Chapter 574: Internal Conflict among Ghost Kings

The Ghost King's movement made quite a noise. Suddenly, the sky was covered with dark clouds and strong winds blew. The people guarding the camp saw a cloud of inky black smoke flying out from the entrance opened by the archaeological team. It was followed by a long trail of black smoke and various shrill ghost cries.

It was particularly frightening at night. Everyone in the camp got out of their tents. It took a full five minutes for the black fog at the entrance of the tomb to dissipate, and then everyone saw Wu Lianyi walking out calmly.

Lianyi came out only after all the ghosts had left. Then she waved her hand and shot a spiritual essence engraved with a formation at the entrance, completely sealing the entire cemetery to prevent the prince from hiding back in the tomb after being attacked.

Then she quickly made hand gestures, making a series of hand seals with every step she took. The spiritual essences buried when the locust tree was chopped down were activated one by one, and beams of light rose up, instantly forming a huge magic circle, which blocked the Ghost Prince who was about to run towards freedom.

The Ghost Prince rushed forward twice in defiance of the evil. Every time he touched the magic circle, a black smoke would rise from his body and his strength would be weakened a little.

"Wu Lianyi!"

The Ghost King finally revealed his terrifying face, opened his bloody mouth, turned around and flew towards Lianyi, wanting to swallow Lianyi into his stomach.

Everyone in the camp was almost jaw-dropping. They actually saw that horrifying existence. However, the next moment they had no time to watch the excitement of Master Wu, because the remaining little ghosts were attacking the magic circle of the camp. They seemed to see that the protected camp was a weak point.

"Master Wu, we have fulfilled our promise, why are you going back on your word?"

Chen Meiyu didn't want to take action, so she asked directly.

Because Lianyi ejected a jade talisman, it blocked the prince's tentative attack.

Lianyi looked at Chen Meiyu floating in the air, smiled faintly and said:

“I promised the prince that as long as he found a replacement, I would help him escape from the cemetery that trapped him, and I did it!

I promised my lady that I would keep Hong Ji trapped here, her soul torn apart, and she would never be able to compete with you for the prince, and I did it!

So, why did I go back on my word? "

Ripple asked, tilting her head.

Chen Meiyu didn't know what to say for a moment. The other party did promise to help them leave the cemetery, but he didn't say he would set them free. They took it for granted and fell for the other party's trick.

"You cunning Heavenly Master, you used me to trap Hong Ji in the cemetery and weaken our strength. Without a ghost king, it will be easier for you to deal with us! You deserve to die!"

The Ghost King roared, trailing a long trail of black smoke, and attacked Lianyi again.

"Your Majesty, you are wrong. I am only dealing with you. Your wife and you are not on the same page."

Lianyi cast two lightening talismans on herself, and the moment her toes touched the ground, she was ten meters off the ground, and she gracefully avoided the attack of the Ghost King. This time, a jade talisman popped out, forcing back the Ghost King's attack and restoring him to his original appearance.

"What do you mean?"

After hearing Lianyi's words, the Ghost Prince looked at his wife who had been floating in the air and did not help him in the attack. His face turned purple in an instant and he looked at Lianyi fiercely, wanting to know the answer.

"My Lord, you and your wife have been trapped here for nearly a thousand years, and you still have a concubine and a beauty for a change. Madam Chen is probably about to vomit when she sees your old face, but because this is your territory, she has to endure it.

If you hadn't favored Hong Ji too much, maybe Madam would still help you out for the sake of your relationship, but it's a pity."

Lianyi continued to sow discord while waving her hand and scattering stacks of talismans to disperse the little ghosts rushing towards her.

Chen Meiyu raised her slender-shaped eyebrows. She didn't expect that the person who saw through her thoughts was actually a Taoist priest.

"Mrs. Chen, as long as you don't help him and are willing to enter my magic weapon, I promise to help you beat this idiot to pieces and then send you into reincarnation. How about that?"

Lianyi started to create division in front of the Ghost Prince.

“You dare!”

The Ghost King, with his bloody mouth exposed, turned to threaten Chen Meiyu.

Lianyi just wanted to write a big "stupid" on the other person's forehead. She refused to give in at this time and even dared to threaten another ghost king. The most important thing to do now is to unite all forces and kill her as a heavenly master first. It can be seen at first glance that she is a fool who grew up in a patriarchal environment for a long time.

Chen Meiyu's face froze, then she smiled creepily and said:

"Master Wu is right. I am sick of looking at your face. It has been a thousand years. I can finally leave there. There is no need to give you face anymore."

As soon as she finished speaking, Chen Meiyu turned into a ball of black smoke and rushed towards the Ghost King. The two Ghost Kings started fighting in the formation. For a moment, sand and rocks flew everywhere, and the sky was dark.

When Lianyi saw that her provocation was successful, she flashed and entered the formation covering the camp.

"Master Wu Wu, you are so amazing!"

Professor Ma sighed sincerely.

The opponent nimbly dodged left and right in the air, avoiding the attacks while still having the strength to fight back. He instigated a quarrel between the two ghost kings with just a few words, which made him admire him very much. It was the first time he saw the Heavenly Master subdue ghosts in this way.

"The fight between ghost kings is not a good look. Their aftermath will break through the temporary protective formation I set up. Then those little ghosts will be able to tear you apart."

Lianyi said helplessly that now was not the time to worship her.

"Master Wu, what do you want us to do?"

Wu Siming reacted quickly and stood next to Lianyi with Fu Tianxing's team, who had recovered as normal.

"Take these and bury them along the camp, with each jade symbol one meter apart."

"yes!"

Wu Siming took a small bag of jade talismans and immediately took his men to carry out the mission.

"Master Wu, what can we do?"

The members of the archaeological team also asked this question, especially Feng Jiajia. Although she was still so scared that her legs were weak, she was still calm because she had her companions around her.

"Go back to the barracks, stick these talismans on the corresponding people's heads, and guard them."

This time, Lianyi handed over three pieces of talisman paper, which contained the souls of the three archaeologists who had lost one of their souls.

"How do you respond?"

Feng Jiajia asked as she looked at the three identical talismans in her hand.

"Use the talisman paper that glows when placed close to their foreheads."

"Yes, we'll go now."

Professor Ma and his archaeological team immediately entered the tent.

The entire camp was reinforced again, and the two ghost kings were temporarily separated. The ghost king and Chen Meiyu, who had transformed into human form, were both a little embarrassed. One had blood marks on his face, and the other had disheveled hair. It seemed that both of them were really angry.

Lian Yi raised the corners of her lips and said to Chen Meiyu:

"Madam, have you thought about it? Instead of accompanying him to death, it is better to reincarnate. In the next life, you will definitely meet a lover who treats you like a treasure.

By the way, let me tell you that the society nowadays is monogamous. A man can only stay with one woman for his whole life. If he doesn’t love her anymore, he can divorce her, but he cannot take a concubine.

"Okay, I'll trust you again!"

See you tomorrow~
