Song Huaide's eyes widened with fear. He wanted to fight, wanted to escape, but he couldn't. He was too weak.
He had always wanted to become stronger and obtain the Thunder Fruit, and he would do anything to achieve this, even letting his two sons sign a ghost contract. But in the end, one of his sons wanted to kill him, and the other killed him. He was still so weak, so weak that he had no power to resist.
Song Huaide's eyes widened and he gradually stopped struggling.
Song Wang pulled his hand away, and Song Huaide fell straight down. He was dead.
The restless ghostly corpses gradually dispersed and drifted to another place. Everyone was silent, no one said anything. Song Huaide deserved his crime and his death was not a pity. But even if he died, the things that the Song brothers lost could never be returned.
Song Wang walked forward and picked up Song Yuan. Song Yuan smiled and called out, "Brother." However, at this moment, his smile was particularly sad. Fortunately, although he no longer had good intentions in his heart, he did not have much malice either. After Song Huaide died, he did not intend to hurt anyone else.
Song Wang bowed to his eldest grandson Zijun and said, "Thank you." He turned around and bowed to Lu Ziyao, Yi Xichen and others one by one, "Thank you very much."
Lu Ziyao waved his hands: "No... no need."
Xiao Kui looked awkward and turned his head to look away.
Gongsun Diya couldn't help at all, which was even more embarrassing.
Yi Xichen asked: "What are you going to do next?"
Song Wang said hesitantly, "I'll take him to Chimei Town."
If Song Yuan had not signed the ghost contract, Yi Xichen and the others would have taken him away. He was still young, so if they sent him to a cultivation sect to practice well, he might have a promising future. However, Song Yuan had gained great power through the ghost contract, but he only had a few years left to live. It would be better to let him stay with Song Wang during his last days. Chimei Town was the entrance to the ghost world, where ghost cultivators and living souls could stay for a long time. It was indeed a good place for them brothers.
Song Yuan naturally had no objection to this. He had lost his fear and was calm as a newborn ox that is not afraid of a tiger. He could feel at ease no matter in the ghost world or the human world.
Song Wang finally bowed to everyone and left with Song Yuan in his arms.
After they left, the brothers and sisters of Tianjian Sect remained silent.
Xiao Kui got close to Yi Xichen without knowing when. He stuck so close that his arm touched Yi Xichen. Yi Xichen was reluctant to give in, but as soon as he moved away, Xiao Kui followed him silently.
Yi Xichen didn't understand what he wanted to do and watched him warily, but Xiao Kui just squeezed him and didn't do anything else. Gradually, Yi Xichen was squeezed to another position.
It was Gongsun Di who broke the silence first: "Senior Brother Lu, what should we do now?" They had come to the ghost world in order to find the powerful ghost that controlled the corpses. Although the outcome was unexpected, the matter was finally resolved. For a moment, they were so confused that they didn't know what to do next.
Lu Ziyao turned his gaze to his eldest grandson Zijun and Yi Xichen.
Gongsun Di was nervous again. Just now, in order to find Song Yuan quickly, he temporarily ignored the identity of Changsun Zijun, but now he had to care about it. It is true that Changsun Zijun had not done anything bad to them along the way, and Gongsun Di saw Changsun Zijun's sword was heading for his back before he turned into gold and stone. Some things might be his misunderstanding, but he heard with his own ears that Changsun Zijun was the young master of the ghost world, and he saw with his own eyes that Changsun Zijun could ward off ghosts, which he could not deny!
Gongsun Di was about to say something when he heard Yi Xichen say, "Brother Lu, you guys go now. We still have some things to do. Let's say goodbye now."
Lu Ziyao said, "You said earlier that you wanted to find the real murderer who killed Elder Yao. Do you need help?"
Yi Xichen smiled and said, "No need."
Gongsun Di hurried over and secretly tugged at the corner of Lu Ziyao's clothes: "Senior Brother Lu, Junior Brother Xiao, since they say it's not necessary, let's leave the ghost world as soon as possible."
Lu Ziyao glanced at his eldest grandson Zijun hesitantly: "Since you say so..."
Gongsun Di suddenly said nervously: "Chang Sun Zijun, what are you doing!"
The eldest grandson Zijun was completely confused and had no idea what the eldest grandson Di was doing.
But Gongsun Di pointed at the teleportation array not far away and said, "Song Yuan is gone, isn't it you who is behind this?"
Everyone looked in the direction his finger pointed, only to see that the ghosts and evil spirits that had just dispersed were actually rushing towards that teleportation array, and disappeared one after another in the black vortex.
This scene left everyone puzzled. Why did so many ghosts leave this area? Why? Did someone drive them away? What was the purpose? This was certainly not the work of the eldest grandson Jun. Could it be that there was nothing wrong with this place, so the ghosts dispersed on their own?
Gongsun Di said: "Do you want to trap us here?!"
The eldest grandson, Zijun, was startled, and then his face changed. Gongsun Di hit the nail on the head. This teleportation array will automatically shut down after it has transported a certain number of ghosts! So this is the purpose!
His sword slashed at the ghosts rushing into the vortex: "Get out of the way!"
However, it was too late. The last ghost disappeared in the teleportation array, and the black vortex disappeared before his eyes.
At the same time as the teleportation array closed, a black light flashed under Yi Xichen's feet. Yi Xichen immediately realized that something was wrong, and his eldest grandson Zijun was in tune with him and felt the same thing almost at the same time.
Everything happened in a flash. A small black vortex appeared out of thin air under Yi Xichen's feet and swept him in! And the eldest grandson Zijun also rushed into the vortex at lightning speed!
Xiao Kui, who was originally standing behind Yi Xichen, jumped forward.
Bang!
His feet landed firmly on the ground, and the swirling black air condensed and disappeared under his feet.
After sending Yi Xichen and his eldest grandson, Zijun, away, the small teleportation array was directly closed. In other places, a new teleportation array was opened, but the destination of the teleportation array had changed.
This sudden change stunned everyone, especially Xiao Kui who missed the jump. For a moment, the three remaining brothers stared at each other, and no one knew what to say.
The eldest grandson Zijun and Yi Xichen opened their eyes and found that they were teleported to a new area.
The two waited for a while, but no one else caught up. Yi Xichen raised his eyebrows and said, "This Xiao Kui! No wonder he sneaked up to me and stood next to me earlier. It seems he was planning this drama!"
The eldest grandson Zijun said nothing, but was a little worried about Lu Ziyao and Gongsun Di.
Yi Xichen said: "Don't worry, Xiao Kui has no reason to attack Senior Brother Lu and Senior Brother Gongsun."
The eldest grandson Zijun hummed. Indeed, Xiao Kui's target has always been Yi Xichen. If he wanted to do something bad to Lu Ziyao and Gongsun Di, he could have done it before they arrived.
Yi Xichen asked: "Where did you go just now?"
The eldest grandson, Jun, took out a Thunder fruit from his pocket and handed it to him.
Yi Xichen's eyes lit up immediately, and he held the golden-blue fruit in his hands lovingly: "Is this the Thunder Fruit?!" No matter if he can use it or not, it is always a pleasure to get a rare treasure. If he doesn't need it himself, he can sell it for money. He will get rich!
However, after a while, Yi Xichen was a little puzzled: "How come this natural treasure is so easy to get as if it were cabbage?"
The eldest grandson, Zijun, asked, "Do you regret it?"
"What do you regret?" Yi Xichen was slightly startled, then he realized that his eldest grandson Zijun was asking him if he regretted choosing to practice dual cultivation with him too early. After all, the materials for body refining didn't seem that difficult to obtain!
Yi Xichen was amused and teased him, "Regret it!"
The eldest grandson, Zijun: “…Humph!”
Yi Xichen put away the Thunder Fruit and said with a smile: "I regret not practicing dual cultivation with you earlier, otherwise I might have become a powerful person now!"
The eldest grandson Zijun curled his lips: Could it be that the meaning of dual cultivation is to help Yi Xichen break the seal and improve his cultivation?
Yi Xichen noticed his displeasure, and looked at him with sparkling eyes, saying sincerely: "You are very good, really very good, very good, very good! I regret that I was not born a hundred years earlier, so that I could practice cultivation with you a hundred years earlier! Practice cultivation every day, every night, and never separate from you!"
The eldest grandson, Zijun: "..."
Yi Xichen hugged his eldest grandson Jun's neck, kissed him directly on the mouth, and rubbed his forehead affectionately. The ghosts floating around quickly covered their eyes.
Yi Xichen noticed that his eldest grandson Jun's mood had obviously improved, and he also became more excited. He put his arm around his shoulder and said, "Let's go." He paused, because he obviously noticed that his eldest grandson Jun's reaction had become stronger, and said, "But then again, don't get horny in this damn place."
The eldest grandson, Zijun: "..." Not allowing me to be in heat, but still provoking me!!! How inhumane!!!
The place where they were teleported to was another vast cemetery. There was no one around except for some wandering ghosts.
Yi Xichen called out, "Mr. Xiaoli, are you there?"
No one responded.
He shrugged, took his eldest grandson Jun's hand and walked forward.
Ghost King Xiao Lijun must want to see him. Even if Xiao Lijun doesn't want to see them, they will still go to find him! The only thing they need to be careful about is not to let the erratic teleportation array here separate them.
The eldest grandson Zijun and Yi Xichen were searching in the vast ghost world. On the other side, Lu Ziyao, Xiao Kui and others were also looking for a way out.
They walked around aimlessly for a while, and Xiao Kui suddenly stopped, pointed at a black vortex and said, "There's a teleportation array here, let's go in."
Lu Ziyao and Gongsun Di did not recognize the way to the ghost world and had no idea where to go. They could only wander around randomly, so they went in.
They were sent to another area. Xiao Kui walked forward without saying a word, and the two followed him in a daze.
After passing through three teleportation arrays, they returned to the area they had originally entered. Everywhere were moving ghosts and evil spirits, and the darkness was overwhelming. Gongsun Di immediately took a defensive stance.
However, Song Huaide was dead, and the Song brothers were not here. Although these groups of ferocious ghosts showed their dislike for them, they were just a nuisance and did not attack as crazily as before.
Xiao Kui brought them to a whirlpool and said, "Go this way."
Gongsun Di went in first, confused.
Lu Ziyao was about to go in, but hesitated for a moment and asked, "Junior Brother Xiao, do you know the way?"
"I don't recognize him," Xiao Kui said with a sullen face, "he just wandered around randomly."
Lu Ziyao felt puzzled, but he still entered the teleportation array.
When he opened his eyes, he had returned to Chimei Town, and Gongsun Di was right beside him.
Gongsun Di said happily, "I actually got out! I thought I would have to wander around in that maze-like place for several days!"
Lu Ziyao silently looked at the place where they were teleported. But after a long time, Xiao Kui did not follow them out.
After seeing off Lu Ziyao and Gongsun Di, Xiao Kui immediately turned around and quickly shuttled back and forth between teleportation arrays. Outsiders did not know, but Xiao Kui, as the son of Lord Xiao Li, knew that the teleportation arrays in the ghost world had underlying rules and were not arranged randomly without reason. After understanding this rule, he walked in different spaces in the ghost world, just like traveling between different towns in the cultivation continent, and there was no difficulty.
He ran through several areas and ran into two tall black-clothed ghost cultivators. One of them had a big nose, like a bull's nose; the other had protruding teeth, like a horse's mouth. These two people had profound cultivation, and Xiao Kui felt a strong pressure as soon as they met.
There are not many ghost cultivators with such a level of cultivation. In addition, the appearances of these two people are easy to recognize. Although Xiao Kui has never seen them before, he immediately knew who they are.
"Ox-head, horse-faced!" Xiao Kui shouted.
The two ghost cultivators said unhappily: "Who is it?"
Xiao Kui said, "I am your young master! I am ordered by my father to bring someone to see him. You have come at the right time. Help me lead the guys around that person away!"
"Young Master?" The Ox-Headed and Horse-Faced looked at each other and not only did not move, they also looked at Xiao Kui at the same time, their eyes seemed to say: Damn, idiot!
