Chapter 574: Digging Three Feet Deep (for "Wei Zhong who loves pork kidney and walnut soup")
The door was kicked open by Xiao Chujing.
Xiao Chujing stood at the door, his inner demon clone following him closely.
For some reason, the ghosts were very afraid of Xiao Chujing. They came specifically to besiege Dou Xian, and stood far away outside the door, keeping a safe distance from Xiao Chujing.
Only after Xiao Chujing and his inner demon stepped through the door did they cautiously rush in and surround Dou Xian.
Xiao Chujing began to rummage through boxes and drawers, anxiously searching for Ye Xiaoman's whereabouts in every corner where people might be hiding.
He refined all the ghosts that besieged him and Ye Xiaoman into pills, and stood gently and attentively at the door of Ye Xiaoman's wooden house, calling Ye Xiaoman's name softly. He waited for a long time, but Ye Xiaoman did not open the door.
He was worried that something might happen to Ye Xiaoman, so he broke into the house.
The bed was empty and Ye Xiaoman was nowhere to be found.
He used his spiritual sense to search the entire city of the Rule Land, but could not find any trace of Ye Xiaoman.
She secretly left the ruins of the living.
He wanted to chase after him immediately, but found that the place was shrouded by a mysterious and powerful force. He was like a moth trapped in a lantern, and he could not break the barrier and leave no matter what he tried.
Xiao Chujing was very confused.
He couldn't figure it out.
Ye Xiaoman's cultivation is far below his. Why can Ye Xiaoman easily leave a place where he cannot leave?
Since Ye Xiaoman has a way to leave this place, why doesn't she tell him.
Why did Ye Xiaoman hide it from him and sneak away from him late at night?
She was so unclear that he could only have one guess: she was meeting her lover in secret.
As soon as the thought came to his mind, Xiao Chujing immediately denied it.
Impossible. Junior sister loves me so much, she won’t betray me.
She must be hiding something.
Or maybe she was afraid and hiding somewhere in the Land of Rules, waiting for him to find her.
Let's look around first.
Dou Xian stared at Xiao Chujing, who turned his room upside down without even saying a word.
Xiao Chujing is extremely arrogant.
"Sword cultivator, you're looking for death!"
The ghosts interrupted Dou Xian.
"Good man, we are poor people fleeing famine."
"I'm so hungry. I haven't eaten in years."
Dou Xian got up from the ground and shouted angrily: "Open your dog eyes and see, you dare to hit the swing of this ghost king."
The power of the Land of Rules is far greater than that of Dou Xian, and the ghosts are not afraid of him at all.
Several skinny ghosts attacked.
"We want to eat your flesh."
"You have such delicate skin and tender flesh, you look like a young man from a wealthy family. You were raised by the people at our expense, and now we want you back."
"We each only have one bite, just one bite."
"Don't hide."
"Don't move."
Dou Xian was fixed in place by the power of rules and could not move. He watched helplessly as countless pairs of filthy ghost hands grabbed him, tore off pieces of his flesh, and devoured them ravenously.
This was a double torture for Dou Xian.
Dou Xian cursed loudly and could only endure it.
Blood holes of varying sizes soon appeared on his body, and in the deepest hole one could even see white bones. But in the blink of an eye, his torn flesh healed at a speed visible to the naked eye.
This little bit of damage can't hurt his foundation at all.
Just have to get through tonight.
At this time, Xiao Chujing searched the whole house without success and walked to Dou Xian.
"Junior Sister?"
Dou Xian glared at Xiao Chujing with malice.
Xiao Chujing was also looking at Dou Xian with ill intentions, his eyes sometimes clear and sometimes confused.
He immediately remembered that Dou Xian had tried to frame Ye Xiaoman countless times during the day.
Of course he wouldn't allow it.
Xiao Chujing asked Dou Xian in a gloomy tone, "Did you hide my little apprentice sister?"
Dou Xian didn't take Xiao Chujing seriously at all.
The reason he kept Xiao Chujing around was simply because he hadn't anticipated the new trick that would allow him to die miserably.
The local landlords have also set their sights on Xiao Chujing, and Xiao Chujing won't live long.
Dou Xian then replied provocatively, "So what?"
Xiao Chujing immediately pushed away the ghosts that were surrounding Dou Xianshen and trying to snatch his flesh and blood, "Give it back to me."
Dou Xian liked to see others break down, and he was furious but helpless to do anything about it.
"Hehe, I won't."
Xiao Chujing was silent for a while, touching Ye Xiaoman's red hairband on the hilt of the sword, as if thinking about how to deal with a Ghost King-level opponent.
Dou Xian saw Xiao Chujing take out the space ring and began to search for the magic weapon inside with his mind.
Dou Xian certainly didn't think that a small Jindan stage cultivator could come up with any decent magic weapon, let alone possess an enemy that could defeat a ghost king.
When he saw that Xiao Chujing was unhappy, his mood turned into a bright sunshine, even though the ghosts were still around him eating his flesh.
Dou Xian began to defraud Xiao Chujing.
"Your little apprentice sister is now in my hands."
"I locked her up in a place only I know, and the only way in and out is to unlock it with my palm print."
"Do you want to change her back?"
"First, destroy your golden elixir, kneel down and kowtow three times to apologize, and I will return her to you."
Xiao Chujing finally found what he was looking for in the space ring.
Dou Xian thought he would take out his broken alchemy furnace again.
Ridiculous, a mere furnace cannot possibly refine a ghost king.
Then, Xiao Chujing took out the most precious treasure of the Ghost King of the Death Parting Land, the Nine Tribulations Coffin.
The ghost kings are equally powerful, and one ghost king can kill another ghost king.
Dou Xian's smile went from bright to disappear in just one breath.
"Are you... Xiao Chujing, the one who killed Aunt Yuan's clone?"
As the truth of one issue is revealed, another truth immediately surfaces.
In order to capture Ye Xiaoman, the ghost kings have recently conducted a thorough study of her interpersonal network.
Dou Xian was surprised: "Emperor Sword and Nameless Sword are brothers and sisters from the same sect."
"You call Ghost General Yin Junior Sister, does that mean Ghost General Yin is Ye Xiaoman?"
Dou Xian immediately looked to see if Tu Liudao and Lu Qi were still nearby, as he had important information to report.
Just as he was about to transmit his voice over a thousand miles, Xiao Chujing sealed his ghost meridian.
Xiao Chujing threw the coffin to the ground and opened it.
Dou Xian wanted to cry but had no tears.
Dou Xian wanted to escape, but the local rules were like an impenetrable prison that trapped him; he also wanted to use the escape technique immediately to get away from Xiao Chujing, but unfortunately he had temporarily lost his ability to move.
Xiao Chujing began to activate the talisman on the ghost coffin.
He told Dou Xian in a good mood, and even slowed down his speech for fear that he couldn't hear clearly.
"If you won't tell me the whereabouts of my junior sister, I'll cut open your head and search your memory."
"Only your palm prints can open the cell. I will chop off both of your palms and carry them with me."
Many years later, whenever Dou Xian recalled the past, he would always think of this distant night.
After this night, Dou Xianyi's blood experience made him understand a simple truth in the world of cultivation:
Within the six realms, what is more terrifying than ghosts and gods is the human heart, and what is more terrifying than the human heart is this bastard Xiao Chujing.
Dou Xian: “…”
Dou Xian: "My dear."
Today, another life was lost.
…
Ye Xiaoman used a magic weapon to set an alarm clock and got up as soon as it was dawn.
There was no one on the bed.
