Chapter 526: Subduing The Ghost

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

“Huh?” Shen Ying’s face was in total confusion. Only then did she realize that she didn’t seem to be lying where she slept last night. She blinked blankly. Never mind, she was too lazy to think. It’s not important!

Just when Lonemoon was about to give her some scolding, Fatty had already flown back hurriedly. “Master, the people in the city...” Once he touched the ground, he felt the array on the ground, and let out a sigh of relief. Good that Master discovered it first.

“What happened?” Lonemoon gave him a look. “Didn’t you all go to catch that trouble-making ghost? Why are the people in the city unable to have their souls return to their bodies?”

“That ghost probably realized danger, so it called out ghost mist and captured all of them into the dream.” said Fatty with an embarrassed face. “They unexpectedly broke the dream before time, those people’s souls didn’t have time to return, so...”

Lonemoon’s face fell. What was this? Were they actually plotting with the ghost?

“Master, we have little time. I’ve already let them watch over those people’s bodies outside the city. Let’s allow these people’s souls to return to the bodies first!”

“Yup.” Lonemoon nodded.

Fatty took out a Calabash Dharma artifact and opened it. He made hand seals while intoning spells. Soon, many live souls were seen to enter the Calabash in the form of flowing light. It took him a whole four hours, before he captured the last bit of live soul and sealed the top of the Calabash.

“Let’s go!” Lonemoon went up on his sword. “You too!” He took Shen Ying beside him casually.

Shen Ying, “...” Where was breakfast?

The bodies of the citizens were not far outside the city. From faraway, they saw many people lying on the ground. Three disciples were watching over them at the side. Seeing the three arriving, joy came to their faces and they came forward. “Exalted Master, you are all back.”

Fatty glanced over the three. “Where are the others? Why are only three of you here?” Jian Xing, Mushroom and Zhi Lin were actually all gone.

The three faces changed. They exchanged a look among themselves before replying, “Exalted Master, after you left, an evil ghost suddenly ran out. Miss Zhi Lin was caught by it, Uncle-Master Jian Xing and Mushroom both chased after it.”

Fatty’s face fell. He turned towards Lonemoon, “Master...”

“You stay here and help the people’s souls return, Shen Ying and I will go and take a look.” said Lonemoon. He grabbed Shen Ying and went off chasing after the aura of Jian Xing and others.

The two didn’t fly long when they suddenly felt their surroundings become very cold. In the mountain woods in front, large waves Ghost Qi concentrated, taking up the whole mountain top, impenetrable even by sunlight.

Lonemoon frowned. It was... about to ascend to Ghost King?

He flew down directly. Following the weak aura of the three, they came to the entrance of a cave. The entrance had half collapsed, as though somebody had fought here. Looking at the remnant Sword Qi in the surroundings, it was probably Jian Xing.

He drew out a bit of Immortal Qi to cover his whole body and dispel the Ghost Qi of the surroundings. Subconsciously he turned to say, “Shen Ying, the Ghost Qi is too thick here, you...” Before he finished, he turned and realized that all the Ghost Qi around them had stayed far away from her. It was a full two or three meters away, even further than his dispelling with Immortal Qi.

“Huh?” Shen Ying’s head tilted.

“... Nothing, let’s go inside!” What the f*ck!

Apparently with natural dispelling ability, how on earth did she get controlled by Ghost Qi last night?

They walked directly into that cave full of Ghost Qi. The Ghost Qi inside was even thicker, but with every step that Lonemoon took, the Ghost Qi around him was dispelled by his Immortal Qi. Though he could directly dispel all the Ghost Qi inside, he thought about the people further in and didn’t do so.

The inside of the cave was big and full of crossroads everywhere, like a natural maze. But there was no difficulty for Lonemoon. He swept with his divine perception, and the situation of the whole cave came clear. He walked right in the direction towards the three, with his only concern being the person behind him, who had no sense of direction and would turn the wrong way from time to time.

“Here!”

“Oh.”

When Lonemoon dragged back the person who turned wrongly for the ninth time, they were finally in the deepest end of the cave. The Ghost Qi around them was even thicker and mixed with a wave of bloody aura. Vaguely, sounds of fighting and ghost cries came from the front.

“It’s right in front!”

Lonemoon’s footsteps hastened, turning a big turn. Yet a pool of blood appeared in front of him, on which several skeletons floated. Above the pool of blood, a female ghost whose look was terrifying with rotten meat all over her face was fighting with Jian Xing.

That ghost was already halfway a Ghost King, and no weaker than a Nascent Soul cultivator, yet the Ghost Qi on its body was somewhat weak, as though it was badly injured. Obviously, it was interrupted at an important moment during ascension, therefore suffered from the backlash. Jian Xing at the side also suffered many injuries. There were bloodstains all over him, and there was Ghost Qi around his wounds.

As though noticing that a stronger aura had entered, the ghost panicked and couldn’t care much anymore. It released the Ghost Qi all over his body instantly, stopping Jian Xing’s attack. Its two claws went downward, sucking the blood in the pool dry. Its original terrifying look started changing back, and in an instant, it turned into a woman of extreme beauty, and the Ghost Qi on her body even became tens of times thicker.

It wanted to ascend forcefully! Jian Xing’s hand paused, shaken by the other party’s sudden increased suppression. Just as he was about to counter-attack, that Ghost King avoided him directly and rushed over in the direction of Lonemoon and Shen Ying.

“Master!” Jian Xing’s face changed. He directly activated spirit qi all over his body and made a sword wave with his entire body’s strength. In the next instant, he heard a sharp scream coming from that Ghost King, as it was hit directly. The Ghost Qi around its body dissipated in a moment, and the figure which just formed dissipated like it was broken. Yet in the middle of it, a ray of red light suddenly came out, rushing right in the direction of Shen Ying.

“Careful!” reminded Lonemoon subconsciously, just as he was about to act...

That red light actually stopped. Shen Ying was holding out one hand and grasping it tightly. That red light struggled hard in her hand like a loach, but however hard it tried, it couldn’t escape. It could only make a series of loud, screeching sounds.

Alright, he must have been stupid, to worry about a cheat.

“Hmm?” Shen Ying looked at that red light in curiosity and even flipped it left and right. That sharp sound became even louder, as though crying in pain.

“Exalted Master...” Jian Xing, whose strength was depleted, also walked over. His face was completely pale, and he looked like he had been through a hard fight. He looked down at the red light in Shen Ying’s hand. “This is the remnant soul of that ghost just now?”

“It should be.” Lonemoon nodded.

Jian Xing’s eyes darkened, and he said directly, “This ghost has done much harm. In case it recovers, even though it’s just a remnant soul, it should be destroyed as soon as possible.”

Lonemoon frowned and then looked up at him. “It is already a remnant soul, there’s no way it can recover. If we keep attacking, its soul will only dissipate into nothingness.”

“But...” Jian Xing was stunned. His face was full of confusion, as though he didn’t know how to deal with the matter.
