Zhong Kui's Diary
"Common point?" I frowned and pondered for a while, unable to find any similarities among the three of us, let alone any common ground.
"You all have the energy of Devouring Soul within you," Gugu said slowly.
"Devouring Soul?" I exclaimed softly.
Suddenly, I remembered that Devouring Soul had first possessed Fatty, and later, by chance, I absorbed the Devouring Soul from Fatty, making it a part of my own energy. As for Fatty, he must still have some residual Devouring Soul energy left in him.
As for Ghost Zombie, that's even more obvious; his cultivation of Devouring Earth is based on the energy of Devouring Soul. He even killed two Devouring Souls for this purpose.
"That's right, Devouring Soul!" Gugu said with a hoarse voice. "Those strong Primordial Yang women will have their bodies contaminated with some Devouring Energy after coming into contact with you. If this contaminated Primordial Yang then has relations with Ghost Zombie, it can quickly heal his injuries."
"Fatty has had relations with those women, but I haven't," I felt somewhat wronged.
"How can the Devouring Energy in you compare to that of Fatty? Just by touching their lower bodies, the energy can merge with their Primordial Yang," Ancient Gu Yi said without any embarrassment about being a woman.
"Damn, this is so profound," I cursed and then asked, "What about you? How did you recover your powers?"
"I naturally practiced Yin-Yang Dual Cultivation. After attending an outer circle women's gathering, the Primordial Yang I absorbed barely allowed me to recover to the level of a Master Level. However, the powers at the Master Level are not very useful because although Ghost Zombie is injured, his powers can still reach the Master-Level. I could still be killed by him." Gugu revealed a cunning smile: "So, I set up a trap and taught Hui a technique while placing a magic array on her. This made Ghost Zombie mistakenly believe that Hui was an exceptional strong Primordial Yang woman. When he had relations with Hui, the magic array would activate and leave a mark in his Primordial Yang. From then on, whenever he had relations with women, he would go into a frenzy and directly kill them. Naturally, if the woman dies, there will be no more Primordial Yang for him to absorb."
"You planned such bloody and violent acts of murder. It's surprising that Hui still sees you as a good sister while you exploit her like this," I looked at Gugu with disdain.
"When it comes to life and death, even good sisters can only be sacrificed," Gugu laughed nonchalantly. "After doing all this, I sneaked back into Star City, avoiding Ghost Zombie while absorbing men's Primordial Yang through blind dates. After all, this way is the least conspicuous; with so many people going on blind dates and renting rooms, how could Ghost Zombie know which one is me?"
I knew there was no point in arguing with her on this matter, so I changed the subject and asked, "Then why do you want to kill Xie Mengfei?"
"Not just Xie Mengfei, but Zhang Huihui was also killed by me," Gugu said calmly as she looked at me.
"Damn, are you out of your mind?" I cursed.
"My life was at stake; I don't think I did anything wrong," Gugu sneered and continued, "I originally thought that once the Ghost Zombie fell into my trap, he wouldn't be able to absorb Primordial Yang anymore. If he wanted to recover to Grandmaster level, he would have to rely on his own cultivation to gradually regain his power. But I don't know who taught him the Divine Farmer's Protection spell. After learning this spell, the Ghost Zombie can resurrect those strong Primordial Yang women and then absorb their Primordial Yang."
"Wait, isn't the Divine Farmer's Protection something only humans can cultivate? How can a Ghost Zombie or Demon learn it?" I asked, puzzled.
"That's because he can switch between human and Demon forms, allowing him to learn this spell. It was also because someone guided him that the Ghost Zombie came to Star City and learned that I was looking for men through matchmaking to recover my power. So, he instructed Sister Rong to establish a Matchmaker organization to find various strong Primordial Yang women while also searching for me," Gugu explained slowly.
"What does this have to do with you killing Xie Mengfei and Zhang Huihui?" I demanded angrily.
"Just let me finish," Gugu shot me a glance. "After having relations with Li Yingying, the Ghost Zombie discovered that strong Primordial Yang women he came into contact with could help him recover quickly. He had Sister Rong arrange for those women to meet you. However, at that time, his Shennong Protection Spell wasn't very skilled, and Li Yingying ended up being ravaged and killed on the spot, so he couldn't absorb her Primordial Yang... It wasn't until the sixth woman, Zhang Huihui, that the Ghost Zombie was able to skillfully use Divine Farmer's Protection to revive her and absorb her Primordial Yang. So if nothing unexpected happens, all he needs is to have relations with Zhang Huihui a few more times to heal his injuries."
"And then?" I frowned and asked.
"I certainly wouldn't let such a thing happen; I had to take action and kill Zhang Huihui," Gugu raised an eyebrow at me as if my question was foolish.
"If that's the case, why not kill Zhao Bingbing? Isn't she also a strong Primordial Yang woman?" I scoffed.
"That's because she has a good bodyguard," Gugu sighed.
"A good bodyguard? Your Sister Sun?" I scoffed again. "She can't even beat me; how could she pose any threat to you?"
"You must know why I'm afraid of Li Zan," Gugu didn't answer my question but instead changed the subject.
"Well, that's because Li Zan has a Ruby Pendant with a magic circle inside." I frowned and asked, "You? Sister Sun also has a Ruby Pendant like that?"
"Yes, but Sister Sun's pendant is a jade Buddha." Gugu nodded and continued, "The night Zhao Bingbing went out for late-night snacks with you, Sister Sun was sent to investigate your situation. When Zhao Bingbing returned to the hotel completely drunk, Sister Sun had not yet made it back. At that moment, you had already left the hotel, which gave Ghost Zombie the opportunity to approach and absorb Zhao Bingbing's Primordial Yang. By the time I realized what was happening and tried to silence her, Sister Sun had already returned, and I lost my chance."
"So that's how it was," I said, enlightened.
"Originally, Ghost Zombie thought that by having relations with Zhao Bingbing multiple times, he could restore his abilities. However, like me, he was wary of Sister Sun's pendant since he hadn't reached Grandmaster Level. Yet he couldn't resist such a tempting target and resorted to certain means to keep Zhao Bingbing in Star City, hoping to take advantage of the situation when Sister Sun wasn't around." Gugu sneered, "Naturally, I wouldn't let him have his way. As long as Ghost Zombie used tricks to distract Sister Sun, I would find a way to bring her back."
No wonder Zhao Bingbing wanted to leave Star City but later changed her mind; it all makes sense now.
"Ghost Zombie knew I was behind this but couldn't figure out where I was. The two of them were at a stalemate. However, I knew I was dancing on the edge of a cliff; one misstep could lead to disaster." Gugu sighed bitterly, "That’s not even the worst part; there’s still a mysterious person behind all this pushing things along."
"A mysterious person?" I gasped. Damn it, you two have already made such a mess of things, and there's still someone else behind it?
"That's right. Initially, I wasn't sure either, but after Ghost Zombie learned the Divine Farmer's Protection Spell, it became clear that someone was helping him." Gugu's face turned pale. "This person must be at least a Grandmaster-level Expert; they might even be at Soul Level."
"Damn, if it's Soul Level, they could just kill you directly without needing to teach Ghost Zombie the Shennong Protection Spell," I pointed out.
"I thought so too. That's why I've focused my attention on the existing Grandmaster Level experts. You probably know that among the current Grandmaster Level experts, besides you and me, the only other human Grandmaster is Xiao Jue." Gugu's expression grew serious. "I suspect that Xiao Jue is behind all of this."
"You’re talking nonsense!" I shouted angrily. "He's my grandfather; don't make wild accusations."
Gugu sighed helplessly. "Zheng Nan, I'm just theorizing. But tell me, who else could cast the human ultimate technique Divine Farmer's Protection?"
I was left speechless.
"Alright, let's not dwell on that. When Ghost Zombie discovered your contact with Xie Mengfei, he shifted his focus, and naturally, I began to pay attention to Xie Mengfei as well. Ghost Zombie initially intended to lure you away; as long as you had any interaction with Xie Mengfei, he would impersonate Zhao Bingbing to call for help and distract you. Your phone was tampered with by him." Gugu cleared his throat and continued, "As for me, I could only fabricate stories to get in touch with Li Jin. In case something happened, I needed to disguise myself as security to silence anyone involved. For such a life-threatening matter, I had to be cautious and prepare in advance."
"So that's how it is. I finally understand the sequence of events," I frowned and said. "But there's still one thing I'm unclear about: why didn't you call me? If you had told me earlier, Ghost Zombie hadn't regained Grandmaster Level at that time; he wouldn't have been a match for me."
Gugu smiled wryly again. "First of all, I was already on high alert and didn't trust anyone. It was only when I was out of options that I thought of contacting you because among all these people, you were the only one uninterested in the Yin-Yang Ancient Coin."
I snorted softly. "And the second reason?"
"The second reason is that Ghost Zombie's Devouring Earth has another function: it can track the source of signals. If I called you for more than three seconds, he would be able to trace my location. So, I couldn't dare to call you or even linger around you too much." Gugu sighed. "Then, when you were in contact with Xie Mengfei's lower body, Ghost Zombie immediately called to distract you. At that moment, I took the risk of being discovered by Ghost Zombie to call you, but unfortunately, the signal was poor; just as I said 'lure the tiger away from its mountain,' the call dropped, and you directly blacklisted my number."
Damn, so the call I received in the elevator was actually from Gugu. I hadn't heard it clearly at all; I misheard Gugu's 'lure the tiger away from its mountain' as something about 'Li Mountain,' thinking it was an advertisement for a property in Li Mountain Mansion. I could only smile wryly and ask, "What happened next?"
"When Ghost Zombie absorbed Primordial Yang from Xie Mengfei, my only option was to find a chance to kill Xie Mengfei so that Ghost Zombie wouldn't have further contact with her." Gugu frowned. "I could sense that if he had two more encounters with Xie Mengfei, he would definitely recover to Grandmaster Level. So even though I knew you were back with Xie Mengfei, I had to take the risk and eliminate her."
"Actually, you didn't need to take such risks," I sighed. "Because at that moment, Ghost Zombie had already been killed in a car accident."
"How is that possible?" Gugu reacted just like I did when I heard this news, shouting in disbelief.
