Chapter 228 Sister and Brother Catching a Monster
Half a month later, in a dilapidated temple ten kilometers away from Zhengyi Peak, a demon was lying on a burly man, sucking his life. There were four other people beside him, who had turned into mummies.
"You monster! How dare you suck the essence of a living person in broad daylight? Die." There was a sudden roar from outside, and then three yellow talismans flew in.
"Soul-Calming Division!" The demon was startled and immediately turned into a pink light and flew away.
But just as she flew up and hit the roof, she was unexpectedly blocked by the talisman light and fell to the ground. Now she showed a panic expression and swung her palm to hit the leaky wooden window of the dilapidated temple, but the evil spirit touched it and was bounced away by the talisman light again.
At this time, talismans appeared around the ruined temple, surrounding the demon. The light emitted covered her, leaving the demon nowhere to hide.
"Zhengyi Talisman? You are a disciple of Zhengyi Taoism!" The charm demon was naturally familiar with the Zhengyi Taoism's skills and shouted quickly.
Gongsun Haoyun flew down from the hole in the roof, carrying a white flying sword on his back. In a few years, he had grown into a handsome young man.
“You monster, you know I am from the Zhengyi sect, yet you still dare to commit crimes here? Just surrender and accept punishment in the Soul-Calming Tower.” Gongsun Haoyun formed seals with his hands and pressed down with a suspended talisman to seal her.
"Wait, I absorbed the life energy of these people in order to save the Drunken Taoist." The demon screamed.
"How dare you! My uncle is guarding the gate to the earth. How dare a little demon slander my uncle's reputation? Capture him." Gongsun Haoyun cast an incantation, and three talismans fell, sealing the demon.
Then he waved his hand and put the demon into the Qiankun bag. Every member of the Soul-Suppressing Bureau had one of these magic weapons, which were specially used to hold captured demons.
After taking away the demon, Gongsun Haoyun looked proud as he glanced at the dead people. After making sure they were dead, he flew away on his sword.
Returning to the Soul-Calming Division, Gongsun Haoyun registered in the hall and released the demon. However, because of the seal with the talisman, she could not escape even though she appeared here. Moreover, the hall of the Soul-Calming Division was guarded by a large formation. Even without the talisman, the demon could not get out.
As soon as she came out, she said, "I really did this to save the Drunken Taoist. If you don't believe me, you can go to the gate of the underworld and see. The Drunken Taoist has turned into a stone statue because he has exhausted his vitality. As long as I collect enough vitality, I can make him recover."
"If you keep talking nonsense, I will destroy your demon body and scatter your soul." Gongsun Haoyun snorted coldly.
The staff heard this and laughed, "Brother Gongsun, the demon we caught this time is different. It's an old acquaintance!"
“Hmph, you believe it too.” Gongsun Haoyun rolled his eyes. After the other party finished registering, he prepared to take the charm demon away and bring it to the Soul-Suppressing Tower.
"You will harm the Drunken Taoist. I am his wife. You suppress me without finding out the reason. You are ashamed of the Zhengyi Sect." The demon roared.
"How dare you! How can a small demon like you comment on the reputation of my Zhengyi Sect? Take it away." Gongsun Haoyun once again made a hand gesture and took the demon away.
"Isn't this Senior Brother Gongsun? What kind of monster have you caught? You've become a monster catching maniac. How many have you caught in the past two years? Aren't you exhausted?" He was just about to leave when Jin Xuan came over with a smile. The child back then has grown into a handsome young man, but those cunning eyes haven't changed at all.
There was an honest-looking monk following him, who was naturally the inseparable Monk Shi. However, he was not bald. He had short hair, a red dot between his eyebrows, and wore clothes in yellow and red, looking very delicate and handsome.
"Jin Xuan, you've been lazy again. If Zhou Ling finds out, you'll definitely be punished." Gongsun Haoyun said with a smile.
"Hey, Senior Brother Gongsun, you have made a lot of achievements anyway, so give me this little demon. I haven't caught any demon this month, and I can't let myself end up with nothing and be laughed at. It's okay for people to laugh at me, but those guys in the Soul-Suppressing Division will laugh at us, the Zhengyi Sect, don't you think?" Jin Xuan chuckled.
"You? Never mind. I'll give it to you." Gongsun Haoyun had no choice but to throw the Qiankun bag to him.
"Thank you, Senior Brother Gongsun." Jin Xuan waved his hand and chuckled.
Monk Shi said, "Jin Xuan, you have been carrying a duck egg for three years. Why did you come to your senses today and want to pick the duck egg?"
"Tsk, how dare you talk about me? You're not a loser either." Jin Xuan snorted.
"I am practicing hard and have no time to catch monsters. My triple heavenly tribulation is about to come, and you have just entered the third level of innateness." Monk Shi said.
"Hmph, so what? Let's go and find Uncle Zui," said Jin Xuan.
"Jin Xuan, you don't really believe what this demon says, do you? You don't know what kind of person Master Zui is. How could he possibly marry a wife, and a demon at that?" Monk Shi said in surprise.
"You'll know when you get there. I'm leaving now. You're so nagging." Jin Xuan smiled, ran out of the Soul-Calming Division, set up a flying ring and flew away.
"Wait for me." Monk Shi shouted and turned into golden light to chase after him.
In the valley where the gate to the earth was located, the two men flew down on their magic weapons. As soon as they got close to here, they sensed the dark energy and felt that something must have happened here.
When they fell to the bottom of the valley, they were both shocked to see the stone statue of the Drunken Taoist.
Shi Heshang approached the stone statue, touched it with his hand, and input his true energy. He could clearly feel that the stone was alive, and it was definitely the breath of the Drunken Taoist.
"It's really the drunk uncle!" Monk Shi screamed.
Jin Xuan immediately released the demon and asked excitedly, "Who turned Master Zui into this?"
When the demon demon saw that she was brought here, all the grievances and worries in her heart were released at once. She cried out loud, and after a while of pain and venting her emotions, she told the whole story.
Monk Shi sighed and closed his eyes to chant. Jin Xuan angrily said, "The Underworld!"
"Jin Xuan, don't be impulsive. With the strength of the two of us, we are no match for the Underworld. I think we should inform Senior Sister about this matter." Monk Shi knew Jin Xuan too well. He was straightforward and loyal. He would definitely not stand idly by in such a situation.
Jin Xuan clenched his fists tightly, and after a while he said, "I know, we are all too weak now. The eldest sister is the reincarnation of the fairy Kong Ling, and now she has recovered her memory. I wonder if she still regards herself as a disciple of the Zhengyi sect."
"The eldest sister is not that kind of person. We should tell her that she can't judge others based on her own suspicion." Monk Shi said.
"I know, I'm just saying. You can send a letter to her using your flying sword." Jin Xuan was sitting next to them. He picked up a stone and threw it at the stone wall. The stone shattered immediately when it hit the wall.
Monk Shi knew that Zhou Ling and Jin Xuan had become somewhat distant in the past two years, which made Jin Xuan feel uncomfortable. In the past, Zhou Ling would always chase after him and urge him to practice, but now she suddenly ignored him, making him feel abandoned. In Jin Xuan's heart, Zhou Ling was like her own sister.
Monk Shi sent out a flying sword, and then the two of them sat together. Monk Shi chanted, Jin Xuan threw stones, and the charm demon sat beside the stone statue of the Drunken Taoist and looked at him in a daze.
After only an incense stick of time, a beam of white light fell, and Zhou Ling saw that the drunk Taoist had turned into a stone statue. He did not show any surprise, but instead looked at Jin Xuan and Shi Heshang and frowned, "What are you two doing here? Why don't you go back?"
When the charm demon saw Zhou Ling, she felt the amazing fluctuations of true energy in her body, which frightened her. In the past, she would never dare to approach such a person.
"Are you still the eldest sister of the Zhengyi sect? Master Zui is already like this, and you want us to go back? Are you going to watch him die without helping? Or are you afraid of the Hades and dare not intervene?"
Jin Xuan was shocked and angry. He felt that the world before him was no longer the senior sister he knew before. He felt like he was betrayed.
"Don't get involved in this matter. I will handle it." Zhou Ling said with a frown.
"This matter? We haven't even said anything about it, how do you know about it? You knew it a long time ago? Then why did you watch your uncle get cheated by the people of the Underworld?" Jin Xuan became even more angry and clenched his fists tightly.
