"Aren't all corpses the same? Why is there such a difference?"

Wang Qing was also a little curious at this moment.

Liu Yanyan shook her head and said, "It's different. If it's just an ordinary person, they can easily control it with very little Qi."

"But it's different if it's an Outcast. Because after an Outcast dies, there is still residual Qi in their body. This residual Qi will interfere with control, so it usually takes more Qi to control these corpses."

"Of course, these residual Qi will gradually dissipate within a few years after death. However, judging from how old this old man is, I didn't expect him to still be working so hard. I really can't imagine how strong he was when he was alive."

At this moment, Liu Yanyan also became somewhat curious about Zhang Huaiyi's identity.

To have so much vital energy remaining after death, one must not have been an unknown person.

Wang Qing never expected that the art of corpse driving had so many intricacies.

However, with one of the Eight Extraordinary Skills, how could Zhang Huaiyi not be strong in his lifetime?

Wang Qing didn't explain, but urged, "No matter how strong he was before, he still died in the end, didn't he? We just need to complete the mission, nothing else matters."

“That makes sense. Now that we’ve found it, we should head back.”

Liu Yanyan snapped out of her thoughts and nodded.

She then jumped out of the pit, and Zhang Huaiyi also left the pit under her control, leaving only an opened coffin in the pit.

Wang Qing pointed to the corpses around the deep pit and asked.

"What should we do with these bodies?"

"Let them lie back down. They won't move during the day. As long as no one comes here to disturb them at night, they will return to their original state after the Qi dissipates in a couple of days."

What would happen if someone came here at night?

"Then you can only hope for the best."

Liu Yanyan snapped her fingers as she spoke.

The corpses immediately began to move, each jumping into a pit they had just crawled out of and lying down.

Wang Qing wasn't worried about harming innocent people. Knowing the plot well, he knew that the unlucky ones who came here were Zhang Chulan and Feng Baobao. In addition, these corpses weren't very strong. Even if they were ordinary people, as long as they ran fast, they wouldn't be in any danger.

Moreover, given their abilities, they'll be perfectly fine.

As for the area that was dug up.

Wang Qing and Liu Yanyan clearly didn't want to bother burying it back, so they simply left it alone.

"Let's go, let's go back and report."

The two people and their two corpses simply swaggered away from the cemetery.

"After completing the mission, we will be considered members of the Quanxing Sect."

Walking along the forest path, Liu Yanyan seemed quite excited; she hadn't expected the mission to go so smoothly.

Wang Qing smiled slightly and did not deny it.

I took out my phone and checked the time. It was already quite late, so I made the suggestion.

"It's so late, the roads are hard to walk at night. Let's find a hotel in town to rest first, and go back tomorrow when it's light."

"Okay, I'm exhausted from sitting in the car all day."

Liu Yanyan did not refuse Wang Qing's suggestion and readily agreed.

The two drove their van to a hotel in town and checked in.

They simply dumped Zhang Huaiyi's body in the back of the van. The secondhand van Wang Qing bought had privacy windows, so they weren't worried about anyone seeing the body inside.

Wang Qing slept until noon before slowly getting out of bed.

In the years since he returned home, he has naturally changed his daily routine. Apart from going to school, he sleeps until he naturally wakes up during his rest time.

After getting up, Wang Qing called Liu Yanyan, and the two found a nearby restaurant to have lunch.

Only then did he drive the van back home.

……

On the way back, Liu Yanyan contacted Lü Liang, and the two agreed to meet at the abandoned building they had met before.

Wang Qing drove his van and parked it at the foot of the abandoned building.

Liu Yanyan was about to lead Zhang Huaiyi's corpse inside when Wang Qing called out to her, "Wait, are we not going to disguise ourselves this time?"

"Why pretend at a time like this? Once the mission is complete, we'll be on his side."

Liu Yanyan looked at Wang Qing with a strange gaze, as if she were getting revenge for Wang Qing's embarrassment at her in the cemetery.

"Okay, whatever you say will happen."

Wang Qing didn't care at all; he didn't like his previous outfit at all because it was unbearably hot.

He didn't care whether others knew his identity or not. Even if they did, what difference would it make?

As soon as the two men carried Zhang Huaiyi's body inside, they heard Lü Liang's laughter.

"I didn't expect you to act so quickly and actually bring the old man's body back."

Lu Liang walked up to Liu Yanyan and Wang Qing.

Since neither of them was disguised this time, Lü Liang also carefully examined Liu Yanyan.

A hint of contempt flashed in his eyes when he saw that she was just a callow youth.

However, when his gaze fell on Wang Qing, his expression froze for a moment, but he quickly recovered.

He hadn't expected that Liu Yanyan's follower would be such a handsome young man, which made him feel a little jealous.

Finally, Lü Liang turned his gaze to Zhang Xilin.

"As agreed beforehand, we've completed this mission. Now we're officially part of the Quanxing Sect, right?" Liu Yanyan asked directly.

Lü Liang smiled and said, "Don't rush, let me see if there's anything I want. Put the body down."

Liu Yanyan did not refuse and directly removed the talisman paper that was pasted on Zhang Huaiyi's body.

Without the talisman's control, Zhang Huaiyi's body fell straight to the ground.

Lü Liang immediately went to Zhang Huaiyi's body and stretched out his hands.

He began to use the Lü family's Soul-Clearing Technique.

The Soul-Enlightening Technique can extract a soul and then obtain fragments of memories from it.

As Lü Liang moved, golden specks began to appear on Zhang Huaiyi's corpse; these specks were fragments of Zhang Huaiyi's soul.

The points of light kept gathering in Lü Liang's hand, gradually coalescing into a golden sphere of light.

Lü Liang muttered something in a somewhat helpless tone.

"As expected, it still didn't work. I didn't have much hope anyway. It must be because the old man passed away too long ago."

"However, I still have to admire how powerful this old man was back then, even after so many years, we can still extract these soul fragments from him. But we can't get any useful information from this amount of energy alone."

Wang Qing stood aside, watching expressionlessly. He knew perfectly well that Lü Liang had no way of obtaining any useful information about the Qi Source Flow from Zhang Huaiyi's corpse.

Then Lü Liang should set his sights on Zhang Chulan next.

Hearing what Lü Liang said, Liu Yanyan, who was standing nearby, worried that he would go back on his word, so she said, "Hey, as agreed, we brought the corpse here, and you're going to let us join Quanxing. You can't go back on your word."

Lu Liang paused for a moment, then immediately came up with another idea. With a hint of apology, he said, "I'm sorry, there's nothing I can do about it. The information we gathered this time wasn't ideal, so you can't join Quanxing yet."

"Are you playing us?" Liu Yanyan glared angrily at Lü Liang.

Lu Liang spread his hands and started acting like a rogue, "It doesn't count, but what can I do? I'm in charge of personnel at Quanxing. If I say no, then no."

Just then, a captivating voice came from a corner not far away.

"Alright, Lü Liang, stop teasing them."
