"It doesn't matter. The other party's methods are very clever. No matter how careful you are, it won't help."
After comforting An Yue, the owner of the voice said calmly, "The visitor is a guest. My Taoist friends have followed me all the way here. Please show up."
Hearing this, Xu Chunniang, who was hiding in the dark, was very surprised. She didn't know who the other party was, but she actually drank her whole body in one go.
Even Long Yu, who was in the Heavenly Demon Empress Realm, couldn't see through her concealment skills. Is it possible that the opponent's cultivation level was higher than Long Yu's?
When she hesitated, the voice continued.
"Fellow Taoist, there is no need to panic. You are able to find this place because you and I are destined. Since we are destined, why not show up and meet?"
Xu Chunniang thought for a moment, then finally withdrew from hiding and revealed her figure.
Seeing the familiar figure, An Yue's pupils dilated silently, it turned out to be her!
She suppressed the shock in her heart and looked at Xu Chunniang thoughtfully, with a smile on her lips.
"Sister Xu is so clever. She followed me so far, but I didn't notice anything. If the Lord hadn't reminded me, I would still be in the dark right now."
Xu Chunniang's expression was as usual, "Sister An Yue is no less generous. On the surface, she is a personal soldier of His Highness, but secretly she has another master. The heavy fog before and the two blue-eyed puppets that suddenly appeared, I think I can't get away from my sister." Does it matter?"
An Yue blinked, "I don't understand what Sister Xu is talking about. That blue-eyed puppet is so powerful. How can I control it?"
"You can't control it, but your master may not. It shouldn't be difficult to quietly clear out such a secret passage in the ancient cemetery and secretly control two blue-eyed puppets, right?"
The smile on An Yue's face faded a little. She was about to speak, but after hearing the master's message, her expression immediately became respectful and complicated.
An Yue glanced at Xu Chunniang, feeling a little strange in her heart. She didn't know how the other party could catch the Lord's eyes and actually get the Lord's summons.
"Sister Xu, to be honest, the heavy fog and the sudden appearance of the blue-eyed puppet were the work of our Lord. Our Lord wants to see you, please come with me."
Xu Chunniang glanced at the mass graves not far away. There were broken bones and a strong aura of evil and resentment everywhere, and there were also some weird black shadows floating above the tombs.
Just standing at the entrance makes me feel uncomfortable, and if I step inside, it will only become more depressing.
Xu Chunniang stood there and had no intention of following An Yue into the mass grave.
"Your master said that the visitor is a guest. How can a guest show up, but the host hides his head and tail? I am standing here. I want to see you. It is your master who comes to see me."
A chill appeared on An Yue's face, and her eyes became unkind. Why hadn't she noticed in the past that Xu Chunniang was so bold?
How could your Lord be so condescending as to come to see her?
She was about to scold the other party when she heard a low laugh.
"Fellow Taoist is right. As a host, I cannot neglect my distinguished guest."
As soon as he finished speaking, a gust of cold wind blew by, and the sky over the graveyard suddenly became dark.
Then a "bang" sound was heard, and a stone slab broke out from under a certain tomb, revealing a corner of the tomb underneath the tomb.
When Xu Chunniang heard the sound and looked over, she saw a black bone hand appearing on the edge of the tomb.
Immediately afterwards, a black skeleton jumped out of the tomb. He turned his two empty eye holes and looked in her direction, grinning silently.
This scene is really weird, but Xu Chunniang is well-informed, so naturally she will not be frightened by a skeleton.
She looked at the evil skeleton in front of her, and while secretly guessing the origin of the other party, she secretly increased her vigilance.
Anyone who dares to practice in the depths of the ancient cemetery and take advantage of the evil and resentment here is definitely a ruthless person!
Seemingly sensing Xu Chunniang's fear, the skeleton did not move rashly. The earth and rocks under its feet quickly piled up, and in just a few breaths, a throne was formed.
The skeleton sat on the throne, and a wine bottle appeared on its right hand with distinct joints.
He raised his hand and poured the wine from the bottle into his mouth. Some black liquid slowly flowed out of the wine bottle, fell into the skeleton's mouth, and then disappeared.
Xu Chunniang stared at the black liquid in the wine cup with a little more fear in her eyes.
What is in this wine bottle is not wine, but an extremely rich aura of evil and resentment!
The air of evil resentment can devour the mind and corrode the human heart, so evil creatures such as evil bone puppets and resentment demons are only as powerful as they are powerful, but their intelligence is very low.
The skeleton in front of me is not an evil creature with low intelligence, but it can use the energy of evil and resentment for its own use. This method is inferior to the evil bone puppets and resentful demons who only know how to swallow the energy of evil and resentment without thinking. How much better.
After the black-bone skeleton drank the contents of the bottle, he smacked his mouth twice without wanting to finish it. Then he looked at Xu Chunniang and asked straight to the point, "Did you come here for the Yin Shen Pearl?"
Xu Chunniang neither admitted nor denied, "Could it be that what you want is not Yin Shen Pearl?"
"The Yin Chen Bead is a fourth-level holy object. Naturally, everyone wants it. But I am not only here for the Yin Chen Bead."
The black-bone skull grinned even more, looking happy.
"You must have noticed, fellow Taoist, that the evil and resentful atmosphere here is a great tonic for me. Even if I can't get the Gloomy Bead, it's not a loss for me to come here.
But I am a person who always likes to maximize profits. I have come here, and if I don’t get more benefits, wouldn’t this trip be in vain? But if fellow Taoist wants the Yin Shen Pearl, I won't be able to give in. "
Xu Chunniang looked at the black skeleton carefully, not believing even a word of his words.
Even Yin Shenzhu is willing to give in. He is either lying or... he has a bigger conspiracy!
Seeing Xu Chunniang's silence, the Black Bone Skull seemed to have guessed what she was thinking, and said quietly, "An Yue, give her the map of Yin Shen Zhu."
"My lord!"
An Yue raised her head in disbelief, and was about to say something more, but she saw the black-bone skeleton raised his hand to stop talking, "Don't let me say it a second time."
"……yes!"
An Yue was unwilling to give in, but she didn't dare to go against the master's idea. She took out the map and presented it to Xu Chunniang.
"Sister Xu, this is the map that the Lord asked me to give you. Nine times out of ten, the Gloomy Pearl exists in this map."
Xu Chunniang looked at the map, but did not pick it up. She only looked at the black skeleton.
"What do you mean by this?"
The black-bone skeleton said disapprovingly, "This is my little sincerity. Of course, things are not given for free. I need fellow Taoists to do something for me.
As long as fellow Taoist is willing to help me, this map will be yours. Not only that, I will also help you get the Gloomy Bead. "
"It must be difficult for you to pay such a high price and even give up the Yin Shen Pearl. What you want me to do for you is not easy, right?"
