When hearing the urgent cries of his servants, Huairou Gong frowned and stood up, shouting, “What are you making such a fuss about?”

A servant rushed in and saluted to Huairou Gong, gasping for breath as he shouted, “Master, there is a lot of black qi in front of our mansion, it seems to be both demonic qi and ghost qi. It’s very strange, this black qi can’t be repelled and can’t be dispersed. Once it touches our body, the flesh will break to the ground. Terrifying!”

“Black qi?”

Huairou Gong’s eyes tightened but didn’t say a word. He just walked out of the door. Su Yun and Huairou Muyu immediately followed him.

The group of people arrived at the entrance of Huairou Mansion. At this moment, there were quite a few experts of Huairou’s family blocking the entrance, and the servants of Huairou Gong in the distance. When they saw Huairou Palace Gong walking over, they all kneeled and bowed.

“Greetings, old master!”

The guards saluted and then cleared a path.

Huairou Gong walked over and saw a large amount of black qi drifting in the sky outside of Huairou Mansion. The pedestrians on the street had long disappeared and it was very quiet.

As for the black qi, it was constantly rippling and strange.

“When did these qi appear?”

Huairou Gong asked solemnly.

“Roughly the time of burning an incense ago, I thought it was an unintentional act by some Spirit Cultivator. However, I didn’t expect that not only did the qi not disperse, it instead became denser and denser. Furthermore, it had a very strong corrosive effect and could not be touched.”

The guard at the door cupped his fist and said.

“Do you know where it came from?”

“It’s from the black skull.”

“Black skull?”

Huairou Gong was stunned.

The guard pointed to the empty s.p.a.ce opposite the entrance, only to see a skull lying quietly on the ground, covered in cracks. At this moment, the skull no longer produced any black qi, but without a doubt, it should be a magic treasure.

“Someone did it on purpose?”

Huairou Gong thought.

Su Yun studied the skull and closed his eyes to feel the black qi. Suddenly, he felt that the black qi was somewhat similar to the qi coming from the black cauldron.

The black qi in the sky suddenly began to move. They quickly gathered together, and in the blink of an eye, they formed a huge evil face. This face was exactly the face that was seen in the Black Cauldron.

This truly gave everyone a fright. The guards of Huairou Mansion gathered around and surrounded it.

Huairou Gong stared at that face and said with a deep voice, “Green Ghost King?”

The dark face moved, revealing a cold smile. “Huairou Gong?”

“Haha, the Huairou family is getting worse with each generation. We’re both merchants, but I don’t know how much stronger Huairou Zangjian is compared to you.”

The sinister voice sounded, full of disdain.

Huairou Gong was not angry, only said, “There are talents coming from the Jiang Shan clan. Although I, Huairou Gong is weak, this does not mean that the Huairou family clan will never have capable people again. Just wait and see.”

“Wait and see?”

“I’m afraid I won’t be able to wait.”

The Green Ghost King laughed coldly and continued, “Huairou family, everything you have now belong to us, the Green Ghost King, not you. Huairou Zangjian with a despicable method acc.u.mulated it all. Now, I think it’s time to return it back!”

“What are you going to do?”

Huairou Gong asked with a cold expression.

“Ten days later, I will send someone to Wu Ye City to retrieve everything that belongs to me.”

Green Ghost King said in a low voice.

Huairou Gong’s face darkened, “Green Ghost King, aren’t you afraid of the Cursed Seal that my ancestor Huairou laid on your sword?”

“Aren’t you afraid of the Sacred Heart that is pa.s.sed down from my ancestors?”

“If you dare to mess around, you will die without a doubt!”

“Cursed Seal?”

“Hehe, even when he was alive, he couldn’t do anything to me. If he died, would I still be afraid of him?”

“What’s more, that Sacred Heart, why don’t you ask its possessor if she dares to use this treasure?”

Green Ghost King said.

As the sound of his voice faded, Huairou Gong immediately s.h.i.+fted his gaze to Huairou Muyu. However, at this moment, Huairou Muyu fell silent.

“Yu’er, give me the Sacred Heart.”

Huairou Gong said softly.

Huairou Muyu took a step back and shook her head, “Father, the curse on your body hasn’t been lifted. If I give it to you, they will immediately kill you.”

“Then use your Sacred Heart to kill them. I don’t believe that anyone can escape the attack of Sacred Heart!”

Huairou Gong said solemnly.

However, Huairou Muyu was still shaking her head.

She wouldn’t casually take her father’s life as a joke. Before Su Yun fought with Ye Moxian, Su Yun didn’t care about Huairou Gong because Su Yun wasn’t Huairou Gong’s child, but she was.

Seeing how stubborn her own daughter was, Huairou Gong opened his mouth, unsure of what to say.

In reality, he understood more than anyone else that although the Sacred Heart is strong, it could only be used against one person. If he used it to kill Ye Moxian, not only would he die from the curse, but the Green Ghost King would hunt the Huairou family. If he used it to kill the Green Ghost King, Ye Moxian would control everything and use his life to persecute the Huairou family.

The Sacred Heart isn’t enough anymore to save the situation.

“Hehehe!” Green Ghost King let out waves of complacent laughter, “Right now, the curse seal is unable to restrain me, and this Sacred Heart lost its effect on me. Now is a great opportunity, so why haven’t I come to take what I deserve?”

Huairou, 10 days later, my disciple Ye Moxian will come here and take back everything that belongs to me.

Green Ghost King laughed.

“Although I won’t use the ‘Sacred Heart’ on you, it doesn’t mean that I will just sit there and wait for death. No matter who comes, you must prepare them for death.”

Huairou Muyu was speechless.

“Dead?”

Green Ghost King sneered, “Do you think you can say these two words?”

“Better to take a bath and cleanse your head, and wait for your soul to be extracted!”

With that, the distorted ghost face started to slowly dissipate, and the aura in the air also gradually vanished. It was as if everything was returning to its initial state.

The expressions of everyone present were extremely heavy. Huairou Gong was the most serious.

Currently, the methods left behind by the ancestor to restrict the Green Ghost King were useless. If the Huairou family did not have an existence that could match up to the Green Ghost King, then the Huairou Family would be destroyed.

“This is bad.”

Huairou Gong sighed helplessly and murmured.

“Father, there is nothing that cannot be settled. At this point, what we need to do is to think of a way to deal with that Green Ghost King!”

Huairou Gong was speechless.

“Deal with it?”

“How should we deal with it?”

Huairou Gong shook his head and said, “Green Ghost King is a powerful existence at the same time as our ancestors. Although he went through a lot and his cultivation was greatly reduced, the current him is still extremely powerful. Besides the top figures in Bei Yang, no one can match him with such an expert.”

However, Huairou Muyu did not seem to care. She looked at Huairou Gong seriously and said, “Father, have you forgotten our ancestors?”

“Was the situation that our ancestors faced better than ours?”

“If he isn’t afraid, why are you worried?”

After a while, Huairou Gong sighed, nodded his head, and said with emotion, “That’s right, Yu’er. Perhaps at this moment, I really am inferior to you. Since you’ve already said so, then let’s think of a way. After all, we still have ten days.”

Then, he would continue to threaten the Green Ghost King with Sacred Heart. Then everything would be saved. Without the Green Ghost King’s support, Ye Moxian wouldn’t do anything."

Huairou Muyu nodded.

Huairou Gong did not hesitate and immediately turned to the guard beside him and shouted, “Immediately send someone to inform Taoist Priest Niao Lu to hurry to Wu Ye City. Just tell him that Huairou family is in danger of being exterminated. Please help us!”

“Understood!”

The guard did not dare to hesitate. He cupped his fists and left the room.

“Taoist Priest Niao Lu?”

“Father, who is that?”

"He came from Emperor Palace of Bei Yang. He is very powerful, has seen many extraordinary things, knows about the formation runes, and can not be compared with ordinary people. If he is here, at least he can help me think of a plan.

“Even though my talent in business is inferior to Yu’er’s, I still have some friends that I’ve made over the years.”

“Master Huairou, your friend is from the Emperor Palace?”

Without waiting for Huairou Muyu to speak, Su Yun yelled out in surprise.

Huairou Gong looked at Su Yun with a puzzled expression, “Does little friend Su know people from the Emperor Palace?”

“I don’t know him.”

Su Yun shook his head, then clasped his hands and said, “However, I have heard that my parents have stayed in the Emperor Palace for a period of time, and my parents have been separated for many years. If possible, I would like to chat with the Taoist Priest Niao Lu and inquire about my parents.”

“It’s not difficult.”

Huairou Gong waved his hand and said, “You saved Yu’er’s life, again and again, so you are my Huairou family’s benefactor. I will explain these things to Niao Lu.”

“Thank you so much.”

Three days later.

A middle-aged man wearing a blue and yellow Daoist robe with a long sword in his hand was invited into Huairou Mansion. It’s Taoist Priest Niao Lu.

It was said that Taoist Priest Niao Lu had left the Bei Yang and was working in the vicinity of Wu Ye City. That was why he was here so quickly. When he heard that the Huairou family was in big trouble, Taoist Priest Niao Lu rushed over without stopping.

When Su Yun arrived at the Huairou Mansion’s guest hall, Huairou Gong and Taoist Priest Niao Lu had already been chatting for a long time. When Su Yun and Huairou Muyu walked into the hall, the group started to discuss business.

In order not to cause chaos in the Huairou family’s business, Huairou Gong had completely sealed off this matter. Even the higher-ups of the Huairou family had not been informed, and in his opinion, it was useless for them to let the higher-ups of the Huairou family partic.i.p.ate in this matter.

Su Yun and Huairou Muyu stepped forward and bowed towards the yellow-green robed man.

“Greetings, Taoist Priest Niao Lu!”
