"Mr. Mu, what should we do now?"
Li Guangyou looked at Xiao Mu anxiously.
He also saw the evil zombie inside the coffin and realized it wasn't his grandmother.
In fact, since the moment the portrait was damaged, the grave was excavated and the coffin was missing, Li Guangyou had guessed something must have happened to his grandmother and was mentally prepared for it.
"Shh! Be quiet!"
Xiao Mu couldn't help but be nervous in the face of the second-tier evil zombie.
The strength of a zombie is slightly stronger than that of an Evil Ghost, and a second-tier evil zombie is more powerful than a Blue Blood Ghost.
"Let's go. Let's get out of here."
Xiao Mu gently beckoned Li Guangyou.
"Mr. Mu, aren't we going to kill it?"
Li Guangyou asked, perplexed.
Xiao Mu's face was serious, "This is a second-tier evil zombie, its strength is too strong. I must go back and prepare before we can kill it and retrieve your grandmother's coffin."
He needed to go back and prepare. With Xiao Mu's current strength, he wouldn't stand a chance without prior preparation.
After all, the power of a second-tier evil zombie is even greater than a Blue Blood Ghost.
Upon hearing this, Li Guangyou's expression also became serious, he had witnessed Xiao Mu slay Evil Ghosts and Iron corpses and knew full well of his mighty power.
Now, hearing that even Xiao Mu needed to prepare before he could come back and kill the zombie in his grandmother's coffin, he instantly realized the gravity of the situation.
"Mr. Mu, are you confident about this?"
Li Guangyou looked worried; if this second-tier evil zombie was not killed, his whole family would be in danger.
Xiao Mu nodded, "Don't worry, as long as I prepare, I have the ability to kill a second-tier evil zombie."
With sufficient preparation, there is a possibility to kill a second-tier evil zombie.
"Mr. Mu, can I be of any help?"
Li Guangyou felt somewhat relieved.
"No need…"
As Xiao Mu was about to decline, something suddenly crossed his mind and he changed his reply to, "Yes! During this time, make sure no one in your family dies."
Xiao Mu wasn't talking nonsense, he really needed this to happen.
Otherwise, if anyone in Li Guangyou's family who shared a bloodline with his grandmother, including Old Man Li himself and his only son, were to die during this period, their bloodline would immediately be taken by the second-tier evil zombie in the coffin,
If the bloodline is taken, it would accelerate the evolution of the second-tier evil zombie into a third-tier.
Under normal circumstances, for a second-tier evil zombie to evolve into a third-tier one, it would take at least two to three days, but if Li Guangyou's whole family were to die now, the successful bloodline-taking second-tier evil zombie could evolve into a third-tier immediately.
"Keep my whole family from dying?"
Li Guangyou was visibly shocked at Xiao Mu's words. His face turned ghostly pale.
What Xiao Mu said was very serious, from the tone of it, it seemed like if his family were to die during this period, it would lead to catastrophic consequences.
Upon hearing this, Li Guangyou was stunned and speechless, he didn't even dare to ask Xiao Mu the reason.
He was genuinely frightened.
Xiao Mu nodded grave-faced.
"What...what...what should I do?"
Li Guangyou was at a loss.
"Don't worry, with me here, there's nothing to worry about. I still have a way to kill this second-tier evil zombie. For now, let's head back to your place."
Xiao Mu patted Li Guangyou's shoulder in a reassuring manner.
Li Guangyou was heavy-hearted and dared not to ask further. He simply followed Xiao Mu, slowly retracing their steps from the riverside.
The two left the river, returned through the forest, and reached Li Guangyou's home.
"Guangyou, did you find anything?"
Seeing Li Guangyou and Xiao Mu return, Old Man Li quickly approached to ask about their discoveries.
Once Li Guangyou shared what they had found by the river, Old Man Li immediately burst into tears.
Initially, he had thought it was a problem with his father, but it turned out to be his mother. Whether it was the father or the mother facing danger, the pain for Old Man Li was the same.
This was because Li Guangyou had deliberately held back part of the truth to avoid worrying his father.
If Li Guangyou were to tell Old Man Li that if the evil zombie wasn't eliminated, their entire family would die, he would worry whether his elderly father could bear such dreadful news.
Xiao Mu took the opportunity to comfort Old Man Li a little, and then said, "Mr. Li, sir. Condolences, I have to go back now. The evil zombie is formidable. I must return to prepare before coming back to eliminate that second-grade evil zombie."
"Little Mu...you...you're leaving? Right now?"
Old Man Li looked at Xiao Mu in surprise.
Why was he leaving right after he came back?
"Mr. Mu...May I have a word with you?"
Unable to hold back, Li Guangyou took Xiao Mu aside. He didn't want, and wasn't brave enough to let his father know certain things.
"What's up?"
Xiao Mu walked aside as requested.
Li Guangyou's face showed heavy concern, "Mr. Mu, you said before that if my family dies, it would lead to terrible consequences, what would they be?"
Xiao Mu asked quietly, "Do you still remember the evil zombie? The one in your grandmother's coffin?"
Li Guangyou nodded his head.
Xiao Mu elaborated, "That's a second-grade evil zombie. It occupies your grandmother's coffin as it plans to evolve into a third-grade evil zombie by appropriating your family's bloodline."
Even with preparation, Li Guangyou was alarmed by the words, "So, Mr. Mu, are you saying that my family is in danger?"
Seeing Xiao Mu nod, Li Guangyou said with apprehension, "Mr. Mu, do you think that the evil zombie might have underlings who would harm us tonight when you're not here? After all, you said as long as one of my family dies, the evil zombie would quickly evolve."
"If you're not here, isn't our whole family in danger?"
Hearing this, Xiao Mu's brows furrowed. Li Guangyou made a good point, but the situation slightly diverged from his hypothesis.
Xiao Mu wasn't quite sure about the existence of underlings of the evil zombie, or whether there would be a scenario as Li Guangyou suggested, where an accomplice came to stir trouble at his house.
But one thing Xiao Mu was certain about was related to the evil ghost that had appeared in Li Guangyou's secondary residence.
The reason why an evil ghost appeared in the secondary residence was that the Feng Shui of the Li family had been disrupted, ruining their fortune, thus leading to the visitation of the evil ghost.
Presently, Li Guangyou's grandmother's coffin had been snatched by the evil zombie, causing an even more serious disruption to their fortunes. Xiao Mu feared that an evil ghost would appear in Li Guangyou's house tonight.
And once an evil ghost appeared in Li Guangyou's house, how would Li Guangyou and his father, who were just ordinary humans, possibly stand a chance against it?
If the evil ghost were to kill Li Guangyou, or anyone in Li Guangyou's family related to his grandmother by blood, the situation would become severe.
Xiao Mu absolutely didn't want to return after his preparation only to find that the second-grade evil zombie had already evolved into the third grade, making all of his preparations in vain.
But having him stay at Li Guangyou's house was impossible. The situation was dire, Xiao Mu had to return to prepare, otherwise, he wouldn't be able to eliminate the second-grade evil zombie.
But what to do if no one was available to protect Li Guangyou's home? What if the evil ghost indeed arrived?
Xiao Mu started deep in thought with a furrowed brow. After a while, as if thought of something, his eyes lit up, "I have an idea. It will ensure the safety of your family. Mr. Li, please take me to your Ancestral Hall again."
