160. Chapter 160 The Conspiracy Behind the Scenes (Part 4)



However, under the constant attacks of the surrounding evil spirits, the defensive formation could not hold out for long, and it was only a matter of time before it was breached.

The girl's face was full of reluctance, "They just gave up on me like that..." Although she said so, she knew that in this situation, even if Fan Xiaoling and Ning Zhong were there, it would only eliminate two more people.

The girl took out a flare and stared at the evil ghosts outside with vicious eyes. Before asking for help, she had to kill an evil ghost to ensure that she passed the test!

In the monitoring room, Feng Ce frowned when he saw the girl throw out a flare and rush out of the formation.

While connecting with Wen Qi, he was thinking that the methods of suicide he had seen since his birth might not be as many as what he had seen today.

As soon as the line was connected, Wen Qi said, "I'm on my way there."

Feng Ce's brows relaxed, "Okay, be careful."

Before he could say anything more, a candidate in another area was in danger, so he immediately switched lines to contact other invigilators.

At this moment, he extremely regretted taking this job, and belatedly realized that he had been tricked by Nothingness.

On the mountain, Wen Qi was rushing towards the scene of the accident.

In fact, she had been keeping an eye on that area when the ghosts were gathering, so it was foreseeable that something would happen, sooner or later. But she didn't expect that she would be encountered by Fan Xiaoling and her team by chance, and there were only three people in the team, and one of them would disobey orders.

When Ning Guochao discovered the abnormality before, he was extremely worried and stood up to go rescue, but was stopped by Wen Qi.

They were examiners, and they were not allowed to act without authorization before the examinees sent out a distress signal. This was a rule. Moreover, there were quite a lot of ghosts, and Ning Guochao, a mid-level celestial master, might not be able to handle them if he just went over there.

Fortunately, Fan Xiaoling successfully escaped and he finally calmed down.

Wen Qi had been paying attention with her soul power, and she rushed over there the moment the flare exploded.

This trap gathered more than fifty evil ghosts. Once the ghost energy spread out, it really felt like it was endless and covered the sky and the sun, as if one was surrounded by an army of souls.

Among them, the leading evil ghost has shown a tendency to evolve into the ghost king.

This development was something that all the invigilators had never expected. The evil spirits they placed in the examination room had been carefully screened. They could not be too weak or too strong, otherwise there would be no point in the examination.

Therefore, the appearance of the Half-Step Ghost King was a bit too strange.

Wen Qi felt it necessary to investigate the origin of this Half-Step Ghost King.

In less than a minute, Wen Qi arrived at the scene. He didn't even have to do anything. The moment the soul power fluctuations spread out, all the evil spirits were terrified and fled in all directions.

These are important exam questions and cannot be killed, only dispersed. They must be left to the candidates to deal with.

But there is one that must not be missed.

Wen Qi's eyes flashed with gold, locking onto the Half-Step Ghost King, and said coldly: "Don't waste your energy."

As soon as he finished speaking, a tree root sprang out from under the Half-Step Ghost King's feet and coiled around his soul like a python. The Half-Step Ghost King subconsciously jumped up and just happened to crash into the spider web-like branches extending from above his head.

It looks like walking into a trap, extremely stupid.

Wen Qi stopped paying attention to him after launching the attack. She was extremely confident that he could not escape. She walked over to the unconscious girl and checked her. She had overdrawn her soul power and had external injuries. It was not particularly serious, but she had to stay in the hospital for a few days to recuperate.

Taking out a soul-fixing talisman and sticking it on the girl's forehead, Wen Qi walked towards the Half-Step Ghost King with an expressionless face.

"I'll only ask you once." Wen Qi's voice was calm but indifferent, "Who sent you to the examination room?"

The branches had already bit into the soul of the Half-Step Ghost King, but he had no intention of speaking at all, and there was disdain mixed with hostility in his eyes.

Wen Qi didn't care and continued: "Every three seconds, I will cut off a part of your body. For example, now, after three seconds, I will cut off your right calf."

As soon as he finished speaking, the branches suddenly tightened, and the Half-Step Ghost King felt a pain in his right leg. His calf instantly separated from his body, floating in front of him, and exploded directly into a ghost aura that slowly dissipated.

Wen Qi chuckled, "Next, the left leg."

Just like before, the Half-Step Ghost King's left calf was severed by the branches and exploded again in front of him.

After losing his two calves in succession, the soul of the Half-Step Ghost King began to fade, and he began to get scared, especially when Wen Qi's eyes were scanning his body as if he was picking pork in a supermarket.

Wen Qi clapped his hands, and the Half-Step Ghost King's soul trembled, and without being urged, he shouted loudly: "I say!"

Wen Qi showed a somewhat regretful look, "I haven't had enough fun yet."

The Half-Step Ghost King was even more frightened. This person was not actually a regular Heavenly Master from the Heavenly Master Association, but an evil Heavenly Master who came from somewhere! How could he look even scarier than a ghost like him?

This method is simply not something a human could come up with! The Half-Step Ghost King didn't even wait for Wen Qi to ask, and was about to say, "It was Yunhai..."

As soon as he uttered three words, the soul of the Half-Step Ghost King suddenly expanded rapidly, and in the blink of an eye it exploded with a "bang"! The next few words he said were also drowned in the explosion.

Circles of evil and resentful ghostly energy spread out, and the examination room suddenly became even more eerie.

As the Half-Step Ghost King exploded, Wen Qi used her soul power to wrap herself up. After everything dissipated, she frowned and said, "Yunhai...Tianshi Association?"

Was it sent by Chen Yu? Did he have any special contact with Xuye? What was their purpose? To kill young celestial masters with potential and create a gap in the celestial master circle? Or did they want to collect more high-quality souls as experimental materials? Wen Qi felt that the latter possibility was more likely.

But it would be too crazy and too confident to take action during the Heavenly Master's Assessment. It is obvious that the hope of success is slim.

In any case, this discovery must be reported to Taoist Master Xuwu first. Perhaps similar things will happen in the intermediate and advanced examination halls.

Wen Qi carried the unconscious girl and rushed down the mountain as quickly as possible.

Halfway through, her headset was connected, and Feng Ce's voice sounded a little unhappy, "To make a long story short, tell me your findings."

Wen Qi was confused, but she also knew that now was not the time to chat, so she repeated the information and guesses she had just obtained in the simplest language.

Feng Ce just said, "I understand." and then disconnected the communication.

Wen Qi raised her eyebrows, and when she got down the mountain, she discovered the reason why Feng Ce was unhappy. (End of this chapter)
