“In that battle, the entire Wu River was dyed red with blood!”
Xiao Yuanjing continued, “I must say that the middle-aged couple’s subordinates are very loyal. They risked their lives to injure more than half of the powerhouses of Shang Santian.
The middle-aged couple was still protecting a little girl despite being surrounded by five Emperor Stage cultivators.”
At this point, his expression was somewhat ferocious, “The powerhouses of Shang Santian wanted to capture that little girl. Who would’ve thought that at the crucial moment, that old man who bought the medicine risked his life to protect that little girl and escape?
In order to prevent us from pursuing them, the couple used a Bloodstain Technique to turn the entire warship into a ghost ship. The woman even used a curse technique to kill four Emperor Stage cultivators. Only one Emperor Stage cultivator managed to escape alive!”
Everyone was shocked.
Emperor Stage was the level that they had pursued their entire lives, yet the couple had still managed to kill four Emperor Stage cultivators despite being severely injured!
“After that, that warship turned into a ghost ship and disappeared from the Wu River once again. When the entire Shang Santian chose to forget about it, who would have thought that it would appear again 20 years later? And it became a cycle.”
A smile appeared at the corner of Xiao Yuanjing’s lips, “Every time the ghost ship appears, Shang Santian will send people to board it to investigate.”
Yuan Qitai and the rest had ugly expressions on their faces, “So the rumors about the ghost ship being able to revive the dead, or even lead to the netherworld, are all false?”
“Of course it’s fake!”
Xiao Yuanjing snickered disdainfully, “That were just rumors that I deliberately spread in Shang Santian. The purpose is to use you ants to investigate the ghost ship and consume your strength!”
The old Celestial Master of Mount Longhu, Zhang Wuming, was on the verge of fainting, said, “Damn it, damn it. Shang Santian is simply too vicious!”
Over the past hundred years, many powerhouses of China’s secular world had mistakenly believed the rumors of ghost ships and boarded them like ducks. They had lost their lives for nothing, including their senior brother!
Luo Tianya’s eyes flickered as he said coldly, “We’re also from Shang Santian. How come we’ve no idea of that?”
“All of you aside, even the three sects and four groups, including the Sword Sect, might not know the whole story!”
Xiao Yuanjing said disdainfully, “I’m not afraid to tell you that the Martial Emperor who escaped alive back then was my Xiao Clan’s patriarch.”
Tang Yiming frowned and said, “In that case, the little girl and the old madman we’ve been looking for are the survivors on the ghost ship?”
“That’s right!”
Xiao Yuanjing openly admitted, “It turns out that after that battle more than a hundred years ago, that old thing actually hid on the ghost ship with that little girl. After so many years, all the people who boarded the ghost ship in Shang Santian were killed by that old thing.”
Ye Chen said slowly, “If that’s the case, why did those two walk out of the ghost ship 20 years ago?”
Logically speaking, since Qianqian and the Grandpa Sun he spoke of were safe on the ghost ship, why did they still have to leave the ship? Could it be related to the Ancient Desolate Realm Qin Yan spoke of?
“Because that old thing is crazy!”
Xiao Yuanjing smiled noncommittally, “You can say that the old man’s master died in battle because of him. That’s why the old man couldn’t accept it and went insane. It’s not hard to understand what a lunatic would do.”
Luo Shuiyao looked at the faces on the wall, her pretty face ashen, “Xiao, then why is your Xiao Clan so vicious that you won’t even let off the powerhouses of Shang Santian?”
“That’s simple!”
Xiao Yuanjing slowly opened his hands and looked at his ten slender fingers, “Because 20 years ago, a powerful cultivator from my Xiao Clan discovered a shocking secret after boarding the ghost ship. In order to keep this secret, we had no choice but to let the others stay on the ship forever.”
When everyone heard that, they were both angry and resentful.
Ye Chen’s eyes flickered as he said, “That’s why you’ve been causing trouble ever since we boarded the ship. If I’m not wrong, you were the one who caused the Bai family member’s death when the lantern was suddenly extinguished, right?”
“You’re quite smart.”
Xiao Yuanjing looked at him with a hint of admiration in his eyes as he said, “That’s right, I was the one who caused all of this. My goal was to create a panic, and not only that, but I also forged Xiao Buyi’s fake message so that everyone would suspect that you were a ghost, thereby reducing your power.”
As he said that, he looked at Ye Chen with fear in his eyes, “However, to my surprise, an ant like you who rose to power in the secular world has the ability to threaten me.”
The elderly man with the sword said with an enraged expression, “In other words, when I first set foot on the second floor of the ghost ship, I was also knocked unconscious by your people and thrown into the secret chamber? No wonder you didn’t kill me. You wanted me to draw out Xiao Buyi’s fake message to mislead everyone.”
Xiao Yuanjing grinned coldly, “It’s a pity that you guys found out too late!”
“Xiao, you’re not just any kind of vicious person!”
Tang Yiming clicked his tongue in wonder. After shaking his head, an extreme killing intent suddenly shot out from his eyes, “I’m very curious. Why do you dare admit your actions in front of everyone? Could it be that you’re really confident enough to withstand the rage of all of us?”
As his voice fell, countless killing intent swept out, locking onto him!
“No, no, no…”
Xiao Yuanjing suddenly laughed, “Because I have a backup plan!”
As soon as he said that, before anyone could react, a black shadow shot out from the wall behind them. The shadow grabbed Luo Shuiyao, who was closest to him.
The entire thing was completed in an instant. By the time everyone realized what had happened, Luo Shuiyao had already been captured by that figure and brought to Xiao Yuanjing’s side.
Luo Shuiyao was terrified, “Brother!”
“Bastard!”
Luo Tianya’s expression changed, and after a frenzied roar, an extremely threatening aura erupted from his body, “Xiao Yuanjing, you’re courting death!”
“Don’t move, don’t you dare move!”
Xiao Yuanjing put on a plastic smile and said, “Luo Tianya, I know you’re very powerful, but don’t forget that your sister is in my hands now. If you move, I’ll kill her immediately!”
The figure beside him seemed to be an old man. However, his entire body was extremely dried up, as if there was no moisture at all. He was like a corpse. His face was black, and his eyes were red. A torrential murderous aura emanated from his body.
“A Pseudo Emperor!”
Tang Yiming’s expression changed drastically when he sensed the aura coming from the opponent, “Tianya, this is a Pseudo Emperor!”
“That’s not all!”
Master Yizhen cried out in shock, “He isn’t a human, but a corpse puppet, a corpse puppet with Pseudo Emperor’s combat strength!”
Everyone’s scalps went numb!
No one expected Xiao Yuanjing to have such a trick up his sleeve. He had the help of a Pseudo Emperor zombie!
It seemed everything that happened before was done by this zombie in secret!
