Chapter 740: The Real Phoenix Girl, The First Slap In The Face

“There was no reincarnation?” Zhuge Yun looked unbelievingly at Helian Wei Wei. “Brother Wei, why do you think so?”

Helian Wei Wei curved her lips upward; her tone was languid, “Looking at the Ni family’s way of handling things, it is likely if they told some lies in order to win over people. Not to mention...I know the Ni Feng you are talking about.”

“You know Young Lady Ni?” Zhuge Yun felt even more baffled. “She has always been sickly. She recently emerged after being in confinement for a long time. How did you come to know her, Brother Wei?”

Helian Wei Wei gave him a meaningful look. “I was actually referring to Ni Feng in the last generation.”

“Ni Feng in the last generation!” Zhuge Yun found out that he raised his voice too loudly so he looked around him and muttered, “How is that possible? That would have to be a few hundred years ago. Stop joking around, Brother Wei. I’m still very afraid of ghosts!”

Upon hearing this, Helian Wei Wei could not help but feel amused. “An exorcist that is afraid of ghosts?”

Zhuge Yun could not imagine himself revealing his weakness in this way. However, the words that she had mentioned was unbelievable and had indeed caught him off guard. Scratching his head, Zhuge Yun’s face turned slightly red. “When I was young, I once visited the Ni family’s residence and got terrified by a corpse there, I could never forget how I felt back then.”

“The Ni family’s residence had corpse?” Helian Wei Wei halted her steps; her eyes gleaming.

Zhuge Yun nodded as he replied, “This happened a long time ago when my father was still alive. The relationship between our families was not like how it is now, and as children, we liked to have adventures. Back then, I was fearless and I thought I was a big deal just because I could draw Chinese talisman. However, in reality, casting it was not as simple. I cannot remember the exact details now. But Brother Wei, how are you so certain about the reincarnation of Phoenix Girl?”

That’s because the person standing in front of you is the real reincarnation of the Phoenix Girl. Helian Wei Wei did not say this out loud, but the eminent monks would never lie. However, she did not have an ounce of spiritual aura on her right now, so she really did not look like the Phoenix Girl.

Noticing that she had kept silent, Zhuge Yun said earnestly, “To be honest, at the time my father also suspected that Ni Feng may not be the real reincarnated Phoenix Girl. But this is something that happened a few hundred years ago, so there was no way to prove it. The Young Lady Ni from a hundred years ago was indeed powerful. She went into the magical realm and returned without a scratch on her. So everyone past and present believed wholeheartedly that she was the reincarnated Phoenix Girl. No one would have believed my father’s speculations. But when my father was alive he once mentioned that the Exorcising Tribe had this ancient book which recorded that the Phoenix Girl, marked by dharma would only reincarnate when demons were truly running rampant. She would return to the human realm to save the world. Yet, when the previous Young Lady Ni was casting spells, she was not marked with dharma as predicted. This was something only a few knew of...”

Upon hearing this, it was clear that certain things could be confirmed.

Helian Wei Wei smilingly said, “Since all that happened could be false, then the current one might be false as well.”

“Brother Wei,” Zhuge Yun said seriously. “I have never discussed this with anyone else, I hope you can keep this a secret.”

Helian Wei Wei nodded. “Don’t worry, I am not someone who would simply spread rumors.”

“I am just wondering where the real Phoenix Girl is.” Zhuge Yun looked at the darkening skies and heaved a long sigh. “According to my father, the ancient records mentioned that the Phoenix Girl’s dharma would be illuminated by the Buddha’s light and would be able to reform all the evil spirits in the world. I really wish I could see for myself who she really is.”

Helian Wei Wei coughed slightly when she heard this and patted his shoulder. “Don’t worry, you will definitely meet her one day.”

“I’m just thinking about it, the Phoenix Girl is not someone I can easily meet.” Zhuge Yun smiled in adoration. However, his voice deepened as he remembered something, “Even though Young Lady Ni may not be the Phoenix Girl, but her spiritual aura is truly something. Even if we hate to acknowledge this, we still have to be mentally prepared for it. It is very likely that we may toil the entire day to reach the entrance, just to find them waiting for us there.”

“Is that so?” Baili Jia Jue who had been silently standing by the side the entire time let out a smile. He stood where the sun shone, using his left hand to put on the glove for his right hand. His long and narrow eyes sparkled like gleaming gems with an inexplicable sense of elegance. The curled corners of his mouth were like hooks, entrancing people with ease.

For some reason, Zhuge Yun found him devilishly charming. He was so infatuated that he could only nod his head absentmindedly.

Helian Wei Wei began laughing as she could certainly understand what His Highness meant. She then said in a clear voice, “The contest has just begun, perhaps we will end up being the ones waiting for them.”

“Hopefully.” Zhuge Yun did not really take Helian Wei Wei’s words to heart. He was busy thinking about how he could guarantee the safety of their team on their journey to the tomb entrance. As for the rest... even if he did want to win, he did not dare to think too much about it. First and foremost, he had to guarantee the safety of these two people, that was his promise to his mother.

Unbeknownst to them, Xiao Lingyu had overheard Helian Wei Wei’s words. He scoffed as he turned to say to the people behind him, “Look at that, what did we just hear? They should really take a hard look at themselves. I think it would be a great accomplishment for them if they could avoid dying here. Yet they are dreaming of winning? There should be a limit to arrogance and conceited. These people are really thick-skinned.”

Unsurprisingly, the members of the other eight teams began to join in his mockery.

Originally, every route would have 10 different teams starting together.

From their team formation to their skills, Xiao Lingyu’s team was undeniably the strongest team on this route.

Some exorcists had secretly begun to plot their own schemes from the moment they started.

As the heir of the Xiao Family, Xiao Lingyu’s exorcism magic should be more than competent. This also meant that if they could curry favor with him, then they would not have to face any demons that appeared on their own. As long as they could make it to the tomb entrance alive and finish among the top 10 teams, then they would be able to enter the graveyard and see the Sarira.

Thus, once Xiao Lingyu opened his mouth, his words immediately received a favorable response from the people around him.

“Master Xiao, let’s ignore them, let them continue standing here in their daydreams. If anything appears later, they will know to whom they should kneel and beg for help!”

As the sound of their laughter grew louder, it caused the entire forest to vibrate with the echo of it all.

Zhuge Yun clenched his fists as his face reddened with fury. This bunch of people is really too much!

However, Helian Wei Wei’s expression did not change in the slightest. She remained as indifferent as ever.

After Xiao Lingyu finished speaking, he led his people ahead triumphantly.

In an attempt to strive for vindication, Zhuge Yun immediately wanted to go after them, but Baili Jia Jue stopped him. “Don’t go there.”
