“Well” Qin Feng’s expression was a bit strange.
“What’s wrong? Do you know him?” Chief Zhou asked with raised eyebrows.
“I don’t know.” Qin Feng shook his head.
It’s my bias. After all, in novels and movies, most of the time, they would use black robes to cover the figure and appearance, either handsome or beautiful.
This guy can’t be said to be ugly, at least he’s impressive.
Looking at the man in the black robe again, his face was already showing signs of dehydration and peeling, along with an abnormal reddish complexion.
It’s evident that his body is enduring the torment of high temperatures.
Qin Feng frowned, activating his unique X-Ray ability. He saw that the strange red energy had spread throughout the man’s body.
With so much red energy, for an ordinary person, they probably would have perished long ago.
“How is it?” Chief Zhou asked.“Not very optimistic.” While speaking, Qin Feng rolled up the fat man’s sleeve and widened his eyes.
The man’s arm was already covered with light red marks, and even the skin was blistering due to the high temperature, looking gruesome!
“This” Everyone showed a shocked expression.
Qin Feng didn’t delay any longer, quickly using his palm to transmit Literature Qi into the fat man’s body.
As the Literature Qi circulated around his body, the light red marks began to fade, and the internal Red Qi slowly disappeared.
Seeing this, everyone finally breathed a sigh of relief.
After a short while, the fire poison in the fat man’s body was removed by Qin Feng.
However, due to the burns on the surface and severe dehydration, the fat man did not wake up immediately.
Qin Feng took out herbs from the Storage Ring, starting to prepare a medicinal paste for treating burns.
After applying it, he had someone bring some clear water, helping the fat man to drink carefully.
The fat man, who had been motionless, regained some consciousness the moment his lips touched the water.
At first, he slowly sipped the water, then took small sips, and finally, he picked up the water bowl and drank it in big gulps.
Until the bowl was empty, the fat man continued to mutter, “Water, I need water!”
Qin Feng stopped him, saying, “Your body has just recovered; it’s not advisable to drink too much water.”
Upon hearing this, the fat man slowly opened his eyes and said, “Did you save me?”
“Yes.”
“Then the White Deer didn’t lie to me. There are people in Jinyang City who can treat the fire poison.” The fat man said gratefully.
White Deer?
Fire poison.
Qin Feng and the others looked at each other, not understanding what he meant.
Chief Zhou asked, “With a black coffin on your back, are you from the Tomb Family?”
“Replying to the Senior, I am Mu Youqian from the Tomb Family.”
“No money?” Qin Feng repeated with a strange expression.
Was this name related to money issues?
Mu Youqian frowned, explaining, “It’s ‘Mu’ as in tomb, ‘You’ as in one’s right-hand, and ‘Qian’ as in a thousand, Mu Youqian!”
“Oh, by the way, where is my Soul-suppressing Coffin?” The fat man suddenly thought of something and looked around. He found the black coffin beside him, surrounded by a gloomy aura, and sighed in relief.
But when he looked out of the window and saw the gray snow falling, he quickly sat up, exclaiming, “Wasn’t the aura in the Soul-suppressing Coffin sealed?”
Chief Zhou shook his head, “I’ve used the strongest sealing method, but even so, I can’t completely prevent the leakage of the aura from the black coffin.”
Mu Youqian’s face turned ugly, “This is bad, this is bad. This is the ash born from the resentment of the Bi fang, containing the fire poison.”
The sky is filled with flying snow, and countless lives may be lost.
But this shouldn’t be the case. The mysterious White Deer clearly said that there are people here who can block the resentment of Bi Fang.”
He thought that the person who could do this should be the Chief of the Demon Slaying Department in the city.
“Bi Fang?!” Si Zheng exclaimed and looked at Zhou Kai.
Qin Feng also widened his eyes. According to the “Records of a Hundred Monsters in The Great Qian,” Bi Fang should be a powerful monster dwelling in the Zhang’e Mountain in the Southern Territory, with strength reaching at least the seventh calamity cycle.
And Zhang’e Mountain is a forbidden land where humans cannot set foot. But what does the resentment born from Bi Fang mean? Qin Feng doesn’t understand.
Si Zheng comforted, “The range covered by this gray snow is only ten miles outside Jinyang City, and those in the city contaminated by this fire poison have already been saved by this young man.”
Mu Youqian, however, did not ease his nervous expression. “It’s useless. Bi Fang’s resentment has just leaked out, so only those who are contaminated with ashes will be infected with the fire poison.
But as time goes on, even the air will burn the heart and lungs, causing death. Since this resentment cannot be concealed, we must evacuate all the people in the city as soon as possible!”
Qin Feng frowned, and the faces of the others also became very unpleasant.
As the Chief of the Demon Slaying Department in Heavenly City, Zhou Kai has experienced many ups and downs.
He said in a deep voice, “First, make the ins and outs of the matter clear. Is the corpse of Bi Fang in the Soul-Sealing Coffin you have?”
When this was said, everyone was shocked.
Bi Fang is infamous in the Southern Territory, and even the Twelve Divine General may not be able to kill it.
But what Chief Zhou meant at this moment was—Bi Fang is dead? Mu Youqian looked at everyone’s eyes and finally sighed, beginning to narrate the course of events.
The monsters and ghosts of The Great Qian Dynasty were rampant, which was well known. But few people knew that after the death of monsters with high-level forces, their bodies would not decay but instead remain.
Some of these monsters’ abilities would only be revealed after death. If not handled properly, they would bring disaster to the world, causing suffering to living beings.
The Mu family has always been responsible for dealing with the bodies and souls of these monsters that would reveal abilities after death.
The ancestors of the Mu family left behind a giant skeleton, the size of which could be described as mountainous.
Even after thousands of years, this skeleton still exudes a terrifying aura.
The Mu family used this skeleton to forge the Soul-Sealing Coffin, containing and refining the bodies and souls of monsters that would reveal abilities after death. This was not only to follow the ancestral teachings to prevent these remnants from harming living beings but also related to their cultivation method.
The Mu family practiced the soul, which is quite similar to the Hundred Ghosts Dao tradition, but their methods focused on the Soul-Sealing Coffin and the refining of the bodies and souls.
In simple terms, it was just a different way of absorbing Yin Qi.
“Half a month ago, my old man at home calculated that the two major monsters in Zhang’e Mountain, Bi Fang and Xie Hui, would have a big battle to break through to the eighth-stage calamity force.
The winner would swallow the remnants of the other’s body and soul, reaching the eighth stage.
The loser would naturally turn into dry bones.”
Zhou Kai’s expression turned serious as he said, “Such situations are not uncommon in The Great Qian, but they usually only occur in demons and ghosts below the sixth transformation calamity.”
“Most demons at the seventh transformation calamity value their lives. Ascending to the seventh transformation is already challenging, and they generally wouldn’t engage in a fierce battle with beings of equal existence for the faint chance of an eighth transformation opportunity.”
Mu Youqian sighed, “When my grandfather first told me about this, I had my doubts as well. However, when we reached Zhang’e Mountain and witnessed the battle between the two mighty beasts, causing the earth to shake and the mountains to tremble, I became a believer.”
