Chapter 457: Chapter 423: Principle of Thermal Expansion and Contraction

The Juice Maiden let out a cold snort but still went ahead and untied everyone in the woodshed, including Young Master Qi.

"Miss Juice, are, are we going to start fighting our way out now? Just waiting for your command."

’Slap!’

Another vicious slap flew toward Young Master Qi’s pig-like face, making the others’ cheeks twitch involuntarily.

"Start a fight? Do you really think more people guarantees victory?"

"Then..."

Seeing the confused look on Young Master Qi’s face, the Juice Maiden couldn’t help but silently curse, ’What a waste of space.’

"Idiot, aside from the little Taoist, the other three are not weak at all. Probably notorious figures from the Demon Sect. A head-on confrontation would be too risky."

Whether it was Jiang Xiao, who would slaughter whole families without a second thought,

or that lolita who kept saying she wanted to devour Qi Er,

or the Lustful Demon Taoist now in the side room practically naked and endlessly giggling.

All of them put a great deal of psychological pressure on the Juice Maiden.

Really...this was just too evil!

That’s why she hid in the water tank and waited until just before midnight, which was when her strength was at its peak.

Young Master Qi scratched his head, "So, what should we do now?"

"Hmph!" The Juice Maiden coldly snorted again, a smug smile on her tempting face: "Fortunately, I had the foresight to hide in the water tank. They all still think I’m going to come in from outside, right?"

"You mean..."

"They’ve foolishly split up, haven’t they? Doesn’t that give us the chance to defeat them one by one?"

True to the saying that speed is the essence of war, the Juice Maiden instructed Young Master Qi and all his men to keep hiding in the woodshed without making any noise, waiting for her signal.

It wasn’t until the Juice Maiden had left that Young Master Qi’s followers, scratching their heads in confusion, asked,

"Young Master, Miss Juice mentioned a signal... what kind of signal would that be?"

Hmm?

Young Master Qi’s brow furrowed. This was something he wasn’t very clear on himself, but he couldn’t lose face in front of his subordinates.

"Humph, a signal is a signal. You will naturally understand when the time comes."

.....

After hesitating outside the woodshed for a while, the Juice Maiden finally decided to make her move against the Lustful Demon Taoist first.

Since that fool Qi Er had blurted out his liking for being ’juiced,’

She would turn his plan against him and ’juice’ him until he was thoroughly drenched first~

Jiang Xiao was still eagerly waiting in the big willow tree outside, while Bai Yi, the little brat, could no longer hold out and had fallen asleep in Jiang Xiao’s arms.

"How strange, it’s almost midnight and still no movement..."

Could it be that the ghost girl isn’t taking the main road?

Jiang Xiao, with his face full of doubt, contemplated whether to change his observation spot.

....

Spirit sat upright before the altar, his eyelids fighting a battle...

Chang An had completed setting up the altar and now had no further use, and to protect him, Spirit had already sent him to a side room.

’Huff~’

Though the doors and windows were clearly closed tight, a chilling wind suddenly swept through the room.

Here it comes!

Spirit, groggy with sleep, was instantly alert and began to swing his long hair, searching for his target.

He brought his fingers together as if to form a sword and flicked a few droplets of water from the white porcelain bowl on the altar across his eyes.

"Heaven’s law be clear, earth’s law be smart, yin and yang unite in essence, water’s spirit reveal your form. Spirit water capture, reaching heaven and earth, abide by the law, Yin Yang Magic Mirror, reveal the true form swiftly, swiftly show the true form!"

Hmm!

I saw her!

The enchanting figure of the other party was hiding behind the screen, seemingly unaware that she had been discovered by Steely Dan, quietly attempting a sneak attack.

"Ha, by my command, wandering spirits reveal yourselves at once! Any defiance shall result in immediate confinement to the phantom realm—swiftly, as the decree commands, rise!"

Steely Dan let out a light shout, and the spiritual water from the porcelain bowl was sucked into his mouth.

He planned to spray it directly into the face of the female ghost to make her fully visible!

Wouldn’t he then be able to do whatever he pleased with her?

Female ghosts... shouldn’t be protected by law, right?

Juice Squeezer was taken aback when she saw the other party puffing up his cheeks, ready to spit at her, and she immediately realized she’d been spotted. Panic crossed her face as she kept moving backwards.

In her carelessness, she stepped on her dress hem, leading to a "rip" sound...

What the heck?

The puffed-up cheeks of Steely Dan instantly deflated, and the spiritual water dribbled down from his lecherous lips.

(*´﹃｀*) Goose box, goose box...

True to her name, Juice Squeezer; damn, those are some big, embracing waves!

Before the battle even started, it gave off a feeling of wanting to tremble and fall, of wanting to die and to be immortal.

Steely Dan’s nose tingled, thinking that Qi Er the kid definitely didn’t lie to me!

How long had it been...

So long that Steely Dan had forgotten what that ocean tasted like.

Having been in the Taoist community for half a year, he even thought at one point that his Taoist name "Steely Dan" would define the rest of his life. But who would have thought...

Swallowing the hot tears back, Steely Dan took a deep breath.

"Can you see me?"

Juice Squeezer looked at Steely Dan before her with a curious face.

The latter sucked back his spit and adopted a dauntless expression of ’come at me.’

"Hehe, demoness, what time is it... ah, I mean, what’s the occasion? Stop beating around the bush. If you have any ruthless techniques, don’t hide them anymore. Come on, use them to your heart’s content on me! Torture me harshly, squeeze the life out of me! Busy little baby!"

Juice Squeezer: "?"

Hmph, she had originally been scared by his nonsensical incantations, but as expected, a Lustful Demon Taoist is still a Lustful Demon Taoist.

"What are you staring for? As a reputed and orthodox Taoist, I naturally wouldn’t take advantage of others. I’ll give you three moves, come on!"

Having said that, Steely Dan casually sat on the chair behind the ritual platform, legs wide apart, in an unbeatable posture.

However...

Seeing the opponent’s weapon revealed, Juice Squeezer squinted her eyes and then let out a sneer, her face clearly showing derision.

As if to say: Is that all you’ve got?

Steely Dan: "?"

They say women have a keen sixth sense, but men can be especially sensitive at certain times, in certain places, and to certain looks.

Juice Squeezer didn’t say a word, just a dismissive squint.

But in that moment, it was more powerful than a thousand words...

Instantly, Steely Dan’s face turned red, veins bulging on his forehead, and he argued.

"Winter can’t be counted as small... Winter! ... When it’s cold, how can it be counted as small?"

He then started talking about things Juice Squeezer couldn’t understand, like "I’m not a peanut-eating drunkard," and stuff about the principle of thermal expansion and contraction.

Seeing Juice Squeezer’s skeptical face, Steely Dan started bragging about his illustrious past of rising with the sun and toiling day and night.

"Really? Are you lying to me, puppy?" Juice Squeezer asked doubtfully.

"If I lie, I’m a dog! Whether the legends about me are true or not, we shall know after a fair fight—a battle, I mean!" Steely Dan stood proud, full of fighting spirit!
