Wang Xiaoqiang thought for a mont, feeling there was no need to hide the matter, so he recounted the entire journey to the Immortal Tomb and the great battle with the Ghost King.
The four listened, sighing with emotion. Wang Xiaoqiang's experiences were truly life-threatening, but in the end, he turned adversity into a blessing, gaining the 'War God Hamr', a powerful weapon, and substantially increasing his comprehensive strength.
Yue Buhui said sincerely, "Little Qiang, if it weren't for you holding back the Ghost King and the elite forces of the ghost cultivators, we wouldn't have achieved repeated successes. This ti, you contributed the most!"
Wang Xiaoqiang rubbed his head, smiled naively, and said, "Everyone contributed."
Fang Qiu asked, "Little Qiang, where is Princess Hua Shao?"
"Oh, she didn't want to stay with , left without a word, and went off on her own," Wang Xiaoqiang shrugged helplessly. He dared not reveal the real reason for Princess Hua Shao's departure, which involved two other female students. Such matters were not suitable for public disclosure.
"Foolish! Willful!" Fang Qiu said angrily, "Acting alone is extrely dangerous. If sothing goes wrong, how will we explain it back ho?"
"Senior Brother Fang, don't worry, I will go find her imdiately..." Wang Xiaoqiang felt responsible for Princess Hua Shao's departure and thus spoke.
"Little Qiang, no rush now; first, you should collect the heads of these ghost cultivators," Fang Qiu said, pointing at the plethora of ghost cultivator corpses on the ground.
Wang Xiaoqiang said, "Forget it, too troubleso!"
Yue Buhui and the other two smiled bitterly upon hearing this. Ignoring the collection of spoils seed like a joke; if Wang Xiaoqiang found it troubleso, they'd gladly do it. These heads could earn them rewards from Old Master, which were quite substantial. "Hey... you deserve this, it's your achievent, how can you find it troubleso?" Fang Qiu said seriously.
"Alright," Wang Xiaoqiang replied, then released nine avatars, retrieved two dragon tendons from the Suru Ring, tossed them to the first avatar, instructing them to gather the ghost cultivator heads.
The nine avatars imdiately flew down and began collecting.
Wang Xiaoqiang said, "Senior Brother Fang, why don't you act first?"
Fang Qiu said, "Little Qiang, I forgot to tell you, I have decided that for everyone's safety, we won't act separately anymore; instead, we'll gather and act together."
Wang Xiaoqiang paused but nodded, "Hmm, it's for the best."
After all, he already had more than two thousand ghost cultivator heads as achievents, which was enough to boast about. There was no need to strive further; even if they were to return ho now, he had no objections.
Wang Xiaoqiang's true self responded to Fang Qiu then flew down, pretending to help. While the nine avatars were slicing off the ghost cultivator heads, he discreetly captured the ghost cultivators' primordial spirits into the Suru Ring.
Since so ghost cultivators' primordial spirits had perished along with their physical bodies, and so had escaped, Wang Xiaoqiang only managed to capture about five hundred ghost cultivator primordial spirits after removing the heads. Still, this amount was quite a substantial gain for him, and absorbing them could potentially double his divine sense.
Seeing Wang Xiaoqiang capturing the ghost cultivator primordial spirits, Fang Qiu and the other three felt puzzled. Yue Buhui curiously asked, "Senior Brother Fang, why on earth would Wang Xiaoqiang want the ghost cultivator primordial spirits?"
Fang Qiu was also very puzzled; the ghost cultivator primordial spirit is where the essence of corpse qi lies. Corpse qi is entirely harmful and has no benefit for cultivators, and should never be touched. Thus, ghost cultivator primordial spirits are to be avoided by human cultivators. Yet, Wang Xiaoqiang was collecting ghost cultivator primordial spirits, which left everyone baffled.
The four continued to harbor the sa doubts until Wang Xiaoqiang finished collecting the ghost cultivator heads, capturing all the primordial spirits, and flew back with two dragon tendons braided with the ghost cultivator heads. Then, they finally voiced their questions.
Wang Xiaoqiang anticipated their queries and was not surprised. He rely smiled playfully, took out a ghost cultivator's primordial spirit from the Suru Ring, caught it in his hand, slapped the little figure on the face a few tis, and said, "I'm capturing them not for any particular use, just for fun. Whenever I feel bored, I let them out and slap them around a bit... Haha, ghost cultivators and human cultivators are bitter enemies, causing great calamities to us humans. I collect their primordial spirits for venting, for self-entertainnt, that's all. No other intentions, haha..."
Wang Xiaoqiang brushed them off, smiling smugly.
If there were girls present now, they would certainly scold Wang Xiaoqiang as a pervert.
Even though human cultivators and ghost cultivators are sworn enemies, they have a boundless hatred but also adhere to certain principles and morality.
Generally, human cultivators wouldn't destroy the primordial spirits of ghost cultivators after defeating them. Although, so ruthless individuals would destroy both body and primordial spirit, but would never capture them for entertainnt.
Wang Xiaoqiang's approach was truly incomprehensible.
However, even though his actions baffled the four, they chose not to comnt. Ghost cultivators were enemies, and even though Wang Xiaoqiang's thod of tornting them was twisted, it was deed correct.
This showed he had a heart that detested evil, demonstrating strong willpower. Denial of his actions would invoke suspicion and criticism.
"I can't say I admire your wicked taste!" Yue Buhui said with a bitter smile, shaking his head.
"Alright, let's go search for Princess Hua Shao and investigate the whereabouts of the other students,"
Fang Qiu decided not to dwell on insignificant issues, making an imdiate decision, and with a flick of his sleeve, the Golden Page flew out, shining brightly, expanding with the wind, transforming into a mat-sized object and folding into a flying boat.
The five then flew onto it.
The Golden Leaf Flying Boat started, swishing away rapidly towards the front.
Now, the five focused solely on finding Princess Hua Shao, so even when encountering large ghost cultivator settlents along the way, they ignored them, opting not to sweep through. By evening, they detected the presence of Luoo Youshan and Su Li with their divine senses.
Su Li and Luoo Youshan were currently in a large settlent, engaged in a fierce battle with a group of ghost cultivators. This group had over a hundred ghost cultivators, with more than twenty ghost generals.
The sunset blood-red, the wind roaring, and on the settlent ground lay hundreds of ghost cultivators, the corpses piled up like mountains, blood flowing like a river. The entire settlent was shrouded in gloom and sorrow.
Luoo Youshan and Su Li's white dresses were stained with large patches of blood, looking ghastly. Whether the blood belonged to them or the ghost cultivators was unclear.
Judging by their current condition, they must have been through a prolonged battle, showing signs of fatigue...(to be continued.
