Chapter 225
The Ghost Controlling Old Ancestor didn’t believe a word of Jiang Chen’s.
Justice over familial ties?
It seemed more like he was destroying the Ghost Controlling Sect, wasn’t it? Otherwise, why would the Ghost Controlling Sect be in such disarray as soon as Jiang Chen arrived?
Not wanting to argue with Jiang Chen, the Ghost Controlling Old Ancestor began to ponder.
Should she give the Nine Abyss Soul Embryos or not?
If she gave them, wouldn’t the Ghost Controlling Sect lose all its dignity?
But if she didn’t…
The Ghost Controlling Old Ancestor’s eyes narrowed slightly, a few sharp glints passing through them.
If she didn’t give them, considering the current reputation of the Jiuyan Sect, they might indeed start a sect war.
Although the Ghost Controlling Sect was prepared for this, they hadn’t yet reached an agreement with the Ghost Ridge Soul Abyss, so for safety’s sake, it was better to stabilize the Jiuyan Sect first.After weighing her options, the Ghost Controlling Old Ancestor decided to give not just two but three.
By doing so, she could buy time and confuse the Jiuyan Sect.
Three Nine Abyss Soul Embryos were all the Ghost Controlling Sect had.
Giving them away would be humiliating, but one cannot catch a wolf without sacrificing some bait.
The lost dignity could all be regained once the Jiuyan Sect was destroyed!
With this in mind, the Ghost Controlling Old Ancestor immediately summoned a Supreme Elder and instructed him to take the Nine Abyss Soul Embryos to the Jiuyan Sect after letting Jiang Chen leave.
She repeatedly instructed him that he must keep a low profile at the Jiuyan Sect and prioritize the lives of the sect elders above all else.
At first, this Supreme Elder was also furious.
But after understanding the Ghost Controlling Old Ancestor’s plan, the hall was filled with sinister laughter.
……
Several days later, the second highest elder of the Ghost Controlling Sect arrived at the Jiuyan Demonic Sect.
Xiao Ting, leading a group of Supreme Elders and holding various spiritual weapons, showcased the Jiuyan Sect’s hospitality.
In the end, after the Ghost Controlling Sect Supreme Elder left behind the Nine Abyss Soul Embryos, he took the hostages away.
Inside the newly built Sect Master hall of the Second Peak, twelve Supreme Elders gathered.
Xiao Ting looked at the three Nine Abyss Soul Embryos obtained through extortion and pondered for a long time.
It seemed that he had discovered the password to wealth!
He had thought that the Ghost Controlling Sect would rather be destroyed than compromised easily.
Unexpectedly, the other party was so straightforward and even paid more than the demanded ransom.
This kind of thing could definitely be done more in the future!
Now that the Jiuyan Sect had truly become a Demonic Sect, the sect members had also understood the truth of this world.
Naturally, they would do whatever made them comfortable.
“I feel that the Ghost Controlling Sect must be plotting something,” one Supreme Elder reminded.
Xiao Ting was, of course, well aware of this.
But he didn’t care!
After all, no matter how much the Ghost Controlling Sect struggled, they were nothing more than grasshoppers after autumn in the face of absolute power. Ꞧ𝐚Ν𝘖𝐁Ёᶊ
What’s more… Now the Jiuyan Old Ancestor was not in the Jiuyan Sect but near the Ghost Controlling Sect.
He captured a few disciples of the Ghost Controlling Sect from time to time and then forced them to watch the nine cycles of reincarnation.
Xiao Ting and the others found this very comfortable.
After all, they had been forced to watch the nine cycles of reincarnation several times, and the indescribable pain was still fresh in their memory.
Just thinking about it and klnowing that many people were experiencing the pain they had gone through, they felt very comfortable!
“Quickly inform the Old Ancestor of this matter, then send one Nine Abyss Soul Embryo,” Xiao Ting finally decided.
……
Outside the Ghost Controlling Sect.
Gao Long, the third true disciple, was once again sent out to investigate the disappearance of the sect’s disciples.
He had just left the sect last time when he was severely beaten by Jiang Chen, and he had only just recovered his ability to move.
To avoid repeating the same mistake, Gao Long constantly reminded himself not to get involved in matters and not to greet anyone he met.
Especially those who claimed to have the demeanor of a great emperor, he must stay far away from them!
To be on the safe side, he even asked his master for a high-grade spiritual garment before leaving.
This garment not only helps him conceal his tracks but also provides a certain level of protection.
Feeling secure, Gao Long finally took steps to leave the sect.
His plan this time was still to wander around aimlessly and then find some random excuse to return to the sect and report back.
The main culprit was able to make a hundred disciples of the Ghost Sect disappear within a few days… It was clear that this was no easy opponent.
He certainly had no intention of provoking trouble on his own.
Throughout his journey, nothing unusual happened, which allowed Gao Long to breathe a sigh of relief.
As night approached, he planned to find a random place to rest.
Suddenly, peals of mad laughter echoed from the dense forest in the distance.
“Hahaha! I’m not crazy, you are the ones who are crazy!”
“Heaven is unjust, so unjust!!”
“Must we villains always be reduced to stepping stones for others and trampled upon by the protagonist?”
“Although I don’t have a heart for justice, I refuse to be toyed with by fate!”
“In this life, I will defy the heavens!”
“I no longer wish to die at the hands of the protagonist as I did in my previous lives!”
Hearing this, Gao Long immediately got goosebumps!
Though he only heard the voice and saw no one, he was very certain that right ahead, there was a large group of lunatics!
Without any hesitation, Gao Long turned and ran.
But he had only taken one step when he saw two people appear in front of him.
One was in a spiritual state, while the other looked mad, his eyes filled with malice.
Gao Long’s hair stood on end as if facing a formidable enemy.
“Rest assured, we will not harm you, but you need to see something!” said the one with a physical body.
“What is it?”
Gao Long swallowed hard.
“The truth of this world!” the spiritual one continued.
Then, before Gao Long could resist, he found himself in the midst of a bunch of lunatics the next second.
He recognized it at a glance that this group of lunatics was the missing disciples of the Ghost Sect!
“Junior Brother? Why are you here?”
“Elder Li, it’s me, the third true disciple! Zhang Long, how did you become like this?”
“Junior Sister Lan, why are you crying?!”
Gao Long kept shouting, but no one paid him any attention.
He wanted to escape but found himself immobilized, unable to even close his eyes.
Then, a silver screen several meters wide came into his view.
On the screen, he saw Jiang Chen dressed in white…
The scenes shifted rapidly.
The eyesight and memory of cultivators are far beyond that of ordinary people.
Therefore, even with such fast-forwarding, Gao Long still understood everything in the scenes clearly.
By the end of the first life, he was already in tears.
After the first nine cycles of reincarnation, he was extremely angry, feeling the deep malice of the heavens.
At the same time, he also felt pain.
He didn’t want to watch anymore, but the next nine cycles of reincarnation appeared again.n/ô/vel/b//jn dot c//om
In the end, Gao Long couldn’t remember how long he had watched or how many times he had seen the nine cycles of reincarnation.
The only thing he remembered was the pain that was like being carved into his bones with an axe and knife!
“Ahhhhh!!!”
When it all ended, Gao Long let out a roar.
He drew his sword and questioned the heavens: “Are we villains not worthy of living?!”
The heavens clearly didn’t care to deal with a nobody.
Seeing this, Old Ancestor Jiuyan smiled with satisfaction.
Another person had experienced his pain!
“Unexpectedly, villains react more strongly to watching the nine cycles of reincarnation than us righteous people.” Billowing Clouds Sect Old Ancestor said with some sighs.
Such a result was indeed beyond their expectations.
After all, in their view, villains with no good intentions in their hearts probably couldn’t empathize with the pain Jiang Chen suffered.
However, the reality proved that villains might not understand righteousness, but they could see themselves in Jiang Chen.
A character of a villain who is played by fate and trampled by the protagonist, and no matter how much they struggle, they cannot change their destiny.
“That’s enough, let’s return these people to the Ghost Controlling Sect for now,” said Old Ancestor Jiuyan.
