"You …" Ghost Li was speechless, unable to speak.
Zeng ShuShu glared at him, said, "If you do not wish for both of our reputations to be ruined, then don't speak so loudly."
Ghost Li stared at him, an inexplicable confusion in his heart, he should have felt that this person was really mischievous but for some reason, this seemingly senseless and uninteresting action, suddenly made him feel much closer to Zeng ShuShu, the times of the past, seemed to have returned again.
Zeng ShuShu smiled at him, turned and walked back. His quick-wittedness in a moment of desperation, actually had a deep meaning, to pull this friend back from the Evil Way, he must first let him acknowledge him as a friend. Now that he had risked being ridiculed by everyone to do this senseless thing, Ghost Li was indeed speechless, most likely in the future when they meet again, their relationship would definitely be much better than now.
Thinking of this, a smile unconsciously appeared on his face. FaXiang waited for him to walk back, smiled at him and said, "Zeng senior brother, what made you so happy?"
Zeng ShuShu was in a good mood, made a face at FaXiang and said, "Buddha said: Cannot say, cannot say!"
FaXiang smiled and glanced at Ghost Li, that person was standing there, holding a thick blue book in his hand, his expression seemed complicated, not knowing what he was thinking. He shook his head and spoke to the others, "The matter here is settled, let's go too, if there is anything, we will talk about it later."
Zeng ShuShu was the first to nod, then Lin JingYu and Lu XueQi also silently nodded in agreement.
The four of them turned into four brilliant lights, rose to the sky, circled once in the air and then left.
Ghost Li stood on the huge tree trunk, suddenly felt an emptiness in his heart, as if he had lost something. His gaze then landed on the book in his hand and then he raised his hand, looked like he was about to throw the book out but suddenly he gave a bitter laugh and finally kept the book back into his bosom.
Then, he breathed deeply and then let out a long breath, pulled himself together and said, "Xiao Hui, let's go out."
Xiao Hui this time did not even open its eyes, indistinctly called out twice, "Zi zi, zi zi." not sure if it was considered a reply.
Ghost Li smiled, waved his right hand, controlled the Soul Devourer magical treasure, turned into a green light, flew away like lightning, and left the giant tree.
Like riding on the clouds, passing through the miasma, Ghost Li flew in the air above the death marsh, coming out from the inner marsh, slightly identified the direction in the air and then flew towards where the Ghost King Sect men were stationed in the outer marsh.
His flying speed was naturally extremely fast but the death marsh was really huge, after flying for less than an hour, all he could see was a vast sea of grass, a stretch of emerald green. Although he did not know how many death traps there were below but looking at it from the air, it was a picturesque scene, making one feel refreshed.
Just that when they were about to reach where the Ghost King sect people were, Ghost Li suddenly frowned, in the air, a familiar smell of blood drifted faintly, dispersed with the wind.
Ghost Li's expression changed. With a light whistle, the green light under his feet grew brighter and he rushed down from the sky.
The sharp green light, descended from the sky, bringing with it an intense gust of wind, flew past the green grass and pond, the invisible wind, blew the sea of grass to the sides, on the water surface, waves of ripples were formed.
Very soon, Ghost Li saw where the Ghost King sect people were gathered, saw that many people were still gathered there, it seemed that at least most of them were still safe and sound, then he was half relieved.
At this moment, the Ghost King sect disciples also noticed Ghost Li descending from the sky and one by one stood up.
Ghost Li landed and stood on the ground but his first reaction, was to frown even tighter. The smell of blood here, was actually extremely strong, seemed like the smell of blood that he had smelled earlier, was emitted from here.
The group of Ghost King sect disciples beside, all lowered their heads and stood solemnly, although Ghost Li did not kill indiscriminately these few years but he cultivated in Evil Way, his temperament changed greatly, his body would uncontrollably emit a cold and callous aura, in Ghost King sect, other than the sect head Ghost King, the other person whom the ordinary disciples respected the most, was instead him this rising star.
At this moment, a person walked out from the crowd, it was a young man, sharp eyes and sword-like brows, rather handsome, it was YanHui.
He walked up and bowed to Ghost Li, said, "Deputy sect head, you are back."
Ghost Li nodded and said, "What happened here?"
YanHui wanted to speak but stopped, looked at Ghost Li, Ghost Li understood and walked forward, YanHui looked around, loudly said, "Deputy sect head is back, everyone stay at your posts, don't panic."
The crowd responded in unison and dispersed.
YanHui quickly caught up with Ghost Li, quietly said, "Follow me."
After speaking, he strode to the right side of the secluded area, after walking for a while, they came to a place where the grass was lush, the wild grass was almost half a person's height, there was no one around but the smell of blood in the air, was getting heavier.
Ghost Li looked at YanHui, YanHui's face was also slightly pale, quietly said, "Look for yourself." Speaking, he walked to that patch of grass, stretched out his hand and pushed the wild grass aside.
Ghost Li slowly walked forward, looked into that patch of grass, instantly his countenance changed greatly, this patch of grass looked no different from the surroundings but in the middle, it was all dyed bright red with human blood, the smell of blood assaulted his nostrils, making him want to vomit. And under the thick grass, there were thirteen human corpses piled up, the state of their deaths unbearable to look at, almost every one of their bodies were broken into pieces.
Even though Ghost Li had been in the Evil Sect for these few years and was used to seeing bloodshed but this kind of cruel methods, it was the first time he saw it.
He closed his eyes, composed himself and then his face regained its calmness, slowly walked forward and carefully examined the corpses.
YanHui followed behind him, quietly said, "These disciples were arranged to guard here last night, this place is the furthest from where our main troops are, they are the furthest informants we have set up, these people are also quite capable. Unexpectedly in one night last night, without a sound, they were all slaughtered. "
Ghost Li's face darkened, his eyes gradually turned cold, slowly said, "Who is the murderer, do you have any clue?"
YanHui did not answer immediately, instead said, "Deputy head, come here and take a look." Ghost Li glanced at him, saw YanHui walking deeper into the grass, stepping over these unbearable corpses, in a deeper part of the grass, there was another corpse but this person's corpse was relatively intact, only his left hand was missing.
Ghost Li's eyes twitched, he knew this person, his name was Xu Chonghai, one of his highly skilled subordinates, unexpectedly he also died here.
YanHui walked to Xu Chonghai, said, "You look."
Ghost Li walked nearer, looked down, saw beside Xu Chonghai's head, his remaining right hand scribbled two words on the ground:
Fish, monster.
That 'fish' word was still clear but the second 'monster' word was already blurred, seemed like Xu Chonghai was already exhausted.
"Fish monster?" Ghost Li frowned.
YanHui nodded, said, "I also don't know what this means? Don't tell me there are actually fish monsters nearby but after discovering them today, I immediately searched the surroundings but didn't find any trace of fish monsters. "
Ghost Li slowly turned and walked out of the grass, YanHui followed. The unpleasant smell in the air was still very strong but compared to the grass, it seemed much fresher.
Ghost Li took a deep breath, suddenly said, "Where is Kill-for-life Monk, why isn't he here?"
YanHui was silent for a while, said, "After he saw this scene in the morning, he flew into a rage, later on from Xu Chonghai's hand gestures, he somehow guessed that those mysterious fish monsters were heading south, so he chased after them alone, I tried to persuade him but he didn't listen. And … "
Halfway through his sentence, he suddenly stopped.
Ghost Li glanced at him, said, "What is it?"
A trace of hatred flashed across YanHui's face, said, "Originally deputy head you had given strict orders that before you return, we cannot have any conflict with HeHuan Sect and Wan Du Clan but this morning's murder, I felt most likely it was done by either Wan Du Clan or HeHuan Sect, so I secretly brought some people to their location, wanted to investigate, if it was really done by them, naturally we will take revenge."
Ghost Li indifferently said, "It happened suddenly, you are not wrong. Then after you went, what was the result? "
YanHui hesitated for a while, said, "This, was greatly out of my expectation. Wan Du Clan's men, for some unknown reason, had all retreated out of the death marsh the day before, and HeHuan Sect, "he looked at Ghost Li, quietly said," It seemed like the same thing happened to us, more than twenty people died. "
Ghost Li's countenance changed slightly, said, "There is such a thing?"
YanHui said, "Yes, I personally investigated and then came back."
Ghost Li did not speak, stood there, seemed to be deep in thought. YanHui did not dare to disturb but after a long time, Ghost Li still did not speak, could not help but softly said, "Deputy head, what should we do now?"
Ghost Li did not directly answer him, instead as if he suddenly thought of something, turned and looked at him, said, "Before I returned, did Ghost King sect head come here?"
YanHui's countenance changed and then nodded, said, "Yes."
A faint glint flashed across Ghost Li's eyes, said, "What did he say?"
YanHui said, "Sect head came with Qing Long and Zhu Que the two holy envoys, he came to the vicinity to take a look at the situation, his expression was very ugly but in the end he only said, all the matters here, will be handled by deputy head, and then left with the two holy envoys."
Ghost Li was expressionless, another period of silence, YanHui naturally still did not know about the subtle relationship between Ghost King and Ghost Li, and could only watch him from the side.
After a while, Ghost Li nodded and said, "You have handled this matter very well. Now that the death marsh matter has come to an end, from now onwards, immediately bring your subordinates and leave this place, turn back to Majestic Fox Mountain. "
YanHui nodded and said, "Then deputy head what about you?"
Ghost Li turned his head, looked at the white clouds in the horizon, that place looked spotlessly white and flawless, who would have thought that under it, there would be so many bloody things happening?
He indifferently said, "Kill-the-living Monk although a little rash but his tracking skills are unique. These fish monsters are of unknown origin and also killed my subordinates, naturally I have to investigate further. "
YanHui lowered his head behind, said, "Yes."
Ghost Li nodded and said, "You go." After speaking, his eyes gradually looked towards the south, the sea of grass there was vast, the wind blew past the death marsh, not knowing what secrets were hidden there?
Unexpectedly, in his mind, suddenly appeared a few days ago, when he, Jin PingEr and Qin WuYan were secretly meeting, that mysterious fish-headed strange person who suddenly attacked Xiao Huan …
