There was no other way, Wu Rong had no choice but to do everything by himself, leaving Bai Gu and the others so he could bring Fu Qing back to the villa. Wu Rong had great strength, supported Fu Qing with one hand, and was able to fill the bathtub with cold water with his free hand. With both hands occupied, Wu Rong had no time to care about Fu-daozhang behind him. When another person’s palm touched the back of his neck and kept kneading, Wu Rong’s body froze, and his conditioned reflexes wanted to throw Fu Qing out.
Unlike last time, this time the red lotus pattern on the back of Wu Rong’s neck was extremely thirsty for Yang Qi. The originally pale skin was reddened by the repeated rubbing, and it was as bright as a red lotus stain. The Yang Qi soaked it up, scorching hot, as if a fire had been ignited and sparks were burning everywhere.
Wu Rong took a deep breath, suppressed the urge to throw Fu Qing out, and wanted to open the water and throw him into the bathtub as soon as possible. His unwillingness to stop encouraged the behavior of the person behind him, and he acted even more unscrupulously.
“Hiss.”
Wu Rong’s body froze, a tingling sensation came from the back of his neck, the piece of flesh was grabbed, rubbed and gnawed. A strange feeling that Wu Rong had never experienced before made his scalp explode, subconsciously ‘tearing’ Fu Qing off from his back into the tub half filled with cold water.
Crash—
Water splashed, Wu Rong’s shirt was soaked, and his face was colder than usual. The gnawing sensation was gone, but the flesh on his neck was still hot, as if it was stuck into a furnace. The temperature in the bathroom continued to rise, and even the cold water could not relieve the hot feeling that came from the depths of his soul. Wu Rong exhaled slowly, pulled open his neckline in discomfort, and lowered his head to meet Fu Qing’s red-gold eyes.
Fu Qing opened his eyes at some point, and his black pupils were completely covered by the golden and red flames. The flames were burning blazingly, with enough heat to burn up everything in the world, which contradicted the constant indifference on his face. His pure white and black-striped Taoist robe was spread out in the water. The lotus crown could not hold his hair, and it too spread in the water. Fu Qing was like a crane drenched in rain, even though he was in a state of embarrassment at the moment, he did not change his cool and handsome demeanor.
“The Zhengyang Fire is about to advance.”
Fu Qing was still conscious!
Wu Rong looked at him in surprise, meeting Fu Qing’s gaze. Fu Qing stared at Wu Rong for a long time before slowly closing his eyes. The golden red flame faded away, and a tired look appeared between his brows. In Wu Rong’s impression of him, Fu Qing was always powerful and invincible, more like a killing machine than a human. It was these two accidents that made Wu Rong realize that Fu-daozhang also had a mortal body.
He seemed to be very tired now, and he paused for a while after saying those words, so long that Wu Rong almost thought that he had fallen asleep in the cold water, so he spoke again, word by word.
“The medicinal powder is just an introduction, the Zhengyang Fire should advance at this time.”
“But my soul is incomplete and I cannot continue.”
The golden red flames spread out, and the water was burning with a bright flame invisible to ordinary people, making Fu Qing’s skin whiter and jade-like, like an immortal dyed by the mortal world’s color. Wu Rong frowned, Fu Qing’s situation was more serious than last time. His second anomaly was largely due to the fact that the Zhengyang Fire was about to advance, which is the natural result of the Chunyang’s kung fu practiced to a certain level, just like the ripening of a fruit.
But his current situation did not allow it, so he had to forcibly end it.
How can it be ended?
Wu Rong’s breathing was a little short, his mouth was dry and his instinct and reason were tearing at his nerves. Wu Rong tentatively stretched out his hand, trying to touch Fu Qing’s forehead like last time, to give him some Yin, but his hand was caught halfway. Fu Qing didn’t open his eyes, but accurately grabbed Wu Rong’s hand. He was used to practicing swords, so his hands had thin calluses, his fingers were slender than others’, and he could easily grab Wu Rong’s hand and bring it to his face.

The hand holding Wu Rong’s touched his cheek, and the frowning brows were slightly relieved. His voice was extremely low, like a sleepy person’s mumble.
“A-Rong, I want some of your blood.”
Fu Qing tilted his head, and his hair spread out in the cold water. He never treated Wu Rong differently from others, and even in this situation he still had a negotiating tone that things would follow his way. His voice sounded very calm, and only the hot breath from his lips and the hand that tightly clenched onto Wu Rong could show that he had endured it for a long time and was about to not be able to endure it for any longer.
“……all right.”
The moment Wu Rong finished speaking, Fu Qing bit his fingertips. It was said that the ten fingers connect to the heart, but Wu Rong didn’t feel any pain, but more of an unbearable heat. Fu Qing didn’t bite his fingertips, but his soul. The icy cold collided with the fiery heat, and the shudder caused by him was like a storm. From his fingertips to his heart, the entire right half of Wu Rong’s body went numb, and a fire seemed to be burning inside his body.
Wu Rong had been enduring it all the time, but when the wet, hot feeling touched his fingertips, he raised his head unbearably, and a faint, inaudible moan escaped from his throat. Wu Rong felt that what Fu Qing said was not just one thing, but a billion of things. Wu Rong forgot when Fu Qing let go and how he staggered to his feet, closed the bathroom door, and staggered back to the living room.
Sitting on the sofa, Wu Rong was drenched all over, his shirt was completely soaked and stuck to his skin, and his dark jeans were soaked and tight, highlighting his clear shape.
Wu Rong closed his eyes, and beads of sweat slipped from the tip of his nose. He was a normal man, of course he would respond to this situation, but he had never been indifferent to his physical needs. Now the whole right side of his body was still numb, and his fingertips twitched from time to time. He was completely without vitality and unable to exert himself, it was like he fought a great battle.
Unable to use his right hand, Wu Rong was too lazy to move. He leaned on the sofa, took a deep breath, and wanted to wait for it to naturally cool down. His chaotic and complicated emotions made the black rock tarantula and the human-faced spider honestly hide away. They were also very afraid of heat and didn’t dare to approach the current Wu Rong.
But the Zhong Gu was overjoyed.
The Zhengyang fire was also the purest Yang flame. The reason why the Wu family did not list it as the pure fire attribute is because the Zhengyang fire was rare. Miaojiang and Longhu Mountain were separated by hundreds of thousands of miles. The Taoist priests on the mountain were the most cold-hearted and old-fashioned, which made it difficult to catch the fire. The second was because the Zhengyang fire was overly full of Yang energy, far surpassing other pure things.
Although the Zhong Gu was pure Yin, when its shell is broken, it must be in the harmony of the five elements and in the balance of Yin and Yang. Once the Zhengyang fire is added, it would completely overwhelm the Yin Qi and roast the Zhong Gu to death.
But Wu Rong’s situation was different.
He was too Yin, even if the five elements he found were all Yang, they may not be able to suppress his pure Yin soul. In particular, his physique was still becoming more and more Yin. In the end, even if he still had a human body, he would be no different from a ghost.
Wu Rong was in just the right position to receive the Zhengyang Fire.
The Zhong Gu was extremely happy, it felt empathy for Wu Rong, and its desire and greed for Yang Qi surged like a wave, guiding the Yang Qi to gather more towards Wu Rong. He tried to calm down after a long time, but instead of calming down, the Zhong Gu even lit another fire.
Wu Rong let out a breath of hot air slowly. Strands of hot sweat broke out on his pale skin, his eyes were still closed, the right half of his body was paralyzed and he could only use his left hand. His left hand was cold as if it had been frozen, and Wu Rong flinched from the icy stimulation. It was obvious that the right half of his body was so hot that it was about to melt, but his left arm was still icy cold. At this time, Wu Rong’s no longer calm mind remembered that there was still a big ghost living in his left arm. An inexplicably strange sense of shame arose in his heart.
He opened his eyes and lowered his eyes to look at his left hand. Wu Rong withdrew his ghostly hand when he left the underground box of the stadium. Now it was obviously his hand, but the extremely cold palm still carried a feeling that could not be ignored, a weird feeling. The hesitation was only for a moment as Wu Rong finally couldn’t bear it anymore.
Beads of sweat also appeared on his body that never sweated. At this time, Wu Rong’s thinking seemed to be very slow. He looked at his left arm, and the dark red and exquisite ghost pattern on it was particularly dazzling. The above ghost lines spread downward, crossed his wrist, and almost reached the palm of his hand.
The cold left hand didn’t seem to be his own anymore, as if being pulled and manipulated by someone to continue. The dark red blood on the arm was like a strange blood-colored vine, growing on Wu Rong’s heart, occupying every part of his body with every beat of his heart. This weird feeling of being controlled touched Wu Rong’s tense and sensitive nerves, but brought a stronger sense of stimulation. When the last moment came, Wu Rong’s muscles tensed up, sweat dripped down, and his mind went blank.
In a trance, Wu Rong seemed to see a tall and handsome figure whose face was not clearly visible, half-kneeling in front of him, in a strange place full of dark red flames and skeletons.
‘Today you should teach me what is desire.’
The voice between that of a teenager and a young man’s was cold and calm, as if talking about a research topic. His tone was also cold, without any extra emotion. The figure in front of him was at a stalemate for a moment, and finally let out a gentle sigh of compromise and indulgence. The person’s breath was cold and clean, with a hint of ice and snow, pure and addictive. His voice also struck like jade, familiar yet somehow unfamiliar.
He said:
“Okay, I’ll teach you.”
Wu Rong didn’t think he had slept for a long time, but when he woke up, his mind was a little groggy. He had almost forgotten the bizarre and messy dream, leaving only a faint sense of loss, as if a piece of his soul was empty. Taking out a few sheets of paper to deal with the leftovers, Wu Rong glanced at the phone, and saw that it was only two o’clock in the morning.
He went to wash his face, then stood outside the bathroom and opened his ghost eye to look. The Yang Qi that was originally violent and restless had now become peaceful and docile, wrapping the bathroom like a golden cocoon. Wu Rong didn’t bother Fu Qing and he went upstairs to the master bedroom’s bathroom to take a quick shower. He changed his clothes and contacted Bai Gu with his blood contract.
Too many things happened tonight, and it was basically confirmed that the Witchologist was Grandmaster Ling Yun, what was the spiritual weapon that could cause great ghosts to move and the agreement with Zhou Jin, the Secret Lotus Congregation’s Dharma King Fei, and Zhou Xinhong, the Patriarch of the Zhou family. Jieyang was like a vortex, and countless people and forces were involved in this Stone Gambling Conference. Wu Rong’s original desire to simply gamble with stones was not easy to achieve.
But some things have to be done.
As expected, Bai Gu was currently his most convenient subordinate, even at 2 o’clock in the morning, he was completely awake and was on standby all the time. As soon as Wu Rong sent an idea with the blood deed, he immediately brought unprecedented news.
“Cousin, Tan Yueyue and Deng San couldn’t stand the torture, so they came to ask me to release the Gu. I dug out a lot of information from them.”
“Zhou Jin’s mother, Daytime Empress Bai Mei’s physique was not a devil singing voice, but a devil and an angel. She should have died of exhaustion when she was three years old. But it’s been said that Bai Mei was unfortunately involved in the Tiankeng riot when the European Union was young, and miraculously, she survived and brought back Saintess Vivian’s relics from the Great Santorini Tiankeng. Only with her having enough luck for it to accept her, could she survive with this strange constitution. ”
“After the Daytime Empress passed away, this precious relic was lost and Zhou Xinhong is looking for it. He has contacted the Holy Wedge Society and promised to help find the handsome ghost, because the Holy Wedge Society seems to have a way to help him find this relic.”
Santorini Tiankeng?
Wu Rong frowned. Lama Sima Gyatso also died in the Youpotan Tiankeng, and now it involved Saintess Vivian, who died in the Santorini Tiankeng. It’s very likely that this special relic caused the big ghost to react.
If it was inferred in this way, is the abnormal reaction of the big ghost aimed at these nine savior heroes, or is it aimed at the Great Tiankengs?
Wu Rong originally deduced that the big ghost was related to the Fu family, so it seemed that he may have reacted to the relics of these heroes who saved the world. But everything was just inference at present, and further proof was needed. Wu Rong even thought about it deeply. The place where the big ghost unlocked the golden needle’s seal of his left ear was in the crevice of the Tiankeng, where there was a crack leading to the Great Youpotan Tiankeng.
Then to unlock the other seals on him, does he also have to go to the Great Tiankeng? Or does he need to go to the places where the heroes of mankind left their remains?
The Great Tiankeng.
The appearance of the Great Tiankeng was the initial source of the world’s spiritual recovery. When Wu Rong was reborn, to understand the world, he also learned about that period of history. Before being sealed by the nine heroes, ghost tides would erupt in the seven Tiankengs scattered around the world every once in a while, and the boundless ghost fog covered the sky like volcanic ash, turning the sky into a dirty gray.
There would be reddish snow in the sky, and a supernatural recovery would occur in the snow-covered places. The dead reappeared as ghosts, and the Ghost Territory spread and engulfed whole cities. Supernatural events such as the No. 444 High School, ghost calls, and slit throat ghosts emerged endlessly. The more people a ghost devoured, the stronger their power would be, and the formed Ghost Territory would turn cities or villages into dead zones.
Had it not been for the nine heroes who sacrificed themselves to seal the Great Tiankeng, the human race would have been extinct.
What was the identity of the big ghost in this?
Was he a ghost in the Tiankeng, or a former partner of the heroes? And how did he fall into such a situation?
The information related to the Great Tiankeng were all the world’s most confidential secrets. What was shown in the textbooks was just a few sentences, and all the information found on the Internet were shocking stories that were difficult to distinguish between truth and falsehood.
Because of the big ghost, Wu Rong became more interested in the Great Tiankeng.
He didn’t have the authority to see this information, but someone else could.
It was the night. After being irascible and perfunctory to the Zhou family, getting rid of the stalkers, grabbing the Coffin Old Man and beating him into a little man. Master Ling Yun was trembling when he received the first message that Wu Rong took the initiative to send him.

Oh-ho. RIP Ling Yun’s anxious soul. 😁
Thank you for the update.
Such a busy night.
Thank you for the update ❤️💯
it was hot 🔥🔥🔥🔥
Thanks for the chapter!!! ❤️❤️❤️
I’m sticking strong with my theory of Big Ghost not being the first timeline Fu Qing but Fu Qing’s past life reincarnation that was born during the timeline of the Tiankengs emergence!!!! So if I believe that then I believe Wu Rong is the reincarnation of Sima Gyatso!!! Idk how it works but then his bad luck would make sense because of the influence of the Tiankeng after he sealed it (?)
So many thing happened here, and it’s been like what? Only a few days after MC got some power? I don’t think it’s barely reach a month. And I’m betting almost none of the readers this far remember that ghost king lantern was supposed to arrive shortly and brought end to MC’s hometown.
Btw what purpose was even the duel with evil miao? MC already strong AF now, not to mention 1 year later. He might have gotten married at that point lol.
