Chapter 349 - Beating Up Guanglinzi (1/2)

That undead king had been the trump card for the entire overseas rite of the Maoshan Sect, and he came to Huaxia on that trip specifically to make that undead king even more powerful.

Even so, there was only one thought in his mind at the moment.

Run!

“Oh, now you wanna run, huh? Too late!” Lu Xuan snorted coldly and went after him right away.

Guanglinzi was very quick on his feet and bolted first, yet Lu Xuan proved to be even faster. He managed to stand right at the entrance of the village and cut him off.

“So you don’t intend to let me live, huh?” Guanglinzi said angrily.

Lu Xuan then elaborated plainly, “It’s not me who won’t let you live, but you yourself. Are you gonna try to convince me that, if it had been for some other common folk instead of me standing in your way now, you’ll do something other than slaughter every last person in this village?”

Guanglinzi was immediately tongue-tied after hearing Lu Xuan’s words. If he planned to succeed, the entire ancestral grave of the Lu Clan and its surroundings would be turned into a massive ground for fostering undead.

Yin qi would congregate around places for such purposes. It was not only the jiangshi that liked yin qi but all manner of demons and fiends as well.

With spirit qi being restored to the world at the moment, such fiendish beings who were at first hardly seen once in centuries would grow like nobody’s business.

In the end, the phenomenon might even bring about vengeful spirits that were increasingly powerful. A great disaster would befall the village, which was not all that far away from the grave.

Everyone from the village would have ended up as food for those vengeful spirits.

Under such circumstances, every single person in the village would likely be wiped out. With the ancestral graves of the entire clan being so messed up, there was no doubt that the fates and destinies of all descendants of the clan would suffer a massive decline.

All those from the clan would end up affected, even if they were nowhere near the village.

The implications would be very severe, which was why no one dared to do such a thing since ancient times.

It had been something that only the heretic sects and clans did in secret to a certain extent. It was unthinkable for even the renowned and righteous ones to consider it.

Even the Maoshan Sect, which used jiangshi as their main weapon in combat, never dared to do something that was deemed so sacrilegious. There were still other ways of developing undead kings, albeit at reduced efficiency and rate of progress.

Things were different back then, given that word was slow to travel all over the world. What happened in some remote village in some mountains might have gone totally unnoticed for even a decade or two, given that the location was just too remote.

If such an act was discovered in the current era, however, the whole world might come to know about it in just a single night.

“What about it? They’re all just a bunch of insects. If you don’t like what I’ve done, name your price. I’d be happy to make amends.” Guanglinzi then added, “I’d be willing to serve you from here on out, as long as you let me live.”

Lu Xuan then retorted casually, “You think so highly of your powers that you care not about the lives of common people. But to me, you’re hardly any better than them. As I said before, if you kill yourself, I’ll leave your body in one piece.”

“You want me to kill myself? Don’t make me laugh!”

Guanglinzi roared and performed a seal, shouting, “Lin bin dou zhe jie zhen lie zai qian, fire dragon!”

Guanglinzi threw a breath of fire that transformed into a fire dragon, which launched itself at Lu Xuan with fangs and claws bared.

Lu Xuan opened his mouth and blew a gust of wind.

His breath managed to snuff the fire dragon out just like that.

“Ji ji ru lu lin, heavenly thunder!”

As Guanglinzi shouted, the sky rumbled. A bolt of lightning immediately came down on Lu Xuan.

Lu Xuan responded by opening up his palm and grabbing that bolt in his hand. That bolt of lightning did not disperse right away but instead became a whip in his hand.

He then threw the whip at Guanglinzi right away.

Whack!
