Before Cao Bumu could figure out what was attacking him, he felt a chill run down his spine. He rolled over on the spot again, only to find that the magic weapon he had just hit—a few embroidery needles—had actually flashed past him from where he had just been, and then turned around instantly, with the tips of the needles pointing right at him.

Now that the Nine Lotus Cauldron, his nemesis, seems to have been severely damaged, he immediately summoned three more ghost generals without hesitation.

Hua Xiangyun smiled slightly as she saw the three ghost generals appear before her. "I've been waiting for you."

"Don't rush to act, wait for my command," Hua Xiangyun secretly instructed Jiulianding.

The Nine Lotus Cauldron hung limply to the side, but immediately assumed an attack stance upon seeing Ben Maojing sway slightly.

Ben Maojing held it still, but her eyes kept darting around.

Hua Xiangyun relentlessly attacked Cao Bumu with the Soul-Capturing Needles while simultaneously increasing her own defenses, preventing the ghost generals from getting close despite their repeated attacks.

Seeing that the stalemate was not going to work, Hua Xiangyun revealed an opening and was struck on the arm by a ghost general's claw, revealing the cotton wadding inside her thick cotton coat.

Cao Bu's eyes lit up; he felt his opportunity had arrived, and it seemed the other party had run out of tricks.

Driven by the three ghost generals to attack even more fiercely, Hua Xiangyun successively revealed several small openings and could only recall the Soul-Capturing Needle to fight against the ghost generals.

Ben Maojing glanced back at the courtyard and realized that the formation within a formation she had set up had given the other party a false impression. No wonder those two hadn't used their full strength when they were fighting you earlier; it seemed like they were always holding back. If you had used a trick to push them, they would still have been playing a tug-of-war with you.

Hua Xiangyun looked at the courtyard with a resigned expression. "Since he hasn't denied it yet, today you will make him atone for the hundreds of lives lost by your Benmao family with his death."

I dare not delay any longer, for fear that reinforcements will arrive by then.

Ancestors and descendants, you really are selling pots and pans. Our grudges were just personal, and you know we made mistakes and had family feuds, but you also have to make a living.

Ben Maojing laughed and said, "What do you mean by 'Four Dragons Returning to One Formation'? Is this the undergarment they wore when they were stealing?"

I've absorbed the Yin energy, but I should still be able to trap those giant jumping insects.

As the saying goes, those who do evil will live. The heinous crimes they have committed will also be punished. So what if they stole our country's fortune?

Cao Bumu realized that after so much time, the person hiding behind him had not appeared, and the troublesome cauldron seemed to have lost its function, only staring at Ben Maojing.

"Your Four Dragons Return to One Formation, was it broken by them?"

Upon hearing this, the wandering soul felt even more contempt. He thought that no matter the reason, he could tolerate the fact that they were selling out their own countrymen for a reward.

Even if he forced out a drop of blood from his heart, he could only sense that the ghost general had not perished.

"It's the same whether he tells you anything or not." As for the inferiors in front of us, let us think that way if we want to.

If I had followed the master of Ben Maojing to that other world, the rewards would have been several times greater than before. If I had known that such a bad thing hadn't happened, I would have made a contract with the cultivators after me. Is it because of the contract that those people benefit themselves?

What is destined to happen will happen, and what is destined to be retribution will be received.

Hua Xiangyun said, "Now you two are like defeated generals. Can you ask the servants in front of him to come out? There's nothing you don't understand."

It was already the dead of winter, and we had put on our thickest clothes for tonight's operation, but we still felt incredibly hot.

Silian Ding immediately assumed an attack stance against Caobumu. Just as Caobumu dodged, Silian Ding feinted and leaped directly behind Benmao Jing, taking these troublesome creatures into its central cauldron.

Thinking of that, Si Lian Ding smugly spun around in the air a few times, then realized that he had no talent for acting and had fooled those two idiots.

After being attacked by this old man, we were only allowed to leave after we got used to the filth.

Although I couldn't understand where those humans got such cunning ideas from, it was, after all, my master's order, and I had to obey it. Besides, I couldn't take the opportunity to retaliate, so I was happy to do it.

Thinking about what we're doing now, I feel a little uneasy. All I can do is keep bowing and apologizing, muttering nothing.

Hua Xiangyun disappeared in an instant when several ghost generals vanished, and she still didn't know that the plan had completely failed.

"Hurry up and knock it down, or we'll be out of there today!"

Even if the other party spares your life today, when you go back, you will face the prospect of atonement with your death.

Having witnessed his own trump card, Cao Shimu was naturally alarmed and quickly activated his secret technique, only to lose contact again, just like afterward.

They wanted to move around and stretch their bodies, but they felt as if they were weighed down by nothing. Both of them knew this, and they saw fear in each other's eyes.

As you fought and advanced, Cao Bumu became even more smug. Even if I had no more life-saving charms under me, I would still grab them.

They released the hidden cards they had been holding back, as well as another ghost general who wasn't even half a ghost king.

Tonight he lost seven ghost generals, but he managed to recruit that big girl and make her a new ghost general under his command.

Afterwards, the two special people guarding outside were also surrounded by a group of souls. When Duan Yanshan arrived, the two of us were in extreme fear.

I panicked. "Hua Xiangyun, is there nothing he can't use to subdue this cauldron?"

He had the ability to avenge his family and bring them fame, but instead he brought shame upon himself and retreated from the family.

Seeing the ghost general and half-ghost king trapped in the cauldron, the Four Lotus Cauldron really wanted to laugh out loud. With so little Yin energy, I couldn't even retain a small portion of it.

We also wanted to coordinate with those two big dates, but the compensation offered was too low, so we couldn't agree to it.

That half-ghost king was indeed very powerful; not one of them could withstand several of my ghost generals.

After restoring the small door to normal, he quickly headed towards the intersection behind it.

Seeing that the time was ripe, Ben Maojing urged the Four Lotus Cauldrons in her heart, "Put those trapped in his cauldron, and interrogate this filth again later."

Ben Maojing chuckled and tossed out an array plate with a flick of her wrist. Hua Xiangyun and Cao Bumu were instantly trapped in the array again, and the array plate spun back into Ben Maojing's palm.

It was at this moment that his master told him to turn the tables on him.

Ben Maojing was overjoyed to see everyone present. She had already sent them all over and was now leaving them there.

Li Ji felt the pressure beneath him increase, and frost appeared on the back of his hands. He cried out in his heart, "Leave now, please, everyone, let you go."

Our task was to keep watch outside, but as soon as we reached the street corner, it was as if our eyes were blinded, and we couldn't see anything.

The other party is a Xuan cultivator, and there is no difference between them and the ghost generals refined by those special people.

They worry that if the other party really does something wrong, you will be the first to stop them.
