Dozens of Sword Qi hung in the air like this, even though these are ghosts, chaotic creatures devoid of consciousness, they could rely on their instincts to perceive the danger.

However, they had no feelings or emotions, felt no fear or dread.

Each Sword Qi pointed directly at the eye sockets of the ghosts. These sockets were much like two indented holes, and piercing any of them would undoubtedly disperse the ghost.

Lu Xun held the sword sheath in his left hand and hid his right hand in the sleeve of his black robe, then…

He snapped his fingers.

“Pop!”

In an instant, dozens of Sword Qi acted as if they had received an explicit command, piercing through each and every ghost one after another!

The Sword Qi moved incredibly fast, and it was not difficult for Lu Xun to control them with his current strength of divine sense and total spiritual power.

Each ghost was pierced through by the Sword Qi one after another!

Their dark essence began to distort and slowly dispersed in all directions.

Seeing Lu Xun racking up the kills, Mao Nanbei decided to leave all these auxiliary ghosts to him.

For her, battling one Ghost King was somewhat intriguing, but fighting these minor ghosts was quite uninteresting, she didn’t even bother to unsheathe her blade.

Within moments, Lu Xun had eliminated all the ghostly beings at an incredible speed, with each ghost providing him with 666 experience points. He started keeping a mental count of the number slain.

“77.”

“78.”

“79.”

All 79 ghosts, each one pierced by Lu Xun’s Sword Qi, granting him a total of 52614 experience points!

“That felt good.” Lu Xun put down the sword sheath, thinking to himself.

His area of divine sense perception wasn’t as broad as Mao Nanbei’s, so he asked, “Fourth Senior Sister, did we miss any?”

“No, all eliminated.”

The ghost qi and yin qi around them were slowly dissipating, but only dispersing and not truly vanishing.

And so, Mao Nanbei formed seals with both hands, preparing a spell to purify this lingering ghost qi.

In the meantime, the mouth of the sword sheath began to swirl with strong air currents, and the black rope on the sword sheath danced in mid-air, appearing to express joy. It was seemingly saying, “I’m getting started now!”

Then it absorbed all the surrounding ghost qi and yin qi, leaving not a shred behind.

Lu Xun wondered, “Didn’t you say you no longer needed the nourishment of yin qi after you absorbed all the yin qi from the Yin Bead?”

The black rope on the sword sheath rubbed against Lu Xun’s forearm, drawing circles on the back of his hand as though performing an affectionate gesture of satisfaction.

It appears it was simply indulging itself.

If you’ve been deprived for long, it’s always necessary to seize every opportunity to satisfy yourself.

Lu Xun and Mao Nanbei looked around and, after confirming there were no remaining issues, they returned to the paper crane.

Lu Xun didn’t rush to steer the paper crane into flight. Instead, he asked Mao Nanbei, “Fourth Senior Sister, did you notice?”

“Notice what?” Mao Nanbei flicked her cat’s ear and looked towards Lu Xun.

“When you were hacking at that Ghost King, did you notice anything unusual about its facial expression?”, Lu Xun asked as he furrowed his brows.

“Ah? I didn’t pay any attention, I was just focused on decapitating it.” Mao Nanbei gently shook her dual blades which had transformed back into a bell, she really hadn’t paid attention to those details.

She looked at Lu Xun and added, “Little Junior Brother, ghosts are devoid of consciousness, their expressions are always dull. Even if they possess certain instincts, they wouldn’t exhibit unusual behaviors.”

Speaking of this, she used the ghosts that Lu Xun had killed as an example, “Take the ghosts you just killed, for example, did you see any of them display fear?”

Lu Xun nodded. As an experienced gamer of ‘Heavenly Dust’, he knew this all too well.

“Could I have been mistaken?”, he thought to himself.

No, that couldn’t be. He was an Initial Cultivator. His vision should be flawless.

The paper crane took to the sky, and looking down one last time, Lu Xun still couldn’t shake his doubts.

As the paper crane quickly flew at high altitude, Lin Chan sat next to Lu Xun and gently held his hand writing out a message in his palm, “Master, I saw it too.”

As a bystander, she had seen it most clearly.

“You saw the Ghost King’s expression too?”, Lu Xun asked.

Lin Chan nodded and continued writing on Lu Xun’s palm, “When Fourth Senior Auntie decapitated it, it seemed to be afraid at the end.”

Mao Nanbei was sprawled on the paper crane, the little girl still retained some cat habits, she liked to lay around idly.

Turning her head to see Lu Xun, she asked, “What did Little Chan write?”

“She said she saw it too. Just as you decapitated the Ghost King, its face showed terror,” said Lu Xun.

“What! So, I’m the only one who didn’t notice?”, the little girl was slightly annoyed, feeling somewhat embarrassed.

Lu Xun:

Shouldn’t you be focusing on the reason why this Ghost King seemed to have unexpectedly developed some form of consciousness?

That’s the point!

“Fourth Senior Sister, shouldn’t we be considering the fact that there might be something wrong with this Ghost King?”, said Lu Xun patiently.

“It’s already dead, what’s there to think about?”, Mao Nanbei stopped laying around, she sat up straight, folding her arms across her petite chest, saying, “Who cares whether it had consciousness or not? It still couldn’t survive my single blade swipe.”

According to Mao Nanbei, one should face any problem with a single blade swipe! And if that doesn’t work, two swipes!

Lu Xun reluctantly praised, “Fourth Senior Sister, you are very domineering.”

Mao Nanbei hearing this, immediately got chuffed, a pair of cat ears stood straight up, appearing very spirited.

Lu Xun didn’t view things as casually as she did, but he also knew that pondering over it now would be of no use.

However, he would be more cautious about this issue, he continually felt that there was more to it than met the eye.

Especially given that in the former world, after the massive influx of gamers during open beta, they’ve killed numerous ghosts over the years. Weren’t those all simple-minded!

They never heard of any player encountering an emotional ghost.

But it should not be a big issue, right? If it is a significant matter, a message prompt should have appeared, triggering a mission, right?

Thinking this far, Lu Xun gave up pondering over it. He steered the paper crane continuing towards the direction of the Three Thousand Mountains.

At the same time, in the sky at the extreme north, a rift suddenly tore open.

It looked like a narrow eye had opened up in the sky!

This phenomenon appeared and disappeared within the blink of an eye, with no cultivators in the northern region noticing.

Or perhaps it could be said; with their vision, they were unable to see this!

It was only the gentleman drinking tea in front of the Small Study at the peak of the back mountain of the Demon Sect, who slowly put down his teacup.

“Sir, what’s wrong?” Third Senior Brother Zhuge Lai Fu noticed a hint of unusual expression on the gentleman’s face.

The gentleman’s orchid finger patted lightly on the wooden table in front of the Small Study, while his eyes glanced towards the north, his thoughts a mystery.
