Chapter 322: The Ahoge Little Celestial Master Gets Even Stronger 17

"A Zhou, does it hurt?"

Cheng Luosheng instantly showed a tense expression, cupping Fu Xizhou's hand, lowering his head to wipe away the blood, and just then lifted his eyes, looking over with worry.

Cheng Luosheng had pondered this look for a long time.

It also made Fu Xizhou recall how things had changed in the past, leaving him stunned; he let him wipe away the blood droplets and nervously checked his other fingers for injury.

"I'm fine, just a small wound." Fu Xizhou chuckled, holding Cheng Luosheng's hand in his palm. "You're still the same; seeing me hurt makes you upset."

Overthinking it; it's all just an act.

Cheng Luosheng silently complained, but on the surface he lowered his head shyly, his voice growing softer.

You're still just as careless as before, always clumsy and not knowing how to take care of yourself.

He leaned into Fu Xizhou's embrace, hiding the collected blood capsule in his sleeve, then tapped his smartwatch to send a message to Jin Chen.

The embrace didn't last long; Cheng Luosheng suppressed his nausea and actively clung to Fu Xizhou's neck, acting coquettishly.

I need to go prepare the re-evaluation with this body's grandfather; as long as I lure the little Celestial Master here, everything will be fine.

Go." Fu Xizhou said gently.

Although I really wanted to continue being intimate with Luosheng today, the important matter comes first; once I can take human form and restore my full power, we'll have plenty of time together.

Cheng Luosheng rose with a smile, just about to leave the courtyard, when a wisp of green smoke suddenly spread.

Ah—

In Fu Xizhou's presence, Jin Chen swept Cheng Luo away, leaving only a retreating figure.

"A Zhou, save me!" Cheng Luosheng shouted at the right moment.

"A Sheng!"

Fu Xizhou was startled and shouted angrily, "How dare you snatch my person right under my nose!"

He immediately gave chase.

Jin Chen grabbed Cheng Luosheng's collar and flew all the way to the formation set up in the suburbs, occasionally slowing down to make sure Fu Xizhou could keep up.

【Host, you look like you're walking a dog.】 Spicy Comment.

It looked at the angry Fu Xizhou in the protagonist's monitor, 【still a mastiff with a big temper.】

【Quite articulate】 Jin Chen replied with a smile.

The formation was set up not far from the cemetery in the suburbs; this place was very open, with woods nearby, and the tools for the formation hidden among the weeds would not be noticed.

An Wuyang and Sun Daqiang hid in the woods; upon seeing a green and a red figure flying over, they immediately reacted and hurriedly shrank back.

The two sat cross-legged facing each other; Sun Daqiang placed the Earth Grandmother for soul-attraction on a stone, his eyes fixed on the formation.

Everything was ready; all that remained was for Fu Xizhou to come to them himself.

To prevent Luosheng's soul from suddenly bursting out, Jin Chen, after obtaining Cheng Luosheng's consent, knocked him out and threw him into the center of the formation.

He concealed his appearance, retracted the aura of a ghostly deity, spread his primal spiritual power around the formation, stood with his hands behind his back, and coldly watched the red figure rush in.

Fu Xizhou jumped to the conclusion, thinking Jin Chen was a celestial master summoned by some ghost‑hunting clan; otherwise, why wouldn't he dare show his face?

"Which sect's foul celestial master, I have no grudge with you."

He happened to stop outside the formation, his gloomy countenance extremely fierce, like a vengeful ghost seeking lives.

"Ghost King Fu Xizhou, committing countless evils, bearing multiple killing sins, everyone can punish him."

Jin Chen's voice sounded like an icy blade, his aura spreading vigorously, as if he wanted to destroy heaven and earth, making people feel fearful and uneasy.

This person actually knows me.

Fu Xizhou's gaze shifted; he ran through those old fellows from his past life in his mind, none of whom matched this person.

He took a few steps forward and happened to step into the formation.

At the same time, golden light spreading from behind Jin Chen formed circles, the Five Emperor Coins rose into the air, and the linked talismans arranged themselves into a yin‑yang bagua diagram, trapping Fu Xizhou inside the formation so he could not escape.

Jin Chen's lips curled up, but his gaze remained sharp.

Almost in an instant, Fu Xizhou realized it was a trick and rushed forward to seize the person.

Jin Chen condensed his spiritual power into a sword and engaged him in combat.

"Yin‑Yang Six Harmonies, Inverted Mystic Gates, Heavenly Gang and Northern Dipper, Wind Dragon Shatters Heaven…"

Sun Daqiang took the opportunity to immediately begin using the eye of the Earth Grandmother statue's formation to chant a soul‑attracting spell.

Probably the most leisurely person was only An Wuyang.

He sat cross‑legged, his eyes fixed intently on the battling Jin Chen, full of sparkling light.

Brother Chen is so awesome!

But soon he had no leisure to watch the show.

Once the soul‑attracting method is activated it cannot be stopped; after An Wuyang's left ring finger was pierced, he felt as if his dantian were being churned, pain unbearable.

Cold sweat began to seep from his forehead; An Wuyang recited the Purifying Heart Curse, his lips turning white, his brows tightly knotted, his fingertips trembling nonstop.

At the same time, Fu Xizhou, engaged in the duel, sensed his strength being continually drained, even feeling his soul might be torn apart, and seeing Jin Chen's sword light with a green hue, he finally understood.

This person must be the celestial master summoned for the innate spiritual body.

He could barely maintain his human form, his face turning gray‑white, his fingernails growing wildly, his sharp teeth protruding from his lips, the hideous appearance of the Ghost King gradually emerging.

"Seek death!" Fu Xizhou roared shrilly, his techniques going mad as he lost reason.

But the heavier his ghostly aura, the stronger the effect of the spirit‑shocking formation.

Jin Chen, sword in one hand, blocked the ghostly aura attack, looked toward the suffering An Wuyang in the woods, his killing intent growing heavier and his moves more vicious.

"…Soul entrance into body, summon soul return to body, return, soul return!"

In the woods, Sun Daqiang's chant finally reached its end, and his whole body rapidly withered away.

A white silhouette was pulled out of Fu Xizhou's body, accompanied by his unwilling roar, and flew into An Wuyang's body.

An Wuyang shuddered all over, his eyes snapping open; all pain vanished instantly like a tide, and his mind went blank.

Villain corruption detected, total 40!

【Detected Villain Blackening Value, total 40!】

Yay! Success! 0731 cheered.

【Great! Success!】0731 cheered.

Jin Chen's subordinate stopped holding back, shaping hand signs to gather spiritual power and lunging at Fuxizhou, infused with a trace of the Seal's divine power.

Jin Chen's subordinates held back no longer, transforming hand gestures to condense Spiritual Power and lunge at Fu Xizhou, carrying a trace of Seal's divine power.

Fuxizhou had completely lost his human form; his cheeks were covered in white fur, his left cheek turned to bone, his red robes stained like blood, and he was struck by Jin Chen's final blow, crashing straight to the ground as his ghostly aura dissipated.

Fu Xizhou had completely lost his human form, his cheeks covered in a layer of white fur, the left cheek turned to white bone, his red robes as if stained with blood, struck by Jin Chen's final blow, he fell straight to the ground, even his ghostly aura was scattered considerably.

Even so, he gazed at Cheng Luosheng lying nearby, struggled to rise, and stumbled toward him, his eyes filled with an unyielding obsession.

But even so, he looked toward Cheng Luosheng lying on the ground not far away, still struggling to get up, staggering toward him, his eyes filled with an unshakable obsession.

"Ah Sheng... Ah Sheng."

"Ah Sheng... Ah Sheng."

Jin Chen watched, his indifferent expression unchanged.

Jin Chen watched, his indifferent expression unchanged.

He had no intention of killing Fuxizhou right now, so he allowed him to take Cheng Luosheng back.

He had no intention of killing Fu Xizhou now, so he let him take Cheng Luosheng back.

To spare himself another trip.

Saving himself another trip.

Just...

But...

Jin Chen turned his gaze to the other person who had been following from the beginning, Cheng Cinian.

Jin Chen turned his gaze, looking at another person in the corner who had been following since the start, Cheng Cinian.

His expression finally showed a hint of interest.

His expression finally showed a hint of interest.

How interesting—it appears to be a love triangle, but it's actually a four‑way relationship.

How novel, it looks like a triangular love tragedy, but actually it's a quadrangle.
