Looking at the phantom of the mermaid on the palm of the woman in red, Xiao Chen nodded with satisfaction.
"Well done."
Xiao Chen was also a little surprised.
Unexpectedly, this woman in red created by him was much more capable than his most loyal subordinate Mao Fang.
The origin of the woman in red is also simple. First of all, her body is the body of the master in the previous life. Although she has no soul and is just a walking corpse, she still has the strength of a semi-immortal.
On that day, he and his fellow brothers conspired to kill their master, splitting his spirit into seven parts and leaving his body riddled with holes.
He first asked his second senior brother to heal the external injuries of his master's body, and then he selected a brand new soul from the reincarnation pool and injected it into his master's body.
After being resurrected, the woman in red had no memory at all, and her sea of consciousness was blank. Even her personality was shaped by Xiao Chen based on his master's personality, making her a replica that looked very much like his master.
However, a fake was just a fake after all, not the real master, and it did not cause any ripples in Xiao Chen's heart. He just regarded the woman in red as a tool to be used.
In the eyes of the woman in red, she and Xiao Chen are no longer master and disciple, but partners.
She helps Xiao Chen with his work, and Xiao Chen is responsible for helping her recover her past memories.
Of course, Xiao Chen had no intention of actually fulfilling the agreement. He was just waiting to use the woman in red before moving on to the next step...
"Okay, you can leave it to me now."
Xiao Chen raised his hand and wanted to take Leng Chaosheng's soul.
The woman in red subconsciously dodged and did not immediately return the item to Xiao Chen. Instead, she frowned and asked, "I've already got the item. When will you help me recover my memory?"
Xiao Chen suppressed his impatience and said, "Very soon."
"When is soon?"
"It will be very quick... Hurry and give the things to this emperor!"
As Xiao Chen finished speaking in a commanding tone, the woman in red felt no resistance at all and subconsciously handed Leng Chaosheng's soul back to Xiao Chen.
"Okay, you can go out." Xiao Chen continued to give orders.
Although the woman in red was reluctant, she left the hall uncontrollably. Even after she was completely out, she still didn't understand what had happened...
After the woman in red disappeared from his sight, Xiao Chen raised his hand and waved, awakening Leng Chaosheng's weak soul that was in deep sleep.
"Sixth Brother, how are you?"
Xiao Chen sneered and greeted him in a sarcastic tone.
"...Seventh Junior Brother? Why are you here?"
Leng Chaosheng had just asked when he subconsciously looked around. After seeing the eerie architectural structures around him, he became even more puzzled and asked, "No, this isn't the Demon Realm nor the Baiqian Spirit Realm. It seems to be the Netherworld Ghost Realm... But why am I here in the Netherworld Ghost Realm?"
Xiao Chen raised a smile at the corner of his lips and answered kindly: "Of course you are dead."
"Dead?" Leng Chaosheng gradually remembered what happened before, and said with a melancholy smile: "Yes, without the Mermaid Pearl, this king is doomed to die."
"But... my soul is stored in the Mermaid Pearl, which I gave to Master a long time ago. Why is it in your hands?"
Realizing this, Leng Chaosheng looked at Xiao Chen angrily and said, "Hurry up and return me to my master!"
The reason why he wanted to give the Mermaid Pearl to his master was so that he could be with his master even if he was no longer around in the future. However, Xiao Chen rejected his idea. How could he bear this?
Xiao Chen stood still, looking at Leng Chaosheng with a smile, "Sixth Brother, I will naturally accompany Master. Master will come to see me soon."
Leng Chaosheng recalled the incident in which Xiao Chen had taken away his master's body from his previous life. A flash of realization flashed across his eyes, and he exclaimed in surprise, "...Seventh Junior Brother! Our master has finally been resurrected, and yet you still want to kill him again!"
"Sixth Senior Brother, how could you think of me like this?"
Xiao Chen scoffed and explained without a trace of sincerity, "I just want Master to become exactly like he was in his previous life. Besides, isn't this also your wish, Sixth Senior Brother?"
"I, I didn't!"
Leng Chao's face started to turn red with anger.
The heaven and earth can bear witness to my sincerity towards my master, no matter in the past life or this life, I will not tolerate any blasphemy from Xiao Chen!
Xiao Chen said fearlessly: "It doesn't matter whether it exists or not. You are already dead anyway. No matter how much you don't want to, it's too late now."
"No! I'm going to tell Master right away that you're plotting something bad towards her!"
Leng Chaosheng's soul immediately turned around and was about to fly away.
He has made a mistake once and cannot make it a second time.
This time, even if it means his soul is torn apart, he must tell his master the true identity of his seventh junior brother and let his master be wary of him!
Unexpectedly, before Leng Chaosheng could fly out of the hall, he was grabbed by Xiao Chen. His soul was unable to move and he could not escape Xiao Chen's control at all.
Xiao Chen tilted his head, his handsome features inexplicably taking on a sinister look. "Sixth Brother, how can you escape from this emperor's grasp? Become this emperor's tribute obediently."
"don't want!"
Leng Chaosheng screamed in shock. No matter how he struggled, he was still uncontrollably compressed by Xiao Chen's ghost energy and turned into a candy bean.
Unlike other senior brothers, the sugar beans transformed from Leng Chaosheng's soul are as beautiful as he is. The surface of the sugar beans is round and translucent, showing a beautiful azure color.
Xiao Chen decisively opened his mouth and swallowed it, then revealed a look of disgust, "... As expected of Sixth Senior Brother, the bitter seed, it is indeed salty."
After swallowing Leng Chaosheng's soul, Xiao Chen's aura instantly became much more condensed.
He wiped the corner of his mouth, and his pupils opened and closed. His sight seemed to pass through the hall and see the scene in the distance.
Xiao Chen raised his lips in an evil arc, and said with great satisfaction: "Master has finally come to the Netherworld Ghost Realm to look for me. It seems that I must make plans as soon as possible..."
——
The other side.
Seeing more and more ghost cultivators approaching them.
Bai Sitang huddled behind Jiang Deng, anxiously urging him, "Jiang Deng! Can't you tear space apart? Why are you still standing there? Hurry up and tear it apart!"
Jiang Deng's mouth twitched. "Do you think tearing space is that easy? This is just like teleportation. There is a cooldown period. I can only use the ability to tear space again after three days."
“…”
Bai Sitang's face fell, "Jiang Deng, can you do this?"
Jiang Deng sneered and suggested, "Don't just blame me. You use the teleportation talisman very well. Hurry up and get another one to take us back to Baiqian Spirit Realm."
