Seeing Zhou Wuyou lying there upright, Hong Zhan was silent for a while, and he still remembered the scene when he asked Zhou Wuyou for help before.
At that time, Zhou Wuyou patted his chest and said a trivial matter, promising to catch Mr. Ghost and mentioning the condition that he would need to take something from Mr. Ghost as a reward.
But ...... is this in front of you?
Zhou Wuyou's pale and green-haired face turned red unconsciously, and said: "There is something unexpected, the zombie spirit has been nourished by the dragon vein for too long, and it is a little tenacious."
After a moment of silence, Hong Zhan comforted: "Forget it, I haven't been able to keep Mr. Ghost's soul either. In the future, I will find a way to catch Mr. Ghost, and Sect Master Zhou will subdue his body first."
If you blame Zhou Wuyou, it will make Zhou Jingxuan caught in the middle and difficult to do, and the result is like this, what's the use of pursuing it?
Zhou Jingxuan sighed lightly on the side, let go of her heart, and at the same time looked at her third uncle complainingly.
Zhou Wuyou was so depressed, what could he do, who let himself make a mistake? He could only continue to suppress the zombie spirit first.
Zhou Jingxuan asked curiously: "How are you fighting? Why did even the coffin lid explode?"
Hong Zhan described what happened before.
"Mr. Ghost is really amazing." Zhou Jingxuan sighed.
"Yes! However, even if he escapes, his soul should have been severely damaged." Hong Zhan said with an affirmative expression, and then he asked: "Do you know the approximate location of Mr. Ghost?"
"Previously, the south was full of golden light, and it should not be difficult to find Mr. Ghost's direction, but what's the use of going now? Mr. Ghost must have run away early." Zhou Jingxuan was puzzled.
Hong Zhan turned his head to look at Xiaozhu and said: "Xiaozhu, can I trouble you with something?"
"What's the matter, tell me." Xiaozhu's eyes lit up, as if he was expecting.
"Please help me inquire about Mr. Ghost's situation and see what happened after his soul escaped from the underworld. Hong Zhan said.
"No problem." Xiaozhu said, and then curiously: "Aren't you going?"
"Fairy Zhou and I are going to protect Sect Master Zhou. By the way, when you come back, if you can't find us, go to another cave to find us." Hong Zhan pointed out another location to Xiaozhu.
Xiaozhu was confused, but nodded and said, "Okay, you wait."
Then, Xiaozhu swam out of the cave, soared into the sky, and flew to the sky.
Hong Zhan turned to Zhou Wuyou and said: "Sect Master Zhou, Fairy Zhou and I are protecting you outside the cave."
"Okay!" Zhou Wuyou responded.
Then, Hong Zhan took Zhou Jingxuan out of the cave and sealed the cave. He took Zhou Jingxuan to another valley.
"Did you deliberately take Xiaozhu away?" Zhou Jingxuan said curiously.
"Did you tell them about the process of our previous wedding?" Hong Zhan asked with a serious expression.
"Not yet, after the soul returned, I have been worried about your safety, and I haven't had time to tell them in detail." Zhou Jingxuan shook her head and said.
Hong Zhan took a soft breath and then said: "Then don't say it."
"Huh?" Zhou Jingxuan said curiously.
"If that kind of thing leaks out, it will definitely attract some people's covetousness, although your third uncle and Xiaozhu's character is fine, but I am worried that they will not be able to keep the secret, and it may bring disaster to us then." Hong Zhan said.
Zhou Jingxuan thought for a while, nodded seriously, and then asked: "What if my third uncle asks?"
"Let's just say that we found the Yin Hou Seal in the Siyou Hall, and there is a way to regain the Yin Tianzi Seal, if there is anything that cannot be explained, you can push me down, just say that I led the whole process." Hong Zhan said seriously.
Zhou Jingxuan nodded gently and said, "Okay!"
"My Yin Tianzi Seal sensed that you have a connection with the Sea of Clouds Covering the Sky Formation, right? Is it the last gift of your ancestors?" Hong Zhan asked.
"Yes, there is a seismic cauldron in the Sea of Clouds Covering the Sky, I can collect it, but it is extremely troublesome." Zhou Jingxuan said.
"Don't bother, I will use the Yin Tianzi Seal to help you collect that zhending, remember, only you and I know about this zhending, don't let outsiders know about it anymore." Hong Zhan said seriously.
Although it is not clear what the Zhending is, Zhou Youtian's gift will definitely not be bad.
"Hmm!" Zhou Jingxuan nodded.
"Then let's start!" Hong Zhan said.
He reached out and waved his hand, and the Yin Tianzi Seal appeared in his palm, he urged it with his soul power, and the Yin Tianzi Seal instantly emitted a black light.
Rumble! A thunderous explosion suddenly sounded in the sky. Then, countless clouds appeared out of thin air, covering all directions of Ten Thousand Demon Island, and exploded with thunder, causing countless monks to look up at the sky.
Zhou Jingxuan quickly sat cross-legged, and a small purple cauldron phantom appeared between her eyebrows.
Boom! Countless thunder and lightning exploded from the sea of clouds, slashing all over Ten Thousand Demon Island.
"Be careful!" Countless monks avoided one after another.
One of the purple thunder and lightning rushed straight towards Zhou Jingxuan, and with a bang, it turned into a pillar of thunder and lightning that wrapped Zhou Jingxuan and maintained it.
Buzz! A bronze cauldron fell from this pillar of thunder and lightning, heading straight for Zhou Jingxuan.
Zhou Jingxuan opened her mouth and sucked hard.
The bronze cauldron suddenly became smaller, getting smaller and smaller, and finally fell into her mouth and was swallowed by her in one bite.
Rumble! The thunder and lightning pillar exploded and scattered, and the sea of clouds made a loud noise again, countless thunder and lightning exploded and dispersed, and then, the thunderclouds all over the sky dispersed in a strange way.
For a while, the sky over Ten Thousand Demons Island was cloudless and clear, and countless monks saw that their eyes widened, not understanding what had happened just now.
Zhou Jingxuan was surrounded by electric arcs, and she said anxiously: "The power of the Zhending is so strong, I want to retreat and refine it immediately, otherwise I can't bear it."
"Go to the new place I just mentioned to Xiaozhu for retreat, and I will move Zhou Wuyou there as well." Hong Zhan said.
Zhou Jingxuan nodded, she went to retreat first, but Hong Zhan went back to move Zhou Wuyou quickly.
It was another valley, there were several caves in the valley that Hong Zhen had dug earlier, Zhou Jingxuan entered a cave for retreat, and Zhou Wuyou was moved into another cave for retreat.
Hong Zhan sat at the entrance of the cave, continuing to study the Yin Tianzi Seal.
-----
A few hours later, Xiaozhu came back.
"Hong Zhan, Mr. Ghost ran away early, and nothing was left at the scene." Xiaozhu said from a distance. Then it said: "Look, who did I bring back?"
Hong Zhan raised his eyes and saw two men in black following Xiaozhu.
"Is it really a young master?"
"Meet the young master."
The two looked happy and hurriedly bowed. They were all subordinates of Hong Zhan.
"How are you with Xiaozhu?" Hong Zhan said unexpectedly.
One person said: "We once interrogated a big red soldier and learned that the young master and Fairy Zhou had saved a green snake demon king in the immortal fetus realm. We were attracted by Mr. Ghost's formation before, and we happened to see the Green Snake Demon King who was coming, so the two of us asked the young master for clues first, and the others hid for the time being."
Hong Zhan instantly understood the whole story, he turned his head to look at Xiaozhu and said: "I'm afraid I'm going to trouble you to run again. I still have a group of subordinates, I hope you can help me pick it up."
Xiaozhu looked at the two of them uncomfortably and said: "You guys are really troublesome, wouldn't it be nice to come over with me all at once just now?"
"Senior, forgive me, I was too cautious."
"Senior, don't blame me, I'll make amends to you."
The two immediately smiled and saluted Xiaozhu.
"Forget it, run left and right one more time, who will lead the way for me?" Xiaozhu said.
The two looked at each other, and one of them said: "You go, I will report to the young master about the situation during this period first."
"Okay!" The other nodded.
Xiaozhu didn't care, set off a gust of wind, swept the man up into the sky, and flew away.
"Ye Yu, tell me about what happened to you during this time." Hong Zhan looked at the people who stayed behind and asked.
The man's appearance was extremely ordinary, but his eyes were extremely cold.
"That day, after the young master pulled out the God Slayer Knife, I fell into the river together and was swept away by the water, and after I climbed ashore one after another, I went up the river and returned to the cliff where I fell, but found an underwater grotto there, there were several spirit pools in the grottoes, I used that as a base, while using the spirit pool to improve my cultivation, I took turns to inquire about the news of the young master." Ye Yu said.
Hong Zhan nodded and said, "What then?"
Ye Yu was silent for a while and said: "I am different from others, I got an inheritance of an immortal cultivator in that grotto."
"Oh?" Hong Zhan said curiously.
"There is a stone in the grotto, it has no effect on others to touch it, only when I touch it, a black light poured into my mind, it was the remnants of an immortal cultivator, he talked to me a lot in my mind, and finally it disappeared, and it also passed on a lot of things to me. He said, his name is Liuren." Ye Yu said.
"Liu Ren?" Hong Zhan's pupils shrank.
"He said that he was once a courtier of Zhou Youtian, and was later arranged by Zhou Youtian to guard the tomb of a holy queen here. However, he kept it for too long until he ran out of longevity. He said that in his later years, he had a pet crow and wanted to cultivate a crow as an heir, but later found out that the crow was misbehaving, so he gave up." Ye Yu said.
Hong Zhan suddenly understood many things.
Liu Ren is a courtier of Zhou Youtian? The Liuren Yin Coffin should be a treasure specially for him to enter and exit the underworld.
Also, the sword spirit of the God Slayer Knife was bound by chains, which may also be from the hands of this Liuren.
"Liu Ren's residual thoughts, why did he choose you?" Hong Zhan asked curiously.
"He said that I am a shadow physique like him, and only I can practice his assassination method, and he said he hopes that after I get his inheritance, I will continue to guard the tomb for him." Ye Yu said.
"The way of assassination?" Hong Zhan said unexpectedly.
"This Liu Ren should be the same as me, and he is also a secret guard of the dynasty." Ye Yu said.
"You are so lucky to have such an inheritance." Hong Zhan nodded, and then asked seriously: "Do you have any plans next?"
Ye Yu immediately guessed Hong Zhan's intentions, and he bowed very solemnly: "Back then, my parents were killed by traitors, and it was the emperor who risked his life to avenge the minister.
I still remember my mother's last gratitude and regretful smile when she received the emperor's promise to take care of her before she died.
This time the emperor took us into the innate realm, and I was also the first to be given the elixir.
It is difficult for ministers to repay the emperor's favor even if they die. As long as the emperor does not drive me away, I will be the emperor's minister for the rest of my life."
He and Ye Yu have known each other for more than 20 years, Ye Yu has always been his right-hand man, and he also trusts him very much, and at the same time, he also firmly believes that his future achievements will be worthy of Ye Yu's loyalty.
"Then continue to be my courtier." Hong Zhan smiled and patted Ye Yu on the shoulder.
"Yes!" Ye Yu said happily, and then he immediately said: "Regarding the inheritance of Liuren, I will sort it out for the emperor as soon as possible."
"No, keep it for yourself. I won't take advantage of the opportunity of the courtiers." Hong Zhan shook his head and said.
"But......" Ye Yu frowned slightly.
"No need, protect your secrets, don't let anyone know about this. You are still the commander-in-chief of Daqing's secret guards, but from now on, I will add more burden to you." Hong Zhan said.
"Yes!" Ye Yu was moved.
It didn't take long for Xiaozhu to take over Hong Zhan's subordinates, many of them, all alive, and everyone showed great joy when they saw Hong Zhan.
"Meet the young master." Everyone bowed excitedly.
"What kind of cultivation do you have?" Hong Zhan asked curiously.
"The eighth level of the minister's innate heaven realm."
"I am the ninth layer of the innate heaven realm."
……
Their cultivation levels were all eighth and ninth, and as for Ye Yu, they had reached the tenth level of the innate realm.
"You are lucky." Hong Zhan smiled.
"It's all the blessings of Young Master Togo and Fairy Zhou." Everyone laughed one after another.
