"Zangjian?"
When Huairou Ding heard Green Ghost King's surprised voice, he turned his head in shock to look at the figure of light, "Could it be that the existence that appeared is our Huairou family's ancestor, Huairou Zangjian?"
"What?"
The people from the Huairou family were astonished.
Green Ghost King's eyes were fixed on the figure of light. His eyes were burning with anticipation, as well as anger and unwillingness.
In the end, the light around the figure dimmed. A handsome man with pale skin and golden eyes entered everyone's line of sight. These people from the Huairou family had never seen Huairou Zangjian before, so they didn't know if this person was Huairou Zangjian or not. However, Green Ghost King had already cried out involuntarily, "It really is you, Huairou Zangjian! So you didn't die! "
"Is it really the ancestor?"
Huairou Ding took a few steps forward, sized up this person, and exclaimed.
"Of course I'm your ancestor, my descendants."
Huairou Zangjian looked at Huairou Zangjian with a smile.
"…"
"However, I have to regretfully tell you that I'm already dead. What you see now is only a remnant soul fragment that I intentionally injected into the 'Sacred Heart' when I was creating it!"
Huairou Zangjian smiled.
"Remnant soul?"
Green Ghost King gritted his teeth as he stared at Huairou Zangjian and said coldly, "How did you die back then?"
"Naturally, I died of old age."
"Impossible!" Green Ghost King roared, "Your cultivation is higher than mine, so how can your lifespan be lower than mine? This is impossible! You're lying to me again! "
"Why would I lie to you?" Huairou Zangjian said helplessly in a soft voice, "Although my cultivation is higher than yours, it's all obtained from absorbing profound coins. Although it can increase my strength, it can't increase my lifespan. I'm not like you, you walked step by step and obtained your own cultivation, so it's naturally different."
Green Ghost King clenched his fists, his teeth almost breaking.
"Alright, Jianya, stop messing around. Let my descendants go, for my sake." Huairou Zangjian said.
"Why?" Green Ghost King said angrily.
"You can't be so heartless, right? We've been friends for so many years, how can you be so heartless? "
"Hmph, stop trying to get close to me. Huairou Zangjian, unless you can defeat me today, I will definitely destroy your Huairou Family!"
"You … sigh, alright, alright. Since that's the case, I'll have to fight with you again … although I don't have much time left."
Huairou Zangjian revealed a helpless expression as he shrugged his shoulders. He then took a step forward and pulled out a golden sword from somewhere. He raised his head and looked at Green Ghost King gently. Suddenly, his figure flashed, and when he reappeared, he had already landed in front of Green Ghost King.
Whoosh!
The golden sword attacked, and the sword body exploded with thousands of rays of light, completely swallowing Green Ghost King.
"Five Direction Extermination!"
Green Ghost King gave a deep shout, and a large amount of saber Qi suddenly appeared around him. When he looked at him again, he saw that a pitch-black saber had appeared in his palm.
Saber Qi burst forth, tearing apart thousands of brilliant lights. A saber and a sword intertwined in the sky.
"Zangjian!! Back then, you set a trap and defeated me. I'm not convinced. Today, let's decide who's stronger and who's weaker! "
Green Ghost King roared with all his might. His arm that was brandishing the saber became even swifter and swifter, and the profound energy in his body poured out like a river.
"Jianya, are you sure?" "I'm just a merchant. How can I be your match in terms of cultivation?"
Huairou Zangjian said with a smile. His face didn't have the slightest bit of focus and seriousness that one should have when fighting with someone. It was as if in his eyes, this was just a spar with an old friend.
However, although Huairou Zangjian was relaxed, he was already at a disadvantage.
Not to mention that the Huairou Zangjian who was currently fighting with Green Ghost King was only a remnant soul, just the fact that Green Ghost King had been constantly cultivating for revenge all these years had already made his strength far stronger than before. Huairou Zangjian was even less of a match for him.
The Huairou clansmen looked worriedly at the two sides fighting in the sky. Everyone's faces were filled with worry. But very quickly, the outcome was decided.
With a 'dang' sound, a crisp sound rang out. The golden sword in Huairou Zangjian's hand was sent flying. It circled a few times in the air before turning into particles and dissipating.
A cold light flashed across Green Ghost King's eyes. He immediately raised his broadsword and slashed at Huairou Zangjian's neck.
However …
Huairou Zangjian looked at him quietly and smiled gently at him. He didn't have the slightest bit of fear, nor did he make any movements to resist.
Green Ghost King was stunned and hurriedly retracted his hand. The black blade was only a few centimeters away from his neck …
"What are you doing?" Green Ghost King gritted his teeth and said angrily.
"Nothing." Huairou Zangjian smiled and said, "Because I know you won't kill me."
"You …"
Green Ghost King opened his mouth and was stunned on the spot …
However, Huairou Zangjian reached out his hand and grabbed his hand that was holding the blade. He said softly, "Jianya, do you still remember the time when you were chased by your enemies and were seriously injured? Do you remember the time when I rescued you into the mansion to recuperate? In those days, we spent all day discussing the methods of martial cultivation, all day discussing the ways of doing business, saying what you want to say, doing what you want to do. How wonderful that time was! "
Green Ghost King's ashen face slightly changed, "Why are you saying this?"
"Nothing, I'm just feeling emotional." Huairou Zangjian smiled and said, "I remember that after you recovered from your injuries, I wanted you to leave, but you refused to leave no matter what. You had to repay my kindness. Actually, to tell you the truth, I didn't want you to leave either. At that time, I was facing a great enemy, and it was the time when I needed people. Your cultivation is very important to me, and with your help, I will definitely succeed. Furthermore, during this period of time that I have known you, I have long treated you as a friend. With you by my side, everything is no longer terrifying to me …"
Green Ghost King was stunned as he looked at Huairou Zangjian in a daze.
He raised his head and stared at Green Ghost King.
"Jianya, I know why you want to destroy the Huairou family. You're not doing it for your adopted son, because you know that I've never lied to you, and I won't harm your adopted son for no reason. The reason why you're doing this is just to take revenge on me for leaving without saying goodbye."
"Leaving without saying goodbye …" Green Ghost King seemed to have thought of something as his expression changed drastically, "Could it be …" Back then, you already … "
"Do you still remember the supreme expert that we destroyed together?" Huairou Zangjian smiled and said, "Before he died, he cast the most vicious curse in the world. I don't have much time left. In order to not make you too sad, I chose that method …"
"Deliberately provoking me to leave the Huairou family?"
"More or less, I just didn't expect your reaction to be so big."
"You …" What an idiot. " Green Ghost King secretly gritted his teeth, but there was no longer any hatred in his eyes, only disappointment and helplessness.
At his level of cultivation, how could he really care about everything in the Huairou family? Green Ghost King had persisted for so many years just to vent his dissatisfaction and anger towards Huairou Zangjian. However, today, all of this was like smoke in front of his eyes, gradually dissipating, and the grudge in his heart was slowly put down.
"Alright, Jianya … There's not much time left. I think … I need to leave again …" Huairou Zangjian smiled as his body suddenly became thin.
When Green Ghost King saw this, his expression suddenly tensed up. He hurriedly grabbed Huairou Zangjian's hand and injected energy into it. In an instant, Huairou Zangjian's thin and dim body lit up again.
Seeing this scene, the Huairou clansmen below were all stunned.
"What the hell is going on?" What is Ancestor Zangjian doing? "What is Green Ghost King doing?"
Huairou Gong opened his mouth, his face full of doubt.
"Huairou Zangjian's remnant soul won't be able to hold on for long and is about to dissipate. Green Ghost King is using his cultivation to prolong Zangjian's life in order to keep him."
At this moment, a voice came out. Su Yun looked over and realized that the person who spoke was Taoist Priest Niao Lu.
"Taoist Priest, why are you here?" Su Yun asked in surprise.
"I've been preparing for the removal of the curse in the mansion. Later, I received a report from a servant that the curse has been removed, so I came out in relief."
Taoist Priest Niao Lu chuckled.
"From the looks of it, everything that Green Ghost King has done is not because of his hatred with the Huairou family. On the contrary, he just can't let go of the shackles of his ancestor, Huairou Zangjian." Huairou Muyu muttered softly, "Although I don't know how deep the friendship between the ancestor and him is, there is no doubt that the feelings between the two of them can't be created in a day and night."
Seeing this scene, Su Yun was no longer worried. Perhaps, the appearance of Huairou Zangjian would be better than using the Sacred Heart to kill him.
In the air, Huairou Zangjian's body continued to dim, but Green Ghost King continued to pour profound energy into his body.
Although Green Ghost King's cultivation was profound and his strength was profound, he couldn't withstand such torment. Very quickly, Green Ghost King's face turned pale and his eyes gradually lost their light.
"Enough!"
Huairou Zangjian immediately grabbed his hand and said weakly.
Green Ghost King didn't say anything. He forcefully pried open his hand and continued to pour profound energy into his body.
"In the end, I'm just a remnant soul. I can't be resurrected. Why are you so persistent? I'm a dead man after all. I no longer belong to this world. "Huairou Zangjian smiled palely.
Green Ghost King still didn't say anything. At this moment, there was no longer any hatred or resentment in his eyes. All that was left was sorrow.
"Treat my clansmen well, Jianya. This is the last thing I'll ask of you, okay?"
Huairou Zangjian's gentle eyes quietly looked at Green Ghost King.
Green Ghost King's eyes flickered. After a long time, he nodded with difficulty.
"Don't be too sad. We will definitely meet again in the future, but if possible, I don't want to do business anymore. Being a businessman is very tiring."
Huairou Zangjian laughed heartily. His laughter was very hearty, but slowly, the voice gradually weakened, like pollen being blown away by the wind. It gradually merged with the breeze and slowly dispersed, disappearing.
Green Ghost King stood in the sky in a daze. His eyes quietly looked at his own hands and the gradually disappearing Huairou Zangjian. He didn't move for a long time, like a stone man.
