Chapter 1424: Chapter 1411: With your pig brains, you still want to take down this young master_1 Chapter 1424: Chapter 1411: With your pig brains, you still want to take down this young master_1 “Alright, we're rich again.”
One of the accomplices rubbed his hands, grinning maliciously: “Those two chicks have fair, delicate skin. We can sell them in the Ghost Market for a good price.”
“Stop talking and get to work.”
A ruthless glint flashed in Li Ao's eyes, and his right hand emitted a burst of spiritual power, striking at Yu Ming's chest.
“So, this is your usual method of harming people!”
Yu Ming suddenly opened his eyes, a strong surge of spiritual power forming a spiritual shield in the palm of his hand and blocking him.
“How is that possible? You're actually conscious?”
Li Ao's face turned pale with fear, and he quickly retreated, attempting to escape from the cave.
Qing Yuan gathered green light at the tips of her right fingers, and with a gentle wave, the roots crawling in the cracks of the rocks seemingly came to life, moving quickly and tangling around his legs.
Li Ao's eyes glinted ruthlessly, pulling out his sword and cutting through the tree roots. He didn't have time to escape before countless roots emerged from the ground and wrapped around his limbs, suspending him in the cave.
Cries of terror rang out as his five accomplices met the same fate, all tangled by roots and hanging in midair.
Wang Meng and the others opened their eyes one after another, sneering at the scene before them.
“Tsk, tsk.”
Shitou clucked his tongue and mocked: “You can't even tell whether someone is conscious or not; with your pig brains, you wanted to dispose of us?”
“There's no need to waste our breath on them, just kill them.”
The two female cultivators quivered their sword tips, itching to stab Li Ao right through.
“Wait a moment.”
Yu Ming stopped them in time: “Let him explain what's going on with the Ghost Market.”
“No need to ask him, just search his soul directly.”
Infuriated by Li Ao's ruthlessness, Qing Yuan turned her divine consciousness into a Sword of Divine Consciousness and attacked his Sea of Consciousness.
Li Ao let out a scream, and his eyes glazed over, losing consciousness.
As Qing Yuan searched Li Ao's memory, acquiring a trove of information and recalling her Sword of Divine Consciousness, her handsome face darkened, and her anger surged.
“What's going on?”
Her three apprentices, Mu Fan, Lin Ruize, and Pei Qingyu, closed in around her.
“They're ghost cultivators.”
Qing Yuan was disgusted: “Just like the Xuanyin Sect, they sell human women to the Ghost Realm as ghost slaves for the Ghost Generals to control, profiting from it.”
“Ghost cultivators?”
Everyone in the cave gasped in unison, and the two female cultivators turned pale with fright.
Shitou asked subconsciously: “Where is the Ghost Market?”
“In the Abyssal Sea beneath Sudden Wind Ocean, it's a hidden passage between the Human Realm and the Ghost Realm.”
Qing Yuan's anger boiled: “Like Nether Mountain in Monster Forest, ordinary people can't go there. Only ghost cultivators who get permission from the Ghost Generals can freely come and go.”
“Evil scoundrels, they deserve to die!”
Wang Meng, hating evil with a passion, waved his hand and shot out six streams of sword energy, sending the six bound villains crashing down from the cave ceiling.
“Destroy their Spirit Roots and throw them into the sea to feed the fish!”
Feng Yi and the others were also furious, deciding to give the villains a taste of their own medicine.
The swift sword light cut through the six people's meridians.
The six of them grabbed a ghost cultivator each, rode their Flying Swords into the air, and flew towards the coastline.
“Yin'er.”
Qing Yuan gave the order in secret: “Check if anyone else has been harmed or if there are any more accomplices of the ghost cultivators on the island.”
“Understood.”
The Little Kingfisher received the order without any delay, darting like a dazzling multicolored light, shuttling quickly across the island.
“Master, there are indeed more fish that have slipped through the net.”
The news came back quickly: “There are two more caves with people poisoned; some have already been killed.”
“Save them!”
Qing Yuan's heart sank, and she turned into a streak of light, flying out of the cave.
*
In an instant, the island was filled with eerie, ghostly energy, and the sound of wailing ghosts filled the air.
