Chapter 47 The Evil Ghost Attacks
……

Chen Ningtai recalled an event that happened decades ago.

At that time, Sheshan Market had not yet been established and was still in the process of a tug-of-war negotiation.

And Chen Ningtai is only seventy years old, and has just entered the foundation-building stage, at the age of "prime of life".

That was that year.

Overnight, thousands of people died in a large mortal village southwest of Cangyiwei.

Upon hearing the news, he and his father rushed to investigate and found that the skin and flesh of the dead bodies were bluish-white, and their eyes were filled with fear before they died.

What is even more surprising is that more than a thousand people died, but not a single wandering soul was found in the village.

Although the souls of mortals are weak and almost insignificant, they will quickly dissipate once they leave the body.

However, if the emotions fluctuate violently before death, or if the environment at the scene is special, there is still a certain chance of the birth of a wandering soul or even a resentful soul.

Thousands of people died in the village all at once, and the deaths were so tragic. Normally, there would be some wandering souls.

Based on years of experience, my father deduced that these mortals had most likely had their souls sucked away or devoured before they died.

There are many possibilities, for example, an evil cultivator who practices ghost-related skills needs to devour living souls to strengthen himself, or sacrifice and refine evil weapons, etc.

It could also be some kind of soul-eating monster or ghost.

Although the Cangyi Chen family only governs the local immortal cultivation forces, as well as resource points such as spiritual veins, spiritual mines, and spiritual fields, it does not involve the jurisdiction of mortal towns and villages.

But no matter what, this mortal manor is within the sphere of influence of the Cangyi Chen family. With such a bad influence, the Chen family cannot ignore it.

While they were investigating the matter, the same disaster occurred in Lingbeiwei.

Therefore, his father Chen Xuanmo immediately organized the three major families to jointly investigate and track the matter, and launched a large search network.

After some tug of war, he and his father successfully intercepted a group of evil cultivators called the "Three Ghosts of Pishan", and a fierce battle broke out between the two sides.

Chen Ningtai still remembers clearly that the three ghosts of Pishan were a rare pair of triplets of monks who were extremely difficult to deal with when they worked together.

As he had just established his foundation, it was very difficult for him to deal with just one of them. He could only assist and cooperate with his father, forming a situation of two against three.

But at that time, my father's cultivation had reached the peak of the sixth level of the foundation-building period, and was only a step away from the late stage. The method he practiced was the foundation-building chapter of the [Red Yang True Art], which was one of the thirteen orthodox methods inherited from the Yunyang Sect.

My father's Red Sun True Fire was quite effective in restraining the evil ghost cultivators. With the help of the Xuan Mo Spirit Sword and Chen Ningtai, he was able to defeat the enemy with a small force and killed the leader of the Three Ghosts of Pishan.

It's a bit of a pity.

The three ghosts of Pishan were very skilled in escape techniques, and with the desperate protection of the eldest ghost, the other two ghosts were able to escape with only injuries.

Afterwards, they found one third of the remaining martial arts technique from Gui Yi's body, which was called [Underworld Fire Soul-Devouring Technique].

Judging from the description in the fragments, this is actually an evil cultivation method that directly leads to the golden elixir path.

Later, through further inquiries, they found out that the three ghosts of Pishan were actually wandering cultivators who had a chance encounter. As triplets, they accidentally broke into the secret residence of an ancient evil Jindan cultivator.

After the three brothers received the inheritance, they were very low-key at first, but started to stir up trouble after reaching the foundation-building stage.

Among the three major immortal cultivation forces in the Great Wu Kingdom, the Yunyang Sect and the Wanhua Valley were the two major forces. Both issued wanted orders for them and listed them on the blacklist.

For this reason, Chen used Gui Yi's head, the seized martial arts fragments, and an evil weapon [Underworld Fire Blade] to exchange for a large amount of contributions within the sect.

The power of this battle also impressed the ancestors Chiqiu and Guangling very much, and directly promoted the negotiations and progress of the cooperative construction of Sheshan Market.

After all, these two ancestors were not the founders of the family. Although they had experienced some ups and downs, they had no record of killing cultivators in the Foundation Establishment Stage.

All the past events flashed through Chen Ningtai's mind quickly.

His back was wet and he broke out in a cold sweat.

If it weren't for this information, he would have forgotten this old incident from decades ago.

Three ghosts of Pishan, no, two ghosts!
Linhaiwei!
These clues were connected together in Chen Ningtai's mind.

"How dare the Linhai Bai family collude with evil cultivators!" He stood up with a livid face and immediately activated the emergency plan.

He would rather believe that he made a wrong judgment and that all the efforts made in mobilizing troops for such a long time would only result in a false alarm. If the judgment became true, Chen would be in danger of facing a disaster.

soon.

Then two communication talismans surged out from the Qingyu Cliff and flew towards the Zheng family in Lingbei and the Zhao family in Nanyue.

Due to concerns, they could not interfere in the feud between the Cangyi Chen family and the Linhai Bai family, but they had nothing to say about the evil cultivators on the black list, as they were definitely of the same blood.

After the two ancestors receive the message from the flying talisman, they will immediately come to help.

Otherwise, their in-law alliance would probably fall apart completely afterwards.

"I hope it's not too late." Chen Ningtai muttered to himself with an unpleasant expression, then raised his hand and threw out a jade talisman.

The jade talisman rose into the air and then exploded into a ball of red fireworks, outlining the pattern of a giant blood axe in mid-air, which lingered for a long time.

At the same time, Chen's mountain protection formation [Small Five Elements Formation] was activated, and the power of the five elements in five directions rose up. The five colors intertwined with each other, mutually reinforcing and restraining each other, and merged into one.

A huge white shield enveloped the Chen family’s main residence.

This kind of mountain protection formation has extremely outstanding defensive capabilities and is usually not activated at will. But once it is activated, even if a cultivator in the Foundation Establishment Stage uses his full strength, he will not be able to break through in a short period of time!

But at the same time, this is also a furnace for burning spirit stones. Once it is turned on, money is being burned every moment.

At the same time Chen Ningtai activated the emergency plan.

In the southwest corner of Cangyi Mountain, in a dense forest with towering ancient trees.

The "Pishan Twin Ghosts" sneaked near the main house and hid, preparing to attack the Chen's main house in the dead of night. They also saw the giant blood axe pattern firework in the sky.

The two ghosts' eyes widened in surprise.

They had seen this fireworks pattern once decades ago.

This is a sign that Chen has activated a state of emergency, with the purpose of notifying nearby clansmen to immediately return to the main house for defense.

"Did we reveal our whereabouts?!"

The two ghosts of Pishan looked at each other, with disbelief in their eyes.

You know, escape techniques and stealth are the two's most proud skills, otherwise it would be impossible for them to stay on the blacklist for so many years and still be at large.

Even though it was daytime now, the two of them were confident that they would not be discovered hiding in this remote corner.

How did it get exposed suddenly?
"Brother, what should we do now? Should we retreat immediately?" Ghost Three was in a depressed mood, and even stopped saying his catchphrase "Hehehe". "Chen has already sent out a distress talisman. Once the old ghosts from Zheng and Zhao get here, it will be difficult for us to leave."

"But I won't give up." Gui Er spoke in a hoarse voice, his voice like a ghost's roar, "In order to avenge the boss, we have been hiding like rats for decades, but we have never left Wu State!"

"This is the day we've been waiting for~!"

"We finally waited until Chen Xuanmo died. Do we really want to waste this God-given opportunity?"

This time the Chen family was alarmed, making them alert. It would be more than ten times more difficult to launch a sneak attack on their main residence again.

What's more, the Chen family and the other major families will not give up and will definitely join forces to track down and intercept the two brothers, just like they did decades ago.

Just as the two ghosts of Pishan were feeling extremely upset.

In the distance in the sky, suddenly a small spirit boat came speeding towards them.

Their eyes lit up.

Since I didn’t catch any big fish this time, it might as well be a little interest first.

……

Time goes back a moment.

Inside the spirit boat.

Two men, two women and a child of two or three years old were laughing and playing happily.

Both young men were handsome and imposing.

Both women were very beautiful, but one had a lively look that made her seem a little quirky, while the other was a young woman with a gentle temperament.

These four people are the brothers Chen Jingyun and Chen Jingrui, as well as Wang Qianqian and Gao Peilian. The child is of course one of Chen Xuanmo’s great-great-grandsons - Chen Xinsong.

"Chen Jingyun, you have to argue with me, don't you?" Wang Qianqian put her hands on her hips and glared at Chen Jingyun in anger. "A puppet has to be realistic. If it's not realistic, what kind of puppet is it?"

"Wang Qianqian, Fourth Brother and Fourth Sister-in-law kindly took you back to Gao's and lent you a puppet to observe." Chen Jingyun was also unyielding and said with a look of disapproval, "Even if you have a different opinion, you can't say that the puppet is garbage in front of Gao's face."

The two of them haven't changed much in appearance compared to three and a half years ago, except that Wang Qianqian's brows are more confident.

It's no wonder that with the success of the Xiaoleihuodan project, she will have an additional fixed income in the future and will become a rich person in no time.

Isn't it allowed for her to show off a little?
Listening to the two people quarreling, Gao Peilian, who was holding the child beside her, couldn't help but smile, her expression full of gentleness.

Chen Jingrui, who was in charge of driving the spirit boat in front, couldn't help but cast a helpless look.

The two of them were also worried about the progress of Jing Yun and Wang Qianqian's relationship. Knowing that Wang Qianqian liked to refine puppets, they simply took them with them when they went back to visit Gao's parents' home, hoping to strengthen their relationship and make it a fait accompli.

As a result, the rice was not cooked, but turned into the situation before us!
They almost quarreled all the way back.
