The Rebirth of the Cultivation Leader Qin Zhao as a Celebrity Chapter 419 - 417: Miss Qin, Where is Your Husband?

The Changyuan Sword emitted a buzzing sound, its golden slaughter sword energy enveloping the dark heavens and earth. The ghosts that sprung from the ground were instantly scattered by the sword energy.

"So badass, huh?"

Qin Zhao hadn’t even made a move yet, but the Changyuan Sword had already severely wounded the Ghost King.

No wonder her master had given her a Divine Artifact—the power was freaking explosive.

Swoosh, swoosh, swoosh.

Excited by such a formidable Evil Object, the Changyuan Sword lunged out and wildly hacked at the Ghost King.

"He’s no match for the Changyuan Sword, let’s check out the cave."

There was a cave in the valley where the Ghost King had been hiding.

Nan Xian slled a strong, nauseating scent of blood coming from inside and thought there must be sothing wrong inside.

The Changyuan Sword had split half of the mountain open, but so of the Ghost King’s power had protected the cave, so it hadn’t collapsed during the fight.

The three of them entered the cave, and the stench of blood almost made them throw up.

Qin Zhao set up a transparent barrier beside them, blocking the foul sll.

"So many bones, probably not just from the people of Xianghe Village."

They saw in the cave a mountain made of white bones, with a pool of blood at its base. A strange and ominous aura swirled around the mountain of bones.

Approaching the mountain of bones, Qin Zhao noticed that there were many things floating in the blood pool.

"What’s in there?"

"Seems like they’re hearts."

"Human hearts?"

Shangguan Qiu and Nan Xian looked oddly at each other.

"The Ghost King must have consud the flesh and souls of mortals, but why did he leave their hearts behind?"

Shangguan Qiu couldn’t help but recall the two ghosts he saw this morning, with bloody holes in their chests.

"Be careful here, I’ll go catch that Ghost King and ask."

Qin Zhao turned and left the cave.

The Changyuan Sword was still chasing the Ghost King, whose energy was greatly weakened by the Changyuan Sword.

Qin Zhao used the Binding Spirit Technique to tightly bind the Ghost King.

This Ghost King, bearing a resemblance to humans, had a solid soul.

At first glance, ordinary people probably couldn’t tell he was a ghost.

His body was covered in wounds inflicted by the Changyuan Sword, but there was no bleeding, with intense ghost energy seeping from the wounds.

"Let go!"

His venomous gaze fell upon Qin Zhao.

Qin Zhao casually perford the Lightning Summoning Technique, baking him to a crisp, reducing his soul power even further than before.

Now the Ghost King was being compliant, shivering and shrinking to one side.

"How many people have you killed?"

"Those people, they were dying anyway!"

The Ghost King’s eyes shifted, cunningly speaking, "They were AIDS patients, with no money for dicine—they couldn’t be cured! They were in agony and begged to give them relief."

"Don’t think I don’t know what you’re up to!"

Qin Zhao scoffed, "Besides the people from Xianghe Village, you’ve consud many others!"

"It wasn’t ! It was, it was soone else who brought them to !"

The Ghost King tried to shirk the responsibility with shifting eyes.

"Who brought them to you?"

Shangguan Qiu pressed for an answer.

"Why should I tell you? Unless you release !"

"Clueless about what’s coming for you!"

Qin Zhao had no interest in wasting words and placed her slender, pale fingers on the top of his head.

"I just need to use the Soul Searching Technique on you, and I can find out these things. If you don’t want to turn into an idiot ghost, you’d better confess honestly and not test my patience!"

The pressure from her fingertips made the Ghost King tremble in fear.

Beside him, there was also a Divine Sword watching him.

"I’ll talk! I’ll tell you!"

He gritted his teeth before finally revealing the truth.

"I know a guy nad Ma Bin who sotis brings quite a few living people. Last ti he brought so, he also asked to kill everyone from Xianghe Village."

"Why did he want you to kill them all?"

"I don’t know."

The Ghost King curled his lips, "We ghosts prefer to eat strong people, not sickly weaklings. I wouldn’t bother eating them if he wasn’t the one who ca to ."

"Where did the living people he delivered to you co from?"

"I don’t know, I just wait here and eat."

"Why would you, a Ghost King living deep in the mountains, have any contact with Ma Bin?"

At this question, the Ghost King’s expression turned strange.

"He’s the one who sought out for a partnership. He brings living people, and I do things for him."

"How did he know you were here?"

"We stumbled upon each other, and he ca up with this arrangent to avoid being eaten by ."

Nan Xian stared at him for a while before saying to Qin Zhao, "Apprentice, I think he’s lying."

"If you’re not going to be honest, then you might as well be treated as a fool."

This ti, Qin Zhao unceremoniously searched his soul.

"How is it? Did you find out why?"

Nan Xian and Shangguan Qiu both looked at her curiously.

Qin Zhao frowned, "His mory starts from the mont he appeared here, and all his mories from before are gone. From what I can see, he had already been in contact with Ma Bin."

"How can this be? He doesn’t even rember how he died or how he beca the Ghost King?"

"Nothing, it’s as if soone wiped out his mory files."

Nan Xian’s face grew more solemn, realizing the situation was becoming more serious.

Even the Ghost King’s mories could be erased; whoever was behind this must have higher cultivation than Qin Zhao.

"What are all these hearts for?"

Shangguan Qiu asked again.

"It seems they are ant for soone specific. Aside from the living people brought by Ma Bin, he would go out and catch people to eat himself but would leave the hearts behind. When Ma Bin ca, he would take the hearts with him."

"Ma Bin was testing dicines on nearby villagers, probably to deliver to the Ghost King. I’ve also asked around in the village, and it used to have many vagrants and bachelors, but their presence has recently vanished.

So of the villagers said they found work outside and left to earn money."

"It’s very likely that these missing people were delivered to the Ghost King."

Qin Zhao used the Yin Summoning Spell to call forth an Underworld Yin Officer.

"This ti we’ve caught a Ghost King."

The Netherworld Envoy was startled upon seeing the bundled-up ghost.

"This thing is the Ghost King?"

The envoy was shocked for a mont and quickly called his superior. He didn’t have the authority to deal with a Ghost King, and if it escaped on the way back to the underworld, what then?

"Boss, that... Miss Qin has caught a Ghost King."

Upon hearing the three words "Miss Qin," Black Impermanence imdiately shuddered.

"I’m on my way!"

In probably a few seconds, Black Impermanence appeared before them.

"Miss Qin."

Black Impermanence rubbed his hands together, smiling broadly at Qin Zhao.

"Apprentice, stay away from him."

Nan Xian pulled his apprentice away, thinking to himself why this guy was smiling so sleazily.

He couldn’t be a fake Netherworld Envoy, could he?

Black Impermanence gave him a glance and then looked around Qin Zhao.

"Miss Qin, where’s your husband?"

"What for?"

Qin Zhao looked at him with confusion.

"Oh, nothing, just found it odd that you weren’t with him."

"He’s at ho, what do you want?"

Qin Zhao appeared guarded. Surely Black Impermanence wasn’t thinking of taking Chu Yan’s soul to the underworld?
