"Hahahahaha, turns out we are the turtles trapped in the jar!"
Chu Wenjun’s face reappeared on Lianzhao Mage, eerily staring at Xie Jiuxiao as he asked, word by word, "Did you kill my father just to lure out?"
Xie Jiuxiao replied coldly, "Duke Luu was dood, whether we were trying to find you or not, he couldn’t be saved, and neither can you!"
Dongfang Chenyuan raised an eyebrow, "I just didn’t expect, Chu Wenjun, that in order to escape pursuit, you detached your soul and possessed Lianzhao Mage. No wonder, under the watchful eyes of so many in the Great Chao Country, not a trace of you was found. You’re really willing to pay any price."
Chu Wenjun clenched his fists, speaking with hatred, "In the end, it still fell into your hands."
He felt very unwilling, extrely unwilling.
The ghostly aura emanating from him was incredibly dense.
Yu Nianzhao frowned, "Dongfang Chenyuan, are you blind? It’s not just as simple as detaching his soul. He’s devoured many souls and evil spirits himself, turning into an evil ghost. His flesh should already be rotting."
Chu Wenjun’s evil spirit, she still needed to collect it, and she had to do it before the body rotted!
"What? A living person eating evil spirits? Has he gone mad?"
Dongfang Chenyuan gasped, feeling his mind scrambled.
"It takes courage to reap more!"
Yu Nianzhao approached Lianzhao Mage, "But Chu Wenjun, I won’t give you another chance to escape. Since you’re so concerned about Chu Wenjia and Duke Luu, you, too, will disperse like them."
Yu Nianzhao summoned the Blade of Judgnt, advancing step by step.
Lianzhao Mage stared intently at the Blade of Judgnt in Yu Nianzhao’s hand, gritting his teeth as he shouted, "This is a magic artifact of the underworld, Yu Nianzhao, who are you really? Even in death, let die understanding it."
Yu Nianzhao furrowed her brows, "You recognize an artifact of the underworld?"
Lianzhao Mage said, "I’ve seen it before, Qingyun Taoist Temple also has a few artifacts brought out from the underworld. If you spare , I can take you and give you the artifacts."
He thought Yu Nianzhao had a fortuitous encounter like him and tried to bribe her.
"Give them to ?"
Yu Nianzhao chuckled lightly, "They are originally mine. Who gave these artifacts to you?"
"I... I don’t know!"
Lianzhao Mage no longer had his previous arrogance, saying dejectedly, "Those artifacts were given to long ago, when I was young and just starting out, facing an evil spirit alone. It was because of these artifacts that I was able to rise quickly and establish the Qingyun Taoist Temple. But... the world’s temptations are too many, in the face of human nature, they’re nothing."
"Where is the person who gave you the artifacts?"
Yu Nianzhao frowned, pressing further.
"He was a wanderer, I only know his na... Xin Kui, nothing else."
Xin Kui?
The na exploded in Yu Nianzhao’s ears. After searching for so long, she had finally heard of Xin Kui’s whereabouts, only for it to be cut off again.
"No wonder..."
No wonder the Qingyun Taoist Temple could profit repeatedly, it turned out Xin Kui had secretly helped them.
What on earth was he doing?
Taking advantage of Yu Nianzhao’s montary distraction, Chu Wenjun used all his strength to escape from Lianzhao Mage’s body, trying to flee in the chaos.
"Huawu, Liang Ziyu!"
Yu Nianzhao lazily called out.
Two mirror demons blocked Chu Wenjun’s path and trapped him inside a Mirror Barrier.
"Jiu!"
Yu Nianzhao softly called.
A black shadow gradually appeared from behind her.
Chu Wenjun was startled, his soul shivering.
"No, don’t eat !"
Terrified, Chu Wenjun tried to flee, pleading with Lianzhao Mage for help, "Mage, hurry and save , I don’t want to die!"
Lianzhao Mage, unable to save himself, had no ti to care for him, silently turning his head away.
"From the mont you began killing, from the mont you, a living person, started devouring souls, you were already dead."
Yu Nianzhao coldly pronounced, "Chu Wenjun, your cris are nurous; you know in your heart how many lives your hands have taken. Today, I judge you... to die without a grave!"
"Jiu, eat him."
[Yes, Master!]
Jiu bit down without hesitation, tearing at his soul.
Ah———
Chu Wenjun scread from his soul, receiving no one’s pity.
Until Jiu devoured the last shred of his soul, only then did Yu Nianzhao speak, "Lianzhao Mage, you’re next."
The Blade of Judgnt pierced Lianzhao Mage’s chest, flas roared, and with only one cry of pain, Lianzhao Mage was engulfed by fire.
"Another wicked soul!"
Yu Nianzhao, her expression unchanged, withdrew the dagger, sneering, "You’ve deceived innocent people, used evil spirits to kill them, extracted their souls to refine and nurture evil spirits. Your cris are unforgivable, you too can die."
Jiu’s head instinctively ca forward, swallowing Lianzhao Mage’s soul.
His body fell stiffly, eyes wide open.
"Dying with eyes open? Well, his endless ambition wasn’t satisfied."
Yu Nianzhao realized another matter, "Seems like I killed him too early, should’ve left him alive to make him cough up those things."
As for Xin Kui’s whereabouts, aside from leaving so magic artifacts with Lianzhao Mage, they should have had no further dealings.
"No matter, I’ll have the Dragon Shadow Guards raid Qingyun Taoist Temple and retrieve everything you need."
Xie Jiuxiao could tell at a glance what Yu Nianzhao was thinking.
"Good!"
The items certainly needed to be retrieved; they belonged to the underworld and must be returned to their rightful owner.
"Wuwuwu... What about our children? Now that you’ve killed Lianzhao Mage, who will save our children?"
The villagers cried, no longer caring about the outco. The urgent matter was to save their children.
"We’ve checked earlier, these children must’ve consud so talisman water and were also stained by little ghosts, causing their persistent high fever."
Dongfang Hong took out a talisman and stuck it on a nearby child’s forehead.
Soon, the child’s high fever subsided.
The child opened his eyes, bewilderedly calling out ’Mom’ and ’Dad’.
"Wuwuwu, my dear child, you’re finally awake, it’s so good."
The child’s mother cried tears of joy, embracing and kissing the child. Only after a while did she kneel and kowtow to Dongfang Hong and Yu Nianzhao.
"Rember, rumors are not to be believed."
Yu Nianzhao glanced at her. It was just a simple reminder, but the child’s mother cried, feeling guilty, "I believed slander, Miss Yu, I’m truly sorry, and thank you for your magnanimity."
