Chapter 159 Necromancy
Zhang Lexuan pinched her nose and frowned, saying, "Let's go out first, and then we can talk about the various abilities of your corpse puppet."
"
Even though Huo Yuhao used his second spirit to freeze the blood, flesh, and bone fragments into ice crystals, the faint stench of blood and rotting flesh still lingered in the air, making it unbearable. Now that the Death Hand bandit group had been completely wiped out, there was no need to stay inside the cave for the remaining cleanup work; they could make plans outside.
Huo Yuhao understood Zhang Lexuan's meaning. After giving the orders to the corpse puppet, the two of them left at full speed without saying a word.
After hurrying through the dimly lit cave, enduring the stench of blood and decay, the two finally emerged outside. The moon was now in the southwest; night was ending, and the sun was about to rise.
"Speak quickly! We need to use your corpse puppet's abilities to blow this place up and sneak back!"
Huo Yuhao patted the corpse puppet's leg and laughed, "Sister Lexuan, do you see its five heads?"
"I see it, so what about the five heads?"
"Each of its heads was once a powerful overlord, and the abilities of those overlords were preserved during the process of refining the corpse puppet. That is to say, its five heads possess five different types of abilities."
The White Tiger's head controls light, the Wolf King's head controls ice and frost, and the three dragon heads control wind, thunder, and fire. By utilizing this characteristic of the corpse puppets, we can completely fabricate a scene of multi-party chaos.
"Let's begin!"
Zhang Lexuan didn't intend to ask any more questions at this moment; there would be plenty of opportunities later.
Upon hearing her words, Huo Yuhao didn't delay any longer and immediately ordered the corpse puppet, "Five heads, attack together! Destroy the cave! Be careful with the force! Don't overdo it!"
The dragon head at the very center of the corpse puppet nodded slightly, then its two enormous bone wings flapped violently, instantly propelling its ten-meter-tall body into the air. Simultaneously, all five beast heads opened their massive jaws, and white, blue, cyan, purple, and red lights flashed all at once!
The next moment, five beams of light, each half a meter thick and of various colors, shot through the cave like arrows, instantly piercing through the mountain above it. Terrifying explosions followed one after another.
The entire process took less than half a minute. The mountain in front of Huo Yuhao and Zhang Lexuan collapsed, turning the hideout of the Death Hand bandits into ruins.
After recalling the corpse puppet, Huo Yuhao summoned the Moonlit Death Scythe once more. He closed his eyes and softly chanted obscure incantations. The gray soul ring behind him lit up gently, and a gray-white magic circle appeared at the tip of the scythe, within which a cluster of gray-white purifying flames burned.
After Huo Yuhao finished chanting the incantation, the purifying fire within the magic circle ignited completely. Then, Huo Yuhao gently swung his scythe, and the magic circle began to rotate.
"Boom! Boom! Boom!"
He slashed the Moonlit Death Scythe into the air, and the magic circle began to spin rapidly at the tip of the blade. The purifying fire exploded and scattered like dandelion seeds falling into the rain. Silently, the accumulated bloodlust, vengeful spirits, and evil souls in the area were swept away.
Zhang Lexuan stared blankly at the scene before her, speechless for a long time. If she had previously been worried about the necromancy used by Huo Yuhao, she no longer had any such concerns.
The moment the purifying fire dissipated, the unsettling feeling in the area vanished completely, leaving only a sense of peace and tranquility in one's heart.
"Is this Elder Yi's necromancy?"
Huo Yuhao nodded and said, "Our teacher once said that necromancy is actually life magic. If someone uses it to harm life, necromancy is a forbidden song of killing and death. If someone uses it to comfort living beings, necromancy is a lullaby of solace and healing."
"Now, I can finally relax. My Yuhao has been doing the right thing all along." Zhang Lexuan gently hugged Huo Yuhao, nestled on his shoulder, and murmured softly.
Huo Yuhao paused for a moment, then smiled and patted her on the back, saying, "Alright, everything's taken care of. We should go back now."
,"Um...
'
By the time the two returned to the military camp, it was already dawn. Using their simulated soul skills, Huo Yuhao and Zhang Lexuan returned to their tents without alerting anyone.
While everyone was meditating, the two returned to their respective positions, as if nothing had happened...
White Tiger Duke's Mansion.
When Dai Hao learned that his two good sons had been expelled from Shrek Academy for their assassinations, he was furious. For years, he had been busy with military affairs and rarely returned home. He never imagined that this would cause his two sons to neglect their upbringing and commit such lawless acts!
Upon returning to his residence, he immediately ordered his men to bring his two rebellious sons over without further ado.
Duchess Zhu Yumeng had already received the news and hurried to Dai Hao's private courtyard.
"Hao! Why are you back?"
Dai Hao's eyes widened, and he roared angrily, "These two bastards have caused such a huge mess, and you still want to hide it from me?"
"It was my negligence in disciplining him..." Zhu Yumeng didn't dare to talk back to Dai Hao at this moment; all she could think about was keeping Huo Yuhao's identity a secret for as long as possible...
"You still have the nerve to say you neglected to discipline them? These two brats have completely severed the ten-thousand-year-old relationship between my White Tiger lineage and Shrek Academy! Don't tell me you don't know Xu Jiawei's plans! After this incident, this ambitious emperor will definitely test us! Once he finds an excuse, let alone the White Tiger lineage, how will your Netherworld lineage fare any better?"
"For so many years I have lived in fear and trembling, afraid that he would find an excuse, and I even simply lived in the military camp!"
"And what have you all done! Your chaotic antics have rendered all my years of hard work futile! How could I possibly stand by and not come back? If I hadn't returned, the entire White Tiger Duke's mansion would have been buried by you incompetent fools!"
"Hao, calm down! We'll talk about this when our sons get here!"
"Hmph!" Dai Hao didn't want to look at this stupid woman anymore, so he simply turned his head away and closed his eyes, out of sight, out of mind.
Seeing this, Zhu Yumeng didn't know what to say, so she could only stand aside and quietly wait for Dai Yueheng and Dai Huabin to arrive.
After a while, four White Tiger Guards brought Dai Huabin and Dai Yueheng over.
The two brothers exchanged a cold glance. If Zhu Yumeng hadn't deliberately arranged for people to keep an eye on them these past few days, Dai Yueheng and Dai Huabin would most likely have gotten into a fight, with Dai Huabin probably getting beaten up.
The Duchess naturally understood this, and fearing that Dai Yueheng might actually kill his own brother, she entrusted Fan Zhixie with taking care of him.
