Old Hand at Eating
391
Backstage.
The other bearded men gathered together.
Watching Shen Yan's actions at the front desk.
Silverbeard scratched the little silver hair on his head and said with some regret, "I didn't expect that Purplebeard would get his revenge so easily... I was thinking of going out to lend him a hand."
Shi Jiu leaned against Jiang Fu's chest.
I'm currently editing the footage from Fangcai 'Yun Yi live stream.
The Authorities show of force is more about flexing muscles than actually securing territory.
This is proof that the Redbeard devil and the Yellowbeard devil were not present!
Tonight.
The most severely affected were those of the Lingyue Pavilion, which was now covered in wounds.
The Baili Family is undoubtedly the best.
After the Baili Family, those few descendants who had activated special Sequences and possessed exceptional talent arrived in Jiangcheng.
The original plan was to wait until the Fog Forbidden Zone was fully opened.
They then entered to seek opportunities.
Result.
Tonight, we were almost wiped out by Ling Chu.
It took several Heavenly Being from the Baili Family working together to save one of them from Ling Chu's insane clenched teeth!
And afterwards.
Once he regained consciousness, Ling Chu insisted that he knew nothing.
It was all Redbeard and Yellowbeard's doing...
At this time.
Ling Chu has been imprisoned.
The Baili Family was filled with rage.
However, the situation in Jiangcheng is currently chaotic.
The Baili Family and the Ling Family have officially formed an alliance.
We had no choice but to prioritize the bigger picture, grit our teeth, and believe it for the time being.
But they didn't even have time to believe it for long.
Yun Yi, ostensibly about catching ghosts, was actually a turf grab.
It was shoved right into my face.
Shi Jiu created various live stream clips.
Although not a single word was mentioned about the Baili Family or the Ling Family.
It also made no mention of Ling Chu, who had slaughtered the Baili Family to the point of utter chaos.
But it felt like a series of resounding slaps in the face.
It struck the Baili Family's face hard.
It was still last night, inside the building where a group of Heavenly Beings had gathered.
However, there were noticeably fewer people here at this time.
Qing Juechen held his phone in his hand, looking at Baili Changkong, the Heavenly Being of the Baili Family, sitting beside him.
Unable to resist asking, "Hey, you don't really believe that Ling Chu is possessed by a ghost, which is why he came to your Baili Family's territory to eat people, do you...?"
Baili Changkong's face was gloomy.
He glared fiercely at Qing Juechen, but said nothing.
Qing Juechen blinked, "What kind of look is that!"
"My eldest nephew has gone missing, his fate unknown. It's suspected he was poisoned by Ling Chu!"
We're all victims, okay?
"It's just victims sharing their experiences..."
The Qing Family and the Ling Family are also allies.
So Qing Juechen is also sitting here.
Inside the room.
Besides Ling Ye, Sikong Yi, Sikong Mei, Qing Juechen, Baili Changkong, there are also the Heavenly Being from the Mo Family and the Huyan family.
These major forces have already banded together in Jiangcheng.
... Of course, the Lingyue Pavilion did not get involved.
At this time.
Qing Juechen leaned closer to Baili Changkong and continued, "When Ling Chu planned to capture my nephew, Redbeard and Yellowbeard hadn't become ghosts yet..."
Baili Changkong sat in the chair with a stern, expressionless face.
Unmoved.
On the large screen in the room.
The Auction is being broadcast live.
Last night.
They didn't hear or see the second half of the video.
It suddenly entered their ears.
In particular.
Ling Chu's clear and articulate words echoed throughout the room with unparalleled clarity.
Ling Chu plans to kill and devour all the geniuses who have come to Jiangcheng!
Then, they shifted the blame to the Bearded Pirate Group!
And tonight.
Ling Chu did indeed do that.
Using the Ghost of the Pirate Redbeard and Pirate Yellowbeard.
Kill and devour the genius of the Baili Family!
At this very moment.
Inside this room.
Everyone saw it...
Wisps of white smoke rose from the pale hair in the Baili Changkong.
Qing Juechen asked in astonishment, "Old man Baili, are you so angry you're practically fuming?"
Boom--
The next moment.
The specially made table in front of them instantly turned into dust.
Baili Changkong's gaze fell fiercely on Ling Ye.
Ling Ye opened his mouth, about to say something.
Baili Changkong stood up and said in an icy tone, "The alliance between the Baili Family and the Ling Family shall be suspended for now."
"I need to investigate some things."
Immediately.
He glanced again at the Heavenly Beings of the Mo Family and Huyan Families.
"Today it's our Baili Family, next time... it might be your turn."
Baili Changkong's words had barely faded.
That's what you hear in the live stream.
Shen Yan's somewhat meaningful voice rang out.
"Gentlemen, we, the Bearded Pirate Group, may be Pirates, but we dare to take responsibility for our actions."
"The people and items to be auctioned tonight are all on the list."
"If it's not on the list, it's really not available."
"Why don't you go ask the third young master of the Ling Family..."
"Maybe he knows where it is."
Upon hearing these words...
The two Heavenly Beings from the Mo Family Huyan Family instantly fixed their gazes on Ling Ye.
These past two days.
Their family also lost a lot of people.
They were even kidnapped by the Bearded Pirate Group in full view of everyone.
But.
These people, however, did not appear on the Auction list.
I initially thought it was that band of Bearded Pirates, planning to hold several more Auctions...
Now it seems...
That's probably not the case.
Bearded Pirates?
Put on a wig and a fake beard.
Who knows who's who!
Qing Juechen quickly stood up, agreeing, "It should have been done a long time ago!"
"Old Man Mo, Old Man Huyan... I think Old Man Baili makes a lot of sense."
"The alliance between my Qing Family and the Ling Family will also be suspended for now."
"We'll talk about it after we find my nephew."
"By the way, let's put the engagement between our two families on hold for now."
As they were talking.
Then he left with Baili Changkong.
Qing Juechen is a peerless genius of the Qing Family, not an elder of the family.
He did not manage to gain entry into the Qing Family's decision-making level.
Therefore, he could not easily make decisions on behalf of the Qing Family before this.
Now that Baili Changkong has taken the lead, Qing Juechen feels no burden whatsoever.
"But was that fleeting glimpse of the Greenbeard yesterday really not my nephew...?"
They saw Qing Juechen and Baili Changkong leave.
The Mo Family Huyan Family's Heavenly Beings, whose expressions were equally grim, could no longer remain seated.
"Two people."
At this moment, Sikong Yi spoke up, "The Bearded Pirate Group are treacherous and cunning; we must not fall for their divisive tactics..."
The Mo Family Heavenly Being looked at Sikong Yi.
"You were also present at Yun Yi's the Authorities stream."
"What you saw was truly the Ghosts of Redbeard and Yellowbeard."
"Were those two Ghosts truly reduced to ashes under the great formation?"
Sikong Yi opened his mouth.
At that time, the Lingyue Pavilion Martial Artist included Xin Musen and Xing Bin.
Everyone believes it's haunted.
The Ghosts of Redbeard and Yellowbeard.
He was then directly Yun Yi using the Six Harmonies Kill-Defying Heaven Formation.
And at that time.
Ling Chu was still shouting that Redbeard and Yellowbeard were cannibalizing people on the Baili Family's territory.
Although it's a ghost.
But surely it's not like it can create clones of itself.
Moreover...
The ghosts on the other side of the Lingyue Pavilion were in full view of everyone.
Even the Authorities special live stream footage publicly broadcast the two ghostly figures.
And the ghost that Ling Chu saw...
But only he himself can see it!
At this very moment.
Ling Chu and the others felt a disgusting sensation, as if they had swallowed a fly.
Redbeard and Yellowbeard.
It's clearly Jiang Fu and Shi Jiu!
They're ghosts!
If only I had known, I would have revealed their identities sooner...
Unexpectedly, they turned the tables on us!
It was still in the Authorities Livestream.
As for the Authorities Livestream...
That's even more disgusting.
They're using the guise of ghost hunting to seize territory!
"That good-for-nothing, all-encompassing idiot, couldn't he just hold back and eat a little more?!"
Ling Chu was so angry that she screamed.
The alliance that the Ling Family had painstakingly assembled.
It was all because of a certain personality's momentary craving and loss of control.
And thus, it was declared to have collapsed.
The next moment.
Ling Chu's expression changed, and he let out a gloating sound.
"Don't talk like you don't want to eat. Aren't you the one who eats people?"
"Let me out! Let me out!"
"This time I won't use the Ling Family's name. I'll be all alone, and I'll eat whoever comes my way... Hehe!"
"That's what Old Foodie should do!"
