Chapter 667: It Was Him
Chapter 667: It Was Him
Miss Red Wine was still marveling at the abilities of the reincarnate, thinking that they weren't that powerful.
But the Meng family clearly felt that it was already terrifying.
From the moment the Golden Body of the Meng family's Prefecture Lord was destroyed, the four Great Officials of the Meng family led various lesser officials and rushed towards Salt Province. They had no time to tend to their own territories, and upon arriving at the Meng family residence in Salt Province, they had no idea how many capable individuals they had raised, including those who burned incense and conducted investigations in all directions.
However, at first, no one could have imagined that this was just the beginning. The shocking news and events from various places became so unbelievable overnight.
Meng Changsheng, the Governor of Salt Province, directly led his troops to attack Salt Province, and this single act alone shattered the courage of countless people.
Unexpectedly, several more messages followed, one after another. The Blood Food Mine, the granary, the Meng family's pharmacy, and even the Salt Province government office, which was loyal to the Meng family, all suffered disasters.
Even more alarming, there were already demons infiltrating Salt Province, setting fires everywhere. The fires were demonic, unquenchable by water or smothered by soil. Within the flames, crows seemed to flutter and fly chaotically, igniting fires wherever they went.
As the fire seemed to be approaching the Meng family's ancestral home, the Meng family's children and their guards became enraged and wanted to capture the demon who was setting fires in the city.
Unexpectedly, before they could even start, another shocking message arrived: "Bad news! A malevolent spirit has broken into the Meng family's residence and is trying to kidnap the Elder Matron..."
This news scared the four Great Officials and the Meng family's children, who all rushed back to protect the residence, fearing any mishaps.
But before they could even catch their breath, another terrifying message arrived: "Third Miss and Seventh Miss were kidnapped on their way back..."
"The kidnappers sent a message, demanding the Elder Matron in exchange for the two young ladies..."
"..."
The Meng family was enraged, and some of them were in a state of confusion. Over a dozen messenger boys had drowned, but there was no response from the elders below.
In their anger and shock, the most furious and filial Meng Siliang, the eldest young master of the Meng family, wanted to summon the Great Ancestor to kill the malevolent spirits.
However, unexpectedly, first, they still had no idea where those malevolent spirits were, and second, the incense they burned for the Great Ancestor was scattered by the wind, indicating that the Great Ancestor was also busy and couldn't tolerate the incense. This shocked them all.
Before they could figure out what the elders below were doing or why the Great Ancestor was not accepting the incense, another message arrived: "A demon outside has shot an arrow with a message, demanding the Elder Matron to come out, or they will tear up the Night Lion Cat!"
"How dare a malevolent spirit come to the Meng family's gate and shoot an arrow with a message?"
Meng Siliang, the eldest young master of the Meng family, was so angry that he felt dizzy and left the Meng family residence in large strides. He used the Blood Food Talisman and the Blood Guidance Technique, and quickly caught up with the malevolent spirit who had shot the arrow.
Although he couldn't summon the Great Ancestor, his abilities were still terrifying, and he drove back the malevolent spirit. Together with the guards who had arrived, they rescued the bound Third Miss and Seventh Miss. Just as they were about to pursue the enemy, a small ghost came crying with news: "This time, the Elder Matron has truly been kidnapped..."
"A demon disguised as a messenger boy said that you, Young Master, were seriously injured, and the Elder Matron hurried to bring people to help, but the demon took advantage of the situation and abducted her..."
"..."
"Damn it..."
The eldest young master of the Meng family was so furious that he almost fainted.
His eyes turned blood red, and he quickly returned to the Salt Province government office. Using the Six Aperture Spiritual Technique, he summoned dark clouds to block the sun, and as the dark spirits rose, it was like a black sun piercing through the yin and yang. Indeed, he saw the Elder Matron trapped in a certain place.
He immediately ordered everyone to attack, and as they rushed over, they discovered that the so-called Elder Matron was merely a puppet. Once again, he had been fooled.
At this moment, the Elder Matron's messenger ghost arrived, crying: "The ancestral home is on fire, and the ancestral hall is burning..."
For a moment, Meng Siliang, the eldest young master of the Meng family, was truly exhausted...
Upon returning to the residence, he found that the Elder Matron had never left. She was sitting in the grandmaster's chair, unable to catch her breath. Pointing at him, she scolded, "Which Third Miss and Seventh Miss did you rescue? They were obviously demons in disguise!"
Only then did he realize that the demons' attempt to capture the Elder Matron was just a ruse. The Third Miss and Seventh Miss he had rescued were demons in disguise, and they had infiltrated the residence and set fire to the ancestral hall.
Before things could settle down, more messages arrived, and the messenger ghosts knelt all over the courtyard. Taking advantage of the chaos in Salt Province, various officials had come to help, but their base had already been raided countless times.
Amidst the chaos, another message arrived: "The demon... the demon has shot another arrow with a message, and this time... this time, it's still about the Elder Matron..."
"..."
The Meng family, experts in ghost communication, was vast and powerful, not only in the Netherworld but also in the mortal realm. They produced countless experts and had a strong military force. However, all of this happened too suddenly, catching them off guard.
It was as if overnight, demons were causing chaos everywhere, targeting the Meng family. The Meng family couldn't even figure out if someone was trying to destroy their blood food and supplies, harm their people, or if there was truly someone planning to attack Salt Province.
No matter how clever a person is, they might not understand, after all, perhaps not even the one doing these things can explain it...
...
...
"Damn it, let's do this!"
At that moment in the Netherworld, Er Gou Tou's eyes were fixed on the Purple Great Guardian below. The purple guardians were flowing like a river, seeping into the City of the Wrongly Dead, and some were even being watched by the little ghosts within, who were testing the waters.
His heart ached like a beating drum, and he suddenly slapped his thigh and rolled up his sleeves.
Hu Ma hastily said, "Old brother, what are you planning to do? Our task is to protect the Dragon Well Master!"
"Him?"
Er Gou Tou looked at the Spirit Summoning Platform and said, "Why would he need our protection? Anyway, they won't be able to enter the ritual altar for a while."
"I came here because Miss Red Wine instructed me to make sure I bring you out, or else she'll scold me."
"But..."
"..."
He paused and looked at Hu Ma seriously, saying, "You have a way out, right?"
Hu Ma nodded and said, "I have an escape route!"
"Good brother!"
Er Gou Tou became excited, slapped his thigh, and said, "Then you won't need the escape route I left for you here!"
"I'd rather do something else..."
"..."
"Hey?"
Hu Ma was startled by his words, and just as he was about to speak, Er Gou Tou suddenly gritted his teeth and leaped off the stone platform, causing a gust of ghostly wind to blow, lifting his black robe high. In his arms, he held a large red gourd.
"That's right, that's right..."
At that very moment, Meng Family Patriarch was also startled by various messages, feeling a vague sense of fear: "Those malevolent spirits have been quiet for twenty years, but who dares to truly ignore them?"
"Could it be that they are angry because the Meng family wanted to create a demon mirror? Are they targeting our Meng family?"
"..."
But the matter of the demon mirror was originally proposed by the Noble Zhang, and the Meng family was only providing resources and labor...
Now it seems like the Meng family is truly taking the brunt for the Zhang family?
Deep down, he was still filled with doubts. These malevolent spirits were always terrifying. Recalling the events of twenty years ago, one couldn't help but feel alarmed. Now, after twenty years of recuperation, why did they choose this moment to go crazy?
Could it be... truly the Hu family? After all, these malevolent spirits were able to recuperate for twenty years because the Hu family had not been active...
Meng Family Patriarch's heart was filled with indescribable resentment, but before he could come up with a plan, he saw the malevolent spirit on the stone platform abandon the ritual altar and charge out directly.
Watching him with his imposing aura, surrounded by dark thunder, even the shadow soldiers and ghost generals nearby were startled and scattered in all directions. Meng Family Patriarch was suddenly enraged and rushed forward, grabbing the spirit.
"You bold malevolent spirit, come here and explain yourself!"
Meng Family Patriarch was a respected and influential figure, close to the Great Ancestor, and he was skilled in his own right. But if he could avoid a fight, he would never engage. The fact that he personally took action to dismantle the stone platform earlier was already unprecedented. But at this moment, he did not hesitate.
Amidst the angry roar, a large sleeve suddenly stretched out, growing larger, covering the sky and blocking the sun as it reached out to grab Er Gou Tou.
Although most of his Nine Pillar Dao Practice was used to support the Great Ancestor, the remaining strength was still terrifying.
"Holy sht..."
However, Er Gou Tou, who had jumped down from the stone platform, was suddenly startled. Although he had prepared himself mentally, he was still caught off guard by the rolling dark energy on the other's body.
He had thought that with his Life Spirit Temple and his crossing of the bridge, he could take this risk, but at this moment, he dared not take the risk. Suddenly, he shouted.
"Huala!"
In his hand, a compass suddenly appeared, with heavenly stems, earthly branches, stars, and rivers revolving endlessly.
As he covered himself with it, the hazy world seemed to flip over, and in an instant, the ghostly winds and mist were summoned to his side. The grabbing force of Meng Family Patriarch, filled with endless anger, was completely dispersed and flowed into the City of the Wrongly Dead.
But under the protection of the compass, he was unaffected, and with a swift movement, he had already reached the ground below.
"Yin-Yang Dual Landscape Compass!"
In that instant, Meng Family Patriarch saw the compass and suddenly became enraged, his eyes wide with fury, leaving no room for doubt.
The countless questions in his heart all rose up, and there was nothing clearer.
"You audacious Hu family dog!"
The indescribable anger caused Meng Family Patriarch to completely lose control, and he cursed angrily. With a swipe of his hand, countless feelings of panic and anger surged in his heart. This time, he was truly enraged.
"Ah yo..."
Hu Ma was startled by Meng Family Patriarch's roar and hurriedly looked up, only to find that Meng Family Patriarch wasn't looking at him at all, but was cursing at Er Gou Tou below.
He was momentarily stunned: "Hey?"
