Chapter 1143 - 908: This and That, Aren’t They All Mine!
Upon hearing this, Shi Hu immediately perked up, "Daoist friend, look at my current state, how could I cause trouble?
I’m just lying in the array, barely surviving and waiting for rescue. What do you mean by someone coming in? Are we really saved?"
"It can’t be ruled out that the strangeness has gathered too much, triggering the defense mechanism, which transmitted the two of us back and forth until we were randomly transported close to each other just now." Sang Lishan was also uncertain and asked, "What is the background of the benefactor you speak of? His name, and realm?"
Faced with a series of questions, Shi Hu awkwardly scratched his ear and shook his head, "He seemed to have told me his surname, but I forgot. As for his realm..."
Thinking back, he couldn’t recall, so he chuckled sheepishly, "I only know he fights fiercely, but I don’t know the exact realm. But you should have heard of the Wo Hu Temple Immortal Peach incident, right?
Thousands of cultivators were saved from disaster all thanks to him secretly rescuing us! He also freed me from years of suppression and seal, his strength is definitely extraordinary!"
The other party’s expression became increasingly complex, "So, that Daoist friend saved your life. But from the time of the Wo Hu Temple Immortal Peach incident, to when you met Jun Yan, to being trapped in this Ghost Realm.
Judging by the time, you neither repaid your benefactor nor stayed by his side to do anything for him. You don’t even know his name or circumstances. In that case, doing something lowly like trespassing in a place with an owner aligns with your rude behavior."
Sneaking into the "Secret Realm" hoping to find some rare herbs, unexpectedly got trapped in the Ghost Realm, and unintentionally encountered the lord who sealed the Ghost Realm.
Now being despised by the other party, Shi Hu’s face turned red, "I have left a summoning mark for my benefactor. If he needs me, I can repay him at any time!"
Facing imminent doom, Sang Lishan no longer held back towards the culprit, sarcastically saying, "With you being trapped here, repay him? You’re likely still relying on that mark to seek help from your benefactor this time.
You speak of using it for repaying a kindness, but only bother him to rescue you again when you need it.
Moreover, you are a thief, troubling your benefactor to save you and yet being disgraced by your actions. Counting it all up, you owe him more than just two lives!"
Shamed by the repeated rebukes, Shi Hu was at a loss for words to rebut, defiantly turning his head, "Hmph! No need to deal with you!"
The strangeness sealed on the other side of a transparent barrier saw them arguing and started provoking more eagerly, "Daoist Hu, you haven’t done anything wrong yet are treated so harshly, I can’t bear to watch. Come, smash this place with a palm, I’ll help you seek justice!"
"Yeah, yeah, look at how injured you are, and he doesn’t even help heal you, instead speaking coldly to you, so abominable."
"Join us, and your wounds will be healed immediately. Then, let him take us out of this ghost place, and we’ll enjoy endless freedom in the vast world outside!"
Shi Hu moved his paw back a little, casting them a sidelong glance, "Pah! I’m not stupid. Previously tearing the array was to escape, and I was careful not to let you monsters out.
Save your energy; I’d rather die here than ally with you. Another word from you, and when my benefactor arrives, he’ll crush you all!"
The strangeness did not get angry, instead chuckling, "You ungrateful little tiger, soon you’ll end up like that rabbit spirit, gradually losing spiritual power and getting more exhausted until you can’t resist becoming one of us.
Little tiger, why do you cultivate? Isn’t it for immortality and eternal freedom? Joining us now grants you eternal life, how is that different from ascension?"
"The difference is too great." Jiang Yuan, racing towards them, feared they might fall for the strangeness’s temptation, and loudly interjected, "Righteous cultivators achieve ascension to immortality, to kill filth like you.
You were originally a cultivator, but after being corrupted, your thoughts twisted, losing your original intention, and now you want to drag others into the abyss. When I find some time, I’ll slice you all to pieces, so you can’t deceive others anymore."
Hearing the familiar voice, Shi Hu and Sang Lishan turned back simultaneously, exclaiming in surprise:
"Benefactor?! You really came!"
"Daoist You?! How are you here?"
Seeing the two of them indeed in one place, Jiang Yuan felt quite pleased.
Moments ago, he had used a targeted teleport to Sang Lishan’s location, only to find it empty after arriving, but coincidentally this time, the two points of light were very close together, so he figured he could bring them out at once.
In the Ghost Realm, the air itself was a source of contamination, so sword flight was impossible.
Fortunately, now with both ice wings and fire wings, his flying speed was not slow at all, hurrying over, finding the two chatting away.
Though it seemed the conversation wasn’t going very well.
It’s understandable, who would be happy to see a thief in their home? Moreover, Sang Lishan nearly died cleaning up this mess for the thief, his health bar nearly empty, and still restrained himself from beating Shi Hu, truly having self-control.
