Chapter 459: Mountain Collapse, Corpses Everywhere

Sheng Xiao asked, “Did you give it to him?”

“The battle is imminent. After Prime Emperor Zhengyang recovers, we will have a higher chance of winning.” The decisive battle at the Broken Cliff will be a life or death battle. They needed Prime Emperor Zhengyang’s help.

“Yes.” Sheng Xiao continued, “The Yin family is holding a funeral for the deceased people tonight. I have to go there. I’ll get going first.”

When Sheng Xiao reached the door of the study, he suddenly realized that there was a spiritual wall in front of him. The spiritual wall blocked his way. Sheng Xiao turned to look at Sheng Lingfeng, who was behind the desk. He was puzzled. “Father? What are you doing?”

Sheng Lingfeng looked up at him and suddenly said, “That child called Kong Qing is a super monster, right?”

Sheng Xiao’s eyes widened. “Father, why do you ask?”

Sheng Lingfeng took out a pack of cigarettes from the drawer. He tore open the membrane and took out two cigarettes. Sheng Lingfeng lit his own cigarette and threw the other cigarette to Sheng Xiao.

Sheng Xiao wasn’t addicted to cigarettes. He would only smoke one when he was annoyed.

He held the cigarette under his nose and sniffed it before biting it. He lit it and took a light puff before walking to the windowsill.

Sheng Xiao listened to Sheng Lingfeng in silence.

Sheng Lingfeng said, “Lin Jiansheng isn’t the kind of person who would have an affair with a woman. If he really wanted to do it, illegitimate children would have been everywhere. He went to the Broken Cliff to enter seclusion and came back with a child. That child has a huge appetite, but he hasn’t grown taller in the past six months…”

This was very suspicious.

Sheng Lingfeng exhaled a mouthful of smoke. He held the cigarette between his fingers and looked at Sheng Xiao. “That child came from the Broken Cliff. He’s not human, right?”

Sheng Xiao blinked. His curly eyelashes fluttered as he blinked.

He didn’t say anything. He took a deep puff of the cigarette and blew it out the open window. A butterfly on the peach tree danced and left him. Sheng Xiao stared at the butterfly that was running away in panic. He heard Sheng Lingfeng ask, “That child is that super monster, right?”

Sheng Xiao closed his eyes.

Old fox.

No wonder his mother always said that his father was a sly old fox. Sheng Xiao didn’t answer the question directly. He turned to look at Sheng Lingfeng and suddenly said, “Father, you have the answer in your heart, but you still gave the Ice Crystal Thread away. Do you want that child to die?”

Sheng Lingfeng emphasized, “That’s not a child. It’s a demon.”

Sheng Xiao retorted, “My mother isn’t a human, but a demon too.”

Sheng Lingfeng narrowed his eyes and asked Sheng Xiao unhappily, “Are you condemning me?”

Sheng Xiao said nothing.

Sheng Lingfeng suddenly smiled again. He pressed the unfinished cigarette into the ashtray and lowered his head. “When Caro Xiangfu came to see me today, he mentioned something.”

Sheng Xiao asked, “What is it?”

“He said, It’s a pity that Saint Ling Xiao went to Broken Cliff to enter seclusion. Otherwise, with his ability, he would definitely be able to get rid of that Demon Fetus easily. However, Saint Ling Xiao dotes on that child of his a lot. He takes him away wherever he goes and he doesn’t even go to school. Those who know will say that he dotes on the child. Those who don’t know will think that his child is a dangerous creature that will cause trouble if he isn’t by his side.”

The corners of Sheng Lingfeng’s mouth twitched. “These are his words.”

Sheng Xiao’s expression finally changed. “Is Caro Xiangfu suspecting Kong Qing?”

“Yes. That child has never grown tall or chubby. How can he not be suspicious? However, Caro Xiangfu clearly has a suspect, but he didn’t tell his ancestor about this. It can be seen that he and Prime Emperor Zhengyang aren’t on good terms.”

After saying that, Sheng Lingfeng waved at Sheng Xiao. “Get lost. Your mother should rest.”

Sheng Xiao glanced at the dark green snake on Sheng Lingfeng’s wrist. The corners of his mouth twitched as he walked away.

Sheng Lingfeng coughed and said unhappily, “Rude kid, why didn’t you say goodbye to your mother before you left?”

Sheng Xiao stopped and said to the little snake, “Mom, I’ll get going first.”

Sheng Lingfeng pressed the little snake’s head with a finger and nodded. Then, he imitated Lan Yao’s tone. “Get lost. I’m annoyed with you.”

Sheng Xiao smiled and left.

Caro Xiangfu quickly gathered all the materials needed to forge the Demon Nurturing Bead and prepared three sets before handing them to Grantling.

Grantling spent two days in the small building and damaged two sets of raw materials before she successfully forged the Demon Nurturing Pearl. With a tired expression, she opened the door and handed the trained Demon Nurturing Pearl to Caro Xiangfu, who was waiting outside.

“When the super demonic creature appears, the Demon Nurturing Bead will release black grievous energy. Let the Prime Emperor carry this Demon Nurturing Bead with him. As long as the super demonic creature gets close to him, he will be able to sense it within five miles of him.”

“Alright, thank you, Saint Grantling.”

Caro Xiangfu asked someone to serve Grantling while he held the jade box containing the bead with both hands and walked towards Prime Emperor Zhengyang’s house next door.

There was only a small garden between the two small buildings. It usually only took Caro Xiangfu half a minute to pass through this garden. However, today, he shuttled through the winding path in the garden for a few minutes, but he could only see the house and couldn’t walk out of the garden.

Caro Xiangfu realized that she had walked into someone else’s barrier.

How powerful was someone to be able to silently set up a barrier beside Prime Emperor Zhengyang?

Caro Xiangfu felt a chill down his spine.

Oh no. Before his ancestor died from childbirth, he would die first.

Caro Xiangfu subconsciously wanted to touch his stomach, but when he lowered his head, he realized that the Demon Nurturing Bead in the jade box was actually releasing black grievous energy!

That super demon was nearby!

Caro Xiangfu’s heart skipped a beat. He braced himself and shouted, “Sir?”

At this moment, waves of rich grievous energy spread in the garden. Soon, the sun above Caro Xiangfu’s head was completely enveloped by grievous energy. Caro Xiangfu was surrounded by grievous energy, and he couldn’t see his fingers. This made him panic.

Light footsteps came from the thick fog.

Caro Xiangfu heard a commotion and looked up to see a shadow.

The figure was very short and looked like a child in his early teens. When he saw the figure of the super demonic creature, Caro Xiangfu’s gaze flickered. This child’s appearance looked very similar to the child called Kong Qing!

Could his guess be right? Was Kong Qing really a super demonic creature that grew in the Broken Cliff?

The demonic creature finally walked in front of Caro Xiangfu. He raised his head and smiled at Caro Xiangfu. He said softly, “Old fatty, let’s make a deal, okay?”

Caro Xiangfu was speechless.

Old fatty my *ss!

Staring at Kong Qing’s face, which was similar to Lin Jiansheng’s, he sighed. “…It’s indeed you.”

Caro Xiangfu didn’t expect his suspicions to be true.

Kong Qing smiled and said, “Are you very surprised? Didn’t you suspect my identity long ago? Didn’t you deliberately wait here for me to find you?” Caro Xiangfu had long suspected Kong Qing’s identity. He deliberately revealed his suspicion to Sheng Lingfeng but didn’t tell his ancestor. He was sending a message to Kong Qing through Sheng Lingfeng.

He was telling Kong Qing—

He knew that he was a super demonic creature, but he didn’t tell the ancestor about this because he wanted to cooperate with him.

Kong Qing’s body suddenly disappeared bit by bit, and he turned into a huge black fog.

The black fog completely enveloped Caro Xiangfu. In the black fog, Kong Qing’s voice sounded again. “Caro Xiangfu, you want to use me to kill your ancestor, right?”

Hearing this, Caro Xiangfu, whose face was filled with fear a second ago, suddenly calmed down.

There was no longer any panic on his face.

Caro Xiangfu smiled mysteriously and asked, “Then, I wonder if you are willing to cooperate with me?”

“Heh!” Kong Qing transformed back into a human child. He sat on Caro Xiangfu’s shoulder and hugged Caro Xiangfu’s fat head with both hands.

Kong Qing laid on Caro Xiangfu’s head and said, “I know why you hate Caro Zhengyang so much. It’s because you discovered his secret.”

Caro Xiangfu’s expression didn’t change as he pretended to be calm and asked, “Oh yeah? What secret?”

Kong Qing suddenly changed the topic and said, “Do you think I don’t know the real reason why you spent so much money to build an island in the Divine Sea and led your entire clan to relocate?”

Caro Xiangfu asked, “Oh yeah? What do you think it is?”

Kong Qing’s voice entered his mind through Caro Xiangfu’s ears. He said, “Because too many wronged souls are buried under Caro Clan’s former residence! There are so many that you don’t even dare to live in that old residence.”

The smile on Caro Xiangfu’s face gradually disappeared.

Kong Qing continued, “The reason why your ancestor was able to become a Prime Emperor was because he was a demonic cultivator. He relied killing thousands of Beast Tamers to break through to the Prime Emperor cultivation level! You were afraid that Prime Emperor Zhengyang’s secret would be discovered by others, afraid that the reputation of the Caro Clan would be ruined, and even more afraid that the Caro Clan would become a sinner! Therefore, you wanted to cooperate with me and kill Caro Zhengyang!”

“Am I right?”

When he heard this, the muscles on Caro Xiangfu’s fat face twitched. “How, how did you know?!”

“If you don’t want others to know, don’t do it!”

Kong Qing laughed loudly, and his voice became more and more distant. The mist surrounding Caro Xiangfu also instantly dissipated.

Caro Xiangfu stood in the garden and looked up to see the sun.

At this moment, he suddenly saw a slightly plump youth running towards him with a pale face.

“Father!” Caro Xianle stopped in front of Caro Buddha. He wiped his cold sweat and said anxiously, “It rained heavily in the Imperial Dragon City for five consecutive days. A mudslide collapsed on the mountain where our old residence is.”

Caro Xianle took a deep breath and continued, “What’s scary is that after the mountain collapsed, thousands of beheaded skeletons appeared under the old residence! After receiving the news, the prince personally led his troops to the Imperial Dragon City. The other families also rushed over after hearing the news to investigate the identities of those beheaded skeletons!”

“Dad, why are there so many skeletons hidden under our old residence?!”

When he heard this, Caro Xiangfu’s legs went weak and he sat on the ground.

“It’s over!”

“It’s over!”
