An Kong hasn't come back yet.
This is something that everyone knows. Since the last time he went to Tongyoujian, An Kong has never come back. Now Chen Luo is mainly responsible for the affairs of Xifeng Cliff. Now seeing the big shot of Tongyoujian coming over, everyone's attention is focused on Chen Luo.
"If we delay any longer, there will be no hope."
Chen Luo's voice came from inside the house, and there was no intention of coming out to greet him.
The faces of the people who heard the voice changed. One of them subconsciously wanted to open his mouth to scold, but heard a weak voice coming from the white sedan.
"Stand back."
Upon hearing this, the guards surrounding the sedan chair all retreated.
The bells trembled slightly, and the sedan chair flew down from the sky and landed in the courtyard at the highest point of Xifeng Cliff. The people watching around finally breathed a sigh of relief. They couldn't help but feel a little curious about Chen Luo, the temporary manager.
"As expected of a powerful person who has reincarnated nine times, he actually knows a big shot in Tongyoujian."
Jin Yun was also excited. He had already joined Chen Luo, the temporary manager. The stronger Chen Luo performed, the brighter his future would be.
The sedan chair was suspended three feet above the ground.
The copper bells around them rang pleasantly, and the curtains around them were opened, and a woman in white walked down from the sedan chair. The woman was wearing a plain white long skirt with a golden pattern embroidered on the cuffs, which had a mark unique to the Tongyou Room.
“Ahem.”
The woman frowned slightly, covered her mouth with her hands, and coughed lightly twice.
"My Lord!"
A sedan bearer stepped forward and tried to hold the woman, but she waved him off. After about ten breaths, the woman finally adjusted her breathing and walked into the main hall.
Inside is an elegantly decorated reception room.
When the woman and the sedan bearers came in, Chen Luo was sitting on the main seat drinking tea, and a cup of brewed tea was placed on the guest seat next to him.
The woman looked him up and down and found that Chen Luo was not from the ghost house.
'How did someone who wasn't born in the Ghost House gain Ankong's trust?'
Xifeng Cliff is An Kong's dojo, and all the cultivators in the Ghost Palace know it. Without An Kong's permission, Chen Luo would not be able to sit here and drink tea openly. Recalling the rumors she heard before coming here, the woman's eyes fluctuated slightly.
"Where's Ankong?"
"Your soul is cursed. You have three days at most to live."
Chen Luo did not answer the woman's question, but directly told her about her troubles. The soul curse that An Kong specialized in was no secret in the ghost house. This woman came all the way here, obviously wanting An Kong to help her solve the curse. Unfortunately, the curse on her was extremely difficult to deal with. According to Chen Luo's judgment, even if An Kong came back, he might not be able to solve it. The curse on this woman was obviously from a stronger person, whose realm was far beyond An Kong.
"Can you tell?"
The woman had already given up hope, but she didn't expect Chen Luo to point out her problems right away.
"I just happen to know some soul spells."
Chen Luo said something mysterious.
He was still thinking about how to earn more life beads, but in the blink of an eye, business came to him. Judging from the posture of this woman, she must be no ordinary person. If she operates well, the money for buying "fertilizer" later will be settled.
"Can it be solved?"
"The curse has merged with your soul. If you want to remove the curse without damaging your soul, you will need to use soul spells, and the resources consumed will far exceed your expectations."
Chen Luo picked up the teacup and took a sip, and then finished half of the conversation.
He believed that the woman would understand the rest.
"How much?"
"Three Hundred Life Pearls"
The woman in white fell silent, tapping her fingers on the table. Chen Luo did not urge her. In order to ensure that the prey would not escape, Chen Luo deliberately added some "spices" to the tea on the table. This way, even if An Kong came back later, he would not be able to snatch the business away from him.
"I am on an important mission and cannot take any risks."
The woman in white chose to refuse.
Although Chen Luo said it well, and the place where she appeared was also in the control area of the ghost house, a stranger is a stranger, and no one is willing to entrust their life to a stranger. Not to mention that she came out this time and accepted an important mission.
If it fails to be completed, it is very likely to affect her lineage.
"Excuse me."
The woman stood up, and the slight movement caused her to cough twice more, which she managed to suppress with great difficulty.
"My Lord."
"Let's go."
The woman waved her hand, and without any movement, she returned to the sedan chair as if she had teleported. The white curtain fell, and the copper bells around it rang softly. The eight sedan bearers immediately returned to their positions, carrying the sedan chair and leaving the courtyard without looking back.
The whole process came quickly and went quickly.
Chen Luo sat in his original position, picked up the brewed tea beside him, and took a sip.
"The duck in hand can still fly away"
He extended his index finger and dipped it in the tea next to him. Drops of water slid down his fingertips and fell onto the table, splashing a circle of translucent water. The invisible soul spell seeped into the table along with the water splashes. In the distance, the woman in white on the sedan chair groaned and her face became even paler.
"It happened again!"
There was a hint of cruelty in the eyes of the woman in white.
She was unaware of Chen Luo's actions and only thought that it was the soul curse on her that was taking effect. This sudden change made her even more anxious.
"How far is it to He Weng's dojo?"
"Three hours."
"Faster."
"yes!"
The eight sedan bearers quickly took out a blood-red pill from their arms, and then turned into a stream of light and fled into the distance. In the eyes of the woman in white, He Weng was another strong man who practiced the soul art in the outer layer of the ghost house besides An Kong. Compared with a stranger like Chen Luo who didn't know her background, the woman in white was more willing to find those famous old predecessors.
Two days later.
Chen Luo was basking in the sun in the yard. The three spiritual plants had all entered the maturity stage. All that was left was to wait for the spiritual materials to bear fruit, and then refine the fruit into pills. As for the pill formula, Chen Luo had already assigned the task. With Jin Yun's connections in the Sky Realm, it shouldn't be a problem to get a pill formula.
The Void Realm is where the dead stay. The priceless recipes in the outside world are worthless here. As long as the remaining soul of the alchemist can be found, the rest of the problems will be solved.
It's nothing more than a matter of life and money.
Whoosh!!
The white sedan chair appeared on the West Wind Cliff again.
Of the eight bearers who had been so aggressive before, only six remained. The remaining six were all wounded and looked miserable. The sedan in the middle was also severely damaged, and the white curtain on the left was broken in the middle, as if it had been cut by some sharp blade.
"Senior, please save my master."
As soon as the sedan chair landed, the bearer in front knelt down, his attitude was completely different from two days ago.
"Have you fought with someone?"
Chen Luo stood up and walked over to see the woman in white who had fainted in the sedan. Compared to two days ago, the woman in white looked very bad, with a deep wound on her chest that could see the bone. If it weren't for the aura on the sedan, this woman would probably be dead.
"There were some mistakes in the mission." The few people did not elaborate. The mission was assigned by the Ghost Mansion and was a secret that could not be mentioned to outsiders. But when they mentioned He Weng, they all showed angry expressions on their faces.
"These are three hundred life beads. Please, senior, save my master."
The few of them were desperate. The woman in white was getting weaker and weaker. If she continued to weaken at this rate, she would die soon. At that time, all of them, the slaves, would be buried with her.
"Three hundred was the price the day before yesterday. Now that the curse is spreading, three hundred is far from enough."
Chen Luo retracted his right hand and did not take the life bead handed over by the other party. The curse he had planted in the white-clothed woman's body before merged with the initial life soul curse. In addition to these two auras, there was a third life soul curse, which should have been left by He Weng.
"At least six hundred."
It is inevitable to raise the price.
If it weren't for the treasures of the people, Chen Luo wanted to directly order a thousand. He had to make up for the two days he had wasted. There were so many spiritual plants waiting for him to plant in the underground secret room. If he didn't take the opportunity to earn more, what would he use to plant spiritual plants?
"I still have two hundred of them! They are all we have."
"The remaining one hundred can be deducted with life money."
The leading sedan bearer took out all the life beads on his body, and several sedan bearers next to him also took out the life money on their bodies and gave them to Chen Luo together.
“Just enough.”
After weighing the life bead in his hand, Chen Luo stretched out his hand and began to help the woman in white lift the curse.
Triple Soul Curse.
The easiest to solve is the curse he planted himself, followed by the curse of He Weng. The most troublesome is the curse at the beginning. After so many days of rooting and sprouting, it has been completely intertwined with the soul of the woman in white. Forcibly removing it will only make the woman in white become a fool.
Fortunately, he has a black snake demon saint who is proficient in this art.
He placed his right hand on the other person's brow, raised his index finger, and the black thread was pulled out instantly.
The complexion of the woman in white had visibly recovered a little, and her breathing was no longer as rapid as before. This scene made the sedan bearers very excited.
After dealing with a curse, Chen Luo placed his hand on the white-clothed woman's forehead again. This time he called on the external brain.
The aura of the Black Snake Demon Saint emerged from his body.
The second and third curses were gradually removed under the aura of the Black Snake Demon Saint. The originally rosy complexion of the woman in white turned pale as paper after the curse was removed. Her soul and body were severely damaged and became somewhat unreal.
“Ahem!!”
Without the influence of the soul curse, the woman in white woke up from her coma. She coughed violently at first, then opened her eyes and looked around blankly.
Only after seeing Chen Luo's face clearly did I feel relieved.
"Thank you, fellow Taoist." (End of this chapter)
