The desolate tree hole is full of farces 2
Something must have happened to cause this hatred, Huaiwen thought. If he wanted to get rid of the cat demon, he couldn't escape the relationship between the priest, Fengqinshan, and her.
Huaiwen's swordsmanship forced the demon cat to lose its strength. The cat demon's eyes changed, and it manipulated all the corpses to climb up from the spruce wood, jump down, and pounce on Huaiwen and the others with bared teeth and claws.
Huaiwen and the others dodged, but only dodged, not killed. The cat demon looked down at them, resentment rising in her heart, and she sneered.
She first manipulated Canglun and Shi Yulu, turning them into puppets. She then raised her weapon and swung it at Rongyun and Huaiwen, who could only dodge and dared not get hurt.
Shi Yuluo and Cang Lun are not dead; they are seriously injured and temporarily unconscious. If they were to attack now, it could very well be fatal.
Huaiwen and Rongyun could only deal with the controlled Shi Yuluo and Canglun.
Just as Huaiwen was about to subdue Shi Yuluo and Canglun, the cat demon suddenly rushed over, forcing her to dodge. Unexpectedly, the cat demon seized Canglun's sword and stabbed at Rongyun.
Just as Rong Yun was about to be struck in a vital spot by the cat demon, Xuan Ye was even faster. His blade was so fast that it cleaved the Canglun sword in two, then circled back and struck the cat demon. A few moments later, the cat demon let out a miserable cry, and a wisp of soul rushed out of the cat demon's body and quickly attached itself to Shi Yuluo.
The group was stunned; the cat demon was actually possessed!
But Huaiwen wasn't allowed to think too much at the moment. The possessed Shi Yulu raised the glass umbrella in her hand and started beating Huaiwen.
Gradually, Huaiwen figured it out!
Huaiwen was very familiar with this sword technique; it was something that all the disciples of the Fengqin Mountain Immortal Sect would learn.
A look of surprise crossed her face. She had never heard of any disciples turning into demons or ghosts at Fengqin Mountain. If that wisp of soul belonged to a disciple of Fengqin Mountain, then things changed.
"Who...are you?" Huaiwen asked.
"Ask me," Shi Yuluo, now possessed, smirked. "If you can beat them, I'll tell you."
With that in mind, Huaiwen gripped the Mingjing Sword, showing no mercy. Sword in hand, his movements were swift and methodical, his momentum intricate and powerful, aiming for a fatal blow.
With the sword hanging in the air, Shi Yulu, who was behind her, had a solemn expression. Her face was dark, her eyes were sharp, and her voice sounded somewhat harsh: "You are a disciple of Fulin."
Huaiwen paused for a moment, then did not answer.
A mocking laugh rang out. Huaiwen took a step back, and Xuanye, standing behind her, asked again to confirm, "Is it true?"
Huaiwen turned to look at him, his eyes sharp as he nodded: "Yes."
The injured Rong Yun stood frozen in place. Xuan Ye's face showed a hint of coldness and surprise. The faint, mournful laughter of that wisp of soul was still echoing, but she swiftly raised her glass fan and thrust it forward.
Huaiwen took a step back, but was suddenly attacked by the cat demon that had just woken up behind him. Fortunately, Huaiwen reacted quickly and slashed with his sword, wounding the cat demon.
After possessing Huaiwen, Shi Yuluo gave him no chance to breathe. She used her glass umbrella as a sword, step by step, forcing Huaiwen back. However, she did not expect Huaiwen to break free and launch a counterattack.
Despite being at a disadvantage, Shi Yulu, now possessed, regained control of the cat demon and Canglun to attack Rong Yun and Xuan Ye. She then opened her glass umbrella, unleashing waves of dazzling attacks.
Huaiwen cleaved the air with his sword, but then saw the possessed Shi Yulu throw Rong Yun, who was swinging his leg, at him. He changed his stance and caught him steadily. Taking advantage of this opportunity, the possessed Shi Yulu broke through the roof and flew out.
Huaiwen put Rongyun down and chased after her, with Xuanye following behind. Once outside, they saw her capture Mo Heng and Oni-slayer.
With a knife to their necks, Mo Heng and Oni-slayer cried for help. Huai Wen stopped, and Xuan Ye stopped as well.
The possessed geomancer Yu Luo sneered in mid-air: "He actually taught you this sword technique, but do you know? Everyone who has learned this sword technique is dead."
Huaiwen tilted his head back and asked, "Who are you?"
"who I am."
Laughter rang out again, and the possessed Shi Yuluo laughed seductively, saying, "I am your master's wife."
Huaiwen stood there, stunned. Xuan Ye raised an eyebrow, looking at Huaiwen meaningfully. He called out, "What are you standing there for? Just because she says so, does that mean it is?"
Upon hearing this, Huaiwen turned around and looked at Xuan Ye, then at Shi Yulu in front of her. She frowned and replied to Xuan Ye, "I just didn't expect this matter to be related to Fengqin Mountain."
Xuan Ye chuckled: "There are many things in the God Realm that are beyond your expectations."
“He’s right. There are many things in the God Realm that you don’t know.” The possessed Shi Yulu laughed crisply and seductively. “For example, it’s true that I want to kill you.”
Huaiwen glanced at her and asked why she wanted to kill her.
The possessed Shi Yu suddenly burst into laughter. She descended from the sky with Mo Heng and Onikiri, stroking Mo Heng's face with her fingertips and blowing on it: "Fair skin and cute, it's so lovable. But I... hate people like you the most."
Mo Heng shrank his neck: "Shi Yuluo, what's wrong with you?"
"What did I do? I want to kill you."
Tears welled in Mo Heng's eyes as he cried out for Shi Yuluo not to kill him. Huaiwen had no choice but to tell Mo Heng that it wasn't the real Shi Yuluo; this Shi Yuluo was possessed.
Unexpectedly, the possessed Shi Yulu lightly touched Mo Heng's chin, blinked, and absorbed Mo Heng's life force. Mo Heng struggled, and Huaiwen swung his sword to separate the two, launching a series of attacks that forced back the possessed Shi Yulu, saving Mo Heng and Onikiri.
However, that wisp of soul was too powerful, and it possessed Shi Yuluo's body, so Huaiwen couldn't pierce her heart with a single sword strike. She used her sword to cast a spell, chanting incantations, and millions of incantation characters enveloped the possessed Shi Yuluo. As Huaiwen finished her command, the millions of incantation characters, under pressure, struck her with a single blow.
That wisp of soul was extracted from Shi Yuluo's body.
Huaiwen swiftly threw the sword over, slicing it to the tail of the soul. With a scream, the soul revealed its true form in the black mist.
She was a woman, a stunningly beautiful woman whom Huaiwen had never seen before.
Her clothes were torn, clearly indicating she had fought before her death. She was kneeling on the ground, her body slightly hunched over. Huaiwen clearly saw that a red spider lily was embroidered on her ankle.
Normally, Huaiwen would have killed that woman long ago. But since she was probably involved with Fengqin Mountain, Huaiwen kept her alive.
Just as Huaiwen was about to bind her with the magic rope, he saw the woman turn around and look at him pitifully: "I am your master's wife, and this is how you treat me?"
These words were so moving that Huaiwen couldn't bear to pity them and finally said, "Come back with me, explain the situation clearly, and give everyone the truth."
The woman shed two beautiful tears: "Your master betrayed me, yet you tell me to go back and find the heartless man?"
"If that's the case, shouldn't you go find my master and ask him for clarification?"
The woman hesitated for a long time, then reluctantly covered her face and wept. Huaiwen, seeing that she was probably somewhat sympathetic to the woman's betrayal by the unfaithful man, unconsciously slowed his movements. However, he still harbored doubts and a sense of deception about her words.
Her master was not that kind of person.
Huaiwen glanced back at Xuan Ye, who remained silent, which Huaiwen took as a matter of personal concern. He then turned and walked over, squatted down, and gently extended his hand, saying, "Since you know the immortal arts of Fengqin Mountain, you must have stayed there. If you are my senior sister, I will give you justice and give my master justice."
As dusk fell, the sunset painted the sky with vibrant colors, and the woman's tears were clearly visible. After hesitating for a moment, she reached out and took Huaiwen's hand, and the two slowly rose to their feet.
The wind blew across their bodies, their clothes fluttering. In an instant, Huaiwen felt a powerful electric current surge through her body as she grasped the woman's hand.
"Your bad luck has come."
The words were spoken softly, yet they truly reached Huaiwen's ears. In an instant, Huaiwen's grip on the woman's hand was released, and she, temporarily blinded, slowly collapsed.
In the blink of an eye, Xuan Ye caught her steadily. The woman leaped forward, intending to deliver another blow, but the formation was disrupted by the blade Xuan Ye had thrown. She tried to attack Huai Wen again, but Xuan Ye had her cut down without any way out.
Xuan Ye didn't care whether she was from Fengqin Mountain or not; he only wanted to kill her.
A rumble—a beam of white light shot in from the horizon.
The woman shouted, "Under the heavens, you are all doomed!"
The white light descended, revealing Zhenli and two other priests.
The three rushed forward; one helped Mo Heng up, another helped the awakened Shi Yulu up, and the third went inside to find Cang Lun.
Huaiwen leaned against Xuanye's chest, calming her dizziness, and let out a long sigh. After a while, Onikiri was the first to rush over and surround Huaiwen, afraid that something might happen to her.
Zhenli and the others followed closely behind, inquiring about Huaiwen's condition with concern. Huaiwen indicated to them that he was fine, and then slowly stood up from Xuanye's arms.
Xuan Ye didn't let her wander too far, staying close behind her. His expression wasn't friendly as he looked at the group. The officials, seeing Xuan Ye's displeased expression, didn't dare look at him too closely. His gaze was truly malicious.
"Lady Zhenli, the culprit in this matter is not the cat demon. She was merely possessed by a ghost, and what she did was not her intention. Please do not punish her harshly," Huaiwen advised Zhenli.
Zhenli glanced at Shi Yuluo and the others, and seeing that they nodded in agreement with Huaiwen, she said, "I will investigate this matter thoroughly, so you don't need to worry. However... Rongyun just told me that you are a disciple of Fengqin Mountain."
Huaiwen nodded.
"That...this ghost..."
Huaiwen shook his head: "I have no idea. But does Lady Zhenli know something if she asks this?"
The three priests exchanged glances, hesitant to speak. They had heard from the long-deceased priests that this female ghost was related to Fengqin Mountain, but they knew no further details.
Moreover, many people in the divine realm are unaware of this matter. Although the Heavenly Emperor didn't explicitly say so, he subtly instructed everyone not to discuss it. Furthermore, since Huaiwen, as a disciple of Fengqin Mountain, is unaware of this, it must be because someone from Fengqin Mountain is preventing her from knowing.
Since they don't know the specifics and can't explain the details, it's best not to say anything in the end.
Finally, Zhenli calmly told Huaiwen that the ghost was that of a demoted priest who had turned into a spirit after death out of resentment. They had eliminated some ghosts of this type before, but this one was far more powerful than any they had ever seen before.
He didn't want Huaiwen to have to deal with these demons and monsters again, risking his life.
Huaiwen nodded thoughtfully and asked, "So, after they go back, they'll be considered to have passed the test?"
Zhen Li was taken aback, and only after Shi Yuluo's prompting did he understand what Huai Wen was talking about. He couldn't help but sigh, how could someone from Fengqin Mountain not know that they were priests?
"Don't worry, I've already calculated it."
Huaiwen smiled and probed, "So, regarding this ghost, are you going to Fengqin Mountain to investigate it next?"
Zhen Li remained silent for a moment before replying, "I will decide on this matter after I return and report back."
A few coughs drew everyone's attention, and they saw that the priest had brought out Canglun and the cat demon. Everyone's attention then shifted to them.
Huaiwen watched the departing figures of the priests, her expression grave. Since the priests wouldn't tell her about the ghost, she would investigate herself. She couldn't let her master, who was currently in seclusion, be slandered for no reason.
