Chapter 1332: Free to Trample

As the oath was made, an inexplicable connection formed between Ye Yuan and the man.

“Guiyun pays respects to master!” the two-star evil spirit bowed in submission.

Ye Yuan nodded and said, “Mm, I need not elaborate on the use of the Hundred Ghost Dao Runes. As long as you serve me faithfully, I will gradually pass them on to you. If you can fully comprehend them, it is not impossible for you to become a Ghost Dao Heavenly Emperor!”

Guiyun’s face lit up with joy, and he quickly said, “Guiyun thanks master!”

“Alright, I will now take you into my随身 space. Do not resist,” Ye Yuan said indifferently.

It was normal for Divine Realm experts to possess some spatial treasures, so it did not surprise Chang Liang and the others too much.

Guiyun suspected nothing, but when his figure appeared in the Soul-Suppressing Space, he immediately sensed something unusual!

When he saw Wuchen, an overwhelming feeling of awe arose uncontrollably.

“Hehe, little ghost, you’re quite lucky! To gain intelligence at the two-star level and meet me, perhaps you will be the next Ghost Dao Heavenly Emperor!” Wuchen said with a smile.

A dignified two-star evil spirit became a “little ghost” in Wuchen’s mouth.

“S-senior, you are…?” Guiyun said cautiously.

Wuchen smiled and said, “I am Wuchen, like you, serving Ye Yuan as master.”

Guiyun suddenly realized that his fear of Ye Yuan probably stemmed from this old man.

“Senior Wuchen, what place is this? I feel it is very unusual,” Guiyun said.

“This is the internal space of a Heavenly Sovereign spiritual treasure, and I am its artifact spirit. From now on, you will live here with me. As long as Ye Yuan permits, I will naturally teach you the Hundred Ghost Dao Runes!” Wuchen said.

Guiyun’s mind buzzed, as if struck by a thunderbolt, going blank.

“S-senior, you… you mean… this is… a Heavenly Sovereign spiritual treasure?” Guiyun stammered.

The shock Wuchen’s words brought him was too intense.

This news was even more stunning than the Hundred Ghost Dao Runes!

A Heavenly Sovereign spiritual treasure—at Guiyun’s level, he simply could not imagine such an existence.

At this moment, he was immensely grateful that he had not tried to possess Ye Yuan earlier; otherwise, he would have died without knowing how.

If he had attacked Ye Yuan’s physical body, Wuchen would indeed have been helpless.

But if he dared to possess Ye Yuan and enter his sea of consciousness, that would be no different from seeking death.

No wonder Ye Yuan said he would only give him one chance—he wasn’t lying.

“That’s right, it’s a Heavenly Sovereign spiritual treasure, and a soul-type one at that! Little ghost, you are very lucky. If my strength had recovered a bit more, I might not have taken a liking to you! Even if you wanted to be Ye Yuan’s servant, you wouldn’t have the chance,” Wuchen said.

A two-star evil spirit was truly just a little ghost in Wuchen’s eyes.

If it weren’t for his current fallen state, why would he care about such a rookie?

Wuchen’s words made Guiyun nervous.

His current strength far exceeded his master’s, but if his master’s strength increased in the future and he no longer needed him, wouldn’t he be discarded?

Wuchen clearly saw his worry and said with a smile, “Put your mind at ease. That kid Ye Yuan values loyalty greatly. As long as you serve him wholeheartedly, even if he becomes a Heavenly Emperor in the future, he won’t do anything to you. He might even help you break through to the Heavenly Emperor realm! I won’t say more; you’ll know as you follow him. Now, let me teach you the first of the Hundred Ghost Dao Runes!”

The Hundred Ghost Dao Runes were the supreme method for cultivating the Ghost Dao.

As the name suggests, the Hundred Ghost Dao Runes were a hundred runes!

These hundred runes contained the supreme Dao of the Ghost Dao, profound and extensive.

Legend had it that fully comprehending these hundred runes would allow one to become the supreme Ghost Dao Heavenly Emperor, dominating the world!

For Guiyun, this allure was extremely powerful.

Heavenly Sovereign Xianlin was one of the strongest alchemists in the Tongtian Realm, and he specialized in the soul Dao.

He had obtained these Hundred Ghost Dao Runes from a Ghost Dao Heavenly Sovereign he had slain in the past, and he had studied them thoroughly.

With Wuchen’s strength, teaching Guiyun was naturally no problem.

…

Outside, Chang Liang and his four companions were completely dumbfounded.

Things had not developed as they had expected; the outcome was shocking.

That was a two-star evil spirit, capable of killing them with a flick of its finger, and yet it was subdued just like that?

When they learned that Guiyun was a two-star evil spirit, they thought they were doomed, but the ending reversed too quickly.

This two-star evil spirit had actually become Ye Yuan’s servant!

“M-master, what was that thing you drew? Why did that two-star evil spirit pledge allegiance to you as soon as it saw it?” Chang Liang asked, plucking up his courage.

Ye Yuan smiled and said, “You wouldn’t understand even if I told you. It’s something Ghost Dao cultivators study. You just need to know that taking him in is giving him a great opportunity. Since it’s an opportunity, why wouldn’t he pledge allegiance to me?”

Chang Liang and the others sincerely praised, “Master, you are truly amazing! We five brothers are convinced!”

Ye Yuan smiled and said, “Stop flattering me! Don’t you want to kill Wang Yutao with your own hands? Now you can trample him however you like!”

Chang Liang and the others trembled, their eyes filled with ecstasy.

Indeed, with a two-star evil spirit by their side, they could dominate the Yin Wind Cave.

What was mere Wang Yutao?

“Thud!”

Chang Liang and the others knelt down in unison. Chang Liang said, “Master avenges us five; we five worthless lives are now yours to command!”

Ye Yuan said indifferently, “Get up. The Wang family and I are already irreconcilable. Even if I weren’t avenging you, Wang Yutao must die.”

…

“Second Brother, if they don’t come out, are we really going to wait here for a whole year?” Wang Yuqian asked.

Even with their strength, being in a place where the yin wind blew all year round was extremely uncomfortable.

Wang Yutao said grimly, “What else can we do? Who knows what kind of evil technique that kid has cultivated to control evil spirits? Damn it! No wonder he spared no expense to enter the Yin Wind Cave—he must be cultivating some evil art!”

Wang Yuqian thought for a moment and said, “Second Brother, how about… we invite Big Brother? I think that kid is too sinister; waiting like this won’t work!”

Wang Yuqian’s proposal tempted him greatly, but soon he shook his head and said, “How can we face Big Brother looking like this? If I don’t kill that kid, I won’t be able to quell the hatred in my heart!”

“Oh? Second Elder is so eager to kill me? I wonder what I did to offend you, to make you hate me so much?” Just then, Ye Yuan’s voice echoed in the cave.

“Ye Yuan!”

Wang Yutao and Wang Yuqian stood up abruptly, their eyes full of killing intent!
