Chapter 792: Paper Money in the Sky
Chapter 792: Paper Money in the Sky
"Not good!"
Clearly, the evil spirits who were supposed to provide support had vicious methods, but unexpectedly, the Wang Family members were startled as well when they saw the paper money flying along the streets, as if they were being chased by debt collectors.
In the Imperial Capital, there were countless immortal beings created by the Wang Family, but these immortals were most afraid of life-stealing techniques. Although the Imperial Capital was once the foundation of Jade City, it was not yet the same as Jade City.
In this vast city, it was only supported by the purple aura, but because of this, the fate was unstable. Even without anyone using life-stealing techniques, it would still decline, let alone actively extracting life force?
As the paper money flew into the crowd, it was as terrifying as sparks flying into a pile of cotton. It was difficult for the Wang Family to create so many immortal beings in the city, but if they were to be destroyed by this method, it would be much easier.
No wonder the other party didn't care about the surrounding pursuers; this was a tactic to force them into a dilemma.
"Hey?"
Speaking of White Wine Miss, although she had just seen the Sweet Potato Burn and felt a slight relief, she was immediately startled. Why was this guy acting so crazily?
The most urgent task at hand was clearly to escape the pursuit of the Wang Family's troops together. She hurried towards Sweet Potato Burn, wanting to remind her.
Unexpectedly, Sweet Potato Burn didn't even bother to respond and kicked a cat towards her. It seemed like she wanted to kick the cat towards the pursuers and run towards the crowd, not forgetting to turn back and shout, "Little kitty, I'm sorry. I'm going to get rich. After you die, you can follow me again..."
"..."
White Wine Miss suddenly realized what was happening when she saw Sweet Potato Burn running faster and faster, even intending to use her to block the Wang Family's pursuers.
This fellow hadn't even recognized her!
She wasn't here to support her!
She was just wandering around the city and saw a cat being chased, so she casually saved it.
After discovering something interesting, she immediately threw the cat aside and abandoned it...
Angry, White Wine Miss didn't even realize that her voice had become somewhat shrill. She bowed and jumped onto Sweet Potato Burn's head, lowering her voice and saying viciously, "It's me. Stop fooling around for now..."
"Ouch?"
Sweet Potato Burn was about to throw the cat away when she was startled by the voice.
Suddenly, she shivered, "Did the cat just speak?"
"That's not right..."
Fortunately, she reacted quickly and immediately recognized the voice, "White Sister, can you turn into a cat?"
"Is that the key point?"
White Cat, or White Wine Miss, scolded without any mercy.
At the same time, her curved tail swayed gently, and countless white hairs drifted and hid in the night, like white whiskers or steel needles.
In an instant, countless masked people from the Lord of Destiny rushed forward, shouting and trembling, then falling to the ground, their fate unknown. The rest of them were also shocked and began to retreat, shaking their bells.
After all, White Wine Miss had crossed the bridge and possessed high natural talent. She had also secretly participated in several major events, and her abilities and experience were no less than those of the Life Fate Sect's Dao Great Saber.
These people with their abilities, at most, had only reached the level of ascending the stairs or entering the second gate of the Magistrate's Hall. When they encountered her, they could only expect to be beaten.
With the Wang Family's offensive temporarily repelled, White Wine Miss urgently asked, "How much paper money did you refine?"
Sweet Potato Burn, with her eyes full of greed, looked at the people in the Imperial Capital and immediately replied, "I didn't count, but I prepared less than ten thousand knives worth of paper money."
White Wine Miss was stunned, "Why so much?"
"I have many brothers under me..."
Sweet Potato Burn hurriedly explained, "Refining life-stealing paper money requires the evil spirits of little ghosts. I have plenty of those..."
"Now I have connections everywhere, up and down. I have ten or so Ghost Kings and two to three hundred Ghost Generals under my command. There are even more little ghosts who call me 'Grandma,' and many more who have heard of my reputation and left their homes to come and serve me."
"I asked them to raise flags and confront the Transient Li Clan, but they didn't dare. However, when I asked them to help refine paper money, they were very efficient..."
"Of course, previously, Senior White Wine asked me to refine enough paper money to fill an entire city, and I didn't know what it was for. But now, now I finally understand..."
"..."
"Was this also arranged in advance by Senior White Wine?"
Upon hearing this, White Wine Miss couldn't help but take a breath. Previously, Senior White Wine had told her about a plan he had set up, saying that the chances of success were slim and there were risks. But he had never expected that he had calculated everything?
That confused youth from the village had become so wise in just a few short years.
There was no time to investigate the truth, and she quickly reacted, saying, "Then listen to me now..."
"As much as you have, release it all. I'll help you, and let you buy enough in one go!"
"..."
Sweet Potato Burn's eyes lit up as she listened.
After doing good deeds and accumulating virtue for so many years, was she finally getting her reward?
Senior White Wine had led her to the Imperial Capital, a place filled with treasures, which was already equivalent to giving her a great opportunity.
Although I am from the Criminal Soul Sect, I'm not very familiar with the techniques of the Life Fate Sect. When fighting, I can't fully unleash my abilities. Now, with a Life Fate Sect expert guiding me from the sidelines, I'm about to make a fortune with this one billion paper money...
...Am I about to get rich?
As she nodded in delight, she began to utilize the items she had hidden during her seclusion over the past few days.
That night, the sky above the Imperial Capital was filled with pale paper men, fluttering like clouds. Paper money flew everywhere, creating a chaotic scene as if a snowstorm had engulfed the entire city.
...
...
"Something's wrong. There's trouble in the city."
The commotion in the city, caused by countless paper men, had led to a major disturbance. People on the walls and everyone else sensed that something was amiss.
The head of the Transient Li Clan frowned, his gaze fixed on the city.
Not only did he sense an unsettling yin energy, but he also felt a hint of familiarity.
"Haha, no need to worry."
Despite sensing something unusual, the heads on the city walls all smiled faintly, "The matters in the city are for the Wang Clan. They're afraid we'll take the credit, so they only let us assist from outside. Whatever happens inside, the Wang Clan will handle it."
"Haven't you realized it yet?"
At that moment, an elderly man in tattered clothes smiled coldly, "There's nothing to fight over anymore."
"We came here to see how the State Preceptor would use this religious ceremony to suppress all reincarnates and fulfill his promises to us. But from what I see, this ceremony is far from enough."
"Now, we'll see if the State Preceptor has the ability to reclaim the Twelve Ghost Altars."
"Indeed."
The head of the Transient Li Clan furrowed his brows slightly, "We agreed that only the Ten Surnames would come to assist, to boost morale and witness the wonders of Jade City. But now, it seems we're fighting these malevolent spirits here while he does who knows what in the city."
"If we truly fight these spirits, we might win, but it'll cost us dearly."
"..."
"Prolonging this isn't good. We've invested our efforts in the Imperial Capital, but what about our affairs in other places?"
The head of the Plague Robber Sect sighed helplessly, his gaze shifting to the chaotic battle array outside. With a light sigh, he said, "These malevolent spirits are increasing in number. Who knows what might happen?"
"If you want to see the abilities of these spirits, you've seen enough. Let's not waste any more time. Let the world witness the true capabilities of the Ten Surnames..."
Hearing this, the people around turned to look at him and smiled, "We're about to witness the skills of the Benevolent Sun Family."
The old man gave a cold laugh, not even glancing at the battle array below. He casually reached into his sleeve and pulled out a black cloth bag. Untying the rope that sealed the bag, he tossed it away.
A gust of wind blew, and the bag seemed empty as it flew straight into the clouds. Then, it slowly turned over, and inside, a raging inferno emerged, like a waterfall from the heavens.
"What the hell is that?"
Everyone was startled, looking up at the dazzling sea of fire above. Before it even touched the ground, they felt their bodies drying up and their hair curling.
"Five years ago, there was a volcanic eruption in Shazhou, with smoke and ash covering tens of thousands of miles."
The head of the Benevolent Sun Family, who threw the bag, spoke coldly, "There were several villages and a town at the foot of the mountain. When the disaster struck, if people died, it would be no less than twenty thousand."
"My Sun Family sent people to contain the disaster. Now, I'm releasing it here. Unless it takes two hundred thousand lives, this fire won't stop. Let's see how these malevolent spirits can stop it!"
Hearing this, everyone was shocked and stared intently.
Each of the Ten Surnames had their specialties, and the Benevolent Sun Family's ability to contain disasters was awe-inspiring even to other sects.
As the fiery cloud descended, the people below were terrified. The Capital City Defense Army, numbering in the tens of thousands, was about to be engulfed in an instant. Even the Second Pot Head, who had set up the altar, struggled to resist this heavenly disaster with his power alone.
Fortunately, at that moment, a man suddenly rushed out from the crowd, holding a large umbrella. He swiftly spun the umbrella, deflecting the falling fire cloud with his swift movements.
The crowd recognized him as Hui Prefecture Wine, a rare Temple Deity Incarnate.
With the power of the Temple Deity, he could barely withstand the disaster.
However, this disaster resistance had its limits. After blocking this fire cloud, he clearly showed signs of immense pressure. Hovering in the air, he shouted downwards, "Quick, run for your lives! In a few more seconds, I won't be able to hold it back. I'm getting out of here..."
Below, everyone was terrified and wanted to retreat, but with such chaos, how could they retreat in just ten seconds?
Amidst the chaos, a distant ox cart slowly approached the battle array.
A white-robed man with loose hair walked in front of the ox cart. Upon seeing the fire cloud, his eyebrows furrowed slightly, "The Ten Surnames' secret technique?"
"Interesting!"
