Chapter 74 Disha Palace
Chapter 74 Disha Palace
Northwestern region of Zhongzhou.
Mountains of the Dead.
Here is the Soul Palace, one of the twenty-four Earthly Fiend Palaces.
At this moment, in the huge hall, several Soul Hall earth-level guardians were crawling at the bottom of the steps, trembling all over.
"Assholes! How do you do intelligence work? The Fengcheng branch was destroyed by a fish that slipped through the net!"
The Lord of the Branch Temple, the old ghost Zhaixing, sat cross-legged on the jade cushion at the top of the steps with a gloomy expression.
"Heaven, the Heavenly Lord's joy and anger. I...we never expected that Lin Tianfeng, a person who had escaped the net, could break through from the Nine-Star Dou Zong to the Dou Zun realm in just one month, and also let him detect the locations of the branch office and the auction house..." A guardian who was crawling on the ground stammered.
snort!
“Dou Zun? If you guys hadn’t failed to do the finishing work properly, and clearly let Lin Tianfeng escape, but because you were afraid of being punished, you lied and didn’t report it, how could this happen!”
The old ghost Zhaixing snorted coldly, glanced at the people below, then his eyelids drooped, half open and half closed, and said:
"Why are there only three of you? Didn't I remember that there were seven people in your branch? Did they all die at the hands of Lin Tianfeng? And where is the young master?"
The sound floated down.
The people below shuddered when they heard this. The guardian who spoke earlier gritted his teeth and said:
"The helmsman and the others are indeed dead..., and the young master is also seriously injured..."
"Tsk tsk, seriously injured? Hun Ji is the hall master's only child. Tsk tsk, the helmsman, deputy helmsman and others are all dead, and the young master is seriously injured. How come you guys came to me safe and sound? I don't know what you guys are going to face..."
The old ghost Zhaixing's expression was no longer gloomy at this time, and he smiled sinisterly at the few people.
Boom!Boom!Boom!
Several guardians turned pale when they heard this, and banged their heads hard on the stone slabs, with a strong desire to survive on their faces!
"God, please help me! Please, God, save my life!!!"
The tone was extremely mournful, like a cuckoo crying blood.
“Haha, help? You lied and didn’t report it, and this time the Fengcheng branch was attacked, and you guys didn’t do anything. Tsk tsk..., this Heavenly Lord is also in a difficult situation..." The old ghost Zhaixing said jokingly.
Boom! Boom! Boom...
The kowtows stopped abruptly, and everyone heard the hidden meaning in the words of the old ghost Zhaixing.
There is a way...
"Please, Heavenly Lord, save our lives, let us remain useful, and help you solve your problems, even if it means sacrificing our lives!" the three Dharma protectors said in unison.
"Haha, it seems that you are all smart people. I will not keep you in suspense. I originally planned to hand you all over to Tiangang Palace and let you fend for yourself. But, it's your good fortune that an old friend of mine came to visit Benfen Palace recently and happened to ask me for a small favor. I am in need of a few errand boys..."
Halfway through his words, the old ghost Zhaixing narrowed his eyes, looked at the few people with a smile, and said no more.
Seeing this, several people below immediately understood and rushed to say:
"We are willing to share the worries of the Heavenly Lord!"
"Hahahaha, okay, okay! Stand up and talk. It's rare that you have such filial piety..., old friend Mu Gu, you should come and tell them in person!" The old ghost Zhaixing laughed towards the crowd.
After these words were spoken, several people below were shocked.
The next moment, an old man with sparse hair slowly appeared on the high platform.
Seeing this person, the pupils of several guardians shrank slightly, and they quickly lowered their heads again and said in unison:
"We have met Elder Mu Gu!"
"Haha, you guardians are too polite. Don't worry, I won't let you run errands in vain. As the saying goes, if you want the horse to run, you must feed it. I just happened to be itching to do it a while ago, so I refined a few furnaces of elixirs, which are just suitable for people of your level to take."
As he spoke, the old man flicked his fingers, and several small white porcelain bottles shot out from his fingertips toward the people below.
Several people respectfully took the porcelain bottles, one bottle for each of the three people.
"Would you like to open it and take a look?"
Hearing the voice, several people looked up in astonishment and looked at old man Mu Gu in surprise, and saw him smiling at them.
Several people opened the porcelain bottle as instructed, and saw a few pale white pills the size of longan lying quietly in the bottle. As soon as the bottle cap was opened, the pills inside began to tremble slightly as if stimulated by something.
Seeing this, without waiting for the others to show their joy, they reacted and quickly put the bottle cap back on and put the porcelain bottle into the storage ring they carried with them.
"Haha, are the guardians satisfied with this little gift?" Old man Mu Gu stood beside the old ghost Zhaixing with his hands behind his back, and smiled faintly.
"Thank you for the gift, elder!"
The guardians all clasped their fists and said.
Seeing how excited the few people were after receiving the pills, Elder Mu Gu nodded with satisfaction. After exchanging a glance with Elder Zhaixing, his face became serious and he said:
"It's like this, I need you to leave Zhongzhou for a while and help me go to the northwest continent and capture a soul body!"
Hearing this, several guardians looked eager to try.
As everyone knows, the people in the Soul Palace are the best at dealing with soul bodies!
However, after a moment, they vaguely realized that things might not be as simple as they thought, and they couldn't help but suppress the agitation on their faces and asked:
"It is our duty to collect souls, not to give orders. I feel ashamed to accept your gift. What is so special about the soul you need to capture? Is it worthy of your serious treatment?"
"I think you all are familiar with the soul that escaped to the northwest continent. I used to be in the same sect with him. He is the Pavilion Master of the Xingyun Pavilion among the four pavilions of One Palace, One Tower, Two Sects, Three Valleys, and Four Squares. His honorable title is Medicine Venerable, and his name is Yao Chen."
It’s Yao Chen!!!
The people below looked at each other.
Being in Zhongzhou, they were naturally familiar with the name of Medicine Master. They also knew a little about the grudge between him and Old Man Mu Gu, as well as some things that happened in the past.
However, they had never expected that the task assigned to them was to capture Yao Chen!
Yao Chen is the Pavilion Master of the Xingyun Pavilion, and his cultivation has reached the peak of Dou Zun. Although it is unknown how strong he is after his body was severely injured and shattered, it is believed that he should not be underestimated.
After all, a lean camel is bigger than a horse, and this mission is quite difficult!
"Haha, you guys don't have to worry too much. Yao Chen is just a weak soul now. It's more than enough for you guys to capture him. The only difficulty is that it will take some time to find his trace! Although the Northwest Continent is just a remote corner, it is also vast..."
Glancing at the fleeting difficulty on several people's faces, old man Mu Gu laughed.
Just as the guardians' faces relaxed, the old ghost Zhaixing on the cushion in the main hall spoke up:
“You are not going there just for this one mission. Didn’t Lin Tianfeng flee to the northwest continent with his wife and daughter? You can find out where he is when you go there. When you capture Yao Chen’s soul, tell me the location of Lin Tianfeng. If you do these two things well, then your merits will be counted as failures…”
