On the Sacred Mountain, Yang Xuan's Origin car was already on standby. There were almost a hundred people standing quietly on both sides of the car with solemn expressions.
Seeing Yang Xuan get off the car, these hundreds of people knelt down respectfully and said in unison, "Greetings, Your Highness."
Yang Xuan didn't find it strange. These people were probably newly sent to serve him, the Azure Sky Saint.
"You guys go back first. Leave two people behind," he said indifferently.
"Yes!" Everyone stood up and left respectfully. Only two people were left standing beside the Origin car.
"Who are you?" Yang Xuan asked.
"Your Highness, we belong to the Holy Guards, Number Five and Number Six!" the two replied respectfully.
Yang Xuan looked at their cultivation. They were at the peak of the Void God Realm and had yet to enter the True God Realm.
"Let's go to the Corpse Hall!" Yang Xuan stepped onto the Origin car and said indifferently.
The two trembled slightly. They had heard about the grudge between the Azure Sky Saint and the Corpse Hall. The Saint had just returned to the Sacred Mountain, and he wanted to go to the Corpse Hall. The meaning was obvious.
The Origin car started moving. After passing through a long and narrow tunnel, it turned right and an ancient castle appeared in front of them.
This ancient castle was strangely Gothic in style. Looking from the outside, it looked strange and grand.
"Your Highness, this is the Corpse Hall." Number Five opened the car door and said.
Yang Xuan got off the Origin car. He didn't stop and walked directly toward the ancient castle.
"Your Highness Azure Sky!" The Corpse Hall disciple guarding the door was stunned when he saw Yang Xuan. Then, he turned pale with fright and quickly knelt down.
"Where's the Blood Corpse Ancestor?" Yang Xuan said indifferently.
"This …" The Corpse Hall disciple kneeling on the ground looked at each other.
The Blood Corpse Ancestor had once tried to kill Yang Xuan. This was an open secret. Now that the Azure Sky Saint had come knocking, it wouldn't be good.
At this moment, the doors of the ancient castle behind everyone slid open automatically. Then, a sinister voice sounded, "The Azure Sky Saint has graced us with your presence. Please come in."
Black Qi coiled around and surged out from the ancient castle. It separated into two sides, forming a long passage.
Yang Xuan sneered and walked up the passage.
After he stepped into the passageway, the passageway behind him gradually disappeared, blocking the others outside.
Following the passage, Yang Xuan entered a ghastly and terrifying hall. On both sides of the hall, there were two rows of humanoid shadows. Upon closer inspection, they were actually stiff and motionless corpses.
At the end of the hall was a high platform, and on the high platform sat a black clothed man that was as thin as a corpse.
The black-clothed man stood up and walked down the stairs. Standing in front of Yang Xuan, he cupped his hands and said, "Your subordinate, Corpse Hall's Hall Master Hei Feng, greets Your Highness Saint Prince. May I know what brings Your Highness here?"
Yang Xuan glanced at him and said coolly, "Black Wind, let me ask you, back then, the matter of bloodcorpses chasing after this Holy Son, who instigated it?"
Hei Feng hesitated. After a moment of silence, he sighed and said, "To be honest, Your Highness, the matter back then was ordered by the Corpse Hall's Deputy Hall Master. I didn't know."
"Really?" Yang Xuan's eyes were cold.
Hei Feng said, "Your Highness is a heavenly being. How would I dare to deceive Your Highness? I only hope that Your Highness can let me pass through my Corpse Hall on account of the fact that we both belong to the Holy Empire."
After saying that, he waved his hand slightly, and two people walked out of the darkness while being escorted by someone.
One was in red, and it was the Blood Corpse Patriarch. The other was in gray, and Yang Xuan did not recognize him.
The Blood Corpse Patriarch had a dull expression. After walking out, he turned a blind eye to Yang Xuan, as if he had received a huge shock.
The other person in gray was even worse. His face was blank, and as his Primordial Spirit moved, it revealed a strong sense of fear.
"Your Highness, the Blood Corpse offended Your Highness back then. I have already taken him down and handed him over to Your Highness to deal with." Hei Feng said respectfully, "As for the Deputy Hall Master Bronzebeard, I have already crippled his cultivation. I hope that Your Highness can spare his life."
Yang Xuan did not pay attention to Hei Feng. His eyes fell on the Blood Corpse Patriarch.
The Blood Corpse Patriarch seemed to have received a huge shock. His face was dull, and he did not say a word, as if he was waiting to be dealt with.
On the other hand, the Deputy Hall Master Bronzebeard had some reaction, although it was fear.
Silence.
Yang Xuan was silent, and the entire hall fell into an unbearable silence.
After an unknown period of time, Yang Xuan suddenly took a deep breath, and then slowly exhaled.
He looked at the Corpse Hall Master and said lightly, "Hei Feng."
Hei Feng's body trembled slightly, and he quickly said, "Your Highness!"
Yang Xuan looked at him, and after a moment of silence, he said lightly, "Do you know my decision before coming here?"
Hei Feng lowered his head and said, "Your Highness, I don't know."
Yang Xuan smiled and continued, "Before coming to the Corpse Hall, I only wanted to kill the Blood Corpse Patriarch. As for the others, I did not intend to pursue them."
Hei Feng did not reply.
"There is a reason for everything. Since ancient times, it is hard to say who is right and who is wrong. Therefore, I decided to only kill the Blood Corpse Patriarch to relieve the depression in my heart."
"Your Highness is wise, Your Highness is wise!" Hei Feng bowed to the ground.
"Don't be in a hurry to praise me." Yang Xuan looked at him with a smile that was not a smile. "Because you will hate me next."
"Ah?" Hei Feng was shocked and looked at Yang Xuan in confusion.
Yang Xuan slowly stepped forward and gently placed his right palm on the Blood Corpse Patriarch's head.
"Hei Feng, tell me." Yang Xuan stared at Hei Feng and said word by word, "Who, is, he?"
Hei Feng's body trembled, and an undetectable fear appeared in his eyes. However, he said, "I don't understand what Your Highness means. This person is the Blood Corpse."
"Is that so?"
Yang Xuan exerted a little force with his fingers, and large chunks of flesh and blood from the Blood Corpse Ancestor's face fell off. Amidst the unbearable sight, a bloody face that was clearly different from the Blood Corpse Ancestor's was revealed.
Hei Feng's face turned pale, and his body trembled like a sieve.
After a moment, he suddenly knelt on the ground and cried out loudly, "Your Highness, I don't know. I don't know who used this leopard cat prince trick. That's right, it must be the Blood Corpse. It must be him. He was afraid of punishment, so he used a substitute. Even I was fooled."
"Is that so?" Yang Xuan did not comment, but he used his sleeve to cover Bronze-Beard's face.
Like the Blood Corpse, Bronze-Beard's face also became bloody, revealing another face.
"Then tell me, who is this?" Yang Xuan said lightly.
Hei Feng's body trembled even more violently. He knelt on the ground, unable to say a word.
Outside the main hall, there was an undetectable sound.
Yang Xuan shook his head and said lightly, "Don't you think it's too late to run now?"
After saying that, he gently stepped on the ground.
Boom!
The sound of the wall being broken sounded from afar. It seemed that something had broken through several walls and flew toward the main hall where Yang Xuan was.
Boom!
After another loud sound, smoke and dust rose. A big hole was smashed in the black wall of the main hall, and a person rolled in front of Yang Xuan like a gourd.
Cough cough!
The person who rolled in crawled on the ground and suddenly coughed up a mouthful of pus and blood. His face was full of shock.
A faint smile appeared on Yang Xuan's lips as he lowered his head to look at the person on the ground.
"Blood Corpse Patriarch, how have you been?"
