Chapter 149: Mutual Destruction
Woof woof woof!
The eerie barking echoed through the nursery.
Outside the door, Chen Jinfah and Jiang Hao were seized with fear.
"Ahao, are all the other dogs at your place tied up? I don't want another one running up here," Chen Jinfah said, unconvinced.
"I'll have the bodyguards watch the dogs and make sure the doors are locked!"
Jiang Hao, not daring to be certain, quickly gave the instructions.
The villa's windows and doors were tightly shut.
The intense barking of the dogs was nerve-wracking for everyone.
Xiaoya, who had been sleeping, woke up with a start. Hearing the barking, her face turned pale as she struggled to get out of bed.
"Hao, what's going on? Why are the dogs barking?"
Jiang Hao, upon hearing his wife's voice, hurried to the bedroom to reassure her.
"Nothing, dear. The dogs might just be having too much fun."
"No, that's not it! The sound is coming from the nursery. Has something happened to the baby?" Perhaps due to a mother's intuition, no matter how Jiang Hao tried to comfort her, Xiaoya insisted on checking the nursery.
Jiang Hao clung to her tightly.
"It's okay, honey, we can have more children..."
"Let me go!"
Xiao Ya, with a strength she didn't know she had, broke free and pushed him away, stumbling as she ran out.
The nursery.
It was in chaos.
The large wolf dog was fierce and incredibly difficult to handle.
The little freak in the crib struggled to get up, its eyes filled with hatred. It opened its mouth and let out a strange, oddly pitched bark.
It seemed to be calling for something.
"Hold them off!"
Lu Fei thought of the many dogs in the courtyard and felt a chill run down his spine.
He had Hu Zi and Jing Jian hold back the large wolf dog, while he looked for an opportunity to get to the crib and swung the jujube wood stick at the little monster's black nose.
He couldn't give them a chance!
"Ao!"
The large wolf dog went berserk and lunged desperately at Lu Fei, with Hu Zi and Jing Jian slashing their blades frantically to stop it.
But Jing Jian's peach wood sword was actually bitten in half by the dog.
Hu Zi swung his blade.
Crack.
The large wolf dog's spine broke, yet it still didn't affect its momentum as it charged at Lu Fei.
It was about to sink its teeth into Lu Fei's arm.
Jing Jianxin, with a bold move, pounced forward and grabbed the large dog's head, rolling to the ground with it.
Lu Fei brought his stick down with great force.
This was not a probing strike; it was infused with magical power.
Boom!
Blue arcs of electricity flickered.
The strange cries abruptly stopped. The little freak's body violently trembled, and a large amount of black gas emerged as its eyes rapidly lost their luster.
It collapsed completely on the crib.
At the same time.
In the master bedroom, Xiaoya's eyes rolled back as she fainted once again.
"Ow ow ow!"
The eyes of the large wolf dog turned blood red in an instant, and it fiercely bit down on Jing Jian's arm.
Blood immediately gushed out.
"Brother Jing!" Lu Fei exclaimed in shock.
"Manager Lu, don't worry about me, act quickly!"
Jing Jian's face contorted in extreme pain as he desperately held onto the large wolf dog.
Hu Zi hurried forward and pressed down on the body of the large wolf dog with all his might.
Lu Fei channeled his magic power as fast as he could and struck the large wolf dog's snout with a hard blow from his staff.
Buzz!
The large wolf dog convulsed all over, letting out a piercing wail, and a large cloud of black gas emanated from its body.
A few seconds later.
The body of the large wolfhound went limp, its blood-covered teeth released Jin Jian's arm, and it twitched from time to time.
That mass of black aura coalesced into the shape of a dog and fled in panic.
This is the true form of the Yin Dog!
At this moment, the sun had already set, and without sunlight, it would surely be impossible to catch up if it managed to escape.
"Jin Brother, hold on!"
Lu Fei, without checking Jin Jian's injuries, grabbed his thunder-struck jujube wood staff and immediately gave chase.
The Yin Dog, like a mass of black fog, passed directly through the door.
And at that moment,
Xiao Ya happened to run over.
With a howl, the Yin Dog suddenly rushed into her body.
Xiaoya's body stiffened, standing dumbly in place. Several dog hairs visibly grew on her pale face, transforming her once beautiful visage into something utterly terrifying.
"Wife! What's wrong with you?"
Jiang Hao, who had chased over, was instantly terrified by the sight.
"She has been possessed by a ghost dog!" Lu Fei's heart sank.
He hadn't expected Xiaoya to run over at this moment, giving the ghost dog an opportunity.
"What?" Jiang Hao's body trembled.
Xiaoya's body bent down, and she supported herself on the ground, her hands and feet touching the ground like a dog, her face contorted as she bared her teeth at the two of them.
"What should we do? Boss Lu, save my wife!" Jiang Hao was extremely anxious.
"Brother Hao, don't worry, I will definitely save her."
Lu Fei, holding the jujube wood stick, cautiously approached and tried to take action.
Xiao Ya didn't avoid it and deliberately took a hit, immediately letting out a sharp, painful cry.
Lu Fei was startled and quickly pulled back.
"This yin dog is biting tightly onto Madam's soul, intending to perish together with her. If I act, Madam might die as well."
"Then what should we do?" Jiang Hao was almost going mad.
"First, we need to control Madam and find a way to drive the yin dog out of her body," Lu Fei quickly regained his composure.
"Okay!" Jiang Hao hurriedly called for help.
Chen Jinfa and Ah Long ran over and were both shocked at the scene.
Everyone worked together to hold down Xiao Ya, who kept emitting howls.
Jiang Hao was heartbroken, but he knew the situation was critical. If he showed any weakness now, his wife would be beyond saving. He gritted his teeth and, turning away from the others, secretly wiped away his tears.
"Xiao Ya..." Jing Jian's face was pale, and he leaned heavily against the door frame, holding his blood-soaked arm, filled with anxiety.
"Manager Lu, you need to think of something quickly."
"Brother Hao, do you have any black pepper at home?" Lu Fei asked calmly.
"Black pepper? There should be some in the kitchen. Aunt Wang, Aunt Wang, go get the black pepper quickly!" Jiang Hao shouted at the terrified nannies.
An older nanny hurriedly ran to the kitchen and fetched a bottle of black pepper.
"Manager Lu!"
Lu Fei took the black pepper, quickly opened the cap, and placed it under Xiaoya's nose.
Dogs have a keen sense of smell and are most afraid of such pungent spices.
Xiaoya's nose couldn't help but twitch.
Suddenly, her mouth opened wide, and she let out a loud sneeze.
A cloud of black smoke surged out from her nostrils, gradually coalescing into the shape of a dog.
"It's out!"
Lu Fei immediately picked up the lightning-struck jujube wood stick.
But after the Yin dog came out, it was still firmly biting a phantom figure in its mouth.
It actually brought Xiao Ya's soul out with it!
This beast is truly ruthless!
Lu Fei swung the stick at the Yin dog.
Blue arcs of electricity flashed.
The Yin dog let out a mournful cry and completely turned to ashes.
Xiao Ya's soul floated up, like a rootless duckweed, drifting with the wind.
"Her body is too weak; her soul can't return!"
What should I do?
Without a soul, a person becomes a fool.
Lu Fei also became anxious.
"Right, the black umbrella!"
As sweat beads trickled down his forehead, he suddenly remembered the black umbrella in his backpack.
This black umbrella has the ability to capture souls; perhaps it could work.
There was no time for hesitation. He immediately took out the black umbrella and opened it over Xia Ya's soul.
Inside the canopy of the umbrella, strange patterns instantly lit up.
Eerie and demonic red flowers bloomed, and Xia Ya's soul was immediately sucked in.
