My Life
His soul was unharmed.
Jiangchen's eyes blazed as he gazed at the translucent, untainted soul in Hanba's hands.
Rapid breathing came from his nose and mouth. He reached out his hand and took the soul.
"This … …"
"When Hiderigami and I found this soul, we were also shocked. At that time, this soul was hiding in a cave not far away. When it saw us, it flew over to us of its own accord, as if it had been waiting for us to find it. "
Houqing looked at the soul and smiled. For some reason, he felt as if a massive weight had been lifted from his shoulders.
Indeed, they were collectively known as the Four Zombie Progenitors, but they knew that Jiangchen was superior to them.
He, Yinggou, and Hanba were, at most, vessels for souls.
So long as he had the chance, Jiangchen would devour their souls and return to the insufferably arrogant Denglong.
He felt a little sad, but there was nothing he could do about it.
"Good, good, good."
Jiangchen nodded repeatedly as he carefully held the soul in his hands.
So long as the soul existed, he was still whole. Gu Li would never have imagined that Yinggou's soul would remain whole after releasing the Rakshasa Sea of Blood.
He'd better have the real thing, otherwise …..
He wouldn't have a good ending.
"Big Brother, the soul is now in your hands. Hanba and I will leave now. She needs time to recover from the wound on her arm. "
When he saw that Jiangchen was in a good mood, Houqing dared speak up.
"Alright, let's go."
After obtaining the soul, Jiangchen focused almost entirely on it. He didn't so much as glance at Houqing and the others.
Just as they reached the door, Jiangchen said, "I'm going into seclusion for the next few days to merge with the soul.
"For the next few days, I'm going into seclusion to merge with this soul. Don't let anyone disturb me, especially Gu Li.
"Got it."
Jiangchen shut the door tightly. His eyes were filled with greed as he stared at the strand of soul.
"Nuwa, just you wait."
As soon as he finished speaking, he opened his mouth wide and threw the wisp of soul into it.
Creak.
Houqing gently pushed the door shut. Hanba couldn't help but let out a low, pained cry.
At the time, Jiangchen had practically crushed his entire shoulder. That kind of heart-wrenching pain had always been on her nerves. However, she did not dare to make a sound and could only endure it.
"Hurry up and go back to recuperate," Houqing said as he glanced at Hanba.
"I know." Hanba endured the pain in his shoulder and looked at the room behind him. "Why did you give this soul to him?"
"You're the one who gave it to him, aren't you?" Houqing laughed.
"I …"
Hanba bit her lip and didn't say anything. She didn't want to give it to him, but she didn't dare not to.
"I know what you're thinking. I would do the same if I were you." Houqing smiled faintly. "It looks like we're on the same level on the outside, but we all know very well who's king in the end. Jiangchen is his main body. We can't attack him, nor do we dare disobey him. "
"But … if we give Ying Gou's soul to him, will we have a good ending?"
Houqing could not help but be stunned when he heard that. He raised his head to look at the bright moon in the sky and let out a light sigh.
"Who knows?"
"Then if he really wants to take our souls back, should we give them to him or not?" Hanba didn't know what to do. She suddenly regretted giving Yinggou's soul to Jiangchen.
In the past, they might have been able to keep each other in check.
But if Jiangchen absorbed Yinggou's soul, even if she and Houqing worked together, they wouldn't be able to turn the tables.
"No one can say for sure until then."
Houqing's gaze darkened. "In truth, my wish is very simple. As long as the Yellow Emperor dies, so what if I return his soul to Jiangchen?"
"Ai."
Hanba couldn't help but sigh. Houqing's gaze shifted, then he pursed his lips and snorted.
"Alright, don't think too much about it. Go back and recuperate. We still don't know if Jiangchen wants our souls or not, so we shouldn't worry too much. "
"You're right."
Hanba nodded, then turned to leave. Just as she was about to reach her residence, she suddenly sensed someone following her.
"Who is it?"
She shouted angrily. Before long, Houqing emerged from the darkness.
"Why did you follow me?"
"You're injured, aren't you? I was afraid you'd be in danger, so I secretly escorted you back," laughed Houqing.
"Sorry for the trouble." Although she sensed something was off, she still nodded at him. "I'm safe now. Hurry up and go back."
"How could I do that? I have to see you enter your room before I can deliver you safely."
"What on earth do you want?" Hanba's expression changed. She looked at Houqing warily. "You're very strange."
"Of course I'm strange. This time, I've come ….. to take your life."
As he spoke, Houqing inched closer, his face wreathed in smiles.
"Houqing!"
Hanba frowned and retreated. Houqing simply smiled and arched his brows.
"What are you doing? You've realized it too. In the future, Jiangchen will definitely want both our souls. Instead of giving them to him, why not give them to me? I've always treated you well. "
"Houqing, don't do anything rash."
Hanba couldn't help but frown as she retreated. Normally, she wouldn't be afraid of Houqing, but Jiangchen had crushed her shoulders. Her strength lay in her strength.
Crippling her arms was equivalent to crippling all of her strength.
"If you want to blame someone, blame Jiangchen. If he hadn't crushed your arms, I might not have even thought of doing this."
Houqing's face was filled with viciousness. He kept pressing forward. Hanba didn't dare to think too much. She turned around and dashed away.
"Trying to run?"
Houqing smirked, but continued walking at a leisurely pace.
It was a dead end.
When she saw that there was no way out, Hanba's heart sank. She turned around and saw that Houqing was still approaching her at a leisurely pace.
"Houqing, be rational. If you don't want to give him your soul, then we can work together."
"Work together? Swallowing your soul isn't as simple as one plus one equals two. You and I should be very clear about this. "
"Houqing!"
"Shut up. Giving me your soul isn't a loss."
As soon as he finished speaking, Houqing brazenly attacked Hanba.
An hour later …..
"Can't you just leave it to me like a good girl?"
Houqing glanced down at Hanba, then slung her over his shoulder. His expression was cold as he snorted at Jiangchen's room.
