Chapter 2209: Amazing even in death

This third spiritual body was Song Shuhang's ghost spirit.

The ghost spirit was one with him, so when his consciousness was drawn over by Pavilion Master Chu's secret technique, the ghost spirit's consciousness was also drawn over and transferred to the strand of hair.

Under normal circumstances, the appearance of a ghost spirit should be exactly like that of its host. However, Song Shuhang's ghost spirit had a completely different appearance from him, and it was female on top of that.

Moreover, his ghost spirit's consciousness appeared to be very young, only about five or six years old.

Strange, why is my ghost spirit's consciousness so weak? Song Shuhang thought to himself, wondering if there was something wrong with his ghost spirit.

"Do you see? This is your ghost spirit's consciousness." Pavilion Master Chu moved past Song Shuhang, reaching out to hold his ghost spirit in her arms like she was holding a baby.

With a dull expression on her face, the ghost spirit allowed Pavilion Master Chu to hold her without resisting.

Song Shuhang nodded. "Yeah, I can see her."

Pavilion Master Chu hugged Song Shuhang's ghost spirit and continued, "You should know that the senses of a ghost spirit are synced with its host's. As such... If you want to experience what it's like to be fed medicine again, I can let you experience it indirectly through your ghost spirit."

"Senior, I feel that if I were to accept your offer, you'd beat me to death," said Song Shuhang calmly. He was not at all tempted by Pavilion Master Chu's beauty.

With how firm his will was, how could he be affected by this degree of temptation?

Pavilion Master Chu fell back lazily. "...You really have fate with Buddhism."

"No, I do not. That's not true." Song Shuhang shook his head repeatedly.

Even though he had ascended to the Seventh Stage Venerable Realm, he did not want to become a monk.

He still wanted to get married and have children like ordinary people, and it would be best if he could have a boy and a girl in correspondence with the national two-child policy.

He would watch his daughter grow up day by day, and marry her off to a young man with a blurred face when she was of age, wishing her well.

Then, late at night, he and his wife would huddle under a quilt and weep quietly.

Although it was not easy for a Seventh Stage Venerable to have children, it was not impossible since Venerable Spirit Butterfly had Soft Feather after reaching the Venerable Realm.

As long as they worked hard, a Seventh Stage Venerable could still have a daughter!

Senior Spirit Butterfly was his role model.

As long as he had faith and worked hard, he could even have a second child after his daughter got married. In this way, the birth of his second child could reduce the sadness brought about by the marriage of his eldest daughter.

Pavilion Master Chu sat up again. She watched Song Shuhang's face, which was rich with changes, and felt like she was watching a short movie.

"What if I promise not to kill you? Do you want to try? Anyway, I'm just going to feed your ghost spirit medicine with my mouth. I don't mind your ghost spirit getting close to me." Pavilion Master Chu continued to ask.

Song Shuhang's ghost spirit gave her a very strange feeling. It was a feeling beyond kinship; it was as if they shared a deep level of trust that could not be described with words.

Song Shuhang shook his head even harder this time. "No need. After all, Senior Chu is old enough to be my great ancestor, and having you do that would make me feel rather strange."

Pavilion Master Chu: "???"

Shuhang was good at a lot of things. But sometimes, he forgot to use his brain before speaking.

Pavilion Master Chu gripped Song Shuhang's petite ghost spirit and used her as a weapon, slamming her into Shuhang's face. The ghost spirit and Song Shuhang were one, so hitting Song Shuhang with his ghost spirit should bring him double the pain!

Even though she was wielded as a weapon, the ghost spirit continued to have the same dull expression on her face and did not resist.

After spinning one, she hit Song Shuhang's face.

Pavilion Master Chu shouted, "Go!"

The consciousnesses of Song Shuhang and the ghost spirit were kicked out of her strand of hair and back to Song Shuhang's body.

Shuhang had learned from his previous experience and did not open his eyes this time.

When he returned to his body, Sixteen was slowly rising up from him.

Song Shuhang could still feel the fragrance lingering in his mouth.

There was a fragrant and fruity taste, as well as the taste of Sixteen.

Did I brush my teeth today?

Ah, wait... I'm now a Seventh Stage Venerable, and I don't need to brush my teeth. Let alone today, it's normal even if I were to not brush my teeth for a whole year!

He felt the hunger in his stomach begin to disappear. Fasting pills were a great thing; delicious and very useful.

Sixteen asked softly, "Are you awake?"

Don't you dare wake up, don't you dare wake up! Song Shuhang thought to himself.

If he were to open his eyes now, Sister White Dragon might reward him with another round of her draconic might!

And so, he continued to pretend to be unconscious and remained motionless.

Secretly, he focused his attention on his lips.

There was still some warmth left behind by Sixteen, and another sensation as well.

After carefully trying to figure out what it was, he felt that this sensation was very weird, just as if he had kissed himself.

The black-skinned Soft Feather asked, "Is Senior Song still hungry?"

She felt that she had to do something and occasionally perform her inner demon duties.

I'm not hungry anymore but thank you, Butterfly Song White Creation Yellow Trigram Lychee Six Dou Phoenix, Song Shuhang thought to himself. He did not dare to reply to her or use the secret sound transmission technique.

Sister White Dragon was a big shot. If he used the secret sound transmission technique, she would definitely notice the fluctuations caused by the technique.

Meanwhile, Thrice Reckless Mad Saber and Fairy Yuanyuan finally found a chance to escape.

Taking advantage of the increasing number of patients and the medical team being too busy, the two slipped off the hospital bed without attracting attention.

Everything went smoothly. Luck was on their side.

After leaving the place where the wounded were being treated, the two successfully sneaked into the depths of the base.

They met no obstacles on their way.

"Senior Gangfeng, let's split up," said Fairy Yuanyuan said to Thrice Reckless Mad Saber via sound transmission. "According to the information we received, the legendary Scholarly Sage's resurrection formation should be hidden in this area."

Thrice Reckless Mad Saber nodded expressionlessly.

It was really as the seniors had guessed. The target of the invading force was the Scholarly Sage's resurrection formation.

What were they planning to do? Did they want to bring the Scholarly Sage back to life?

Could it be that they were members of the scholarly faction?

Several guesses flashed through Thrice Reckless Mad Saber's mind.

"Senior, the Scholarly Sage's resurrection formation can definitely withstand the strength of the Venerable Emperor. The survivors of the Ancient Heavenly City wanted to transform it into a formation that would resurrect the Heavenly Emperor, but they did not expect that they would end up doing the work for us," transmitted Fairy Yuanyuan.

Thrice Reckless Mad Saber nodded silently.

I see...

No wonder the members of the Ancient Heavenly Court created a base around the Scholarly Sage's resurrection formation. They wanted to resurrect the Heavenly Emperor.

And what the invading forces want to do is something similar. They also want to use the formation to resurrect this "Venerable Emperor."

The Scholarly Sage was truly amazing. Even a resurrection formation of his could attract all kinds of forces and make them dance for it.
