The other party came faster than expected.
That night, a ghost shrouded in black mist came to Taohuaping to visit the village.
Coincidentally, Lu Zheng happened to be in Taohua Village at this time, and went out to greet guests with Shen Ying. He carefully looked at the ghost, but he couldn't tell what the other person's cultivation level was.
"Who is your Excellency?"
"The name of "Seven Codes of Obscurity" is too famous. I accidentally showed up and attracted attention. Please forgive me, Fairy Peach Blossom."
This ghost stood outside Peach Blossom Manor, eight feet tall, covered in black mist. No matter how closely Lu Zheng and Shen Ying looked at it, they couldn't see it clearly.
Lu Zheng smiled slightly, "But you have to give me a title, right?"
The ghost said calmly, "You two just call me Ghost King."
"Okay, Your Excellency Ghost King, the information you inquired about is actually wrong. The Black Wheel King did not die in my village at that time." Shen Ying said calmly.
The Ghost King nodded, "I know, but didn't he die in the hands of Mr. Lu shortly afterwards?"
Lu Zheng's heart skipped a beat and he raised his eyebrows, "How did you know?"
Only his relatives, friends and people from Zhenyi Division know about this matter. Could it be that...
"I have no intention of being an enemy of the imperial court in the underworld. Even though I sent many people, I never caused trouble in the underworld. Instead, I asked you to kill many of my men." The Ghost King said calmly.
Seeing Lu Zheng's doubts, the Ghost King continued, "I just killed a policeman from Yizhou Prefecture and took away his soul and memory."
Damn it!
While saying that he was not an enemy of the Yangjian court, he casually killed a policeman!
Well...you can't look at ancient times with modern moral standards. Lu Zheng is still getting used to it.
"So." Ghost King said, "I'm here to discuss business with you two."
"Business?"
The Ghost King nodded, "Yes, I have killed all the ghosts that the Black Wheel King has sneaked into the underworld after he obtained the Yang Refining Chapter."
Lu Zheng and Shen Ying looked at each other.
What the other party meant by this was that now he was the only one who knew that Lu Zheng had the Yang Yang chapter in the "Seven Codes of Obscurity".
In addition, he said before that he had no intention of becoming an enemy of the Yangjian court... so this sentence was both a release of goodwill and a threat, depending on how each other understood it.
Shen Ying couldn't help but look at Lu Zheng. Lu Zheng nodded, so Shen Ying turned sideways and said, "Please!"
"Thank you!"
The ghost king returned the greeting, then followed the two of them into Peach Blossom Manor.
Sure enough... Are people who are skilled in art bold?
The eighteen heavenly ladies all appeared together and stood around the front hall, forming a formation of heavenly ladies, but they did not start.
The ghost king was unmoved at all and sat naturally on the seat in the front hall.
Lu Zheng and Shen Ying also took their seats.
"what business?"
"Exchange of techniques." The ghost king looked at Lu Zheng and Shen Ying, "I exchanged a technique from the "Seven Codes of Darkness" for the Yang Yang chapter."
Is this what you had in mind?
Lu Zheng asked, "Are you so sure that the Yang Yang Chapter is in our hands?"
When the Ghost King heard this, he smiled slightly and said, "It's confirmed now."
Damn it!
These are all old monsters!
Lu Zheng narrowed his eyes, and his mood at this time was not very beautiful.
The other party first said that only he knew that the Black Wheel King had sneaked into the underworld, and then said that he wanted a fair exchange of skills and enough face. It could be said that there was only one way left for Lu Zheng and Shen Ying.
But... Shen Ying's face was cold, and Lu Zheng's face was indifferent. You pull and hit, do you really think we will be afraid?
The ghost king's eyes flashed, and then he smiled slightly and said, "There is an article called "Soul Refining Chapter" in the "Seven Codes of Obscurity". It is a cultivation method of the ghost and immortal lineage that can refine and enhance the soul. After it is completed, the soul can be whitened. The sun travels and travels across the heaven and earth.”
"Deal!" Lu Zheng made a decisive decision.
The Ghost King couldn't help but smile, "Young Master Lu is really happy, but..."
"Just what?"
"It's just that the "Soul Refining Chapter" is not in my hands at this time."
Lu Zheng stared, "Are you kidding me?"
"Of course not. Not only did I not play tricks on you two, but I was very sincere."
The Ghost King waved his hand and said, "I have collected three chapters of the "Seven Codes of Obscurity", and the remaining "Soul Refining Chapter" is among my goals. I originally wanted to use the three chapters. I came to exchange a certain article, but I just saw Peach Blossom Fairy and realized that "Soul Refining Chapter" is the most suitable."
"I see."
"So, if you two agree, you can wait until I get the "Soul Refining Chapter" and then exchange it with you." The Ghost King said.
Lu Zheng nodded, it was okay.
"Master Lu is so refreshing. It's really comfortable to discuss business with you two."
The ghost king stood up and quickly left Peach Blossom Village. Then his figure became darker and darker, and he quickly disappeared.
Lu Zheng and Shen Ying stood at the door for a long time.
"How?" Shen Ying asked.
"I haven't seen the depth. Maybe I can't easily defeat us, but I have the confidence to escape." Lu Zheng said.
They are both thousand-year-old foxes, and the prerequisite for equal trade is that they are of similar strength.
The Ghost King might not really have any intention of becoming an enemy of the Yangjian court, but if he could kill Lu Zheng and the others casually, he probably wouldn't mind getting "Yang Yang Chapter" earlier.
However, Peach Blossom Manor was due to Shen Ying's advantageous location and the formation of the Peach Blossom Goddess. Together, they could not be defeated by ordinary masters. In addition, Lu Zheng's momentum was extremely strong, he could fly into the sky and escape from the earth, and his cultivation was astonishing.
The Ghost King was not sure of a quick victory. Once the fight made a big fuss and attracted experts from the Suppressing Yi Division or Taoist priests from Baiyun Temple, he might not be able to escape easily.
In this case...
Shen Ying and Shen Ying belong to the land of the earth, and there is no conflict of interest with him in the netherworld. Why can't they exchange it peacefully?
What's more, what he exchanged for was the other party's most useful "Soul Refining Chapter".
As for the possibility that the Ghost King was bluffing, but was actually not very strong... although there was, it was indeed too small to be ignored.
"The other party has taken the "Refining the Yang Chapter", so he won't come to cause trouble in the underworld, right?" Shen Ying was still a little worried.
Lu Zheng shook his head, "If he had a brain, he wouldn't do such a thing. The last time the Black Wheel King did such a thing, the grass on his grave was three feet high."
The owner of the "Refining Yang Chapter" himself, Dharma King Huiming, did not do such a thing, which shows that coming to the underworld to absorb Yang Qi is not the optimal solution to practicing the "Refining Yang Chapter".
"Okay, I didn't expect this matter to be resolved in such a way. I thought I needed to fight with the other party." Lu Zheng said with a smile.
"I didn't expect that either."
Shen Ying leaned against Lu Zheng and couldn't help but think of King Yelan's arrogance and domineering back then, and laughed softly, "Nowadays, even the ghost king in the Netherworld can't easily control us."
"Exactly!"
Lu Zheng laughed, turned around and picked up Shen Ying, "It's already late at night. Madam and husband, let's go back to the house to rest together."
"Okay!" Shen Ying raised her head slightly, smiled and leaned close to Lu Zheng's face, gently licking his earlobe, "I will take good care of my husband~"
