“The one who took me in was Zhang San Ye’s descendant, Zhang San Lian Zi’s descendant. You should have heard of him, right?” Lu Feng said.
“Zhang San Ye, the one who wears three talismans?” Hu Ba Yi exclaimed.
“I’ve heard of him too.” Xue Li Yang said.
“It’s him.”
“I didn’t know we had this kind of connection.”
Hu Ba Yi was both surprised and delighted. His grandfather learned his skills from Zhang San Ye’s disciple, Sun Guo Fu. This meant he and Lu Feng weren’t strangers, right?
No.
Lu Feng was driven out by the Zhang family.
“Who is Zhang San Ye? Is he very powerful?” Wang Pang Zi asked curiously.
“Zhang San Ye is a legendary figure, a man who wears three tomb-robbing talismans. The sixteen-character Yin-Yang Feng Shui secret technique of my ancestors was passed down from him, he’s my ancestor teacher.” Hu Ba Yi said.
“That powerful?”
After returning to Beijing from Ye Ren Gou, Wang Pang Zi had learned a lot about tomb robbing from Hu Ba Yi, knowing that those who possessed tomb-robbing talismans were extraordinary.
But Zhang San Ye was even more powerful, three times as strong!
“As for Xue Li Yang.”
Lu Feng smiled and continued, “Your grandfather, Partridge Whistle, studied under Zhang San Ye’s disciple, Lied Chen Dao Shi. We are also somewhat related.”
“How did you know this?”
Xue Li Yang only mentioned her grandfather being Partridge Whistle in front of Hu Ba Yi, but never said that he studied under Lied Chen.
Hu Ba Yi was taken aback.
So they were all disciples?
Xue Li Yang suddenly thought of something and looked at the Queen of Jing Jue, “Before I came here, I dreamed about the bottomless ghost pit many times. I saw your coffin. What’s going on?”
“I haven’t influenced you. That’s your own ability.”
Wu Chan stared at Xue Li Yang, she could sense the curse of the ghost pit on Xue Li Yang.
This curse wasn’t newly acquired like Lu Feng’s, Hu Ba Yi’s, Wang Pang Zi’s, or Professor Chen’s. It was something she was born with. This was interesting.
“My reason?”
Xue Li Yang fell into deep thought.
“Don’t you understand? The prophet said before that there was a descendant of the prophet among us. I think you are the descendant of the prophet.” Wang Pang Zi said casually.
Lu Feng saw this and said, “Pang Zi is right, you are a Zagrama clan member, and the prophet is also a Zagrama.”
“Really?!”
Wang Pang Zi looked shocked.
“What’s going on?”
Xue Li Yang felt a little confused.
What connection was there between the Tomb Robbing Path, the Zagrama clan, the Ghost Pit clan, the Jing Jue Kingdom, the Demon Kingdom, and the ghost pit curse?
“Let me tell you about their connections.”
“Long, long ago, there was an ancient god - the body of the Snake God died, its eye on the top of its head turned into the Phoenix Gall, also known as the Kunlun Bead, and its memory turned into the bottomless ghost pit.”
“A tribe discovered the bottomless ghost pit and made a deal with the Snake God, getting the Kunlun Bead. Then they went to Kunlun and established the Demon Kingdom.”
“Then the Zagrama clan came to the bottomless ghost pit, created jade eyeballs to peek into the bottomless ghost pit, which attracted the black-eyed snake monsters and the hereditary ghost pit curse.”
“In order to find a way to break the curse, the Zagrama clan migrated eastward, gradually becoming the Tomb Robbing Path, Xue Li Yang’s clan.”
“Later, the Demon Kingdom angered Heaven and was destroyed by World-Saving Treasure Bead King and his people.”
“A part of the Demon Kingdom remnants returned to the Zagrama Mountain, they called themselves the Ghost Pit clan and established the Jing Jue Kingdom.”
“Later, the Zagrama clan wanted to return to Zagrama Mountain to find a way to break the curse, so they pretended to be fortune-tellers and poisoned the Prince of Gu Mo to kill the Queen of Jing Jue.”
“After the Queen of Jing Jue fell, countries formed a coalition to conquer the Jing Jue Kingdom. At the same time, the true god descended to punish them and drowned everyone.”
“Now, understand?”
“So that’s how it is!”
Xue Li Yang, Hu Ba Yi, and Wang Pang Zi suddenly understood.
After being told by Lu Feng, the messy information suddenly became clear.
But.
Lu Feng threw out another terrifying existence - the Snake God!
The Queen of Jing Jue’s eyes suddenly became sharp, she glared at Xue Li Yang with murderous intent. Her Jing Jue Kingdom was destroyed because of the Zagrama clan!
Xue Li Yang felt like she was being stabbed by needles all over, as if she was going to die the next second.
“Wu Chan!”
Lu Feng shouted.
“My Jing Jue Kingdom was destroyed by her ancestors!”
“Your Jing Jue Kingdom was originally brutal, without the Zagrama clan, the Jing Jue Kingdom would also be destroyed in other ways. You are not allowed to attack Xue Li Yang.”
“You!”
Wu Chan snorted coldly and turned to leave.
Xue Li Yang breathed a sigh of relief, “Thank you.”
“You’re welcome.”
Wang Pang Zi saw that the atmosphere was not right, so he changed the topic, “Lu Feng, is this Snake God really a god?”
“Its eyes can open up the virtual space and make people disappear directly. Its soul is immortal, and it can control countless black-eyed snake monsters. What do you think?”
“Gulp!”
The body of a creature from billions of years ago is dead, but its soul still exists. Does it matter if it’s a god? It’s definitely a very terrifying existence!
“Lu Feng, what is the ghost pit curse?” Hu Ba Yi asked curiously.
“This is the power of the virtual space. Those who are cursed will have their blood gradually coagulate and die, they usually don’t live past 50 years old.”
Hu Ba Yi and Wang Pang Zi looked at Xue Li Yang with sympathy.
“You don’t need to sympathize with her.”
“We’ve shared hardships, it’s only natural to have some sympathy.”
“You’re also cursed by the ghost pit.”
“Wh… what?”
“Don’t scare us!”
“I’m cursed too.”
Hu Ba Yi …
Wang Pang Zi …
Xue Li Yang …
“How is that possible? Why are we cursed by the ghost pit?”
Wang Pang Zi was immediately anxious. He didn’t want to live to 100, but 70 or 80 years should be enough. Now you’re telling me I only have 20 years to live?
“The bottomless ghost pit connects to the virtual space. It’s always open. We’ve looked into the bottomless ghost pit and were affected by it. That’s why we’re cursed.”
“Damn!”
Wang Pang Zi regretted it so much he slapped his thigh, “If I had known I wouldn’t have climbed over to look. Now it’s too late, I only have 20 years left to live!”
Hu Ba Yi’s mood also plummeted, feeling like his life was suddenly without hope.
“Wu Chan, can you lift the ghost pit curse?” Xue Li Yang asked.
Hu Ba Yi and Wang Pang Zi suddenly woke up.
How could they forget about the Queen of Jing Jue!
She’s from the Ghost Pit clan, she has the Ghost Eye!
“To break the ghost pit curse, you need to close the virtual space. My eyes can only send people to the virtual space, I can’t close it.”
“How come?”
“My eyes are not the complete Wu Jie Yao Tong.”
“…”
The three of them were dejected.
“Don’t be so down, you can close the virtual space if you find the Kunlun Bead, and your curse will naturally be lifted.” Wu Chan said.
“We’ve been looking for it for thousands of years, but we haven’t found it. To find it -” Xue Li Yang shook her head and sighed.
“Lu Feng can find it.” Wu Chan smiled.
Whoosh!
The three of them looked at Lu Feng at the same time.
Lu Feng smiled, “90% chance.”
Xue Li Yang, Hu Ba Yi, and Wang Pang Zi widened their eyes, such a high chance?
“Don’t worry, everyone, I will definitely break this ghost pit curse. We’re all tired today, so rest early. We’ll prepare to go back tomorrow.”
