Su Xiaoniu turned to Wen Chenglin and said, "You don't seem to be a bad person. Besides, I have many friends in the Zhengyi League. Since you have been "meritorious in protecting the emperor," I will give you these dead souls as a reward."
Wen Chenglin was still looking at Su Xiaonu with admiration, looking so provocative that I really wanted to kick him in the ass. But when he heard the words, "These ghosts and wretched spirits are yours as a reward," Wen Chenglin jumped for joy. He excitedly said, "My respected goddess, are you serious? Are you really going to give them to me?"
Su Xiaoniu nodded calmly. Wen Chenglin was so excited that he almost went crazy. He quickly took out his red dragon flag and gently waved it at the countless ghosts and wraiths wandering nearby. Instantly, all the ghosts were sucked into his flag.
I curiously asked Su Xiaoniu, "Why is Wen Chenglin so excited about you giving these undead souls to him? It seems like he's even more excited than if you gave him beautiful women?"
Su Xiaoniu told me, "Because the Zhengyi League's mission has always been to 'capture ghosts and seal demons,' anyone who comes down from the mountain and wanders the mortal world must have received some instructions to do so. And if they can subdue a large number of evil spirits along the way, even if they don't complete the mission in the end, their achievements will have been offset. Furthermore, the undead spirits I've refined with my Soul Controlling Technique are extremely ferocious and brutal. Possessing them would greatly enhance one's own strength, yet I'm giving them to him like a toy. How can he not be happy?"
I gasped in surprise: "Why don't you send me off?"
Su Xiaoniu glared at me and said, "You have me, that's enough. What do you need them for?"
I was speechless. That's right, as long as I have Su Xiaoniu, I can always find a group of undead spirits for me... Besides, if I give it to Wen Chenglin, he admires Su Xiaoniu so much and his Taoism is quite advanced, maybe I can bribe him with this, and maybe even use it in the future!
To destroy the corpse, I gifted Lao Liu's body with a ball of Samadhi Fire, burning him to ash and charcoal, which drifted into the air. In the distance, Wen Chenglin had already collected these undead souls into his Red Dragon Banner, happily holding the banner in his pocket, enjoying himself.
I rolled my eyes speechlessly, looking at the villa. Many places were damaged. It seemed that the repair costs would be a lot of money, but for Zhao Xi, it was no problem at all. There was no one in the villa anymore. The bodyguards and nanny had been removed by Zhao Xi long ago, and now it was an empty villa.
"Let's go, catch Huo Liang!" I grabbed Su Xiaoniu's wrist and headed toward the city center. After walking quite a distance, I realized that Wen Chenglin had actually followed us... I didn't feel like he was just a follower; instead, I felt like a "strategy had succeeded." What's this called... well, if you want to get something, you must first give it. And also, "playing hard to get."
Wen Chenglin now respects and admires Su Xiaoniu completely, even though he knows that Su Xiaoniu is a ghost... Although I don't know whether Su Xiaoniu has had this intention for a long time, it doesn't matter now. We came to the city center and took a taxi directly to a hotel.
I have a peach branch in my hand. Long ago, Su Xiaoniu used the Peach Evil method to let the little ghost controlled by Old Liu track them to their residence. Now, I only need to communicate with the peach branch and quickly find the place where the little ghost with the Peach Evil mark had gone, which is where Huo Liang is.
But none of us can guarantee whether Huo Liang escaped beforehand... Or maybe I'm really a pessimist. When we arrived at the hotel with Taozhi, Huo Liang had already disappeared without a trace. He did leave a note that read, "Xu Fei! It's you again! Every time my plans fall short, you disrupt them... Just wait and see. Even if I can't get the Candle Dragon Blood, I can still find a way to make myself stronger. You still don't know the true use of the Sui Hou Ghost Pearl, right? Don't worry, there are only three hundred days left, and I will make you regret it!"
Looking at the note, the handwriting was a bit sloppy, it must have been written in a hurry. It's also possible that Huo Liang had just run away and if he chased him, he might still be able to catch up. However, when I saw him mention the "Sui Hou Ghost Pearl" and the remaining "three hundred days", I was very curious.
The true purpose of the Suihou Ghost Pearl... might be the key to a certain super tomb, I know that, but of course I can't rule out other uses. As for these three hundred days... I suddenly thought of Su Xiaoniu. We might only have three hundred days left...
But what I am thinking about now is whether there is any connection between the three hundred days mentioned by Huo Liang and the three hundred days mentioned by Su Xiaoniu?
