Seven hundred and seventieth eight chapters keep one hand
The aura of the old Black Mountain demon completely disappeared, which meant that it died.
When the Xuanxin Zhengzong Taoists who were outside the Ghost King's Palace noticed it, one can imagine the shock in their hearts, which was almost as overwhelming as the sea.
The old demon of Heishan is a powerful ghost king at the level of the real Yuanshen.
It was hard for them to accept that he died so silently.
When did a powerful person with a true soul level die such a humble death in a battle?
"Fellow Taoists of the Xuanxin Sect, please invite us. Your Excellency just summoned us to come in!"
At this time, the leader of the magic monks from the northwest smiled and invited the Xuanxin Zongzong Taoist who was stunned: "If you have any ideas, I can wait until I meet with you, sir!"
The Taoists of the Xuanxin Sect felt very uncomfortable. They intuitively felt that the confidence and arrogance of the magic monks and martial arts masters coming from the northwest were a bit dazzling.
…
The palace in the ghost city was empty. Lei Hu was sitting on the Bone Throne with a calm demeanor that made the Xuanxin Zhengsong Taoists who had just come in feel trembling.
"Everyone, thank you for your help!"
Lei Hu took the lead and said with a smile: "This time we can eradicate the big cancer of the Black Mountain Old Demon in one fell swoop, and you all must have contributed a lot!"
"The river god is welcome!"
The leader of Xuanxin Zhengzong's group said modestly: "We also received help from Junior Brother Yan Chixiayan, so we rushed to save people. Unexpectedly, it coincided with the actions of the River God. It is also fate!"
"Previously, Yan Chixia of Guizong had left the Netherworld, and she was obviously rescued!"
Lei Hu nodded and said directly: "If this is not a place where you can stay for a long time, I won't keep you all here!"
He was very straightforward and did not go around in circles with the other party and directly showed off his guests.
"Your Excellency, after all, we also participated in the battle to encircle and annihilate the Black Mountain Old Demon, so why don't we just be excluded from it?"
The face of the Taoist leader Xuan Xin Zhengzong became very ugly and he spoke directly.
"Then what do you think?"
Lei Hu's expression remained unchanged, he looked at the Taoists of Xuanxin Zhengzong calmly, and said leisurely: "I have something to say, I have no friendship with Xuanxin Zhengzong!"
"Your Excellency, Xiaodao will not be polite!"
The leading Taoist of Xuanxin Zongzong said bluntly: "I hope that you can release some of the authority in the ghost city!"
"Tell me clearly, what is partial authority?"
Lei Hu was not angry and asked instead: "Could it be that you still want to get involved in the management of the ghost town?"
"Xiao Dao doesn't have such a big appetite!"
The leading Taoist priest of Xuanxin Zhengzong said directly: "I hope you can set aside an area in the ghost city and hand it over to Xuanxin Zhengzong for management!"
"This is impossible!"
Lei Hu flatly rejected it, shook his head and said: "How can someone else sleep soundly on the side of the bed, let alone two forces in charge of the same ghost town? Do you think this situation is normal?"
"Then why do you teach me?"
The leading Taoist of Xuanxin Zongzong looked solemn and said bluntly: "Since Xiaodao and Yiqian Junior Brothers are involved and have put in a lot of effort, we can't be in vain, right?"
"If you don't take the initiative to speak up, I really have no intention of letting you share the benefits!"
He chuckled lightly, but Lei Hu's words were very direct. He ignored the Xuanxin Zhengsong Taoist priests whose faces suddenly turned ugly, and said leisurely: "But since you have spoken, there is no need to count on the ghost city. I don't
You will give in, and besides, your role in this battle is not big enough to negotiate terms with me!"
This was a bit unpleasant to say, but all the Taoists from Xuanxin Zongzong present had nothing to say.
That is exactly what happened!
Their original purpose was just to help fellow sect member Yan Chixia escape safely from the Black Mountain Old Demon's territory. They had no intention of occupying the territory, which was unrealistic.
With their strength, there is no way they can seize territory and benefits from the Black Mountain old demon. It would be great if they could escape safely.
Who would have thought that the mantis stalks the cicada and the oriole follows behind!
The king of the northwest, the Blackwater River God, followed closely with his capable men and horses. In the end, he killed the Black Mountain Old Demon in one fell swoop. He should have obtained the Black Mountain Old Demon's territory and all resources.
Also because the opportunity was rare, Xuan Xin Zhengzong and his group of Taoists bit the bullet and tried it out. It would be good if they could occupy a small area of the ghost city. If Lei Hu didn't agree, it wouldn't be a big deal.
It's just that I always feel a little unhappy in my heart!
…
"However, I am not an unreasonable person!"
Lei Hu changed his tone and said with a smile: "The ghost city has nothing to do with you, but the area occupied by the old demon of Black Mountain is not small in the Netherworld. I can set aside a small piece of territory for you to deal with!"
"Really?"
The surprise came too suddenly, and all the Xuanxin Taoists were overjoyed. This result was not bad for them.
"There is no need for me to lie to you!"
Lei Hu smiled leisurely and said: "Why not, the small mountain range just fifty miles away from the ghost town, with a radius of about thirty or forty miles, is enough for Xuanxin to operate authentically!"
"Your Excellency is generous!"
Xuanxin Zhengzong, the leader of the Taoist order, bowed and saluted: "If you have any needs in the future, Xuanxin Zhengzong will definitely consider it!"
Upon hearing this, Lei Hu stared at this guy for a long time, smiled slightly and remained silent.
…
Leaving ten magic monks and martial arts masters to take over the ghost city, and fully accepting the Black Mountain Old Demon's territory in the underworld, he led the remaining troops out of the underworld passage, and left some men stationed at the entrance of the passage.
Shi Shiran returned to Heishui River Shenshui Mansion.
"Sir, why are you so generous to Xuanxin Zhengzong!"
"Exactly, they didn't put in much effort in dealing with the old monster from Black Mountain!"
"Looking at the happy faces of the Taoists of Xuanxin Zhengzong, it is obvious that the benefits given to them by the master are enough for Xuanxin Zhengzong to leave a stronghold in the Netherworld. I don't know what they will do in the future!"
"..."
The remaining magic cultivators and martial arts masters also followed. When Lei Hu sat down on the throne, they curiously looked at the environment of Shuifu and couldn't help but start persuading him one after another.
"The reason why I am so generous is just to give Xuanxin Zhengzong a little sweetness!"
Waving his hand, Lei Hu said with a faint smile: "In any case, Xuanxin Zhengzong is the first sect of Daqi Daomen, and its relationship with Daqi royal family and court is too close, but my move is to give them a cold shoulder in the future.
Excuses and opportunities!”
The magic monks and martial arts experts present were stunned for a moment, and then they became very happy when they realized what was happening.
"Sir, are you saying that we will soon cross the Blackwater River?"
One of the martial arts masters couldn't wait to ask: "If that's the case, your actions this time are indeed brilliant!"
"yes!"
Another magic monk echoed: "Just looking at the behavior and reaction of those Xuanxin monks, it is obvious that they are not willing to directly fight with the adults, which just gives them an excuse not to take action!"
Lei Hu smiled lightly. If he wasn't worried that Xuan Xin Zhengzong would have the support of the Shenting boss, he really wouldn't care too much.
Said to be the largest sect in Daqi Daomen, at most there are only two real Yuanshen in command. Lei Hu is not afraid at all if they really want to fight.
After the remaining magic cultivators and martial arts masters left, he put his hand on the colorful gourd hanging around his waist and felt the slight beating of the colorful gourd, and couldn't help but smile.
"Hey Lei Hu, that guy in Hulu Space is very dishonest. Do you want to teach him a lesson and tell him to be more honest and peaceful?"
Calabash's voice suddenly sounded in his mind: "I don't know what you want to do. What's the use of keeping the remnant soul of such a guy?"
"It's good to teach him a lesson!"
Lei Hu used his spiritual thoughts to say to Calabash Baby: "Just use less force. Don't destroy the remaining soul. It will still be of great use in the future!"
"Humph, I don't know what you think!"
In his mind, Calabash Boy snorted disdainfully: "You are obviously so strong, but you still want to play such unworthy tricks!"
"You do not understand!"
Thunder Tiger Spirit replied: "Sometimes, with an extra trump card in your hand, you will be a little more sure and calm when dealing with certain things!"
After saying that, he ignored Calabash Baby's reaction, walked out of Blackwater River Mansion with a smile, and headed straight for the mansion of the King of the Northwest through the clouds and mist.
That's right, the old demon from Montenegro is not completely finished.
Less than one-tenth of its divine soul power was left, and Lei Hu absorbed all of it into the inner space of the colorful gourd, intending to deal with it as a trump card.
The Colorful Gourd suppressed the two demons of snake and scorpion in one go for nearly ten thousand years. Naturally, the remnant souls of the old Black Mountain demons were not a problem. They even had the ability to swallow them all and turn them into nourishment for their own abilities.
Of course, Thunder Tiger would not waste his natural resources so violently. Less than one-tenth of the remaining soul of the old Black Mountain demon may play a very important role at a critical moment. Naturally, the cheap colorful gourd will not be wasted. As a trump card, it is not a waste.
Precious place.
"Order, all the important civil and military ministers in the northwest, who are unable to carry out important official duties at hand, should all come over within half a month and give important orders!"
Returning to the northwest king's official residence, Lei Hu directly handed down the order, which immediately caused waves of ripples among the northwest military and political and supervisory officials.
The King of the Northwest is going to make a big move.
As for the big move, anyone who is not confused can guess it, it is nothing more than crossing the Blackwater River to conquer the hinterland of Daqi.
In other words, the accumulation in the northwest has been sufficient, and it is just right to go on an expedition at this time.
When all the officials from the northwest military administration and supervisory system arrived, Lei Hu said bluntly: "I believe you already know what's going on!"
"That's right, I called you here to start a new journey. First, cross the Blackwater River and capture all areas of the Black Mountain Mountains!"
As soon as this statement came out, it immediately attracted a burst of lively reactions.
"Sir, don't the Black Mountain Mountains belong to the territory of the Black Mountain Old Demon?"
Someone with a bright mind reacted immediately and worried: "If we rush over suddenly, will it cause a bad reaction?"
"it's not a big deal!"
Waving his hand, Lei Hu said calmly: "The old demon of Black Mountain has been dealt with by me. You only need to deal with the cities near the Black Mountain Mountains. As for the cultivation power, I will deal with it myself!"
