In the Mountain Ghost Sect of the Southern Chu Commandery.

Early in the morning, when the sun had just risen, the disciples of the Mountain Ghost Sect gathered in the main hall. Seven or eight elders stood under the statue of a mountain ghost and glared angrily at the handsome young man in the middle of the hall, who was imprisoned in a cage and was unconscious.

"Hmph! Outer disciple Chen Xiaomu barged into the Treasure Pavilion without permission and knocked over the giant bronze cauldron. He even attracted the Earthshaking Tiger Beast, causing the spirit medicine that our Mountain Ghost Sect has stored for hundreds of years to be destroyed..." The First Elder, whose face was filled with anger, clenched his teeth and announced his decision to punish Chen Xiaomu.

The disciples of the Ghost Sect who surrounded the cage had already started discussing among themselves.

"This fool probably also knows that he got into big trouble, so he pretended to be in a coma and wanted to muddle through the punishment!" A disciple of the Mountain Ghost Sect with a hooked nose and gloomy eyes glanced at Chen Xiaomu, who was locked in a cage, and sneered with a smile.

"With his cowardly personality, it's hard to say if he's really scared out of his wits." Another disciple of the Mountain Ghost Sect said with a gloating smile.

On the right side of the cage, a white-dressed girl with a delicate figure and a bright moon-like face was looking at the unconscious young man with a worried face. She whispered, "Xiao Mo, wake up..."

She was very clear that once the First Elder announced the punishment decision, the dust would really fall. At that time, even if Old Master Chen came in person, it would be of no use. For now, only Chen Xiaofei was honest. All the losses of the Mountain Ghost Sect would be compensated by the Chen family. However, Chen Xiaofei caused too much trouble this time. Even if their family had a good relationship with the Chen family, they did not dare to make a decision on their own.

There was a never-ending stream of mockery and mockery in Chen Changsheng's ears.

After a while, Chen Changsheng slowly opened his eyes and looked blankly at the scene in front of him and the strange faces around him. He murmured, "I'm still alive? Where am I?"

He clearly remembered that he was originally the Fifth Young Master of the Chen family in the Divine Immortal Realm. He was framed and stained the innocence of the little princess in the City Lord's Mansion. Before he could defend himself, he was killed by the group of elders in the Divine Body Realm.

"Why is he here?"

In an instant, countless doubts appeared in Chen Changsheng's mind. Even though his cultivation had reached the sixth level of the Nirvana Stage in his previous life, his talent was even more stunning. He, who was known as the top of the Ten Prodigies of the Heavens, was also lost in thought.

"Haha, does this idiot pretend to be in a coma and pretend to lose his memory again? Does he really think that pretending to be crazy can fool people and avoid punishment?" The grim-faced young man looked at Chen Changsheng with a mocking look and sneered.

Standing on the right side of the cage, the girl in a white dress also stared at Chen Changsheng with shame and anger. She said anxiously, "Xiao Mo, don't make trouble. Hurry up and plead with the Sect Leader. Tell her that the Chens will compensate all the losses of the Mountain Ghost Sect. Otherwise, it will be too late when the First Elder orders to imprison you in the cold pond."

"Compensation? A mere Chen Clan can afford the loss of the Mountain Ghost Sect?" A disciple of the Mountain Ghost Sect rolled his eyes and asked.

"Wuyang, you'd better not get involved in this matter. Otherwise, even if you're the Seventh Elder's pro-disciple, you'll be implicated. What's more, if Eldest Senior Brother knows that you're implicated because of him, then even if he flees to the ends of the earth, he won't be able to avoid Eldest Senior Brother's Life-chasing Sword." The grim-faced youth laughed sinisterly.

"What does my business have to do with him?" Yan Wuyang's face turned cold. Obviously, he was very resistant to the Eldest Senior Brother mentioned by the young man. He said in a low voice, "The Chens can't afford the compensation, and there is also the Yans."

"The Yan family?"

The grim-faced youth clicked his tongue and said with an evil smile, "As far as I know, the wager of the Mountain Ghost Sect and the Misty Rain Sword Pavilion this time is a dangerous place in the back of the mountain. Not to mention the Chens and the Yans, even if the entire treasury of the imperial family of the Great Chu is emptied, I'm afraid it's not enough to compensate for the loss of the Mountain Ghost Sect this time!"

Yan Wuyang was silent for a while. As the true disciple of the Mountain Ghost Sect, he naturally knew that the reason why the sect took out the spiritual herbs was to lure out the mountain ghosts and fierce beasts in the dangerous area of the back mountain and win the bet of the Misty Rain Sword Pavilion. If they lost the dangerous area of the back mountain where there were many mountain ghosts and fierce beasts, could this sect still be called the Mountain Ghost Sect without the source of the mountain ghosts?

In other words, the trouble that Chen Xiaofei had caused was undoubtedly the destruction of the foundation of the entire Mountain Ghost Sect. Not to mention the two secular families, even the royal family of the Southern Chu would not be able to make up for such a huge loss to the Mountain Ghost Sect.

Chen Changsheng, who had been listening to the conversation between the few people around him, vaguely sensed a hint of something. Just as he was about to ask, he felt his sense of perception tremble. memory fragments that blotted out the sky rushed in like a tide.

"Reincarnating by taking possession of me?"

There were also some memory fragments. Even though he was knowledgeable, he, who was known as the top of the Ten Prodigies in the Immortal Realm, was shocked and scared. He didn't expect that such a mysterious thing as 'taking possession' would happen to him. He thought that he would die without a doubt, but he didn't die from a great disaster?

However, the joy that was hard to hide had just risen. When he finished reading all the memory fragments, he fell into the ice cave in an instant. His face turned out to be a strange look of confusion, astonishment, and dullness. He couldn't help saying, "The Calamity King?"

Chen Xiaomu.

A year ago, the legitimate son of the Chen family of the Southern Chu Commandery was sent to the Mountain Ghost Sect...

Even Chen Changsheng didn't know how to describe Chen Xiaofei, a natural broom star.

Within a year, he had committed no less than 20 big and small troubles in the Mountain Ghost Sect. If it weren't for the old Chen Family and the Mountain Ghost Sect, he would have been expelled from the sect.

However, two hours ago, this guy even made a big mistake. He was chased to the Treasure Pavilion by an Earthsplitting Tiger in the Seethrough Realm. He knocked over the giant bronze tripod and prepared to use it to lure the spiritual herbs of the mountain ghosts and fierce beasts. In the end, all the spiritual herbs were swallowed up by the Earthsplitting Tiger.

The Great Elder, who was standing under the statue of the Mountain Ghost, announced the twenty crimes that Chen Xiaofei had committed in the Mountain Ghost Sect. Then, he said coldly, "The Sect Leader has forbidden us to imprison Chen Xiaomu in a cold pond for fifty years from now on. No one is allowed to visit her or release her without permission..."

"Cold pond water prison? Fifty years?"

Hearing such a punishment result, many of the disciples of the Mountain Ghost Sect couldn't help but suck in a breath of cool air. One had to know that a soul practitioner in the Spiritual Stage Realm who had refined his life beast soul would only have a lifespan of 160 years. An ordinary human body like Chen Xiaofei who didn't even have a life beast soul would only have a lifespan of 80 years at most.

Being imprisoned for fifty years, it meant that his whole life had been ruined in the cold pond. Moreover, he had a fate worse than death. Although Yan Wuyang, who was standing by the side, had expected that the result would not be too good, his face turned pale when he heard the words "50 years".

On the contrary, Chen Xiaomu, who had always been regarded as a coward, smiled noncommittally. From the fragments of his memory, he knew what had happened. It was nothing more than a bet between the Mountain Ghost Sect and the Misty Rain Sword Pavilion. Would he be able to capture tens of thousands of mountain ghosts and sell them to the Southern Chu Commandery within a month...

Ten thousand?

Chen Changsheng secretly shook his head. The Divine Immortal Realm's Chen Clan could also be considered an overlord. There were millions of scriptures in the 'Book Collection Hall'. He had read a lot of books since he was a child, so his understanding of the habits of various fierce beasts was no match for him, even if all the members of the Mountain Ghost Sect were added together.

What's more, it was absolutely stupid to use the method of burning the spiritual herbs to lure the mountain ghost. He took a deep breath and did not wait for the First Elder's order to imprison him into the water dungeon. He said loudly, "First Elder, if I have a way to help the Mountain Ghost Sect capture thousands of mountain ghosts within a day, can I make up for it?"

"In a day? Catching ten thousand mountain ghosts? This kid must have gone mad!" A disciple of the Mountain Ghost Sect curled his lips and mocked.

It was well-known that although the Mountain Ghost's ranking was not high in the Wordless World of All Beasts, his movements were strange. Coupled with his crafty nature, he was famous for being difficult to capture. Even Chen Changsheng, whose strength and cultivation had reached the sixth level of the Nirvana Stage in his previous life, would not be able to capture ten thousand Mountain Ghosts within a day if he used brute force. Moreover, in everyone's eyes, he was only a mortal body that hadn't been able to capture a single Mountain Ghost for a year.

Not only the disciples around them, but also the seven elders and the head of the Mountain Ghost Sect were shocked by Chen Changsheng's words. They stared blankly at Chen Changsheng, who was full of confidence in the cage.

"Xiao Mo, are you crazy? Catching tens of thousands of mountain ghosts in one day? Even the Sect Leader of the Tao Embryo Realm doesn't dare to make such a statement. Apologize quickly. Otherwise, if you lie to the Sect Leader and the others, even if Grandpa Chen comes in person, he won't be able to save you. At that time, you won't be imprisoned for fifty years." Yan Wuyang said anxiously.

"Sister Wuyang, trust me." Mr. Chen looked at Yan Wuyang beside the cage with a smile.

Having integrated all the memories left behind by Chen Xiaofei, he knew that the girl beside him was the same as him. She was from a well-known family in the Great Chu commandery. Moreover, the Chen family and the Yan family were on good terms. They could be said to be childhood sweethearts. In the past year or so when they were in the Mountain Ghost Sect, it was fortunate that she was there to take care of them. Thus, they would not allow that mortal body of Chen Xiaofei to be bullied and humiliated by the other disciples of the Mountain Ghost Sect. Even the current Chen Changsheng had an indescribable good impression of her.

Feeling the strangeness of Chen Changsheng, Yan Wuyang opened his mouth but eventually fell silent. She found that there seemed to be some changes after waking up from a coma. The snoter who liked to follow her from a young age called "Sister Wuyang" seemed to have some changes.

"Do you really think you have a way to capture ten thousand mountain ghosts in one day? You have to pay the price if you speak your mind." The Grand Elder muttered to himself for a moment, then raised his head to look at Chen Changsheng.

"Of course."

Immortal Chen rubbed his nose and smiled awkwardly. "However, I'm still a mortal now. It's not easy to capture Mountain Ghosts. I can only lure them out of the dangerous place at the back of the mountain. As for capturing them, I'll leave them to the elders and the Sect Masters."

"Hmph! The last spirit medicine of our Mountain Ghost Sect has been swallowed by that beast. What can we use to lure it?" The First Elder glared at Chen Changsheng with a livid face. It was obvious that if he had not lured the Earthshaking Tiger to the Treasure Pavilion, the Mountain Ghost Sect would not have ended up in such a state. In fact, it might even be facing a catastrophe.

"In fact, it's not difficult to lure the mountain ghost out. The method of burning spiritual herbs is the most stupid. If I'm not careful, it will even bring disaster to the entire mountain ghost gate." Chen Changsheng looked at the First Elder righteously. He was very clear that if he didn't remove himself from the matter of destroying the spiritual herbs, he would be charged with this crime forever. Thinking of the humiliation he had suffered in the immortal territory, Chen Changsheng, who had just calmed down, became restless.

A stone stirred up a thousand waves.

However, what he didn't know was that he had just wanted to get rid of her casually, but it caused a stir in the mountain ghost gate.
