Chapter 1951: Chapter 60: Seizing by Force
The Vine Grinding Ghost King was the first to awaken from this fear, unable to resist glancing at Chong Hua.
Those golden double pupils, with an air of overlooking, were particularly conspicuous.
âIn the Three Realms⊠are there such features?â
A trace of doubt arose in his heart.
The general appearances of the various worlds and races are similar, but when it comes to specific details, each is different.
Though double pupils are peculiar, he just regarded it as a characteristic of a particular race.
The only strange thing is, he had never heard of any cultivator in the Three Realms having such traits.
But if he is not native to the Three Realms, then what exactly is the identity of this Bird Taoist?
Being able to singlehandedly massacre Red Sky Palace, even if Yun Zaitian took some people away, they still had no confidence to take down Red Sky Palace without a scratch.
However, this line of thought did not last long, as a low voice transmission from Ghost King Xicai slightly shook his heart:
âThis Bird Taoistâs origins are unknown, his strength extremely formidable, seeming like heâs from the Three Realms, but also not like one of them⊠even the Red Sky Palace fell to his hands, perhaps we should retreat for now!â
âRetreat?â
The thought instinctively appeared in the heart of the Vine Grinding Ghost King, but then he thought of a fatal problem:
âWhat if Qiao Wensong encounters him and exposes our words, then what?â
âEscape today, but not forever!â
âThisâŠâ
Upon hearing this, Ghost King Xicai couldnât help but furrow his brows.
At this moment, Chong Hua, who had been quietly watching them, finally slowly opened his narrowed eyes, speaking suddenly, his voice like clashing metal, yet with a careless tone:
âTell me, why have the people from the Jade Pot Realm sought me out?â
The atmosphere, which was already silent and tense, lifted the hearts of the Five Ghost Kings. Chong Huaâs sudden speech without any warning further shook their defenses.
They exchanged glances.
After a brief hesitation, the Vine Grinding Ghost King, with a steely determination, looked at the Corpse-digging Ghost King and spoke:
âYou speak.â
The Corpse-digging Ghost Kingâs eyes instantly widened, as if about to devour the Vine Grinding Ghost King.
But feeling Chong Huaâs faint gaze, the Corpse-digging Ghost King forced a smile, hesitated briefly in his heart, and spoke softly:
âHehe⊠Do you still remember when you came to my Hundred Ghost Mountain last time and killed one of my descendants?â
Chong Hua looked at him expressionlessly.
The Corpse-digging Ghost King quickly waved his hand:
âDonât misunderstand, donât misunderstand, thereâs no need for misunderstandings, just a mere descendant, itâs nothing, but he held a copper bell, engraved with our Hundred Ghost Mountainâs secret technique for refining Divine Corpses⊠The Jade Pot Realm wants to ask for this copper bellâŠâ
âCopper bell?â
Chong Hua slightly furrowed his brows, realizing:
âThe Corpse-folding?â
âYes, yes! Exactly the Corpse-folding! You have a really good memory!â
The Corpse-digging Ghost King immediately praised him highly.
But in his heart, he secretly wiped non-existent cold sweat.
The other Four Great Ghost Kings couldnât help but glance at the Corpse-digging Ghost King, a hint of burning anger in their eyes, realizing that the Corpse-folding, one of the Three Divine Corpses, had already been leaked out.
So what was all their busyness and even offending the Jade Pot Realm for?
Although this Bird Taoist cannot compare to the Jade Pot Realm, it undoubtedly made the four a bit angry.
However, there was no time to blame the Corpse-digging Ghost King now, so the Vine Grinding Ghost King quickly added:
âWe are insignificant and powerless, just a small force, how could we refuse when the people of the Jade Pot Realm come asking?â
âHaving no choice, we could only reveal your existence⊠But the Corpse-digging Ghost King is your friend, we naturally couldnât truly betray a friend, so when we noticed you heading towards the Red Sky Palace, the five of us immediately rushed over to inform you of this matter. If there really is a conflict with the Red Sky Palace, even if itâs a fight to the death with them, we want to protect you⊠We hope you can forgive us, Taoist Friend.â
He spoke sincerely, and the other four Ghost Kings repeatedly nodded in agreement.
Yun Qi, at the side, showed a trace of astonishment and anger in his eyes. He turned his head, glaring fiercely at the Corpse-digging Ghost King, teeth gritted:
âSo it was because of you!â
He didnât dare to resent Chong Hua, as the latterâs indifference and cruelty filled him with dread.
But if he couldnât resent Chong Hua, could he not resent the Corpse-digging Ghost King?
The Corpse-digging Ghost King, however, didnât care about his gaze, continuing to smile at Chong Hua.
Facing the Five Ghost Kingsâ eager goodwill.
Chong Hua merely chuckled softly, casually tidying his sleeve, toying with the Kirin pattern on it, and said nonchalantly:
âIs that so, what about the Curse that befell me over a hundred years ago?â
The atmosphere instantly stiffened.
Yun Qiâs eyes darted, observing the expressions of Xicai and the others, and quickly guessed part of it.
He immediately spoke coldly:
âHundred Ghost Mountain holds the Curse Kill technique, which can curse the opponent from afar, sometimes not even needing to know the personâs name or other information, just having seen them is enough to complete the curse killing!â
âYun Qi, you have a death wish!â
The Brahma Ghost King shouted angrily.
Yun Qi simply sneered, straightening his neck, as if daring the other to make a move.
The Brahma Ghost King, though reckless, wasnât foolish. He glanced at Yun Qi and turned his head away with hatred.
Upon hearing Yun Qiâs words, a look of surprise appeared in Chong Huaâs eyes:
âThereâs such a curse?â
âWhat conditions are needed to cast it?â
Though he was not skilled in curses, his main body had extensive knowledge, and curses were a kind of Divine Pattern Rites, so he was not unfamiliar with them, knowing that curses, though weird and hard to defend, had many requirements.
