Chapter 29 What Do You Know

Several people stared at it for a while, and Wen Qing suddenly frowned and said, "This is the method of replenishing the soul of the dead."

"Forbidden Technique."

"I'm afraid all the evil spirits in this place have been sewn into that man's body."

As soon as he said that, He Cen's mind immediately came together. When he looked at the red line flying in the air again, he suddenly got goosebumps.

The man who climbed out of the giant pit had a handsome, heroic face. Judging from his appearance, he should be the general guarding the city mentioned in the previous story. However, after so many years, he didn't seem to have much memory. He was unconscious and only wanted to rescue the princess from Bei Qi.

Wen Qing seemed to be somewhat wary of this forbidden technique, and raised his hand to protect the sword spirit behind him, "Step back, if he explodes, it might affect you."

"Is it so serious? Can it even blow through the defenses of you monks in the Fusion Stage?"

He Cen did not beat around the bush when speaking, and his description was so frank that it actually made Wen Qing laugh a bit.

"That's not the case, but this technique is forbidden, so it's better to be careful. The female ghost fed him a lot of living souls, and this place has a blessed land for nourishment. Judging from the current situation, it should not be simple."

"The fire in the building has been burning for so long, but he is fine. I'm afraid it will be difficult for us to deal with him."

Although it was tricky, there was no sign of anxiety on their faces. They all looked calm and composed. Wen Qing asked He Cen to stay away from him, probably because he was worried that he wouldn't be able to control his strength well, and that his own strength might hurt the sword spirit during the fight later.

After all, a big guy in the fusion stage is still a very terrifying existence in the world of cultivation. It may be difficult to suppress the power when using forbidden techniques on the opponent.

He Cen understood this principle, so he stayed still and didn't move.

The man had been transformed beyond recognition by the forbidden techniques over the past few hundred years, but after his body was fully repaired, Jiang Yao in Bei Qi's hands suddenly threw himself forward and cried out, "Gu Lang!"

This cry was full of true emotion. He Cen tilted his head and asked Bo Lou in a low voice, "Is he really the princess's lover? The story you told is quite true."

Bei Qi's tail was pulling Jiang Yao. The Princess of Xi County had already had all her magic power burned away by Bo Lou. Now she was not very threatening.

On the contrary, the way he looked at being controlled by Bei Qi was quite pitiful, which immediately angered the general.

He was the first to strike, so Wen Qing and the others certainly didn't hold back.

The ancient city was immediately filled with smoke and the roar of spells colliding was quite loud. He Cen was still a little uncomfortable with the battlefield of monks. It looked good on the screen, but after putting himself in the situation, the scene was really thrilling.

In addition, the forbidden soul-replenishing technique had sewn too many living souls into it. No matter how it was used, as long as the general was injured, the other souls would be reduced to ashes.

Wen Qing and the others all wanted to appear good in front of He Cen. If they showed too much murderous aura, the sword spirit would probably not be able to get close to them, so they were cautious in their actions.

He and Jun Chao, one was splitting the red thread of stitching, and the other was collecting the souls of the dead. Later, they managed to show some sense of coordination, and their movements became much faster.

The general and the princess seem to have a close relationship, and it is estimated that they had a secret friendship in their lifetime. Now, at this critical moment of life and death, neither of them cares about their own lives and wishes to take the blame for the other.

Wen Qing was a ghost cultivator and was quite familiar with the forbidden soul-replenishing techniques they had. After finding the weakness, his moves were deadly and he quickly tore the huge body that was sewn together with red thread into pieces.

He Cen blinked and saw Jiang Yao crying to the point of fainting. He couldn't help but jump down from Bo Lou's arms and looked around the princess from left to right.

"Why are you crying? I'm sending you into samsara. Isn't that good enough?"

"Do you know how much injustice you two have incurred by raising him with forbidden techniques? Don't you think about yourself?"

Jiang Yao collapsed, "What do you know!"

"I just wanted to revive my Gu Lang. What's wrong with me? Those people deserved to die. None of them were good people! Gu Lang and I worked so hard to treat them, but in the end, they killed them all. Is it wrong for me to take revenge?"

"I'm right!"

"You are the one who brought them here. You deserve to die! You have entered the blessed land and have been nourished by spiritual energy. Why don't you let Gu Lang and I live?"

He Cen stepped aside and said calmly, not at all irritated by her. "Look at him now. Does he look like a living person?"

"You have been wandering here for hundreds of years, and the karma has only deepened. Countless people in this city have suffered at your hands. You have resentment, and so do they. You are unwilling to die, and neither are they willing to die."

"Did you see that? Those living souls were rushing around in your husband's body. Don't you think he felt any pain?"

"The ancient city should have been destroyed long ago. You have the ability to go against the will of heaven. That's your ability. So I brought these capable brothers of mine here. What are you trying to break through?"

"You are just not as skilled as others and cannot protect your beloved lover. It is really stupid for you to blame the heavens, the earth, and me."

"If it weren't for my sake, do you think your lover would have held out for so long? He has good intentions and wants to give you a chance to live. If you don't know what's good for you, we won't be polite to you."

He usually looks innocent and coquettish, and likes to cling to people even when he's hurt. He speaks and acts in a childish way, but I didn't expect that he's actually quite good at choking people.

Jiang Yao was so enraged by him, but the next second she saw Wen Qing kill someone and her Gu Lang was seriously injured. She was finally defeated and shed a few tears of blood.

"Stop! Stop hitting me! Please let Gu Lang go. I beg you. This is all my fault. This is all caused by me. It has nothing to do with Gu Lang."

"Immortals, please be kind and give Gu Lang a chance to live."

The forbidden formations and the forbidden technique for replenishing the soul in this ancient city were originally initiated by Jiang Yao. She had just been burned by Bo Lou's strange fire and no longer had much magic power left. When Gu Lang appeared, she was at the end of her strength and used all her strongest moves in her last few moments.

As a result, Wen Qing carefully dismantled all of his souls, and now he has no power to resist at all.

Jiang Yao was crying so hard that she was heartbroken. When Jun Chao brought up the general's soul, she couldn't hold back any longer and rushed over to him. "Gu Lang, Gu Lang! Gu Lang, you've suffered so much. I'm sorry for you. It's all my fault."

The lover whom she had protected for half her life had been tortured beyond recognition by the forbidden technique. Now he had no memory of his own and just stared at Jiang Yao blankly, unable to say anything.

In fact, there was nothing interesting about these two ghosts. He Cen stood aside with his arms folded, and suddenly sighed, "Tell me, what happened to you when you were alive?"

"Why did you kill so many innocent people? A good city has become like this. What do you want to do?"
