Although Lu Yuan didn’t know the exact situation in the inn, he couldn’t let Zhuang Yangbing leave now.

After all, right now, the more people they had, the safer they would be.

If they were in danger, Lu Yuan would not feel guilty selling Zhuang Yangbing out.

The latter obviously knew this too.

Hence, he wanted to use his injury to see if he could temporarily leave Lu Yuan and ng Ruyan.

After all, Zhuang Yangbing could sense danger from the two of them.

ng Ruyan was still manageable for him. He felt that although this female cultivator was powerful, even if he couldn’t defeat her, he should have no problem escaping.

However, Lu Yuan was different. He could not see through Lu Yuan at all.

If not for the many tricks that Lu Yuan had displayed, he would have even thought that Lu Yuan was a mortal.

However, how could a mortal end up in a place like this?

There were only two possible reasons why he could not see through Lu Yuan.

Either Lu Yuan was powerful enough to completely conceal his aura, or he had so kind of divine ability of concealnt that could ensure that his aura would not be exposed.

Zhuang Yangbing felt that both were at play.

The only thing he knew was that Lu Yuan’s cultivation was definitely not at the Core Formation Stage.

This was because when a Core Formation Stage cultivator used their spiritual energy, not only did the quality of their spiritual energy far exceed that of ordinary cultivators, but it also carried the power of the cultivator’s own golden core.

It could be said that cultivators would only officially step onto the path of celestial cultivation when they reached the Core Formation Stage.

Therefore, Zhuang Yangbing wanted to use the horse-headed ghost in the inn to test Lu Yuan’s strength.

After all, the horse-headed ghost’s strength was not rely at Level 7 or 8 of the Foundation Establishnt Realm as he had claid; it was actually at the Pseudo Core Stage.

In other words, every ghost with a Ghost Pearl was a Pseudo Core Stage cultivator.

When their Ghost Pearls coalesced to a certain extent, they would undergo a qualitative change.

They would beco Kings of Hell with the strength of the Core Formation Stage.

Zhuang Yangbing was very wary of the horse-headed ghost.

However, under Lu Yuan’s watch, he had no chance to escape.

After Zhuang Yangbing pretended to recover from his injuries, the three of them entered the inn together.

As soon as he entered the inn, Lu Yuan slled a rotten stench and a pungent sll of blood.

It was as if he had entered a slaughterhouse.

Zhuang Yangbing and ng Ruyan did not notice that Lu Yuan had started setting up an array after entering the inn.

Lu Yuan threw so stones on the ground as he walked.

These stones engraved with special symbols did not do anything after falling to the ground.

However, when they ford a certain pattern and Lu Yuan activated them, these stones would serve as the foundation of the array and instantly activate it.

Lu Yuan called these stones array stones.

While Lu Yuan was setting up the array stones, the three of them slowly arrived at the entrance to the backyard.

Listening to the sound of at being chopped coming from the door, the three of them looked at each other and took out their magic instrunts.

ng Ruyan took out an ordinary Qingyun Sword, while Lu Yuan took out the geotric compass that he had used before.

As for Zhuang Yangbing, he actually took out a bow and arrow!

Lu Yuan looked at Zhuang Yangbing, who was holding a bow, and could not help but ask, “Brother Li, not many cultivators in your Xueyang Sect use bows and arrows, right?”

When faced with Lu Yuan’s suspicion, Zhuang Yangbing replied seriously, “Brother Chen, you’re mistaken. Just because no one in my sect uses it doesn’t an I can’t use it. 1 am not talented, but I believe that 1 have so proficiency in archery.”

He added, “Brother Li, you know a thing or two about arrays and pill refinent. So isn’t it normal for to know a thing or two about archery? When we fight later, 1 will show the two of you my exquisite archery skills. Don’t worry.”

Looking at Zhuang Yangbing’s shaless expression, Lu Yuan nearly cursed out loud.

He grunted internally, “Damn it, what do you an by it’s normal for you to know a thing or two about archery? I’m too embarrassed to expose you. 1 think you just want to hide in the back and decide whether or not to escape depending on the situation!”

“Don’t talk to about how you use bows and arrows. I can tell what you’re thinking!”

However, Lu Yuan did not have much right to mock Zhuang Yangbing, because he was not innocent himself.

From the very beginning, Lu Yuan had said that he was an array master and that his secondary cultivation was in Pill Refinent Technique.

It was as if he was just a logistics staff mber.

Zhuang Yangbing wouldn’t believe him if he claid that he wasn’t intentionally hiding his strength.

He did not actually believe that Lu Yuan was as helpless as he seed.

A rascal knew a rascal the best. Lu Yuan and Zhuang Yangbing both knew that the other party was not a good person.

Among the three of them, only ng Ruyan was the sincerest.

She was clearly a demoness, but in terms of deviousness, she could not compare to the two people beside her.

However, although the three of them had different sches in mind, one thing would not change.

The three of them needed to kill the horse-headed ghost in the backyard.

If they didn’t kill this horse-headed ghost, they wouldn’t be able to acquire the congratulatory gift to enter the King of Hell’s official residence.

If they could not do so, they couldn’t escape the Gates of Hell.

“Alright, say no more. I’ll take the lead.”

ng Ruyan, who thought she was the strongest, stood up.

She felt that even though Zhuang Yangbing and Lu Yuan were both quite strong in this team, with her true strength, she should still be the strongest among the three.

Therefore, she was undoubtedly the only one who was most suitable to take the lead.

Otherwise, god knows how long it would take for these two cowardly fellows to finally decide on attacking.

When they heard that ng Ruyan was going to take the lead, Lu Yuan and Zhuang Yangbing did not say anything and tacitly agreed.

Not long after, ng Ruyan arrived at the backyard and pushed open the door.

After pushing open the door, Lu Yuan and ng Ruyan finally saw the horse-headed ghost that Zhuang Yangbing had talked about.

Lu Yuan imdiately checked the other party’s information through the system.

[Horse-headed Ghost – Preta Path)

[Cultivation: Foundation Establishnt Stage Level 9]

[Description: The horse-headed ghost is a warhorse that has fallen to the Preta Path. Due to the influence of the battlefield, it is still filled with killing intent.] The ghost was only at the Level 9 of the Foundation Establishnt Stage?

Seeing the horse-headed ghost’s information, Lu Yuan felt strange and secretly heaved a sigh of relief.

This was because he originally thought that the ghost in this inn should have strength at the Pseudo Core Stage.

“Neigh!”

When the horse-headed ghost saw Lu Yuan and the other two, it imdiately neighed excitedly.

Not long after, a large number of short but big-headed hungry ghosts appeared in front of them.

There were more than 10 of them.

Without exception, they were all at the Foundation Establishnt stage.

Coupled with the horse-headed ghost at Level 9 of the Foundation Establishnt Stage, these guys could already pose a threat to Lu Yuan’s group.

Facing such a situation, ng Ruyan remained calm.

She held her Qingyun Sword with one hand and said, “Junior Brother, Brother Li, I’ll leave those little ghosts to you.”

Lu Yuan replied, “Don’t worry, Senior Sister.”

Zhuang Yangbing added, “Sister ng, don’t worry. 1 guarantee that those little ghosts won’t get in your way.”

ng Ruyan nodded and walked towards the horse-headed ghost who was slowly standing up.

While walking, ng Ruyan’s robe started to flutter despite no wind being present.

Then, the power of lightning started to appear on her body.

After walking a certain distance, ng Ruyan aid her palm at the horse-headed ghost.

She unleashed her divine ability, Lightning Palm!
