Wow——!
Jiang Deng did not hold back at all in this move, which came with great speed and force. The sharp sword energy directly cut Mao Fang in half, and his upper body immediately split apart and slid to the ground.
However, Jiang Deng did not show any joy on his face, but instead looked solemn.
Because there was such a big wound on Mao Fang's body, there was no bleeding, instead there was a pile of sticky black liquid!
Immediately afterwards, the black liquid flowed down from the wound and attached to the fallen half of Mao Fang's body, pulling his upper body back to its original position. The wound healed at a speed visible to the naked eye and returned to its original state.
Jiang Deng was stunned.
I didn't expect that my full-strength attack didn't cause any damage to Mao Fang. This is too strange...
"Ha ha!"
Mao Fang's face was filled with a perverse expression. He smirked and said, "Have you forgotten? I was born in the Netherworld, so I'm naturally a ghost cultivator. We ghost cultivators are not so easy to kill!"
Jiang Deng: “…”
It seems that if you want to be a ghost cultivator, not only your brain needs to be in poor condition, but your body also needs to be in poor condition.
Just as Jiang Deng was thinking about how to kill the ghost cultivator, Mao Fang said again: "Brothers, hurry up and kill them!"
"But... this woman is the master's favorite. Wouldn't it be inappropriate for us to kill her too?" A ghost cultivator asked.
Mao Fang sneered, "What's the big deal? At worst, I can just kill her and keep her soul. I can still cultivate the ghost path anyway!"
Upon hearing this, the eyes of the other ghost cultivators lit up.
yes!
What's the good of being a human? You might as well be a ghost with them!
By then, Jiang Deng, who has become a ghost cultivator, will not be tolerated by the righteous people and will have no choice but to accept their master!
If the master knew that they had accomplished such a great thing, he would not be angry but would reward them instead!
"receive!"
The next moment, under Mao Fang's command, a group of ghost cultivators immediately released the ghosts they had captured. For a moment, the ghosts in the field ran around and attacked Jiang Deng, Baili Chengfeng and three others.
Jiang Deng poured more chaotic power into the soul-summoning banner, but no matter how hard she waved it, she could not control so many ghosts.
"Could it be that the limit of ghosts that the spirit-summoning flag can control has been reached?"
Helplessly, Jiang Deng had to give up using the soul-summoning flag and landed next to Baili Chengfeng below.
Back to back, Jiang Deng attacked the ghosts coming towards him while communicating with Baili Chengfeng: "Let's join forces and kill these ghosts!"
"Okay, I'll do as you say."
Baili Chengfeng smiled and nodded.
He will try his best to meet all of Jiang Deng's requests.
After the cooperation of the Eight Gates Secret Realm and the Feiran Spiritual Palace, Jiang Deng was already very confident in Baili Chengfeng. At least when fighting the enemy with him, he didn't have to worry about being stabbed in the back.
With the idea that every extra helper would be welcome, Jiang Deng asked the boy beside him, "Well, what's your name?"
The young man said, "Xia Hou Nu," with great care for words.
“…”
Jiang Deng frowned. Is this also called a name?
As if seeing Jiang Deng's confusion, Xia Hou Nu explained, "I was originally a slave of the Xia Hou family. It was the eldest lady who saw that I had a good talent for cultivation, so she took me in as a servant and even gave me the surname of the master's family. The eldest lady is my heaven, my earth, and the only one in my life."
Originally, Xia Hou Nu would speak as little as possible, until he mentioned the so-called eldest lady, then he started to talk more. Not only that, even his lifeless eyes began to sparkle.
Jiang Deng's mouth twitched, "...What is the relationship between Xiahou Qingyu and your eldest daughter?"
Xia Hou Nu immediately shouted angrily, "What is your relationship with the young lady? How dare you address her by her name?"
Jiang Deng immediately understood.
It turns out that the eldest lady that Xiahou Nu mentioned is Xiahou Qingyu. Not to mention, saving slaves seems like something that Xiahou Qingyu, who looks cold but has a warm heart, can do.
"Oh, Xiahou Qingyu and I don't have a very close relationship. We just cracked melon seeds together. To help me, she threatened her own nephew and even killed someone for me. That's all."
“!!!”
Upon hearing this, Xiahou Nu widened his eyes in disbelief.
The eldest lady, who has always been aloof and aloof, not only fell out with her beloved young master for the sake of the man in front of her, but she was even willing to have her sword stained with blood, which she regarded as unclean, in order to help this man!
Is this not a close relationship?
As expected of the eldest lady’s friend, he is as humble as she is.
Thinking of this, Xia Hou Nu immediately became well-behaved and said respectfully: "Since you are the young lady's friend, you are my master. May I ask what your orders are?"
Jiang Deng looked at Xia Hou Nu and said, "Tsk, you don't seem to have any sword spirit at all. Aren't you a sword cultivator?"
Xia Hou Nu said embarrassedly: "I have just started practicing swordsmanship. I haven't yet comprehended any sword meaning, nor do I know any sword techniques. I am currently only practicing physical cultivation."
“…Alright.”
Jiang Deng immediately understood.
No wonder there was another person coming in besides Baili Chengfeng. It was probably because he had no sword intent, so he was assigned here.
"Then wait a moment, just protect yourself and don't hold us back."
"Yes, sir."
After arranging Xia Hou Nu, Jiang Deng chopped down the endless stream of ghosts while looking sideways at Baili Chengfeng behind him. "Can you still use that spell that can immobilize people?"
Baili Chengfeng blinked his eyes, his voice as clear as a spring in a snowy mountain, "Sure."
"Okay, then you find a chance to freeze them, and I'll take the opportunity to set fire and try to burn this ghost cultivator called Caofang into ashes!" Jiang Deng said with high morale.
"Okay, I'll do as you say."
Baili Chengfeng seemed to be affected by Jiang Deng's mood. The corners of his lips rose slightly, and a happy smile appeared on his face.
Then, he suddenly realized something, and the smile on his face froze, "Um...how did you know that this ghost cultivator was called Mao Fang?"
"Didn't you say before that his name was Mao Fang..."
Having said that, Jiang Deng subconsciously stopped talking and his eyes widened slightly.
Wait, did she reveal something?
Baili Chengfeng blushed and muttered softly, "Sure enough, you still heard it?"
He said that he liked Jiang Deng after Xiahou Nu revealed Mao Fang's identity.
If Jiang Deng heard the words about Mao Fang's name, doesn't that mean she also heard it, and then she said that she liked Jiang Deng?
He had originally wanted to sincerely express his feelings to Jiang Deng, but he hadn't expected his feelings to be revealed so suddenly...
His eyes lit up instantly!
Baili Chengfeng stared at Jiang Deng, waiting for her response with great anticipation.
"Um...Jiang Deng, after hearing what I said before, do you have anything to say?"
