Chapter 1341 - 1341: Bootlicking!

"Explode!"

At the instant Cang Huo lunged over, Lin Mu ferociously detonated a thousand strands of Tribulation Thunder Thought.

Rumble, rumble, rumble!

The blast of firelight shot straight into the sky.

Cang Huo, who had revealed its true form, was already not that formidable anymore; blasted by a thousand Tribulation Thunder Thoughts, its Ghastly Qi instantly collapsed, becoming incomparably frail.

But it still did not die.

The toughness of a ghost creature's Life Force was evident.

Just then.

A loud shout came.

"Master, I'll help you!"

With the voice, an iron fan slammed down hard on the Ghastly Qi that Cang Huo had transformed into.

"You… you actually betrayed the Ghost Realm and recognized a lowly human race as your master!"

Cang Huo simply couldn't believe what it was seeing.

It had always been the beings of the Ghost Realm who treated All Races of the Myriad Realms as slaves, slaughtering at will.

Yet right before it, this Six-Tribulations Ghost General who had just successfully Transcended Tribulation actually acknowledged a human as master.

"Heh heh, how could a mere Ghost General comprehend how great my master is? Die!"

The iron fan slammed down fiercely; the Ghastly Qi of Cang Huo's Incarnation was directly slapped apart.

After revealing its true body, a ghost creature's strength was reduced to less than a tenth.

"I pay respects to Master!"

Ku Hai prostrated on the ground, performing a grand five-point kowtow to Lin Wudi.

If earlier it had been forced by the Ghost Path oath to recognize Lin Wudi as master, now it was sincerely and wholeheartedly kneeling to its master.

In the midst of Transcending Tribulation, personally experiencing the Cultivation Technique Lin Wudi had imparted, it finally realized how extraordinary this technique was.

With this Cultivation Technique, transcending tribulation was like drinking water.

Moreover, after transcending tribulation, there was absolutely no post-tribulation weakness like other Ghost Generals!

Ku Hai knew better than anyone what that meant.

The Ghost Realm's invasion of the Ten Thousand Realms had always made poor progress.

One major bottleneck was precisely the weakness period after ghost creatures transcended tribulation.

Every tribulation would force大量 Ghost Generals or Overlords, and even Ghost Kings, to lay low for hundreds of years.

The Ghost Realm's fighting strength in its war against the Ten Thousand Realms was sharply reduced.

Now, with this Cultivation Technique Lin Wudi had imparted, with no weakness period, the Ghost Realm really could suppress the Ten Thousand Realms!

Of course, it would never reveal Lin Wudi's Cultivation Technique to anyone.

A secret like this, it would definitely keep for itself!

"Oh? I didn't expect your aptitude to be beyond my expectations. I thought you'd need another day, yet you've already succeeded in transcending tribulation."

Lin Mu had originally thought this Ku Hai was merely of Proud Son of Heaven caliber; unexpected that it actually possessed the talent of an exiled immortal.

In that case, the subsequent plan would need some adjustments.

"It's all thanks to Master's miraculous Cultivation Technique. This lowly servant's meager achievement—every bit of glory belongs to Master!"

Ku Hai's face was full of obsequious smiles, as if it wanted to lick Lin Mu's shoes.

"Return to the Ghost Realm!"

Lin Mu rose into the air, flying toward the Spatial Passage.

Ku Hai's mouth twitched.

Still couldn't avoid it—this master was too stubborn.

Clearly he could escape into the Myriad Realms Battlefield and take the chance to leave, so why insist on going back?

But now it was truly convinced by Lin Wudi, so of course it didn't dare obstruct its master's will, and could only follow bitterly.

...

Ghost Realm, Ghost Fox Territory, Ten Foxes Domain, military camp.

"When will Lord Overlord arrive?"

A Ghost General asked somewhat uneasily.

Four days had already passed, yet the unease in their hearts hadn't diminished in the slightest.

They also didn't know, after the Ghost Fox Lord appeared, whether in a fit of rage it would slaughter all of them.

"Heh heh..."

Gui Ni was laughing, a mocking edge to that laughter.

Gui Yan sighed, "At a time like this, who dares bring bad luck on themselves by asking when Lord Overlord will arrive? We can only wait!"

Inside the grand hall, all the Ghost Generals were silent.

This feeling of not knowing whether they would live or die made every Ghost General feel suffocated.

"Damn it! It's all that human's fault. If not for him, we wouldn't be this unlucky!"

Someone cursed in frustration.

"If you ask me, it's that Ku Hai stirring up trouble!"

"Right! I also think Ku Hai's the problem. That bastard didn't take the human to Ku Huang Territory, but instead led him to us. Obviously he had bad intentions!"

"If this General ever sees that Ku Hai again, this General will tear him to pieces!"

"Heh heh, if that bastard dares come back to the Ghost Realm, this General will ignore the rules and still devour him!"

The Ghost Generals all jabbered at once, denouncing Ku Hai.

Gui Ni and Gui Yan exchanged a glance, bitterness in their hearts.

See Ku Hai again?

Impossible!

As long as that Ku Hai bastard wasn't an idiot, it would absolutely never dare return to the Ghost Realm.

Colluding with the Wan Clan was a capital crime that meant soul-scattering.

Coming back to the Ghost Realm would only lead to death!

"Enough, everyone. Let's unify our story, so we don't slip up when Lord Overlord questions us..."

Gui Ni had only said half a sentence when a loud laugh came from outside the hall, from the military camp.

"Hahahahaha… You trash, Grandpa's back! Whoever wanted to devour Grandpa, step out and let Grandpa take a look!"

This voice could only belong to Ku Hai.

Gui Ni and Gui Yan's eyes were both filled with disbelief.

He'd come back?

Ku Hai, who had colluded with the human race and escaped to the Myriad Realms Battlefield, had actually come back?

That bastard must be insane!

In the next instant, the two were overjoyed.

As long as they could capture or kill Ku Hai, their own crimes could be cut by more than half.

Boom, boom, boom!

The White Bone Hall exploded outright as several hundred Ghost Generals rose into the air.

Above the military camp, the snow-white-clothed human and Ku Hai the traitor were standing in the sky.

Seeing the Ghost Generals appear, Ku Hai clicked his tongue in praise, "You lot are vicious enough, actually slaughtering all the Ghost Soldiers in the camp. Is this killing to silence witnesses?"

The Ghost Generals' faces went dark.

Gui Ni and Gui Yan looked even more grim.

Earlier, they'd still been thinking of capturing Ku Hai to interrogate him for the truth.

Now it seemed that idea wouldn't work.

If Ku Hai were taken alive, their secret of massacring the camp would be exposed.

Ku Hai had to die!

Gui Ni and Gui Yan's hearts simultaneously hardened around that thought.

"Ku Hai, you betrayed the Ghost Realm and colluded with the human race, yet you still dare return. You really are tired of living."

Gui Ni secretly made a hand signal.

This time, they absolutely could not let the two escape again.

Even if half the Ghost Generals fell, they had to kill this bastard.

Otherwise, if Ku Hai was allowed to run amok in the Ghost Realm, the secret of their camp massacre would be exposed sooner or later.

Many Ghost Generals now belatedly understood the stakes, and their hearts were a jumble of emotions.

If they had known this Ku Hai bastard didn't know the meaning of death and would actually come back from the Myriad Realms Battlefield, they wouldn't have massacred the camp.

Now look, they'd mounted a tiger they couldn't get off.

The only way out was to kill Ku Hai.

But to break the joint assault of Ku Hai and the human, they would likely lose more than half of their number.

The price was far too steep.

Ku Hai, you deserve to die!

"Kill!"

A Ghost General roared and charged at Ku Hai and Lin Mu.

Nearly a hundred Ghost Generals joined that wave of attacks.

"Great Master, do you wish to personally act and bestow death upon these Ghost Generals, or shall your lowly slave do it for you..."

Facing Gui Yan and the others, Ku Hai was utterly arrogant and dismissive, but toward Lin Wudi it was as humble as the most loyal of slaves.

Lin Mu's mouth twitched; he waved a hand.

Ku Hai understood instantly, stepped forward, and laughed loudly, "You lowly Ghost Generals aren't qualified for the supreme Master to personally grant you death. Let me send you to Hell instead!"

Gui Yan and Gui Ni were almost pissed crooked in the mouth.

This Ku Hai really seemed to have gone insane.

He actually dared to rant like this.

And what was with its attitude toward that human?

It looked like it was one step away from kneeling to lick that human's feet.
