Wen Yan put down the teacup and looked at Huo Yong, who seemed to have some expectations.
What Huo Yong did indeed deserves immediate punishment, although strictly speaking, Huo Yong only harmed one person from Divine Land and a Ghost. Among those Ghost Wealth Gods, except for Zhou Xiaorong, a university student with a strong obsession and relatively simple-minded, the rest were all more guilty than Huo Yong.
In just over a day, the interrogation results from the Scorching Sun Department have shown that the Ghost Wealth Gods are already turning on each other. It’s confirmed that one Ghost Wealth God has harmed more than twenty living people, not considering the Ghosts, which is deserving of death.
This guy specifically targeted people in remote places. Before their disappearance, they all left under the guise of working, so no one took it seriously. Even neighbors, not seeing them for a year or two, would only think they’ve settled in the city, or ended up working in a factory.
Those Ghost Wealth Gods, who don’t seem very strong, are the true perpetrators of evil.
In comparison, the troublesome Huo Yong’s wrongdoing seemed almost straightforward.
Wen Yan told Huo Yong about the current results of interrogating other Ghost Wealth Gods, clearly stating to Huo Yong that, when it comes to crimes, he isn’t even on the list.
Huo Yong’s expression was strange, somewhat disdainful, as if he also regretted that his crimes weren’t enough to warrant death.
Wen Yan pondered for a moment, said no more, and turned to leave.
He was beginning to understand the essence of it all.
He roughly speculated the sequence of events and the changes in Huo Yong.
When Huo Yong initially awoke and turned into a Ghost Wealth God, he didn’t feel any connection to the place he was in, nor did he care about Ghosts or living people. He only wanted to accumulate resources at all costs.
Currently, it is presumed that the tribe where Huo Yong was, had not yet reached Xiao Xiang County.
Later, he must have gone into hiding, gaining some information and forming a basic understanding of this era.
In his understanding, Divine Land is a huge tribe, encompassing the tribe he once belonged to.
His sense of warrior’s pride made him disdainful of bullying the ordinary people and Ghosts of Divine Land, so he specifically went to the border to gather Ghosts from outside.
This aligns with Huo Yong’s simple and crude understanding, "I am a warrior, bullying ordinary people from my tribe is too unwarrior-like, but those not from my tribe are enemies, and I can do anything to them."
He despised the Witch, even preferring not to die at the hands of the Wudang Sect Leader.
After being defeated, this guy was bent on seeking death. Wen Yan now felt that this was not just to die by his hand.
Wen Yan remembered the Wudang Sect Leader saying that the demonic sealing artifact broken at the time was part of a seal for something elsewhere.
Given Huo Yong’s current aversion to the Witch, could it be that Huo Yong did not willingly transform into Huo Yong?
According to the Wudang Sect Leader’s description of an ancient sealing method, if Huo Yong didn’t voluntarily become Huo Yong, could he be part of that seal?
A Huo Yong who cannot die, the most fitting way to send him off, is the Song of the Witch, but the required materials can’t be gathered at all.
Sealing Huo Yong again, nesting the dolls, and the core seal can never be opened.
If one thinks this way, before the key and lock appear, Huo Yong is the lock that cannot be opened without a key.
Previously, Huo Yong experienced the suppression from the title "Natural Enemy" feeling powerless, and he is convinced Wen Yan is the person who doesn’t need the Song of the Witch process to kill him.
After talking to Huo Yong and seeing him seem a bit impatient, Wen Yan wasn’t in a rush.
Waiting for Huo Yong to become completely impatient, waiting for him to be willing to provide some core information before proceeding.
"Laozi is a warrior, I don’t kill those without the strength to truss a chicken," this is a reason Huo Yong would surely believe.
Just keep dragging it out.
If this idea of his is true, then it might not be just Huo Yong alone.
Afterwards, he gave the Wudang Sect Leader a call to communicate his speculations.
After listening, the Wudang Sect Leader pondered for a while.
"It’s really possible, this is the standard sealing method of that time, key and lock are one." ƒreewebɳovel.com
"An entity that can’t be killed aligns perfectly with this statement."
"If that’s the case, then indeed there might be other objects as sealing artifacts."
"The demonic sealing artifact broken last time could indeed have been sealing Huo Yong."
"It seems like a complex nested scenario, but it’s actually a whole."
"And Senior, can you identify what the other sealing artifacts might be?"
"Can’t tell, it’s too ancient, too far back even before documented history that can be cross-referenced, it cannot be guessed."
"..."
Wen Yan was speechless, his small beehive truly turned into a detention center.
After Wen Yan hung up, Zhou Xiaorong called and said a small temple on the main square had collapsed and vanished.
When a Ghost Wealth God’s earthly small temple and statue are destroyed, coupled with their death outside, the small temple and statue projection in the main square will also collapse and vanish.
Wen Yan confirmed the number and easily checked that it was the Ghost Wealth God who escaped Southern Sea County yesterday.
"When did it collapse, can you confirm?"
"Yes, it just collapsed not long ago and has already vanished."
"Okay, I understand."
It’s been more than a day, and only now has the Ghost Wealth God died, so it seems he believed that the Sea Beast which devoured that fugitive Ghost Wealth God has only now digested him, capable of digesting that Ghost Wealth God.
