Chapter 788 - 788 Mass Grave
Sikong Wuyuan understood Jiang Ming’s feelings and said, “I have a bit of an idea, but you’ll need to stay up late.”
“Tell me.”
Jiang Ming did not think it was a big deal and asked directly.
He felt that the most important thing now was to fulfill Liang Shengsheng’s wish so that Liang Shengsheng could reincarnate in peace or move on.
“At midnight, you can use your mana to draw an array and summon Liang Shengsheng’s soul. At that time, you can just give the bracelet to her.”
Sikong Wuyuan took a brush and paper from the side and quickly drew an array on it.
Jiang Ming took the array. “I see.”
They did not notice that their conversation was overheard by a servant.
However, the servant boy had misheard. He thought that Jiang Ming was using spiritual energy to extend his own lifespan. He immediately walked toward the study happily.
In the study, King Fengyu was reading in boredom.
He had been sick of reading council reports recently and wanted to read something fun.
The servant sneakily whispered to the eunuch, “I want to see the king. I have something to report to him. This matter concerns the king’s lifespan.”
His last sentence was extremely important. When the head eunuch came to the study room to make the report, he emphasized this sentence.
This aroused the interest of King Fengyu. He immediately threw the book aside and shouted at the door, “Let him in!”
He wanted to see what was related to his lifespan.
The head eunuch immediately let in the servant boy, who happily came into the study and told King Fengyu about the discussion between Sikong Wuyuan and Jiang Ming.
King Fengyu was already over fifty years old. Due to the bad sorcery that he had cultivated previously, he did not have much time left. Faced with the opportunity to extend his life, he was immediately excited.
He really needed to extend his lifespan. He was not willing to give the family business he had painstakingly built to his descendants.
“I understand. You can leave first.”
His expression was calm, and he did not look surprised at all. He waved at the servant boy and gave the head eunuch a look.
The servant boy did not notice the gaze of the head eunuch. He was puzzled by the attitude of King Fengyu, but he could only keep his confusion to himself.
“Thank you, Your Majesty,” the servant boy replied and retreated.
However, before he could leave, the head eunuch’s palm came down on his face.
King Fengyu knew that he was the only one who knew about this.
If it was not for the fact that the head eunuch was deaf and had only read the servant boy’s lips at the beginning, he would have killed the head eunuch as well.
After the head eunuch had disposed of the corpse, King Fengyu picked up his book unhurriedly and read it carefully. However, his emotions were not as stable as before.
The biggest problem now was that young boy, Ning Caichen, who had very powerful spiritual energy.
If Ning Caichen did not die, he would not be able to get the spiritual energy to extend his lifespan.
However, how many people could take care of Ning Caichen?
Still, if he gave up now, he would be giving up the chance to live forever.
He did not have many days left to live. He could not give up just like that.
If he missed this opportunity, it would be difficult to encounter such an opportunity in the future.
King Fengyu became anxious. After a while, he suddenly thought of someone, and hope lit up in his eyes.
He stood up and motioned for the head eunuch to leave. He wanted to rest.
The head eunuch tactfully kept his distance.
King Fengyu walked to the bedside of his bedroom and emitted colorful lights from his palm.
The bed instantly disappeared, leaving behind a huge empty shell.
The empty shell was very black, but there was a flight of stairs.
King Fengyu walked down the stairs, and the dark place was instantly lit up.
In front of him was a small secret room, which was fully furnished.
Not only that, but there was also a huge painting on the wall.
The painting depicted a beautiful woman. Her figure was graceful, and her eyes were seductive.
Upon seeing this painting, King Fengyu spread his hands and laughed out loud. “Succubus, it’s time for you to be born.”
As he was speaking, the painting started to move, shaking violently.
King Fengyu sat steadily on his chair and watched the movements of the painting.
The woman in the painting walked out of the painting alive.
“Master.”
She stepped forward and knelt before King Fengyu, her eyes filled with devotion.
“Kill Ning Caichen tonight!”
King Fengyu had a murderous look in his eyes.
The woman in the painting was a forbidden technique. If he used the woman in the painting, it would consume his lifespan.
But he did not care anymore. As long as Ning Caichen died, he would replenish his lifespan.
Jiang Ming and Sikong Wuyuan were still trying to recall what had happened to the person who looked exactly like Liang Shengsheng.
Sikong Wuyuan suddenly remembered that the array was still missing something. He immediately told Jiang Ming, “Ning Caichen, go to the nearby mass grave and get a Siming Bird feather. It’s necessary to cast the array.”
Jiang Ming said in confusion, “Siming Bird? What kind of bird is that?”
“It is a bird that likes to eat corpses. It looks unique, and its feathers are black and white.”
Sikong Wuyuan gave a simple description of the bird and then thought of something. He quickly continued, “Don’t let that Siming Bird get frightened. If it gets frightened, all its feathers will shrink back. Even if you kill the Siming Bird, you won’t be able to get those feathers.”
“How troublesome.”
Jiang Ming stood up.
He did not know how many times he had gone already.
“There’s no other way. When the Siming Bird’s matter is resolved, we can cast the array.”
Sikong Wuyuan comforted Jiang Ming.
Jiang Ming shrugged. “Let’s see. I’ll go first. If Liang Sisi needs anything, just give me a signal.”
He went out again.
Zhu Dage was looking for Ning Caichen’s residence. When he saw Ning Caichen’s shadow, he quickly stepped to the side and cursed Jiang Ming in his heart.
This damned brat was actually living so happily!
It was a pity that he still had to suffer from his illness! He had to make this kid suffer no matter what.
At the thought of this, he immediately followed Jiang Ming.
Jiang Ming asked around and finally arrived at the mass grave.
Corpses were scattered all over the place, and the buzzing of flies could be heard. The surroundings were filled with a gloomy atmosphere.
Some of the corpses had no clothes, while others had clothes.
Some of the corpses had already rotted beyond recognition, making people feel disgusted.
