The hand of another world covers the sky

Chapter 154 Conspiracy Part 4
"You have to blame that cruel master of yours. It's not because of the sect's profound skills, but the old man himself can't..." The old man stopped ignoring when he said this, and looked at the person in front of him vigilantly with his small eyes. The young man seemed afraid of revealing some secret.

"You don't need to ask more about this, now you can tell me about Hou Wuji! Tell me, how can Hou Wuji, a mid-level star warrior, have the ability to defeat Lin Aotian who is holding the Seven Star Sword!"

"Hou Wuji? He...he has the power of the ghost king! Uncle, that day our sects joined forces to attack the secret realm of the ghost sect, and when we arrived at the ghost king's palace, we realized that someone had already made it to the ghost king's palace. The ghost king has been silenced, only a trace of the ghost king's remnant soul remains..."

When the young man said this, a smug and sinister expression crossed the old man's face.

"Hmm...you mean that Hou Wuji absorbed the ghost king's remnant soul?"

"Exactly!"

"However, as far as this old man knows, the severance of this remnant soul alone is not enough to pose a threat to a star-level warrior?"

Lin Aotian went on to say:

"It's not just the ghost king's remnant soul, the younger generation learned from Xuantianzong afterwards that Hou Wuji not only absorbed the ghost king's remnant soul, but also learned the long-lost ancient evil spirits from the Star Continent from the animal skin volume attached to the remnant soul. magic power!"

"What? There is also a volume of animal skin hidden in the ghost king's palace?"

The old man interrupted Lin Aotian abruptly, and asked impatiently, with an expression of resentment and annoyance.

"That's right! That day Hou Wuji emitted an extremely thin golden light, which was able to ignore the space force field I opened with the power of the stars. Presumably, it must be related to the animal skin volume!"

After hearing this, the old man held his short beard in his hands and murmured: "So that's how it is..."

After a moment of silence, Lin Aotian still couldn't change his violent temper, and said angrily:

"Trouble Master Uncle to give this junior another helping hand. When this junior recovers from his injuries, he will definitely go back to Jiuyou Daze and settle accounts with Hou Wuji!"

The green-robed old man just shook his head and sneered:
"No...you don't have to go! Jiuhou Wuji is no longer in Jiuyou Daze."

"How does Uncle Master know?"

"Recently, you don't know if you've been unconscious or not. It's rumored that the rivers and lakes are in full swing. Then Hou Wuji has led the people from Jiuyou Cave to leave Daze and come to the Central Plains, and seized the territory of the No. [-] family in the Central Plains in Xuanzhou City. He Jiajian is currently recruiting troops, and his power has greatly increased, and he also said that a ceremony to take over as the head of Jiuyou Grotto will be held in a few days."

"Damn it! This Hou Wuji really knows how to take advantage of opportunities. I took people from the Liu family in the Central Plains to the Jiuyou Grotto to find his bad luck, but I didn't expect him to take advantage of him and become a master!"

Lin Aotian gritted his teeth with hatred, and slammed his fist hard on the cave wall.

But the green-robed old man had a calm expression on his face, and said indifferently:

"Don't worry, let's settle the matter with Hou Wuji. Let's take a long-term plan. You are recuperating in the Western Regions. You don't need to do anything for the time being. This time, the old man will meet him in person. After a few days, the old man will go to Xuanzhou City. Go to the Grand Ceremony of Master Hou, hum! I want to see what kind of abilities this kid who doesn't play cards according to common sense has!"

Lin Aotian was overjoyed when he heard this, and hurriedly said:

"If Master Uncle can help me get rid of Hou Wuji, I will definitely defend Master Uncle in front of Master, and strive to let Master Uncle return to the sect as soon as possible!"

The blue-robed old man glanced at Lin Aotian with a pair of thief eyes, just sighed lightly and remained silent.At this moment, in his heart, a sense of satisfaction that everything is under control arises spontaneously...
