“Luo Chen, you are being overly cautious,” Lu Shuixian also spoke up.
“If we are talking about relationships, perhaps I was indeed somewhat negligent before.”
“That is why I made that previous mistake.”
“But Luo Chen, exorcising ghosts and subduing demons is originally our Lu family’s signature. On this point, it is not up to an outsider to interrupt!” Lu Shuixian’s words could be said to be extremely harsh.
“Are you certain this child is a ghost?” Luo Chen frowned.
“Could I not tell that it is this haunted house doing evil, rather than this little ghost?” Lu Zihao also chimed in.
“Do we need an amateur like you to tell us?” Lu Zihao sneered.
“Furthermore, would the people of our Lu family not be able to tell if this child is a ghost or not?”
Their Lu family inherited their teachings from the Celestial Master Mansion. In the beginning, they were originally meant for subduing demons, eliminating evil, and catching ghosts.
To put it simply, they were experts in this field. And what about Luo Chen?
He was merely a cultivator, and a low-level rogue cultivator at that, who had not even learned orthodox mystical arts.
What qualification did he have to dictate to them?
“Suit yourselves. But Lu Shuixian, I will only say one thing. Bear the consequences.” Luo Chen did not continue to argue.
He had already warned Lu Shuixian and Lu Zihao. If these two still insisted on doing this, then he had nothing more to say.
“Kill him,” Lu Shuixian said directly, seemingly out of spite.
“You with the surname Luo, this time, please open your eyes wide and see clearly. If I kill him, I kill him. What consequences could there possibly be?” Lu Zihao finished saying this with a cold sneer.
Subsequently, with a raise of his hand, a golden talisman struck the little boy.
Instantly, a shrill scream rang out, and the little boy immediately transformed into a pile of black smoke.
“See?”
“It is just killed, that is all,” Lu Zihao said, looking mockingly at Luo Chen.
“To put it harshly, you are truly too timid,” Lu Shuixian also spoke up.
However, just as these words landed, the pitch-black smoke suddenly began to squirm.
Then the pitch-black smoke dispersed, and a man with long hair draped over his shoulders slowly materialised within the smoke.
Moreover, at this moment, the courtyard was completely silent, as if isolated from the world. The ghostly energy was monstrous, shooting straight up to the sky.
More than half of the sky over Wuzhou instantly turned completely black.
Lu Zihao’s expression first changed drastically, and then he instantly stepped back.
“Ghost King level ghostly energy?” Lu Zihao frowned.
Lu Shuixian also frowned. Neither of them had expected that this little boy was actually in disguise.
The two of them instantly felt somewhat awkward.
After all, they had just called Luo Chen an amateur, and as a result, they had provoked a Ghost King.
Luo Chen did not say much, but simply stood in place to watch the spectacle.
“Hmph, so what if he is a Ghost King?”
“Meeting the two of us, he has nothing but death awaiting him!” Lu Zihao said deliberately, seemingly to save face.
“A mere Ghost King, I can deal with him with a raise of my hand!” As Lu Zihao spoke, his hands tapped continuously in the void.
Lines of golden talismans instantly emerged.
If it were anyone else encountering a Ghost King, they might very well end their lives here today. However, their Lu family possessed the Tongtian Seal.
It was naturally designed to suppress this ghostly energy and evil spirits!
Therefore, under Lu Zihao’s continuous tapping, the golden talismans instantly shone brightly and charged directly at the man within the black smoke.
Just as the golden talismans approached, the man within the smoke finally opened his eyes.
Suddenly, a wave of cold air struck, making even Lu Shuixian unable to resist shivering.
“The Tongtian Seal?” An old voice rang out!
“Heh, the Tongtian Seal?” The man gave a cold sneer.
“A mere Tongtian Seal dares to disturb my pure cultivation?”
“Ruining my good deeds?” As the man spoke, he pointed a finger forward.
Golden light radiated in the void, and a single golden talisman suddenly emerged, immediately crashing towards Lu Zihao’s golden talismans.
Lu Zihao’s golden talismans were densely packed. This strike, at the very least, should have been enough to obliterate the body and soul of a Divine Communicator.
However, this man had only one golden talisman, but it was immensely huge, directly crushing Lu Zihao’s golden talismans with an overwhelming force!
Then, with a loud bang, it struck Lu Zihao directly in the body.
“Ugh!” Spitting a mouthful of fresh blood, Lu Zihao was sent flying, crashing into the wall of the courtyard house, and then falling to the ground.
“How do you also know the Tongtian Seal?” Lu Shuixian cried out in shock.
As for Lu Zihao, he was shocked to an unparalleled degree!
This Ghost King actually knew the Tongtian Seal, and his mastery of it was even higher than that of his father, Lu Chuan, and his grandfather, Lu Heshan!
“How could I not know the Tongtian Seal?” The man seemed extremely furious.
“Your Lu family’s Tongtian Seal was passed down to you by me. You still have the audacity to ask how I know the Tongtian Seal?” The man roared fiercely.
With a raise of his hand, Lu Zihao flew directly over and was grabbed by the top of his head, lifted into mid-air by the man!
“You dare to ruin my Dao body?”
“You cannot even tell the difference between a Dao body and a ghost, and you still have the nerve to catch ghosts?” The man stared at Lu Zihao.
Dao body?
Lu Shuixian was suddenly stunned, looking at the man before her in utter astonishment.
She was completely bewildered.
In the cultivation world, when some people could not break through their realms, they would choose to hide themselves within a Dao body. Such a Dao body would often transform into a small child.
This was the so-called rejuvenation in the cultivation world!
True rejuvenation!
However, such a Dao body would forget everything and become a genuine child.
Presumably, the person before them had also transformed into a Dao body and had stayed in this haunted house for a long time, which was why he had been tainted by ghostly energy, causing people to mistake him for a little ghost.
However, a Dao body and a true ghost had fundamental differences. As long as one observed carefully, they could be distinguished no matter what.
Those capable of condensing a Dao body were, at the very least, on the level of the old Celestial Master.
But none of this mattered. What mattered was that ruining someone’s Dao body was equivalent to killing their parents. This was a feud of life and death!
Having ruined the Dao body of someone on the level of the old Celestial Master, cold sweat instantly broke out all over Lu Shuixian’s back.
“Senior, I absolutely…”
“Stop giving me your bullshit! You scattered my century-old Dao body!” The man revealed a furious gaze!
“Bang!” Lu Zihao’s head exploded instantly.
Then the man released his palm.
Subsequently, his furious gaze turned towards Lu Shuixian.
At this moment, Lu Shuixian suddenly remembered one thing.
Although Lu Heshan was a disciple of the old Celestial Master, he was only a registered disciple.
Lu Heshan was not an old monster either. In fact, Lu Heshan was only in his seventies or eighties.
Furthermore, the Lu family’s Tongtian Seal had been passed down to the Lu family by someone from the Celestial Master Mansion hundreds of years ago.
When he was young, Lu Heshan had visited the old Celestial Master. Seeing that Lu Heshan had good talent, the old Celestial Master had accepted him as a registered disciple across generations.
This was the secret of the Lu family.
However, the Lu family’s Tongtian Seal existed before the old Celestial Master accepted Lu Heshan as a registered disciple.
Regardless, this man before them was definitely someone from the Celestial Master Mansion.
Moreover, once a Dao body was destroyed by someone, the person before them probably would not live much longer either.
With such a great feud, it would be strange if he did not kill her today!
