That's why Fang Han didn't touch Ma Danna; he suspected that the women of the Ma family were pawns used by fate to control the Pangu zombie.
"Why is Madonna in Nanjing? She's like a persistent ghost..."
Fang Han murmured to himself, not yet having reached the level of Zombie King, he didn't want to have too much contact with Madana, lest fate discover his presence.
He watched Madonna leave the city before turning his gaze away.

Chapter 20 The Ma Family's Ultimate Technique: The Nine-Character Mantra Dragon Summoning Method!
Thirty miles away.
The Japanese army began to assemble, consisting of four divisions from different places.
The army set up camp and temporarily gathered its forces in the field.
Inside the tent, four division commanders, all holding the rank of lieutenant general, were gathered together, considered high-ranking figures in Japan.
They looked uneasy, bowing respectfully and appearing very nervous.
Before the four division commanders stood an old man dressed in hunting robes, clearly an Onmyoji!
Besides the old man, there were dozens of young disciples, all dressed in hunting robes with chrysanthemum patterns embroidered on their chests!
They are all Onmyoji, from the Kuju school!
Onmyoji hold a high status in Japan. Even the four division commanders, who are all lieutenant generals, acted somewhat reservedly and dared not be careless when facing their ordinary disciples.
In particular, the elder in the lead was the leader of the Onmyoji and the Grand Elder of the Nine Chrysanthemums Sect!
His status was so high that even the Emperor himself would have to treat him with the utmost respect.
He orchestrated this military operation, intending to use the people of Nanjing as sacrifices to awaken the spirits of the Nine Chrysanthemums faction.
"How long will it take for the entire army to arrive?" the Grand Elder asked, looking at the four division commanders.
The four men, trembling, hurriedly replied, "In about half an hour, there will be a total of 100,000 troops!"
"My lord, according to the plan, we should have attacked Jinling in three days. Why was it suddenly brought forward?"
The First Elder's expression was cold as he said indifferently, "Because my plan may have been exposed, the Third Elder's life tablet was shattered, and he has already been murdered..."
Before he could finish speaking, the Grand Elder's expression changed slightly, and he took out a jade token from his robes.
Click!
Cracks have appeared on the jade pendant!
This is a life tablet, recording the life force of each elder. If the life tablet is damaged, it means that the elder's life is in danger.
The jade tablet has the character "五" on it, which is the life tablet of the Fifth Elder.
As cracks appeared, the jade pendant shattered into two pieces...
"Youmei is dead?" The First Elder frowned. "Who killed her? Two elders have died in just two days!"
His face was ashen. The deaths of the Third Elder and the Fifth Elder were a devastating loss for the Jiuju faction.
"It seems there are experts in Jinling City!"
"To kill the Fifth Elder, the opponent must be at least a Celestial Master!"
Upon hearing this, the four division commanders' expressions turned solemn.
"Sir, what should we do now?"
"Don't worry, just let the army wait where they are. If they really know my plan, they will definitely come to stop me."
The Grand Elder sneered: "There's an old Chinese saying, 'Invite the enemy into a trap!'"
He looked at the disciples present and instructed them, "Go and set up a barrier immediately, the other side may arrive soon."
Dozens of disciples nodded, turned and left the tent, planting battle flags nearby.
After half an hour,
The entire army of 100,000 had arrived, but there were no soldiers patrolling around the tents; they were all resting on the perimeter.
Inside the tent, the Grand Elder and the Division Commander sat together in utter silence.
The four division commanders were filled with trepidation. They dared not speak in front of the Grand Elder, feeling an invisible pressure.
Because this guy is a ruthless person who kills without blinking an eye and implements the "Three Alls Policy" wherever he goes: kill all, burn all, loot all!
Just then, the tent flap was lifted, and two figures rushed in, a man and a woman...
He Yingqiu and Ma Dana arrived at the scene and immediately located the location of the Onmyoji.
As soon as they entered, their eyes were fixed on the old man in the tent.
"Oh it's you!"
"The Grand Elder of the Nine Chrysanthemums Sect!"
He Yingqiu exclaimed in surprise, staring intently at the old man, recognizing his identity.
"He Yingqiu?" the Grand Elder exclaimed in surprise. "I didn't expect it to be you. It seems you're the one who killed Honda Yumi!"
As a disciple of the Taoist priest Mao Xiaofang, He Yingqiu was extremely famous, and even the Yin-Yang masters had heard of him.
"Who is Honda Yumi?" He Yingqiu frowned. He knew the First Elder, but not the Fifth Elder.
Madana urged, "Stop talking nonsense and get to work. I feel something's wrong; there are no soldiers guarding this place."
"it is good!"
He Yingqiu suddenly charged toward the Grand Elder, his aura exploding outwards.
Madana, wielding a peach wood sword, joined forces with him. Both were Celestial Masters, with their cultivation reaching the mid-stage of Celestial Master.
"You two are quite bold, daring to come here as just two people!" the elder sneered.
He Yingqiu and Ma Dana remained silent. Their purpose in coming here was not to fight against the army, but to eliminate the Onmyoji.
Faced with the two attacking him, the Grand Elder remained calm and composed. When the peach wood sword arrived in front of him, he instantly activated his cultivation, and a terrifying aura emanated from his body, revealing him to be at the peak of the Celestial Master realm!
Bang!Bang!
He Yingqiu and Ma Danna were struck as if by a heavy blow, and the force of the impact sent them flying.
The Grand Elder is highly skilled in Taoism and is on the verge of breaking through to the Celestial Master realm and reaching the Saint Master realm.
Cultivator ranks are divided into: Human Master, Earth Master, Celestial Master, Saint Master, and Immortal Master.
In this day and age, it is difficult to become an immortal. Celestial Masters are already powerful, Saint Masters are the pinnacle of the human realm, and Immortal Masters are known as terrestrial immortals.
"So powerful!" He Yingqiu stared at the Grand Elder in shock; this man's strength far exceeded his expectations.
Madana gritted her teeth: "I can only use my ultimate move; we must finish this quickly!"
She quickly formed hand seals and chanted the nine-syllable mantra.
“临、兵、斗、者、皆、阵、列、在、前…”
As soon as he finished speaking, a golden light flashed, and a five-clawed golden dragon appeared out of thin air, its body covered with scales, majestic and awe-inspiring.
"Shenlong?"
The Grand Elder was shocked: "The Nine-Character Mantra Dragon Summoning Technique... So you're a descendant of the Ma family!"
Madana's pretty face turned cold as she controlled the five-clawed golden dragon to attack the Grand Elder. A strong wind blew up and the tent shook violently.
"hold head high--"
A high-pitched dragon roar resounded, deafeningly loud, and the tent was blown away.
The five-clawed golden dragon's body gradually grew larger, and it suddenly charged towards the Grand Elder.
The dragon, a being on par with gods, possesses power comparable to immortals and deities.
This is the Ma family's ultimate technique. Although it is not a real dragon, it contains the power of a dragon and is something that even a celestial master cannot withstand.
The dragon itself possessed the peach wood sword, but because it was in a dragon soul state, it could not be used easily.
Therefore, Madonna only used the power of the dragon god to summon the five-clawed golden dragon, which was merely a magical illusion...
Chapter 21 Zombies of Jinling City? A being who could kill the Zombie King with his bare hands!
Even though it was just a spell, the five-clawed golden dragon seemed to be alive, as if it had flesh and blood, and looked incredibly lifelike.
The elder remained expressionless, a feather fan appearing out of thin air in his hand, radiating light as he waved it, forming a protective shield around him.
He retreated repeatedly, using his magical artifact to defend against the five-clawed golden dragon.
"kill!"
Madana charged at the Grand Elder with a peach wood sword in hand, followed closely by He Yingqiu. The two of them and the dragon joined forces, and the Grand Elder was put at a disadvantage.
The magic surged, and the tables and chairs on site shattered into pieces...
The four division commanders trembled in fear; it was like a battle of gods. They hurriedly fled the scene.
The Grand Elder was highly skilled, but even he couldn't defeat two Celestial Masters and a Divine Dragon.
However, he remained completely calm, and instead smiled.
