On the top floor of the thirty-level pagoda, Luo Yi opened his eyes from meditation. Just now, he broke through a realm and achieved a qualitative leap in cultivation, just like a ghost hunter who cultivates a super spirit body.
Taking this step is of great significance to him. From now on, he will no longer be the weakest leader among the three major forces. He will stand at the same height as strong men like Qi Keying and Zhong Qingyang.
"I have been in seclusion for decades. Although it was interrupted several times due to some things, in the end, brother, you succeeded. Congratulations, brother, for your great success." Shi Hu looked like he was in his early fifties, with a serious expression on his face.
, there is no hint of happiness at all.
Cao Meng on the side responded with his deep voice: "Lao Shi, can't you just smile?"
Shi Hu only moved his eyes, but did not turn his head away: "What's so funny?"
Cao Meng shrugged: "At times like this, you should laugh."
Shi Hu said, "Really?" He seemed to think about it seriously: "I still don't feel the need to laugh."
Cao Meng seemed to have given up, stroking the beautiful beard on his chin: "Okay, it's up to you."
Luo Yi said with a smile on his face: "Okay, two good brothers, without your support, I, Luo Yi, would not have achieved what I have today. Since I am officially out of seclusion today, the first thing is to reward me based on my merits.
"
Shi Hu raised his eyes and looked at Luo Yi: "There is no need for a reward. I can follow my elder brother and contribute to you. It is already a reward."
Cao Meng stroked his beard and smiled and said: "If others say this, it is just flattery. Only when you Shi Hu says it can people believe that it is true."
"There is another reason why we don't want to reward you." Shi Hu continued: "When we invited Wu You to retreat together, he pretended to be uninterested and looked cynical. But forgive me for being blunt, this man is so deep in the city that he has no power in the entire Yin and Yang world.
There are few who can match him, so he must have his own purpose. Now that my eldest brother is out of seclusion and he rewards the two of me, the ghost generals will definitely think that the three of us are at odds with Wu You and are ostracizing each other.
Over the years, Wu You took advantage of our seclusion and developed a lot of confidants. By then, I'm afraid that ghosts will divide everyone's hearts and minds, leading to the final split into two."
Cao Meng smiled again and said, "Don't worry, my eldest brother and I have already thought of your concerns."
Luo Yi took over the conversation: "So, not only do I want to reward you two, I also want to reward your subordinates. Among the ghost generals, I will reward everyone except those who belong to his Qinglong tribe."
Shi Hu soon understood: "Brother, is this a declaration of war?"
Luo Yi snorted coldly: "No, this is just a signal to him, so that he should not think that he is one of the founders of the ghost generals, so he has nothing to fear. For someone as ambitious and malicious as him, I, Luo Yi, think it is useful."
Use it when the time comes. If I think he is useless or poses a threat to the foundation of the ghost generals, huh..."
Cao Meng continued: "Now that my elder brother has made further progress, he can easily catch the old man who wants to deal with Wu You. If he keeps to himself and serves as his Qinglong general, everyone will be able to talk to each other in the future. If he jumps over the wall in a hurry, haha... then,
He and his henchmen will all jump out one by one, which saves us the need to investigate and catch them all in one fell swoop."
Shi Hu whispered: "Strength... determines everything..."
…………
Chengdu, suburbs.
A mansion is located in a deserted place, and a station wagon is speeding there.
Wang Xu was sitting in the passenger seat, staring closely at the driver's face. Pei Yuan really couldn't stand the burning look in his eyes, so he asked: "What are you looking at along the way? I have something on my face."
What is it?"
"The sky and the night are endless, and the lotus flowers are exceptionally red on a hard day." Wang Xu thought.
Pei Yuan corrected him: "It should be that the lotus leaves touching the sky are infinitely green, and the lotus flowers reflecting the sun are particularly red."
"It's really you..." Wang Xu seemed to be in disbelief.
Qi Bing, who was sitting in the back row, asked a question: "I'll interrupt you two, um... Wang Xu... what on earth were you reading just now?"
Wang Xu replied casually: "Oh, this poem was written by this skeleton boss when he first met me... It talks about a man named Jie Tian and a woman named He Hua..."
"Then the story only exists in your own imagination!" Pei Yuan shouted: "How on earth did you misunderstand to that point?!"
"That... Let's not mention it for now, I'm just surprised... Although I saw you last time after you gained weight, but today I took a closer look and realized that you are very handsome..." Wang Xu said.
"Oh, thank you for the compliment." Pei Yuan still drove calmly.
But Wang Xu immediately said the second half of his sentence: "I say, Liu Hang, your skills are pretty good. The nose is like a nose, and the eyes are like eyes."
"I just restored my original appearance! It's not like he used his spiritual power to create flesh!" Pei Yuan roared again.
Wang Xu looked at Liu Hang sitting in the back with a questioning look. The latter spread his hands and looked at the sky. Then Wang Xu seemed to understand, and he didn't know why these two guys could have such a tacit understanding.
"Tch...it turned out to be natural..."
"You seem very disappointed! What's that tone? It seems like you want Liu Hang to help you with plastic surgery?! What are you doing! Did your eyes suddenly look like this full of resentment and jealousy?!"
The group of them finally arrived at their destination after forcing Pei Yuan to complain. After opening the door with the key and going in, what came into their sight was an empty large house. Although it looked like a mansion on the outside, there was no decoration at all and no furniture inside.
.
Liu Qingruo appeared out of nowhere and scanned the five people except Pei Yuan one by one: "Elbert, from the self-strengthening system, but his spiritual awareness is not up to the level of a newcomer; Qi Bing, from the natural system, has superior abilities and spiritual skills.
His consciousness is stronger than that of the average city-level person in charge, but not as good as the Ten Palaces of Hell; He Wenhong, with martial arts spiritual ability, is between Elbert and Qi Bing in terms of spiritual consciousness; Liu Hang, with the special system, possesses
Hao Long Dan, his fighting ability is the strongest among the five of you, and his spiritual knowledge is also the strongest."
At this time, Shui Yungu yawned and walked over from the next room: "As for Wang Xu, we can't use psychic powers to detect, so let's just think of him as the strongest one."
Liu Qingruo continued: "With this combination, the chance of reaching Huangtian City alive...is less than ten percent."
Wang Xu said disdainfully: "It's fun for the young couple to sing along, isn't it? Doesn't it mean that we will have a narrow escape from death? I've heard this a lot, can you say something new?"
Liu Qingruo actually showed a rather strange smile at this time: "Under this house, there is a 'Well of Souls'. I don't even know exactly when it existed there, but a few years ago, I
I discovered it, so I built this place as one of the many strongholds of the Soulless. If you want to move around, you can easily do it through the Well of Souls."
"One of many strongholds..." Wang Xu said: "Your underworld organization seems to be quite large..."
The other party also bluntly said: "Hmph...it must be bigger than you think. Although our existing members have all gone to S City, Chengdu was once the foundation of Soulless. You can find such facilities at any time when you want to use them."
It’s a lot.”
Wang Xu asked: "Then let's use that well to set off now?"
Shui Yungu said: "No, you five have one more thing to do before setting off."
Liu Hang was the first to react after hearing this. Perhaps it should be said that he was very intuitive and was the first to feel that something was not going well. He slowly turned around, and the scene in front of him fully proved that
His hunch was correct.
Wang Xu and the others also turned around one after another. They found that in addition to Pei Yuan who had come to pick them up earlier, there were Yu Xin, Guo Jingtian, Luo Ying, Lin Xiaoshuang and a young man they did not know in the room.
Shui Yungu continued: "Only after you defeat everyone in this room can you go on the road."
Wang Xu breathed a sigh of relief: "Ah... I knew that this time all the soulless people came out in large numbers. It was impossible for them all to prepare for the world transfer gate. In the end, such a development happened..."
The strange young man said: "Hmph... If you can't even defeat us, what can you do if you go to the Yin and Yang Realm?"
Wang Xu said: "You are indeed Chai Xing... Hmm..." He looked up and down at Chai Xing with malicious eyes: "You've grown up, right... When you've grown up, you'll start shaking, right?
…”
Chai Xing replied in an extremely unhappy tone: "I am already twenty years old, not much younger than you!"
Leader Liu interrupted at this time: "Okay, there's no need to argue. Let's choose our opponents. There are many people here, and some of you must fight against many. After arriving in the Yin and Yang Realm, I believe most battles will be like this.
It’s a situation, so you’d better get used to it.”
Wang Xu was the first to stand up and said: "Then there is no need to argue with me." He looked at Shui Yungu and Liu Qingruo: "The person who can deal with you two at the same time must be me."
Qi Bing walked over to Yu Xin with a poker face and said, "I'll fight her."
Yu Xin looked at him with extreme contempt, and then said: "Xiao Shuang, come and help me."
Lin Xiaoshuang's face was expressionless and her tone was as cold as ice: "Okay."
As for Liu Hang and the fat version of Luo Ying, the two of them had already locked eyes with each other. They both acted fiercely and said at the same time: "One-on-one!"
Elbert weighed his own strength and chose to fight Chai Xing.
So, in the end, He Wenhong had to fight against Pei Yuan and Guo Jingtian alone, but looking at his expression, he looked like he had a good chance of winning.
After everyone had chosen their opponents, Shui Yungu said: "You each choose a room. After you open the door and walk in, and then close the door, it will become a small room isolated from the outside world. The walls inside are difficult to penetrate.
You can fight with confidence."
Wang Xu snorted coldly: "I'm really prepared for it." He took the lead and walked out.
Others also dispersed one after another, and soon the hall of the mansion became empty again.
