, so why not let it atone for its sins and help you rebuild your home."
The old man and the villagers looked at each other, all hesitant.
Seeing this, Chen Yu continued, "Don't worry, I will supervise it. If it dares to do evil again, I will not let it go."
The old man thought about it and felt that what Chen Yu said made sense, so he nodded in agreement.
Chen Yu turned to look at the giant ape and said, "Did you hear that? Behave well in the future and try to reform yourself as soon as possible."
The giant ape lowered its head and let out a low growl, indicating its understanding.
Chen Yu said to the old man, "Old man, rebuilding our home will require a lot of materials. I have some silver here. You can use it first."
As he spoke, Chen Yu took out a bag of silver from his cloth bag and handed it to the old man.
The old man quickly declined, "Young man, how can this be so embarrassing?"
Chen Yu smiled and said, "Don't be polite, old man. Just consider it a small token of my appreciation."
The old man then accepted the silver and expressed his gratitude to Chen Yu again.
Chen Yu looked at the busy figures of the old man and villagers, and his heart was filled with a sense of accomplishment.
He didn't expect that he could solve a crisis by singing and subdue a powerful monster by the way.
Lin Qingxue walked over to Chen Yu and said softly, "Chen Yu, your singing just now was unpleasant, but it was very powerful."
Chen Yu smiled and said, "Of course, this is my unique skill."
Liu Ruyan also came over and said, "Chen Yu, can you teach me? I also want to learn this move."
Chen Yu shook his head. "Not everyone can learn this move. It requires talent."
Haitang also pulled Chen Yu's sleeve and said in a baby voice, "Brother Chen Yu, I want to learn too."
Chen Yu smiled and touched Haitang's head. "You are still young. You can learn when you grow up."
The sun gradually set and the sky gradually darkened.
Chen Yu returned to the inn with Lin Qingxue, Liu Ruyan and Haitang.
When the innkeeper saw Chen Yu coming back, he quickly came over to greet him, "Young man, you're back!
We are really grateful to you today. If you hadn't intervened, our inn would have been destroyed by that monster."
Chen Yu waved his hand and said, "It's just a small favor, you're welcome."
The innkeeper added, "Young man, to thank you, your accommodation tonight is completely free. Furthermore, I've specially prepared a table of food and wine. Please be sure to enjoy it."
Chen Yu did not refuse and agreed with a smile.
The innkeeper quickly ordered his waiter to prepare wine and food.
After a while, a table full of delicious food and wine was placed on the table.
Chen Yu, Lin Qingxue, Liu Ruyan and Haitang sat around the table, eating delicious food and chatting about what happened today.
"Chen Yu, your performance today was so awesome!" Liu Ruyan raised her glass and said to Chen Yu.
Lin Qingxue and Haitang also raised their glasses and toasted Chen Yu.
Chen Yu smiled and clinked glasses with them, then drank it all in one gulp.
After three rounds of wine and five dishes, Chen Yu felt a little drunk.
He looked at the three beautiful women in front of him, and his heart was filled with happiness.
"It's my blessing to be with you." Chen Yu said with emotion.
When Lin Qingxue, Liu Ruyan and Haitang heard Chen Yu's words, they all showed sweet smiles on their faces.
Outside the inn, the night deepened and the sky was dotted with stars.
A dark shadow appeared silently on the roof of the inn. He stared quietly at the room where Chen Yu was, with a cold light flashing in his eyes.
"Chen Yu, just wait for me, I will make you pay the price!"
The shadow whispered, his voice filled with resentment.
