Chapter 494: 494, (third update)

With considerable force, Mo Qingyi lashed out with her whip, causing Zheng Chuyi’s head to jerk violently to the side as a gruesome bloodstain immediately appeared on her snow-white face!

From her forehead to her left cheek, a long gash tore through her beautiful features.

A pain so intense it felt like drilling shot up from her face, and Zheng Chuyi couldn’t help but let out a piercing scream.

Her face, it was probably ruined.

That face she was so proud of!

"Ah!" Zheng Chuyi let out a roar of rage!

"So noisy," Mo Qingyi said as she casually dug into her ear and snapped her fingers. The clamor immediately ceased to exist.

This too was a spiritualist’s ability.

To control the hearts of people with words.

Bond to that place, Zheng Chuyi convulsed relentlessly.

Mo Qingyi looked towards her with a faint smile, her left hand grasping the cold-gleaming Longsword and thrust it straight towards Zheng Chuyi’s chest. "Zheng Chuyi, farewell forever!"

Zheng Chuyi slowly closed her eyes, prepared to silently endure the thrust.

It was nothing more than death.

However, she was very reluctant, unwilling to lose like this, the Ancient Qing Jun that she was, to a group of useless bums. Countless scenes flashed before Zheng Chuyi’s eyes and a tear fell from the corner of her eye.

Mu Bai, wait for me.

I’m coming to join you.

Yet, the anticipated pain did not come. Zheng Chuyi only felt a powerful pressure sweep past her and scatter in all directions—it seemed as if reinforcements had come to her rescue!

With this thought, she suddenly opened her eyes and saw a cloaked figure standing before her, and the ropes that bound her had been undone—clearly, this person had saved her.

"Thank you, kind soul, for saving my life," Zheng Chuyi thanked the stranger.

"Summon your Hundred Ghosts Banner, call upon the hundred ghosts, and wash the Mo family in blood," the person issued a voice that was deep and seemingly genderless, with an ambiguity that made it hard to distinguish between male and female. However, one could sense that this was someone of advanced age, their figure slightly stooped with age.

By the sudden turn of events, everyone was stunned, but Mo Qingyi and Duanmu Zhe were the first to recover. Mo Qingyi flicked her whip, aiming to hit the shadow fiercely, but with a swift move, the figure dodged it.

"A bunch of little brats trying to take action against me is laughable!" the shadow said with a cold chuckle and a strange sound.

"Old man, such arrogance, does your mother know about this?" Mo Qingyi lashed out with her whip again, accompanied by a deafening bell sound.

It was as if the earth itself were shaking.

Everyone painfully covered their ears, except for the shadowed figure who ignored the clangor and kept dodging the whip while taking out a round object from his bosom and throwing it precisely into Zheng Chuyi’s mouth.

Zheng Chuyi, who had her hands over her ears, came to life instantly. She immediately took up the Hundred Ghosts Banner, "Hundred ghosts heed my command, I, Qing Jun, order a bloodbath upon the Mo family."

As her words dropped, the previously vanished ghosts surged back in.

"Moon God, after thousands of years, your ability remains the same, showing no improvement. Let’s see how I break your spiritualist technique tonight!" The shadow waved his hand, and again a tremendous pressure emanated from within his sleeves, enveloping and pressing down on all present.

Mo Qingyi slightly frowned, puzzled—how did this shadow figure know her identity?

"Old man, since that’s the case, let us have a proper showdown. If I do not beat you until you’re picking up your teeth from the ground today, I would not do justice to the title ’Moon God’!" Mo Qingyi drew a bow and arrow from her pocket.

The Sun Shooting Bow!

It was the Divine Bow used by the hero Houyi for shooting down the suns! The origins of this bow were extraordinary; after being acquired by Houyi who shot down nine suns with it, its fame shook heaven and earth, and it became one of the top ten legendary weapons!

The shadow’s expression faltered for a moment, but he soon regained his composure.

Mo Qingyi held her bow and arrows with a valiance reminiscent of the descendants of Houyi shooting down the suns, ceaselessly firing towards the dark shadows and Zheng Chuyi’s direction.

Boom, boom, boom——

The golden arrows, piercing through the ghosts, dissipated their souls within three seconds. Gradually, the ghostly aura had greatly diminished. Witnessing the power of the Sun Shooting Bow, the legion of ghosts chose to avoid Mo Qingyi, attacking the others instead.

The dark shadow kept dodging the attacks of the Sun Shooting Bow. Seeing that continuing this way was futile, he raised his hand and made a decision, suddenly creating eight doppelgangers to deal with the arrows, while his true body pulled Zheng Chuyi aside, seeking refuge in the darkness, observing the crowd.

"Benefactor," Zheng Chuyi slightly bowed with her hands clasped, "may I be so bold as to ask your noble name? I shall repay your life-saving grace on a future day."

The dark shadow looked at Zheng Chuyi and sighed softly before taking off the hood of his cloak.

In an instant, an old yet familiar face was revealed, causing Zheng Chuyi to cover her mouth in shock, preventing herself from making any noise.

She had never dreamed that her savior today would be the Grand Elder of the Superpower World.

"Grand Elder, how come it’s you?" Zheng Chuyi nearly thought she was hallucinating. Hadn’t the Grand Elder always wished for Mo Zhixuan to return to the Superpower World? Why was he now an enemy of the Mo family? It seemed he also wanted to kill Mo Zhixuan.

The Grand Elder nodded slightly, his voice returning to normal, his demeanor kindly, "Child, I am aware of the situation, rest assured. I came here today to seek justice for you."

Zheng Chuyi’s voice was choked with emotion, "Grand Elder, thank you." It was as if her grievances had finally been acknowledged.

"Silly child, no need for courtesy with the Grand Elder," he said, patting Zheng Chuyi’s head with genuine kindness in his eyes. He then put the hood of his cloak back on.

In a low voice, he instructed, "In a moment, you will draw the attention of the Moon God. Then, I will take the opportunity to seize her Sun Shooting Bow."

"Understood." Zheng Chuyi, having found her pillar of support, nodded earnestly, ready to leap into action.

The Grand Elder gently patted her shoulder, "Remember, everything hinges on this moment. Be very careful."

"Rest assured, I won’t disappoint you!" After saying this, Zheng Chuyi leaped up and appeared before Mo Qingyi, provocatively shouting, "You little bastard, here I am. If you have the guts, come and kill me!"

"I’m going to eradicate you today!" Mo Qingyi drew her long bow, squinted with one eye, and took aim at Zheng Chuyi’s silhouette.

Just then, the Grand Elder, concealed in the dark, suddenly leapt out. His right hand gathered a mass of dark energy and struck Mo Qingyi’s back with fierce force, and simultaneously, a sharp hidden weapon pierced into her back as well.

The Grand Elder, having cultivated for many years, and Mo Qingyi, just newly awakened, coupled with the fact that it was a surprise attack, left her unprepared.

Mo Qingyi hadn’t even managed to release her arrow before a mouthful of fresh blood spurted from her lips. The Grand Elder had snatched the Sun Shooting Bow from her, and she, having sustained a severe injury, fell heavily to the ground.

"Qingyi!" Duanmu Zhe cried out, hastily moving to catch Mo Qingyi.

Meanwhile, the Grand Elder, holding the Sun Shooting Bow, shot an arrow at Duanmu Zhe, intentionally targeting his leg. Consequently, Duanmu Zhe knelt on one knee on the ground, holding Mo Qingyi.

The immense power of the Sun Shooting Bow forced everyone back, and soon Zhou Xunian was also seriously injured.

The legion of ghosts had thus gained control over everyone.

Zheng Chuyi, holding the Hundred Ghosts Banner, stood triumphantly behind the Grand Elder, looking down at everyone beneath her, contemplating how best to torment this group of people. Especially Mo Qingyi, she would make sure she suffered a fate worse than death! Zheng Chuyi vowed to torture her viciously, to sever her limbs and turn her into a deprived human, only then could her hatred be appeased!

"Ha ha ha," the Grand Elder laughed heartily, looking down at everyone, "I have long said, a bunch of greenhorns who haven’t grown their full feathers yet, daring to contend with this old man. Even if the Phoenix Sovereign returns now, she cannot do anything to me!"

"You are mistaken!" At that moment, a clear, melodious female voice resonated from outside the door. Hidden in the night, her delicate features were barely visible. Dressed in a fiery red gown, she appeared as dazzling as a phoenix returning amidst a surge of flames.

Her black hair danced wildly in the night, lifting in the whirling strong wind.

This was an aura that belonged only to a supreme ruler!

She slowly lifted her gaze to the Grand Elder, her fiery red lips slightly parting, "Since a thousand years ago, I personally sent you to the abyss of hell, then a thousand years later, naturally I can do so again!"

Each word was filled with authority, shaking the hearts of those who heard.

Seeing her arrival, the lowly ghosts that had been controlling everyone panicked, scattering in disarray, no longer caring about the Hundred Ghosts Banner in Zheng Chuyi’s hand. The weaker spirits, who couldn’t flee in time, were so frightened they knelt and begged for mercy.
