Clan Rise: Starting as a Grandfather Chapter 1761 - 1070: Fools of the Soul Control Hall (Part 2)

"Do you think I wouldn’t dare?" Ji Wusi coldly looked at Yu Yuan.
"You dare, what wouldn’t you dare, but I bet if you stood in front of her, you’d definitely be mesmerized!" Yu Yuan continued to mock.
"At least I dare to stand in front of her, you don’t even have the qualification to do that!" Ji Wusi did not show weakness, coldly mocking in return.
"Ha, do you think you’re stronger than me? How about we fight, see who is qualified?" Yu Yuan’s face also turned cold.
"Fight then, who’s afraid of whom!" Ji Wusi’s body released a strong chill.
In an instant, the two faced off, seeming like they might brawl at any moment.
An Wusheng’s eyes flashed with helplessness, and he shouted, "Shut up, both of you!"
These two idiots, whenever they’re together they fight!
Damn!
Why does this Hall Master have two such foolish subordinates?
An Wusheng felt quite frustrated.
The reason he previously only brought Yu Yuan along was because these two fools, once together, wouldn’t settle down for a moment. If not closely watched, they could fight anytime.
"Continually act recklessly, and I’ll throw you into the Corpse Sea!" An Wusheng coldly swept his gaze over Yu Yuan and Ji Wusi.
The Hall Master’s authority is not to be challenged; Yu Yuan and Ji Wusi quieted down at his words, shutting their mouths tightly and saying nothing.
However, Ghost Granny laughed with her extremely unpleasant voice.
"Calm down, Hall Master; the two Directors are just playing around!"
An Wusheng glanced at Ghost Granny, too lazy to deal with her.
Among his subordinates, the most troublesome is this old thing.
The reason Yu Yuan and Ji Wusi turned out this way was due to the instigation of this old thing.
Back in the day, Yu Yuan and Ji Wusi were as close as brothers, senior and junior disciples, but since these two individually formed their Cores, their relationship gradually turned antagonistic.
Calling them enemies might be inaccurate; in any case, they were constantly at odds, never at peace.
"Leng Xuan, go challenge, and first lure away that fool Shui Ling!" An Wusheng commanded.
The cool Leng Xuan seemed not to hear, continuing to stand with hollow eyes.
"Leng Xuan!" An Wusheng shot a dangerous look.
Instinctively, Leng Xuan’s empty gaze focused sharply on An Wusheng.
"Hall Master!"
"Go lure Shui Ling away; she’s from the Beihai Demon Court, don’t kill her!" An Wusheng repeated.
Leng Xuan frowned slightly at this, "Why involve me if not to kill her? When my blade is drawn, it must devour souls! Isn’t the Hall Master aware?"
"Then don’t use the blade!"
"What should I use if not the blade?" Leng Xuan looked down at the bone blade at his waist.
An Wusheng took a deep breath, feeling furious with these fools.
To ask such a stupid question!
"You just need to lure her away; does that require a blade?"
Leng Xuan pinched his chin, seriously contemplating.
"The Hall Master is right; I can lure her without a blade!"
"..."
An Wusheng was completely speechless, "Go, quickly!"
Leng Xuan glanced eastward, hesitantly saying, "Can we wait a little longer?"
"Wait for what?"
"Wait till daybreak!"
"Why wait for daybreak?"
"Because after daylight, my blade will be sharper!"
"Quack quack quack~~" Ghost Granny couldn’t hold back any longer, laughing like a duck.
Yu Yuan and Ji Wusi showed helpless expressions, simultaneously saying, "That idiot!"
After speaking, the two looked at each other with a face of disdain.
"You know his mind isn’t right!" Ghost Granny chuckled.
Leng Xuan naturally isn’t mindless; rather, his Divine Soul is incomplete—no, not incomplete; he sealed part of his Divine Soul himself, rendering it incomplete.
Hence, sometimes he acts very foolishly; his thinking is peculiar, difficult for others to grasp.
An Wusheng was patient no more, "Then wait until morning to go!"
At this time, dawn was breaking; full daylight was only moments away. An Wusheng really did not want to speak with this fool Leng Xuan, so he decided to wait.
As he predicted, daylight soon illuminated everything, and he looked at Leng Xuan again, "Can you go now?"
"Can we wait a little longer?"
"No!" An Wusheng’s eyes shot out dangerous light.
Leng Xuan shivered all over, "Yes, I’m going now!"
With that, he finally flew toward True Yang Immortal City below.
And with his move, the ghost soldier army hidden among the stone forest below also charged toward True Yang Immortal City.
In an instant, Evil Qi spread, turning into a chilling mass of dark clouds which began to engulf True Yang Immortal City.
True Yang Immortal City did not have walls, only a few solitary gate towers around. The vermilion city gates stood ten feet tall; the lintel adorned with "True Yang Immortal City" in red gold, the letters entwined with tiny threads of True Yang fire patterns. When the wind blew, the patterns lightly shimmered, seemingly emitting flames.
The entire True Yang Immortal City was shrouded in the faint golden "True Yang Array", array patterns flickering like living creatures under sunlight.
Normally, True Yang Immortal City wouldn’t fully activate the True Yang Array, only partially the array. But now, Unpredictable Ghost Sect and Wanhua Demon Court were at war, and to prevent an attack on True Yang Immortal City by Unpredictable Ghost Sect, Shui Ling ordered the complete activation of the True Yang Array’s features.
As soon as the Evil Qi spread, the cultivator guarding the tower noticed the abnormality, without hesitation sounding the copper bell beside him.
Right when the bell rang, Leng Xuan abruptly appeared outside the array.
The bone blade exuding Ghost Qi unsheathed, a pitch-black, sinister blade aura burst forth from the edge of the blade, carrying a wailing roar as it fiercely struck the array barrier.
Boom boom boom~~
Amidst the rumbling sound, brilliant golden flames clashed violently with the sinister blade aura.
Instantly, the Great Array shook, as if the whole True Yang Immortal City were trembling.
Shui Ling flew out from the True Yang Hall, gazing at Leng Xuan suspended in mid-air, with a solemn look in her azure eyes.
Feeling the Evil Qi drawing closer from the east, she instantly understood it was an attack from Unpredictable Ghost Sect.
Without hesitation, Shui Ling waved her hands, several talismans shot out from her palms.
The talismans turned into spiritual light and fled toward the southeast and north.
These were request-for-help Communication Talismans; though initially, Xiao Shan only mentioned requesting aid from Sky Cloud Sword Sect, she still made a plea to several major Demon Clans as well.
After sending the help request, Shui Ling breathed slightly easier, but just as she prepared to confront Leng Xuan, he suddenly spoke, "Come with me?"
"Where to?" Shui Ling asked perplexed.
"Drive me away!" Leng Xuan continued.
Shui Ling looked at him with confusion, what did he mean?
Why ask me to go with him?
Wasn’t he attacking True Yang Immortal City?
Or was he here to take me away?
"Who are you?"
"Leng Xuan of Unpredictable Ghost Sect!"
Shui Ling felt even more puzzled, since he was from Unpredictable Ghost Sect, why ask her to go with him?
Shouldn’t he be attacking the array?
