Gu Ye

Chapter 712 Grandpa is Gone

Bang!

Without the boost of energy, Yu Shuntian would have been unable to withstand this blow.

He was blasted away like a cannonball, crashing into a tree.

Yu Shuntian's face was extremely pale. He watched the enraged female ghost running towards him, utterly powerless.

He didn't even have the strength to stand up.

Was he really going to use that move?

Yu Shuntian drew a silver needle from his waist, hesitating.

Using that needle meant certain death for him, but it could take the ghost with him.

The female ghost's ghostly energy was still continuously leaking out, causing her to walk unsteadily.

Seeing the approaching female ghost, Yu Shuntian didn't hesitate. He thrust the needle towards his own chest.

At this critical moment, a voice came from behind the female ghost: "Evil spirit, do not harm my Gu Ye."

"This is!" Yu Shuntian was both surprised and delighted. He looked up.

He saw Yu Daochen leap high from behind the female ghost, raising the flame-wielding Kanglong Jian in his hands, and then slashing down with a roar.

"Hah!"

The female ghost turned her head and saw the Kanglong Jian already upon her.

Bang!

The Kanglong Jian struck the female ghost's forehead squarely, sending her reeling, disoriented.

Yu Daochen didn't give her a chance to retaliate. The moment he landed, his fingers traced the Kanglong Jian, reigniting a fierce flame, and he slashed towards the female ghost's chest.

The flaming sword energy, along with the female ghost, slammed into the tree behind her and then exploded.

Yu Daochen looked at his grandfather, who was leaning against the tree, slumped on the ground, and hurried over.

"Grandpa, are you alright?" Yu Daochen looked at his grandfather, whose face was extremely pale, filled with heartache and anger.

"Quick... quickly finish her!" Yu Shuntian said, then slowly closed his eyes.

Any technique that forcibly enhanced one's power came with a price, more or less.

The Thirty-Six Heavenly Yang Needles were no exception, though the price was very small.

This entire maneuver only cost him one year of lifespan, which was quite reasonable.

However, the Thirty-Six Heavenly Yang Needles had another drawback: after using the needle, one would fall into a state of extreme exhaustion.

The body would be utterly fatigued.

"Grandpa, Grandpa!"

Yu Daochen thought his grandfather had died. Tears involuntarily streamed down his face as he gripped the Kanglong Jian tightly.

"Don't worry, your grandson will avenge you!"

Yu Shuntian was too exhausted to speak. He merely nodded slightly, managing to utter a few words: "Yes, my good grandson, hurry and avenge your grandpa."

"Alright, I'll go avenge Grandpa now."

Yu Daochen stood up and was about to leave when he suddenly realized something.

Wait a minute.

He turned to look at his grandfather and said happily, "Grandpa, you're alright."

Hearing these words, Yu Shuntian, angered, opened his eyes and looked at Yu Daochen, coughing a few times: "You unfilial descendant, are you trying to attend your grandpa's funeral?"

Yu Daochen happily rubbed the back of his head and chuckled, "How could I? It's just that you're still alive, and your grandson is happy."

"..." Yu Shuntian looked at the female ghost, who had long since disappeared, with disbelief: "Not good, that thing has escaped."

Hearing this, Yu Daochen also turned to look.

The female ghost had vanished without a trace at some point.

"We can't let the tiger return to the mountain. I'll go finish her!" Yu Daochen said, preparing to pursue.

Yu Shuntian nodded and cautioned, "Although I've already severely wounded that thing, still be careful."

The female ghost was at the end of her rope, her strength barely that of a冥鬼 (Ming Gui - Underworld Ghost).

With Xiao Hen's strength, dealing with her was perfectly suitable.

Yu Daochen nodded and stepped forward in pursuit.

A silver needle was lodged in the female ghost's body, and her ghostly energy continued to leak out. She couldn't escape as a wisp of smoke and could only stumble forward on her feet.

Yu Daochen pursued her all the way. Seeing the fleeing ghost ahead, he gripped the Kanglong Jian and charged.

The female ghost also saw Yu Daochen and glanced at the Kanglong Jian in his hand. She knew this wasn't the time to confront him head-on. She pleaded, "Spare me. Let's mind our own business, how about it?"

"Spare you?" Yu Daochen chuckled lightly, finding it amusing. "Do you think I'm an idiot, or are you? Let the tiger return to the mountain only for it to come back for revenge?"

The female ghost quickly shook her head: "Don't worry, I will never retaliate against you. I can swear to the heavens."

Hearing this, Yu Daochen stopped and looked at the female ghost, asking suspiciously, "Really?"

Seeing a glimmer of hope, the female ghost nodded repeatedly, pulling down the clothes on her chest: "Really, I will never seek revenge."

Yu Daochen, though outwardly expressionless, inwardly clicked his tongue at the female ghost's seductive movements.

Trying to use seduction?!

However, it had to be said, this female ghost had both a good figure and a beautiful face; she was indeed a great beauty.

Too bad... she was a ghost.

Seeing that Yu Daochen was captivated by her dance, the female ghost became even bolder.

She was very good at dealing with such pure, innocent young men.

Yu Daochen was not swayed by this tactic at all. He asked, "You promise not to come back for revenge?"

"I promise not to come back for revenge."

After speaking, the female ghost's voice became alluring: "Actually, you can ask me to do other things."

"Other things?" Yu Daochen put on a lewd smile and walked closer: "Anything?"

The female ghost had let down her guard, her dress almost completely pulled down. She chuckled inwardly.

Just as she thought, a naive, inexperienced virgin.

So easily dealt with.

As long as she could absorb his essence, even in her current state, she wouldn't be able to ascend to the ranks of ghost immortals, but restoring her peak strength would certainly be possible.

The moment Yu Daochen reached the female ghost, he suddenly swung the Kanglong Jian: "Then please die."

Yu Daochen's sudden move caught the female ghost completely off guard. By the time she reacted and tried to dodge, it was already too late.

The Kanglong Jian struck her head squarely. The female ghost was instantly sent reeling back.

Strike while the iron is hot!

Yu Daochen's fingers traced the Kanglong Jian, igniting a fierce flame, and he slashed forward.

The flaming sword energy struck the female ghost, setting her ablaze. Yu Daochen felt the heat wasn't enough. He formed a hand seal, took a deep breath, and exhaled a torrent of flames.

The torrent of flames hit the female ghost, and the fire raged even more fiercely.

Yu Daochen spat disdainfully to the side: "Bah, even if you, you seductive slut, were naked and lying on the bed, I wouldn't get hard."

"Ah~ Ah~"

The female ghost's screams echoed from within the flames. Yu Daochen's left eye narrowed slightly, and black liquid filled his entire eye socket.

It was time to deliver the fatal blow.

Several drops of Samsara Blood Tears floated in the air, condensing into a short sword.

Yu Daochen controlled the floating Samsara Blood Tears short sword, looking at the female ghost engulfed in flames, and slowly said, "I don't like killing, but you forced my hand. Then I have no choice. Go to hell."

As soon as the words fell, Yu Daochen controlled the Samsara Blood Tears short sword and shot it forward.
