124: Her confidence comes from me!

Early morning.

Chu Yuan pulled the Little White Fox in his arms closer, preparing to sleep a little longer.

Just then, the Little White Fox suddenly patted his face and called out, "Chu Yuan, the people you were waiting for seem to have arrived."

Hearing this, Chu Yuan opened his eyes and asked doubtfully, "Little White, who is coming?"

"Didn't you trick people into coming over? They are about to arrive," Little White chuckled.

Upon hearing this, Chu Yuan's pupils instantly contracted. He stood up and sneered, "These three are really punctual."

"I asked them to trick people into coming three days later, and they brought them here on the morning of the fourth day."

"Isn't that good?" Little White blinked its eyes and asked curiously.

"It's hard to say if it's good or bad!"

Chu Yuan shook his head. "Let's go. Next, I'm afraid I'll have to trouble you, Little White, to help restrain them."

"A piece of cake!"

... At the same time.

Twenty miles west of Xiao Huang Village, three Ghost Kings were waiting anxiously.

At this moment, their Qi was already somewhat weak, feeling as if someone was forcibly holding their last breath, and they would die before long.

"When will they arrive?" one of the Ghost Kings muttered anxiously.

"Soon. That guy said they set off last night and will be here shortly."

Another Ghost King replied, but beneath his calm eyes, there was also anxiety.

Just then, the last Ghost King suddenly said, "Don't worry, they're here!"

As soon as he finished speaking, three black lights rapidly approached from the distance.

Soon, the figures within the three black lights were revealed. The leader was none other than an acquaintance of Chu Yuan.

Night Mantis!

"Where is that brat?"

Night Mantis asked with a chilling voice. He had waited too long for this day.

If it wasn't for that brat, how could his woman have died?

And how could he have fallen into the hands of that old woman, allowing her to torment him?

Therefore, when he learned last night that the brat had returned, Night Mantis immediately rushed over with his people.

Although that old woman told them to try not to go out during this time, he figured that with two great Spirit Venerable Realm experts protecting him, nothing could possibly go wrong.

One of the Ghost Kings quickly stepped forward and said through gritted teeth, "Lord Ye, that brat is right in that village."

"That's right! He's been wandering around the vicinity for the past two days, trying to find the people who destroyed the village."

"If it weren't for a sixth-rank expert protecting him, we would have captured him and delivered him to Lord Ye long ago."

The three spoke through gritted teeth, but their hatred was directed more toward Night Mantis.

If it weren't for this bastard, why would they have endured such torment?

Why would they have suffered this calamity?

"Bang! Bang! Bang!"

Just then, one of the Ghost Venerables suddenly struck, and the three Ghost Kings instantly exploded.

Ghost Qi diffused, their Souls shattered, and they were swallowed whole by him.

"Gui Hun, what are you doing?" Night Mantis was stunned and asked with a frown.

Gui Hun frowned. "Night Mantis, are you blind? These three were strange. Hurry up and leave!"

With that, he grabbed Night Mantis, intending to leave.

Night Mantis suddenly broke free from his grasp. "What do you mean? What was strange about them?"

At this point, Ghost Response also frowned and said, "Night Mantis, they were indeed strange. They carried a deep hatred, seemingly directed at you."

"Hate me?"

Night Mantis was startled. He had been consumed by his own hatred just now and truly hadn't noticed anything unusual.

Now, reminded by the two, he realized something was amiss.

"It's a trap! Take me away quickly!"

Night Mantis reacted and shouted immediately.

But just then, a cold voice suddenly rang out.

"Leaving? Where are you going?"

As the voice faded, two figures appeared before the three of them.

"It really is you!"

When Night Mantis saw Chu Yuan, his eyes instantly turned red, and his hatred was visible to the naked eye.

It was truly a case of enemies meeting and seeing red.

Chu Yuan glanced at him, then looked at the two people behind him.

He quickly locked onto the presence of Ghost Response, and couldn't help but chuckle, "Wonderful, everyone is here."

Ghost Response and the other man, however, had their gazes suddenly fixed, looking at Purple Rhyme in disbelief.

"Venerable Purple Rhyme, didn't you die?"

Purple Rhyme smiled. "Thanks to you two, I haven't died yet. I've merely changed masters."

The two were utterly shocked.

"Impossible! Ghost Granny said your enslavement rune was destroyed."

"When an enslavement rune is destroyed, either the person dies, or another enslavement rune enters the body and cancels it out."

"But no matter which one it is, you should definitely be dead!"

The two were startled. Who could tell them what exactly was going on?

At this moment, Night Mantis suddenly said, "Ghost Response, there is only one Ghost Venerable on the other side. You two stop her, and I'll go kill that brat."

Before he finished speaking, he had already charged out.

"Don't go~"

Ghost Response and the other man wanted to stop him, but Purple Rhyme appeared before them and said with a smile:

"Gentlemen, just watch the show, don't move recklessly!"

Ghost Response's expression hardened. "Purple Rhyme, no matter how you managed this, you should know that he is currently Ghost Granny's most favored male companion."

"If something happens to him, can you withstand Ghost Granny's wrath?"

Hearing this, Purple Rhyme shook her head and chuckled, "Don't worry about that. You can barely protect yourselves."

"Where does your confidence come from?" Gui Hun asked, his brows tightly furrowed.

This time, before Purple Rhyme could answer, a voice suddenly rang out above their heads.

"Her confidence? It's right here with me!"

The two were startled and quickly looked up, only to see two faint lights flash. They were horrified to discover that their cultivation had been Sealed.

"God... God Realm Expert!"

The two were terrified, looking fearfully at Bai Zhi, who was perched on Purple Rhyme's shoulder.

They never expected that the white fox held by that young man was actually a God Realm Expert.

It could be said that the difference between the God Realm and the Venerable Realm was that of heaven and earth.

Only a God Realm Expert could render them completely powerless.

This time, they were probably finished!

Ghost Response cautiously said, "Demon God, is there some misunderstanding about this matter? Why would you help that Human Race member?"

"No misunderstanding at all."

Little White chuckled, "I came specifically to help him. And you seem to be the one who destroyed his village. You can look forward to what happens next."

As soon as this was said, Ghost Response's eyes suddenly widened, and his gaze shot toward Night Mantis.

"Bang!"

Just as he looked over, he saw Night Mantis flying back extremely fast like a cannonball, smashing heavily right in front of them.

"Pfft!"

Night Mantis violently spat out a mouthful of black blood, looking at Chu Yuan with horror in his eyes.

"Impossible!"

"Back then, I was only in the Ghost King Realm and was injured, yet you couldn't defeat me."

"Now I am a sixth-rank Ghost Emperor, how could you possibly be stronger than me?"

Chu Yuan walked over step by step and said coldly, "There are many things you can't imagine. Today, I will avenge the people of my Xiao Huang Village."

"Night Mantis, you deserve ten thousand deaths!"

As his voice fell, a crimson flame coiled around the light-chasing sword in his hand.

Immediately after, the light-chasing sword fiercely stabbed toward Night Mantis's chest.

Night Mantis's expression changed drastically. He dodged frantically, not forgetting to roar at Ghost Response and the other man:
