Chapter 628: Let them do it themselves
"In short, I'm not worried about anything. If Young Master Gu said he would handle it, then he will handle it well."
Bai Feier said something indifferently, then stopped paying attention to the matter, closed her eyes to rest, and waited for time to pass.
Li Feichan opened her mouth, but hesitated to speak.
Finally, she sighed and closed her eyes.
There's nothing we can do but wait. If they run around now, their fate will be no better than death. Even though it's broad daylight, this place is still fraught with danger!
If that fellow Daoist Gu is truly as powerful as Bai Feier described, then it would actually be a blessing in disguise for her.
"...Let's keep this lamp on for now." Bai Feier opened her eyes again, looked at the gradually darkening sky, thought for a moment, and decided to use the Primordial Soul Lamp.
Since Young Master Gu gave her the treasure, she has to use it.
During her time in the Forbidden Zone of Dead Souls, she had learned to constantly observe her surroundings and prepare accordingly. In fact, the Forbidden Zone of Dead Souls was not peaceful during the day either; sometimes it would suddenly fall into darkness, blocking out the sunlight, and those hidden wandering ghosts would come out to roam.
For example now.
She looked at the lamp in her hand and silently recited a mantra. Then, the light from the soul lamp spread out and enveloped them.
The light looked unremarkable, and it wasn't even particularly bright.
It's just too ordinary!
This thing doesn't look like a top-tier treasure at all.
Li Feichan was highly skeptical; could this thing really stop the attack of vengeful ghosts? "Buzz~~"
The soul lamp trembled.
Li Feichan suddenly felt a momentary dizziness, but after shaking her head, the feeling disappeared.
strangeness.
She realized that she hadn't rested for too long and was extremely stressed, almost to the point of losing focus. But there was nothing she could do. Her life now was completely different from before. Before, she was the top prodigy of a major sect, with her master and sect backing her up.
Now, she is just a pitiful wretch who has been branded a sinner by the Crimson Dragon Immortal. To survive, she hides her identity and endures humiliation for revenge.
Forget it.
So much agonizing over it.
Why don't you lie down and rest first?
Just then, a thick layer of "dark clouds" drifted in from the horizon! "They're right below!"
Wang Da Lieshi's gaze was fixed on a certain spot in Mingyuan Mountain. From his high vantage point, he could already see four figures there!
They're all alive!
Moreover, his strength is really poor; he's just a cultivator who hasn't even reached the Immortal Rank.
But there is a light there!
That lamp... could it be the supreme treasure that Lord Wuwang spoke of?
Although Wang Da Lieshi obeyed the orders of the Death Soul Witch King without hesitation, he also had a question: that broken bronze lamp didn't look like a treasure at all!
"Great Hunter, there are only four living people down there."
"It's unlikely they did it, right?"
at this time.
Questions arose within the group. Wang, the Great Hunter, could see it, and so could the other hunters; the four people below posed no threat whatsoever. They claimed to possess some supreme treasure, yet they couldn't sense any aura of it.
Even the weakest hunter has pseudo-immortal cultivation, how could he possibly be killed by four mortal cultivators?
"Never mind that, go, capture those four guys alive and torture them thoroughly!"
Wang Da Lieshi narrowed his eyes and said coldly.
He was a little confused, but what could he do? They had come all the way here following the "evidence," and they were going to interrogate those four guys down there no matter what!
Even if they are innocent, it doesn't matter.
In any case, they are all food to replenish the power of the Witch King, so it doesn't matter whether they die sooner or later.
"As ordered!"
The two hunters immediately accepted the order, then transformed into two streaks of black wind and sped downwards. "Hmm?"
Bai Feier opened her eyes and looked at the "dark cloud" in the sky. She squinted and knew that it was a group of cultivators of unknown origin. Looking closer, she saw two figures rapidly enlarging!
They've come for Mount Mingyuan.
Or rather, they came specifically for them.
"...What do these guys want?" Li Feichan asked, frowning.
They had all actually seen people dressed like that before.
Bai Feier has seen them every night for the past few days, and Li Feichan also saw one last night. Their strength is absolutely unfathomable, at least they can't see through them, and they seem to specifically appear at night to hunt down vengeful ghosts and remnants of souls!
Previously, Bai Feier had also wanted to strike up a conversation with them, since it was rare to see cultivators who weren't ghosts, and who were so skilled at killing ghosts, almost as if it were a formula. This was quite unusual.
But these black-robed men carrying lanterns and chains merely sneered at her, offering no reply and ignoring her words.
Their eyes looked as if they were looking at a dead person.
And after that first contact.
Bai Feier consciously paid attention to these men in black robes because she always felt that these guys weren't exactly good people either. They were enemies of the Wilderness Ghosts, but that didn't mean they were her friends.
However, these men in black robes actually appeared during the day?
interesting.
"Those four?"
"Stop on Mount Mingyuan," the hunter said to his companion.
"Hmm, let's capture them and report back to the Great Hunter... Ugh, let them come along too. My back aches from last night's work, I don't want to move."
The other hunter looked unwell and pounded his waist.
Harvesting vengeful ghosts is not an easy task. Some vengeful ghosts are quite powerful, with the cultivation level of immortals, and there are quite a few of them. Most of the time, each hunter is hunting mortal-level vengeful ghosts, but they will always encounter immortal-level vengeful ghosts. Once they encounter one, it will be a battle that requires some effort.
"You're no good. You've been working for the Witch King for so long, and your health is only getting worse, isn't it?"
"Cut the nonsense."
The hunter silently looked down.
"Hey, you four, come here."
"Who are you?"
Li Feichan stared warily at the two hunters in the air.
"We are the hunters of the Witch King!"
The hunter looked down at them arrogantly: "Something happened at the Witch King's Palace last night, and the four of you are all involved. Quickly come with us to see the Great Hunter."
"Hurry up, I'm a bit tired right now. If you cooperate honestly, you'll suffer less later." The hunter's tone was quite unfriendly.
"..."
The four women exchanged glances, and they could all sense the tension in each other.
The Hunter of the Dead Soul Witch King?
