As they were about to bury Baji and his people alive, I couldn’t stand still anymore

 and 

jump

ed

 out. I 

d

irectly

 launched

 the Emei Piercer, which 

headed for

 the freak in white! 

With my arm strength, I knew my weapon 

w

ould stab him. Unexpectedly, the Emei Piercer clanged as if it had hit a metal sheet. Then, it fell

 and stabbed 

deeply into the ground. 

I was stunned. The two turned around

 and stared 

at me coldl

y

. 

T

hey cried,

“You

’re courting

 death!” 

“

Screw

 you!”

After a short trot, 

Senior Shu

 suddenly jumped and moved through the air

. He kicked 

the black freak

’s neck

. 

His kick 

was so full

 of strength that I 

was stunned

. However, the freak wearing black clothes didn’t even 

flinch

. He stood and received 

Senior Shu

’s kick directly. Then, he 

grabbed

Senior Shu

’s leg and hurled him several meters away as 

if

 he was just a sack of rice. 

“Ouch…” 

Senior Shu

 rolled on the ground

. He screamed 

then retreat

ed 

to my side.

“These guys aren’t humans. They are tamed corpses!” 

“What

?

 Tamed corpses?” 

Instinctively, I took a few steps back. The masters in Vietnam and Myanmar could tame

corpses to create monsters

.

 A tamed corpse wasn’t much different from a 

zombie

. Except, the tame corpses had some simple intelligence 

and

 could mimic human movements. The 

most powerful ones

 could even mingle with living people and no one 

w

ould recognize 

them

. 

T

amed corpses first appeared in the Han Dynasty. At first, the tribes in the South used this technique to stop the imperial court forces from the Central Plains. However, with the progress of society, more and more tame masters started to use their taming technique to harm people. Tamed corpses had become evil. 

I had learned about tamed corpses from my grandpa. I had never expected that I would bump into them here. Giving us no time to think, the two tamed corpses started to attack me and 

Senior Shu

 respectively. 

As the Emei Piercer was useless, I had to yank the Sirius Whip

. I 

aimed at the white corpse!

The first whip sounded like it had hit an empty iron barrel.

Black smoke emitted from the corpse 

as

 it shakily hopped 

on

 its spot. 

S

till, the white corpse charged again. Both of his arms aimed at my chest like a pair of giant pincers. 

He

 moved so fast that I couldn’t attack again with my whip. I had to grab his arms instead.

Unexpectedly, my strength was nothing to him. My 

hold

 was shaken off easily. Then, he 

tried to grab at

me 

again. I took a deep breath and 

put my

 power into my right hand to lash at the important acupoint on the corpse’s head. 

But b

efore I could hit him, my arm felt a sharp pain. I reacted fast and retracted my arm. There were a few holes 

that reached

 the bones! Blood immediately gushed, numbing my arm. 

It turned out the corpse’s fingernails suddenly grew as 

long as

 daggers. He had used his fingernails to stab me. 

I wasn’t an equal opponent of this corpse. And now, as my arm was wounded, I couldn’t afford to make 

another wrong

 mov

e

. I gritted my teeth and moved aside before the corpse stormed toward me one more time. At the same time, my other hand lashed the Sirius Whip at the corpse’s back! 

T

hese 

two 

tamed corpses weren’t 

top-tier

one

s. Th

e one in front of me

 moved stiffly, so it couldn’t avoid my lash. It trembled when the Sirius Whip hit him.

It was the chance I was waiting for! Seizing the time while he was shaking continuously, I rushed behind him and directly hit the nape of his neck five or six 

times

. 

According to common knowledge, the nape of the neck was 

a

 fatal 

weakness

 of tamed corpses. The tam

ing

 masters could control the corpse through a wisp of corpse energy or gas they

’d

 stored in the nape of the corpse. When the nape was hit or broken, the corpse energy would be released, which 

would

‘deactivate’

 the corpse

 and

turn

it

 back into a normal corpse. 

After several 

hits

 in a row, the white corpse

’s 

nape was broken. I could see 

a

 wisp of white corpse gas lingering there. 

After hitting the last whip, I tried to ignore the heart-piercing pain in 

my

 right arm

 as I brought 

two fingers together to make a sword. I then 

directly

 stabbed my fingers into the 

center of his

 nape! 

Shsss! 

As soon as my fingers poked through it, the white gas sizzled like hot iron

 making contact with

 cold water.

A horrible pain was sent to me through my fingers

.

 I instinctively retracted my hand

 and

 checked my fingers. There were so many blisters

!

The white corpse slowly turned to see me with 

his

 bloodshot eyes.

Suddenly, he opened his mouth and roared. 

“I

 know you’

re a 

freaking

 fox

. Can you stop screaming now?!

” I cursed then ran toward the Emei Piercer stabbed into the ground. 

The white corpse followed me. 

However

, since I had 

released

 his corpse energy, his move

ments

 were slowed down. 

When I reached for the Emei Pierce, I deliberately acted as though I was about to fall. The white corpse bought it. He directly leaned forward with his arms 

thrust 

out like a pair of sickles, aim

ing

 at my chest. 

When he was about to reach me, I rolled a few meters away and jumped up like a koi carp jumping out of the water. 

Then, I 

directly stabbed the Emei Piercer into the wisp of corpse gas. 

“Shsss…” 

The white corpse froze then fell. I stirred the Emei Piercer inside the corpse’s nape as I was afraid that it would move again. After I confirmed that the corpse gas had already vanished into the air, I heaved a sigh of relief. 

Then, the corpse wearing white garments 

transformed

 at a speed the naked eye could observe. In the end, it had become a fox with white fur.

I was stunned, but 

soon

, I got it. It was a fox spirit that could 

shapeshift

 into

 a

 human form

. I

ts corpse was made into a tamed corpse after it died. That

 wa

s why I had heard the fox cry! 

I stopped watching the fox spirit

 and turned 

to see 

Senior Shu

. 

He

 was using the Holy Mother Scepter to fight against the black corpse. No one had the upper hand yet. However, I could see that 

Senior Shu

 had many chances to stab the Holy Mother Scepter into the corpse’s nape,

but he didn’t… 

I hesitated for a while

 before

 grabb

ing

 the Emei Piercer

 and dashing 

toward them. Although I knew I couldn’t 

deal

 a lot of 

damage to the

 corpse, I could distract him for a while. 

Soon, the black corpse 

had

 the 

lower hand

 as the two of us were attacking him. He turned and rushed into the forest.

His movement

exposed

 his nape to us. I 

raised

 the Emei Piercer

 and was 

about to 

hit

 him. 

However, Senior Shu

 grabbed my arm

 and muttered

, “

A

fter him.” 

“Understood!”

I read 

Senior Shu

’s 

mind

. Even if we 

dealt with

 the two tamed corpses here, we 

w

ouldn’t be able to solve the problem thoroughly. The real trouble-maker was the tam

ing

 master hiding in the dark. 

That person must know about us already. We needed to get him as soon as possible. 

Taming

 masters were the sort of people that would take revenge for 

a

 trivial offense. As we had messed with his business and killed his tamed corpse, we had a big grudge against us now! 

The black corpse ran slowly at first. However, as soon as he got deep into the forest, he accelerated. Fortunately, 

Senior Shu

 and I were also good at running. We didn’t lose track of him. 

The corpse was running toward the other flank of Mount Horse Saddle, which was on the opposite side 

of

 the path we had taken to get to the mountain. Inadvertently, we

’d

 left Mount Horse Saddle to an unknown mountain flank. 

At this time, t

he corpse wearing black clothes had slowed down. 

H

e also turned around to check on us from time to time

, just a

s if he wanted to 

see if we were still

 following him

.

Senior Shu

 thought for a short while then directly sped up. 

Strangely, the corpse stopped running. As we came closer to him, we saw a cold, dark smirk on his face. His sharp teeth sparkled coldly, which looked 

rather

 eerie.

I didn’t know why, but I felt restless and worried. A bad premonition arose 

in

 my heart. I grabbed 

Senior Shu

’s arm

. 

“Something’s wrong.” 

“

Huh

?” 

Senior Shu

 was bewildered. Then, he acted as though nothing had happened

 and continued

 to approach the corpse. However, he didn’t let go of my arm while 

sniffing around

. 

After 

we had walked

 dozens of meters, 

Senior Shu

’s arm suddenly shook. I looked at him and saw he 

had

 a layer of cold sweat on his forehead. 

“Don’t panic. On three, we jump. Understand?” 

Senior Shu

’s gaze didn’t leave the black corpse when he hurriedly talked to me. I didn’t know what he had found, but I nodded to show him that I got it.
