Chapter 757 - His Highness Cool Slap In The Face (2/2)
If compared to Baili Jia Jue’s elegant and calm disposition, the others were not in their right minds. They withdrew their swords and started getting rid of the weird feathers as they were afraid of coming in contact with anything filthy.
Out of their expectation, the feathers disappeared in the air, leaving no trace behind just as they lifted their hands.
“What’s the matter?” Ni Hu had never come across such a strange situation. He trembled out of trepidation as he thought that the feathers had penetrated his body.
Although these people are all exorcists, they were also ancient people. All they could think about were the ghost spirits but nothing else.
Once they realized that their Taoist art was of no use, for sure they were put on edge.
Ni Biao remained a normal expression on his face, however, the rest of them could not hide their fear on their faces.
The fact that Baili Jia Jue was still alive was something that was beyond belief to them!
Moreover, there was not even a single scar on him!
How could it be?
Ni Hu stared at Baili Jia Jue with his eyes wide open. “You, how come nothing happened to you at all!” Even if it was him, he was not sure whether he could make it out alive. Yet, Baili Jia Jue did it just as easy as one would only need to open a door!
Baili Jia Jue did not even look at him as he casually swayed his blue and white attire.
Ni Hu had never been belittled by anyone before. His voice became hoa.r.s.e as he uttered, “You must have done some tricks, or maybe you were possessed by the evil spirits of the feathers, that’s why…”
“Young Master Ni,” Helian Wei Wei interrupted with a dull voice before Ni Hu finished speaking. “The feathers you spoke of don’t exist at all, it is something that was bound to happen when you open up an ancient tomb. Once the millennium-old mural inside the ancient tomb gets into contact with the air, the paint on it would fall off and start to volatilize, creating an intriguing reaction with the air. It would then appear in front of a person’s eyes as if it really came into life but it’s just an illusion. If not, why would the feathers disappear for no reason in an instant? Young Master Ni, next time, before you doubt others, please do use your brain to think carefully first and have a look at what is on the walls of the graveyard.”
The exorcists then saw the feathers engraved on the walls after it was mentioned by Helian Wei Wei.
Everyone burst into laughter.
Obviously, they chortled due to Ni Hu’s remark.
Ni Hu’s face went red but there was nothing he could say to refute Helian Wei Wei. All he could do was stay put, hoping badly that he could take back the words he had mentioned earlier!
The exorcists could not stop from laughing.
However, thinking about it now, even the exorcists themselves were in a state of panic, let alone others.
The only person who was calm and composed from the beginning to the end was none other than the Eldest Young Lady from the Ni family in the distance and the two foreign exorcists.
Besides, as for the volatilization this person spoke of, what does it mean?
Is this something that an ordinary person would know?
To everyone’s surprise, the old tomb raider replied in the affirmative, “This young master is right. The illusion during the opening of the tomb just now is a situation that we would sometimes come across during tomb raiding.”
If this person did not mention it, he would have forgotten it long ago. This tomb raider was indeed unfit for the job. What a shame!
“Not at all, I only know the basics, we still need you to be around.” Helian Wei Wei was always polite and courteous. She then bowed her head toward the direction of the old man in a respectful and considerate manner.
The old tomb raider was absent-minded again in a wink. Alike, indeed alike…
