In the eyes of the soldiers on guard, their commander was a bit of a fool. He'd left his tent to sleep, and gone to play the birdman in a tree. But they didn't dare to say anything about the commander's affairs. Hadn't they seen the commander's face, as black as ink?
The place where Wen Ziqing and his friends will camp tonight is in a lush forest.
Wen Ziqing did not sleep in the tent. At this moment, he was sitting on a high branch of a big tree, feeling the mountain breeze. Wen Ziqing felt that his mind would be clearer.
Wen Ziqing plans to have a good communication with Kong Ming tonight.
Wen Ziqing had no interest in a spirit treasure that was determined to oppose its master. Therefore, he planned to completely change Kong Ming's mindset tonight, forcing him to never again mention the idea of him taking over the throne of the Underworld Lord.
Kong Ming had been acting strangely lately, his temper becoming extremely arrogant. If Kong Ming hadn't been inside Wen Ziqing's sea of consciousness the entire time, Wen Ziqing would have suspected that Kong Ming had been replaced.
Wen Ziqing doesn't want to separate from Zhou Yuanyuan. If he has to choose between Zhou Yuanyuan and Kong Ming, Wen Ziqing would rather let Kong Ming go.
Wen Ziqing had just released Kong Ming from his "silence spell" when Kong Ming complained, "Master, what's wrong with being the Lord of the Underworld? Why don't you want to? And why don't you allow me to speak?"
"Then Kong Ming, what's the good of being the Lord of the Underworld?" Wen Ziqing did not answer Kong Ming's question, but asked back.
"What are the benefits of being the Lord of the Underworld? Do you need that? There are so many!" Kong Ming thought Wen Ziqing had changed his mind, so he quickly stretched out his claws and counted them one by one to Wen Ziqing.
"First of all, my master, after you become the Lord of the Underworld, the entire Underworld will be under your jurisdiction." Kong Ming stretched out his two claws and drew a semicircle around him, indicating the vastness of the Underworld, and then continued:
"Master, the underworld is so vast. A true man's dream is to sleep drunkenly on the lap of a beauty and soberly take charge of the underworld. This is the ultimate dream! Master, if you were the King of the Underworld, you wouldn't have to struggle for a living like you do now. You would only have others flattering you, and wouldn't have to bother with other people's opinions. A life like this, wow... ordinary immortals wouldn't even be able to have it!"
Kong Ming boasted a lot.
If Kong Ming didn’t have a physical body, he would have wanted to be the Lord of the Underworld, one of the three realms.
"My dream does not include power, so this reason is invalid. Next one." Wen Ziqing rejected Kong Ming's first reason expressionlessly.
Wen Ziqing had already lived a lifetime of power and influence in his previous life. Because of this, he understood that the opposite of "power" is "responsibility." The underworld is larger than the human world, and governing it is no easy task. He must do his job, and Wen Ziqing didn't believe being the Lord of the Underworld required any dedication.
"Then... Master, what is your dream?" Kong Ming was now excited. Master didn't even want to be the Lord of Hell, so perhaps he wanted to become a god?
Kong Ming's heart was burning with excitement. For their Lingbao clan, if the Lord Rao achieved great things, it would mean that they would also rise in prominence!
"My dream? My dream is to grow old with Yuanyuan." Wen Ziqing spoke so confidently about not striving for progress that Kongming was speechless for a long time. Zhou Yuanyuan was a cultivator, and the underworld was a place that Zhou Yuanyuan could not enter. What Wen Ziqing meant was that he didn't want to go to the underworld!
Kong Ming was depressed for a while, then mustered up his courage and said, "Master, then, then, I have a second reason."
"Yeah." Wen Ziqing nodded and signaled Kong Ming to hurry up.
"Master, you are a cultivator. Isn't the purpose of cultivators to become immortals? As long as you agree to take over the position of the Lord of Hell, you won't even need to practice. You will immediately become an immortal. Once you become an immortal, you will have a long life. How wonderful!"
"What's so good about having a long life? There are many cultivators who want to become immortals, but I'm not one of them."
Wen Ziqing's cold voice made Kong Ming's heart chilled.
"Master, if you don't want to become an immortal, why are you cultivating immortality? Aren't you kidding me?" Kong Ming's voice was tinged with tears. Even spiritual treasures have aspirations, right? If he found a master who didn't want to become an immortal, what future did Kong Ming have in his life?
"Kong Ming, to be honest with you, I started practicing just to be able to stay with Yuanyuan longer." Wen Ziqing's expression softened a lot when he thought of his beloved girl.
Kong Ming almost burst into tears. In his tens of millions of years of life, Kong Ming had never seen a cultivator like Wen Ziqing who didn't strive for progress.
What cultivator doesn't embark on the path to immortality to achieve it? But Wen Ziqing, so "fresh and unworldly," actually cultivates to pick up girls. What the hell! Why did Kongming lose his memory in the first place? If he had known Wen Ziqing would be like this, he would never have chosen him as his master!
Dark history, this is definitely the most desperate and funny dark history in its "spiritual life" for tens of millions of years, without a doubt.
"Then... Master, your cultivation is so low now. Aren't you embarrassed to stand next to Miss Yuanyuan? If Yan Hei is determined to snatch me away, you and Miss Yuanyuan together will not be his match! When the time comes, will you let Miss Yuanyuan die with you?" Kong Ming had no choice but to use his last killer move: sowing discord.
As Wen Ziqing's spiritual treasure, Kong Ming knew that what Wen Ziqing cared about most was his own weakness. Wen Ziqing wanted to protect Zhou Yuanyuan, but his strength was not as good as hers, so Zhou Yuanyuan had to take care of him all the time.
As expected, Wen Ziqing's face darkened the moment Kong Ming finished speaking. His girlfriend was too powerful, making him look like a gigolo. It really broke Wen Ziqing's heart.
No, we can't let Kong Ming set the pace. He may not be as good as Yuanyuan now, but that might change in the future. As long as he works hard, he will definitely grow to the point where he can protect Zhou Yuanyuan from all odds.
Seeing that Wen Ziqing remained silent for a long time, Kong Ming thought that Wen Ziqing was moved by him, so he quickly added fuel to the fire.
"Master, just because you've taken over the position of Lord of the Underworld doesn't mean you'll be saying goodbye to Miss Yuanyuan forever! When Miss Yuanyuan becomes an immortal through cultivation, you can marry her and make her the Queen of the Underworld. Then, won't you still be able to be together?"
Wen Ziqing was silent.
It has to be said that Kong Ming’s proposal really made Wen Ziqing feel a little moved.
Did he leave so that he could be with Yuanyuan for a long time?
"Master, just agree to it! As long as you say 'I am willing to take over the position of the Lord of the Underworld', Kong Ming will take you to the underworld immediately." Kong Ming continued to bewitch.
Leave immediately?
Then, what should Yuanyuan do?
No! Kong Ming was misleading him.
