Chapter 412: Raising the Ghost King! (Fifth Update)
“Little Long, what is the ‘Nine Infant Ten Thousand Evils Formation’?” Seeing Huang Xiaolong’s expression change, Sun Wei couldn’t help but ask.
“It’s a malicious and evil formation, which requires the bodies of nine six-month-old infants to be laid out…” Huang Xiaolong’s eyes flashed with murderous intent. “Actually, this formation is typically used for raising ghosts.”
“Raising ghosts?” Sun Wei was puzzled.
“Yes… to raise a high-level ghost,” Huang Xiaolong quickly replied. “You surround the hotel with the corpses of nine six-month-old babies, trapping everyone inside. Unborn infants already harbor strong resentment. Six-month-old fetuses, their visual nervous systems are undeveloped, like the blind, the resentment amplifies after their death, blaming everyone and everything, killing at sight.”
“Furthermore, this formation already greatly amplifies resentment. Once the formation is activated, the resentment and Evil Qi of nine infants, their hatred, forms a connected field, multiplying several times, even tens of times. As a result, all beings trapped within the formation are doomed!”
“So, once the ‘Nine Infant Ten Thousand Evils Formation’ is complete, everyone inside the Grand Carnival Hotel will drop dead!”
Upon hearing this, Sun Wei shivered as if she had fallen into an ice hole. “How terrifying… this is too horrifying… A five-star hotel, how many people would be staying here? To think… they’re all going to be murdered… Could the owner of this Carnival Hotel be a demon?”
Sun Wei found it hard to believe.
“No, he is cruel, extremely cruel,” Huang Xiaolong chuckled. “As I said, setting up such an evil formation isn’t merely for killing or wealth; the ultimate goal is to raise a ghost! Because when the ‘Nine Infant Ten Thousand Evils Formation’ is activated, and the beings in the hotel are wiped out, resentment and Yin Qi will reach their peak. At this moment, if a ghost absorbs these intense resentments, Yin Qi, and Evil Qi, it will instantly grow to a terrifying level. This person, using the living guests of the Grand Carnival Hotel like pigs, fattening them for slaughter, all to nurture the ghost he is raising, cultivating it into a top-tier malicious ghost.” Huang Xiaolong understood perfectly.
He looked at the kneeling green-clothed woman ghost, “What kind of ghost is your boss planning to raise? A purple-clothed ghost or a Ghost King?”
“It’s… it’s the Ghost King…” The green-clothed woman ghost was incredibly terrified and panicked. “The boss wants to personally raise a Ghost King… it’s… it’s Miss ‘Fangfang’… She… She’s already a purple-clothed malicious ghost, just one step away from ascending to the Ghost King’s throne! As long as the ‘Nine Infant Ten Thousand Evils Formation’ is complete, Miss ‘Fangfang’, devouring thousands of resentful souls, will instantly become the supreme Ghost King!”
“Raise a Ghost King? Hahaha~~~~~Cruel! Cruel person! Too cruel!” Huang Xiaolong grinned. “A path littered with the bones of the innocent, impressive, truly impressive.”
If one could indeed raise a Ghost King, any cost would be worth it.

If all the guests and staff of the Grand Carnival Hotel were to die, what does it matter? Ordinary people would not be able to investigate the cause of death, the worst-case scenario would be to compensate for it later.
The owner of the Grand Carnival Hotel can feign innocence and pretend to be a victim. The ones at a loss in the end could only be the banks and insurance companies.
Once the Ghost King is raised, in essence, he would become a leading figure in all places, towering above all.
What does being a Ghost King entail? Just like Huang Xiaolong’s maid ‘Ying Kexin’, they are equivalent to terrestrial gods. Even grandmasters like Yan Shanshan, Uncle Yun, Ying Aoshan, none of them would stand a chance, they’re practically doomed upon encountering a Ghost King.
From this point, though the owner of the Grand Carnival Hotel is a tycoon in Jiangnan City on the surface, deep down, he is a tyrant.
Unfortunately, his plans are bound to be thwarted by Huang Xiaolong today.
If Huang Xiaolong didn’t exterminate the evil ghost on the 29th floor, I’m afraid this formation would have been completed, leading to the death of everyone in the hotel.
“Now, there’s just one pregnant woman left…” Huang Xiaolong mused for a moment.
The green-clothed woman ghost attempted to win favor. “Immortal… we learned that… an hour ago, a pregnant woman moved into the hotel… she’s exactly six months pregnant… if… if it wasn’t for your interference, we would have… taken her fetus already…”
“I’m dizzy! That was close!” Sun Wei was so scared she broke into a cold sweat. “Little Long, thinking about it now, if we’re even half a step late, a tragedy would have unfolded…”
“Hahahaha~~~Actually, it doesn’t matter if the ‘Nine Infant Ten Thousand Evils Formation’ is really activated, I have a way to resolve it. It would just be a bit more troublesome.” Huang Xiaolong spoke carelessly.
That said, Huang Xiaolong still prioritizes saving trouble, it would be best to nip this conspiracy in the bud.
“Immortal… The boss places great importance on the last fetus… so… even if… you kill us all… tonight, the boss will still send other departed spirits to obtain the fetus from the pregnant woman, perhaps even sending Miss ‘Fangfang’ herself…” the green-clothed woman ghost shakily informed.
The so-called “Miss Fangfang” is the “Prospective Ghost King” raised by the owner of the Grand Carnival Hotel, she’s already a purple-clothed malicious ghost. Among the malicious ghosts, she’s at the top of the food chain, extremely ferocious.
“Fine then, I must protect that pregnant woman.” Huang Xiaolong promptly stood up, obtained the pregnant woman’s name, and room number from the green-clothed woman ghost.
Then, he took Lan Ke’er’s soul, together with the green-clothed woman ghost, into the Soul Cylinder.
“Little Long, are you going to find the pregnant woman now?” Sun Wei asked anxiously.
“There’s no time to waste, I’ll go there immediately. At the very least, I’ll ensure her safety before the departed spirits come to harm her.” Huang Xiaolong headed towards the door. “Every life is precious, I can’t stand by and watch a heavily pregnant woman get murdered, her baby taken from her, it’s just too cruel.”
“Uh-huh, Little Long, you’re too kind! Let’s go, I’ll accompany you!” Sun Wei hurriedly agreed.
Both of them left the room.
By now, it was already past 1 a.m.
Huang Xiaolong looked out through the floor-to-ceiling windows in the corridor, outside the hotel was a thick fog that even the wind couldn’t disperse, enveloping the entire Grand Carnival Hotel.
Vaguely, he could hear the cries of infants, incredibly chilling.
The pregnant woman mentioned by the green-clothed woman ghost was staying on the 23rd floor.
When they arrived at the room’s door, Sun Wei hastily knocked. “Open the door! Open it immediately!”
Knock knock knock~~Knock knock knock~~~
The vigorous knocks echoed eerily in the quiet hallways.
However, after half a minute, there was no reaction from inside the room.
Sun Wei’s face turned white from fear. “Little Long! Could it be that we’re too late! That pregnant woman… could she have already… fallen victim? In that case… the nine infant corpses would be complete… the wicked formation would… would be activated…”
“Then… then everyone in this hotel would die… and… a Ghost King would be born…”
Knock knock knock~~Knock knock knock~~~
