Volume 13, Chapter 838 – Leave None Alive, Except the Mole-Marked Girls

Qi Huang moved with astonishing speed. In the blink of an eye, she had already appeared in a dense forest a thousand miles away. Her phoenix-like eyes were half-closed as her immense Divine Sense spread outward, enveloping the entirety of Heisi Star. Behind her, more than a hundred thousand strands of hair began to float, then suddenly shot out like venomous snakes flicking their tongues.

Whoosh!

Each strand locked onto a Ghost Tomato and began madly siphoning it.

As Qi Huang’s Divine Sense grew stronger, the absorption speed of her Boundless Demonic Hair also multiplied exponentially. Now, each strand needed but an instant to drain a Ghost Tomato completely.

Thus, Qi Huang heartlessly harvested the Ghost Tomatoes all across Heisi Star, and with each one devoured, her Divine Sense rapidly advanced.

Meanwhile, back at the evil spirits’ camp, Huang Jing was patiently keeping an eye on Deputy General Guo and his people. If anything went awry, she would immediately inform the main body.

At this moment, Deputy General Guo and Wei Zhuo were exchanging pleasantries with the local garrison commander. He was hoping to build some rapport before getting down to serious business, that might increase the chance of success.

The local commander was indeed a malicious ghost at the peak of the Demonic Realm. She had condensed her Yin Qi into the form of an old woman, vivid and lifelike. Aside from her faintly translucent body, she looked no different from any ordinary elderly lady.

“General Xie, it’s been a month since we last met. I trust you’ve been well? This is a flying bone I acquired on Kaiyuan Planet. It holds an abundance of Yin energy. Please accept it as a small gift,” said Deputy General Guo, presenting a bone brimming with ominous energy.

The ghostly old woman glanced at the bone on the table. She didn’t even reach for it, merely replied coolly, “They say one shouldn’t receive reward without merit. Deputy General Guo shows up bearing such an extravagant gift, how is this old woman supposed to accept that?”

“No need to be so formal, General Xie. Every time we pass through, we always trouble you. If you don’t accept it, how could I ever have the face to walk through your gates again?”

Guo tried to explain with forced sincerity.

“It’s already too late to say you’re just passing by. Deputy General Guo, you should understand, the rule for using the teleportation gate is gathering one hundred mole-marked girls. This is a decree set by our master. No one has the right to change it.”

The ghost old woman replied impassively.

Deputy General Guo gritted his teeth, then pleaded, “General Xie, we left Kaiyuan Planet in such a hurry, we truly didn’t have time to gather a hundred mole-marked girls. But General Sha has fallen in battle. We must return immediately to report to our master. Please, make an exception.”

“We fight all over the stars for the sake of our master’s conquest. Every day, countless ghostly brethren die in battle. If I had to make exceptions every time someone dies, then how many times would I need to make ‘exceptions’ in a year? If our master lays blame, how would I explain myself to her then?”

The old ghost woman countered calmly.

Deputy General Guo’s expression turned sour. He had anticipated something like this, but her tone still greatly displeased him.

“Now that I think about it,” the old woman suddenly said, voice turning cold, “you say you didn’t gather a hundred mole-marked girls, then how did you pass the previous two teleportation points?”

“…..”

Deputy General Guo was caught off guard by her sharp question and didn’t know how to respond.

“General,” Wei Zhuo stepped in smoothly, “when we passed by General Meng’s checkpoint, we did indeed have over a hundred mole-marked girls. But we lost some on the road. As for General Xiong… by the time we reached that outpost, it had already been wiped out by some unknown force, not a single survivor remained.”

Deputy General Guo let out a faint breath of relief upon hearing that. Everything was still uncertain, and he truly didn’t want to drag General Meng into this.

“Is that so? Then why does this bone here look like it came from General Xiong?” The ghost old woman cast a glance at the bone on the table.

Deputy General Guo’s heart trembled. Although he hadn’t killed General Xiong, the possibility of being implicated made him anxious.

“This bone fragment really did come from General Xiong. By the time we arrived, he was already dead, so we picked it up as a token of respect to present to you,” Wei Zhuo replied, half-truthfully. He knew that trying to hide everything would only deepen her suspicion.

“Is that so? Then this old woman thanks you both for your kindness.”

The old woman said with mocking sarcasm, then returned to her original stance: “But as I said, the rules were set by our master. I dare not defy her wishes. If you want to pass through, you’ll need to collect one hundred mole-marked girls.”

“But on this Heisi Star, there aren’t even any living creatures. Let alone women! Where are we supposed to find them?” Guo shouted in frustration.

“That’s your problem. Not mine. Move along.”

The ghostly old woman waved them off, utterly unmoved.

Helpless, Guo and Wei Zhuo sighed and exited the tent.

“What now? That old hag’s completely inflexible,” Wei Zhuo asked, worried.

“What can we do? It’s not like we can conjure up a few dozen women out of thin air. And they’d still have to have facial moles,” Guo said with a bitter laugh.

“If push comes to shove, we could use Chen Yuzhu to break the deadlock. If that old hag really is as upright as she appears, she shouldn’t get any funny ideas, right?” Wei Zhuo suggested again.

“No. First of all, just because General Meng agreed doesn’t mean this old hag will. Second, you can never truly know someone’s heart. Who’s to say she isn’t just pretending to be righteous?”

After carefully considering it, Guo still shook his head.

“If that’s the case, then we’ll have to think of something else. But what about food? If you can’t secure any blood, those mole-marked girls will be torn apart by the brothers sooner or later.”

Wei Zhuo pressed.

“Could you stop nagging me for a moment? You think I don’t know how serious this is? If you’ve got that much time, help me think of a real solution!”

Guo snapped impatiently.

By now, Qi Huang had already absorbed tens of millions of Ghost Tomatoes from Heisi Star. Her Divine Sense had also advanced from Kinship-Grade stage one to stage three.

She began scouring the land for any remaining stragglers. Unexpectedly, just then, she sensed a surge of figures pouring out from one of the teleportation gates near the local evil spirits’ camp; like a tidal wave, endless and overflowing.

Using her Divine Sense to scan, she discovered these newcomers were all evil spirits, and astonishingly, among them were seventy to eighty women, most of whom had moles on their faces.

‘Are these bastards also under orders to capture mole-marked girls on some other planet?’

That was Qi Huang’s first thought. But reality proved to be more complicated. These evil spirits were indeed hunting mole-marked girls, but they did not belong to the same demon lord as the local evil spirits stationed at the teleportation hub.

“General Lu, the other end of this teleportation gate seems quite promising. I wonder which demon lord they serve?”

At the front of the invading wicked army, a green-faced, tusked ghost Deputy General spoke to the towering zombie general beside him.

“I don’t care which demon lord they belong to. What I care about is that teleportation gate,” said the zombie general named Lu. His eyes were sharp and vigilant, scanning the surroundings.

“Congratulations, General. There are more than three teleportation gates on this planet. If we follow the trail, we might uncover even more. Once we seize them, our reach will grow farther, and naturally, we’ll be able to capture more mole-marked girls.”

The ghost Deputy General added after scanning with Divine Sense.

“Indeed. Looks like I came to the right place.” General Lu cracked his lips open, revealing a mouthful of razor-sharp fangs.

“Hm?” The ghost Deputy General suddenly frowned. “Congratulations again, General. I’ve detected over fifty mole-marked girls inside that local camp. It seems these local evil spirits are on the same mission as we are.”

“In that case, their master must also carry the blood of the Demon Ancestor, just like ours. This is a double blessing.”

Delighted, General Lu raised his spear and pointed toward the local wicked camp.

“Kill them all! Leave no one alive, except the mole-marked girls!”

“Yes!”

Thousands of vanguard soldiers roared in unison and charged the local wicked camp like savage beasts. And from the teleportation gate behind them, more evil spirits continued to flood in endlessly. No one could tell how many there were in total.

“Enemy attack! Prepare for battle, now!”

Within the local evil spirits’ camp, the old ghost woman surnamed Xie was the first to sense something was wrong. She immediately began organizing her troops to defend.

“Big sis, some foreign evil spirits are planning to attack the camp. What should we do?”

Huang Jing immediately reported to Qi Huang.

Qi Huang considered briefly, then replied, “What are you panicking for? It’s not like they’re going to kill the mole-marked girls. Just watch for now.”

“They may not kill the mole-marked girls, but they will capture them! Who knows how powerful the demon lord behind them is? What if we end up following them back, and you’re not strong enough to deal with them?”

Huang Jing voiced her concern.

“That’s exactly why I told you to just keep watching. That old hag Xie didn’t let us through, right? Why not let these outsiders take her out first, and then this immortal will take care of the outsiders. That way, all problems are solved.”

Qi Huang revealed her plan.
