Chapter 852 One Person Is Enough

When Zhou Wen saw this scene, he knew that Charlie was in trouble.

The power of his book and cross was indeed quite powerful, but he didn't know that the mask itself was not the point, and destroying the mask was useless and might even put him in danger.

Sure enough, after a noise came from the demon tomb, grayish-white dust suddenly spewed out.

When Charlie saw the dust, his face changed slightly. The book and cross in his hands shone again. He wanted to repel the dust, but the dust was like smoke. When he repelled the smoke on this side, the smoke on the other side rolled up and sprayed on Charlie's face.

Everything happened so fast that even the Capet family didn't have time to stop it. By the time they reacted, the dust had already condensed into a mask on Charlie's face.

When the Capet people rushed up to help Charlie, the cross in Charlie's hand shone with shocking light and stabbed the two Capet people who wanted to help him.

The two men were caught off guard and were injured by Charlie. They fell to the ground made of magic stone and their bodies soon turned into magic stone. For a moment, everyone was horrified.

Charlie, who was controlled by the evil ghost mask, didn't care about anything else. He waved the book and cross in his hands and rushed towards the human on the stone platform.

Zhang Chunqiu suddenly attacked, and his sword slashed like a stream of light, instantly shattering the mask on Charlie's face, but without hurting Charlie's face. The exquisiteness of his swordsmanship was truly surprising.

But it was of no use. The broken mask quickly gathered together and turned into a mask covering Charlie's face again.

Everyone fought with Charlie, but it was difficult to hurt him. However, attacking the mask on his face was useless, which made everyone confused for a while.

In the end, Zhang Siyou cast a talisman and stuck it on the evil ghost's mask, making Charlie stand there motionless, but the mask could not be removed from his face.

The Capet family tried many ways but failed to get the mask off, so they had to ask Zhang Siyou for help.

Zhang Siyou said, "My mythical ghost-suppressing talisman can only suppress it, but there's no way to completely eliminate it. Moreover, this mask is very strange. Simply breaking it is useless. I'm powerless and can only think of other ways."

Zhou Wen had naturally expected this result. The evil ghost mask itself was not the point. No matter how powerful it was, it was impossible to kill it. The only way was to dig up the grave and destroy the human face pattern underneath.

The Zhang family members turned their gaze to Moses, naturally hoping that he could remove the mask. However, Moses shook his head and said, "If I had taken action from the beginning and completely destroyed the mask, there might still be a chance. Now the mask is on Charlie's face. My guardian is too powerful. Even if I could destroy the mask with one blow, Charlie would not be spared."

Both the Zhang family and the Capet family were caught in a dilemma. No one could get rid of the mask on Charlie's face without hurting him, but if the mask was not removed, the problem of the demon tomb could not be eliminated.

Zhang Chunqiu saw Zhou Wen standing nearby, watching all this happen with an unusually calm expression. Something in his mind moved, so he asked Zhou Wen, "Zhou Wen, do you have any way to get rid of the mask without hurting Charlie?"

When everyone was silent, they all looked at the two of them when they heard Zhang Chunqiu's question.

Zhou Wen replied: "Okay, but I still say that I don't have the same ability as Charlie and the others. If you want me to solve the problem, you must dig up the devil's tomb."

"It's already this time, and you're still talking nonsense. The mask has been lured out, so why are you still digging the devil's grave?" said the eldest uncle of the Zhang family.

As a conservative faction of the Zhang family, the last thing they wanted to do was to dig up the devil's tomb.

Zhou Wen was helpless as well. This was the result of information asymmetry. What seemed like common sense to him was a mysterious unknown force to the Zhang family. They were too afraid of the Demon Tomb, fearing that once it was opened, the Zhang family would be wiped out, so they strongly opposed it.

"Uncle, Zhou Wen is not a person who speaks without purpose. He must have his reasons for saying that." Zhang Chunqiu and Dugu Ge had witnessed Zhou Wen's strength outside the Forbidden City and knew that he had extraordinary abilities.

Moreover, everyone thought that Zhou Wen and Old Man Xia were trapped in the Forbidden City together, and no one saw him come out. But unexpectedly, he returned to Luoyang safely, while Old Man Xia disappeared. Zhang Chunqiu knew that he could not do such a thing.

"The facts are right in front of us, what else do we need to explain?" Uncle Zhang said coldly.

"Master, the influence of the Demonic Tomb on our Zhang family is becoming more and more serious. If it cannot be completely resolved, I am afraid that in a few years, even if our Zhang family has not suffered any disasters, it will be wiped out. Things have come to this point. Instead of waiting for death, it is better to let Zhou Wen give it a try. I believe he can solve the problem without alarming the demon. Master, please give him a chance, and also give my descendants of the Zhang family a chance." Zhang Chunqiu said while bowing in front of Zhang Siyou.

"Chunqiu, what are you doing? To remove the mask, there is no need to dig up the devil's tomb. We are helpless only because we are worried about Charlie's life or death..." Uncle Zhang was immediately furious.

"At this point, I don't think I can worry about so many things. If the Taoist priest is willing to let my guardian take action, I promise that I can destroy the mask, but I can't guarantee Charlie's life or death." Moses said on the side.

"Mexican...you dare..." The people in the Capet family glared at each other.

"Stop talking." After Zhang Siyou spoke, everyone quieted down and looked at him. Zhang Siyou still had the final say here.

"Zhou Wen, how confident are you?" Zhang Siyou looked at Zhang Chunqiu who was kneeling in front of him, then looked at Zhou Wen and asked.

"I was only 70% sure before, but now after seeing the power of this mask, I am 90% sure." Zhou Wen said.

"Is there anything you need?" Zhang Siyou asked again.

"No, one person is enough." Zhou Wen replied.

"Okay, let's get started. If you succeed, the Earth Beast Companion Egg will be yours." Zhang Siyou nodded.

"Master, the devil's tomb cannot be dug..." said Zhang's uncle anxiously.

"Brother, I have already made a decision on this matter. There is no need to say more." Zhang Siyou said calmly.

The eldest uncle of the Zhang family stamped his feet in anger: "Have you all forgotten the teachings of our ancestor Tianshi? Digging up the demon's tomb will be the demise of our Zhang family!"

"Zhou Wen, why don't you do it?" Zhang Chunqiu pretended not to hear his uncle's angry words, and stood up and pushed Zhou Wen.

Zhou Wen no longer had any scruples and directly summoned the Tyrant Behemoth. With a loud bang, the Tyrant Behemoth's majestic body landed in front of the Demon Tomb.

"Tyrant Behemoth... that's actually Zhou Wen's companion pet..." Except for the Zhang family who already knew about it, the other families were all greatly surprised.

After all, it is a powerful existence that ranked fourth in the last ranking. In fact, although Tyrant Behemoth ranked fourth, it has never lost.
