Devouring Their Flesh Alive

"Age-wise, you're my sister—"

The mortal body originally wanted to argue with the divine body, but after seeing this situation, the corner of the mortal body's eye twitched.

The ghost quickly offered a Shelter, preventing the four from being completely annihilated.

After stabilizing the four Yin General, the mortal body rolled its eyes at the divine body. "Hey, don't you have any sense of restraint?"

In response to the mortal's question, the divine body slightly turned its head and curled its lip, saying, "Who would have thought they were so easily defeated!"

To conceal his guilty conscience, the divine body landed directly in front of the four Yin General.

After checking and confirming that the four Yin General did not possess Storage Bag or rings, the divine body then retrieved four Soul-Capturing Pearl -Soul-Capturing Pearl and sealed the four Yin General inside them.

The mortal body glared at the divine body, then performed a backflip to jump off the Pure Scenery Ruyi Saber, kicking it towards the divine body in the process.

He raised his hand and grasped the scabbard of the Pure Scenery Ruyi Saber. After thinking for a moment, his divine body stirred up some frost and snow, and he carefully wiped the hilt of the blade.

The mortal's lips twitched uncontrollably at the sight of the divine body's undisguised behavior, and he couldn't help but ask, "Hey, what are you doing?"

"You stepped on it, let me wipe it!"

The divine body made no attempt to conceal this, as there was no need to.

My feet aren't dirty!

As he spoke, Fan Ti subconsciously lifted the sole of his foot to look at it and confirm.

Even when stepping directly on the ground, there wasn't a speck of dust on the clean soles of their feet.

Although its code name is Mortal Body, as a body refined by the Power of Incense Offerings and possessing the Immortal Dao of the Illuminating Mystery Realm, it is not as easily tainted by dust as ordinary mortal beings.

After running for so long, not only was there no dust, but there wasn't even a drop of sweat.

"It's disgusting." Glancing at the mortal body, the divine body, before the mortal could even complain, retorted, "If I took off my shoes and stomped on the hilt of a knife a few times, then threw it at you, would you wipe it off or not?"

"Holy crap!"

Since it's the same person, these details won't differ.

Since a consensus has been reached on this minor issue, there's no need to dwell on it anymore.

"The enemy has come knocking on our door—although we had the advantage of terrain and information in this battle—but what's next?"

With arms crossed, he looked at the divine body, and the mortal asked a question he already knew the answer to.

"Of course, it's a counterattack." Looking at the mortal body, the divine body said softly, "It's only polite to retaliate. Before, I was just developing and didn't want to attract the attention of the City God, so I didn't start the plan. Since I can't develop properly anymore, I have no choice but to act ahead of time."

"Then I'll leave the rest to you. I'm going to bed."

With a wave of his hand, the mortal body directly opened the Great Gate of Incense and lay down on the bed in the real world.

Although there is more time to rest in this world, in essence, whether as a god or a cultivator in the Illuminating Mystery Stage, both the divine body and the mortal body have transcended the realm of ordinary people and do not need sleep.

So-called sleeping and resting is essentially just relaxing in a more comfortable environment.

Not to mention, the two are essentially the same person.

As long as one party is not truly asleep, it cannot be considered a true rest.

After regaining full consciousness, Yin Yunze couldn't help but rub his temples as he recalled his earlier conversation.

"Now that this busy period is over, I really need to get some rest!"

Before, it was just playful banter, but this time they've started subtly sabotaging themselves. Although it's within a completely safe range, it's still not a good sign.

Yin Yunze felt that she seemed to be racing down the road to a split personality.

With a helpless sigh, Yin Yunze transformed into a stream of light and returned to the Qingnü Temple, then entered the Dao Field.

Lying on the ice throne, Yin Yunze stretched and relaxed while quietly waiting for the person to arrive.

Before long, Yin Yunze saw a figure kneel down in front of him.

"Your Majesty, is there something important that you summoned me back so urgently?"

Looking at the girl in the Pure Fox Robe before him, Yin Yunze raised his hand and delivered the Soul-Capturing Pearl that sealed the Judge Qian, the Two Generals of Punishment, and the Day and Night Wandering Gods to Guo Jing.

"Look inside—"

"Yes!"

Hearing Yin Yunze say that, Guo Jing didn't think much of it and picked up a pill.

The next moment, Guo Jing's eyes widened, her small mouth slightly agape, and she exclaimed in surprise, "This, this is, the Day Wandering God? And, the Night Wandering God? The Two Generals of Punishment? Civil Judge!? Your Majesty, what are you----?"

It's no wonder Guo Jing was shocked; those five Soul-Capturing Pearl contained almost half of the City God's staff.

In Guo Jing's imagination, these five were a very important group of obstacles on the road to dealing with the City God.

Unexpectedly, Yin Yunze easily captured them and sealed them within the Soul-Capturing Pearl without them even noticing.

"Didn't I promise you I'd avenge you? These are the interest I've collected on your behalf."

Yin Yunze naturally wouldn't admit that the other party came to cause trouble and was then outmaneuvered and dealt with by Yin Yunze.

The same thing, viewed from a different perspective, naturally evokes a different feeling.

Moreover, Yin Yunze was not lying.

Regardless of whether those people came to Yin Yunze's door to cause trouble and ended up getting beaten up, just consider Yin Yunze taking care of these guys – isn't that revenge for Guo Jing?

"Thank you so much, Your Majesty!"

In an instant, Guo Jing's gaze towards Yin Yunze became much more devout.

After a moment's thought, Guo Jing bowed his head and pleaded, "Your Majesty, may I be entrusted with the task of managing the Day and Night Wandering Gods patrol spirits?"

"What, do you have a grudge against them?"

Upon hearing this, Yin Yunze realized that Guo Jing was clearly not pleading for them.

As for Guo Jing, this vengeful ghost, she would kill anyone, whether it was the Civil Judge's team or the Martial Judge's team, without hesitation.

After all, expecting a vengeful ghost to distinguish whether some of its enemies were not worthy of being killed is truly asking too much of a powerful spirit.

Guo Jing's apparent normalcy is merely a suppressed, seemingly conscious madness.

"Yes!" Guo Jing nodded upon hearing this, "The Day Wandering God was the one who, after the City God discovered my wife's beauty, searched for my family's accomplices. And the Night Wandering God spirit is the one who steals my wife's soul every night!"

"So, he's the City God's number one accomplice!"

Yin Yunze understood and nodded, saying, "Actually, it's not just these Day and Night Wandering Gods; these five are all for you—food. The first thing I did when I called you here was to have you eat them!"

This is also why Yin Yunze didn't directly kill these people.

It was, after all, the soul of a god, which served as nourishment for Guo Jing.

Unlike Yin Yunze, who only needs to absorb the Heaven and Earth Spiritual Qi to cultivate, Guo Jing also needs to absorb Yin Qi for balance.

Yin Yunze has over a hundred villages to use as batteries to recharge himself, but Guo Jing doesn't have such convenient resources.

Although it might seem wasteful to be too serious about it, Yin Yunze felt that this investment was still necessary.

After all, the presence of these people's souls would be a hidden danger.

Although it can also be used as a material for weapon crafting----

However, Yin Yunze didn't have any suitable materials. He couldn't just pluck the tail hairs again, or he'd really go bald!

Secondly, Yin Yunze's weapon-refining method was entirely based on his own exploration, and he was still incomplete in his understanding.

Having a concrete idea was good, as Yin Yunze could still get a general idea with the help of the omnipotent Power of Incense Offerings.

But now that we have no ideas, these few Yin General of little use; we can't exactly use them to refine the Myriad Soul Banner.

That would truly make him an evil god.

Therefore, instead of thinking about how to make the most of resources, it's better to take a step back and just let them be useful.

Moreover, compared to weapon forging which has a success rate, feeding it to Guo Jing would at least increase his strength in no time.

Next, when facing the City God, our side will be able to increase its combat strength even further.

"Eat them----?"

Guo Jing was taken aback when she heard Yin Yunze's words.

After all, as a scholar, the most ruthless method Guo Jing could think of was to beat them until their souls were scattered.

Eating them would indeed be challenging Guo Jing's bottom line under normal circumstances.

Yin Yunze was aware of this, after all, Yin Yunze only dared to let others do it, she herself would absolutely refuse.

Seeing the hesitation on Guo Jing's face, Yin Yunze thought for a moment and then provoked her, saying, "Didn't you once say that you wished you could devour the flesh and blood of your enemies? What, now that I'm offering it to you, you're hesitant?"

Think about your wife—only by consuming them will you have the right to seek revenge against the City God! Otherwise, you'll end up like before, unable even to reach the City God's presence—"

Although Guo Jing's emotions had stabilized considerably after being refined into the Pure Fox Robe.

However, under Yin Yunze's provocation, Guo Jing's eyes suddenly turned completely black.

I'll eat it!

Reaching out, Guo Jing grabbed the nearest Soul-Capturing Pearl and pulled it inside, only to find it was the Night Wandering God, whom Guo Jing hated most, which he had grabbed by the neck and dragged out.

I don't know whether this was unintentional or a subconscious choice.

"Who are you----"

Upon seeing Guo Jing, a woman he didn't recognize at all, the Night Wandering God was immediately puzzled.

Upon discovering that it was the Night Wandering God, Guo Jing truly couldn't hold back any longer.

Grabbing the Night Wandering God's shoulders, Guo Jing opened her mouth and bit down on his Night Wandering God.

With a clenched silver tooth and a forceful tear, Guo Jing ripped a large chunk off the Night Wandering God's soul from its neck.

However, since it was not a living being, accompanied by the Night Wandering God's shrill screams, the large piece of soul that had been torn off was directly transformed into a ball of Yin Qi energy, which was absorbed into Guo Jing's body.

Instantly, Guo Jing felt completely refreshed, and the power within her body visibly increased significantly.

If that first bite was just because I was holding my breath, then after that bite, things took a whole different turn.

Aroused by the vengeful spirit's instinctive greed to devour other ghosts, Guo Jing's gaze toward the Night Wandering God also carried a hint of appetite.

"Please, spare me—"

Faced with Guo Jing's gaze, which seemed to regard him as food, the Night Wandering God struggled to kneel down and began to beg Guo Jing for mercy.

Upon seeing the Night Wandering God's plea for mercy, the darkness in Guo Jing's eyes suddenly lessened considerably.

"You begged for mercy, didn't you? Heh heh heh heh." Guo Jing chuckled softly, a hint of desolation in his eyes. "Back then, my wife must have begged for mercy too, right? But did you agree?"

"Your wife?" Looking at Guo Jing's youthful appearance, the Night Wandering God was taken aback and asked, "Who is your wife?"

"Who is my wife? Hehe----" Guo Jing chuckled again, then leaned close to Night Wandering God's ear. "I'll tell you!"

Just as the Night Wandering God was about to listen intently, Guo Jing tore off one of his ears.

Seeing the Night Wandering God screaming in agony while covering his ears, Guo Jing sneered and absorbed that part of the soul into his body as Yin Qi.

The fact that the Night Wandering God could ask that question clearly shows he has done similar things countless times for the City God.

If these are just isolated cases, even if the Night Wandering God guesses a few more names, he could still figure it out.

The fact that we need to ask a counter-question to confirm this only means that this Night Wandering God has committed countless evil deeds.

Having realized this, Guo Jing felt no mercy whatsoever.

However, she finally realized that it wouldn't look good to force herself on Yin Yunze like that.

After Guo Jing apologized, he flicked his Pure Fox Robe, covering the Night Wandering God, and then lowered his head to bury himself inside the robe as well.

Then, with the constant rise and fall of the Pure Fox Robe, there were a series of shrill screams.

Until a certain moment, even the sound disappeared, leaving only silent undulations.

Finally, even these fluctuations disappeared, and when the Pure Fox Robe was unfolded again, only Guo Jing remained.
