Chapter 487: The Death of Wu Chou

Wu Chou had already ceased his struggle with Mysterious Bone when the Heaven Mending Pill was taken by Wan Tianming’s nascent soul.

He wasn’t a fool; he clearly sensed that Mysterious Bone was far stronger than him, not by a little but by a great margin. Moreover, Mysterious Bone seemed to have extensive knowledge of the profound yin great technique.

Every cultivation technique attack Wu Chou launched was effortlessly countered, as if the opponent was expending no effort at all.

This shocked Wu Chou greatly.

But now, with two Heavenly Capital demonic corpses by his side, Wu Chou was naturally pleased. Each demonic corpse was at least as strong as a mid foundation formation cultivator. With two suddenly appearing, no matter how powerful Mysterious Bone was, he couldn’t be their match.

He intended to take this opportunity to thoroughly teach his opponent a lesson.

So, after several old fiends left the high platform one by one, Wu Chou immediately sneered and cast a mocking glance at Mysterious Bone.

Mysterious Bone looked toward the exit at the foot of the stone steps, then turned back to meet Wu Chou’s sinister gaze and the two demonic corpses behind him. Suddenly, his calm face broke into a smile.

“Han Li, this man is the sole descendant of Extreme Yin, isn’t he? If I kill him, Extreme Yin will surely suffer for a while, won’t it?” He turned his face and said this to Han Li.

Han Li was momentarily stunned but quickly regained his composure and simply looked at Mysterious Bone indifferently, not responding to the words.

But Wu Chou, overhearing this, immediately became alert, staring at Han Li with suspicion.

At the same time, the two demonic corpses beside Wu Chou suddenly vanished after flashing past, as if following an unspoken command.

“Han Li, you colluded with this man all along? No wonder that Jade Ruyi Scepter was struck into your hands! Now hand over the treasure and let the clan patriarch decide its ownership!” Wu Chou said sharply, his eyes shifting as he accused Han Li.

Hearing these words of slander and attempted robbery, Han Li was speechless inside.

It was obvious this guy no longer saw any use in him and thus had no scruples anymore. Perhaps this move was secretly ordered by Extreme Yin before leaving.

Thinking of this, Han Li’s mouth twitched, and the flying swords inside his body leapt in anticipation.

But just then, Mysterious Bone made the first move.

He raised his hand, and a blue strange snake suddenly flew out from his sleeve and lunged fiercely into an empty area.

A dull thud followed as a green shadow staggered into view — it was a Heavenly Capital demonic corpse.

“Heavenly Capital demonic corpse? It’s surprising Extreme Yin could refine so many!” Mysterious Bone sneered disdainfully.

Yet without hesitation, he formed a spell formation with both hands. The green snake quickly coiled several times around the demonic corpse, then Mysterious Bone lightly tapped it with a finger. A blooming green lotus appeared on the corpse, its petals swelling wildly, wrapping the entire demonic corpse within.

Wu Chou was shocked. He hurriedly activated a spell formation to break the corpse free, but for some unknown reason, the lotus completely severed the mental link between the corpse and him. It could no longer be controlled.

Cold sweat broke out all over Wu Chou’s body. As he prepared to command the other corpse, Mysterious Bone flashed forward and appeared right in front of him.

Wu Chou’s face twisted in anger and panic. He quickly unleashed a large amount of profound yin demonic energy to protect his body. A fierce expression crossed his face as he opened his mouth, and a black flying sword shot at Mysterious Bone’s face like lightning.

The attack was swift and fierce!

Mysterious Bone’s face carried a hint of mockery. His ten fingers suddenly sharpened and grew several inches of emerald nails, looking terrifying.

Without hesitation, he grabbed with one hand, and the black flying sword automatically flew into his ghost claw, powerless to resist.
