Chapter 496: The Pursued “Evil Cultivator”, Exorcism Team Member No. 38
Across the world, there was only one person who used a ruler as a magic treasure weapon.
However, before the old man could completely figure out the reasons behind it, his body had already been gnawed to nearly nothing.
……
Outside the Small Town.
Seeing that the larger red dot representing the miniaturized array had disappeared, Chen Changsheng immediately reversed the array again.
Countless dark souls began to converge within the black banner.
Upon witnessing this scene, Zhang Yuhua hesitated slightly and said, “Elder Brother Changsheng, are you going to refine this Ten Thousand Souls Banner too?”
“Refining such things is harmful to heaven and earth; you might as well not do it,” responded Chen Changsheng with a glance at Zhang Yuhua.
“Although I don’t know how strong I was before, my intuition tells me that I generally look down on such things.”
“Even if I wanted to gain power, I would disdain doing such things.”
“Then why are you restarting the array to refine the Ten Thousand Souls Banner?”
“If I don’t refine the Ten Thousand Souls Banner, what do you plan to do with these dark souls? Just let them go?”
“These people all died unjustly, and they carry a lot of resentment. If we let them go, it’ll cause trouble.”
Hearing this, Zhang Yuhua responded, “Then we can help them reincarnate!”
“I know, but the problem is, with such a large number of dark souls, reincarnation is difficult.”
“Reincarnation is something that requires guidance; only those who have died a natural d*ath can be reincarnated.”
“Those who died unjustly have so much resentment that they cannot reincarnate under normal guidance.”
“Speaking of reincarnation, it would be great if someone specialized in ferrying these unjustly dead individuals; it would save a lot of trouble.”
As he spoke, the Ten Thousand Souls Banner was completed, and all the wronged souls entered the black banner.
After finishing everything, Chen Changsheng casually took off the Ten Thousand Souls Banner and then removed his animal skin vest.
“Snap!”
Chen Changsheng directly pressed the Ten Thousand Souls Banner onto his back.
“Phew~”
In an instant, a chilling wind rose around him, and shortly afterward, Chen Changsheng removed the empty Ten Thousand Souls Banner.
On Chen Changsheng’s back, a large tattoo of skulls appeared.
Glancing at his masterpiece in the mirror, Chen Changsheng nodded in satisfaction.
“Not bad, not bad. I’m quite pleased with this effect.”
“Unfortunately, such things cannot be seen by outsiders; otherwise, those righteous cultivators would likely come to hunt me down.”
“People like you deserve to be exterminated; killing you is to return peace to the world.”
A chilling voice rang out, and Chen Changsheng suddenly turned his head, discovering a man he didn’t recognize had appeared outside the array.
Seeing the murderous intent in the man’s eyes, Chen Changsheng hesitated for only half a second before immediately detonating the grand formation.
Using the explosion to block the unfamiliar man, Chen Changsheng pulled Zhang Yuhua and began to run toward the center of the Small Town.
“Elder Brother Changsheng, why are we running? That person seems like a good guy.”
“I don’t know if he’s a good guy, but what I do know is that he currently doesn’t see us as good people.”
“This isn’t something you did; we can explain it to him.”
“If you and I had cultivation power, then we could naturally explain ourselves. The problem is, neither of us has any cultivation now.”
“When you’re out and about, don’t casually hand your life over to others, even if the other person might be a good person.”
……
As the dust settled, the unfamiliar man stood in place, looking disheveled.
“What a sinister formation.”
The man said coldly, then took out a communicator and spoke, “Exorcism Team Member No. 38, encountered two evil cultivators while returning to the team; requesting capture.”
“How strong are the evil cultivators?”
“Strength undetermined. Both are young in appearance, not ruling out the possibility of disguises.”
“Preliminary assessment, danger level medium grade C.”
“Headquarters received.”
“The medium grade C Exorcism Team will immediately join you; please ensure the evil cultivators’ whereabouts are confirmed.”
“Understood!”
After the report was finished, the man put away the communicator, looked into the distance, and spoke coldly.
“This world is so filthy because of people like you.”
“I, Mao Shiba, must root out and annihilate all you stinking rats.”
……
In the wilderness.
Chen Changsheng and Zhang Yusheng were running frantically, while the Red-Clad Woman floated leisurely beside them.
“I know you have extraordinary abilities; let me go, and we can settle our debts. Also, I’ll help you deal with that guy behind us.”
In response to the Red-Clad Woman’s words, Chen Changsheng shot her a glance and said, “If you think you can convince me to let you out, keep dreaming.”
“If you help me a little now, perhaps I can spare your life after I recover my memories.”
“If you dare to negotiate with me again, once I regain my memories, not even the King of Heaven can save you.”
Upon hearing this, the Red-Clad Woman was filled with indignation but dared not retaliate.
Although Chen Changsheng currently had no cultivation power, the ‘burning stick’ on him suppressed her completely.
Moreover, this guy’s origins were extraordinary; even at her peak, she wouldn’t have dared to provoke him.
Otherwise, why would she be so low and humble in her speech?
“I can help you, but after you recover your memories, you must leave me a way out.”
“No need. I’m going to find him right now, but first, I’ll deal with you.”
Seeing the Red-Clad Woman making demands repeatedly, Chen Changsheng decided to stop in his tracks.
“Swish!”
The burning stick behind Zhang Yusheng was swiftly drawn out.
“Snap!”
“Ah!”
The burning stick struck the Red-Clad Woman, and her shrill screams resounded through the dense forest.
“Like a dog, daring to negotiate conditions with me.”
“I want to see how many hits you can endure.”
As the burning stick continued to fall, the Red-Clad Woman’s screams grew more intense, and her body started to become somewhat transparent.
“Snap!”
A ruler struck Zhang Yusheng’s back, causing piercing pain, and Zhang Yusheng grinned in agony.
“Sister Yun He, you really shouldn’t argue back with Elder Brother Changsheng; he will really beat you to d*ath.”
Looking at Zhang Yusheng protecting her, the Red-Clad Woman’s expression became fierce.
“No need for your fake kindness here; if it weren’t for your grandfather and grandson, would I have fallen to such a fate?”
Seeing that Yun He still refused to appreciate her kindness, Zhang Yusheng continued, “Sister Yun He, I will naturally repay what I owe you, but you don’t need to throw away your life here.”
With that, Zhang Yusheng turned to Chen Changsheng and said, “Elder Brother Changsheng, at the end of the day, it is I who owes her.”
“I’m asking you for a favor; just let her off this once.”
Hearing this, Chen Changsheng glanced at Yuhua and said, “Since Yusheng is pleading, just let her off today.”
“If there’s a next time, she’d better take thirty hits first.”
……
Eight thousand miles away.
A bronze green lantern suddenly ignited a wisp of black flame, and this flame carried an ominous wind, clearly not a good sign.
Yang Feiyun: “……”
“My ancestor, what exactly are you playing at?”
