Eaten by “bad things”?

Zhang Quan was greatly angered, “What nonsense are you talking about?”

“If you don’t believe me, then forget it.”

Zhang Quan suppressed his anger, “You’d best tell me the truth.”

“Alright then,” Mo Hua said with a serious small face, “I’ll tell you the truth. Actually, it was I who ‘ate’ all your old ancestors!”

Zhang Quan was extremely angry:

“You damn little ghost, full of nonsense, playing with me again, do you take me for a fool?!”

Mo Hua was helpless.

If he told lies, Zhang Quan wouldn’t believe him. If he told the truth, Zhang Quan still wouldn’t believe him. There was nothing he could do.

It was Zhang Quan himself who wanted to be a fool.

Lu Chengyun feared that Zhang Quan might be angered to some bad outcome, so he said to Mo Hua:

“Little mister, it’s getting late. You can rest for a bit…”

“This Liu has specifically ordered people to prepare a room for little mister. I hope little mister likes it.”

Mo Hua secretly glanced at Zhang Quan, making a show of being “afraid.”

Lu Chengyun sighed and said to Zhang Quan:

“Little mister is an honored guest. You cannot be rude, cannot disturb him, and even less can you have other thoughts…”

His tone wasn’t heavy, but his gaze was icy cold, leaving no room for refusal.

Zhang Quan’s mouth twitched. He clenched his teeth tightly and said:

“Good, I’ll remember that!”

Lu Chengyun nodded slightly.

Mo Hua also nodded proudly and said to Zhang Quan:

“Remember, I am an honored guest!”

Seeing Zhang Quan about to get angry again, Lu Chengyun quickly said:

“Someone, lead little mister to his room.”

Mo Hua saw a good opportunity to leave, cupped his hands, and said:

“Many thanks for Family Master Lu’s hospitality.”

Then, with his small hands behind his back, he swaggered out of the hall, following a corpse cultivator.

The more Zhang Quan looked, the angrier he became. His fingers grabbed the stone table, and he hard-bornly dug out five finger holes in the stone table.

Lu Chengyun shook his head, “He’s just a child, Brother Zhang, why must you get so angry?”

Just a child?

Zhang Quan sneered in his heart.

That’s because you haven’t been angered by him before.

If you had been angered by him, you’d probably want to kill him even more than I do. It’s just that you’re not here, lightly saying sarcastic words like “just a child.”

Zhang Quan was about to open his mouth to say something.

Lu Chengyun then slightly shook his head at him, “Small impatience can mess up big plans.”

Zhang Quan could only swallow this frustration, but he was still very unwilling and said sinisterly:

“Brother Liu, this little ghost must have a second heart!”

Lu Chengyun didn’t mind, looking at Zhang Quan with a faint smile, “Brother Zhang, do you yourself have no second heart?”

Zhang Quan froze, his gaze shifted slightly, and he forced a smile, saying:

“Brother Liu is joking.”

Lu Chengyun said plainly:

“In this world, only between yourself and yourself is there no second heart. Besides this, between father and son, brothers, and husband and wife, there is all a second heart. It’s just a matter of the lightness or heaviness of that heart.”

“You have a second heart, little mister has a second heart, and the corpse cultivators in this cave, more or less, all harbor some other thoughts…”

Lu Chengyun smiled slightly, “These are actually all not important.”

“As long as this little mister can do things for me, it doesn’t matter if he harbors a second heart. In other words, it’s only normal for him to harbor a second heart.”

“If he didn’t harbor a second heart, I would start to doubt.”

Lu Chengyun looked at Zhang Quan faintly, “Brother Zhang, you are also the same.”

Zhang Quan’s surface was calm, but cold sweat seeped out internally.

Zhang Quan cupped his hands and said: “Family Master, rest assured, this Zhang will work like a dog and horse for the Family Master.”

Lu Chengyun smiled faintly, neither affirming nor denying.

His gaze condensed slightly, looking at Zhang Quan, and he instructed again:

“That little mister will temporarily stay here to help me. Before the matter is complete, I don’t hope that you all will make things unpleasant again, and even less do I hope to see him suffer any mishap.”

“Brother Zhang, do you understand?”

Zhang Quan frowned, “Brother Liu, I will naturally obey your words, but that boy, although he is a little ghost of ten-something years, no matter how good his talent is, it’s not worth Brother Liu uplifting him so much…”

Lu Chengyun pondered and said:

“This little mister’s array drawing is extremely good.”

Zhang Quan clearly didn’t believe it, “How good can it be?”

“Brother Zhang doesn’t understand arrays, so telling you is useless…”

Zhang Quan was slightly angry, “This…”

Lu Chengyun glanced at him and slowly sighed, saying:

“I can only say that this little mister’s array attainment far exceeds Brother Zhang’s understanding of arrays. In some places, even I myself have to admit I’m not as good…”

Zhang Quan’s gaze was slightly shocked.

He didn’t expect Lu Chengyun to evaluate this little ghost so highly.

Lu Chengyun seemed gentle, but he was always proud. His usual praises were polite and hypocritical.

But this time was different. His expression and tone didn’t seem fake.

Did this little ghost really have such great ability?

Zhang Quan’s brows furrowed even tighter.

He could conceal himself, use that strange fireball technique, have a pair of unusually cultivated senior brother and senior sister protecting him, possess extremely deep array attainment, and now even Lu Chengyun was elevating him so much…

Then wouldn’t it be even harder to kill him?

“Playing me, destroying my family business, insulting my ancestors, when can these grudges be repaid?”

Zhang Quan’s gaze was sinister, and he silently said in his heart:

“It won’t work on the surface. It seems I can only secretly find a way to strike.”

But he said: “Family Master, rest assured, I know my limits.”

Lu Chengyun glanced at Zhang Quan, his gaze obscure, and didn’t speak.

On the other side, a corpse cultivator led Mo Hua to his room.

This room was a stone chamber.

It was relatively hidden, relatively safe, but also easy to guard. Around it were even set up arrays.

This also conformed to Lu Chengyun’s approach.

On one hand, he was trying to win Mo Hua over, and on the other hand, he was guarding against him.

Inside the stone chamber, the furnishings were exquisite. There were screens with flowers and birds, jade artifacts, all present, and incense was burning, with no rotten smell.

Mo Hua even had an illusion.

As if he were not at this moment in a gloomy, rotten corpse mine full of coffins, but in an exquisitely arranged guest room of the Lu family.

Lu Chengyun’s action was indeed very thoughtful.

But Mo Hua also wasn’t moved.

Lu Chengyun treated him so well, his scheme must be even bigger.

This kind of person was hypocritical and self-interested. When you had value, he treated you kindly and meticulously.

Once your value was used up, you would just be kicked away. After kicking you away, he would probably still stab you a few times from behind, killing you to silence you.

He was a traitor of Lingyin Sect who could betray his master and destroy his ancestors and seize inheritances.

He could hide his name and change his appearance, entering the Lu family as a son-in-law.

He could, with the identity of a son-in-law, gain the recognition of the Lu family’s old ancestor, who had the title “Lu Pielian” (Lu the Skinner), successfully be elected as the Lu family master, and maintain the Lu family’s exploitation of the mine cultivators and operate the luxurious Jin Hua Street.

How could this kind of person be that gentle and elegant person he appeared to be?

What’s more, he was still partnering with Zhang Quan to refine corpses.

Building a corpse mine, drawing evil arrays, stocking zombies, refining iron corpses, not knowing exactly what their plot was.

What kind of corpse was the “stronger zombie above iron corpses” that Lu Chengyun mentioned?

These all needed to be figured out.

Mo Hua wrinkled his brows, thought for a while, and sorted out the matters he needed to do next.

First, ensure his own safety.

Then, feel out the pattern of the corpse mine.

Find a way to send a message to his little senior brother and little senior sister, letting them come to receive him.

After that, help Lu Chengyun with his tasks, see what he wanted him to do exactly.

If it was refining corpses, what corpses were they refining?

And he wanted to find an opportunity to find a complete spirit hub array diagram.

Also, the ancestor diagram in Zhang Quan’s hand.

Zhang Quan’s killing intent towards him was too strong. He wanted to find a way to trick and kill him, then snatch back his “zombie diagram.”

His divine sense still wasn’t “eaten” full yet.

And Zhang family’s entire door of zombies, not a single one was a good thing.

Eliminate evil completely, to cut off future troubles.

Mo Hua wanted to exterminate Zhang Quan’s old ancestors, cut off his Zhang family’s inheritance, to prevent anyone from refining corpses and harming people again.

Furthermore, he wanted to find a way to target the Lu family…

Mo Hua calculated in his heart, and involuntarily sighed, “So busy…”

Why were there so many things to do?

He was a bit tired, lay flat on the bed, rested for a while, then his spirit lifted.

“One by one, let’s go…”

First, he wanted to feel out the pattern of the corpse mine.

When entering a strange place, it was certainly necessary to first become familiar with the environment, thereby seeking advantage and avoiding harm, evading unknown risks.

This was a hunter’s basic principle.

It was also what his dad, Mo Shan, taught him.

Mo Hua kept it in mind.
