Chapter 1064: Chapter 1068: God of Evil Wishes Chapter 1064: Chapter 1068: God of Evil Wishes “Thinking about it now, the deal you made with him back then was indeed a huge loss,” Zhu Minglang said.
“Consider it a mistake I made during my mortal stage,” the Star God of Yuheng said.
Zhu Minglang had nothing more to say about it.
“However, you should be able to get back your lifespan,” the Star God of Yuheng said.
“Actually, you could say that I’m not too keen on living too long,” Zhu Minglang laughed.
Sorry to have disturbed you, Evil Immortal Boss.
Let’s spar again in the future. The hundred years of life could be considered a tuition fee. After all, the Yama Dragon has not only fully recovered but also ascended to God principal.
If even the Star God of Yuheng could suffer such a loss, then it’s acceptable for me to endure a setback like this.
“Are you afraid?” the Star God of Yuheng began to laugh.
“Of course, since he’s an existence not inferior to the Seven Stars God, why should I stubbornly fight him to the death?” Zhu Minglang said candidly.
“From what I understand, Hong Mo no longer demands lifespan from people and gods. He has left behind the role of Immortal Peddler and become a Demon Lord Immortal. He can even manipulate the cause and effect of the world and control some gods’ demon calamities, so the one who took your lifespan shouldn’t be his true self,” the Star God of Yuheng said.
“Was it a member of his Evil Immortal Gang?” Zhu Minglang asked.
“Yes, let’s search for more clues and find out the Immortal Peddler associated with you. You don’t need to fear him–I will protect you from behind,” the Star God of Yuheng said.
For some reason, Zhu Minglang felt like the Star God of Yuheng was using him as bait.
If they could lure out the true Hong Mo, the Star God of Yuheng could take the opportunity to deal with this malignant tumor and retrieve the twenty percent of her Mana she had lost.
But being able to get back a hundred years of lifespan was good for Zhu Minglang.
If they couldn’t completely eradicate the Evil Immortal Gang, they at least had to execute one or two of them, crushing the arrogance of these Evil Immortals!!
…
The night was not suitable for further activity.
After all, they were facing such a formidable Evil Immortal Gang.
Zhu Minglang planned to take action again during the day.
Could it be that the wrong person was caught?
This was something Zhu Minglang had not anticipated.
In the Dream Hall, Zhu Minglang saw Hong Mo stepping in. The appearance of his Earth Soul was actually quite blurry. With a similar outline, Zhu Minglang subconsciously believed that this was the Immortal Peddler who had taken a hundred years of his lifespan.
Thus, the Immortal Peddler who had made a deal with him was not the same person as the Evil Immortal who had created the tragedy of Wei Zhuo’s family.
Luckily, he hadn’t mentioned the matter of his hundred-year lifespan in the Dream Hall. Doing so would not only have failed to sentence Hong Mo’s Earth Soul but would have also directly exposed himself. With Hong Mo’s abilities, he would definitely be capable of killing him, a God of Fuchen!
The path of the gods is also fraught with dangers; a single wrong step could lead to an irredeemable catastrophe.
Having returned to the White Frost Palace, Wen Lingfei had also come back.
She, however, brought Zhu Minglang unexpected news.
“An old lady who survived on Changning Street kept shouting, ‘Retribution is here, retribution is here,’ and afterward, I pressed her for more details. It turns out that most of the residents on Changning Street belonged to a certain family clan forty years ago, and a majority of them had the surname Wei, involved in a slaughterhouse business on the outskirts of the city…” Wen Lingfei said to Zhu Minglang.
As soon as Zhu Minglang heard about the suburban slaughterhouse, he immediately recalled the river and the pitch-black tile-roofed houses upstream. Even in daylight, that place had an eerie feel to it.
Wen Lingfei slowly recounted the horrific incidents from forty years ago to Zhu Minglang.
After listening, Zhu Minglang felt the hair on his body stand on end, and a cold chill kept pouring out relentlessly.
The other Swordswomen from the Miao Mountain Sword Sect who heard the story turned deathly pale, their faces drained of color. Accustomed to keeping themselves out of worldly affairs, it had never crossed their minds that the mortal world could harbor such dark and filthy aspects.
“Those Daoist boys inadvertently ate human flesh and organs from the river… It might have been alright for ordinary people, but for cultivators, this is likely an extremely heinous sin; after death, their souls will probably be dragged by the Ghost Gods in charge of the netherworld into Purgatory to endure endless torment from which they can never escape,” Meng Bingci spoke up at this point.
Zhu Minglang hadn’t expected that such a ghastly cause and effect lay hidden behind this affair!
In that case, the people of Changning Street weren’t turned into blackened piles of bones by Wei Zhuo’s deranged act of vengeance alone but were victims of a near-perfect act of retributive justice by the Evil Immortal Hong Mo!!!
Furthermore, it meant a complete defeat in my soul adjudication at the Dream Hall!
I hadn’t grasped the key to this matter at all, nor did I understand the cause and effect behind everything. Hong Mo’s Earth Soul had been agile and eluded me; no matter how skillful my interrogation techniques were, I was unable to bring him to justice!
The Dream Hall and the Heavenly Execution represented the Divine Power of my God of Fuchen.
However, if not handled cautiously, an encounter with an Evil Immortal of such caliber could instead place me in extreme danger!
“Death is not a release for them, but rather the beginning of a truly severe punishment; hence they fear death more than anyone else, seizing the lifespan of others to sustain their own continuance?” Zhu Minglang analyzed.
“They could also be working for a Ghost God, repaying the sin of their past accidental cannibalism,” Meng Bingci added.
Zhu Minglang nodded.
That is to say, the Old Heavenly Father actually only wanted me to execute one member of the Evil Immortal Gang, as this individual happened to be nearby and went so far as to steal a hundred years of my lifespan right before my eyes.
Yet, as I conducted my investigation, I stumbled upon the leader of the Evil Immortal Gang and even forcibly arrested his Earth Soul, subjecting him to an interrogation.
“By the way, that minor official from Moon City told me to let you know that Hong Mo has a brother named Hong Yi. The official paid a visit to an old scribe who had been involved in handling this case back in the day. The old scribe mentioned that a young man once gave him a Taoist canon as a bribe to reduce his brother Hong Mo’s punishment by a month…” Wen Lingfei said.
Upon hearing these words, Zhu Minglang immediately recalled from Wei Zhuo’s old diary that Hong Mo had a sickly brother, who used buying medicine as an excuse to garner Wei Zhuo’s sympathy…
So that was it!
The one who stole a hundred years of my lifespan was Hong Yi, Hong Mo’s brother, one of the Daoist boys who accidentally ate human flesh!
The two brothers of Evil Immortals!
Their abilities were quite similar but slightly different.
Hong Yi specialized in offering urgently needed items to people and cultivators before suddenly demanding a hefty price, which often came as your lifespan!!
Hong Mo was of a higher rank, like a God of Evil Wishes.
He fulfilled your desires, helped you change your fate, but the price came not merely as severe personal sacrifices but could also involve your family, possibly dragging down the entire clan with you into obliteration!!!
