Chapter 396 Lake Monster
How could Qianshi let Ling Changge in?
His servants said that the first thing Ling Changge did when she arrived in the yard was to pull up the trees. It was not known whether she understood the formation. If she did, she would be able to tell at a glance that Wan's illness was caused by backlash, and she would be able to guess the reason why she was affected by the backlash with just a little thought.
Right now, we must not let this dead girl become suspicious.
"Yu'er, Mrs. Wan is ill. You'd better not go to see her. This matter has nothing to do with you."
Ling Changge smiled and said, "Is it irrelevant? If it's really unrelated, then the two of them came to my yard on purpose to make me unhappy and disgust me. Isn't that right?"
"Father," Qianhuaxi said hurriedly, "That's not the case."
Qianshi frowned, waved his arm, and a powerful force swept out, directly sweeping Qianhuaxi and Qian Ruoyun aside. The ghost guards who followed them were all seriously injured without exception.
Ling Changge looked at this scene, a smile appearing on the corner of his lips.
"So, are you relieved?"
Ling Changge pretended to be happy and nodded, saying, "That's about right." She looked at Qianshi and said, "The clan competition will be held in a few days. I should be qualified to participate!"
In addition to the Qian family, there are several other families in the ghost clan. The Qian family is the most powerful now, so Qianshi was elected as the leader of the ghost clan.
The clan competition is to select the strongest people from the younger generation of the entire ghost clan and send them to the underworld.
Each family sends three disciples. Although Qianshi is the patriarch of the ghost clan, the number of the Qian family is the same as that of other families, which is three.
If Qian Zhiyu had not come back, the three children born to Wan would be just the right number. However, plans cannot keep up with changes, and Qian Zhiyu unexpectedly came back at this critical juncture!
When Qian Huaxi and Qian Ruoyun heard her ask this, their expressions instantly became tense.
"Okay." Qianshi said in a deep voice: "Since you are back, you are naturally qualified to participate."
After getting the answer she wanted, Ling Changge withdrew her foot from the stairs and said with a smile, "In that case, I won't be coming out these few days. But it's best not to let anyone go looking for trouble with me. I have a bad temper, and I will never show mercy to those who are shameless and looking for death." She swept her eyes over the embarrassed Qian Huaxi and Qian Ruoyun, "What are you looking at? I'm talking about you! If you want to completely cut off the possibility of participating in the clan competition, then come on, and I'll peel off your skin and make you unable to even be a ghost."
Hearing her say this, the two men took a step back, with a look of deep fear on their faces.
Qianshi looked at her leaving back, a cold look flashing in his eyes.
"Father..."
"Get out!" Qianshi said angrily, "If you cause trouble for me again, don't blame me for being rude!" After he finished speaking, he turned around and went back into the house. The two people outside the door were so scared that their faces turned pale.
Ling Changge took a tour around the ghost domain. The place was not small, but there were not many ghosts left in the ghost domain, so it seemed a bit desolate.
Ling Changge's figure shuttled through the valley, and at this moment, Xiao Qiongqi's voice came into his mind.
"What a nice smell! What a nice smell!"
"What smells so good?"
"Southeast!" Xiao Qiongqi said excitedly, "There are delicious foods in the southeast!"
After a while, Ling Changge stopped.
As far as the eye can see is a lake.
Beside the lake, a bright red flower is quietly blooming.
This is……
"Higanbana."
The red spider lily cannot be used to make elixirs, but it is a great tonic for the ghost clan.
Ling Changge was just about to pick the red spider lily when suddenly, the originally calm lake surface began to ripple and two huge sharp corners appeared from the water.
In an instant, lightning and thunder flashed above the lake, and dark clouds rolled in. Ling Changge watched as the giant beast in the water gradually emerged. Its eyes, as big as lanterns, glowed with golden light, and its sharp fangs were as long as an adult's arm. Just looking at it was creepy.
At this time, all the ghosts looked towards where the thunderclouds gathered.
"This... this is where the giant beast is!"
"Hiss... Is that giant beast about to advance?"
Everyone saw the strange change in the sky, but no one dared to go forward to find out what was going on.
There are restrictions around the valley, and the giant beast in the lake is sealed in the restrictions. It was set up by the masters of the underworld, and the giant beast cannot break out of the restrictions. But if they enter the valley and are discovered by the giant beast, they will surely die.
Qianshi's heart was pounding.
The giant beast has been trapped here for hundreds of years. Why did a strange phenomenon suddenly appear from the sky at this time?
He originally wanted to go take a look in the valley, but before he could leave, at this moment, Wan, who was lying on the bed, slowly opened her eyes.
"Madam, you're awake." Qianshi hurriedly helped her up: "Are you feeling better?"
Wan nodded. "I'm fine." She held out her hand, the spiritual power in her palm flickering in and out. "It's just that I haven't been able to use my spiritual power lately."
"In that case, just rest in peace."
"Husband, the formation in the eldest lady's yard has been broken. Did the eldest lady know something?"
Mentioning Qian Zhiyu, Qianshi said coldly: "That evil creature, even if he has some guesses, what can he do?"
Wan's face was solemn: "If the young lady's spiritual power is strong, then this time when she enters the netherworld..."
"She won't live to see that day." A cold glint flashed in Qianshi's eyes. "She has the same constitution as her mother, making her the best vessel. Now that she has reached a high level of cultivation, if we don't extract it now, it might be too late."
"My husband, do you mean to extract her spiritual energy in the next two days?"
Qianshi nodded: "Yes, if nothing unexpected happens, it will be tonight." Qianshi took Madam Wan's hand and comforted her: "Don't worry, I will draw out her spiritual power and transfer it all into Jing'er's body. By then, Jing'er's cultivation will be the highest. When he enters the Netherworld, he will definitely become the Ghost King's right-hand man!"
"Thank you, husband, for planning for Jing'er."
"Jing'er is my child too. If he can gain a foothold in the Netherworld, it will be a hundred times more beneficial to our Qian family than anything else." Qianshi lowered his voice and said, "A few days ago, you said that the head of Qingshui Pavilion would be coming soon. Why hasn't he made any move yet?"
"Don't worry, my husband. The Pavilion Master is busy, so it's normal for him to be delayed. Don't worry, he won't fail to fulfill our previous agreement. Otherwise, he won't see my senior sister again." A trace of resentment flashed across Madam Wan's face. "He has put so much effort into my senior sister! This time, we only asked him for a few disciples from the Qingshui Pavilion. They are not precious treasures."
Qianshi nodded: "Thanks to Madam, I can always have fresh spiritual power and blood to consume." He held Madam Wan in his arms, without noticing the vicious look flashing in the eyes of the person in his arms.
