Chapter 44 A Meeting in the Rain

Zhu Zining led the experts of the Reincarnation Division, swarming towards them. Ye Yang suddenly stopped beneath the execution post in the center of the Wind Formation, bit the tip of his tongue, and spat a mouthful of blood on the face of the corpse on the post.

The corpse's eyes snapped open as it was stained with blood.

The might of an ancient god descended.

Within the formation, eight winds rose, and endless wind spirals contracted towards the center from all directions.

Ye Yang cupped his fist towards the corpse on the pillar and said, "I, using the nine coffins, request passage. Please grant me this favor."

Had Ye Yang gone mad?

He was actually trying to befriend a corpse?

As I looked at Ye Yang in shock, the corpse actually gave Ye Yang face. It slowly turned half a circle outward along with the stone pillar behind it, revealing a hidden door on the side of the execution platform.

"Go!" Without even an explanation, Ye Yang leaped into the door.

When I followed Ye Yang through the door and into the tunnel, I saw a burial palace: "What is this place?"

Ye Yang took two steps forward and said, "The real Misty Rain Tower underground palace."

"The Feng Shui Master who built the Misty Rain Tower back then was actually hiding this underground palace, waiting for someone to come and open it."

I looked at Ye Yang: "You even know the skills of a Feng Shui Master?"

Ye Yang shook his head: "Ye Qianyang and the Emperor were sworn brothers, and the Eight Guards of Hou Tu (Earth) were subordinates of the Emperor. They would all show respect to Ye Qianyang."

"Although Ye Qianyang is gone, I still carry his aura. Apart from the Feng Shui Master, only I can enter here."

As Ye Yang walked forward slowly, a misty rain rose in the underground palace, and a woman wearing a wedding dress and holding an oiled paper umbrella appeared in the rain.

"Arena!"

I waved my hand to stop Wang Tu Fu and the others, and took two steps forward myself: "Are you Arena?"

The woman, with her back to us, slowly turned around, but shielded her face with the umbrella. From my angle, I could only see the other party's chin. Just that jawline alone was so exquisite. How stunning would her full appearance be?

The woman stood in the distance, without a word.

I waved slightly to Wang Xiaohuan: "Release the lantern! Release the lantern containing Hou Qing You Xin’s (Hou Qing's Letter of Trust) information!"

Wang Xiaohuan exclaimed, "Are you crazy? What if…"

Wang Tu Fu said in a deep voice, "Listen to Li Po, release the lantern!"

Wang Xiaohuan readily pushed out the white lantern, and the lit human skin lantern slowly flew towards the other party. When it reached a distance of two or three meters from the woman, it stopped as if hesitating.

The light flickered, floating up and down in the air, refusing to take another half step forward.

The woman smiled faintly: "Hou Qing You Xin? Have you ever had any credibility?"

"You've returned, haven't you?"

"After so many years, you've still returned!"

"Still unwilling to come and see me?"

"Misty Rain Tower! Haha..."

"You built the Misty Rain Tower, were you waiting for me?"

"Back then, many people died because of you."

"You have no guilt at all, and you're living so comfortably?"

"Hou Qing You Xin!"

The woman slowly raised her hand, and the white lantern floating in the air seemed to be attracted by some force, suddenly crashing into her palm.

I clearly saw a palm with all the fingernails peeled off, grabbing the white lantern. Her five fingers suddenly contracted inward, crushing the white lantern to pieces.

The lantern fire scattered and shot in the misty rain, and the twisted and deformed human skin lantern also fell to the ground.

My eyes narrowed slightly: "You guys retreat and guard the entrance."

I stood in front of the team with my hands behind my back: "Zhu Zining, now is the time for you and me to show our cards."

"After playing this game for so long, it's time for you and me to reveal our hands, isn't it?"

Zhu Zining's voice came from outside as expected: "The Two Worlds Hall's Wolf King lives up to his reputation. He understood the key to this game from the very beginning. I'm very curious, how will you break this game next?"

I said lightly: "That girl over there, regardless of whether you are Arena or not, let's not make any moves first."

"The person you're waiting for hasn't come. If we really fight, and he comes, I'm afraid neither of us will be able to clean up."

The woman holding the umbrella said in a trembling voice: "You know Hou Qing You Xin?"

I said in a deep voice: "Hou Qing You Xin will be able to come and find me soon. If you want to do anything, you have to meet him first, right?"

The woman said: "I'll give you one incense stick's worth of time. During this time, as long as you don't leave the tomb and don't make a move first, I won't do anything to you."

Wang Tu Fu said: "What are you talking about? I don't understand?"

I said in a deep voice: "This tomb is Zhu Zining's real killer move. Everything before was her plan."

"In fact, from the moment she entered the tomb, she knew where we were hiding?"

"She kept sending people up to die just to get us into this tomb as soon as possible."

"We just fell into her trap."

"Ye Yang just said: Only he and the Feng Shui Master can enter this tomb."

"Zhu Zining is either with the Gou Chen lineage, or with the Feng Shui Master who smuggled over from the Yellow Springs."

The Feng Shui Master's Four Guards: Huanglong (Yellow Dragon), Qilin (Kirin), Tengshe (Soaring Serpent), Gou Chen (Gou Chen Star).

Huanglong Xiang Kai, Qilin Yan Junyi, and Tengshe Bu Youming are sworn brothers, but the Gou Chen lineage has never appeared. Therefore, what Zhu Zining holds in her hands can only be Gou Chen.

I raised my voice: "Zhu Zining, your plan, are you going to tell it, or am I?"

Zhu Zining smiled: "Of course, I'll tell my own plan."
