Corpse Burier: I Can Nourish Corpse-Chapter 71 - 69: Three Thousand Blood Ink Corpses Revealed
"Elder Gong, why rush..." Ye Luo sneered coldly.
Gong Chi grew more anxious.
Proving that his guess was likely correct.
"Don’t worry, I won’t."
Seeing Gong Chi’s murderous gaze, Ye Luo hurriedly spoke to assure him.
Only then did Gong Chi relent.
...
That afternoon.
Wen Jiu bought some wine and food, using the excuse of visiting Liu Xiao to check on him.
He intended to use Liu Xiao’s hand for a task.
Some things are not so easy if done personally.
But if Liu Xiao were to do it, it would be just right.
Because of Liu Xiao’s identity and his near-sacrifice for the sect, no one would doubt his loyalty. His words would certainly prompt the inspector from the Inspection Hall to return to Feixian Peak immediately.
"Brother Liu, there’s something I need to ask you," Wen Jiu communicated to Liu Xiao via Divine Sense, "Once it’s done, I owe you a favor."
Wen Jiu didn’t mention a reward.
But he offered a favor.
Because Spirit Stones have a price, but a favor’s value can be hard to measure in some respects.
Wang Nian’s face tensed, glimpsing something unusual in Wen Jiu’s serious expression.
"Speak."
"But I need you to once again endure a Silence Technique... If it bothers you, Brother Liu, I’ll think of another way."
Wen Jiu didn’t want Liu Xiao to feel used, especially since Liu Xiao had a genuinely good character.
A friend worth befriending.
Liu Xiao shook his head with a smile, communicating via Divine Sense, "It’s fine, it’s not the first time... and a favor from you is something I must hold onto, just in case you rise to great heights, the value of that favor won’t be simple."
After the jest, Liu Xiao said, "Go ahead."
"Brother Liu, I need you to secretly relay the discovery of the Three Thousand Blood Ink corpses to the Inspector."
"Three Thousand Blood Ink!"
Liu Xiao’s face paled.
He finally understood why a Silence Technique was necessary.
The task Wen Jiu entrusted him with actually involved the Three Thousand Blood Ink corpses.
Could it be that the Blood Robe Tower, which had been searching, and Deadman Peak, also searching, had the Three Thousand Blood Ink corpses in Wen Jiu’s hands?
This...
At this moment, Liu Xiao was too shocked to speak.
Previously, he only thought Wen Jiu was not simple, but he hadn’t expected him to be so extraordinary, hiding so deeply.
Feeling Liu Xiao’s shock, Wen Jiu didn’t explain but continued with Divine Sense communication, "But I need you to say you found them, and regardless of who’s asking, it must be said you found them... But also add, you suspect it was intentional."
Go on.
Wen Jiu prepared to send a Blood-Devouring Yin Insect into Liu Xiao’s body to prevent anyone insane enough from using an Illusionary Pill on such a hero who risked it all for the sect. Although the chance was slim, Wen Jiu had to be cautious.
"Understood."
Liu Xiao nodded.
He agreed.
Asked no further questions.
But at this moment, when he looked at Wen Jiu again, his gaze was completely different.
He was now even more certain of his suspicion—that the strength of the Black Corpse had definitely surpassed his peak.
Wen Jiu hadn’t been in the sect long, yet the progress in Corpse Nourishing was so rapid. It wasn’t just talent but perhaps also opportunity. However, Liu Xiao wasn’t surprised, having heard of such occurrences before.
He himself had once received a considerable opportunity, although not as significant as Wen Jiu’s.
Quickly.
Wen Jiu once again performed the Silence Technique.
And sent a few Law-Devouring Yin Insects back into Liu Xiao’s body, controlling them with a Yin Technique to ensure Liu Xiao’s body would not be harmed.
And on that afternoon, Liu Xiao quietly left Feixian Peak with his injured body. No one knew or cared about Liu Xiao’s departure. After all, in others’ eyes, Liu Xiao was already a cripple.
Not worth maintaining relationships.
Not worth spending time worrying.
After Liu Xiao left, Wen Jiu sneaked out at night and unearthed the Three Thousand Blood Ink corpses, hiding them in the Corpse Nurturing Coffin, preparing to throw them at Liu Xiao’s doorstep once the Inspection Hall’s inspectors returned.
...
Outside the Blood Demon Abyss.
All stewards and elders from the various peaks had retreated.
The people from the Inspection Hall did the same.
Everyone stood on the flying ship, looking grimly at the demonic beasts below, frantically fleeing.
They had tried to stop them, but the demons of the Blood Demon Abyss were incredibly powerful; even a single one at the Qi Cultivation Third Layer was formidable. Now, with tens of thousands surging out, they couldn’t stop them alone.
"Return to each peak quickly, organize disciples, and deploy the array to repel the demons," Feng Xuan immediately ordered, not daring to delay.
Once the words fell.
The flying ships dispersed swiftly.
At this moment, Mu Canglong suddenly leisurely stepped forward, holding a Tier One Middle Grade Sound Transmission Talisman.
This talisman came in a pair.
Mu Canglong had one.
Liu Xiao had the other.
Within fifty miles, they could communicate anytime.
When he heard Liu Xiao’s voice, Mu Canglong was overjoyed because he had thought countless times that Liu Xiao was dead.
But when he heard the message from Liu Xiao, Mu Canglong was even more excited and quickly rushed to find Inspector Feng Xuan.
"Reporting to the Inspector, the steward Liu Xiao from Feixian Peak’s Night Patrol Department just transmitted a message to me. He discovered the Three Thousand Blood Ink corpses at Feixian Peak! It seems someone deliberately gave them to him."
As soon as these words fell.
On the flying ship, all the people from the Inspection Hall and the elders and stewards of Feixian Peak’s faces instantly tensed.
"Quickly, return!"
Feng Xuan immediately shouted and ordered.
The Three Thousand Blood Ink corpses were no small matter.
No matter if Liu Xiao’s words were true or false, or the intentions of the person who suddenly threw out the Three Thousand Blood Ink corpses, he had to return immediately to verify their authenticity.
If they were genuine...
Feng Xuan’s expression grew heavier.
The flying ship, which originally needed two hours of flying time, arrived in just one hour under Feng Xuan’s constant urging.
Simultaneously, upon seeing the flying ship in the sky, Wen Jiu immediately placed the Three Thousand Blood Ink corpses inside Liu Xiao’s house.
And unsealed the talisman.
In the instant the talisman was removed, an intense surge of corpse energy, evil qi, and blood qi erupted.
Far more exaggerated than any corpse Wen Jiu had encountered, even more ridiculous than the Blood Pool at the Chen Clan Territory.
After putting away the talisman, Wen Jiu immediately used the Blood Corpse Escape to leave, returning to his room as if nothing had happened to continue crafting talismans. 𝑓𝘳𝘦𝑒𝑤𝑒𝘣𝘯ℴ𝘷𝘦𝓁.𝑐𝑜𝑚
At that moment, as Feng Xuan and others descended with their flying ship, they also sensed the overwhelming aura emanating from the Three Thousand Blood Ink.
Before the flying ship steadied itself, Feng Xuan led the charge, using Sword Control to fly to the source of the aura and immediately entered.
The sight that greeted them was Liu Xiao lying on the bed, with the Three Thousand Blood Ink corpses placed beside him.
With just one glance, Feng Xuan recognized the Three Thousand Blood Ink.
It was him!
It was indeed him!
When he was still at the Qi Cultivation Fourth Layer, he had witnessed Three Thousand Blood Ink’s massacre, a scene that left an indelible mark on his life.
"Immediately notify the main peak, we’ve discovered the Three Thousand Blood Ink corpses... Regardless of the intentions behind the sudden delivery of these corpses, they must be swiftly sent back to the main peak!" Feng Xuan ordered promptly.
Then he began a detailed interrogation of Liu Xiao.
He also checked Liu Xiao’s injuries, but upon sensing the Dantian largely corroded by the Soul-Devouring Yin Insect, he no longer doubted Liu Xiao.
It was also at this time.
Both Gong Chi and Ye Luo, at the Night Patrol Department, also sensed the Three Thousand Blood Ink’s aura, but at first, they didn’t think of the corpses. It wasn’t until Mu Canglong returned and informed them.
Both Gong Chi and Ye Luo’s faces changed dramatically.
Who on earth!
Actually delivered the Three Thousand Blood Ink corpses and even let the Inspection Hall obtain them first!
"It must be him!"
Gong Chi muttered to himself.
It had to be that Ghost Cultivator who had always hidden on Feixian Peak without revealing himself!
But why would he do this?
However, at this moment, Ye Luo couldn’t afford to guess so much. His only thought was to immediately send out the message.
Once the Three Thousand Blood Ink corpses are taken to the main peak, it would be as hard as climbing to the heavens for the Celestial Left Alliance to obtain them.
With a Foundation Establishment Cultivator stationed at Deadman Peak, even someone as strong as the Alliance Leader probably wouldn’t dare to set foot there lightly.
Although Ye Luo knew that leaving Feixian Peak now would inevitably expose them, he couldn’t worry about that.
After sending Mu Canglong away, Ye Luo rushed to the Corpse Remains Death Land, preparing to leave Feixian Peak through it.
[Update ends.
Daily ten thousand words achieved!
It’s not that I don’t want to stock drafts, but the original plan was to go on the shelves on Sunday.
Unfortunately, unable to secure a spot at Sanjiang, nor a strong recommendation, we had to go on the shelves on Friday.
