Versatile Mage: I Awakened Nine Stars

Chapter 258: Ancient Capital Incident
"what?!"

Xu Shen's hand holding the ring trembled.

"Salang escaped," Zu Guangyao said helplessly.

"!!!"

Xu Shen didn’t understand. Even after all this, how could she still be allowed to run away?

Are these people in Gudu all good-for-nothings?

"Salang relied on this Painted Skin Ghost to keep his identity from being discovered. Unfortunately, Nanxing's curse mark was not on Saralang himself, but on this Painted Skin Ghost. Saralang broke the contract with the Painted Skin Ghost, and when our people found him, only this broken soul ring was left."

Xu Shen was speechless.

He regretted that he was in a hurry when he went to the meeting room for the second time and did not disguise himself well.

With Salan's ability, it would be very easy for him to obtain information about the three black-robed men who identified her.

"You don't have to worry too much. The ancient capital incident is over. Saran's influence in the country has been almost uprooted. If she is sensible, she will probably flee abroad."

Zu Guangyao smiled and the Painted Skin Ghost in the ring appeared.

It looks like a faceless human-shaped fog shadow, which occasionally changes into a clear human shape and then disappears.

Xu Shen looked carefully and saw Ling Xi, the elder of the Hunter Alliance, the cheongsam woman holding an oil-paper umbrella that he had seen in Bo City, and several images of foreign women.

Because the contract was broken and its soul was hurt, its breath was a little weak at this moment.

Zu Guangyao completely washed away the aura of Saran from it with a breath of death.

Then, he concentrated his hand casually.

The soul of Xi Shi, which had just dispersed, appeared in his hands and was allowed to be devoured by the Painted Skin Ghost.

"You'd better not use the identities that Saran used. This female soul is quite good."

"Okay, you've signed the contract."

The abnormal thing about the intermediate magic "Seal" of the Undead system is that there is no upper limit to the number of seals in theory compared to the summoning system.

As long as your mental strength is strong enough, you can confer it at will.

However, compared to the summoning system, the undead system also has many disadvantages.

It is like the relationship between a dynasty's monarch and his subjects. If the monarch is not strong, rebellion will arise.

Not obeying orders is already a minor problem. As the number of imperial titles increases, the probability of defection or even betrayal also increases.

"The Painted Skin Ghost is more ferocious than ordinary ghosts. I will also teach you the Soul Contract Method."

Zu Guangyao raised his hand and a stream of light penetrated into Ding Yumian's brow.

This was the secret method used by ancient kings to confer titles on deceased kings from all directions.

After use, the person who is sealed can never defect, and even after death, since the origin of his soul is still there, he can be resurrected by the dead energy.

Of course, such a powerful secret technique naturally has its price.

That is, the mental power required to seal ghosts is much greater than the ordinary sealing method.

But for a psychic victim like Ding Yumian, this is an almost negligible disadvantage.

With the help of Zu Guangyao, Ding Yumian used a secret method to complete the contract with the Painted Skin Ghost.

Then, she transformed herself into the appearance of Xi Shi. Her pitiful temperament and stunning beauty were so charming that even Xu Shen, who lived with her day and night, could not see the slightest flaw.

"Okay, let's go. Remember to tell Shao Zheng that Sha Yuan will take action during the battle with the sea monsters."

Xu Shen was stunned, but before he could react, Zu Guangyao waved his hand, and the world spun around.

By the time they calmed down, they were already on a noisy street.

Also appearing with them were villagers from Yangyang Village.

I didn't see them when I talked to Zu Guangyao before. I guess they were blocked by Zu Guangyao.

Having just been through the baptism of war, the streets of this outer city were in chaos, and healing mages were being sought everywhere.

"For these injuries caused by undead creatures, light magic may be more effective."

Xu Shen chuckled, scattering countless points of light.

This was one of the wrong constellations he had experimented with in his previous life.

It has little killing power, but it can make the light element spread over a large area like rain.

It is best to deal with this situation.

Xu Shen's incandescent light and the moonlight complemented each other, and the group of people standing in the bustling street looked like banished immortals.

Some elderly people who did not know the truth had already started to kneel down.

Xu Shen was so frightened that he quickly put on a mask and dragged Xiao Yumian into a homestay, then he secretly released magic.

……

Inner city. Asharuya looked at the angel soul fetus in her palm lovingly.

The little guy stood with his hands on his hips and angrily accused the ancient king and the holy city of their evil deeds.

After a while, meeting the angel soul's expectant eyes, Asharuya said: "You want me to be your successor?"

The angel soul nodded excitedly.

"No."

Asharuya gently shook her head and opened the summoning space. Inside, a sixteen-winged little angel with black air emitting from his eyes was staring at her viciously.

"Oh~ yeah~"

The angel soul was also very angry and flew into Asharuya's contract space.

Suddenly, two little angels, one black and one white, started fighting.

This scene gave Asharuya a headache.

One was a fallen angel who had lost half of his origin, and she had to work very hard to barely make up for it.

The other is the Archangel Soul Fetus, which had just completed three consecutive explosions at the hands of the Ancient King and was also in a very bad state.

It ended in a draw.

The archangel was furious. With a wave of his hand, another contract space was created next to the fallen angel's contract space.

This scene left Asharuya dumbfounded.

She had just broken through to the advanced level not long ago, although the third, no, fourth awakening of the space system is also the dimension system.

However, the opportunity to open up a second contract space has never come.

I didn't expect that today I would be cut open by this little angel...

The Holy Angel was furious, and refused to leave Asharuya's contract space, and even actively released the light of the contract.

Asharuya did not hesitate for long.

This originally belonged to her mother, why should she be forced to merge into that woman's body!
Just like the Fallen Angel gave her the Shadow Element.

This archangel soul also opened up a tiny piece of milky white stardust for her.

Healing system?

Now, she looks like the Saint of the Parthenon.

……

The affairs of the ancient capital finally came to an end.

Instigated by Zu Guangyao, Zu Nanxing, the sixth brother, secretly placed a curse mark on Salan. Although it was a mistake, it was the Painted Skin Ghost who took the consequences.

However, anyone who came into contact with Saran was infected by the mark, and then the mark spread from one to ten, and from ten to a hundred.

The little girl has been very impressive these days.

She and Zhan Kong were together, followed by a large number of royal guards, and they captured people wherever they went.

Of course, it is impossible that all these people are from the Black Vatican.

However, it is always a good idea to lock them up first and then screen them one by one.

Saran's influence in Shenzhou was gradually eliminated.

As time goes by, the impact of the catastrophe in the ancient capital gradually becomes apparent.

Angel souls are not controlled by the Holy City, and their successors may appear in any corner of the world.

Perhaps, decades later, an archangel will return to the holy city under the name of "Raguel".

However, now, it is an indisputable fact that an archangel has fallen in the ancient capital.

As the instigator of the incident, the Zu family has had a hard time in the Holy City these days.

On the other side, the negotiations between the Forbidden Spell Master and the Dongting Dragon King also came to an end.

The incident ultimately ended in tragedy.

A thousand years of imprisonment and the hatred of killing one's son cannot be dispelled by just a few words.

The blood of the Dragon King was spilled in Dongting Lake, and the dragon soul exploded, taking the three forbidden spell wizards with him on the road.

The deaths of the three forbidden spell wizards shocked China.

To make matters worse, the sea monsters are lurking in the east, and Kunlun is ready to make a move in the west...

Outside of Shenzhou, there is also the Holy City, which is extremely dissatisfied because of the death of an archangel.

China.

The prosperous and peaceful China was suddenly plunged into a huge crisis.
