Chapter 714 Soul Chaser
Five days later, King Linchuan went to Jiangning for important business, so he prepared his carriage and horses and left Gusu.
In order to protect Prince Linchuan, Ma Qingji naturally followed him.
The carriage drove out of Gusu and traveled for another day before resting at a post station.
Unexpectedly, as night fell, Ma Qingji suddenly became alert and reminded King Linchuan: "An expert is coming."
A young man knocked on the door of the post station and asked, "Excuse me, is this the King of Linchuan?"
The King of Linchuan's men immediately stepped forward and surrounded him, asking, "Who are you?"
The young man smiled and said, "Here comes the King of Linchuan to take his orders."
The young man dodged and broke through the wall of people, smashing the door of the inn with one palm, saying, "King Linchuan, I'm here to kill you."
Ma Qingji tilted his head and said, "Your Highness, go first. This man is very skilled in Taoism, and there will be a fierce battle."
King Linchuan remained calm in the face of danger, and as he retreated from the back door, he warned, "Master Ma, be careful."
Taoist Zhang and several retainers of the Owl Inn escorted Prince Linchuan and quickly escaped through the back door. When they turned around, they heard the ground shaking like a mountain, the inn collapsed, and the sounds of ghosts crying and wolves howling filled the void.
Billowing black smoke rose into the sky, and evil spirits were hiding in it.
The guests at the Owl Pavilion shuddered with fear and helped Prince Linchuan onto his horse and escaped quickly.
And from the depths of the black smoke, there were horrible roars and vibrations, and Taoism and spiritual light were constantly splashing out.
Taoist Zhang and King Linchuan looked at each other and smiled knowingly, but then the smile faded and they pretended to escape and avoided the battle.
If practitioners fight with each other and innocent people are affected, it will be bad.
Prince Linchuan values his life very much and will not step into danger until the dust settles.
But in this huge battlefield with black air covering the sky, it was unexpectedly calm.
Chen Jingrui knelt in front of Ma Qingji and said, "Greetings to the Sky Fox."
There was a lot of movement on Chen Jingrui's part, his spirit was showing its power, disasters were coming from all directions, plus he was originally a flying corpse, so the corpse qi was even more overwhelming.
Ma Qingji was much calmer. He just stuck the Peach Branch Ghost Sword into the ground and released the evil spirit inside to hide his tracks. His hand fell on the hilt of the sword, and he looked at Chen Jingrui and said, "Get up. It's been a long time since we last met. Have you almost finished collecting the Yuan Cult's tail?"
Chen Jingrui stood up and said, "Reporting to the Fox Fairy, most of the practitioners in Shouyuan Sect who escaped from the longevity register have been arrested. There are only a few who hid too deep that I have not found yet."
Ma Qingji smiled and said, "You are from Shouyuan Sect, so it is most appropriate for you to handle this matter. I would like to trouble you to make a trip this time and help me complete this situation."
Chen Jingrui shook his head and said, "If the fox fairy hadn't intervened, my body would have been taken away by the old monster Huang Chi, and I wouldn't have had the chance to return to the sun. Even if it wasn't for Zhan Dapan's order, I would have come to help if the fox fairy had anything to ask for."
Ma Qingji asked, "How does it feel to be a soul chaser in the human world?"
Chen Jingrui said: "It is different from working in Yue Mansion. Each has its own difficulties, but in the human world, there is still some yang energy."
Ma Qingji sighed: "You died young in this world, and now you have come back to live again."
He asked this not only because he cared about Chen Jingrui, but also because he had personally created another Soul Chaser, but her style was definitely different from Chen Jingrui's.
Putting these things aside for now, Ma Qingji said, "I'll leave this to you."
Chen Jingrui said, "Don't worry, Fox Fairy."
Ma Qingji drew his peach-branch sword, turned around and disappeared into the dark night.
Chen Jingrui looked at the evil spirits all over the sky and created a huge momentum. His magic power bloomed like a ghost fire lotus, gathering all the evil spirits. Then he created the appearance of being severely injured and collapsed again.
King Linchuan watched the battle subside in the distance and asked, "Did we win?"
Taoist Zhang was also nervous and said, "He should have won. No matter how powerful our master is, he is only a sixth-rank master. Chen Jingrui is his nemesis and will not lose."
But the accident happened.
But after a moment, Chen Jingrui walked up to King Linchuan with a gloomy face.
Several guests from the Chixiao Pavilion immediately stood in front of King Linchuan. Taoist Zhang waved his hand and said, "Don't be rude."
Then he walked up to Chen Jingrui and asked, "Senior, have you subdued the zombie?"
Chen Jingrui looked at him coldly and said, "Zombie?"
Taoist Zhang was startled by his cold tone and nodded nervously.
Chen Jingrui said: "That's not a zombie. It looks like one, but it's already a real person who has achieved success in body cultivation and has walked a narrow path. Yet you told me that he is a zombie."
Taoist Zhang said: "He practiced the method of corpse transformation, which turned him from a human into a zombie..."
Chen Jingrui didn't listen to his explanation and said, "You caused my flying corpse to be seriously injured and also made a great enemy."
Taoist Zhang suddenly felt something was wrong and flapped his wings to fly, but Chen Jingrui just reached out and grabbed him, then sucked him back upside down.
Chen Jingrui put his hand on the head of the Rakshasa and said, "It is better to kill you."
There was a loud bang.
The Rakshasa ghost's body suddenly exploded, and bright red blood splashed in all directions, even King Linchuan was covered in it.
Chen Jingrui just clapped his hands, glanced at King Linchuan, and said, "If the task is not completed, I don't want the money. If you want to catch him, you can take the revenge yourself. I won't accompany you."
The mud and sand under his feet surged, and in just a moment, he escaped by burrowing into the ground, leaving King Linchuan standing there in a daze.
"Let's go! Let's go!"
He urged, but not to go to Jiangning, but to return to Gusu.
He didn't know what Chen Jingrui and Ma Qingji had said, but the safest place in the world now was the King of Wu's residence. If he didn't rush back while Ma Qingji was injured, and he was healed and retaliated, he would suffer.
The group rode back to Gusu at full speed, and it was already late at night when they arrived in Gusu.
But when he returned to Gusu, he found that the palace was brightly lit inside and outside. The dark alley outside the palace where the Owl Pavilion was located was surrounded by heavy troops and horses, and no one could get through.
The King of Wu summoned him, and when they met, he slapped him hard, knocking him to the ground, and asked, "I asked you to win over Master Ma, and this is how you win him over?"
King Linchuan didn't know what had happened yet, but he heard King Wu ask, "Why did he rush into the Owl Pavilion alone with a sword and hang the bodies of several disciples from Xima Mountain in front of the Owl Pavilion?"
Prince Linchuan's head was buzzing and he was speechless.
King Wu looked at him coldly and asked, "What on earth did you do?"
Prince Linchuan did not dare to hide the fact and told the truth about his intention to subdue Ma Qingji and use him for his own benefit, but ended up shooting himself in the foot.
The King of Wu laughed out of anger and said, "When did I give birth to a fool like you?"
"You are narrow-minded and intolerant. You are really not fit for great tasks!"
"Go back home and reflect on your actions!"
