Chapter 1078 – Ghost Couples
An Zheng swept his hand across the table, sweeping down everything except the spirit tablets. He placed Li Qingfeng’s head on the table, found a few incense sticks to burn and inserted them. Outside, there were more than a hundred disciples of Azure Wisdom Sect lying on the ground in a mess, unable to move. It was only when An Zheng heard the groans of those guys that he remembered that there was a group of scum who had not been dealt with.
“Exterminate all evil.”
An Zheng turned around and picked up a sword from the ground. He cut the heads of the Azure Wisdom Sect disciples off one by one, killing them one by one until their hands were covered in blood. After killing everyone, An Zheng piled all the heads on the spirit tablets, and used his blood to write the words on the white wall of Azure Wisdom Sect, blood debt.
“I have things to do. Thank you, Master Luo.”
An Zheng kneeled down and kowtowed three times. After walking a few steps, he suddenly remembered that he should have searched through the entire Azure Wisdom Sect, even if it was to find a few low-leveled defensive magic tools first. The Azure Wisdom Sect took up a large amount of space, and was, after all, the home of a very brilliant and powerful sect. He searched through the rows of rooms, but to no avail. An Zheng had no choice but to return and rummage through the corpses for a while. He found many low level spatial artifacts, which were still useful.
As for those magic tools, An Zheng did not really like them. In this era, the cultivation aura was dense and the cultivation realm of the cultivators was strong, but there was no difference in the grade of the magic tools. Thinking about the Da Xi era, how it waity that he could not use his true power with his powerful Purple-Rank tools.
He had collected a total of more than a hundred red-ranked magic tools, rummaged through Li Qingfeng’s corpse and found a spatial artifact with Golden-Rank, but An Zheng’s current Cultivation Power was not strong enough to forcefully remove the Qi that Li Qingfeng had left behind, so he could only wait until he was strong enough.
There were too few Azure Wisdom Sect s, only more than a hundred of them. Thus, the amount of houses that were repaired was only a fifth of the original buildings. That previously powerful sect had already been in decline, and An Zheng didn’t know if he could still find anything. But since he was already here, what if he found something?
The house at the back was severely damaged. An Zheng pushed open a room and a pungent smell of smoke entered his nose. He sneezed a few times. The room was covered in a thick layer of dust and cobwebs. However, An Zheng realized the strangeness of the situation, the destruction of the sect should have been extremely sudden, because the house had still been destroyed as it was at the time.
There were even dishes on the table, all made of precious jade and worth a lot of money. Judging from the leftover items inside, the people who lived here were suddenly taken away while they were eating. At that time, there should have been two people in this room. There werotal of two pairs of chopsticks on the table. An Zheng walked around the room and opened a cabinet. All of the clothes inside were blown away by the wind and shattered into pieces.
Looking at these things, An Zheng suddenly thought of something … The Azure Wisdom Sect had occupied this place foeriod of time already, but why was there no search for the houses at the back? If he had, the room would not have remained the same.
Li Qingfeng’s character, was naturally not because of morals … Therefore, within these rooms that had not yet been opened, there might be some sort of danger that even Li Qingfeng was afraid of. This was the only reasonable explanation.
Just as he was thinking about this, the door closed with a creak. Soon after, An Zheng saw the clothes fragments fly up and regroup to restore their original appearance, and the door of the cabinet closed itself off. Everything in the room was back to normal … The only difference was that there was an additional An Zheng.
“Cough cough …” Senior, please forgive me if I offend you. I was just curious so I came in. I’ll take my leave now. ”
An Zheng spoke as he retreated. Anyone would be afraid of something that couldn’t be explained clearly, even if it was a cultivator. When he reached the door, An Zheng found that the door could not be opened. It was at this moment that An Zheng noticed that the food on the table, which could no longer be identified as food, was once again emitting heat. On the biggest plate in the middle was a bloody head with its eyes still open.
An Zheng was shocked, he retreated a step: “This is not fun.”
The dishes on the table were filled with hearts, intestines, arms, and thighs that were still dripping with blood. An Zheng noticed the clothes on the corpses. It was obvious that they were the clothes worn by the disciples of the Azure Wisdom Sect.
In other words, it was not as if the people from the Azure Wisdom Sect had never come in, but that the person who came in was already dead. The broken limbs on the plate belonged to the Azure Wisdom Sect disciple who was dismembered at that time, and the one who came in now was himself. The next time someone came in, the corpse on the plate might be his …
An Zheng fiercely opened the door, but the wooden door that was supposed to be in ruins could not be opened.
“You must be hungry. I’ll treat you to a meal.”
The voice that suddenly came out from the house made An Zheng’s scalp tingle. He suddenly turned his head, and saw a lady wearing a colorful dress standing there. Her face was as white as paper, and her eyes were empty. She expressionlessly pointed at the corpses on the table and said, “Come and eat, I just made them.”
An Zheng shook his head: “Senior, stop joking, alright?”
The woman’s expression suddenly changed. She opened her mouth and two black fangs extended out. Two green ghost flames appeared in her eye sockets.
“You’re not eating?!”
She raised a finger and pointed it at An Zheng. The fingernail on her finger was growing at a speed visible to the naked eye. An Zheng retreated a few steps, and his back bumped against the wooden door as he felt waves of coldness behind him. An Zheng extended his hand out, planning to push open the door again, but after feeling around for a while, he felt that something wasn’t right. He turned around and saw a man in white clothes standing behind him. His face was pale and his body was stiff.
An Zheng said: “If the two of you have any grievances, then you shouldn’t make it difficult for the innocent, right?”
The expression on the man’s face changed as he muttered to himself, “Grief?” Grief … Our Great Li Empire was exterminated for no reason. The crimes of the Immortal Teacher’s Estate were exposed, but now, we are still at large … If you can help us take revenge, we are willing to do anything. ”
An Zheng was startled: “Immortal Teacher’s Estate?”
“That’s right!”
The lady mournfully shouted: “It’s the Immortal Teacher’s Estate! Those demons, they will all diorrible death! ”
An Zheng sighed, “I seem to understand a little why Azure Wisdom Sect chose to stay here. The Immortal Teacher’s Estate exterminating the Great Li Sect back then was also for a few reasons. The first reason was because the Great Li Sect violated the rules set by the Immortal Teacher’s Estate. However, since they were able to obtain the qualifications to establish their own sect from the Immortal Teacher’s Estate, the people of the Great Li Sect must know what they should do. Secondly, the Dali Sect must have obtained some kind of great treasure, to the point where Immortal Teacher’s Estate had to obtain it. Thirdly, the Dali Sect may have found out some information about the Immortal Teacher’s Estate s, which destroyed the Dali Sect. Seniors, was my speculation correct? ”
The zombie-looking man looked disappointed. “It’s all because of the Holy Embryo.”
“What is the Holy Embryo?”
An Zheng asked.
The woman said coldly: “Don’t think that I don’t know what you’re thinking. You must be someone from the Immortal Teacher’s Estate.
“I am not, those people from the Azure Wisdom Sect are, but I have already killed them all. There is enmity between them and I have come here to seek revenge. ”
An Zheng explained briefly, and the woman’s expression changed: “Good Water Village? The Good Water Village is a village that has existed for more than two thousand years. The villagers were simple yet kind, yet they were all killed … ”
The man sighed, “The day that the Immortal Teacher’s Estate exists, the mortal world will never have peace.”
The woman said, “I feel like the people outside are all dead, so I’ll believe you for now … The husband and wife were the founders of the Dali Sect. He is my husband, Xiao Sheng, and I am Ye Lan. A few hundred years ago, my wife and I were out on a trip when we found the Holy Embryo in a branch of Mount Kunlun. It was said that when the primordial era began, the primordial energy split, some rose to the heavens, some fell to the earth. The purest origin energy would be born in the earth, forming a Holy Embryo. Once the sacred embryo matured and emerged, it would become an expert on the level of immortal emperors. And whoever obtains it before the Holy Embryo matures, will be able to absorb the aura inside the Holy Embryo to strengthen their own Cultivation Power. ”
“When the sacred embryo matures and the blood vessels are connected, it will become the greatest assistance. When that time comes, the Holy Embryo will be able to work with the person it has given you. Do you think there is anything else that you can’t do in this world? The two of us were surprised and frightened after we got the sacred womb. If the news about the Holy Embryo were to leak out, the Immortal Teacher’s Estate would come knocking sooner or later. “The immortal palace will definitely not allow anything that could threaten the immortal palace to exist. The sacred embryo will definitely be taken away, and our Great Li Sect will definitely suffer a calamity.”
“It’s all my fault.”
The woman’s face was filled with guilt, “I was too greedy. Xiao Sheng had always advised me not to take it. Even if I didn’t want it, I might as well leave it in Mount Kunlun after dripping blood. But I am greedy, I want to absorb the heaven and earth essence from the Holy Embryo to increase the cultivation level of our couple, if I can do that, why would I be afraid of the Immortal Teacher’s Estate? If the two of us were to reach the Immortal Emperor Realm, the immortal palace would also have to be placed in a trembling position … That’s why I lied to Xiao Sheng. I said that I left the Holy Embryo in the cave of Mount Kunlun, but actually secretly brought it back with me. ”
“I can only blame myself for trusting others too lightly. At that time, our eldest disciple was an orphan. He had originally thought that since they were of the same mind, everything would be left to him in the future. Thus, he told him about the matter regarding the Holy Embryo. We, husband and wife, would never have thought that the beast would actually go to the Immortal Teacher’s Estate to inform on us! ”
The man walked over and put his arm around the woman’s shoulders, “I can’t blame you all. Actually, I knew that you brought the thing back with you, and since you wanted it that much, I would not be happy if I kept stopping you. When you want to tell him, if I were to stop you, this would not be a disaster. ”
An Zheng continued: “That’s why the Great Li Sect provoked the calamity of the annihilation of their sect. The grievances between you husband and wife will not disperse...”
“No, it’s not that we can’t disperse our resentment!”
The woman mournfully shouted, “It’s us, we’re trapped here by that beast … That beast that betrayed us at that time should have already become the Celestial Patrolling Master of the Immortal Teacher’s Estate. At that time, there werotal of two people who sold us out, and one of them was called Li Qingfeng.
An Zheng was startled: “Li Qingfeng? The sect master of the Azure Wisdom Sect? He has already been killed by me! ”
“Alright!”
The woman screamed and burst into tears, “Is that beast dead? Is he finally dead? ”
The man put his arm around her shoulders and said, “The cycle of the heavens, I said that the two of them will definitely suffer retribution …”
The woman cried for a long time before she recovered. Suddenly, she knelt down. “Thank you.”
An Zheng immediately wanted to help her up, but when his hands came in contact with her, he actually went through her. An Zheng finally realised that these two were both ghosts.
“If possible, I hope that you can continue to help me take revenge and kill that beast. I am willing to tell you the news about the Holy Embryo aoken of gratitude … That beast is called Shang Jiu Yun! ”
