Chapter 196 Leader of the Corpse Refinery Sec (2/2)

”The Natural Law is as boundless as death is insignificant. The Gods and Buddhas are everywhere to guide the living. In this entire universe, there is nowhere to run! Soul-tracking Blood Spell…”

The three great spells of Zuoqiu family's enchantment arts were the Soul-exterminating Blood Spell, Soul-petrifying Blood Spell, and Soul-tracking Blood Spell. The Soul-tracking Blood Spell was particularly powerful. The caster, using his own vital essence as the price, would be able to find the subject of the deceased's strongest grievance. The target wouldn't be able to escape the tracking of the spell no matter where he ran.

It was evident to him that the subject of Zuoqiu Ze's strongest grievance would be Xiao Chen. He was sure that the spell would land on Xiao Chen.

However, before he could finish his sentence, an eerie voice drifted from afar. ”You can end the chase now. I'm here…”

Zuoqiu Ming abruptly raised his head. Under the moonlight, he saw a terrifying human whose body was putrifed from the neck down gradually creeping closer to him. His expression changed drastically. ”Who are you?!”

”Aren't you looking for the person who killed your child? That's me. What are you going to do about it?”

Right now, Yu Yangzi looked like a completely different person. Not only was his voice was ice-cold, but his gaze was also icy enough to freeze all living things in the world.

Even Zuoqiu Ming, whose cultivation was close to the Nascent Soul Realm, couldn't help getting a shiver. To this day, no one had dared to speak to him this way. Zuoqiu Ping looked furious. Just as he was about to lose his temper, he stopped him just in time.

Zuoqiu Ping was an expectant Nascent Soul Realm cultivator. Naturally, he was blind as to how scary this man was. But how could Zuoqiu Ming not know? To him, it seemed that they wouldn't be able to hurt even a strand of this man's hair even after working together. He immediately saluted the man. ”Please enlighten us as to how our child offended you. Kindly return his soul to us.”

Yu Yangzi sneered. ”I can't return his soul because I've ingested it. My plan is finally coming into fruition today. If you know what's good for you, leave immediately!”

Zuoqiu Ming shook all over. Having already triggered his True Energy in secret, he said solemnly, ”May we ask for your identity…”

”The previous Leader of the Corpse Refinery Sect, Yu Yangzi!”

”What?!”

Zuoqiu Ping wasn't the only one whose face went pale after hearing Yu Yangzi's words. Even Zuoqiu Ming was shaking once again. In a strained voice, he said, ”You… You're the Leader of the Corpse Refinery Sect who went missing 300 years ago!”

Yu Yangzi raised his head and laughed heartily. ”To think that there are still people who remember me after 300 years!”

His gaze swiftly turned ice-cold. ”Now that you know my identity, leave now!”

Zuoqiu Ming and Zuoqiu Ping dared not to linger around after receiving his warning. Carrying Zuoqiu Ze's body, they transformed into two drawn-out lights and fled.

The moon was beginning to set. Yu Yangzi looked westward at the horizon and sighed. ”My disciple, back then you took advantage of my decaying process to steal two of my souls. Well, wait until I ingest that woman's soul. I'll surely come for you next…”

The paths inside the forest were rugged. The darkness of the night and dried flora blocking the way didn't help matters either. It took Xiao Chen quite some effort to arrive at the location of the palace that Yu Yangzi spoke of. He saw only a desolate land. It did look like someone had placed an illusory formation here to fool the eyes.

Earlier, he had panicked after seeing a sudden red radiance lighting up the sky but ended up hearing no other movement. That didn't surprise him. After all, it was impossible for Yu Yangzi to fight a life-and-death battle with a Nascent Soul Realm cultivator for his sake.

Of course, he hadn't thought of really helping Yu Yangzi to break the formation. He was planning to escape while the two of them were battling. However, now that he was here, he inexplicably had the urge to break the formation and see what was going on.

The spirit energy of the formation here was emanating a faint Immortal Qi. How could it be the work of a devil?

Murong Xian'er noticed his hesitation and quietly asked, ”Brother Xiao Chen, are we going to break the formation?”

Xiao Chen frowned. Yu Yangzi's determination to break this formation was becoming increasingly suspicious, but he wouldn't be at ease if he didn't break this formation and uncover the truth behidn it. The objective of his journey here was finding clues about his Master's whereabouts. If he escaped now, wouldn't he be missing a perfectly good chance?

He was momentarily silent. In the end, he said, ”We're breaking it! I want to go in and take a look!”
