249: Level eight diamond corpse!

The Old Man's expression froze, his face turned ashen, he raised his hand, half-clenched his fingers, and inhaled the yin energy forcefully.

"Ah! Wh- what's happening?" The servant was uncontrollably pulled towards the Old Man, who tightly gripped his neck.

"Say what you just said again!" the Old Man roared.

"Your grandson was... was cut in half by someone..." The servant was quite honest and repeated it exactly as it was.

"Impossible! Don't spout nonsense here! How could a mere human break my grandson's Vajra Corpse body?" The Old Man didn't believe it, and with a sudden flick of his arm, he threw the servant away.

Like a cannonball, he flew dozens of meters, crashing heavily against the courtyard wall, which cracked and indented into a pit.

Even if the servant had said Liu Xiaojie was killed by a top-grade spirit artifact, the Old Man wouldn't have been this angry.

He felt the servant was underestimating and deliberately belittling the Vajra Corpse race.

A human cutting a level six Vajra Corpse in half with one strike? What kind of joke is that!

"..." Seeing this, Wei Yan remained silent.

He wouldn't offend Liu Fu, who was a level eight Vajra Corpse, for the sake of a servant.

He glanced at the Bride Ghost standing beside him and asked, "Besides the Gourd you mentioned, do those few people have any other top-grade spirit artifacts?"

"Probably not, at least I didn't see any," the Bride Ghost shook her head.

In her heart, she really hoped what the servant said was true.

It would be better if that guy died.

The Bride Ghost didn't want to marry him at all. Just thinking about sleeping on the same bed with Liu Xiaojie and seeing that idiotic face every morning made her shiver and feel extremely repulsed.

Even with the Bride Ghost's willful nature, she could only keep such thoughts to herself.

She knew that if she spoke them aloud, the Old Man in front of her would certainly not be any more polite to her than he was to the servant.

That look of furious rage, even when seen by the Bride Ghost, couldn't help but instill fear in her heart.

It was far heavier and more oppressive than the ghost energy released by Liu Xiaojie's level six Vajra Corpse before.

Returning to the matter of Liu Xiaojie's death itself, even if he truly perished, in the Bride Ghost's opinion, it wouldn't affect the overall situation.

Rather, after his death, the benefits outweighed the drawbacks.

This would force Liu Fu to use his full strength and cooperate with the Wei Family to defeat the external enemy together.

Anyway, from beginning to end, the Bride Ghost had never expected Liu Xiaojie to be useful.

"Old Liu, calm down, calm down. I think there must be some misunderstanding here. Perhaps the Ligui (fierce ghost) who defected to those humans knows some kind of enchantment technique, causing him to hallucinate and say such foolish things," Wei Yan offered his opinion.

"Reasonable," Liu Fu agreed with Wei Yan.

However, he still planned to go and confirm it himself; otherwise, his ghost heart would be uneasy.

Out of respect for Wei Yan, he decided not to bother with the servant anymore.

As he lifted his foot to step forward, his movement suddenly froze.

This was because he saw Chen Ming, Qin Hongyue, and Yin Qianqian walking in through the courtyard gate.

Seeing them appear safely before him, Liu Fu's bad premonition began to intensify.

Wei Yan's expression also turned ugly.

The servant's words, which they had previously considered untrustworthy, were now rapidly gaining credibility!

"Master, those two guys have reached the Ghost King level!" Yin Qianqian said softly.

Even reaching the Ghost King level, they were still within the suppression range of the Ghost Devouring Gourd, and Chen Ming had no reason to fear them.

Even if a Ghost Emperor came, it would only exceed the standard of the Ghost Devouring Gourd, nothing more.

It was far from being able to contend with Chen Ming, not to mention that Qin Hongyue was a formidable obstacle before him.

A mere Ghost Emperor wanting to cross that was pure fantasy.

"After refining those two into yin pills, how confident are you in advancing to Ghost King?" This was what Chen Ming truly cared about.

"Ten percent confidence," Yin Qianqian said confidently.

"Alright, don't be shy, eat freely, and don't worry about offending anyone. We'll back you up," Chen Ming promised.

"Yes, Master," Chen Ming's words made Yin Qianqian feel exceptionally secure.

At this moment, even if the sky fell, there was nothing to fear.

"What have you done to my grandson!" Liu Fu questioned with strong anger in his voice.

"Your grandson? Do you mean that big guy just now?" Yin Qianqian deliberately played coy, asking.

"Yes!" Liu Fu said with heavy emphasis.

"He has been refined into a yin pill by me and completely absorbed. Your grandfather-grandson relationship in this life is over. If you truly want to reunite with him, I don't mind sending you on your way," Yin Qianqian stated the truth.

"You bastard, you're courting death!" Liu Fu's ghost energy suddenly became violent around him.

As a Vajra Corpse like his grandson Liu Xiaojie, his transformation state was completely different.

One's body surged, while the other's body surface seemed to have countless worms crawling out, wriggling, and condensing into a porous, dark green hard shell resembling a sponge.

It covered his entire body, including his facial features.

It was as if he was wearing a sealed, bizarrely styled armor.

On his head, black and white ghost energy floated, resembling hair.

"I want you dead!" Liu Fu spread his arms, leaned his body forward, and let out a battle roar.

Black, fog-like ghost energy rolled towards them.

If ordinary little ghosts were engulfed by it, they would likely die instantly!

"Level eight Vajra Corpse!" Seeing Liu Fu go all out, Wei Yan, who was standing nearby, couldn't sit still.

This was the first time he had seen a true level eight Vajra Corpse, and even as a Ghost King himself, his heart couldn't help but tremble violently.

He knew that even if he entered his peak state, he would likely not be Liu Fu's opponent, a four-six split.

It was even infinitely close to three-seven, with him at three and Liu Fu at seven.

He smiled faintly, feeling that he probably didn't need to intervene in this matter.

Liu Fu alone was enough to handle it.

Instead, he was worried that Chen Ming, Qin Hongyue, and Yin Qianqian were too weak and wouldn't be a challenge for Liu Fu, which would be disheartening.

Then he would have to spar with him himself.

Just thinking about it made him frown.

'Is this a level eight Vajra Corpse...'

The Bride Ghost stood rooted to the spot, her delicate body trembling slightly.

She was surrounded by an intense fear, and this emotion was rapidly filling her heart!

Thinking back to her previous behavior in front of Liu Fu, she suddenly felt very lucky that the Old Man had a good temper and didn't hold it against her.

Otherwise...

Unimaginable!

The Bride Ghost didn't believe she was powerful enough to be an enemy or contend with such a monstrous entity.

Relying on the Wei Family for protection?

The Bride Ghost was worried that if things truly escalated to an unmanageable point, she would likely become a pawn.

Between a daughter and a family, which was more important? The Bride Ghost was a smart ghost; she knew the difference.

"Die!!"

Seeing that his battle roar had no effect on the three, Liu Fu suddenly attacked.
