Chapter 173 Xian Yufei

As expected of an old wealthy family in Europe, giving money seemed tacky, so Qin Peilan directly gave a set of collectible diamond jewelry, the kind that is priceless.

Gu Qingyin raised her eyebrows slightly and accepted it with a smile.

If it weren't for her, Kang Kang's position as the heir would definitely be in jeopardy, and it's hard to say whether he would still be alive. Any high reward would not be too much. Besides, it was given willingly by others.

That night, Gu Qingyin let Huo Xingchen take the jewelry back home. The reason she used to persuade her son to leave first was simple and crude.

"Go back first and help me cash in the stuff. You can't keep all of it. I'll go back later. I want to visit the city where your father walked when he was young."

Huo Xingchen was kept in the dark and returned home with his belongings the next day.

After seeing her son off, Gu Qingyin turned around and boarded a plane to Berlin.

It was night when they arrived in Berlin. Gu Qingyin didn't waste a second and took a taxi to the street according to Huo Yunjing's memory.

But they didn't know the exact location, so Gu Qingyin got off the car at a familiar place and planned to look for it slowly.

Just after taking a few steps out, there was sudden silence all around. Even the sound of the wind disappeared. The scattered pedestrians around seemed to be paused, motionless, just like decorative paintings.

Gu Qingyin stopped and said calmly, "Master, have you gotten used to hiding after so many years? I'm the only one here, so why don't you dare show up?"

The surroundings were quiet for a few seconds, and then Xian Yufei's ambiguous voice rang out, "You are really unpleasant and not smart enough. You are still trying to irritate me at this time."

Gu Qingyin curled her lips slightly, "It's my fault. I didn't know that my uncle couldn't bear to hear the truth. I will be more careful next time."

As soon as he finished speaking, a few grains of sand appeared out of thin air three meters ahead and condensed into a complete human figure, which was Xian Yufei.

Xian Yufei had a habitual smile on his lips, but his eyes were creepy and he was obviously very angry.

After all, there is still some difference between a real person and an illusion. Xian Yufei is much taller than Gu Qingyin thought, and his aura is much stronger.

"Junior apprentice brother, it's time for you to come." As Xian Yufei finished speaking, his pupils suddenly turned a strange purple.

Almost at the same time, Gu Qingyin's pupils shrank and her whole body froze in place, unable to move.

Huo Yunjing suddenly appeared, transformed into a ghost, and pounced on Xian Yufei.

Xian Yufei did not dodge, but his left eye suddenly turned and stared at Huo Yunjing.

Huo Yunjing was suddenly struck by lightning and fell to the ground, looking at Xian Yufei with bloodshot eyes.

Xian Yufei's left eye was staring at him, but his right eye was still looking at Gu Qingyin. He looked very divided, as if there were two different souls living in his body.

There was still a smile on his lips, as if he was sure of victory, but after a few seconds, his brows frowned and a strong purple light burst out from his right eye.

Gu Qingyin still stood there without moving, but a brilliant golden light burst out from her eyes. In the invisible place, her soul was struggling to resist.

No one had ever attacked her soul before, and she didn't know her limit. Now she was trying to tap her potential.

Xian Yufei has been trying to control her, but she has been resisting and trying to follow the clues of his soul power to suppress it, or even control his soul.

People with extraordinary soul power are rare. Xian Yufei used to rely on the art of summoning spirits to directly control and kill souls, and he had never encountered an opponent.

I had been smooth sailing for most of my life, but I didn't expect to run into obstacles with my senior brother's apprentice.

Xian Yufei couldn't believe it and couldn't accept the reality at all. But as time went by, he clearly felt that his soul power was being forced back.

When he realized that he wanted to evacuate, he was already entangled by Gu Qingyin. Xian Yufei was startled, but as a veteran who had escaped for half his life, he was shocked for only a moment before he reacted. He immediately gave up the part of his strength that was attacking Gu Qingyin and used all his strength to control Huo Yunjing.

Gu Qingyin's eyes turned golden. Sensing Xian Yufei's intention, she snorted coldly, and a little bit of gold suddenly appeared in Huo Yunjing's scarlet eyes.

He is her soul messenger and also her man. With their complete trust in him, an invisible channel has been created between the man and the ghost, allowing them to transmit energy regardless of time and space.

With the help of Gu Qingyin, and the fact that Xian Yufei had previously given up some of his soul power, Huo Yunjing immediately broke free from the suppressed state and climbed up from the ground.

Huo Yunjing slowly raised his hand and made a gesture. Suddenly, a group of black birds flew out from the shadows behind him, opened their sharp claws, and swooped down towards Xian Yufei.

Xian Yufei, who was trying his best to control his soul power, was slow in his movements and could not avoid the attack at all.

But Xian Yufei was not panicked at all. He didn't even make any move to dodge. He just stood there steadily, waiting for the flock of birds to attack.

Huo Yunjing realized something was wrong, but he did not stop the attack. Instead, he reduced his contact with the flock of birds to the minimum. This way, even if Xian Yufei had any means of counterattack, he could protect himself in the first place.

Sure enough, when the flock of birds approached Xian Yufei within one meter, they were suddenly sucked over uncontrollably like metal attracted by a magnet, but they did not really stick to him.

The bird that was sucked turned into Yin Qi again in the blink of an eye and was eaten by Xian Yufei.

Huo Yunjing immediately stopped attacking upon seeing this, controlled the bird to hover in the air, and looked at him with a frown in confusion.

Normally, humans cannot absorb Yin energy, but Xian Yufei obviously absorbed it very well, but he is not a ghost...

"Who are you?" Huo Yunjing's voice was hollow and cold. "A living dead?"

Gu Qingyin was also surprised. She thought he was just an evil cultivator with no moral bottom line, but it turned out that he was even worse than an evil cultivator.

If I'm not mistaken, Xian Yufei's life span should have ended long ago, but he used some unknown method to forcibly imprison his soul in his body, and from then on he became a half-human, half-ghost being.

Yin energy is like a tonic to him.

Huo Yunjing let out a click of his tongue, and all the flying birds gathered together and merged into the shadow behind him again. The next second, Huo Yunjing instantly restrained his breath and became just like an ordinary person.

If it weren't for his pale face, no one would have known that he was not a human.

Huh? Xian Yufei was a little surprised, "Ghost cultivator?"

Normal ghosts cannot achieve this level. Only ghost cultivators who use orthodox cultivation methods and wish to become ghost immortals can do this.

Huo Yunjing didn't need to answer. He looked back helplessly, "Qingyin, my method doesn't seem to have any effect on him."

Gu Qingyin curled her lips in a soothing tone, "It's okay, go back first."

Huo Yunjing slowly disappeared, leaving behind an imperceptible sigh.

Gu Qingyin quickly raised her hand and threw out a piece of peach wood nail.

The peach wood nails fell to the ground with a clang, half of them embedded in the ground, forming a not-too-complicated formation, and then Gu Qingyin quickly made a hand gesture.

As her handprint fell, the formation was immediately activated, flashes of lightning appeared, and then a huge suction force erupted.

The next second, Xian Yufei was sucked into the formation.

 There is only one chapter today, I am not in good condition...
