Chapter 730: Helian Wei Wei, Jia Jue

A hidden ridge could be found within Mount White. Throughout the year, it was blanketed by a thick fog and untouched by sunlight.

The sky outside the ridge was pitch black and filled with lush gray clouds that rolled in an irregular pattern. Towering trees made the path appear awfully eerie.

No coachmen would dare set foot in that place as large boulders often fell onto the narrow carriage path, eventually disappearing over the edge into the seemingly bottomless abyss.

The word ‘tomb’ would make the townspeople tremble and pale, although they also seemed slightly excited.

They were wanted to go, but they were simply too afraid to do so.

If one did not have the Art of Exorcism, no one would dare to step into that realm.

Unless one was sick of being alive, and was simply seeking death.

Legend had it that a devil roamed the path leading to the tomb, waiting to lure passersby into sinning.

Thus, hunters dared not go near it even during the day.

Despite so, the elites among the exorcists, known as the true Exorcising Tribe, resided halfway up Mount White.

There were four main factions within the Exorcising Tribe.

Each division was supported by the power of an influential family.

The Ni family was the most prominent. Their exorcising ability was the most powerful, and they did business besides exorcism. Over time, a well-established production line of exorcising products was put into place...”

Helian Wei Wei studied the letter in her hands and narrowed her eyes. The Ni family? Ni Feng? Is this really a mere coincidence?

Helian Wei Wei recalled what the Son of the King of Hell had mentioned before. The Exorcising Tribe desired the Sarira of the eminent monks for the sole purpose of reviving the dead.

The suggestion for the retrieval of the Sarira was also raised by the Ni Family...

Helian Wei Wei had a hunch that Ni Feng might have already returned since that incident. However, she lacked a suitable physical body, which explains why the relic was needed to carry out the Art of Resurrection.

However, anyone with experience in exorcism should know that the Art of Resurrection was a forbidden art. If the art was activated, the world’s order would be disrupted. Then, the living would perish and the dead would be resurrected. Consequently, resentment would run wild and the human world would plunge into purgatory.

Without the Sarira, the spiritual aura would simply disappear.

Once the Art of Resurrection was activated, ordinary people without spiritual aura would become zombies when revived.

Ni Feng knew this clearly, yet she still wanted to retrieve the Sarira. Clearly, she was making empty promises when she proclaimed that she wanted to safeguard justice in the human world.

Helian Wei Wei’s thoughts wandered as she began analyzing the relationships between the families.

They could not just enter the contest, so they needed to blend themselves into one of the families somehow.

Besides the Ni family, which one of the remaining three families would be the most suitable and most convenient one for them to ally with...?

“Eat something. Let the others worry about this stuff.” His Highness said in a neutral tone as he reached over and tapped his slender fingers on the word ‘Zhuge’. Then, he sent a piece of pastry into Helian Wei Wei’s mouth.

Helian Wei Wei knew that this was His Highness’ prowess. She remembered how capable he was at capturing others’ hearts when they left the palace. It would be apt to leave the matter of disguising to him.

As she was thinking, the carriage came to an abrupt stop.

“Master, there is a duel going on outside and our carriage cannot pass,” Shadow’s voice sounded from outside the carriage.

“What kind of a duel wouldn’t even allow a carriage to pass through?” Helian Wei Wei raised an eyebrow, baffled. From the information she had received, there should not be any contests going on as of late in the Exorcist City, aside from the tomb entrance contest that would be held three days later. So, what was going on with this duel right here?

“Let’s take a look.”

When she emerged from the carriage, Helian Wei Wei could feel the tides of spiritual aura gushing in from the surroundings.

It was different from the spiritual aura in the palace. It was so dense that even breathing felt laborious.

Nothing less was expected from the legendary Exorcist City...

The debate gradually grew louder as people began to gather around. When Helian Wei Wei alighted the carriage, she heard someone snorted nearby, “The Zhuge family’s face and dignity will surely receive a heavy blow this time.”

“It’s difficult to say. If the Zhuge family didn’t pick a fight by insisting that the Ni family held ulterior motives to enter the tomb, the Ni family wouldn’t be so enraged. The Zhuge family clearly does not have the power to stand up against the Ni family, yet they dare seek trouble. However, the Ni family showed that they can pressure the Zhuge family with merely a few apprentices. From what I see, the Zhuge family doesn’t need to join the tomb entrance contest to be held in three days’ time if this persists. For a true Exorcising Tribe to so weak, even an ordinary exorcist could be more powerful than them!”

People around them avidly discussed the matter.

At the center of the commotion, a young boy was standing there and said with gritted teeth, “Ni Hu, come at me if you have anything against us. Don’t hurt the others!”

“Zhuge Yun, look properly. I didn’t hurt anyone. It’s clear that you pieces of trash are dull! Didn’t you ask for a beating? Fine, I’ll satisfy you. Brothers, beat him up, as Young Master Zhuge had requested!” The man named Ni Hu did not even lift a finger the entire time. He merely stood there arrogantly in his white exorcising uniform, with a huge grin spread across his face.

They were bigger in numbers, while their opponent was evidently weaker. Thus, the power imbalance magnified his insufferable ego.

If it was a one-on-one, Zhuge Yun could still stand a chance. After all, he was not untalented, he was actually quite outstanding compared to his peers.

However, it was clear as day that Ni Hu was fighting unfairly with more people on his side..

Everyone in the Exorcist City knew that the Zhuge family once had the most powerful exorcist within the city. To everyone’s horror, Zhuge Yun’s father was mysteriously murdered five years ago and not even his soul was found.

Since then, the Zhuge family lost its core.

No matter how talented he was, Zhuge Yun stood no chance against the senior exorcists. Thus, he slowly learned to submit to humiliation in silence.

Thus, everyone was surprised when he openly taunted the Ni family by suddenly insisting that the Sarira must not be touched.

The Ni family did not let this slide. The older people would not harm him, but his peers would surely retaliate.

Ni Hu stared at Zhuge Yun, who was beaten to the ground. He walked over arrogantly and snickered disdainfully, “Why is the Young Master so fragile? Where is your dauntless attitude from earlier! Ha, you deserve this since you wanted to do things the hard way.”

Zhuge Yun remained silent. Everyone knew that he could not possibly utter even a single word. After being bludgeoned by five people, he was completely riddled with injuries.

However, Ni Hu still seemed discontent. Suddenly, he raised his foot and forcefully stepped on Zhuge Yun’s right arm!
