Chen Jiuyang never expected to see Wu Shuang'er again under these circumstances.
He remained silent for a long time, then asked, "Miss Wu, are you a human or a ghost now?"
Wu Shuang'er's face was pale, almost deathly white. She offered a stiff, unnatural smile and said, "That doesn't matter."
"I know you are here to refine the 'Zhou' Dao power."
Chen Jiuyang's expression changed drastically.
The Wu Shuang'er he had seen before was an ordinary person.
If he hadn't possessed the inheritance of 'Zhuang Wu,' he wouldn't have known that the origin Dao here was 'Zhou,' nor would he know how Wu Shuang'er had found out.
Seeing Chen Jiuyang's confusion, Wu Shuang'er continued, "There's no need to be puzzled. The me you see now is not my true self."
Chen Jiuyang pondered for a long time and asked, "Who exactly are you?"
Wu Shuang'er blinked her eyes, remaining silent, only looking at him.
Chen Jiuyang's heart sank. "The guide for the final chess game?"
Wu Shuang'er slowly nodded.
If Chen Jiuyang still couldn't guess that she was the guide for the final chess game, he would truly be an idiot.
'Zhuang Wu' had intentionally guided the origin Dao towards Wu Shuang'er, and 'Wu Lai' from 'Wu' had told him to find the guide. Later, he met 'Wu Shang' through Wu Shuang'er, and at that time, he had already harbored suspicions.
Wu Shuang'er smiled faintly and said, "In your perception, we haven't seen each other for a long time. In my perception, we just met, and now we've met again. Brother Chen, do you understand what I mean?"
Chen Jiuyang asked in a deep voice, "The spatial-temporal turbulence of the final chess game?"
Wu Shuang'er blinked her eyes, not answering directly. "Soon, you will also participate in the final chess game. Brother Chen, you must watch me carefully."
Chen Jiuyang's heart suddenly trembled. Wu Shuang'er was the guide for the final chess game, which meant she bore the traces of the past eight transcendents.
Chen Jiuyang suddenly asked, "Do we truly have karma?"
If everything was prearranged, then he and Wu Shuang'er had no karma at all.
Wu Shuang'er remained silent. After a moment, she spoke, "Time is up, Brother Chen. You must be careful."
The moment her voice fell, the 'Zhou' that Chen Jiuyang had perceived as still having some time was rapidly exchanged and descended upon the Wu Shuang'er before him. Wu Shuang'er's appearance also began to rapidly transform into that of an unfamiliar beautiful woman.
She spoke, "My lord, I am getting married today. Will you not offer me a few blessings?"
A Dao power, filled with malice, hatred, and terror, descended like a tangible entity, seeming to want to erode and distort Chen Jiuyang.
This was the Dao power of 'Zhou'!
Chen Jiuyang's body immediately began to grow tumors and pustules. He felt as if his Qianyang Dao body was about to be destroyed, and his destiny itself was about to be rewritten!
His primordial Dao was on the verge of collapse. It seemed he was not walking the path of the Human Emperor, nor was he the favored one of the era of the end of Dharma!
Everything was cursed, seemingly on the verge of change!
Chen Jiuyang immediately said in a deep voice, "Erode Dao Without Trace!"
As the words fell, he grabbed the beautiful woman's arm.
"Rumble!!!"
The majestic 'Zhou' Dao power surged into Chen Jiuyang's body like a vast ocean.
"Wuwuwu~"
Outside the ghost sedan, chaos erupted.
"Ah!!!"
"Roar!!!"
The strange beings that crawled out of the coffins began to grow pustules and horns on their bodies, their physical forms mutating as if cursed.
"God, save us!"
"I wish the gods eternal life!"
The sudden drastic change before their eyes caused Zhang Gen and Shou Nu's skin to crawl.
The boundless darkness seemed to be receding, no! It wasn't receding, but something more terrifying than boundless darkness was about to descend! And it carried anger!
Everyone's hair stood on end, and their bodies began to tremble!
The candles in their hands burned faster, as if they were about to be extinguished at any moment.
"Something's wrong!"
Inside the ghost sedan, Chen Jiuyang was absorbing and refining the 'Zhou' Dao power, and he also felt the terrifying changes happening outside.
"Chaos!"
Chen Jiuyang spoke in a deep voice, and a vast, inexplicable, and strange power of law instantly appeared.
Outside the ghost sedan.
"Huh?" Shou Nu and Zhang Gen saw the candles in their hands begin to grow back, and the power of the candles seemed to offer no resistance to this terrifying darkness, but rather to devour them all.
"Quick, throw them away..." The burial garment on Zhang Gen's body began to burn, and his face contorted in horror.
"Something's wrong, something's wrong!!!" Shou Nu gritted his teeth and threw away the candle in his hand. The strange beings around him also began to change.
"Ah ah ah ah!!!"
"Hahahahaha!!!"
Bitter laughter from the strange beings echoed:
"God, I curse you to die a terrible death!"
"God, may you be cursed generation after generation and never find peace!"
The scene before them caused everyone's faces to change drastically.
They saw these strange beings, crying and laughing, cursing, and crawling back into the coffins.
Such a scene made everyone's scalp tingle; it was too bizarre.
What on earth had happened!
"The groom is wearing a cuckold's hat~" a sinister, sharp, ghostly voice joyfully rang out.
"Damn it! What the hell is going on?" This sudden change left these highly intelligent Interpol officers completely bewildered.
"No!" Zhang Gen's face turned deathly pale, and he said in a deep voice, "The power of the strange beings is eroding us, it's not over yet!"
The burial garment on his body was still burning.
"I know!" Shou Nu gritted his teeth, his hands and feet turning stiff and pale. His life source was being rapidly devoured by some inexplicable strange being.
Seeing these strange beings unharmed and their inexplicable actions, he suddenly blurted out, "The groom is wearing a cuckold's hat, and the child in the bride's belly is mine!"
The next moment.
The inexplicable strange being that was eroding Shou Nu began to retreat, and his life source began to return. His face lit up with joy. "Quick, curse this groom with me!"
"Groom, you impotent fool, you can't even get it up. On your wedding night, let me take you to bed!" Zhang Gen gritted his teeth and cursed as Shou Nu advised.
Afterward, the burial garment on his body stopped burning and returned to normal. His eyes lit up with joy. "It works! Keep cursing!"
Then, the two of them continued to spew vile words, cursing the groom who had yet to arrive.
The others were stunned for a moment, then joined in the cursing, and thus, the entire strange village was filled with a cacophony of curses.
Inside the ghost sedan.
The majestic Dao power continued to surge into Chen Jiuyang's body, illuminating Chen Jiuyang's star map!
Just as Chen Jiuyang thought it was working and he could continue refining the Dao power of 'Chaos'.
"Hmm?"
He felt the 'Zhou' Dao power within his body rapidly recovering, no, not recovering, but retreating from his body back to the beautiful woman.
Chen Jiuyang's face changed drastically in horror. Pustules began to grow on his body again, and he quickly said in a deep voice:
"Forget!"
A voice as vast as heavenly might instantly echoed throughout the village.
Everyone at that moment froze in place, as if they had forgotten something.
Then, the Dao power of 'Zhou' began to pour into Chen Jiuyang's body again.
