Hearing the servant's urgent call, Huairou Gong frowned slightly, stood up and shouted, "What's the fuss about?"
A servant rushed in and hurriedly bowed to Huairou Gong, panting as he shouted, "Master, there's a lot of black qi in front of our mansion, it seems to be demonic qi, but it also seems to be ghost qi, it's very strange, this black qi can't be expelled, it can't be dispersed, and if you touch it, the flesh and blood on this body will fall to the ground, it's extremely terrifying!"
"Black qi?"
Huairou Gong's eyes tightened. Without saying a word, he walked out of the house. Su Yun and Huairou Mu Yu immediately followed.
The group of people arrived at the entrance of the Huairou Mansion. At this moment, there were many experts of the Huairou Family blocking the entrance, and in the distance were the servants of the Huairou Mansion. When they saw Huairou Gong coming over, they all knelt down and bowed.
"Greetings, Master!"
The guards saluted and then opened up a path.
Huairou Gong walked over, only to see a large amount of black qi floating in the sky outside the Huairou Mansion. The pedestrians on the road had long since disappeared, and it was very quiet. The black qi was constantly rippling, and it was strange.
"When did these auras appear?"
Huairou Gong asked.
"About an incense's time ago, this subordinate thought that it was an unintentional act of a Spirit Cultivator, but I didn't expect that not only did these auras not dissipate, but they were also getting denser and denser. Furthermore, they were very corrosive and could not be touched."
The guard at the gate cupped his fists and said.
"Do you know where it came from?"
"It's a black skull."
"A black skull?"
Huairou Gong was slightly stunned.
The guard pointed at the empty space opposite the gate. There, he saw a skull covered in cracks quietly lying there. At this moment, the skull was no longer emitting black Qi, but without a doubt, it should be a magic treasure, as if someone had deliberately left it here.
"Did someone do it on purpose?"
Huairou Gong thought.
Su Yun looked at the skull and closed his eyes to feel the black qi floating in the sky. Suddenly, he realized that the black qi was somewhat similar to the qi emitted from the black cauldron.
Could this be …
Hiss hiss hiss hiss hiss
Suddenly, a series of strange sounds came out. The pitch-black auras in the air suddenly moved. They quickly gathered together and formed their own groups. In the blink of an eye, they formed a huge evil face …
This face was the same face he saw in the black cauldron …
The appearance of his face gave everyone a fright. The guards of the Huairou Residence all gathered and surrounded him.
Huairou Gong stared at that face and said with a heavy voice, "Green Ghost King?"
The black face moved, revealing a trace of a cold smile. "Huai Rou Gong? Hehe, the Huairou family is really getting worse with each generation. You're both merchants, but who knows how much stronger Huairou Zangjian's cultivation is compared to yours. "The sinister voice came out with a very strong sense of disdain.
Huairou Gong was not angry. He only said indifferently, "There are talented people in every generation. Although I, Huairou Gong, am not good, it does not mean that there will not be any more capable people in my Huairou family. Just wait and see."
"Wait and see? I'm afraid I won't be able to wait until then. " Green Ghost King laughed coldly and continued, "People of the Huairou family, everything you have now should belong to me, Green Ghost King, and not you. Huairou Zangjian used despicable methods to seize all of this. Now, I think it's time to take it back!"
"What are you going to do?" Huairou Gong said with a serious expression.
"In ten days, I will send someone to Wu Ye City to take back everything that belongs to me."
Green Ghost King said in a low voice.
Huairou Gong's face darkened. "Green Ghost King, aren't you afraid of the curse that my ancestor, Huairou Zangjian, placed on you? Aren't you afraid of the 'Sacred Heart' passed down by my ancestor? If you dare to mess around, you will definitely die! "
"Curse?" "Hehe, he, Huairou Zangjian, can't even do anything to me when he's alive. Am I still afraid of him when he's dead? Not to mention that 'Sacred Heart'. You should ask its owner, Huairou Muyu, if she dares to use this treasure. "Green Ghost King said.
With that said, Huairou Gong immediately looked at Huairou Muyu. However, at this moment, Huairou Muyu was silent.
"Yu 'er, give me the' Sacred Heart '."
Huairou Gong said in a low voice.
Huairou Muyu took a step back and gently shook her head, "Father, the curse on your body hasn't been lifted yet. If I give it to you, they will immediately kill you."
"Then use the 'Sacred Heart' to kill them. I don't believe that anyone can escape the attack of the 'Sacred Heart'!" Huairou Gong said in a deep voice.
However, Huairou Muyu still shook her head. She would never casually joke around with her father's life. When Su Yun fought with Ye Mo Xian before, Su Yun could ignore Huairou Gong's life and death. That was because Su Yun wasn't Huairou Gong's child, but she was.
Seeing his daughter being so stubborn, Huairou Gong opened his mouth but didn't know what to say.
In fact, he knew better than anyone that although the 'Sacred Heart' was powerful, it could only deal with one person. If he used it to kill Ye Mo Xian, not only would he die from the curse, but Green Ghost King would also persecute the Huairou family without any scruples. If he used it to kill Green Ghost King, Ye Mo Xian would probably control everything and use his own life to persecute the Huairou family. The effect of the 'Sacred Heart' to save the situation was not strong.
"Hehehehe …" Green Ghost King let out a complacent laugh, "Now that the curse can't restrain me, and this' Sacred Heart 'has lost its effect on me, this is a great opportunity. Why don't I come and take what I deserve? Huairou, in ten days, my disciple Ye Mo Xian will personally come here to take back everything that belongs to me. Prepare yourselves. "
Green Ghost King laughed.
"Although I won't carelessly use the 'Sacred Heart' on you, this doesn't mean that I'll sit still and wait for death. No matter who comes, you have to prepare him to die."
Huairou Muyu said in a low voice.
"Die?" Green Ghost King sneered, "Are you even worthy of saying that? It's better to take a bath and wait for me to extract your soul! "
After saying that, the twisted ghost face began to slowly dissipate. Even the aura in the air gradually disappeared. Everything seemed to have returned to the beginning.
Everyone's faces were very heavy. Huairou Gong was the most serious one. Now, none of the methods left behind by their ancestors to restrain Green Ghost King were useful. If the Huairou family didn't have an existence that could match Green Ghost King, then the Huairou family would definitely perish.
"This time …" This is really bad. "
Huairou Gong sighed helplessly and muttered.
"Dad, there's nothing that can't be solved. Now that things have come to this, what we need to do is think of a way to deal with that Green Ghost King!" Huairou Muyu said.
"Deal with? How? "
Huairou Gong shook his head and said, "Green Ghost King is a powerful existence from the same era as our ancestor. Although he experienced a lot and his cultivation was greatly reduced, the current him is still peerless. Other than the top existences in Bei Yang, no one can contend against such an expert. In the area outside Bei Yang, he is a god. How do you want my Huairou family to deal with this god?"
However, Huairou Muyu didn't care about this voice. Her little face was full of seriousness as she looked at Huairou Gong and said seriously, "Father, have you forgotten our ancestor? Could it be that the situation our ancestor faced was better than ours? If he isn't afraid, then why are you worried? "
After hearing Huairou Muyu's words, Huairou Gong didn't speak for a long time. After an unknown period of time, he sighed softly, nodded his head, and said with emotion, "That's right, Yu 'er, perhaps at this juncture, I am indeed inferior to you. Since you've already said that, then let's think of another way. After all, there are still ten days of time. If we can remove the curse on my body within these ten days and use the Sacred Heart to continue threatening Green Ghost King, then everything can be saved. Without Green Ghost King's support, Ye Moxian definitely won't act recklessly."
Huairou Muyu nodded.
Huairou Gong didn't hesitate. He immediately turned his head and shouted to the guard beside him, "Immediately send someone to inform Taoist Priest Niao Lu and tell him to hurry to Wu Ye City. Tell him that the Huairou family is in danger of being exterminated and ask him to help!"
"Yes sir!"
The guard didn't dare to hesitate. He cupped his fists and left.
"Taoist Priest Niao Lu? Father, who is that? "
"It's the friend I'm talking about. I asked him to come here to let him see my curse. He's from the Emperor Palace of Bei Yang. He's powerful, knowledgeable, and knows array seals. He's not someone ordinary people can compare to. If he's here, he can at least think of a plan for me." "Although my business talent isn't as good as yours, Yu 'er, I've made some friends over the years."
"Master Huairou, your friend is from the Emperor Palace?"
Without waiting for Huairou Muyu to speak, Su Yun exclaimed.
Huairou Gong looked at Su Yun with a puzzled expression, "Does little friend Su know someone from the Emperor Palace?"
"I don't know him." Su Yun shook his head, then cupped his fists and said, "However, I've heard from others that my parents stayed in the Emperor Palace for a period of time. My parents have been separated from me for many years, so if possible, I'd like to talk to that Taoist Priest Niao Lu and ask about my parents."
"This isn't difficult." Huairou Gong waved his hand, "You've saved Yu 'er's life time and time again, so you're the benefactor of my Huairou family. I'll explain these things to Niao Lu."
"Thank you very much."
Three days later.
A middle-aged man wearing a green and yellow Daoist robe and holding a long sword was invited into the Huairou Manor. This person was Taoist Priest Niao Lu.
It was said that Taoist Priest Niao Lu had left Bei Yang and was working around Wu Ye City, which was why he rushed over so quickly. When he heard that something big had happened to the Huairou Family, Taoist Priest Niao Lu rushed over without stopping.
When Su Yun rushed to the reception hall of the Huairou Manor, Huairou Gong and Taoist Priest Niao Lu had already been chatting for a long time. When Su Yun and Huairou Muyu walked into the hall, they began to discuss business.
In order to prevent the Huairou Family's business from being affected, Huairou Gong had completely sealed off this matter. He didn't even inform the upper echelons of the Huairou Family. In fact, in his opinion, it was useless for the upper echelons of the Huairou Family to participate in this matter. Most of them were merchants and could not help much.
Su Yun and Huairou Muyu stepped forward and bowed to the man in the green and yellow Daoist robe.
"Greetings, Taoist Priest Niao Lu!"
