Chapter 149 The Last Hope 1



Jincheng, the imperial city where the royal family of the Great Jin and top aristocratic families live, is located in the northeast corner with the best location and feng shui. Dense forests surround a huge and magnificent mansion.

The towering ancient trees were like a green cloud, covering the huge mansion covering thousands of acres. Under the setting sun, the mansion was full of shadows, and there was an inexplicable chill.

Outside the main gate of the mansion, a total of 300 soldiers in helmets and armor, even with their visors removed, stood motionless at the door. On the plaque above their heads, the three large gold-plated characters "Huai Wang Mansion" sparkled in the sun.

"Dong~Rumble", the one-foot-thick bronze door slowly opened, and Chu Feng, wearing a light blue robe, with long hair and hands behind his back, walked out leisurely. Standing at the door of the Huai Palace, Chu Feng looked at the empty street on both sides and smiled faintly.

"It's too quiet, which is not good! Jincheng has been a little too quiet recently."

Before he finished speaking, a thin old man ran up to him, bent down slightly, and said softly, "Master, the news just came that Du Qing from the Du family of Dayue Temple suddenly returned to Jincheng with a group of people."

Chu Feng's face twitched slightly, and after a long silence, he waved his hand: "That incident back then, although it had nothing to do with my Chu family, it was also caused by me. All the male members of the Du family have been killed, and as for this orphan girl, let her go!"

With a heavy sigh, Chu Feng muttered to himself, "My Chu family has been passed down for ten generations. When doing business, we value benevolence and justice the most. We never do anything to kill everyone. Even if I have no choice now, I can't do such a wicked thing as wiping out the roots. Besides, this matter has nothing to do with my Chu family..."

The gaunt old man also sighed heavily. A pale green light flashed in his eyes, and his tone became colder and more solemn: "Another thing, the man from Jinyang Palace has entered the palace. He brought Du Qing with him."

"Hmm?" Chu Feng looked back at the gaunt old man. "Among the huge Jin royal family, Cao Xian is considered a capable person. Why did he enter the palace? Is it related to Du Qing? What do they want to do?"

The gaunt old man slowly straightened his back. His respect and deference to Chu Feng just now had completely disappeared. A faint gray-green yin energy emanated from his skin. He said in a cold voice: "No matter what he wants to do, he can't be allowed to do it. The current emperor of the Great Jin is the most ideal emperor of the Great Jin. Let the Great Jin court continue to be so rotten."

After a few chuckles, the gaunt old man said, "So, we can't let Cao Xian have any chance to mess things up. Ghost Mother said that Cao Xian must die! The generals under his command must also die! The imperial guards under Cao Xian's command are the only army in Dajin that still has some combat effectiveness. Once he dies, the Prince of Huai will take the opportunity to start a rebellion."

Chu Feng nodded and said calmly, "Then, let Cao Xian die... Actually, I really don't understand why it has to be so complicated? With the combined power of the five factions, Da Jin is no match for them. Why do we have to come up with so many conspiracies and tricks to make the people of Da Jin kill each other?"

The thin old man laughed dryly a few times and did not answer Chu Feng's question.

Chu Feng looked at the gaunt old man deeply, nodded, and said calmly: "I don't care so much... The world is like this, our Chu family can only protect ourselves... Anyway, in the end, don't forget the conditions that Ghost Mother promised our Chu family."

The gaunt old man smiled, the gloom on his face gradually dissipated, and the green ghost fire in his eyes gradually dimmed. He shuddered, inexplicably bent down again, and respectfully asked Chu Feng: "Master, do you have any other instructions?"

Chu Feng looked at the gaunt old man, shook his head, patted his shoulder vigorously, looked up at the setting sun in the west, and said calmly: "Nothing, just prepare a little, I'll go kill a few people, and then come back. Well, cook a pot of rice and chicken porridge, I've been eating too much fish and meat recently, so dinner will be a little lighter."

A quarter of an hour later, Chu Tian walked out from the alley behind the Huai Palace.

He changed into a silver-white robe embroidered with nine dancing phoenixes, wore a purple-gold crown about a foot long on his head, a long sword almost as tall as his body at his waist, and a black mask with a phoenix pattern. He walked towards Jinyang Palace leisurely with his hands behind his back.

He turned from the alley onto a main road and walked openly in the middle of the road.

As he walked, he whispered to himself: "Today, brother, can you please leave my body? You can't do anything to me, and I can't do anything to you! Over the years, I have done a lot for the ghosts, and I can't wash it off. Why do you still occupy my body?"

A strong green light lit up in Chu Feng's eyes, and an extremely sinister voice squeaked: "Hehe, this is the order of the Ghost Mother, who dares to disobey? Besides, Chu Feng, I am very interested in you."

"Hehe, with my natural ability to possess other bodies and my strength at a high level in the Saint Realm, this is the first time I've encountered a difficult person like you. I can only barely control your body, but I can't devour your soul at all. Over the past decade, I've thought of many ways to completely devour your soul and occupy your spiritual body."

"Swish, Chu Feng, I will not leave your body until you are completely transformed into my evil ghost! Ghost Mother said that I can't give you even a single chance! Unless all of you Chu clan members are transformed into my evil ghosts, otherwise... I can't give you even a single chance."

Chu Feng sighed softly, and whispered to himself, "Yeah, it's really strange, why can't you devour the souls of my Chu family members? Not to mention, my father, me, and my children are all so-called psychic bodies!"

"No, no, no, you and Chu Ye are psychic bodies, and your son Chu Jie, he is born with the body of a Ghost Emperor!" The sinister voice also murmured in great confusion: "How strange, when the Ghost Mother said this back then, the Ghost Kings of our Ghost family were all shocked. How could a human in the human world be born with the body of a Ghost Emperor? But he has the body of a Ghost Emperor, but he behaves like a living person!"

"Could it be that he is the reincarnation of some ancient great being in my ghost world?" The evil voice gradually faded away.

"Well, it's really a headache! But, Chu Feng, don't think too much. Just be honest and work hard for my Phantom Ghost clan. Your Chu family is now inseparable from my Phantom Ghost clan." The voice laughed complacently.
