The Anarchic Consort Novel - Chapter 761
Chapter 761: How Shameless
The work here had not begun, yet it was already over on the other side.
This quote was just right to describe the Ni family.
At first, they were preparing to show off their exorcism skills after the corpse bugs swept past.
Neither the disciples of Ni family nor Ni Biao himself could ever imagine the terrifying scene that had occurred just now!
Ni Hu even stood still and mumbled to himself, “This is impossible! How can this be possible?”
Even Old Li was stunned himself. Although he had lived half his lifetime robbing many tombs, he had never seen someone who could use a single phrase, ‘Get lost!’ to get rid of the corpse bugs. It was indeed remarkable!
Baili Jia Jue did not feel anything wrong as he walked toward Helian Wei Wei. His pair of slender hands were not contaminated by a tiny bit of dust. The exquisite and elegant piped edge along his sleeves and collar served as a foil to his tall and upright posture.
Compared to Baili Jia Jue’s elegant posture, Ni Hu’s action just now was not even up to scratch.
It would be fine if he stayed silent. After his mumbling, the exorcists from other teams all turned around and looked at him with obvious sarcasm in their glance.
The words by Ni Hu before the corpse bugs awakened were still vivid in their minds.
He relied on his sister who was the reincarnated Phoenix Girl and looked down upon everyone by saying, “My sister is knowledgeable but keeps a low profile. Unlike some other people here, who only know a little but keep showing off. Perhaps they are only good at talking but would be scared to death later when we really face a situation. Just like these corpse bugs, maybe some people are still having a headache, thinking of how to get rid of them.”
Consequently, the one who was only good at talking but was scared to death turned out to be him.
After this incident, the other exorcists had seen Ni Hu’s true color. Regardless of what he was going to say later, no one would hardly put their trust in him anymore. All of them looked at him with disdain.
Ni Hu opened his mouth but kept his words back to himself.
He also realized his situation right now and felt rather awkward due to embarrassment for a moment.
Ni Biao’s eyes clouded over in the extreme.
Obviously, Baili Jia Jue’s capability was stronger than he expected.
If they failed to get rid of Zhuge Yun’s team anytime soon, it would be troublesome to divide the Sarira when they obtained it.
It seems like I have no choice but to use some tricks.
Then, Ni Biao moved his eyes and gave a hint to his assistant who was skulking in the other team. That assistant immediately understood his meaning and nodded slightly.
But even so, the image of the Ni Family had still been ruined in front of all the exorcists. On the other hand, Zhuge family amazed those exorcists for several times and rendered them speechless in astonishment.
Thinking about it carefully, Zhuge Yun did nothing much.
In comparison, the two so-called amateurs in exorcism, one was master in ancient tombs while another had great capabilities.
When these two people grouped together, it was indeed like a match made in heaven!
“Young Master Yun, where did you find such excellent masters from? Are they bounty exorcists? Isn’t that expensive?”
Listening to people questioning in admiration, Zhuge Yun was more or less speechless. He scrubbed his head and was too shy to answer because even until now, he only knew the names of his benefactors. Other than that, he did not even know where they came from…
Baili Jia Jue’s performance not only attracted the exorcists and made them cheerful, but had also attracted Ni Feng’s attention.
In fact, she had already noticed this man at the very beginning.
She had seen many exorcists but she had never seen anyone like him who was handsome and powerful enough to impress others.
Thinking of this, Ni Feng’s face which was covered under the white silk turned red.
If she could be in the same team with this man, for sure she could find the Sarira faster.
Unfortunately, he was not in the team of Ni Family.
However, it was fine, when the time came, she would spare his life.
For the rest, she would take the lives of all that were supposed to die, especially the one who always stood next to Baili Jia Jue and showed off his knowledge!
“Alright, now there are four paths, we are going to choose one of them. Which one do you all think is the best?” Old Li turned around and asked the exorcists behind him.
The exorcists had no idea as they stared at one another and could not come to a consensus.
Zhuge Yun thought that it would be most secure to get the answer from the one who stood next to him when they faced this kind of trouble. He then lowered his voice and asked, “Brother Wei, which path do you think is the best?”
“South,” Helian Wei Wei replied firmly in a very soft voice. The other exorcists definitely could not hear their conversations except those who were standing very close to them.
Zhuge Yun could not understand the reason behind it. “Why?” The others had a hard time making sense of their decision, yet why was she so sure?
Helian Wei Wei looked unconcerned. “The reason is simple. It is just simple reasoning. The place with so many corpse bugs must be the attendant tomb with the most corpses basically the servant girls. In places like this, the main coffin would not be placed here. Think about this, no king would be willing to place himself in a crowd. The coffins and corpses closest to him would be at most one or two. Thus, it would not be the East Gate.”
“How about the West and North Gate? Why not them?” Zhuge Yun was interested to know more about the other reasonings after listening to Helian Wei Wei’s reply.
Helian Wei Wei pointed her finger at the place where the two exorcists were killed. “This spot is the nearest to the West Gate. When we were looking at the statue, only the West Gate is a blind spot in vision. It is highly possible that the two disciples of the Ni family escaped from here after they became moving corpses. It’s the gate that dead people entered, how can people who are still alive walk in? For the North Gate, according to Feng Shui, no one would like to face the North after death. You should know this as an exorcist yourself.”
Zhuge Yun was speechless and depressed. Feng Shui really had the rule that ‘North is unlucky and not suitable to place the coffin’ but he had long forgotten about this simple common sense.
Moreover, in such a situation, Brother Wei could even think of Feng Shui; he had to admit that he truly admired Brother Wei!
The main point was any ordinary person would not be able to consider every detail completely, not to mention noticing the blind spot in vision!
Even he would like to ask himself where he could call for these two masters! They were absolutely awesome!
While Zhuge Yun was in excitement, Eldest Young Lady Ni who stood a few steps behind him suddenly spoke in a comfortably soft and gentle voice, “South Gate is the best.”
Zhuge Yun was shocked!
He immediately turned his head over and laid his eyes on Ni Feng!
Although I’m unwilling to admit it, this Eldest Young Lady Ni is really something.
Zhuge Yun silently thought to himself. As he was about to express his respect and admire for Ni Feng, he heard Old Li asking the reason behind it.
Ni Feng let out a few coughs, appearing as though she had mulled over the issue before voicing out her opinion, “Because the area with lots of corpse bugs would surely have an abundance of corpses…”
