Chapter 21

This Psycho Knows Magic [流氓会法术 Liú Máng Huì Fǎ Shù] is the twenty-first chapter of Tong Yao's Guardians of Night.

Summary
At the start of the chapter, the origins of zombie gas and its effects are exposited. It is revealed that zombie gas is actually highly toxic bacterium that is released by infected zombies. When inhaled by a normal person, they die in the best case scenario and become an infectious zombie at worst.

Ye Yan mentions that when an infected zombie appears, an entire city could be devastated as a result. He then notes that at least dozens of people could die judging from the number of onlookers behind him, and the possibility of an infected zombie appearing is higher due to the large amount of people. As he worries about how to deal with the situation, Ximen Guanren gets up from the ground and completely absorbs the cloud of zombie gas into his stomach along with his chicken. The two then collapse onto the ground after Ximen Guanren notes the toxicity of the gas. Ye Yan attempts to help him up, with Ximen remarking that the zombie gas tasted decent and that he feels its overflowing power while cackling to himself. Wuren immediately drags Ye Yan away and hides behind a building behind Ximen Guanren. Wuren mentions that while his negative aura is strong, the president is a polite person who even speaks with honorifics. When asked by Ye Yan why he's telling him this, he warns that what is about transpire is so high-octane, even gods will back away.

Standing up and still chuckling to himself, Ximen Guanren then dashes towards the zombie girl while laughing maniacally and screaming vulgarities at her. Wuren comments that when Ximen begins cackling, that means he's prepared to fight, and when he fights he becomes psychotic. The zombie girl attempts to flee, but Ximen Guanren uses his Pig Crushing Hug technique, capturing her with his enlarged hands.
