I just don't know which faction sent this girl, or what her purpose is.
Tianning didn't mince words: "Give me the list of all the people you've worked with for face transplants."
"W-what?" A hint of surprise flashed in the Ghost Doctor's eyes, and he subconsciously pretended to be stupid, saying, "I've handled so many faces, how could I possibly remember so many..."
"It's precisely because the brain can't remember that we need to write it down." Tianning wasn't fooled by him.
She had heard Ying Shi mention that the Goddess Lingyue had spent a full hundred years searching for her face, which showed that the Ghost Doctor had changed faces countless times over the years.
It's not just about replacing ordinary mortals with cultivators; who says cultivators can't replace other cultivators?
If we could get our hands on that list of face-swapping results, we might discover quite a few surprises...
"There is no list. Some of my guests are of noble status, especially someone like the Goddess Lingyue. How could my little Ghost Doctor Valley possibly afford to offend them? After the transaction is completed, Ghost Doctor Valley and the guests will have no further dealings!" Ghost Doctor said confidently.
If it were anything else, the Ghost Doctor might be able to say that as long as this plague god is sent away, that would be fine, but regarding that list, absolutely not!
Probing is one of the Shadows' strengths; they are always assigned to do shady things. Shadow One stepped forward and suggested, "You can hand him over to me. I will cut off his fingers and toes one by one until he tells the truth."
His casual words sent shivers down the spine of the ghost doctor.
The Shadow's words are simple, but as the Shadow's former owner, the Ghost Doctor knows their methods all too well. Under such torture, some stubborn people will eventually be turned into human pigs!
Perhaps he hadn't realized it before, but now that it was him, the Ghost Doctor was still so shocked that his mind went blank for a moment.
"If you really dare to lay a hand on me, then no one will survive! Do you really think Ghost Doctor Valley has no one backing it? If something really happens to me, the people hunting you down..."
Tian Ning was speechless: "Even if you don't get into trouble, you'll definitely send people to hunt us down when you get back."
Tianning: "You're just spouting nonsense."
Ghost Doctor: "..."
Tian Ning waved his hand: "Drag him away."
I had originally planned to give her that sack of top-grade healing pills so that the Ghost Doctor could experience what it meant to suffer a fate worse than death, but it seems that I won't need to use them now.
Just as Yingyi was about to drag the person inside to cut off his fingers, the Ghost Doctor, who was bound like a pretzel, suddenly began to writhe and crawl wildly like a giant worm.
Tianning: "???"
Tianning: "Did he get a shock?"
Shadow One: "..."
He doesn't know either.
As the Ghost Doctor moved, everyone heard a clear, silvery sound coming from his body. The sound seemed normal at first glance, but soon everyone realized something was wrong.
The mountain range suddenly began to tremble violently!
As if an earthquake were about to strike, cracks began to appear in the ground beneath their feet, and rubble swayed, as if something long dormant beneath the earth was about to burst forth!
"This...stop him from moving again immediately!"
Ying was shocked, not expecting that the Ghost Doctor had a backup plan.
Tianning went all out and delivered a chop to the guy's hand.
The person fainted on the spot and couldn't be moved.
But not far from them, the ground suddenly cracked open, and a terrifying monster, resembling a giant centipede, emerged from the ground, its eerie green eyes fixed on them, and disgusting, sticky liquid oozing from its mouth.
"run!"
It's unclear who spoke first, but the crowd immediately scattered.
Considering that they still needed to get the list from the Ghost Doctor, Yingyi took him along as well. The other children who were tied up were not so lucky. The giant centipede bit one of the children's bodies in two!
