Xiang Li's aim was obvious: once he drank the Blood Tea, he could give orders directly to the Monkey-Blood People and make them stop attacking the Soul Masters.
Judging by the situation, Xiang Li would soon be able to drink the Blood Tea and bring the Monkey-Blood People under control.
But Ji Feng had gone to all that trouble to infiltrate their Xiang Family Pill Shop for more than a few pills or some money, and certainly not just to have the Monkey-Blood People wreak a little havoc.
He wanted to do something big. He could do it himself, but it would be better to enlist someone else's help.
Sitting atop the warehouse, Ji Feng took a bone-handled scimitar out of Twenty-Four Bridges Bright Moon Night. A thick reek of blood washed over him, and he heard Bone Spirit's voice.
"What do you want me for? You have so many women. You don't need me. I'm telling you, don't come looking for me next time you need something. Just go to that dear little sister of yours."
"There are some positions my little sister can't manage. Only you can."
"Then what do you want? I'm telling you, I'm not doing anything unless there's something to eat."
Ji Feng said, "There's plenty to eat, but I need you to do something first. How many bones do you have left?"
"My bones?" Bone Spirit chuckled. "What do you want my bones for? I have plenty."
"How many?"
"Enough. Are you going to kill people? How many?"
Ji Feng calculated from memory. "A hundred or so?"
"That many? You mean you want to kill everyone here?"
"What do you mean, kill?" Ji Feng replied. "I'm just getting them some bones to nourish them."
"Where?"
"Right here in this pill shop."
"Fine, I'll do it. But you have to let me eat all the bones here. You can't give them to anyone else."
"Sure. Just leave the loudest one alive. My little sister's already claimed him. You can have everyone else."
"Deal," Bone Spirit said.
Ji Feng plunged the Bone Spirit Scimitar into the warehouse roof. Instantly, brilliant blood-red light erupted, and a blood magic array enveloped the entire Xiang Family Pill Shop.
Crack, crack, crack, crack, crack, crack, crack!
A frenzied dragon of white bones rose from the magic array. In the blink of an eye, the entire Xiang Family Pill Shop was submerged in an ocean of bones.
The frenzied dragon rampaged, relentlessly battering the buildings of the Xiang Family Pill Shop into heaps of shattered tiles.
Ji Feng discovered that Bone Spirit's power had grown even stronger after being refined by the Dragon Core.
Was he surprised?
Ji Feng had no time for surprise. He had other things to do.
White bones swept across the entire Xiang Family Pill Shop, sometimes forming a frenzied dragon, sometimes forming waves that crashed into the Xiang Family's buildings one after another.
The eldest young master, Xiang Li, lost his composure. He rushed out of the house and shouted in the courtyard, "What the fuck are you all standing around for? Hurry up and deal with these bones!
"I'm always telling you to cultivate more! What the hell have you been doing? You two, come inside with me and move everything out. Take the Gold Soul Coins first, then the antiques, calligraphy, and paintings."
Xiang Li carried a chest of Gold Soul Coins in one hand as he left the house. Behind him, two Soul Masters each carried two chests of rare metals.
Xiang Li was about to call others over to collect the calligraphy and paintings when a mountain of white bones swept into the house.
The Soul Masters dared not enter and fled toward the back gate instead.
Xiang Li roared, "What a fucking bunch of useless trash! Get the valuable pills first!"
He was about to rush to the warehouse himself to retrieve the pills.
Then he saw the Monkey-Blood People charging into the rear courtyard in neat ranks.
How did the Monkey-Blood People get in? Where was Feng Sijun, the guard captain?
Feng Sijun had fled.
It was not that the guard captain was disloyal. He was only an ordinary person, too.
These bones were so uncanny, as though alive. Who would not be afraid?
More and more bones appeared, and the waves they formed rose higher and higher. Sometimes they even formed two frenzied dragons that constantly swept their tails through the surrounding buildings.
Over half the Soul Masters in the pill shop had been killed or wounded. The moment anyone died, the tide of bones swept them away without a trace.
The two Soul Ancestor guards hastily urged him, "Young Master Xiang Li, hurry! If we don't leave now, we'll all die here."
These two Soul Masters were not among the twelve members of that night's watch.
They had been sleeping comfortably in their beds. Who could have expected such a disaster to strike out of nowhere?
Xiang Li gritted his teeth and charged toward the back gate carrying two chests of Gold Soul Coins.
The two Soul Ancestors and the Fifth Concubine followed close behind. The Fifth Concubine ran more slowly and barely kept up, the peaks on her chest bouncing incessantly and noticeably slowing her down.
Near the back gate, the bones grew even denser, winding around Xiang Li's legs and slowing his movements.
Xiang Li circulated his soul power and tried to force his way free, nearly falling over.
His innate soul power had only been rank five, and his martial soul was an ordinary red sparrow.
In terms of combat strength, his martial soul could not compare with those of the Soul Master guards.
On top of that, he usually neglected cultivation and cared only about fooling around with women, leaving his soul power cultivation pitifully weak.
Although drugs had pushed him up to the level of a Soul King, some powerful Soul Ancestors could very likely thrash him in an actual fight.
A Soul Master guard stepped forward to steady him. "Young Master, hurry, this way. I'll hold them off."
Xiang Li quickly followed this guard, infuriating the two Soul Master guards behind him.
When had this fellow shown up? What a shameless bastard! They were almost out of danger, and now he came along to steal the credit?
They had risked their lives fighting those bones inside the shop. Where had he run off to?
The two Soul Masters immediately caught up. Once through the back gate, they discovered that Xiang Li had suddenly vanished.
This was bad! That man was a fraud! He was only wearing a guard's clothes. He might not be a guard at all!
"Young Master!"
The two Soul Ancestors shouted as they charged toward the spot where Xiang Li had disappeared.
Suddenly, everything before them went pitch-black.
Boom! The Blood Gate closed.
The Soul Master guard who had just helped Xiang Li escape was Ji Feng.
Ji Feng had changed into a guard's clothes in the cellar and had kept them on ever since.
Already panicking and frightened by the bones, Xiang Li had failed to notice that the Soul Master guard before him was actually a stranger.
Just like that, Ji Feng led Xiang Li into the Undead Demiplane, with the two Soul Master guards following right behind.
Xiang Li looked around and shouted, "What is this place? What is this place?"
The two Soul Masters sensed Ji Feng's presence but could not pinpoint his location yet. They cursed, "You turtle-spawn bastard! What kind of illusion is this? Get the hell out here, and I promise I'll give you a quick, clean death!"
Ji Feng sighed mournfully. "What's going on? I made it perfectly clear to Bone Spirit that I only wanted Xiang Li. How did I end up with two side dishes as well? Now I've broken my word. I wonder if she'll lose her temper. Oh, forget it. I'll just call it an extra meal for my little sister."
Ji Feng swore to heaven that he had only intended to drag Xiang Li inside. He had not expected these two Soul Master guards to be so loyal that they would charge into the Undead Demiplane after him.
Hearing Ji Feng's voice, the two Soul Master guards located him and rushed over to fight him to the death.
But could they beat Ji Feng?
On the Douluo Continent, Ji Feng already possessed the strength of a Soul King in his normal state.
That was to say nothing of the Undead Demiplane, where Electrolux's Holy Light magic power could suppress enemy Soul Masters. And there was also the Dragon Corpse's help.
