Chapter 190 Demon Tears

When I looked at Cang Tianji, the blind cane in her hand had already turned into a black iron staff as tall as her eyebrows.

At the top of the staff was a teardrop-shaped gem, its blood-colored light eerie and chilling at first glance.

"Demon Tears!" Feng Ruohang and Du Song exclaimed almost simultaneously.

Demon Tears, the fourth-ranked weapon among the Ten Evil Weapons, had been in Cang Tianji's possession all along.

Before the shock in my heart could subside, Du Song suddenly grabbed a subordinate and hurled him towards the gate.

The screaming, flailing body had just crossed the edge of the gate when it seemed to collide with an invisible barrier. With a loud crash, blood and flesh flew in all directions. Before the airborne blood could dissipate, Du Song leaped towards the gate, a burst of thunderous sound erupting from his palms.

Transforming gang energy into thunder!

The Di Sha Realm!

Du Song's cultivation was a realm higher than ours.

Du Song alone was enough to suppress the three of us. Coupled with the three hall masters under his command, we stood no chance!

My first reaction was to grab Cang Tianji and retreat, "You two go somewhere else, quickly!"

Ye Yang and Feng Ruohang, with hardly any hesitation, leaped up, shattering the window lattices, and flew out of the courtyard from the other side.

When the experts from the Reincarnation Division tried to stop them, Du Song shouted in time, "Don't mind them, capture Li Po and Cang Tianji."

I must say, Du Song's decision was very correct.

From his point of view, the ones who could break the ghost deity of Qingyan Village were Li Po and Cang Tianji. Stopping Ye Yang and Feng Ruohang would only be a waste of time.

Besides, once Li Po and Cang Tianji were captured, wouldn't Ye Yang and the others have to obediently return?

A double win, why bother chasing Ye Yang?

When Feng Ruohang heard Du Song's order, she paused, wanting to turn back, but Ye Yang grabbed Feng Ruohang's left hand and shouted, "Go!" Then, with a few leaps, he disappeared with Feng Ruohang into a nearby courtyard.

By the time the two of them stopped, there were no pursuers around, not even a sound. Although they were standing in the courtyard, it felt like they were in a tomb without sunlight or sound.

Feng Ruohang said anxiously, "We have to go back and reinforce Li Po!"

Feng Ruohang's voice wasn't loud, but it caused a series of echoes in the courtyard, as if someone was hiding in the dark, repeating Feng Ruohang's words. The moment the echo disappeared, Feng Ruohang even heard a bleak, cold laugh.

Feng Ruohang's hands sank at the same time, and a bloody light reflected on her fingertips. In just a short moment, Feng Ruohang's ten fingers carried a bloody, imposing aura.

Feng Ruohang reacted this way because she knew that a "friend" was coming.

In the mountains, the elders would definitely tell children: "Don't play with echoes. If you play with echoes too much, you won't know what's echoing you."

The elders only said not to play, but didn't know what was going on!

From the perspective of the Dao of术 (Shu Dao, arts), that's called "ghost talk." It's not scary to shout a few times in the mountains and have an echo, what's scary is the echo in special places, such as abandoned buildings, or places where there are echoes even when speaking normally.

In those places, every word you say will be repeated constantly, and the more times it is repeated, the farther it will travel. Until someone hears other words or laughter in the echo, it means that you have attracted something you shouldn't have.

At this time, you must shut up and not even make a sound when you land, so as not to give the other party a chance to respond to you.

If you subconsciously ask: "Who!"

Immediately, someone will slowly show their face in an unexpected place or corner, and tell you: "It's me!"

Feng Ruohang was ready to fight back when she heard the cold laugh at the end of the echo.

Ye Yang held Feng Ruohang down and said, "Ignore it! Ben Gou (stupid dog) letting us go is the real way to break the situation."

When Feng Ruohang looked at Ye Yang, he explained through sound transmission: "When Ben Gou came out of the cooking-people courtyard, he told me to take you away if I had the chance, and go deep into Qingyan Village to find what the village chief brought back."

"At that time, I didn't understand what Ben Gou meant. It wasn't until the Fate-Controlling Ghost Deity appeared that I understood that Ben Gou wanted to hold back the ghost deity and the Reincarnation Division with Cang Tianji, and let the two of us break the situation."

"They..." Feng Ruohang suddenly realized, "You mean, the Fate-Controlling Ghost Deity will only look for Cang Tianji?"

Ye Yang nodded and said, "Before we set off, you were always guarding against external enemies and didn't look at Old Liu's information. Ben Gou and I studied it together."

"Qingyan Village is a veritable ghost village, and some people have even seen villagers appearing neatly in the village."

"So, as soon as that old man appeared, Ben Gou suspected that the old man was not from Qingyan Village. He didn't want to take action after he came in because he wanted to find out the origin of the old man."

"It wasn't until Cang Tianji said that she was forced to come and find Ben Gou by the Oracle Curse that Ben Gou understood why only one old man appeared in the village, but no one else was seen."

"Because, the person that old man wanted to intercept was not us, but Cang Tianji. In other words, without the Oracle Curse on Cang Tianji, the old man would not have appeared."

"That old man should not be a ghost deity, but a curse spirit specially executing curses for the demon god. Or simply the demon god's incarnation."
