Chapter 45: The Mastermind Behind the Scenes

Uncle Wu, the butler, was knowledgeable and guessed that they might have encountered some evil spirits, so he kept thinking of ways to deal with it and did not fall into despair.

At first, the four guards struggled desperately, but they soon found it was futile. No matter how hard they tried, their bodies were out of control. They could only choose to enjoy it since they couldn’t resist.

After the wedding ceremony, should they be sent to the bridal chamber?

They couldn’t help but be excited when they saw how beautiful the bride was, and they looked forward to what was going to happen next.

But what happened next made their scalps tingle.

The guests around them sealed the beautiful bride alive in a clay statue!

Without any control over their bodies, they joined in and picked up the clay, filling and smearing it all over the bride.

They watched as the joyful and shy bride turned into a frightened one, with the sound of her pleading and begging ringing in their ears.

The festive music that was playing had turned into a funeral dirge.

The red curtains hanging around the pillars seemed to be flowing with blood.

The young lady and maidservants watched helplessly as they were being sealed like clay statues. Despite their desperate pleas, the guests were indifferent to their cries and continued to fill them with more and more clay.

In the flickering candlelight, the guests’ figures and faces looked particularly ferocious, like devouring demons.

Feeling the weight and suffocation of their bodies, all they were left with was helplessness, despair, and confusion.

“What did I do wrong? Why are you doing this to me? What did I do wrong?

Why are you treating me like this?…”

Perhaps the original bride had the same despair and confusion.

She had done nothing wrong, yet on her wedding day, the villagers had sealed her alive in a clay statue.

On the other side, Zhang Chen stepped out of his room and walked towards the house across the way, treading through the rainwater.

At this moment, he exuded the aura of a ninth-level Qi Refinement cultivator. ƒr𝒆𝑒𝔀e𝒃𝚗𝒐𝘃𝐞𝑙. c𝗼m

He did not use the Blood Ignition Technique. Rather, he had taken the precaution of ingesting stored blood essence which had elevated his cultivation to the ninth level of Qi Refinement.

The reason he had not made a move when the Ghost Bride appeared was because he was ingesting the blood essence.

This was one of the benefits of the Blood Nerve Technique. One only needed to separate the blood essence to lower one’s hidden cultivation realm.

As he arrived at the house across the way, in Zhang Chen’s eyes, two night guards were being covered in mud, which had already reached their necks.

The mud was pitch black, emitting a foul smell of decayed corpses.

A blood whip appeared in Zhang Chen’s hand, which he swung towards the mud.

The mud scattered, revealing the forms of the two guards.

Zhang Chen swung the blood whip again, enveloping the two guards and throwing them towards the door of his own residence.

As for whether the two guards would be injured from the fall, it was not within his consideration.

He was not a nanny. Saving their lives was already doing them a favor.

And this action also made the Ghost Bride aware of Zhang Chen’s presence.

When Zhang Chen pushed open the door of the house, the scene in front of him changed, becoming a wedding hall, and he was dressed in a red robe as the groom.

The events that happened to the guards began to repeat themselves on him.

But with a flash of bloody light in his eyes, the scene in front of him changed again.

This was the effect of the Spiritual Eye Technique!

There was no wedding hall or guests, only a mass of pitch-black Yin energy.

Did the ghost veil my eyes?

Or is it an illusion?

Zhang Chen walked into the room and saw the young lady and the maid covered in black mud, with fear and despair in their eyes.

With a wave of his Blood Whip, he dispersed the mud and rescued the two of them.

The Ghost Bride, seeing that the illusion didn’t work on Zhang Chen, finally appeared.

Yin energy condensed, forming a semi-illusory figure in the air.

Wearing a blood-red wedding dress stained with mud, it fell with constant cracking sounds.

The originally beautiful face was twisted with resentment.

Is this a ghost?

Zhang Chen calmly looked at the ghost bride in front of him and felt that even a demon beast would be more pleasing to the eye.

The reason why he was so calm was that the ghost bride in front of him only had the cultivation of the ninth level of Qi Refinement.

The Ghost Bride opened her mouth full of mud and let out an angry roar.

The mud that had fallen to the ground rushed towards Zhang Chen, trying to engulf him.

Zhang Chen reached into his storage bag and took out the Mad Blood Saber.

Then, using the Light Body Technique and the Blood Burst Technique, he charged towards the ghost bride.

Because it was so fast, the Mad Blood Saber sliced through her body before she could react.

There was no scene of blood and flesh flying around. After all, she was a ghost made of condensed yin energy, but her body became more illusory.

The ghost bride let out a piercing scream that was hard to listen to.

“Looks like I have to slash many times!” Zhang Chen frowned. If it was a living creature, one slash would kill it.

With his arm infused with Blood Burst Technique, he slashed again.

The ghost bride wanted to control the soil to resist, but she was too late.

The Mad Blood Saber slashed across her ghostly body once again, making her even more ethereal and transparent, as if she could disappear at any moment.

The ghost bride realized that she was no match for the person in front of her. She was afraid and turned to run.

“Trying to run?” Zhang Chen wouldn’t let her escape and quickly chased after her.

Zhang Chen was naturally faster than the ghost bride, but the ghost bride’s body was ethereal and could ignore the terrain and buildings.

Therefore, under the cover of many houses, he could not catch up for a while.

However, Zhang Chen’s mind was firmly locked onto the ghost bride, not giving her a chance to escape.

Soon, following the ghost bride, Zhang Chen arrived at the Goddess Temple in the village.

The ghost bride rushed into a clay statue and disappeared without a trace, no longer emitting any Yin energy.

If Zhang Chen hadn’t been following her with his locked mind, he wouldn’t have known that the clay statue could hide ghosts.

“As expected, it’s a man-made ghost.”

Zhang Chen looked at the temple and the clay statue, squinting his eyes, and slashed with a knife.

The clay statue sensed danger and emitted black light, blocking the attack.

“I see how many slashes you can take!” Zhang Chen slashed again, dispersing the black light.

This was immediately followed by a third slash.

“Pa!” The clay statue shattered, revealing the rotten bones inside.

Without hesitation, Zhang Chen also slashed the bones to pieces.

No matter where this female ghost came from, she was obviously artificially raised. If not killed, she might be used against him again.

If it weren’t for his Spirit Eye seeing through the illusion, killing this ghost bride would not have been easy.

In the instant the clay statue shattered, a Daoist priest who had been meditating in a Daoist temple suddenly opened his eyes.

“Who destroyed my clay statue and killed my ghost spirit!” The Daoist priest’s face was ferocious as he gritted his teeth.

If there were villagers around, they would have recognized him as the Daoist who had told them the solution to the drought.

“It wasn’t easy for me to find a virgin born in a yin year, yin month, and yin hour. I deceived the villagers to help me cultivate a ghost, but I didn’t expect it to be destroyed today!” The Daoist priest was filled with hatred.

A woman born in a yin year, yin month, and yin hour, who died on her wedding day in a yin year, yin month, and yin hour, with strong resentment, would turn into an extremely fierce evil ghost.

Molded into a clay statue for the villagers to worship, absorbing enough incense, it could transform into a higher-level ghost..
