The infant withered away at a visible speed, and a bright red blood orb appeared above his body.
The state preceptor constantly changed his hand positions and directions, and twenty blood orbs trembled and converged at the center of the blood curse, becoming one and hovering in front of him.
The state preceptor let out a eerie cackle, licked his teeth, and swallowed the blood orb.
“Chirp chirp.”
A bird flew over the Cold Palace, upon seeing the blood curse, it let out a terrified, shrill chirp.
“Hmph.”
The state preceptor’s eyes flashed coldly, his right hand flickered with spiritual power, which transformed into a giant hand stretching out into the sky, squeezing it into a fog of blood with just a pinch of his two fingers.

“Using the blood of infants to practice dark arts in a blood sacrifice and utterly dehumanizing oneself, devoid of all conscience.”
“It’s a shame that we can only hook the souls of the dead, not the living spirits, otherwise, this Ghost Envoy really wants to do a good deed, hook his soul away and rid the world of this disaster.”
“He will eventually fall into our hands, at that time, we will throw him into the eighteen layers of Hell, let him taste being gnawed by evil spirits, and the feeling of being burned by flames.”
“After the burning, throw him into the Path of Beasts, so that he may reincarnate as a mouse in his next life, enduring the scorn and disgust of the world.”
“Yes, just do it like this. He has killed hundreds of infants in half a year, we have run ourselves ragged, he cannot be treated leniently.”
Under the dark night, two figures, one black and one white, wavering, gradually approached the Cold Palace.
The state preceptor sensed a disturbance in the void and subconsciously glanced towards the direction of the two ghosts, his eyes flickering uncertainly.
In a few moments, he stood up from the ground, glanced at the infant who had turned into a mummy, and disappeared on the spot with a flash.
A pitch-black Soul Hook Lock swung around the blood curse formation like a snake, hooking out the souls of all the infants.
The Black and White Impermanence came and went hastily, dragging a long string of spirits back to the Ghost Realm, disappearing into the void.
Not long after the two ghosts left, the state preceptor reappeared in the Cold Palace, throwing out a Fire Spirit Talisman, and set all the corpses of the infants on fire, burning the bodies to cover his tracks.

Lin Qingluo was clad in black armour, his long hair as dark as ink, leading fifty thousand light cavalry galloping on an endless plain.
The distance of a hundred miles, arrived in two days.
By the evening, they crossed a low hill and Jiankang City Tower could be seen in the distance.
“Master, there are only twenty thousand garrisoned troops in Jiankang City. We can breach the city gate in one fell swoop and capture the Beiqi Monarch alive.”
Little Kingfisher was particularly excited on the eve of the battle, gliding low above the front line of the fifty thousand light cavalry, guiding the way for her master.
“The army travelled overnight, both men and horses are tired, they need to rest.”
Lin Qingluo had calculated plans and immediately ordered the army to stop marching, taking a short rest.
“Yin’er, go scout the city. Guide the way for Master.”
Little Kingfisher couldn’t rest, fluttering her small wings, circling above her master’s head.
“Check the whereabouts of the state preceptor.”
Lin Qingluo had meticulous thoughts. On the eve of the big battle, his mind was extraordinarily clear.
“Alright.”
Upon receiving the explicit instructions, Little Kingfisher was instantly energised, flying away rapidly like lightning.

“Coo coo.”
A carrier pigeon flew out of Jiankang City, circling over the army.
One of Ji Liuyun’s accompanying guards whistled loudly, calling the pigeon.
“Coo coo.”
The carrier pigeon, hearing the commands, followed the sound, landing on the guard’s wrist.
The guard removed a note from the bamboo tube tied to the pigeon’s right leg and handed it to Ji Liuyun.
Ji Liuyun read the note quickly, his eyes lighting up with joy. He rolled up the note, spurred his horse forward, and arrived beside Lin Qingluo.
