Chapter 867: A Counter-Attack

Watching their own Ghost Kings fighting in full swing, yet not seeing a single Dao Yi Sect disciple,

the arriving evil spirits were stunned.

The leading Ghost General, seeing this, wanted to speak up and persuade them.

"Ghost Kings, what is this..."

But the words had barely left his mouth when he was interrupted by a furious Ghost King.

"Get lost!"

"Yes, sir!"

It's over, this is truly over. What kind of evil have these Ghost Kings been possessed by?

"Could it be a Dao Yi Sect dark art?"

"Get out of here! What dark art could control a Ghost King?"

Human cultivators, including evil spirits, indeed have means to control people, but it is absolutely impossible to control a powerhouse at the Ghost King level.

Moreover, looking at the Ghost Kings, they didn't look controlled at all. Just listen to what they were saying.

"I'll kill you first, then I'll kill that unfilial son."

"People say even a tiger doesn't eat its own cubs."

"Get lost! Is that even my son, damn it?"

Wives, unfilial sons—listening to the angry curses of the Ghost Kings, the many evil spirits below were completely dumbfounded.

They were truly fighting with real fire, and as time passed, the Ghost Kings were suffering varying degrees of injuries.

At this rate, it was estimated that a Ghost King would truly fall.

But anxious as they were, they had no way to intervene. They wanted to stop it, but they didn't have the ability.

On the other side, at the Dao Yi Sect's Lingcheng, the disciples returned fully loaded, and the injured disciples were arranged to heal.

But before leaving, these disciples still said one by one, feeling reluctant:

"Remember my Ghost Crystals."

"Don't worry, don't worry, absolutely fair and just."

"I risked my life to kill a Yellow-Page Ghost."

"I know, what's yours will definitely not be missing."

"Good, good, good."

They didn't show much concern for their own injuries; the only thing on their minds was the Ghost Crystals.

After settling the injured disciples, Zhao Zhengping, Xu Jie, and others gathered together.

"Master and the others' plan succeeded; those Ghost Kings really started fighting."

"This is a good opportunity."

"Shall we hit them with a follow-up attack?"

"Hehe, that's a good idea. You thought of the same thing as me."

Xu Jie and Zhong Ling looked at each other, both wearing faint, extremely sinister smiles.

Since there was such a good opportunity, it certainly couldn't be missed. Moreover, Ghost Valley's reinforcements had arrived.

Many more evil spirits had arrived at the outskirts. If they suddenly attacked again now, the harvest would certainly not be small.

Seeing the two talking about nothing but evil spirits, Zhao Rou couldn't help but say:

"Have you forgotten the real purpose of our coming to Ghost Valley?"

Why did everyone come to Ghost Valley? To hunt evil spirits? No, it was to find the Heavenly Fragrance Ghost Fruit.

But it seemed that ever since Junior Brother Changqing changed the dining rules, everyone had simply thrown the Heavenly Fragrance Ghost Fruit to the back of their minds.

This is absurd. You guys aren't thinking about the Heavenly Fragrance Ghost Fruit, but all day long you're thinking about killing evil spirits—what's the meaning of that?

But hearing Zhao Rou's words, Xu Jie said righteously:

"What of it? Once we kill all the evil spirits in Ghost Valley, are we afraid we won't find the Heavenly Fragrance Ghost Fruit?"

"This..."

The words sounded a bit off, but Zhao Rou couldn't refute them for a moment. It made some sense.

"That's right, once we wipe out the evil spirits in Ghost Valley, we'll have plenty of time to look."

Zhong Ling also nodded in agreement. The two hit it off immediately. Seeing them like this, Zhao Zhengping felt more and more that these two had a couple's aura.

"I'll go find Master and the others to discuss it."

Such a perfect opportunity certainly couldn't be wasted.

Soon, he found Hong Zun and the others and explained his idea to them.

Hearing this, Hong Zun and the others were not surprised.

"Wait a little longer, wait until they've fought enough."

What Xu Jie could think of, Hong Zun and the others naturally thought of too.

The reason they retreated before was to create an opportunity for the Ghost Kings.

Otherwise, if the Dao Yi Sect were present, the Ghost Kings, even if angry, might have forcibly held back due to the threat.

But by retreating directly, with no Dao Yi Sect disciples in sight, the anger in their hearts was naturally harder to suppress without the threat.

Once they fought more and both sides were heavily injured, that would be the moment for the Dao Yi Sect to strike.

"Tell the disciples to rest first."

"Good."

Wait for a while.

As they were talking, a sound of wailing ghosts and howling wolves suddenly came from the outskirts of Ghost Valley. Hearing this, the expressions of Hong Zun and the others changed.

"They really killed one?"

With their Saint-sense covering the area, a Ghost King had actually fallen? They hadn't expected such a result.

Being able to have a big fight would have already been considered a success.

But they didn't expect these Ghost Kings to be so ruthless as to actually kill one. This was an unexpected joy.

Qi Xiong said with a complex expression:

"I think we might not even need to intervene."

Damn it, with this way of fighting, the Dao Yi Sect might not even need to act; these Ghost Kings will kill themselves off.

The most shocked were the many evil spirits on the battlefield.

Before, they were just shocked, but now they were terrified.

Seeing with their own eyes a Ghost King being slain by another Ghost King, the many evil spirits were dumbfounded.

What is this for? Not fighting the Dao Yi Sect, but killing their own people? What is the meaning of this?

"What is the situation now?"

"I don't know."

"Should we try to stop them? This is going to be trouble if it continues."

"You go then."

"I..."

With one Ghost King fallen, the other Ghost Kings, seeing this, not only showed no signs of restraint but fought even more fiercely.

It was like adding oil to a fire.

You can kill, so can I! How dare you sleep with my wife, damn it!

The battle situation became increasingly chaotic, and Ji Wushuang, who had been watching, was also stunned when he heard a Ghost King had fallen.

"Dead? Killed by their own people?"

"Yes, my junior brother and I saw it with our own eyes."

"Are they a bunch of idiots? Not dealing with the Dao Yi Sect, but killing their own?"

"Maybe they've gone crazy from fighting."

"This is crazy from fighting? I think they were sick to begin with."

It's over. Based on the current situation, Ji Wushuang felt that this bunch of idiots in Ghost Valley were no match for the Dao Yi Sect at all.

Look at how they were handled by the Dao Yi Sect right from the start of the engagement.

They didn't even need the others to act, and a Ghost King was already dead.

Although there were quite a few Ghost Kings in Ghost Valley, they couldn't do things like this. ===== CHAPTER 868 =====
