Chapter 1323: Chapter 150: Bizarre Resurrection

On the ground, blood pooled and spread. Hu Linglong lay in the blood, her chest no longer rising and falling, her breath completely gone.

Fan Zhen took the Faith Statue from her body, then chopped off Hu Linglong’s right palm with another stroke of his blade. After finishing all this, the Divine Soldiers and Generals quickly left.

The smell of fresh blood and corpse drew several bold Night Owls.

They flapped their wings and landed on the still-warm corpse.

One of the Night Owls aimed at Hu Linglong’s heart and pecked down viciously.

Who would have thought that at that very moment, the corpse on the ground suddenly moved, and a hand shot up and clamped down hard on that Night Owl’s neck.

With a crack, the Night Owl barely struggled a few times before its bones shattered; it was actually strangled to death alive.

Flinging the Night Owl aside, Hu Linglong sat up. The blood on her body had yet to coagulate, and the wound of her severed right hand was even more ghastly to behold.

"Great Witch Doctor, Yu Shang, you two old undying bastards actually dared to burn the bridge after crossing it. Luckily I, Hu Linglong, am no idiot." Hu Linglong spat, then raised her intact left hand.

She wiped her left hand on the ground. On her left wrist, a mark like a tattoo had appeared. Seeing that mark, light returned to Hu Linglong’s eyes.

She quickly placed her left hand on her injured right arm, and just like the countless times she had treated herself at the Heavenly Fox Temple over the past month, a Magic Wave rippled from Hu Linglong’s left hand. On what had originally been chopped off, there came a sickening sound of flesh squirming.

After that nauseating sound of new flesh growing, Hu Linglong’s severed hand miraculously regenerated in less than 15 minutes.

The newly grown right hand, aside from being slightly paler than a normal skin tone, was no different from before.

"Great Witch Doctor, this time I really have to thank you for your Witch Artifact. You’d never have thought the Witch Artifact engraved on my right hand would end up on my left, would you?" A flush returned to Hu Linglong’s face. She looked at her left hand, then, satisfied, at her right hand.

After Hu Linglong went north, the Great Witch Doctor, while dispatching Divine Soldiers and Generals, also gave her another powerful weapon—that mysterious Witch Artifact that had instantly pushed Hu Linglong up to the level of a Divine Doctor.

Hu Linglong didn’t know exactly what this Witch Artifact was, and the Great Witch Doctor was unwilling to tell her too much. But after the Divine General sealed this Witch Artifact into Hu Linglong’s right hand in the form of a tattoo, Hu Linglong was no longer the same as before.

After obtaining the Witch Artifact, Hu Linglong only needed to use her right hand and could treat almost any illness.

It was also because of this unknown Witch Artifact that Hu Linglong was able to make those ignorant people of the Sky Fox Tribe believe she was the true Holy Daughter.

All of this had been arranged in advance by the Great Witch Doctor.

If not for the fact that this time, Hu Linglong suddenly faced Wolf Wind Disease and couldn’t get past her own psychological barrier, she might have been able to keep using this Witch Artifact to conceal her status as a fake.

When Hu Linglong used the Witch Artifact, she had already discovered its wonder.

She suddenly understood that this Witch Artifact was very likely the root reason the Great Witch Doctor had gained such a lofty position in the Sky Fox Tribe over the years.

Hu Linglong was narrow-minded and greedy by nature. Having seen the benefits of this Witch Artifact, how could she not covet it?

Day and night she wanted to make it her own, but because she feared the Great Witch Doctor and the Divine Soldiers and Generals at his side, she had never dared to act.

Not until the eve of leaving Fengyou City, when the Divine Soldiers and Generals were occupied monitoring the movements of the Hell Demon Wolf Tribe and neglected to keep an eye on Hu Linglong, did she finally find her chance.

Hu Linglong quietly dug out, flesh and all, the mysterious Witch Artifact brand that had originally been embedded in her right hand, and implanted it into her left hand.

She then used a good flesh-regenerating medicine. After the wound on her right hand healed, she deliberately carved a tattoo almost identical to the original. Everything was done seamlessly.

Hu Linglong had never expected that this thoughtless move of hers would end up saving her life.

After killing Hu Linglong, Fan Zhen, according to the Great Witch Doctor’s orders, took her right hand back as well. He hadn’t noticed that the Divine-level Witch Artifact tattoo on Hu Linglong’s right hand, just like she herself, was a fake.

Thinking back on it afterward, Hu Linglong still felt a chill, and became even more aware of the viciousness of the Great Witch Doctor and the others.

"They’ve snatched away the Faith Statue. That means Yu Shang now has two Faith Statues. This time, the position of Holy Daughter will definitely be hers. The Great Witch Doctor and Yu Shang are both ruthless characters. If they find out I’m still alive and that I switched the Witch Artifact, they definitely won’t let me go." Hu Linglong was seething with hatred, but she didn’t dare return to the Sky Fox Tribe to expose their crimes. After weighing her options, she decided not to go back to the Hu Capital for now.

Let Yun Sheng and Yu Shang, those two women, fight it out among themselves. If Yun Sheng gets killed, so much the better.

Hu Linglong touched her own cheek, and suddenly thought of something. Her lips curled up, revealing a sinister smile.

Staggering to her feet, Hu Linglong glanced at the sky to determine her bearings, then fled in the direction of the Jiuluan Tribe.

The Divine General, carrying the Faith Statue, rushed back to the Witch Doctor Tower after several days of hard travel and finally arrived ten days later.

Inside the Witch Doctor Tower, Yu Shang and the Great Witch Doctor were already waiting.

In the past two-plus months, with the experience she had accumulated from her former days as Holy Daughter and with Corpse Puppetry, Yu Shang had gained the trust of many citizens in the southern part of the Sky Fox Tribe Country.

Her Faith Statue was already brimming with Power of Faith.

"Great Witch Doctor, Lady Yu Shang, these are the Faith Statue and Witch Artifact retrieved from Hu Linglong." The Divine General gave a slight bow and handed the Faith Statue and Hu Linglong’s right hand to Yu Shang and the Great Witch Doctor respectively.

"Hu Linglong at least served some purpose in death. This time, she can be considered to have returned fully loaded." Yu Shang looked at the Faith Statue, and saw that inside, the Power of Faith was densely packed, far too numerous to count.

She hadn’t expected that by relying on the Witch Artifact, Hu Linglong could actually collect that much Power of Faith—by the look of it, not much less than Yu Shang’s own harvest in the south.

However, since the Faith Statue was already in her hands, the Power of Faith inside naturally belonged to her.

It was said that in the last few days, Yun Sheng had finally managed to gain the trust of the common folk around Fengyou City. Unfortunately, only a few short days remained. Even if Yun Sheng possessed heaven-defying abilities, she could no longer turn the tide.

This time, she refused to believe Yun Sheng would not lose. Thinking of this, a treacherous, triumphant smile of someone whose plot had succeeded surfaced on Yu Shang’s bewitching face.

She could hardly wait to see Yun Sheng suffer a miserable defeat before her, utterly crushed and disappointed.
