Chapter 551 - 549: We Meet Again!

The successful resurrection of Tongtai left Yang Qingshu and Anlin overwhelmed with excitement.

Naturally, they didn’t notice that besides the three of them and one body, there was another person present at the scene.

This person was none other than the mastermind, Lu Heng.

Earlier, Lu Heng had been pondering over what kind of body he should prepare for his second senior brother.

Unexpectedly, his second senior brother’s friend Tongtai had been killed by his second uncle...

At that time, he had speculated that, given his second senior brother’s character, he would likely request to resurrect Tongtai.

Resurrecting the dead, he had never done that before.

So he had to be fully prepared.

At the moment of Tongtai’s death, he used the Soul-Calling Banner to capture Tongtai’s soul.

At the same time, he utilized the newly learned Artifact Refining Technique to fuse his "Corpse Control Spell" into the second statue.

He also tampered with Tongtai’s body.

The Soul-Calling Banner that captured Tongtai’s soul was fused into Tongtai’s body using the Artifact Refining Technique.

To make Tongtai possess some Extraordinary Powers like Tie Xiong, he sealed an additional Blood Mosquito larva.

In this way, the second statue would control the corpse.

The Soul-Calling Banner inside the body would release Tongtai’s soul, ensuring it wouldn’t dissipate and would remain within the body.

The Blood Mosquito larva would grant the body Extraordinary Powers through blood-sucking, preventing the body from decaying.

Combining these three elements, they created a creature that possessed human intelligence, yet was still a corpse, and also had Extraordinary Powers.

Anyway, at least it’s been resurrected, hasn’t it?

Never mind if it’s neither human nor corpse, the fact that it could be brought back is already remarkable.

Moreover, this aligns perfectly with the classic villain image he crafted.

Seeing that everything was in place, Lu Heng activated an Earth Escape Talisman and vanished without a trace.

...

On the other side, the three reunited members with one corpse were ready to leave and give Master Banhan a surprise.

Just as Yang Qingshu stepped out of the ruins, several bright lights suddenly flashed from ahead.

The sudden glare made the eyes of him, Song Qing, and Anlin sting, causing them to step back involuntarily.

"Yang Qingshu, you’re hiding secrets, huh!"

A familiar voice reached the ears of Yang Qingshu and the other three.

The owner of the voice was none other than Kunshi Qinawa.

"It’s you?"

Yang Qingshu was slightly taken aback upon hearing the voice.

Once his eyes adjusted a little, he squinted to get a better look.

He discovered that the bright lights were merely the high beams of a few cars.

Standing in front of the cars was Kunshi Qinawa, along with a dozen of his bodyguards.

Seeing their smug expressions, Yang Qingshu felt a slight chill in his heart.

This old fox must have sent someone to tail him, otherwise, how could he have shown up here so quickly?

Fortunately, the resurrection ritual had already been completed.

If they had arrived a moment later, the old fox might have interrupted it.

Meanwhile, Kunshi Qinawa was also sizing up Yang Qingshu.

As for his niece Anlin and Yang Qingshu’s girlfriend Song Qing, he simply overlooked them.

Two women, after all, didn’t warrant much attention.

"Yang Qingshu, we meet again! You really are a deceptive little brat!"

"Back at Sheng Mei Police Station, you kept saying you didn’t know anything, fooling the three of us."

"If I hadn’t prepared in advance and had people follow you quietly, I might not have caught you!"

Kunshi Qinawa snorted coldly.

Yet, there was still a trace of smugness in his eyes.

After all, the old are indeed wiser!

No matter how crafty Yang Qingshu was, what use was it?

He was still caught red-handed, wasn’t he?

"Boss, is the thing that kid’s holding the statue you’ve been looking for?"

At this moment, one of the bodyguards standing by asked abruptly.

"Hmm?"

Kunshi Qinawa quickly looked down upon hearing this.

Sure enough, what Yang Qingshu was holding was the very statue he had been yearning for day and night!

Just now, he had been so engrossed in his moment of triumph that he hadn’t paid attention to what Yang Qingshu was holding.

Upon seeing the statue, a greedy fire immediately ignited in Kunshi Qinawa’s eyes.

He barked coldly, "Yang Qingshu, if you’re wise, hand over the statue to me at once!"

"If you cooperate, I might begrudgingly spare the three of you a path to live."

"Otherwise, I’ll kill you all and still take the statue!"

Hearing this, Yang Qingshu couldn’t help frowning.

Before he could speak, Anlin spoke up first: "Second Uncle, what have you become now?"

"Ha!"

Kunshi Qinawa sneered hearing this.

He said leisurely, "What have I become?"

"Once I have that statue and possess Extraordinary Power, I’ll be the emperor of Talan!"

"By then, the Qinawa family will rule all of Talan with me, even all of Southeast Asia! Isn’t that a good thing?"

"I can bring the family centuries, even millennia of glory and honor. Isn’t that enough?"

He paused slightly before continuing with disdain, "As for you..."

"As a descendant of the Qinawa family, you’ve betrayed us by colluding with a Dragon Country person!"

Anlin’s eyes turned red instantly hearing this.

She gritted her teeth and retorted, "Brother Qingshu is a good man!"

"Unlike you, so heartless and shameless!"

"Not only did you kill my brother, now you want to kill Brother Qingshu, you’re simply not human!"

Hearing these words, Kunshi Qinawa’s eyes flashed with a fierce glint: "I originally considered sparing your life for your father’s sake."

"But now, it seems you’re determined to stand with outsiders!"

"In that case, I might as well send you to join your brother..."

Just as he finished speaking, a figure suddenly emerged from behind Yang Qingshu.

"Sec... Second Uncle..."

"Are you... looking for me?"

The figure’s speech was awkward, but comprehensible.

Kunshi Qinawa frowned deeply at this.

But when he recognized the figure, he was instantly stunned.

"Tong... Tongtai?"

"How... how is it you?"

Kunshi Qinawa’s eyes widened in disbelief.

Tongtai was supposed to be dead!

A funeral was even scheduled for tomorrow.

How could he suddenly appear before him now?

"Oh? Something’s wrong!"

Under the strong light, he scrutinized carefully and noticed that Tongtai’s exposed skin was entirely an iron-blue shade, completely lacking the healthy redness of a living person.

This seemed just like a corpse suddenly coming back to life.

Corpse... Resurrection...

Realization dawned on Kunshi Qinawa as he pieced it together...
