Chapter 929: Chapter 929: Pursuing the Dongying Ghost Envoy! Chapter 929: Chapter 929: Pursuing the Dongying Ghost Envoy! A bitter chill of a yin wind burst forth from the huge eyeball!
Strands of fierce and malevolent Qi wrapped out from the eyeball like a spiderweb, clustering into a dense mass that seed intent on completely entangling Huang Xiaolong.
Further still, the vengeful and hateful intentions within the eyeball were enough to freeze one’s marrow in terror!
“Oh? The Hundred-Eyes Ghost has this trick up its sleeve? Combining all its eyeballs into one giant eye… Haha~It’s just like a Transforr~~This is interesting… It’s said that quite a few Hundred-Eyes Ghosts have co to our Huaxia, then next ti I’ll have to catch a few and study them well.” Huang Xiaolong grinned, his body erupting with ten thousand rays of golden light. These lights transford into nurous talismans, layer upon layer, swirling around him like falling snowflakes.
The evil Qi and yin energy entangling from the large eye were effortlessly extinguished by the golden light talismans.
The next mont, the giant eyeball burst into fla, bubbling in the fire like blood plasma. The eyeball had turned into a fireball! Within this fireball, there was a twisted woman’s face, ferocious and terrible, grinding her teeth as if desperate to bite into Huang Xiaolong, to drink his blood, and tear his body into ten thousand pieces!
The blood-red fireball, like a teor racing across the sky, charged furiously towards Huang Xiaolong! Everything it passed withered and died, and even the air corroded into gaping black holes.
Huang Xiaolong looked unruffled, waving his right hand!
A sword light flashed!
This sword light not only carried an edge capable of slicing through all things but also bore a fiery ferocity that could incinerate anything!
This was the flying sword Huang Xiaolong had refined using the fiery sword treasure he had obtained from the Kunming secret realm!
Poof~~~~
The sword light flashed for just an instant.
The blood-red fireball suddenly hung still mid-air, motionless.
Soon after, the fireball extinguished, reverting back to a giant eyeball, now weeping tears. The tears were red, tears of blood.
The Hundred-Eyes Ghost was weeping blood!
The next second.
The eyeball split in two!
It turned out, Huang Xiaolong had just wielded the flying sword, splitting the eyeball in two with lightning speed.
The severed eyeball was wrapped in flas of unyielding ferocity, burning fiercely as blood and flesh splattered around, releasing an acrid, sickening stench.
The pitiful and wretched screams of the Hundred-Eyes Ghost echoed in the night sky, “We won’t let you off! The emissary of ghosts will kill you~! Other Hundred-Eyes Ghosts will also co to claim your life… You will not die a good death~~~ah~~!”
Before long, the eyeball had turned to ashes.
At that ti, the surging yin energy above the school finally began to dissipate, and the moon peeked out from the dark clouds, spilling gentle moonlight down below, while the sounds of insects ca from all directions.
“Master…master…is it…is it gone?” Principal Tian hurried over, looking at Huang Xiaolong with eyes that adored him like a deity.
“For now, your school is temporarily safe. This Hundred-Eyes Ghost has been slain by ; its soul is scattered and destroyed.” Huang Xiaolong gave a few instructions to Principal Tian, then left the school with Ma Chuxia and several Xuanxue Society Taoists.
In a five-star hotel in Changnan City. Inside a suite.
Huang Xiaolong and Ma Chuxia were seated on the living room sofa, with several Xuanxue Society Taoists standing by respectfully.
“Little Long, although the Hundred-Eyes Ghost has been eliminated, there’s…there’s trouble now,” Ma Chuxia’s complexion was filled with worry. “A large number of evil spirits, fierce ghosts, and even quite a few ghost emissaries from Dongying’s underworld have co to our Huaxia… It’s the rhythm of stirring up strife!”
“I reckon, in Changnan City, there’s an emissary from the Dongying underworld… My feeling can’t be wrong.” Huang Xiaolong pondered for a mont. “I need to find this Dongying underworld emissary before anything else.”
“Right, Little Long, this ti Dongying’s underworld has launched a large-scale incursion into our Huaxia, it’s likely that ordinary fierce ghosts from Dongying are not privy to the exact plans of their underworld, we must catch an emissary and interrogate them severely,” Ma Chuxia nodded in agreent.
“Heh~~To be peers with is interesting, truly interesting,” A hint of killing intent flitted across Huang Xiaolong’s eyes. “Alright, I’ll summon all the ghosts in Changnan City; let them help search! Even if I have to dig three feet into the ground, I must unearth that Dongying underworld emissary!”
Imdiately, Huang Xiaolong rushed out of the hotel, and on a grassy lawn outside, he set up an enormous ghost-summoning formation. Using a ghost-blindness spell, he shielded the area from all sides so that ordinary people couldn’t see what Huang Xiaolong was doing.
Having set up the ghost-summoning formation, Huang Xiaolong burned a few joss papers and chanted a complex spell.
Soon, one after another, the spirits and fierce ghosts floated over from all directions.
Huang Xiaolong watched these lost souls and fierce ghosts with an unconcerned nod.
These specters and fierce ghosts seed to sense the oppressive aura Huang Xiaolong willingly released, standing orderly on the lawn, not even daring to breathe too heavily, just like a group of obedient students.
Half an hour later, Huang Xiaolong had summoned thousands of ghosts, among which were not a few blue-clothed fierce ghosts and purple-clothed fierce ghosts of formidable ferocity.
“Listen up, everybody. I didn’t call you here today to finish you off… I’ve got sothing, and I want to ask you about it,” Huang Xiaolong said with a smile.
The specters and fierce ghosts wore bleak smiles on their faces, nodding repeatedly at Huang Xiaolong.
“Recently, a soul reaper has arrived in Changnan City. But don’t be scared, it’s not one of our Huaxia’s reapers, but from Dongying… Technically, they shouldn’t be able to manage you… Who has any leads?” Huang Xiaolong asked straightforwardly.
Ma Chuxia scanned the crowd of ghosts with her gaze.
Several Taoists from the taphysical Society, having never seen so many ghosts, were so scared that their legs trembled uncontrollably, and Huang Xiaolong’s abilities once again raised the ceiling of their awe for him.
The fierce ghosts looked at each other, faces all showing a hint of bewildernt.
Just as Huang Xiaolong was beginning to feel disappointed, an especially disgusting fierce ghost jumped out. “My lord, I know!”
“Hmm?” Huang Xiaolong turned his attention to that ghost.
That ghost’s body was entirely devoid of skin and hair, leaving nothing but bloody flesh, with each muscle fiber clearly visible, exuding the aura of a purple-clothed fierce ghost. It wore an ancient hat on its head, seeming to be an old ghost.
“Ah, you must be the Skin-peeling Ghost, right?” Huang Xiaolong said with a light smile.
“Yes, yes, my lord, this humble ghost was a man of the Ming dynasty, who committed cris and was sentenced to an extre punishnt. Oh dear, it was tragic—buried in the desert with only my head exposed. Then soone cut open a hole in my head and poured rcury into the wound…” The Skin-peeling Ghost rambled on endlessly. “By noon, when the sun was scorching and the sand was burning hot, I couldn’t bother with it anymore and whoosh, I jumped out of the sand, leaving my entire skin behind…”
“Oh, I know of this thod; skinning tends to be very clean and complete…” Huang Xiaolong nodded with understanding.
“Little Long! Can we stick to the matter at hand?” Ma Chuxia was speechless, “You’re actually discussing skinning with this old ghost. Isn’t it disgusting?”
“Miss, how could this be disgusting?” The Skin-peeling Ghost smiled at Ma Chuxia, showing a mouthful of bright white teeth, then turned to Huang Xiaolong. “My lord, I know of a village on the outskirts of Changnan City. Last night I was passing by there… I saw a strange fellow reaping souls. Clad in black, neither human nor ghost, he exuded an aura that frightened …”
“You’re a purple-clothed fierce ghost and a ferocious Skin-peeling Ghost, and you’re scared of that guy?” Huang Xiaolong said with a smile that wasn’t quite a smile.
“Scared, of course I’m scared,” said the Skin-peeling Ghost earnestly. “So I didn’t dare to look for long. I saw that fellow holding chains, slipping them around the villagers’ necks in a flash, and whoosh, he reaped their souls with such deft movents. Moreover, that guy was babbling incomprehensibly, not speaking our Huaxia language. Besides, isn’t soul reaping the favorite task of soul reapers?”
“Hahaha~~~~” Huang Xiaolong burst into furious laughter. “How audacious! The Dongying underworld’s reaper has the nerve to co to our Huaxia to capture souls! Alright, very well! If I let you leave alive this ti, I might as well quit what I’m doing!”
Huang Xiaolong was truly enraged!
Boom~~~~!
The oppressive aura of the sovereign Yin Emperor surged out!
Thousands of specters and fierce ghosts were terrified, their bodies quivering like chaff, imdiately kneeling on the ground, persistently kowtowing.
After asking a few more questions, the Skin-peeling Ghost provided him with the na and location of the village.
“No ti to delay, my little wife, let’s head over there right away,” Huang Xiaolong decided on the spot.
Hearing this, Ma Chuxia nodded firmly.
Imdiately, Huang Xiaolong’s gaze swept over the many specters and fierce ghosts on the ground. “Listen well!”
The fierce ghosts held their breath and concentrated intently, listening to Huang Xiaolong with extre focus, afraid to exhibit any attitude that might provoke Huang Xiaolong’s rciless slaughter, as by now, these ghosts fully understood Huang Xiaolong’s identity and dared not show the slightest disobedience.
This was one of the rare occasions where Huang Xiaolong revealed his divine aura in front of specters and fierce ghosts, and this ti, he was indeed fiercely angry!
The reapers from the Dongying underworld were causing chaos on his turf, which was a direct affront to Huang Xiaolong’s authority!
“Now, so Dongying fierce ghosts have co to our Huaxia to stir up trouble, here in Changnan City among other places. Listen well, all of you, search for them! If you find any ghosts from Dongying, devour them straight away! Got it? Anyone who kills a Dongying fierce ghost can co to for a reward. Understood?” Huang Xiaolong said indifferently.
Upon hearing this, all the specters and fierce ghosts present united in their hatred, each cursing fiercely, swearing to exterminate any ghost from Dongying.
“Alright, disperse,” Huang Xiaolong said with a wave of his hand, dismissing the ghosts.
“My little wife, let’s go find that death-courting Dongying underworld’s reaper~~~” Huang Xiaolong’s eyes blazed with murderous intent. “I hope he’s still in that village~~~”
