Before Helian Wei Wei could finish chanting her spell, the female ghoul immediately retreated a few steps backward, as if she were terror-struck. The ghoul stared wide-eyed at Helian Wei Wei and no longer moved forward. She bent her knees, making it appear as if she was begging for mercy.
Humans could not understand the language of ghouls, so all they could hear was her heavy breathing.
But anyone could tell from the ghoul's posture that she was terrified of Helian Wei Wei.
The scene was totally out of anyone's expectation!
Not only did she impress the citizens of the War Dragon Empire, even the exorcist Leng Yi, who was standing next to Helian Wei Wei, was also stunned speechless.
If his ears did not deceive him, the spell she was reciting was... the Nine Word Mantra!
This was one of the most effective exorcism spells out there, but how was it possible that the Third Princess Consort of the War Dragon Empire could harness it?!
"Be dispelled!" These were the last two words uttered from Helian Wei Wei's mouth.
The female ghoul curled forward and fell limply onto the floor. As she felt the pain swallowing her up from her insides, she did not dare stretch out her hand anymore.
It was clear to everyone that if Leng Yi and the rest could restraint the ghoul, then Helian Wei Wei could terrorize the ghoul to the point that she was afraid to even move.
Under everyone's watchful gazes, Helian Wei Wei walked steadily toward the ghoul.
"Do not come in close contact with her, she might possess you!" Leng Yi seemed to have gained respect for Helian Wei Wei, as he voiced out his concerns, his own forehead was already coated in cold sweat.
However, Helian Wei Wei did not falter. With her hooded cape rustling in the wind, she looked really cool as she walked unfazed toward the ghoul. As she looked at the ghoul, she merely repeated the same words, but there was enough vigor in her tone to annihilate an army."Go back."
Without another sound, the female ghoul looked left and right before squirming back into the talisman pouch at a speed much faster than when she escaped, as if Helian Wei Wei was some terrifying beast!
To have the ability to push a ghoul to this limit... This was unprecedented to all who were present.
The public turned their attention back to Helian Wei Wei, as their faces filled with shock and surprise.
Wu Jing was a warrior who knew nothing about etiquette, so he just cheered on the spot and exclaimed bluntly, "Third Princess Consort, I did not know that you had it in you to even know exorcism!"
Helian Wei Wei smiled and reminisced back to the time when Yuan Xiao- oh no, when His Highness had not fully woken up yet, she had handled this before. Therefore, when the female ghoul came out, she had just acted on her instincts.
What surprised her was that she could actually understand what the female ghoul said.
Well, that was unexpected, even to her.
What if she could hear countless ghosts whispering behind her every time she sneaked out at night in the future?
"It all depends on you. If you do not wish to hear them, then you won't." A familiar deep voice sounded, it was His Highness. He was even chuckling at her in jest.
Helian Wei Wei looked up at the throne. He was peeking into her thoughts again! Could he just give her some privacy!
Elder Xu Wu did not expect things to come to this, which made his expression turn solemn. Even the exorcists from the neighbouring kingdoms wore serious expressions which were not there before.
Ever since the disaster which befell the War Dragon Empire's Elder Compound, their strength in the field of exorcism had been weaker than ever.
The three kingdoms must have guessed so, which was why they formed an alliance and arrived at the capital together.
But now, someone here succeeded in using the Nine Word Mantra, and seeing the female ghoul's reaction... it seemed that this person's mantra was packed with force!
For not even the three kingdoms' exorcists could guarantee that they could make the female ghoul cower in such fear. It was almost as if there was something in here that was more dangerous than her.
There was indeed someone here who was more vicious than she was... And that was Baili Jia Jue, who was seated on the throne.
His face was decorated with an elegant smirk, as always. He was right behind Helian Wei Wei, and when no one was paying attention, a dangerous golden light subtly flickered across his black pupils.
It was at that moment, the female ghoul felt a presence that humans could not, hence she squirmed into the talisman pouch and no longer tried to come out.
Of course, the female ghoul had no idea what that presence was, but a deep fear struck her from her veins, telling her that she had to obey!
No matter what, it was evident that Helian Wei Wei had won this round.
However, at this moment, Elder Xu Wu opened his mouth and asked, "Who had the best time?"
He was reminding everyone of the initial rules. The exorcist with the fastest time wins.
It was obvious that Leng Yi from the Xuanyuan Kingdom had the upper hand here. As for the War Dragon Empire, the young man alone had used up a lot of time in resisting the female ghoul. Adding on Helian Wei Wei's support after that...
"I'm sorry." The young man hung his head and clenched his fists.
Helian Wei Wei smiled devilishly, "It's alright, this is only the first round. This is just the beginning, you may retreat for now. I will take over for the rest of the contest."
"So the War Dragon Empire is planning to send in a substitute?" Elder Xu Wu laughed in sarcasm. His gaze fell on Helian Wei Wei as he spoke in a provocative tone, "Third Princess Consort, you won't possibly assume that all the exorcists from our Xuanyuan Empire are merely at this level, right?"
Helian Wei Wei flashed him a dashing smile and said coolly, "We from the War Dragon Empire are also more that what you have just seen. Your princess was asking me what I could I offer to Our Highness, right? I have thought about it carefully, and here is my answer – aside from funding his expenses and taking care of him, I can also help him teach people the lessons they deserve. Especially to big bullies like your esteemed kingdom."
"You!" This was the first time Elder Xu Wu wanted to wring someone's neck so badly!
Helian Wei Wei smiled sweetly, as if she was not the one who uttered the previous statement."Elder Xu Wu, don't get so excited. Please remember that you are an elder."
Elder Xu Wu drew in a deep breath.
Zongzheng Yu Er's tiny face was so red with rage that it could almost bleed!
Little Seven was munching on a meat bun. He looked left then right, then he scratched his head. Isn't the highlight of this sentence basically the fact that she's funding Third Brother's expenses?' Why is the elder so mad?
The person who was supposed to be mad was his Third Brother, right?
Thinking of this, the little one sneaked a glance at his Third Brother.
There it was.
Baili Jia Jue cocked his brow and flicked a finger across his thin lips. He laughed softly."Funding my expenses and taking care of me. Huh."
"Third Brother." The little one scampered over with a serious face."Third Aunt was just joking."
Baili Jia Jue gave him a look and stretched out his hand to pet the little one's head. With a dangerous look on his face, he said, "Even though she is joking, she does think that what she said is true. Tell me, how should I punish her? Hmm?"
Hearing that, the little one shut up immediately. Lowering his bald head, he looked towards Helian Wei Wei as he thought, Third Aunt, I have done all I could, too bad our enemy is too cunning!
Helian Wei Wei did notice the little one's gaze. As she glanced in his direction, she saw His Highness smirking down at her. Out of nowhere, she felt goosebumps prickling on her skin. She looked questioningly towards the little one: What is going on?
The little one looked upwards at the ceiling, and twitched his lips toward his back...
