Chapter 101
But now, with this suspicious patriarch Qi, as long as they kept observing and collecting evidence, not only they could catch the insider of the Jiang family, they might also be able to prove that monsters were coming to besiege the city.
“This patriarch Qi is an insider.” Xu Ziyan was also pleasantly surprised by this unexpected discovery. This was a ready-made ‘evidence’. They just needed to catch this patriarch Qi, and they would certainly find a way to persuade Jiang Tianxing.
After the two returned to Jiang’s house, Xu Ziyan went to look for Jiang Tianxing’s secret agent, while at the same time, Xu Zirong quietly entered the secret room of Jiang Ying’s (m.) prison cell again.
“What are you doing?” When Jiang Ying saw Xu Zirong appear, he wasn’t pleased at all. Especially when he saw that Xu Ziyan wasn’t coming along, he became more cautious to Xu Zirong.
Xu Zirong looked at him up and down, and his facial expression became a little delicate, “your primordial yang is gone.”
Jiang Ying’s face suddenly became red, and he stuttered so much that he couldn’t even speak, “you…how…you…”
Xu Zirong’s squinted eyes flashed, and he didn’t admit that it’s jealousy.
“Hey, what do you want to do?” Jiang Ying (m.) instinctively sensed the danger, and took a few steps back in reflection.
“You seem to be in a good mood.” Xu Zirong walked slowly to the table and sat down, without paying attention to Jiang Ying.
Jiang Ying’s facial expression changed a few times. When he was about to get angry, he suddenly twisted and became calm again, “what’s the matter with you?”
Xu Zirong glanced at him, frowned slightly, then showed a dazzled expression while muttering to himself, “one body with two souls? A demonic body plus two souls in one body, what an interesting combination you have there.”
When the gentle Jiang Ying was about to disappear when he heard the term “demonic body”, he almost stared at Xu Zirong in panic, “you…how did you know?” It would at most bring him some troubles after people knew that he had two souls in one body, but if anyone knew that he also possessed a demonic body, and he might become the target of “walking in” by those high-level demon cultivators!
“Don’t do stupid things.” Xu Zirong looked icy cold, he just tapped a few times on the desk with his fingers.
Jiang Ying’s expression remained unchanged, but he slightly hooked his fingers covered under his clothes.
“Ah!” Jiang Ying exclaimed. There was a tingling pain from his fingertips, then the numbness began to spread from his fingertips to the whole body.
Jiang Ying was shocked, as he didn’t expect that he would be calculated silently. He had always been vigilant towards Xu Zirong, and the demonic power that he cultivated with his demonic body was more powerful than an ordinary cultivator at his mid-stage of building base. Although Xu Zirong was in the late stage of building base, their differences could not have enabled Xu Zirong to crush him so easily, unless the type of cultivation that Xu Zirong practiced was far more advanced that his “lost soul spell”.
Upon seeing this, Xu Zirong gave him a cold smile, “I told you already not to do stupid things.”
The gentle Jiang Ying’s eyes were dull, and he looked at Xu Zirong suspiciously.
Xu Zirong was not in a hurry, he slowly sorted out the wrinkles on the hem of his clothes. After smoothing them out, he seemed to have thought of something else, then he rubbed the sleeves and made it wrinkled, Jiang Ying felt speechless.
What’s his problem? Smoothing out his clothes then wrinkling them again? He’s got too much free time, right?
Regardless of the purpose of Xu Zirong, Jiang Ying, who’s numb all over his body at this moment, quickly thought about the purpose of Xu Zirong showing up in his cell.
The last time he came, he was with his brother, the purpose was to find the suspicious figure in the Jiang family. However, this time he appeared alone, and he immediately used a powerful technique. So, what’s his real purpose?
“Do you want to understand?” Xu Zirong raised the corner of his mouth.
Jiang Ying was not very happy, “just put it straight, I know I can’t beat you, but if you want to kill me, you would have killed me long time ago. Let’s just tell me, what do you want me to do?”
Xu Zirong nodded, “I like smart people. What you practiced is the lost soul spell, right?” Xu Zirong put it as a matter-of-fact manner.
Jiang Ying smiled coldly, “didn’t you know about it a long time ago?”
“It’s not too early.” Xu Zirong said indifferently, “the lost soul spell that you practiced is not complete, you know that?”
“I know, but this is the most complete and the most advanced demonic techniques that I could find.” With the limitations that he had, Jiang Ying was already grateful to have found this high-level practice, how would he care further whether it’s complete?
A person with a demonic body couldn’t cultivate the “righteous” way. But Jiang Ying didn’t have enough strength to cultivate low-level practices and he couldn’t leave the Jiang family in this way.
For high-level demon cultivation which could cause serious damages to the body, the possession of a demonic body would be an irresistible temptation. Usually, demon cultivation would be harmful to the body, yet having a demonic body would make a person totally immune to these damages.
The term “walking in” was like a sword hanging on top of Jiang Ying’s head. For him, once any high-level demon cultivator found out that he had a demonic body, it would certainly be fatal for him.
101 part 2
In history, those demon cultivators possessing a demonic body and doing whatever they wanted would be walked in long time ago, or they already obtained high-level practices out of some rare opportunities and they were hiding in some secret place. They would only appear after obtaining certain amount of self-defensiveness.
Jiang Ying had made the second plan, so he had to work hard to cultivate the lost soul spell.
According to the introduction of this book, the long soul spell is a kind of illusion attack, which is aimed at the enemy’s soul. After practicing it to a high level, it can even enable a person to take away someone else’s life by just looking at him. However, the book that Jiang Ying got ahold of wasn’t a complete one, and he could at most cultivate it to the stage of golden core. However, this was already good enough for him, as he could then escape from the Jiang family and look for the other half of the book.
“Do you want to lose the second half of the book?” Xu Zirong said this lightly, making Jiang Ying confused.
He suddenly wanted to stand up, but his body wasn’t in control at all, “do you have its second half?”
“Well, not only do I have the second part of the book, but I also know a secret.”
Jiang Ying’s expression moved slightly, and he slowly said after thinking for a while, “tell me, what do you want?”
Xu Zirong smiled slightly, “I want you!”
“You want me?” Jiang Ying was stunned, then his face turned totally pale, “you…you…”
Xu Zirong raised his eyebrows and sneered with disdain, “what are you thinking about? Do you think that I am interested in your body? Why don’t you look at the mirror, are you even comparable to my brother’s finger?”
Jiang Ying was stunned again, realizing that he had misunderstood. His face flushed immediately, and then he was a little angry when he heard Xu Zirong’s sarcastic words. Then, he was a little shocked when he finally understood the real meaning of Xu Zirong.
Jiang Ying’s expression changed several times, and finally turned into a lunatic smile, “Ahahaha…Although you are arrogant, you have what it takes to be arrogant. And…you’re in love with your brother, this is too interesting.”
Jiang Ying’s face distorted a few times, then it transformed into the gentle and elegant Jiang Ying. He was not as relaxed as the evil Jiang Ying, but instead, he gave a wry smile, “since you’ve told me this kind of thing, won’t I die if I don’t accept your request?”
Xu Zirong smiled and said playfully, “guess.”
The gentle Jiang Ying couldn’t help but curse in his heart, “what do I have to guess? You’re threatening me so obviously, I guess you just want me to fall into your trap!”
Xu Zirong knew how to threaten and lure at the same time, he’s really got good methods!
The gentle Jiang Ying was without any facial expressions and seemed to be weighing his own gains and losses. Xu Zirong didn’t urge him, he was just tapping the tabletop gently with his index finger.
Knock!
Knock!
It was a regular tapping sound, and the sound of the knuckles tapping the tabletop was quite clear, but Jiang Ying only felt upset upon hearing it. His heart was beating faster, and he also wanted to attack Xu Zirong.
Snap!
Just as he was about to attack, Xu Zirong suddenly used his palm to tap on the desk.
Jiang Ying only felt that his heart shrank suddenly, and his spiritual power suddenly burst out uncontrollably, and he spat out a mouthful of dark red blood.
The room was horribly quiet, and the faint bloody smell filled up the small space.
Jiang Ying was silent for a while, he raised his head after calming down, and he wiped away the blood stain on the corner of his mouth. The way of him looking at Xu Zirong was more than just complicated. His numbness also disappeared at the moment he spat out the blood, and he was very confused.
“I can give you enough time to consider. Just give me the update before your sister gets married.” Xu Zirong stood up and patted the non-existent dust on his body, “I’ve already told you half of the secret. It depends on you whether you’ll get the other half.” Afterwards, he raised the corner of his mouth, yet there’s no sense of smile in his eyes, “remember, this is our deal, and if you tell someone else…”
He didn’t say what the consequences would be, but both understood that Xu Zirong had the ability to take revenge.
After seeing that slender figure disappear into the passage, Jiang Ying couldn’t bear it anymore, and he spit out some blood again. The blood looked much sharper than last time, but it’s still a bit dark.
“What’s going on?” The evil Jiang Ying asked anxiously. When two were sharing one body, the other felt the other half’s emotions, “did he do it?”
“No.” The gentle Jiang Ying’s face turned a little pale, “I’m guessing that the lost soul spell that we’ve found is a little problematic.”
“Is there a problem? And what is it? We spent so much effort to get it.” The evil Jiang Ying said.
The gentle Jiang Ying nodded, “but don’t you think that the procedure had been too smooth?”
“Too smooth?” The evil Jiang Ying’s eyes tightened, and the two recalled the situation at the same time.
Jiang Ying was only eleven years old at the time, as he had a demonic body, he couldn’t practice any “normal” cultivation of the Jiang family. Then, they found a treasure map out of an occasion, and the treasure was not far away from Wuti City.
According to the instructions on the treasure map, Jiang Ying, who was still young and had no spiritual power, had to work hard to finally obtain the secret book of that demon cultivator, and that’s the lost soul spell that they were practicing now.
