Xiao Xiaodong walked in the gloomy village, frowning.

Within the territory of the Green Cloud Immortal Sect, miasm spread and people died. Xiao Xiaofan was assigned to investigate on it thoroughly. As he was pregnant, Xiao Xiaodong took the task over. Chen Xu was worried about him, so he asked Xiao Xiaofan to take care of his son, Xiao Ziyu, and went out with Xiao Xiaodong.

The small octopus on Chen Xu’s shoulder took a deep breath and said happily, “It smells great here!”

Chen Xu scratched its head and said with a strange expression, “It’s good that you like it.”

Chen Xu rolled his eyes. He didn’t think the smell was good. All the major sects knew a little about the methods of Sacred Sect. Before they came here, Chen Xu and the others had taken pills that helped them resist the corpse Qi. Even though he had taken the pill, Chen Xu found it difficult to stay in such a stinky place. However, the small octopus liked the smell. How weird.

The octopus extended its eight tentacles, and instantly the corpse Qi that shrouded the town surged over. The octopus swallowed up all the corpse Qi and burped in satisfaction.

Chen Xu looked at the small octopus and said worriedly, “Little Eight, what are you doing? Why do you eat everything?”

The small octopus blinked and smiled at Chen Xu, who felt frightened.

“It’s okay. It can digest the corpse Qi. The race loves to eat weird things. Filthy.” The little pheasant raised its chin and said with distain.

Its words relieved Chen Xu.

The several Green Cloud Immortal Gate disciples who followed Xiao Xiaodong on the trip looked at the octopus with admiration.

The octopus noticed the attention on it, so it proudly waved its tentacles and jumped up and down on Chen Xu’s shoulder.



As they walked, a zombie suddenly rushed out, and Xiao Xiaodong cut it into halves.

“It doesn’t seem to be miasma. It looks like corpse Qi,” Chen Xu said.

After a cultivator breathed in the corpse Qi, he would turn into a zombie if he was deeply poisoned. If he was not strong enough, he wound turn into a rotten corpse.

Xiao Xiaodong nodded and said, “I wonder who is so crazy.” Dead bodies were scattered everywhere in the town, and most of them were rotten.

“Mr. Xiao.” Someone came up to them.

Xiao Xiaodong looked at the man and asked in confusion, “You are…?”

“I’m Xu Chang, the head of the Xu family. My family is in this neighborhood. If the miasma continues to spread, my family will be affected,” Xu Chang said.

Xiao Xiaofu glanced at Xu Chang, who was followed by a few people. Xu Jin was not there.

Xiao Xiaofu knew that the people behind Xu Chang should be the most respected ones of the Xu family.

Generally speaking, Xu Jin should be there on such an occasion. After Xu Kai was expelled from the family, Xu Jin became the heir of the Xu family. Since Xu Jin wasn’t here now, he should be out of favor.

Xiao Xiaofu was not interested in the affairs of the Xu family. When he met Xu Chang’s eyes, he did not greet him.

Xu Chang glanced at Xu Kai and Xiao Xiaofu beside Xiao Xiaodong. When he saw their indifferent faces, he felt disappointed.

Xiao Xiaodong looked at Xu Chang. Although he knew about Xu Chang’s relationship with Xiao Xiaofu, he did not point it out and instead said in a businesslike manner, “Mr. Xu, since the Xu house is located in the neighborhood, you should know about the source of the corpse Qi.”

Xu Chang nodded and said, “Yes. If I didn’t make a mistake in my investigation, the source of the corpse Qi should be Buzhou Mountain. A while ago, someone saw a few cultivators in black roam the mountain.”

“Thank you for your information. In that case, we have to go there,” Xiao Xiaodong said with a serious expression.

Xu Chang hesitated and said, “Mr. Xiao, it’s very dangerous on Buzhou Mountain. Why don’t you get more helpers?”

“The head of the sect would not interfere in such a small matter.” Xiao Xiaodong shook his head.

Apart from Dongcheng Yang, there were only Golden Cores at preliminary and medium levels in the sect, and they could not help much.

The little pheasant took a deep breath and said, “That’s right. From the density of corpse Qi, the trouble makers should be some small potatoes, which I can easily kill with one claw.”

Xu Chang was speechless.

He was amazed by the little pheasant on Xiao Xiaodong’s shoulder. Usually demonic beasts could talk only after they advanced to Golden Cores. He had learnt long ago that the eldest son of the Xiao family had taken a demonic pheasant as his pet. He scanned the pheasant with his soul force twice, but he didn’t spot anything unusual about it. The pheasant giggled.

Xu Chang’s heart jumped. He vaguely felt that the bird was laughing at him.



Xiao Xiaodong and the others headed towards Buzhou Mountain. On the way, the octopus incessantly swallowed the corpse Qi, and its belly grew bigger rapidly. After it digested the Qi, its belly went back to the normal size.

Chen Xu watched the octopus with concern in the beginning, worrying that it would get sick for swallowing such an evil thing, but soon he was relieved.

Xu Chang walked with them, intending to say a few words to Xu Kai. However, Xu Kai and Xiao Xiaofu had been walking with Xiao Xiaodong and treating Xu Chang with distance, so he didn’t know how to break the ice.
