Scar-faced, originally feigning death, unexpectedly got hit by Mo Hua with a stick, and involuntarily let out a pained groan. But he had suffered a serious injury from the third-in-command’s claw, and his breath was weak. Facing Mo Hua, he had no power to resist, and even if he endured Mo Hua’s strike with the Qian Jun Stick, he could only bear it.

“Little ghost, how did you see through it?” Scar-faced endured the pain and asked, puzzled in his heart. This Turtle Breathing Method, which allowed him to hold his breath and feign death, was stolen from an old evil cultivator. That old evil cultivator relied on this technique to repeatedly turn danger into safety and barely survive, allowing him to live to old age. This Turtle Breathing Method was quite obscure, and very few cultivators could see its flaw. Even the third-in-command couldn’t detect it for a while. He couldn’t understand how this little ghost, who was young and shouldn’t have deep experience, could see that he was pretending to be dead.

Mo Hua let out a cold snort but didn’t want to answer him. His divine sense had now broken through its limit, and he possessed the divine sense of the Foundation Establishment realm. Although Scar-faced’s spiritual power circulation was slow, it wasn’t stagnant. Some minor spiritual power circulation was clearly visible under Mo Hua’s divine sense, so he couldn’t be deceived. Moreover, he was a demon hunter. Demon hunters must learn to see through the feigned death of demon beasts. How could he be deceived by Scar-faced’s crude Turtle Breathing Method?

As for the third-in-command, the reason he didn’t see through Scar-faced’s feigned death was twofold. First, his mind was completely focused on Mo Hua, neglecting his perception. Second, he was confident in his own cultivation and felt that with his move, Scar-faced was certain to die. Most importantly, he was not a demon hunter and had no experience in seeing through feigned death.

Mo Hua didn’t answer Scar-faced. Instead, he raised the Qian Jun Stick, activated the array, and broke Scar-faced’s four limbs one by one. Scar-faced was in extreme pain and said hatefully, “Little ghost, you and I have no grievances or enmity, why do you want to kill me completely?”

“No grievances or enmity?” Mo Hua raised an eyebrow and hit him again with a stick. “Those women who were harvested and supplemented to death by you, those cultivators who were chopped to death by your knife, what enmity did they have with you? Didn’t you still kill them completely?”

Scar-faced endured the pain and sneered, “Whether I harvested supplements or killed people, what does that have to do with you?”

“You guess.”

Scar-faced’s eyelids twitched. This little ghost didn’t follow common sense in his speech. He couldn’t guess what he was thinking, what he wanted to do, or even sense any killing intent. But he knew in his heart that this little ghost definitely wanted to kill him! Why? He should have never met this little ghost before, and there was no enmity, right. Scar-faced couldn’t understand and gritted his teeth, saying, “Where exactly did I offend you? Tell me clearly, let me die with a clear understanding.”

“I like to let people die without a clear understanding, it saves trouble like this,” Mo Hua said.

His unyielding attitude left Scar-faced with no options. Scar-faced’s mind raced, and he suddenly sneered, “Could it be that you want to act chivalrously and uphold justice, to intervene in unfair situations?”

Mo Hua ignored him and started calculating something. Scar-faced mocked, “This cultivation world is originally just the strong preying on the weak. You, being so naive and childish, won’t survive in the cultivation world. Sooner or later, you’ll die without a burial place…”

Mo Hua saw that he was nearing death but still chattering endlessly, so he drew another stick on his face. “What nonsense are you talking?”

Mo Hua thought for a while and took out a large handful of Demon Stench Grass from his storage bag. He twisted out the grass juice and dripped it on Scar-faced’s body, while continuing to say, “The strong preying on the weak is nothing but deceptive words…”

“When you are strong and want to bully the weak, you say ‘the strong prey on the weak.’ When you are weak and are bullied by the strong, you will say ‘the heavenly dao is completely just.'”

“In the end, it’s all just an excuse for selfishness and self-interest.”

Mo Hua finished twisting the grass juice and threw the remaining Demon Stench Grass all over Scar-faced’s body, saying, “Moreover, now, the person who will die without a burial place is you…”

Scar-faced smelled the stench on his body and said in panic, “What do you want to do?”

Mo Hua said, “This is Demon Stench Grass. Its rotten stench will attract demon beasts to come and eat you.”

“Didn’t you say ‘the strong prey on the weak’? I’ll just let you experience it once, as the weak, the taste of being ‘strongly eaten.’ See if you’ll still say that afterwards…”

Scar-faced’s eyes showed panic.

“Oh, right.” Mo Hua thought for a while and suddenly added, “You probably won’t have an ‘afterwards’… then just the next life, if you can still reincarnate as a human in the next life.”

Scar-faced’s eyes widened. “Good little ghost, your heart is actually so vicious!”

“Vicious?”

Mo Hua snorted coldly and said, “When you harmed others, you didn’t feel vicious, but when others harm you, you resent them for being vicious. This kind of double standard is not right.”

Scar-faced knew he was nearing death, and fear arose in his heart. His eyes rolled, and he said softly, “Little brother… no, little dao master, let me go. I will definitely change from now on.”

“Change what?”

Mo Hua started drawing an array on the ground, casually responding at the same time.

“I will do good and accumulate virtue from now on, not cultivate evil skills, and not do evil things!” Scar-faced said hurriedly.

“Really?”

“If I violate this oath, may heaven strike me down!” Scar-faced swore.

Mo Hua’s face showed hesitation: “Really?”

Seeing the situation, Scar-faced thought things had taken a turn for the better and immediately said, “Really! I will definitely eat vegetarian and do good from now on, and not do anything against the heavenly dao.”

Mo Hua pondered for a moment, nodded with satisfaction and said, “Knowing one’s mistakes and being able to change, there is nothing better than this.”

Scar-faced was overjoyed, “Then can you spare my life?”

Mo Hua smiled brightly, “No.”

Scar-faced was stunned.

“I was tricking you. Knowing one’s mistakes and being able to change, there is nothing better than this. This sentence is also nonsense. How can mistakes be changed so easily? A dog can’t even change its habit of eating shit.”

Scar-faced was furious. This little ghost was playing tricks on him! He struggled to get up, but suddenly discovered that at some point, this little ghost had already set up an array beside him, fixing him in place. This little ghost was talking nonsense with him to lower his guard, so he could set up the array and prevent him from struggling, ensuring his complete death! Now, the little spiritual power he had managed to recover was completely useless. As long as demon beasts came, he was sure to die!

Scar-faced’s heart filled with despair. He stared fiercely at Mo Hua, his expression ferocious and resentful. “Little beast, even if I become a ghost, I will never let you go!”

Mo Hua acted as if nothing had happened. The real green-faced little ghost had been “eaten” by him, and he was still afraid of this one who wished to become a ghost? Actually, those who can’t even be human can’t be fake ghosts? Scar-faced still wanted to scold him again, but Mo Hua had already finished what he needed to do and had no patience to talk nonsense with him.

“Then you remember well…” Mo Hua carried the Qian Jun Stick, walked to Scar-faced’s side, and looked down from above, saying, “If you were a human, I would let you die without a complete corpse. If you become a ghost, I can still make your soul scatter!”

“Just wait to die in peace!”

Without waiting for Scar-faced to say anything, Mo Hua raised the Qian Jun Stick and heavily smashed it down again. This strike used all his strength, and the momentum was heavy. Scar-faced was completely smashed unconscious. Mo Hua put away the Qian Jun Stick and nodded slightly. With Scar-faced unconscious, when he woke up, he would probably see himself being eaten by demon beasts and truly experience “the strong preying on the weak.” Mo Hua hit him unconscious to prevent him from screaming randomly, which could also be said to spare him the torment before death. After all, the waiting before death is the most painful. Mo Hua considered this “kindly.”

After finishing these matters, Mo Hua sighed again, and his mood became somewhat low again. He thought again of the woman who committed suicide in the night. Living was full of suffering, and even death was a luxury. He would now let this Scar-faced experience the torment and despair the woman suffered before her death. But his realm was low and his cultivation was limited, and this was all he could do for now.

Not far away, several demon beasts that came out at night, attracted by the rotten smell of the Demon Stench Grass and the stench of human blood, were greedily rushing towards the forest. Mo Hua’s divine sense had discovered these demon beasts early. He calmly and unhurriedly used his concealment technique to hide his figure. At the same time, he used the Flowing Water Steps to quickly move away in a direction where there were no demon beasts or the third-in-command.

He had stayed in Hei Shan Zhai for so long and experienced so many twists and turns. Now that he had finished everything, he could finally go home. Moreover, he didn’t need to have any more reservations on this journey. He had broken the Guanying Diagram, eaten the Green-faced Ghost, and refined his soul thoughts. Now Mo Hua’s divine sense was comparable to that of the Foundation Establishment realm. In these deep mountains, no one could see through his concealment technique anymore. As long as he got out of Hei Shan Zhai, he would be like a fish entering the vast sea. It would be absolutely impossible for these evil cultivators to find him again.
