Chapter 1426: Chapter 1011, The Way to Kill Him_2

"Alright!" Wu Heng nodded.

The Lady turned back and said, "Light the fire."

Whoosh~!

The flames rose instantly, and a series of ’crackling’ explosions came from within the container, the heat waves twisting the air.

The Lady possessed him and began to operate the cultivation technique.

The runes on his body lit up, and the sinister energy that rose around him turned into black snakes, drilling into his body.

After running through it once, the Lady separated from his body and said, "Next, it’s up to you."

Wu Heng followed the sensation he just had and channeled his energy on his own, with every pore in his body autonomously inhaling and exhaling the sinister energy.

Meanwhile, far away, the women and ghosts from the household watched the situation from a distance, occasionally bowing their heads to exchange a few words.

...

The Lady controlled the puppet to return.

The Witch Viola, wearing a coat, waited inside the building, "Lady!"

The maids in the household all followed suit by calling her Lady, but only Xiao Xiao addressed her as Lady in one breath.

"Take off your clothes!" the Lady said directly.

Having been informed beforehand, Viola did not hesitate too much and removed her clothes. The Lady drew the first phase of the Mysterious Bird Burning Pattern on her.

Once the runes were completed, Viola put on her clothes and walked out.

She sat cross-legged at the spot of the first phase.

The Lady explained the operation of the cultivation technique once more, and as the flames rose, the absorption of the spreading thermal energy began.

The surrounding energy gathered towards Viola.

The Lady raised a brow.

Perhaps due to being a witch, with her abilities originating from a contract made amidst great fires and smoke demons, the heat energy gathering around did not show any signs of rejection or obstruction.

It was rapidly absorbed.

The front and back courtyards released immense energy through two different flames.

The others watched for a while from outside, then dispersed to attend to their own matters.

...

In the afternoon.

The flames in the nine furnaces extinguished, and the steaming heat gradually dissipated.

Wu Heng stepped out from the center, his bones emitting a subtle ’creaking’ sound, as if every inch of his joints were making noises, heavy yet with resilience.

The Lady floated close and asked, "How do you feel?"

"It’s like my bones are filled with lead, sore and heavy..." Wu Heng said as he walked.

"This means it’s working. Let’s leave it at this for today and continue tomorrow," the Lady said following him.

After stepping out of the range, skeletons began cleaning up the remnants with tools.

He walked a distance forward.

Wu Heng’s eyes turned to the other bonfire’s position, where Viola sat cross-legged in the flames, her brown hair fluttering with the heat waves.

Her skin displayed the Mysterious Bird Burning Pattern, continuously absorbing the energy gathered around.

"She adapts well," the Lady commented, "But her speed is definitely not as fast as yours, it will likely take some time to break through the first segment."

"As long as it’s not dangerous." Wu Heng took another glance before heading into the living room.

He chatted with some of the maids for a couple of minutes upstairs before taking a shower.

After changing into clean clothes, he entered the study.

Xiao Xiao and Bella were downstairs, and in the room, the Lady and Glenda were discussing matters concerning a pregnant woman.

Upon seeing him enter,

the Lady said, "According to the time the dream passage opened yesterday, there’s about another hour or so."

Wu Heng nodded, dried his hair with a towel, and then took out his phone to dial Lilith’s number.

The two ghosts hovered behind him.

After two rings, the call connected, and switching to a video call, Lilith’s cold face appeared on the screen, "What’s the matter?"

Lilith inquired calmly.

Wu Heng got straight to the point, "I’m asking about a Special Item."

Lilith was in charge of intelligence work, and if she didn’t know about the Special Item, further inquiry would be needed regarding the Celt Royal Family’s prisoner information.

"Hmm, go ahead," Lilith said, taking a sip of tea.

Wu Heng recalled and said, "Its appearance is like a tumor, and it seems its function is to allow a pregnant woman to give birth to a ghost again."

"That Special Item from the Celt Kingdom?" Lilith’s eyes narrowed slightly, "Why are you asking about this Special Item?"

"You know? I got some news and wanted to understand if interrupting the Special Item’s effect halfway would harm the pregnant woman," Wu Heng said directly.

Apparently, Lilith’s intelligence network was quite extensive.

Though no information was found on the Holy Court obtaining the Special Item, the Item’s existence was known.

"Has anyone used that Special Item?" Lilith didn’t answer directly and instead asked.

Wu Heng responded with a grunt, not concealing anything.

Lilith furrowed her brow, seemingly pondering the matter, then said, "The Holy Court got their hands on this Special Item, trying to resurrect Saidu?"

"This matter isn’t something you should handle, I’ll take care of it. Do you know how to nullify this Special Item?" Wu Heng continued.

It’s not hard to speculate; for Wu Heng, such a hero, to cautiously seek a method.

Considering recent events and some rumors, coupled with the fact that Wu Heng must disrupt the other party’s resurrection, it’s no ordinary force, only the Holy Court’s Saidu.

That previous religious leader who willingly returned to the Holy Court.

Lilith put down her teacup, closed her eyes to recall, and then said, "The Special Item is named ’Blood Worm Tumor,’ a rare Special Item; the effect is as you said, it allows a ghost to be reborn, with the side effect that the pregnant woman’s life force and the baby’s soul are used as nourishment."

Pausing slightly, she continued, "There are three methods, the first is transfer to another carrier, you can find a pregnant animal to take over; the second is to forcibly peel it off, ensuring you make ample preparations beforehand.

The last one is my conjecture... If the ghost being resurrected revives through the baby, perhaps directly killing the other party’s soul might work, but I’m not certain."

Wu Heng nodded, "Alright, I’ll notify you once there’s a result."

Lilith replied seriously, "You don’t have to handle it personally, provide me with the detailed information, and I’ll have the association deal with it."
