Chapter 451 Becoming the Ghost Master's Running Dog
Ye Xiaoman found the runes on the magic circle familiar. After careful identification, she found that it was the magic circle that Jing Zhui had used before to activate and modify Zhu Chuideng's memory.
It is estimated that when Zhu Chuideng was sorting out his memories, he discovered the existence of the remaining formation, searched it out, repaired it, and reused it.
Oh no, Zhu Chuideng wants to use the same method as Jing Zhui to get back at the person.
Jing Zhui snorted coldly and was about to summon his life sword again, but when he summoned his spiritual energy, his head suddenly felt a splitting pain and his spiritual veins were torn apart by an external force, interrupting his spell and temporarily preventing him from even summoning the heavy sword.
Jing Zhui is indeed a man of great achievements. Faced with this desperate situation, he still asked Zhu Chuideng in a very arrogant manner: "What do you want?"
Zhu Chuideng said, "Jing Zhui, my ghost realm is not a place where you can come and go as you please. How dare you, a remnant soul, come to disturb me? You will definitely have to pay the price."
The magic circle is activated.
Ye Xiaoman saw that Zhu Chuideng's five fingers lightly grabbed Jing Zhui's eyebrows, and Jing Zhui's memories flashed through his mind. Countless memories formed a barrier, surrounding the magic circle and playing rapidly.
However, Jing Zhui was not as caught off guard as Zhu Chuideng. When Zhu Chuideng took action, Jing Zhui had already sealed all of his memories.
All Ye Xiaoman and Zhu Chuideng could see were some insignificant little things, and all other important memories were blank.
Zhu Chuideng raised his foot and kicked Jing Zhui, who was temporarily unable to move, into the center of the magic circle. Ye Xiaoman watched Jing Zhui being swallowed by the magic circle and disappearing on the spot.
She didn't dare move at all.
Zhu Chuideng turned to her.
Woo, it's her turn next.
"Well done, Master Ghost."
Ye Xiaoman immediately changed her stance, abandoned her friendship with Jing Zhui, and joined Zhu Chuideng.
She walked over to Zhu Chuideng's side and stomped on the magic circle that Jing Zhui had vanished into, as if stomping on his head. She said with hatred, "This is the fate that the demons deserve."
The blood-red flowers of the other shore swayed in the wind. Ye Xiaoman and Zhu Chuideng stood shoulder to shoulder, looking at the magical weapon emitting black mist in front of them. It seemed to be the ghost lord and his followers.
Zhu Chuideng raised his eyebrows and continued to look at Ye Xiaoman without saying anything.
Ye Xiaoman stroked her chin pretentiously as she assessed Jing Zhui's fate. "Jing Zhui probably won't survive. Lord Ghost, you've eliminated a scourge for the six realms. On behalf of the people of all walks of life, I thank you."
As she spoke, she walked out with her feet tilted. "There's nothing I can do to help you here anymore. Goodbye."
Zhu Chuideng pinched the back of the collar with his fingers and pulled it back.
"Little girl, you can escape the death penalty, but you can't escape the punishment of living."
Ye Xiaoman pretended to be surprised: "Ah? Didn't you say you would let me go?"
"You and Jing Zhui have a close relationship," Zhu Chuideng fixed his gaze on Ye Xiaoman's slightly swollen lips, and said in a low voice, "Do you really need your uncle to check your memory before you admit it?"
Ye Xiaoman quickly covered her forehead and said, "I was really forced."
Zhu Chuideng coaxed her into doing something bad, using a tone that was deliberately tempting her with candy, "I have a chance for you to atone for your sins."
Ye Xiaoman was quite cooperative. "Uncle Chuideng, just tell me. I have an outstanding talent in plant cultivation and can help you take care of the vegetable garden."
"If I want you to help me farm, I can kill you and keep your soul by my side, which will also achieve my goal," Zhu Chuideng asked with a smile, "Do you really want to be a ghost couple with me?"
Ye Xiaoman sighed. She couldn't run away. Now that she was in Zhu Chuideng's hands, there was no room for negotiation.
"Please stop teasing me. Please tell me if you have anything to say."
Zhu Chuideng then introduced the main topic.
He first asked Ye Xiaoman: "What is your position?"
Ye Xiaoman straightened her clothes and said with her head held high, "I am a role model of righteousness and will devote my life to maintaining love and peace in the world."
Zhu Chuideng had no objection, perhaps because he was too lazy to expose her. "Right now, you have a chance to eliminate demons and defend the Way."
Ye Xiaoman: "Please elaborate."
Zhu Chuideng: "Although Jing Zhui cannot be resurrected yet and can only move around as a residual soul, I am worried that with his many cunning schemes, he should be able to achieve his goal of resurrection soon and endanger the six realms again."
Ye Xiaoman continued to treat the young man with the same strategy as before, and said admiringly: "The outside world says that you are neither good nor evil, and your position is unclear. It turns out that you have always been maintaining world peace."
Zhu Chuideng flicked Ye Xiaoman's forehead and said, "Don't treat me the same way you treated that idiot. I don't eat children's candy."
Tsk, old men are trouble.
Zhu Chuideng said, "Those monks can fight as much as they want, I don't care. But if the world is in chaos, it will affect my farming."
Ye Xiaoman shares the same opinion as Zhu Chuideng on this point.
The battles in the world of immortal cultivation, no matter how they are disguised as the opposition between good and evil, are ultimately fought by the celestial dragons who form groups and fight each other for the resources for cultivation. The ones who run to their deaths in the front and ultimately pay the price are the lower-class civilians. Of course, they avoid fighting if they can.
Ye Xiaoman quite likes Zhu Chuideng's straightforward way of speaking.
Not pretentious at all.
Whether he wants to kill you or not, he will tell you directly. Although he is considered to be extremely vicious according to rumors from the outside world, he surprisingly makes people feel safe.
Ye Xiaoman nodded and listened to Zhu Chuideng continue speaking.
"Thousands of years ago, Jing Zhui threatened to destroy the world, and the demons' iron hooves conquered almost every inch of the earth."
"The Demon Realm's last battleground was the Ghost Realm. I faced Jing Zhui, pouring all my hatred and resentment into the sea of blood and corpses, but I was only able to hold him back and take his demon heart alive."
"In the end, the geniuses from the human world, the ghost realm, the desolate sea, the demon world, and the gods gathered at the God-Slaying Land. After suffering heavy casualties, they finally killed Jing Zhui."
"However, the demon god is incredibly powerful. Although his body may have died, his spirit remains immortal. His spirit can only be suppressed, not destroyed. The demons held lengthy negotiations with the various realms, ultimately deciding that the remains of Jing Zhui's body would be buried separately among the five realms."
"Jing Zhui's spirit will be returned to the demon clan, and the Jing family, from which Jing Zhui came, will be responsible for suppressing it."
Zhu Chuideng paused, as if he had returned to the iron and bloody war years.
"This is certainly not a wise decision. Handing Jing Zhui's soul back to the demon clan is like letting a tiger return to the mountain."
"It's just that the war between the five realms and the demons had lasted for hundreds of years. All sides had fought relentlessly and reached the end of their rope. The demons were determined, and agreeing to their demands was the only way to end the war."
Ye Xiaoman scratched her head. "I only knew Jing Zhuiqiang, but I didn't expect him to be this tough."
He is worthy of being the lifelong enemy of the male protagonist Xiao Chujing.
Although Zhu Chuideng didn't like Jing Zhui's style of doing things, he had to admit, "Jing Zhui is a genius that appears once in a thousand years. Not everyone can be crowned a god."
Ye Xiaoman asked, "So, how do you want me to target Jing Zhui?"
