Ghost General

Feng Haochen stayed standing and smiling. He leisurely sat down on the stone chair behind him and treated himself to a nip of tea.

“Y-you consumed the slave pill. I’ve seen the results. Why aren’t you following my command? Kneel before me!” Panic flitted across Gui Xuanyue’s face. “Kneel!”

“Young Man, your shizun would be better off if he spent some more time studying,” Feng Haochen remarked with a friendly wink. “Do you know the origins of slave pills?”

“No.”

“When I discovered them after tirelessly researching, I purely wanted to control elemental demons using them. I didn’t think humans would use them on other humans. Which creator would ever imagine he’d end up consuming a slave pill?”

A red trail of light ran along Feng Haochen’s body to his mouth. He spat the sleeve pill and flicked it into smithereens.

The two youths’ brains were unable to process the information fast enough.

“Impossible,” muttered Gui Xuanyue.

Gui Xuanyue’s shifu only told him to not be conspicuous with slave pills’ usage and to not let Third Heaven Palace find out they possessed the illicit pills. Ghost Sect had no idea Feng Haochen destroyed slave pills long ago. Theirs were either contraband or a version they concocted.Folloow current novÊls on nov/3lb((in).(co/m)

“I experimented with slave pills on elemental demons. Sadly, it didn’t work. I stopped bothering with slave pills thereafter, but somebody supposedly on my side stole the formula and has now used them to commit evil. They didn’t work on elemental demons, yet work on humans...”

Feng Haochen sternly asserted, “Gui Yuzi’s techniques are used to deceive the heavens. The heavens will eventually find out about your deception. I promise the heavens will punish you once they do. Gui Yuzi’s lineage was wiped out for that very reason. You deceived Celestial Prison. Consequently, the heavens will erase you, body and soul one day.”

Gui Xuanyue brushed Feng Haochen off and focused on chanting his curses. Once he was done reciting all forty-nine curses, the spirit soul’s spiritual power condensed more and more. The ghost’s face was revealed to be the same as Feng Haochen’s.

“Go!” commanded Gui Xuanyue.

Gui Xuanyue had his spirit soul charge into Vacant Spirit Ghost Domain to invade Feng Haochen’s body. Feng Haochen’s face turned pallor as the spirit soul exited his body and fused with the ghost general.

Flashing golden ancient text spread across the sky. The patterns in the sky were none other than the tracks of Celestial Prison. Gui Xuanyue successfully wrestled control from Feng Haochen and planted the remote in his ghost general.

Feng Haochen sprayed a mist of blood from his mouth as he staggered back, chest pounding hard.

“Shifu!” Mu Yu couldn’t break free of Gui Xuanyue’s grip.

With the smile of a killer, Gui Xuanyue said, “The last step is to kill you, and my ghost general shall have full control over the formation.”

Feng Haochen spat out another mouthful of blood. “Ghost generals aren’t living organisms. It can’t change anything even if it becomes the formation’s core.”

“But I can speed up the spiritual qi depletion. Once the formation kills a Golden Core Realm cultivator, I’ll have a spirit soul to play with. That’s perfect, isn’t it?” responded Gui Xuanyue, cackling. He summoned a cold and dark black sword to his hand. “Everyone thinks True God passed away because he vanished without a trace after exterminating the elemental demons. Allow me to make it a reality.”

Gui Xuanyue enhanced his blade with ghost qi and thrust it toward Feng Haochen’s chest...
