Chapter 102: Life-Star, Worshiping the Big Dipper! The Strange Zhang Fan

The Life-Star holds a person's life and fate.

If one were to say who in this world has no Life-Star, then there is only one kind of person.

"A dead person!"

"How could this be?"

Wang Xuangang's brows lifted, looking at Zhang Fan unbelievably. He was standing in front of him alive, but from the law, from the reason...

"You are already a dead person?"

At this time, even Jiang Hu's face became strange.

"I am still alive..."

Zhang Fan's gaze narrowed, and he couldn't help but ask: "Is there any Daoist art in this world that can make a person's Life-Star disappear?"

"The Star-Worship lineage, observing celestial phenomena, watching life and death, is already a master within... I have never heard of such a method."

Wang Xuangang said in a low voice: "Covering the secrets of heaven, even deceiving heaven... there might be such a Daoist art in this world, but I don't know it."

"You should also be clear, what kind of means this is, moving stars and changing lodges, reversing life and death..."

"What kind of cultivation does this require."

"Zhang Fan... who exactly are you?"

Beside him, Jiang Hu finally couldn't help but ask the question in his heart.

Since Zhang Fan easily mastered the Northern Emperor Law, his body had shown all kinds of unusual things, which made Jiang Hu, who came from the Maoshan Shangqing Sect, feel unbelievable.

"Don't let a single word of this leak out."

Zhang Fan swept over the faces of the two. Although he had full trust in Wang Xuangang and Jiang Hu, this matter concerned his secrets, so he naturally had to be extremely cautious.

"This matter naturally ends here." Wang Xuangang said in a low voice.

"You also have to be careful yourself. There is no eternal loyalty in this world."

As soon as these words came out, Jiang Hu revealed a strange look. He naturally understood the subtext of Wang Xuangang's words.

Throughout history, loyalty has been most praised because it is the most difficult to obtain. Even blood brothers will fight each other, let alone outsiders!?

"Wang Xuanmiao is handed over to you... you Wang family handle it yourselves." Zhang Fan nodded, not wanting to stay on this topic, changing the subject.

"Pay attention... experts from the Wu Wei Sect may be eyeing your Wang family's 【Big Dipper Refining God】... be more careful."

At this time, Zhang Fan was 90% sure that they were coming for the Baidou Sect's 【Big Dipper Refining God】. Perhaps he was trying to find a certain important person and spy on his secrets.

The importance of this person was enough to make 【Rooster】, one of the Thirteen Zodiacs, unable to sleep or eat.

"I understand."

Wang Xuangang nodded, his cold gaze cast toward the fainted Wang Xuanmiao.

Evening, Wang family.

In the basement, inside a cold room, the surrounding walls were all cast of iron, the sound of heavy chains colliding constantly came, accompanied by painful moans.

At this time, Wang Xuanmiao had become a prisoner, her hair disheveled, covered in blood, long gone was her past style. The most cruel thing was that her pipa bones had been hooked through by a knife.

The so-called "pipa bones," which are the shoulder blades. In many movies and TV shows, some immortals with magic power, after being caught, in order to prevent them from casting spells, would lock their pipa bones. In this way, even if they had world-covering magic power, they would be powerless.

In Journey to the West, after Sun Wukong was captured by Erlang Shen, he was pierced through the shoulder blades and thrown into Taishang Laojun's alchemy furnace.

Actually, piercing the pipa bones is not that magical. The reason it can trap cultivation people is that this method is to drill holes in the shoulder blades, straight through the collarbone. In this way, the upper limbs' ability to act is greatly restricted, almost abolished.

However, Daoist spellcasting often requires cooperation with seals, steps, and mantras, etc. Therefore, once the pipa bones are pierced, one's abilities cannot be displayed.

Of course, if one reached the point of casting spells with a single thought, they probably wouldn't fall into such a situation.

"Still unwilling to say anything?"

At this time, outside the iron door, Wang Zhenyu looked through the glass at Wang Xuanmiao inside the door, a cold chill flashing in his eyes.

"She sighed, and after a long silence, she said that she had stolen something from the Big Dipper Star Lord, which was why she was imprisoned here. Unless the copper candle burned out, she would never see the light of day again."

"I'm afraid I can't ask anything."

Just at this moment, Wang Wang Zhen Shi beside him spoke.

"What is the background of those two young men during the day?" Wang Zhenyu paused slightly and asked casually.

"One is named Jiang Hu, originally a disciple of the Maoshan Shangqing Sect, now making a living in Night Without Light. The matter of the Shen family a few days ago had something to do with him." Wang Wang Zhen Shi had long since figured out the background and hurriedly reported.

"Jiang Hu... I know, it's that little guy." Wang Zhenyu nodded, but didn't take it to heart.

"The other is named Zhang Fan, now also in Night Without Light."

"Zhang Fan!? What is his background?" Wang Zhenyu pursued.

"I heard this kid is very close to the Xiong family."

"Xiong family!? Was it him who fell Wang Xuanqing last time?" Wang Zhenyu's brows wrinkled slightly.

"Correct, it is this person."

"How does Xuangang know him? They shouldn't have any intersection."

"This... I don't know... I sent someone to probe the kid's background, but couldn't find it."

"How is that possible?"

Wang Zhenyu's brows trembled, a strange look flashing in his eyes.

On the ground of Yujing, as long as it is a living person... no, whether it is a living person or a dead person, there is nothing the Wang family cannot find out.

"I heard this kid is a disciple of Mount Zhenwu." Wang Wang Zhen Shi lowered his voice.

During the day, he also thought Zhang Fan was just a small character, relying on the Xiong family's power, but now it seems it is not so.

"Mount Zhenwu... that place hides a pillar supporting the sky." Wang Zhenyu flashed a look of fear.

"Are you talking about the transformation..."

"Get out!" Wang Zhenyu glanced sideways, revealing a look of annoyance: "Do you think you are very humorous?"

"I just think there is no need to be so wind-and-crane-startled..."

Wang Wang Zhen Shi's face revealed an awkward smile, subconsciously looking at Wang Xuanmiao inside the iron door.

"Clan leader, in fact, how severely the Wu Wei Sect has infiltrated over the years, everyone knows in their hearts, which family is clean?"

Wang Wang Zhen Shi looked at Wang Zhenyu's face and couldn't help but say: "It's not like before..."

Historically, although there have been nine times of breaking mountains and cutting temples, if it is said to be a pure battle between good and evil, that is nonsense. Tracing the cause, who can say clearly!?

But now, even the Long Hu Zhang family, the number one enemy of the Wu Wei Sect back then, is gone. If it is said that the Wu Wei Sect is still a demon, I'm afraid the voice will not be as uniform as before.

"Confused!"

Wang Zhenyu's face sank, and he shouted sharply: "No matter what the environment is now, the slogans above are still consistent..."

"If you don't even do the superficial work, then you are not far from death."

"Actually... didn't our Wang family have this kind of thing before? Back then, Old Seven..."

At this point, Wang Wang Zhen Shi's voice stopped abruptly.

"Zhenhuang was outstanding among us back then, the only person who practiced 【Big Dipper Refining God】... he colluded with the Wu Wei demon people. The reason he was able to survive was that he paid a huge price." Wang Zhenyu said in a low voice.

"Huge price?" Wang Wang Zhen Shi revealed a look of curiosity.

Rumors about Wang Zhenhuang had never ceased in the Wang family.

Some said that when he was young, like Xiong Sanqi of the Xiong family, he followed that man to travel far away, pushing across the seven provinces of the southeast, invincible and undefeated, his fierce name resounding, even alarming the White Crane Temple.

"That man... he betrayed that man, so the people above were willing to leave him a life. Even so... now he is not like a human, not like a ghost." Wang Zhenyu couldn't help but sigh.

"That man..."

Wang Wang Zhen Shi remained silent. By today, perhaps no one remembers that man's title, but in their era, his name was earth-shaking, spanning north and south.

"Great Lingzong Wang!"

At this time, in that sealed room.

Inside the huge glass container, the emerald-green liquid constantly bubbled, and the ferocious and strange broken body floated in it, rising and falling.

Dong... dong... dong...

Suddenly, a slow sound of footsteps echoed faintly in the room. The door was not opened, but the person arrived.

A figure wearing a cloak, like hiding in the shadows, appeared abruptly in front of the huge glass container. At the same time, inside the glass container, the broken body slowly opened its only remaining eye.

"Truly sad... the 【Big Dipper Desolate Scholar】 who was famous all over the world back then has become this look... not even as good as a stray dog."

A mocking laugh echoed in the cold room.

"Entering and leaving the Wang family as if there were no one there, it is indeed you..."

"Rooster!"

"The Immortal is hidden... back then I learned some methods from the 【Immortal】." The person laughed lightly.

"Thirteen Zodiacs, with the human as the head..."

"The human zodiac's title is called 【Immortal】..." Wang Zhenhuang's ferocious and broken face revealed a look of mockery: "You still dare to learn His Daoist arts!?"

"From ancient times to the present, among ten Daoists in the world, nine are surnamed Zhang, and one is surnamed Li..."

"The Li surname is the ancestor of all Daos... the 【Immortal】 is surnamed Li, so my learning His Daoist arts can be considered returning to the ancestor." The person said lightly.

"What are you doing here?" Wang Zhenhuang said in a low voice.

"Some old matters, I want to ask clearly."

"What?" Wang Zhenhuang pursued.

"Back then, you betrayed the Great Lingzong Wang, revealing the secret that he was about to enter the Fifth Eternal Night Tribulation, so we seized the opportunity to kill them father and son under Mount Long Hu..."

"But over the years, I have been thinking more and more that something is wrong." The person whispered in a condensed voice.

"I don't understand what you mean." Inside the glass container, the broken body said in a low voice.

"Great Lingzong Wang... what kind of person is he? God-Demon Holy Fetus... what kind of method is that?"

"I always feel... he is not dead yet!?"

Gurgle, gurgle...

As soon as the words fell, inside the huge glass container, a string of rapid bubbles suddenly rose.

"Not dead? After paying such a huge price back then, how could they still survive?"

"If he is not dead, how can I still survive here?" Wang Zhenhuang's teeth were exposed outside his broken face, gritting them.

"Just because you are not dead shows that he is still alive." The person sneered.

"He deliberately let you reveal the secret in order to respond to the tribulation, leading us to set up a death trap, and he took the opportunity to escape. Ten years... that is enough time to do many things..."

The person's voice became cold and chilling.

"Wang Zhenhuang... who could have thought that a rebel like you would be the most loyal to him among that group of people..."

"Willing to be like this, not like a human, not like a ghost... not even as good as a stray dog, actually willing to enter the game for him."

The person's voice became colder and angrier, vaguely revealing a trace of trembling.

"Are you afraid?"

Inside the huge glass container, a mocking sound came from that broken body.

"It's a pity... he still wasn't ruthless enough... originally he could have killed you..."

The person calmed down, and under the gloomy cloak, his cold gaze stared fixedly at the broken body in the container.

"These are all your guesses... Rooster... you have lived in his shadow your whole life..."

"Even if he had been dead for ten years, he almost became your inner demon..."

"You will never be able to walk out in your whole life."

As he spoke, the broken body inside the huge glass container let out a harsh laugh, accompanied by violent coughing, and bright red blood constantly seeped out from the cracks in the flesh.

"He is not an inner demon, he is a real demon..."

"The wound he left on Zi Shu back then has not been fully removed for ten years..."

At this point, the person's voice paused slightly, seemingly suppressing the fear in his heart.

"You are truly afraid to death."

Inside the huge glass container, Wang Zhenhuang laughed more and more unscrupulously, even if the wound cracked, this broken body seemed to be about to split at any time.

Ten years, he had been like this, not like a human, not like a ghost, for a full ten years, but he had never laughed as heartily as he did today.

"Afraid? How could I be afraid?"

Just at this moment, the person's voice became unusually calm, and his words carried a trace of mockery.

"The Human Zodiac has been dead for ten years, right... you probably don't know..."

"The new Human Zodiac has been born!"

Gurgle...

Strings of bubbles constantly rose from the liquid inside the huge glass container.

"Now... you tell me, is he still not dead? Has he escaped the tribulation?"

The person whispered in a condensed voice, his voice carrying a trace of longing.

"You can guess."

Wang Zhenhuang grinned, laughing crazily.

Bang...

As soon as the words fell, an invisible fluctuation rose. Inside the glass container, the broken body exploded, turning into blood mist and staining the emerald-green liquid.

"I guess your mother!"

The person was cold, looked indifferently at the muddy container, and turned to leave.
