Chapter 1763: Survival Methods of the Undying Corpse General
Bullshit, of course it's possible. Have you forgotten why we came? The Corpse-born Lotus is no longer something we can covet; let them fight over it. Whether the Heaven Capital Dragon King gets it or Diewumeng obtains it, it will eventually fall into Chen Chuyang's hands, so we don't need to worry about the Corpse-born Lotus.
The White Forehead Corpse King Bai Zhongsheng is very cunning; we can't take his corpse. There's a better corpse of the Corpse Refining Sect's Old Ancestor, so why bother with his? If we could, we could naturally refine them all. We're currently eyeing the corpse of the Corpse Refining Old Ancestor.
While they're fighting chaotically, we can get close; if possible, you...
Heishanyang sent a mental transmission to Lian Hongchen; the Corpse Refining Old Ancestor is right before us—how could we let it pass?
If we don't go all out, how can we obtain great benefits?
Lian Hongchen stared at the Black Wood Coffin; the Corpse-born Lotus wrapped the Black Wood Coffin. Wanting to approach is not easy; wanting to take the Black Wood Coffin is even harder, and wanting to obtain the Corpse Refining Old Ancestor inside the coffin is even more difficult.
It's not something Lian Hongchen can handle alone; the commotion is too big, others will surely notice her, and Lian Hongchen has no confidence.
Forget it; they're not fools, they won't just watch us refine the Corpse Refining Old Ancestor. The Corpse-born Lotus is a treasure many covet; we can't become the target of everyone's anger.
Heishanyang, you forgot there are several Corpse Generals eyeing the Corpse-born Lotus. If we act now, we can avoid the White Forehead Corpse King's gaze—what about the other Corpse Generals?
Or we should wait a bit longer; now is not a good time to act.
Lian Hongchen is well aware that even if she wanted all this, it's not the time to act; she would die miserably.
Better to wait and see; ideally, after the White Forehead Corpse King Bai Zhongsheng is killed, they will act, and the Corpse-born Lotus will go to the Heaven Capital Dragon King and his group, while the Black Wood Coffin and what's inside will be hers.
This time, Lian Hongchen infiltrated the Corpse Refining Sect also to obtain these people's corpses; devouring a Corpse General is not a loss, and if she could devour a Corpse King, that would be a huge gain; if she luckily devours the Corpse Refining Sect's Old Ancestor, that would be extraordinary.
Lian Hongchen's heart raced, but she clearly knew her strength was too weak—she couldn't match others, even with Heishanyang beside her she remained very... afraid; lacking strength, she couldn't directly oppose other Corpse Generals, but if she devoured another Corpse General, she'd have confidence to deal with them.
Too bad, those Corpse Generals are all clever and won't easily fall into her hands; the Grand Elder Fengshan True Person is dead, his corpse drained, and even if she got it, what could she do?
Lian Hongchen, I said wait, not to let you act now; you want to act, but I won't join your madness.
Heishanyang emphasized this point; it hasn't had enough fun yet and doesn't want to go to its death.
Whether it's the White Forehead Corpse King, the Heaven Capital Dragon King, or the Corpse-born Lotus, they could kill us; right now it's not a good time to act, and it won't foolishly become everyone's target.
I said we wait until they fight to mutual ruin; that's when we'll act.
The Second Corpse General thinks the same; they're hiding now, trying as much as possible to avoid the White Forehead Corpse King's attention.
Heishanyang and company are no different; they all want to be the mantis catching the cicada, not wanting to become others' blade or die under their sword.
"Hahaha, you scared me, Heishanyang—I thought you really had high hopes for me, letting me clash head‑on with them." Lian Hongchen exhaled, her eyes fixed on the battlefield; the White Forehead Corpse King directly deployed a formation, the Corpse King's true form appeared, and she would have to face the Heaven Capital Dragon King and Diewumeng head‑on.
Diewumeng didn't act; her task was to watch the Corpse-born Lotus to prevent others from taking it.
Several Corpse Generals were not far away; though they seemed to counter each other, their gazes were all fixed on the Corpse-born Lotus—whether the Undying Corpse General or the Second Corpse General, they all wanted the Corpse-born Lotus, while only the Gold Armor Corpse stared fixedly at the Undying Corpse General.
"Undying Senior Brother, was the Red Earth Junior Brother's death your doing?" The Gold Armor Corpse glared at the Undying Corpse General; this is a good chance for revenge—the Red Earth Junior Brother must not die in vain.
The Sect Master Senior Brother is no match; we need to wait for an opportunity, then strike immediately, while the Undying Corpse General is right before us—we can kill him first to avenge the fallen Red Earth Junior Brother.
"Gold Armor Junior Brother, why go through this again?"
The Undying Corpse General said calmly: "The Red Earth Junior Brother is dead, devoured by the Corpse-born Lotus; it was the Sect Master Senior Brother who did it, and it has nothing to do with me—don't slander me."
"If you want revenge, go find the Sect Master Senior Brother—he's right up front; go kill him."
At this moment he couldn't possibly admit it; nobody knows this, he denies it, and the Gold Armor Corpse can't confirm it was himself.
"Hmph, you think I don't know it was you who did it? Undying Senior Brother, you underestimate me." The Gold Armor Corpse stepped forward, clenched its fist, and approached the Undying Corpse General step by step; it wanted to kill him, kill that bastard, daring to act against them—unforgivable.
"Second Senior Brother, aren't you speaking?" The Undying Corpse General showed no concern, turning to the Second Corpse General: "In this situation, the four of us joining forces is the best plan; whether it's the Sect Master Senior Brother or the Heaven Capital Dragon King and his lot, they won't spare us—no matter who ends up laughing last, our fate won't be any better. Now we're fighting among ourselves—isn't that exactly what they want?"
"If I die, you won't survive either; better yet, let's join forces—I can help you obtain the Corpse-born Lotus."
This is the Undying Corpse General's confidence, and also his self‑assurance in standing against the three.
The Second Corpse General raised a hand: "Gold Armor Junior Brother, stop, don't act on impulse."
"Second Senior Brother." The Gold Armor Corpse complained.
"Gold Armor Junior Brother, the Corpse-born Lotus is paramount; other matters can wait. The Red Earth Junior Brother's death must not affect our plan—if you want revenge, fine; after we succeed, do as you wish, the senior brothers won't interfere." The Second Corpse General said coldly, not allowing the Gold Armor Corpse to act.
The Undying Corpse General is right; at this time there's no need for us to fight among ourselves.
The enemy is too strong; we must unite. Though the Undying Corpse General is hateful, he's correct—Feng Luoyue stared at the Gold Armor Corpse, which held out for a while before finally lowering its hand.
"Hmph."
A cold snort announced his displeasure and also warned the Undying Corpse General that the Red Earth Corpse General's death is not over.
The Undying Corpse General sent a mental transmission: "Second Senior Brother, and Gold Armor Junior Brother, the Old Ancestor is still alive; our only chance of survival is to awaken the Old Ancestor."
Upon hearing this, the three changed expression; the Second Corpse General Feng Luoyue turned its head and stared at the Undying Corpse General.
"You want to awaken the Old Ancestor?"
"Do you know what you're saying?"
"The Old Ancestor has already been drained; even if it awakens, what then?"
