Grandma also knew a little about sorcery and could observe the stars and perform divination. Last night, when he was observing the stars, he felt that things would not go too smoothly. As expected, they encountered the Soul Rakshasa.

“The mission failed,” Shadow Six said regretfully.

Grandma sat down at the table and poured tea for them. “You encountered a Soul Rakshasa. It’s already lucky that you survived. Besides, didn’t Zhou Jin sneak into the palace? In that case, the mission didn’t fail.”

It could only be said that they were resisting the Sorcerer Queen in another form.

Grandma cherished his words like gold and rarely said so much to them. It seemed that even Grandma was vigilant with the appearance of Rakshasa Soul.

“But… Why did he escape at dawn when he was so powerful before?” Yu Wan used the word escape. This didn’t sound appropriate. How could Soul Rakshasa escape? He was a unique expert in the world. However, combining the Soul Rakshasa’s realm and the situation at that time, she felt that the Soul Rakshasa was indeed running too fast.

In order to better find the medicinal primer for Yan Jiuchao, Grandma flipped through the books of various countries along the way. After entering the Wen Manor, he also obtained many of the Great Elder’s books through “Wen Xu” and the Second Madam. There was a handwritten letter that mentioned this Soul Rakshasa of the Sorcerer Clan.

“Do you know who the predecessor of this Soul Rakshasa was?” Grandma asked.

“Predecessor?” Yu Wan paused and thought of the Rakshasa King of the Nether Capital. The Rakshasa King’s predecessor was the head of the Sang family. Could this Soul Rakshasa’s predecessor also have a powerful background?

Yu Wan looked at the granny and said, “His methods are so powerful. Could it be… the Sorcerer King?” Didn’t they say that he was proficient in illusions and charm techniques? These two were branches of sorcery. In that case, he actually had very powerful sorcery.

Shadow Six took a weak breath. “That’s not right. The Sorcerer King and the sorcerers’ bodies are very weak, but his qinggong is very powerful.”

Yu Wan said, “Nothing is absolute in the world. Gu Masters don’t cultivate martial arts, but Ah Wei is an expert.”

And he was an expert among experts.

Shadow Six nodded in enlightenment. “That’s true. Could it be that the Soul

Rakshasa is really the Sorcerer King?”

Grandma said with a complicated expression, “The Soul Rakshasa isn’t a

Sorcerer King, but the Soul Rakshasa has devoured three Sorcerer Kings.”

“W-what? He devoured three… Sorcerer Kings?” Shadow Six suspected that he had heard wrongly. Did the Sorcerer Clan have so many Sorcerer Kings? And three of them were devoured in a row?

“How does he swallow them?” Yu Wan asked.

“Soul Charm,” Grandma said. “The Soul Rakshasa can extract the memories of

all experts and use tnem tor mmselt.”

Everyone shivered. Shadow Thirteen and the others had been in the pugilistic world for many years and had heard of many devouring cultivation techniques and internal energy. Experts of the same type could often absorb the internal energy of their companions. For example, Asura could absorb Asura, but Asura could not absorb the Blood Rakshasa because their cultivation techniques conflicted, so it was easy for them to go berserk and even die from blocked meridians.

However, from what Grandma said, the Soul Rakshasa did not seem to have such a problem. It could accommodate any internal energy and could also learn any cultivation technique. What was worse was that it did not even let go of the Host’s memories.

“What will happen to the people who are charmed?” Yu Wan asked.

Grandma said, “You’ll forget who you are, forget your cultivation technique and internal energy. If you’re not careful, you’ll become a fool. If it’s serious, you might become a living dead.”

“Just like… when Yan Jiuchao absorbed the Ghost King’s power and memories back then?” Yu Wan remembered that after the Ghost King’s power and memories were absorbed by Yan Jiuchao, he had indeed become a little fool.

Grandma paused, as if he also felt that this matter was a little strange.

However, soon, he shook his head and said, “Their situation is different. The Ghost King was attacked by Xiaobao and suffered the backlash of his own cultivation technique. His meridians were reversed and all his strength surged into Jiuchao’s body. As for the Ghost Kings memories… Although I can’t explain it, it should be a coincidence.”

“I see…” Yu Wan muttered.

Grandma continued, “This demonic creature is very impressive. It has devoured three Sorcerer Kings, so even Zhou Jin’s biological father is not its match. If the Saint King hadn’t happened to be in the clan and helped Zhou Jin’s father back then, I’m afraid this demonic creature would have already destroyed the entire Sorcerer Clan.”

“It’s so terrifying…” Zhou Yuyan clenched her fists and subconsciously leaned against Shadow Six.

Shadow Six felt Zhou Yuyan take a step towards him. He did not think that the girl was deliberately approaching him, but men and women should not touch each other. It was better for him not to touch her.

He leaned against Shadow Thirteen.

Zhou Yuyan saw him walk away and quietly leaned against him again.

Shadow Six also took another step.

Zhou Yuyan moved again.

Shadow Six also moved again.

Shadow Thirteen couldn’t stand it anymore. His slender and strong arm reached out and grabbed Shadow Six’s slender waist, bringing him into his arms. The others were focused on studying the matter of the Soul Rakshasa and did not notice the three of them.

Yu Wan continued, “But Shadow Six said that the Soul Rakshasa was very strong one moment and very weak the next. He escaped at dawn. What’s going on?”

Grandma looked at the flowers and plants in the courtyard that were fluttering in the wind and said, “Back then, the Soul Rakshasa was suppressed by the Saint King and the Sorcerer King and had been in a coma. If I’m not wrong, it hasn’t completely woken up. What you see is only its shadow.”

“Sh-Shadow?” Yu Wan blinked strangely.

Grandma nodded. “Or rather, a clone. It’s a puppet controlled with a puppet technique. ”

Grandma had also used such a trick before. When he was fighting with the

State Preceptor of Nanzhao, he had used puppet techniques to control the State

Preceptor of Nanzhao, causing him to accidentally kill a black envoy of the Ghost Clan. However… that puppet technique was short-lived and singular. It was far from the ever-changing techniques used by the Soul Rakshasa. Yu Wan was convinced. “A puppet is already so powerful.

Its mam Douy…

Shadow Six suddenly said, “By the way, Grandma, is it a man or a woman?”

Grandma shook his head. “I don’t know.”

No one knew. It was said that the only person who had really seen it was Zhou Jin’s mother. It was Zhou Jin’s mother who had personally sealed it in the coffin. However, Zhou Jin’s mother had already passed away, so its appearance, whether it was male or female, had become a mystery.

The coffin that sealed its main body was suppressed in the Hall of Light. Even the Sorcerer Queen had yet to completely open the coffin. The Sorcerer Queen had only awakened a portion of its consciousness and made a temporary deal with it.

Grandma frowned and said, “But I think it won’t be so easy for it to completely wake up. Its deal with the Sorcerer Queen has just begun. It still needs the Sorcerer Queen later on. Otherwise, it wouldn’t have agreed to help the Sorcerer Queen take back Ye Yang before it completely woke up… Its sudden weakness is also related to this.”

Yu Wan held her chin and said, “Is it a night owl? It’s so strong at night. It has to go back to sleep at dawn.”

Grandma said, “In the future, it will wake up longer and longer. Its strength will become stronger and stronger, and it will become harder and harder to deal with.”

“Then will Zhou Jin be in danger?” Compared to how to kill it, Yu Wan was more concerned about the current Little Zhou Jin. In order to not let the Sorcerer Queen succeed, that child had sacrificed himself.

He was not only doing this for the Sorcerer King, but also for Yan Jiuchao to successfully obtain the Sorcerer King’s tears.

Grandma pondered for a moment and said, “Zhou Jin better escape from the

Soul Rakshasa’s side before he wakes up for the second time. Otherwise, the

Soul Rakshasa will definitely see through him. The book says that the Soul Rakshasa is vengeful and proud. If it finds out that it has actually been tricked by a child’s illusion, it will definitely kill Zhou Jin in anger!”

On the flat official road, a carriage drove unhurriedly in the direction of the palace.

In the carriage sat a sleeping man. Beside the man was a handsome child. This child was no more than eight or nine years old, but he had the calmness and temperament of a person who had transcended his age.

When the carriage was about to enter the palace gate, the man’s eyebrows moved slightly.

Zhou Jin secretly clenched his fists. Although he was sitting upright, he had been paying attention to the man beside him. The man had slept all the way.

He understood that once the man woke up, he would regain some strength. Then his illusion would collapse.

Quickly enter the palace, quickly enter the palace… Zhou Jin prayed silently in his heart. He could get rid of the man after entering the palace. Little Gu jumped out of Zhou Jin’s arms and into his hand, looking at him without blinking. Zhou Jin gestured for it to keep quiet and said silently, “Don’t wake him up. If he wakes up, I’ll be finished.”

Little Gu tilted its head and obediently sat firmly in Zhou Jin’s palm.

The human and Gu did not cause any commotion. Coincidentally, when the carriage approached the palace, the wheels hit a stone. The carriage jolted violently and the man’s head hit the door. He was about to wake up.

Little Gu jumped up and knocked the man unconscious with a slap!
