My Slap Was a Little Too Strong

"I live right across the street. There's a clinic there, and the doctor is very experienced with bruises and sprains. You can just take me there," the old granny said.

Zhou Kai's eyes moved slightly.

She is staying in the villa area, yet she ran to the opposite bank and coincidentally fell next to my doorstep. She was really fated to meet me.

After some contemplation, Zhou Kai said expressionlessly with a smile, "That'll do. I'll carry you over."

Then, Zhou Kai stepped forward and picked the old granny up before looking at Little Leopard Cat.

Little Leopard Cat said, "I'll go with you."

Zhou Kai nodded and walked around the river with the old granny on his back.

The distance was only a few dozen meters long between the two sides of the Red River, but the real estate prices were nearly ten times higher there.

This was because the previous 10-year city plan of Anyang had been created right across the river. A highway, a large park, and a large hospital had been built along the river, driving residential and commercial development to the area, which slowly flourished.

However, dozens of meters away across the river was a residential wasteland. Even though the locals hooted its future value, there was no news for now. Who would be happy to throw their money there and wait for nothing? These days, there were opportunities to make a fortune everywhere, so doing anything was better than not knowing when one could earn money.

Therefore, the Red River was still only an old bridge that could allow electric mountain bikes to pass through when not even cars could do so. They had to take a detour a few kilometers away from the new bridge.

This was what Zhou Kai was skeptical about.

The old woman was really old and wouldn't stay at home. She had actually come out early in the morning.

Despite coming out, you also walked to the opposite bank? You're not afraid of the wind on the bridge that will blow you into the water either.

Even though he was skeptical, Zhou Kai couldn't figure out what this old granny was up to.

Did she want money? She had more money than he was worth.

Was it about love? Bullsh*t. What kind of rich woman couldn't find a pretty boy? Even a fat woman could find love if she had money, let alone an old woman.

As he was thinking, the corners of Zhou Kai's mouth suddenly twitched and he breathed in cold air.

All of a sudden, he felt pain on his back. Before he could speak, a familiar voice was heard.

Ding-Dong: An evil anomaly attacked you. Evil Aura Resistance +1.

F*ck! Evil anomaly? Where had that come from?

Zhou Kai paused and widened his eyes.

"What's wrong, little fellow?" the old granny asked gently as she rested on Zhou Kai's shoulder.

Zhou Kai looked at Little Leopard Cat.

Little Leopard Cat blinked with an innocent expression.

Zhou Kai laughed before he trembled and carried the old granny over his shoulders, scaring her.

"It's fine. I'm just a little hungry. I'll eat breakfast later on." Then, Zhou Kai continued to walk.

This, however, startled the old granny, who looked at Zhou Kai in disbelief.

When she was certain that Zhou Kai was fine some time later, a green light flashed in her eyes. Then, her hand on Zhou Kai's shoulder hovered with a black light that blended into Zhou Kai's body.

Ding-Dong: An evil anomaly attacked you. Evil Aura Resistance +1.

Upon hearing that, Zhou Kai laughed.

There was indeed something wrong with this old woman. Was she an evil anomaly?

He he. This Ding-Dong sound seems pretty impressive. I can become stronger thanks to evil anomalies and ghosts.

Based on this deduction, most anomalies can't harm me directly!

In that case…

Zhou Kai hugged the old granny's thighs and wrung hard.

The old granny, who had not expected that, straightened her body in pain. She couldn't help but let out a cry, producing a fox-like sound.

Zhou Kai asked in surprise, "What's wrong? Did I touch your wound?"

The old granny's lips trembled from the pain. She was both shocked and furious yet she still said, "A little. Let me down so that I can rest for a while."

Zhou Kai said firmly, "I can't. You're so badly injured that you have to receive medical treatment quickly. Otherwise, your injury could lead to hidden danger."

The old granny responded, "It won't. After this touch, my sprain seems to have gotten better. Let me down to have a look."

"This is an illusion. You must have been unconscious because of the pain. It is better to seek medical attention." Zhou Kai's hand once again wrung her.

"Ow ow ow ow…"

The old granny's pain was unbearable, so she slapped Zhou Kai's neck subconsciously, covering it with a large patch of darkness.

Ding-Dong: An evil anomaly attacked you. Evil Aura Resistance +1.

Ding-Dong: An evil anomaly attacked you. Exorcism +1.

Two consecutive ding-dong sounds were heard, surprising Zhou Kai.

The second one surprised him even more. As usual, he could level up after the third one.

The leveled up Exorcism made Zhou Kai feel an inexplicable power in his body. This power was as weak as a balance spring.

However, it was as warm and masculine as the rays of the sun.

Was this Exorcism specifically designed to restrain evil aura?

Holy crap! I won't be afraid of any demons and spirits anymore in the future.

"You… This is impossible. How did you…" After attacking him continuously and consuming too much evil aura, the old granny realized that Zhou Kai was unscathed. She was dumbfounded as a result.

He was an ordinary human who didn't cultivate and had no Dharma artifacts to protect him. How could he have withstood her evil magic? This made little sense.

"What about me?" Zhou Kai asked as he continued to use his force at the same time.

The old granny, who could no longer tolerate the pain, let an immense force erupt. She struggled and finally broke free from Zhou Kai's body and jumped down. That agile move of hers made it seem as if she had never sprained her ankle.

"Well, you're fine already! What a miracle!" Zhou Kai pretended to be surprised and shocked.

The old granny felt pain in her legs and stared at Zhou Kai coldly and furiously.

Do you think I'm dumb? You pretended to be honest while pinching me. I've misjudged you. You are really bad, little fellow.

"Big Brother, be careful. This is the Fox Spirit Lady." Little Leopard Cat finally spoke at that moment. After she said that, she dashed to the side and waved her little fists to cheer him up. "Big Brother, you can do it. Hit the Fox Spirit Lady. Big Brother, you can do it. Hit the Fox Spirit Lady."

Zhou Kai was speechless.

"Little girl, you must have a death wish." The old granny's eyes turned green suddenly, and a very evil aura encircled her vaguely.

Slap!

Upon seeing the old granny's instant changes, Zhou Kai subconsciously jumped over and slapped her body.

Thanks to that slap, the hint of Exorcism power that had been conceived erupted directly.

In a flash, the old granny, who had been filled with evil aura, collapsed weakly on the ground and a shadow flew out of her body, screaming sharply in the sunlight before swiftly heading to the bottom of the bridge not far away.

Since this had taken place too quickly, when Zhou Kai came back to his senses, the old granny, who had collapsed on the ground, suddenly melted like a pool of liquid. Soon, only her clothes were left.

Shocked, Zhou Kai looked at Little Leopard Cat.

Little Leopard Cat, who was searching for the shadow that had escaped, looked at Zhou Kai and said in surprise, "Big Brother, you are really powerful. You harmed the Fox Spirit Lady this time."

"What is going on?" Zhou Kai was a bit confused.

The power of Exorcism seemed to be a little too strong, as it had turned the Fox Spirit Lady back into her original form.

Plus, the Fox Spirit Lady's changes had been a little horrifying. Why had she turned into liquid? Was his Exorcism power similar to the Bone-Dissolving Palm?

"This is a half-dead person. The Fox Spirit Lady's hiding method involves finding a dying person, possessing them, and using evil magic to conceal their breath so they are just like a real living person. However, my mother said that the evil method of the Fox Spirit Lady is detrimental. Every half-dead person can only be hidden for a maximum of seven months. After that, they must change their body. That's why the Fox Spirit Lady can't be found, Big Brother. However, this time, you broke its evil magic directly so it won't even be able to hide in the future."

As she said that, Little Leopard Cat had a gleeful expression on her face.
