Chapter 379 - The Secluded Hall in the Deep (1/2)
Zhiluan saw Xiao Chen becoming like a different person in an instant, was scared and stopped laughing. It blinked and said, “I said, this big joke I could laugh for a year.”
“Last sentence!”
“Haha, you are going to catch a Millennium Walking Corpse…”
“The sentence before that!”
“Kid-Kiddo, you’re not possessed right…” Zhiluan saw Xiao Chen’s expression suddenly become very weird, such a cold dead night, there was a strange horrifying vibe that was beyond words.
He leaned back cautiously and whispered, “I said that the Walking Corpse of more than a thousand years of Malicious Grudge can’t be killed. It doesn’t have the souls and senses. As soon as it dies, its Malicious Grudge will immediately make it reborn, unless…”
Xiao Chen felt cold all over, with a little dizziness. This feeling was like suddenly falling into a cold and dark abyss, but this abyss had no bottom, so he kept falling and falling, and he could not die. He could only be in constant darkness and despair.
“Kid-Kiddo, what’s the matter with you?” Zhiluan saw his expression change again, this time it lowered its voice and changed the topic. It carefully approached a few steps to him but was also afraid that he would suddenly lose his mind and become violent, so it did not dare go too close.
Xiao Chen’s expression was a little dreamy. He suddenly remembered many years ago when he was still in the Xiao family. When he learned that he could not practice martial arts, when he could not find a trace of thousands of years ago, he was very depressed and thought of death. Then he jumped off the cliff of that Rainbow Pavilion.
At such a high cliff, even a cultivator would fall to death. However, at the moment of landing, the feeling was like falling into a cliff in a dream. When he fell into the ground, all consciousness was gone. The dream was gone, and the feeling was really death! But then, he woke up miraculously…
What the hell was this, who was he, was he really already… No, that would be impossible, when death happens, one would lose his souls and senses, and his were still there. He was thinking too much.
After a while, Zhiluan walked to his side and whispered, “Kiddo, don’t go to that Ghost-wailing Hill, the heavier the Resentment Qi, the more powerful the Walking Corpse…”
Xiao Chen did not speak, and he slowly put away these cluttered thoughts in his head. The heavier the Resentment Qi, the more powerful the Walking Corpse, Resentment Qi, Walking Corpse… He suddenly thought of something again and exclaimed, “Oh no!” Then he hurriedly ran out of the cave.
“Kiddo where are you going! Wait for me!” Zhiluan spread its wings and chased after him.
A man and a cat flew 50 kilometers and returned to the Precipice Peak where the battle with Danyang Zi happened. The place was extremely bloody, and the dead bodies were unbearable to sight. Xiao Chen went to the place where Danyang Zi died, and was shocked. “Oh sh*t!”
The body was gone. Only those bodies that had been chopped up by Seven Killings were around. Danyang Zi’s body was gone. Xiao Chen turned his head to look at Zhiluan. “Did you bury his body?”
“Nah-uh! Yu Eleven knows that the Order of the Divine Fire and you and little Luo had grudges, with little Luo around, how will he collect the body for the Order of the Divine Fire.”
Xiao Chen settled himself and as if he was talking to himself, said, “That’s weird. It’s impossible to gather Malicious Grudge and have a corpse change in such a short time, unless… Corpse Refinery Sect!”
“Bloody meow! I thought so too! This corpse collecting sect is too insidious! They easily gained a good bargain!” Zhiluan’s two claws in front of its chest, it flew in midair, bulging, as if it just had a big loss.
Xiao Chen gazed in the direction of the mountains, but it was so dark that he could not see anything. Danyang Zi’s Resentment Qi was very heavy when he died, and his body was of the pinnacle of Nirvana Realm. If he was to be refined into a Corpse Puppet, he would absorb more Malicious Grudge than those usual Corpse Puppets, and it would very likely retain the resentment he had when he was alive.
“Come here, Leopard Cat Spirit.”
“Why?” Zhiluan was looking around, it flew over after Xiao Chen shouted suddenly, and he then said to Zhiluan, “Go back and tell Brother Yifeng, let them go back to Jade Qing Sect as soon as possible; don’t stay around in this mountain.”
Zhiluan shrugged and said, “I’ll try.” Then he turned and whispered quietly, “Yu Eleven is a stupid ox, he is stubborn and he’s one-track minded. Whatever Qing Chen asked him to do, he will do it. Even if he asked him to jump into the fire pit…”
Xiao Chen sighed softly. Brother Yifeng was very similar to himself then, right is right, wrong is wrong, righteous is righteous, evil is evil, and he was always clear-cut.
Zhiluan glanced at him and said, “Why? Kiddo, you wanna go to the end of the earth alone from now on? Not with us?”
Xiao Chen sighed and shook his head. If he walked too close together with Yu Yifeng and the others, it would hurt Jade Qing Sect instead. At that time, a villain would inevitably make a fuss about it. He said, “Help me to take care of Xian’er when you go back.” After that, he took out a Tier Six Spirit Stone and passed it to Zhiluan.
“Take her down the mountain to play in Qing Province when you have time. Whatever she wants, you buy it for her. I can’t come back yet.”
Zhiluan took the Spirit Stone and muttered, “Stupid boy, so rich…”
