Who Brought Him into Chapter 216 - 184: Five Ghost Relocation Technique

Chapter 216: Chapter 184: Five Ghost Relocation Technique

The capture just happened here, and sothing’s already gone wrong with the Celestial Wave Crossing?

Mo Xingzhi’s face was extrely grim. Earlier, in order to capture Ma Zhou, not only did the Guardian Mansion go all out, but most of the Mo Family also set out.

Otherwise, with just my cousin and Han Yu going in, how could the Mo Family feel at ease?

After the two left, a dozen Mo Clan mbers were left under Mo Xingzhi’s lead to guard, yet unexpectedly, not long after, the stored materials encountered issues again.

Just like last night, after the materials inexplicably made a commotion and people gathered around, they directly disappeared without a trace.

A shadow appeared suddenly behind the curtain, and an indistinct magical artifact pierced through a hole, devastating the ship’s hull once again. The internal chanisms of the Celestial Wave Crossing were probably completely destroyed now.

"Where are they?"

My cousin hurriedly asked.

Mo Xingzhi shook his head. The opponent appeared and launched the sneak attack in the blink of an eye, and after devastating the hull, a black mist enveloped the person entirely, disappearing in an instant.

Black mist?

The group imdiately looked down at Ma Zhou, as if his thod was identical.

Noticing the crowd’s gaze, Ma Zhou quickly turned his head to avoid them.

"So, what happened?"

Ou Mingdong ca forward and asked sternly.

Ma Zhou remained silent, keeping his head down, like a mute at this mont.

My cousin got furious and kicked him hard in the chest. Following a miserable scream, Ma Zhou bent over, gritting his teeth.

"Damn, who was it that ssed with my materials?"

The opponent kept clenching his teeth without loosening up, looking at him with a slight mocking in his eyes, making my cousin want to strike again out of anger.

Ou Mingdong quickly intervened to stop him; they hadn’t even asked two questions yet, and they were about to beat him to death, then the clues would really be cut off.

"Your divine technique was injected as external power, not your own divine technique, right?"

Han Yu suddenly spoke from the side.

Ma Zhou looked at him with surprise, his expression changed, quickly becoming sowhat terrified.

Seeing his appearance, Han Yu felt a stir in his heart; indeed, he had guessed it right.

Not to ntion Ma Zhou was surprised; Han Yu was even more surprised. What kind of people were these? The ability to inject divine techniques into corpses was already a very terrifying thod.

He didn’t expect they could do it even with living people.

If the imagination of seeing the Earth Spirit exhibit divine techniques at the ti actually ca true, and if the opponent injected divine techniques into each of their people, wouldn’t every person under them beco a divine power user temporarily?

"You’re overthinking; it’s obvious it couldn’t be that simple to achieve,"

the Artifact Spirit within the Sea of Consciousness imdiately retorted.

If it truly were that way, divine power users would be as common as dirt.

Not to ntion, if the Corpse Refining Lineage could do that, overturning the entire Cultivator Realm wouldn’t be a problem.

Han Yu turned his thinking around and realized, indeed, if everyone could be imbued with divine techniques, the status of the Nine Sects would have been eradicated long ago.

Ou Mingdong proceeded to ask several questions, wishing to know the purpose, who was behind it, and even more, who the damn thing was that continuously damaged the ships.

Yet, Ma Zhou adamantly clenched his teeth, unwilling to utter a word.

"You must be thinking of keeping silent, hoping soone will rescue you? It’s impossible; surrounded by layers here, no one can save you."

Ou Mingdong, getting more furious, shouted angrily.

Ma Zhou’s expression suddenly changed dramatically, the effect of the Seven Emotions and Six Desires Pill abruptly erupted, his face changing rapidly, almost pulling all his facial features into a knot.

With distorted features, he looked at Han Yu, relying on his last bit of sanity, no longer able to control his emotions of joy, anger, sorrow, and delight.

"What exactly did you make

eat?"

"Seven Emotions and Six Desires Pill..."

Han Yu had just started speaking when he was interrupted; suddenly Ma Zhou cried out in anguish on the ground.

"That’s enough! Stop talking."

The group was taken aback, then saw Ma Zhou continuously tearing at his tattered clothes, muttering with strange cries, "It stinks."

Not to ntion, he viciously rubbed his burned, bloody chest.

"Ugly."

This person, has he gone mad?

My cousin leaned over, speaking with a complex expression, "Has he gone insane?"

Not insane, but the Seven Emotions had already erupted, and Ma Zhou was fully absorbed in the emotional shifts.

The six desires of sight, sound, sll, taste, touch, and law were infinitely magnified.

Right now, even lodies that weren’t pleasant sounded harsh to him, ugly bodies irked his vision, the burnt clothing stank unbearably...

"Then he’s ruined."

My cousin sighed deeply. How could such a person survive? Amplified desires to such an extent, where could possibly et his needs to survive?

Ou Mingdong suddenly reacted, imdiately ordering soone to bring a large bronze gong and instructed them to beat it loudly without any argunt.

As Ma Zhou was tearing his chest until the flesh and blood were dripping, he suddenly covered his ears and began to wail.

"Don’t stop, keep banging."

Ou Mingdong instructed the Palace Guard.

The sound of the gongs echoed throughout the Governnt Office. After a cup of tea’s ti, Ma Zhou was like a pile of mud, and beneath his crotch was a large puddle, slling fetidly.

"Stop banging, I’ll confess!"

Ma Zhou’s breath was weak, speaking feebly.

Then, with a frail voice, he slowly began to speak...

Although Ma Zhou has always been presented as a Loose Cultivator to the outside world, he is actually an Elder of the Zuyou Sect. Half a month ago, the Sect suddenly instructed him to find a Venerate.

The so-called Venerate is a secret only known to their group at the top. They control the entire operations of the Zuyou Sect.

He was directly taken by a mysterious figure wearing a horse-faced mask into a small building...

"And then?"

Ou Mingdong signaled with his eyes for the Palace Guard beside him to quickly take notes.

And then? Ma Zhou seed to have a mory loss about this part. The only mory he had was appearing in a grand hall, where the mysterious figure was also present.

He was told that from that day, he would be his stand-in and would no longer need to return to the Zuyou Sect.

"What about your Divine Techniques?"

Han Yu asked curiously.

"Sounds horrible..."

Ma Zhou wailed again, and Han Yu’s face darkened imdiately.

Darn it, when others ask you don’t say it sounds horrible, but when I speak, you find it unpleasant, don’t you?

Ma Zhou painfully covered his ears before he began to recount the subsequent events.

The Divine Techniques appeared after he woke up. The mysterious figure told him it was a ans of self-preservation and personally taught him how to use them.

The Five Ghosts Transporting Technique! It allows one to move an object five hundred ters away from its original place, and if necessary, to relocate oneself as well.

It was precisely due to this ability that he dared to act recklessly when surrounded; as long as he had ti to activate his Divine Techniques, he could keep teleporting out.

He was completely unaware of the events surrounding the destruction of the Celestial Wave Crossing. The instructions he received from the mysterious person five days ago were to enter White Emperor City and open a gambling den, for which he had already prepared everything.

Even the Jade Turtle was ticulously prepared by the other party.

Yesterday during the day, he received new instructions to use the Five Ghosts Transporting Technique to steal materials to a specific location, the first batch of stolen Cold Iron.

Later at night, another instruction was sent for him to go again.

"You all know what happened afterward."

Ou Mingdong’s face was somber. No wonder the materials couldn’t be found; it ant they were transferred by the people pulling the strings behind the scenes.

"How did the other party communicate with you?"

Perhaps it was possible to investigate from this angle, but unfortunately, Ma Zhou’s words directly blocked this route.

"He used the Five Ghosts Transporting Technique to send the letter to ."

"Is there any way for you to recall your mory after the small building?"

If so, it might help locate the Yellow Springs Mansion.

Unfortunately, no matter how Ma Zhou pondered afterward, he could never recall what happened after the small building.

"Sir, perhaps we should return to the Inspectorate to try."

The Palace Guard from the Inspectorate suggested, five towers over there, perhaps the Hundred Herbs Bureau might have a solution.

-----------------

"Sothing has happened over at White Emperor City."

Quan Xiaotong sighed, holding a secret letter in his hand.

"Aren’t you being too aggressive?"

Gao Feng, sitting beside him, shook his head slightly.

Originally he had already retired behind the scenes, but now with so much to handle, Quan Xiaotong could only shalessly ask him to return and lend a hand.

"You’re already overwheld with bringing about the Celestial Wave Crossing; so many State Prefectures need to be handled properly, it’s not right to bring out the Celestial Pride List so soon."

Gao Feng felt Quan Xiaotong was moving too fast.

Quan Xiaotong gave a bitter smile at this. It wasn’t that his steps were too large, but rather that the present timing was favorable, so he might as well do everything at once.

"The condition I set when I introduced the Celestial Pride List years ago was to stand firm first."

Gao Feng furrowed his brows, disapproving of this approach. Had aggressiveness been needed, he would’ve done so years ago, not waiting until now.

He earnestly advised, "The Fifth Tower wants to control the Cultivator Realm, its steps must be steady, no rushing."

At this point, a Cultivator from the Inspectorate hurried over with a secret letter and presented it.

The two opened the letter and read it carefully, their expressions growing solemn.

It’s the Corpse Refining Lineage again!

They’re practically lingering like specters; although they’ve captured soone, it seems he’s just a puppet.

The ntion of Ma Zhou’s lost mory is crucial; they both agreed that the missing mory between the small building and the grand hall might truly contain clues to Yellow Springs Mansion’s whereabouts.

"The person has already been sent out, and in a few days, we should receive him."

Quan Xiaotong spoke after reading the end of the letter.

"It seems Han Yu has helped you again this ti, and you still want to sell him out?"

Gao Feng showed so dissatisfaction with this point, as Quan Xiaotong was soone he had promoted, yet a certain bad habit hadn’t been eradicated since he started following him initially.

Quan Xiaotong always liked to weigh pros and cons in everything, to the point where it sounded unpleasant, like a rchant’s stubborn habit.

Regarding the Celestial Wave Crossing matter, he bargained ship by ship with the Mo Clan’s Sixth.

In the matter of the Ginseng King, although he helped the Guardian Bureau and the Inspectorate gain quite a few Guardians, his actions ultimately lacked grace.

He even sold out Han Yu, reaping only short-term gains, and ended up in the bad books of both sides.

"For soone as shrewd as you, why are you so clueless when it cos to handling relationships?"

Gao Feng sighed.

"Boss, I just need to ensure that things are a bit off during my tenure so that the next Tower Master may be comfortable in their position."

Quan Xiaotong, however, responded with a slow smile.
