After listening to Lingyun's words, they looked at each other and felt sick to their stomachs. They couldn't help wanting to throw up.
Lingyun took the chance to sit back down. "If I'm not mistaken, the Vajra Corpse's final form has already been born." Lingyun kept eating the barbecue, speaking unhurriedly.
"No, Vajra is the most powerful zombie form. It's already hard to deal with from the moment it's born." When Wang Xiaoer heard Lingyun finish, his heart went cold and tight. Even though he wasn't obliged to uphold world peace or whatever, the education he'd received from his father as a child was that they shouldn't let evil people do whatever they wanted.
This Vajra Corpse couldn't be dealt with using his Seven Killings Order. But he saw Lingyun still looking so calm and relaxed.
"Boss, what should we do now?" Wang Xiaoer asked tentatively.
"Let's go back to the villa first. We've been missing for two days. They're probably really worried. We need to think long-term and figure out what's going on first. Once you're full, we'll head out." So after finishing their food and drink, the two of them walked toward Lingyun's villa.
"These two boys don't even look that strong. How can they eat so much?" It was an intern who'd come to clear the dishes. He complained as he looked at the greasy plates.
Lingyun and Wang Xiaoer returned to the villa.
"We're back! Anyone here? Where did they all go?"
Just as Lingyun was getting interested and was thinking about sparring a bit more with the butler, a familiar voice suddenly came from afar.
"Brother Yun, over here, over here! Is it really you?" Racing along the dim stone path, a red‑haired girl in a miniskirt came charging over. Hearing the familiar voice and seeing Xiao Hu, Lingyun finally let out a breath and broke into a grin.
Xiao Hu was too excited and dove straight into Lingyun's arms. Lingyun suddenly felt awkward, but he calmed himself and gently patted the beauty in his embrace to soothe her.
"Brother Yun, where did you go these past few days? Everyone missed you so much. Do you know? A lot of things happened these two days. Without you, we didn't know what to do." Xiao Hu cried right in Lingyun's arms. Lingyun gave her shoulder a light smack.
"It's okay. It's okay. I'm back now. It's Brother Yun's fault. What happened these two days? Are you all right?" Lingyun felt a bit guilty for not protecting everyone properly and being taken away without a word of explanation.
"Come on, let me take a look first. How's 233? We'll talk about what happened these few days." So they headed to Jingde Courtyard.
This sudden situation made Lingyun and the butler end up together, which also allowed the butler to breathe a sigh of relief. He led everyone to a quiet yard, then automatically stepped aside. "Honored guest, what is it you wish to do? Please allow this servant to escort you to the gate. I still have other matters to attend to, so I'll take my leave." The butler, neither humble nor overbearing, turned and walked off.
Lingyun watched his retreating figure, steady and elegant. The most important thing right now was to reunite with everyone, so he let him go.
With Xiao Hu leading the way, Lingyun called everyone inside out. Lingyun had been gone for a few days, yet there didn't seem to be any obvious change in their faces. Looking more closely now, Xiao Hu's face seemed a bit pale. Yue Wan's hand was wrapped in bandages—it looked like she'd been hurt too. Li Xue just looked a little haggard, but seeing the two of them come back, her mood visibly lifted and she seemed to have improved a lot.
"Lingyun, where did you go these two days? (bjdi) We spent a whole day looking for you and couldn't find you, we almost ran into danger." Li Xue was a bit angry, apparently unhappy about Lingyun's sudden disappearance.
"You really can't blame us. That day Brother Ling and I noticed something strange, so we went to check it out. Sure enough, the Vajra Corpse seemed to have a secret book. We were planning to take him out on the spot, when suddenly the Victoria City task force knocked us unconscious and dragged us away…" Wang Xiaoer wanted to explain what had happened back then, but Lingyun hurriedly cut him off. He had no intention of telling them the details right now—the more they knew, the more they'd worry, and the more dangerous it would be for them.
"At the time we had to think fast. We went through all kinds of hardships and only managed to get back after two days and two nights…" Lingyun picked up the story and started bragging.
Whether what they were saying was true or not left everyone confused. As for Ye Lin's strength, they'd always felt it was unfathomable and didn't know who to believe. But since Ye Lin had said it, there was no reason to doubt him, and the matter was glossed over just like that. Wang Xiaoer wasn't stupid. Since Yan Yun didn't want him to talk, he shut his mouth as well, so as not to let the truth slip out.
"Did you get hurt? Who attacked you? What's happened these last two days?" Lingyun looked at the pale‑faced Xiao Hu and at Yue Wan, who was holding a jar of ointment in her right hand.
"On the second day after you left, the Vajra Corpse showed up again." Li Xue recalled the scene at the time.
The night after that, Lingyun and Wang Xiaoer vanished for no reason. They never came back. Everyone was very worried. The strongest among them were Xiao Hu and Yue Wan. After discussing it, they decided to go out together to look for the two of them and to track the Vajra Corpse's movements.

Because their strength wasn't particularly high, they set out together. Li Xue, being too weak, could only stay at the villa and wait for everyone to return.
The two of them left early in the morning. Trusting their instincts, Xiao Hu and Yue Wan headed deep into the mountains. At first everything was normal—they couldn't find anything.
Just at noon, when they were about to head back to rest, the sun was suddenly blocked by thick clouds. That cloud was clearly deliberate and contained terrifying energy. Yue Wan was more sensitive to energy. After a brief discussion…
After carefully weighing it, they felt that although the move was risky, it still had a chance of success, so they went into a dormant state and waited for the best moment to strike.
On the mountaintop not far away, the Vajra Corpse and the mysterious man were full of anticipation. They had been preparing for so long and had put in so much effort, and had finally awaited this day.
The Vajra Corpse held the secret book taken from the tomb in his right hand, and with his left released the souls he had collected over these days. Once the souls were released and tried to escape, Diamond immediately opened the secret book and chanted under his breath. Suddenly, a strange Array spewed out from his mouth. The Array spread everywhere, capturing several souls and forming a quadrangle courtyard.
At the same time, the secret book in his hand began to shine with a brilliant golden light. This skill, once activated at this moment, couldn't be used again.
As he finished speaking, the thunder in the sky grew even more violent. At the same time, a deep roar, like tens of thousands of beasts grunting, sounded as if it could tear the earth apart at any moment.
"Brother, we've paid so much for so long, we're finally about to succeed. We can't afford to capsize in some ditch. You must protect me—" The Vajra Corpse's mouth didn't move, only emitting a pitiful voice. In the mysterious man's eyes, this was a natural sound, but to the one beside him it felt gloomy and terrifying.
"Don't worry. You can calmly complete the final thunder ritual. I swear to protect your safety." The mysterious man's eyes were filled with gentleness, his voice low.
With the mysterious man's reassurance, the Vajra Corpse's confidence soared, and he chanted the incantation even faster. Finally, a barrage of lightning came from the sky. Strangely, all those bolts seemed to be aimed at the same point—the spot where the steel corpse was standing.
After continuous brewing, a bolt of lightning shot down like a silver sword, stabbing straight into the Vajra Corpse's body. The lightning pierced through the corpse, then finally vanished into the air.
