"I died to protect Yue'er. Yue'er protected the lowly family members in the city lord's palace and sacrificed his soul to set up the Yin-catching array..."
"When I woke up again, this place was already like this. Baiyue City sank into the ground, and only the backyard of the city lord's mansion was left, because the formation set up by Yue'er was still on the ground!"
"I don't know how I became the Corpse King and survived, but I did survive. Even if I don't practice, I will slowly advance every day while lying down, and I have cultivated to the current Corpse King..."
"I can go out of the Yin-catching array set up by Yue'er, but I don't want to go out. With my current strength, I can go out to take revenge, but I can't kill all the enemies. I can't do it alone!"
"I wanted to go out for revenge, but I didn't want to leave Yue'er, so I was very torn. I told myself that if one day, among the people who join the battle, there is someone who understands Yue'er, I will wake up, so from then on
I fell into a deep sleep..."
"Until those words you said in the air woke me up..." Corpse Emperor Bai Mu looked at Mo Jiuli and said.
"Senior Yue has been dead for a long time, right?" Mo Jiuli asked with a frown.
"Well, it's been a long, long time, probably tens of thousands of years!" Bai Mu thought for a while and said.
"The other party knows the importance of the inheritance of formations, so they find excuses to ask us to hand over our souls..."
"Because since Baiyue City was built, even after it later developed into a medium-sized city, it has been very stable and nothing happened. That's why Yue'er and I were careless and gave the other party a chance to besiege the city..."
"To be precise, those people are greedy for Yue'er's soul, because Yue'er is an array master. In Shengwujie, the most lacking array master is, especially outside Zhongzhou, there are still some array masters in Zhongzhou!"
"Even if Yue'er and I were willing to hand over our souls for the hundreds of thousands of people in the city, the other party had no intention of letting go of the people in Baiyue City. Otherwise, the other party would not besiege the city and not let anyone leave Baiyue City..." Corpse Emperor Bai Mu calmly said
said.
"Yue'er accidentally received a formation inheritance when she was a child. When Bai Yue City was established, Yue'er's formations were already at a very high level. Bai Yue City was able to develop so quickly because of the formation master Yue'er in Bai Yue City!"
"However, in other places outside of Zhongzhou, formation masters are extremely rare. The appearance of one formation master is simply a great joy. Even low-level formation masters are rare animals and will be immediately recruited by many big families...
…”
"But, is there any difference between your soul and Senior Yue's?" Mo Jiuli asked in confusion.
Mo Jiuli didn't know what to say when he heard this!
I have also done things like killing people and seizing treasures, and I understand that in this world, the strong are respected!
But this was the first time that Mo Jiuli heard about the massacre of a city just for the inheritance of a mere formation!
Even if he hadn't seen Bai Mu's eyes, which didn't look like he was lying, Mo Jiuli wouldn't be able to believe that this was true!
"Senior, does the other party really have no other reason for slaughtering the city?" Mo Jiuli asked looking at the Corpse Emperor Bai Mu.
Hearing this, Corpse Emperor Bai Mu looked at Mo Jiuli for a long time, and finally sighed softly: "Little girl, you are very similar to Yue'er. At first, even I thought that the other party besieged the city because of Yue'er's formation inheritance. I
It’s just an excuse for the other party to completely kill me and Yue’er, so he asked us to hand over our souls!”
