Chapter 532 Resurrection From The Dead

Inside the courtyard, Gui Puti sat back in the main seat of the Grand Master's chair. She drank the tea Xu Han had brewed for her and swung her feet in the air.

On the side, Fang Ziyu lowered his head and covered his ears. His face was filled with grievances, and of course, he was also filled with indignation that he didn't dare to say anything.

Gui Puti seemed to be enjoying the treatment at this moment. She leisurely put down the tea cup in her hand and then looked at Fang Ziyu and asked, "Little Yu'er, how have you been practicing your cultivation recently?"

"Very good!" Fang Ziyu replied unhappily.

"Huh?!" But as soon as he said that, Gui Puti's cold snort came over.

Eldest Miss Fang's expression immediately changed. She quickly changed her words and said, "I mean, I practice diligently every day and forget to eat and sleep."

"Is that so?" Gui Puti clearly understood Miss Fang's nature and looked at Xu Han suspiciously as if he wanted to prove this point.

Xu Han was stunned. From what he saw, Fang Ziyu pulled Su Mu'an to eat here and play there every day. When had she ever cultivated a cultivation technique? But at the same time, Young Miss Fang kept winking at Xu Han. Xu Han understood. Although he felt a little helpless, he had to help Fang Ziyu to tell this lie. Thus, he nodded and said, "Ziyu is still very hardworking. He has memorized the teachings of Second Master Niang in his heart."

"Oh. That's good." Ghost Subhuti nodded his head in an old manner. Although he knew that Ghost Subhuti was probably over fifty years old, it still looked a little strange to make such a look on that young girl's face.

"Oh right, where's Meng Liang? Why didn't he see anyone?" Ghost Subhuti suddenly asked.

This problem was no longer abrupt enough to describe.

In the eyes of Xu Han and the others, this question could be said to be inexplicable.

Xu Han looked at Gui Puti in disbelief before carefully asking, "Second Martial Mother… I know what happened to Senior Martial Uncle made you feel very sad, but you still have to look forward. The dead are dead, the living are alive…"

Bang!

Before Xu Han could finish his words, a heavy chestnut was eaten on his forehead.

"I gave birth to you big-headed ghost! Does auntie look like an old fool?" Gui Puti seemed to have seen through Xu Han's thoughts as he shouted with a calm expression.

Xu Han did not dare to provoke the other party. He repeatedly smiled apologetically and said, "It doesn't seem like it. Second Mother has been like a day for a hundred years, and she has always been as beautiful as a flower."

"Humph!" Hearing this, Gui Puti, who was satisfied, sat back in his chair, but his brows furrowed. "So, didn't you see that brat?"

Xu Han also realized that Gui Puti's words were not a joke. He couldn't help but wonder, "Isn't Brother Meng still guarding the Mausoleum of the Sword? How can we see him?"

Fang Ziyu was also attracted by the conversation between Xu Han and Gui Puti. He stared at Gui Puti with his eyes wide open. Obviously, he was quite concerned about this matter.

Ghost Subhuti stood up. He slowly walked to Xu Han's front. At this moment, his brows furrowed deeper and deeper. She said, "Almost a month ago, I received news that I found traces of that brat in Long Zhou. Judging from his posture, he should be here to look for you. However, after that, he seemed to have disappeared from the world. After all, he is the only disciple of that bastard. If he dies like this, it would be difficult for me to hand him over. That's why I came here to ask you guys."

"Then where is he? Did something happen to him?" Hearing this, Fang Ziyu's expression immediately became panicked. She hurriedly asked, and her tone unconsciously grew a bit louder.

"Something happened?" However, her panic did not receive the response she deserved. Ghost Subhuti glanced at Fang Ziyu and narrowed his eyes as he said, "There are not many people in the world who can cause trouble for that kid, and most of them are under the surveillance of the Dark Asura Palace."

The information revealed in these words caused Xu Han's expression to change, but before he could ask, Gui Puti's voice sounded again, "Alright, you don't have to worry about that brat Meng Liang. I will solve it, but on the contrary…"

Ghost Subhuti paused for a moment before his gaze landed on Xu Han again. "Little Xu Han, come out and send Second Martial Niang off."

Gui Puti who said this clearly had something to say to Xu Han alone. Although Xu Han was puzzled, he did not suspect him. He nodded and wanted to follow him. On the contrary, Ye Hongjian, who had been silent all this while, stood up worriedly, but was stopped by the gaze Xu Han gave him.

On the other hand, Fang Ziyu, who was worried about Liang's safety, also wanted to follow, but was shocked by Gui Puti's gaze and did not dare to step forward.

"Practice your martial arts properly. Otherwise, when something happens, you will just stand by and watch as usual." Gui Puti said indifferently. After saying that, she led Xu Han out of the manor.



Summer was in full swing in Heng Imperial City, which was close to the end of May.

Most of the pedestrians on the streets of Crossing Imperial City were in a hurry and didn't want to stay any longer in the harsh sunlight. However, even so, the purple-eyed girl who was born like a porcelain doll still couldn't help but attract the gazes of the pedestrians.

However, Ghost Subhuti didn't care about this. After pondering for a while, she suddenly turned to look at Xu Han beside her and said somewhat annoyed, "Are children your age unwilling to listen?"

Ghost Subhuti spoke in the tone of an old mother educating a disobedient son. Although he knew that there was nothing wrong with Ghost Subhuti's words because of their identities, Xu Han couldn't help but be stunned. It wasn't that he didn't like Ghost Subhuti's sermons, but he simply didn't know what Ghost Subhuti meant.

Of course, Ghost Subhuti's next words soon dispelled Xu Han's doubts.

"Didn't I already ask Yuan Xiucheng to warn you? Don't go against Dark Asura Palace!" Gui Puti said with great dissatisfaction. After saying that, she sighed again, "Sigh, none of you guys let me feel relieved."

Only then did Xu Han react. It turned out that the cultivation of the Japanese Yuan had suddenly changed its temper and pointed out to him that there was a ghost Subhuti behind it.

At that time, he was somewhat touched. Although Gui Puti was a bit strange and rarely gave Xu Han a good look, he was actually always helping Xu Han.

Xu Han said sincerely, "Second Martial Niang's intentions are naturally clear to me, but there are some things …"

However, before he could finish speaking, he was interrupted by Gui Puti.

"You think you can stop them to stop the Dark Asura Palace plan? Both Liu Sheng and Liu Dingdang have given the Dark Asura Palace sufficient evidence to confirm their deductions. What you have done is meaningless. Their plan is still being carried out step by step, and you are being placed on the opposite side of the Dark Asura Palace because of your impulse. Do you know what this means? " Gui Puti's voice was a little low at this moment. Obviously, she was extremely dissatisfied with Xu Han's actions in the Demon Suppressing Tower. Of course, behind this dissatisfaction was her worry about Xu Han's situation.

Xu Han was unable to refute Gui Puti's words. He lowered his head and remained silent for a while before saying, "Of course, I know that this is not very useful. I just want to ask for a clear conscience."

The purple-eyed girl sighed and said angrily, "I don't understand why all of you in the Mausoleum of the Sword have this kind of virtue … Either you are righteous first, or you have a clear conscience."

Facing such a harsh rebuke, Xu Han could only smile bitterly, not daring to say another word, fearing that he would provoke Gui Puti's dissatisfaction.

Most likely, she felt that Xu Han's attitude of admitting his mistake was satisfactory. Ghost Subhuti's tone quickly eased. She said somewhat helplessly, "Fortunately, the Great Xia Imperial Court and the Sword Handling Pavilion are on guard against Dark Asura Palace. It will be difficult for Dark Asura Palace's forces to invade Horizontal Imperial City in a short period of time. Just give me some peace these days. I will try to help you deal with Dark Asura Palace."

Hearing this, Xu Han didn't dare to disobey and hurriedly cupped his hands in thanks.

"Thank you for what? Don't give me any trouble in the future. It's the best way to thank you!" Gui Puti said angrily.

"Right." Just as Xu Han was embarrassed, Gui Puti suddenly seemed to have thought of something. She added, "I don't know what you're going to do when you sneak into the Sword Handling Pavilion, but if you're done, hurry up and leave. Great Xia has been in a bad mood lately."

At this moment, the expression on Gui Puti's face became somewhat solemn. Xu Han was very clear that it was not a small matter for Gui Puti, who was a Ten Halls Yama, to reveal such an expression. He couldn't help but ask subconsciously, "What is Second Martial Niang referring to?"

Of course, Ghost Subhuti could tell that Xu Han was asking for her words. She glanced at Xu Han angrily, but she still replied, "Didn't you hear about the strange deaths of the Great Evolution Realm experts from various sects these days?"

"Of course I know." Xu Han nodded his head. Xiao Ran had only left Horizontal Imperial City to deal with this matter, but according to Nangong Jing, after all these days, Xiao Ran still hadn't obtained anything. With that thought in mind, Xu Han asked, "Does Mother know who is behind this?"

"Do you think I'm a Daluo Divine Immortal? Do you know everything?" Gui Puti replied impolitely.

"In my heart, Second Martial Niang is a Celestial Immortal." Xu Han had also roughly figured out Ghost Subhuti's path of whether to be soft or hard, so he naturally didn't hesitate to praise him.

"This smooth-tongued ability is something that those wooden men from the Sword Mausoleum cannot compare to." Ghost Subhuti snorted coldly. Although his expression was still not good, his tone was obviously softer.

After pondering for a few breaths, she said again, "Great Xia is much more powerful than Great Zhou, but do you think it is much weaker than the sects in Jianghu?"

Hearing this, Xu Han frowned. He thought carefully for a moment. If Great Xia's national strength was comparable to Great Zhou's, then the difference in strength between the two sects in Jianghu could be seen to be as far away as an immortal.

Xu Han had thought to himself more than once that if Great Xia could convince half or even a quarter of the Jianghu Sect's forces to attack the frontier together, Chen Zhouguo would have already been incorporated into Great Xia's territory.

"The Great Zhou Immortal is only Sikong Bai of the Exquisite Pavilion and Yue Fuyao of Heavenly Battle City, The Chen Kingdom is even more unbearable. Only Yan Qianqiu from Mount Li. On the other hand, almost all of the three sects and twelve towns of the Great Xia Sect have more than one immortal guarding them. There are more than twenty immortal major powers. Do you think the difference in numbers is really great in Great Xia or that cultivators from States Chen and Zhou are stupid? " Ghost Subhuti's eyes narrowed as she stared at Xu Han and asked meaningfully.

Obviously, Xu Han was not able to answer this question. He had indeed felt surprised when he knew about Great Xia's Jianghu power, but he did not think about the reason behind it. Now that Gui Puti had asked, it was difficult for him to give an answer. He could only say after thinking for a bit, "Perhaps it was because of the Demon Suppressing Tower."

Xu Han guessed uncertainly, and it was only natural that the answer was obviously wrong.

Hearing this, Gui Puti shook his head, "You have been to the Demon Suppressing Tower and obtained a high-level Origin Demon Energy. Although that thing is a good thing, in the matter of ascending to the Immortal Realm, this Origin Demon Energy can only add to the beauty, but it is rare to send charcoal in the snow."

Of course, Xu Han knew what Gui Puti meant. He had studied the source demonic power that the cultivators below the Grand Xia Immortal flocked to. He could indeed enhance the comprehension of the Grand Dao and increase the success rate of ascending to the Immortal Realm. However, this success rate was far from enough to allow an ordinary cultivator to ascend to the Immortal Realm. Naturally, he could not explain why there were so many Grand Xia Immortals.

He looked at Gui Puti again and asked, "Second Mother, do you mean that there are so many immortals in Great Xia and there is something else behind them?"

Gui Puti shrugged his shoulders and said, "I don't know if it's a secret or not, but Senluo Palace has wanted to infiltrate Great Xia since ten years ago. However, the number of immortals in Great Xia is truly frightening. It's probably because of this that someone in Senluo Palace studied the situation in Great Xia's Jianghu for a long time, and then they discovered an interesting phenomenon."

Ghost Subhuti paused intentionally. Xu Han knew that Second Mother was trying to sell the matter, so he naturally had to cooperate with her. At that time, he asked, "What's going on?"

'"The same cultivation level," he said. "Yes, I mean the same cultivation level and combat strength in the Great Evolution Realm. However, for Great Zhou cultivators, the heavenly tribulation that they were unable to endure was something that Great Xia cultivators could easily overcome."

He seemed to think that this statement was too abstract, Ghost Subhuti continued, "I think you've seen Sikong Bai through the heavenly tribulation before, Although Sikong Bai had invaded the Dao of the Sword for many years, However, his talent was not outstanding. At that time, Yan Luo, who was in charge of collecting Jianghu people from the Great Zhou Dynasty, had asserted that it would be difficult for Sikong Bai to ascend to the Immortal Realm even if he died. This Yan Luo's sharp eyes rarely miscalculated what he said, but Sikong Bai seemed to have divine help in the final moments of resisting the heavenly tribulation. He actually did this.

"I have made detailed records here in Dark Asura Hall, A few days ago, your sworn enemy, the Scarlet Firmament Sect's Sect Leader, had a similar situation when he passed his third Heavenly Tribulation. In the future, I'm afraid you haven't heard of this news. That Sunset Cloud Valley's Luo Mo also passed the Heavenly Tribulation and ascended to the Immortal Dimension the day before yesterday, and the situation described earlier also happened to him. "

Saying this, Gui Puti stopped her words again. This time, it wasn't because she wanted to sell the matter, but because she knew that so much information had been poured into Xu Han's mind. This youth would probably need to spend some time digesting it.

As expected, Xu Han's eyebrows sank when he heard about these things. As far as he knew, the reason why Xie Min Yu had been chasing after them was because of Master Wei 's Golden Crow True Fire. He wanted to resist the third Heavenly Tribulation with this. With his unscrupulous posture, he obviously did not have much confidence in resisting this Heavenly Tribulation. After that, Xu Han had heard of Luo Mo, who Gui Puti had mentioned. This person could be considered a genius in his early years, but the sect immortal had unfortunately fallen. As a result, he was entrusted with the important task of lifting the sect's pillars at such a young age. It was probably also because of this that this person acted in a cowardly manner. Xu Han had also heard Xiao Ran assert that it was impossible for him to ascend to the Immortal Realm with his temperament. But he also did this. All these coincidences combined made Xu Han suspicious.

Furthermore, what Xu Han knew was that there seemed to be some connection between Sikong and the Supreme True Man of the Lunar Temple. At least, the motivation for him to seize the Heavenly Punishment Sword and kill the Great Zhou Ancestral Emperor was based on the motto of the Supreme True Man . At this moment, thinking back to the strange behavior of the immortals of Great Xia, a terrifying conjecture inevitably surfaced in Xu Han's mind.

"I know what you're thinking, but you still have to think about what kind of power those people who attacked the Great Xia Great Evolution Realm experts from recently are, and why are they doing this?" Gui Puti said again after about ten breaths of time.

Xu Han was stunned and couldn't help but feel a little strange, "Could it be that Senluo's intelligence network doesn't have the slightest clue to that group of people?"

Gui Puti shook his head helplessly. "This is what I'm worried about. That group of people appeared out of thin air. They couldn't help but disappear without a trace. After that, even though the Dark Asura Palace had the intention to investigate, they would often end up with nothing. Usually, they would only get the corpse of a Great Evolution Realm expert in exchange for a few days, but they wouldn't be able to find the murderer in the slightest. In my opinion, those who can do this are either evil spirits returning for revenge, or a group of Immortal experts sent out by a hidden sect. "

At this point, Gui Puti seemed to have thought of something and suddenly said, "Oh right, there's one more thing I don't even know about the Sword Handling Pavilion. Those Great Evolution Realm experts from the various sects that died discovered that they were almost all attacked by the same cultivation technique."

Hearing this, Xu Han frowned even deeper. He lowered his head and remained silent.

Seeing his expression, Gui Puti seemed to feel that this topic was too heavy. She said in a relaxed tone, "Whether it's revenge of evil spirits or insurrection by immortals, you should leave this place after you've finished your work. After all, your life is of the utmost importance."

After saying that, she looked at the sky and prepared to leave.

But at this moment, Xu Han, who had lowered his head and remained silent, suddenly spoke out.

"Perhaps it's not a ghost or an immortal…"

"Huh?"

At that time, the youth's eyes lit up with a gloomy light. He stared at Ghost Subhuti and said in an extremely strange tone, "It's the undead who returned from hell."
