Chapter 623 Aunt Yuan is furious
Yuan Guiwang couldn't make a decision immediately.
It is extremely difficult to let go completely, and she does not have enough courage for the time being.
But her heart knot began to loosen.
She would try to stop staring at the rotting corpse and pay more attention to the scenery outside.
Yuan Guiwang felt the warmth of the corpse. She thought that she had just planned to refine Ye Xiaoman, but Ye Xiaoman actually put aside their past grudges and expressed sympathy for her situation and concern for her new life in every word she said.
No wonder the Ghost Lord is so attached to Ye Xiaoman. Ye Xiaoman is such a good girl.
If she were a man, she would also fall in love with Ye Xiaoman.
Yuan Guiwang rarely felt guilty, but he heard Ye Xiaoman ask leisurely: "Auntie, do you think I'm repaying evil with kindness and that I'm a very good person?"
Before Yuan Guiwang could nod, Ye Xiaoman said, "Auntie, you only need to give me a small gift to repay my generosity."
Ghost King Yuan: “?”
Ye Xiaoman bent her fingers and tapped the ghost hand that was protecting them. The black surface was as hard as diamond, and fell like a tent. It remained motionless even under Zhu Chuideng's attack. It was truly a rare supreme-level magic weapon in the world.
It seems to be more effective than Jiaying's Golden Bell Cover spell.
The Ghost King has been running the business for many years, and he indeed has a few hidden treasures.
Ye Xiaoman remembered that she just lacked a top-level defensive magic weapon.
Yes, that’s right, Xiao Chujing and the others gave her a lot of things, but they were not as good as the one given by Yuan Guiwang.
Ye Xiaoman directly helped Yuan Guiwang make the decision, "Auntie, I want this ghost hand."
Yuan Ghost King: “!”
The emotion in Yuan Gui Wang's heart disappeared, and she rudely refused: "What the hell do you want?"
It turned out that Ye Xiaoman's casual chat with her was all a prelude to blackmail her for her magic weapon.
You can't just say "give me money" right away. Instead, you should start the conversation with "have you eaten?" or "business is good lately, right?"
Yuan Guiwang's heart was beating wildly, and she was almost mad to death by Ye Xiaoman's loud mouth. She scolded Ye Xiaoman in an excited tone.
"I poured all my efforts into refining this Earthly Fiend Black Jade Hand for 1,256 years and 6 days!"
"The raw material is my little finger bone! My ashes!"
"For a thousand years, I've invited countless renowned weapon refiners and talisman makers! I've provided them with food, lodging, and precious materials, and I've treated them well. All my salary as the Ghost King has gone into this!"
"How many resources have been invested! Not to mention anything else, just the black ore and golden nanmu wood that go into the smelting furnace every day, a full ten kilograms of it have to be burned every day! Go ask outside what the price of top-grade black ore is now. It's as much as gold. Even the richest members of the Ji royal family may not be able to afford it! I'm burning it!"
"You're asking for my treasure now! Don't even think about it! Even if I die and am devoured by the ghost master, you can't have my treasure!"
"Is that so?" Ye Xiaoman sighed, "Then I can only handle the matter impartially."
Ye Xiaoman looked at Ghost King Yuan with regret and spread her hands. "Actually, Uncle Deng just asked me to stay for a talk. He said that after the fight, he wanted to learn more about the grudges between me and the Ghost Kings."
"I think Auntie is pretty and I have a good impression of her. I wanted to say something nice about her in front of Uncle Deng, but I was almost refined by her just now. This matter is quite serious, so I think it's better to tell the truth..."
Yuan Guiwang's finger was so excited that it almost poked Ye Xiaoman's nose: "The kid can't be hurt at all!"
Ye Xiaoman shook her head heavily, clutching her chest. "I've suffered severe psychological trauma. Every night, I can only close my eyes and sleep with the company of the ghost hand. Even then, I'm often awakened by nightmares."
Ghost King Yuan: “…”
Ye Xiaoman said disappointedly:
"Auntie only saw me taking your magic weapon, but didn't realize my good intentions behind it. People can only learn to grow after paying a huge price. I just hope that you will learn from this lesson and stop killing innocent people."
Yuan Guiwang was confused by Ye Xiaoman's righteous words. With such a broad mind, could she really be an honest person?
Seeing that she still hadn't delivered, Ye Xiaoman whispered devilishly in her ear: "I will really complain~"
Yuan Guiwang's face was as black as ash. He gritted his teeth, terminated her contract with the magic weapon, and stuffed the half of her little finger, as crystal clear and beautiful as jade, into Ye Xiaoman's hand.
"Take it."
Then she turned away and no longer looked at Fabao, feeling so heartbroken that she couldn't breathe.
Ye Xiaoman said, "We also need 100,000 kilograms of top-grade black ore."
Yuan Guiwang turned his head angrily and looked at Ye Xiaoman.
Ye Xiaoman explained with a smile: "You and the Ghost Lord injured Senior Brother Xiao, and this is the medical expenses."
Yuan Guiwang was forced to write an IOU to Ye Xiaoman.
She was really blind. She actually thought Ye Xiaoman was an honest person.
Ghost King Yuan knew that she would have a difficult time today, and despite the heartache that almost made him want to vomit blood, he summoned the remaining half of her Nine Tribulations Coffin.
She closed the coffin, caressed the ghost talisman on it reluctantly, then hardened her heart and pushed the coffin in front of Ye Xiaoman.
"Take the withered coffin and make it whole for Xiao Chujing as my apology."
"As a deal, you must save my life in front of the Ghost Lord."
Ye Xiaoman accepted it with a smile, "Deal done."
Ghost King Yuan and her blood corpse husband stood alone on one side of the ghost hand protection circle, unwilling to look at Ye Xiaoman again.
Before today, she was a rich woman, but after today, she was heavily in debt.
The joys and sorrows of humans and ghosts are not the same. Ye Xiaoman squatted on the ground happily playing with her new magic weapon, shrinking and enlarging the ghost hand, sometimes making a scissors hand gesture and sometimes a heart shape.
Yuan Gui Wang suddenly stood up straight, "You are such a hot-tempered kid."
Xiao Chujing's resistance lasted longer than Yuan Guiwang expected.
It was his first time fighting against the Ghost Lord, but he did not seem panicked at all. His attacks and defenses were very methodical. He seemed to be very familiar with Zhu Chuideng. Needless to say, he must have received secret guidance from the old ghost.
With the Ghost Master present, the old ghost, a wisp of spirit, dared not show up, hiding in Xiao Chujing's sea of consciousness. The inner demon was frantically absorbing Xiao Chujing's negative emotions, and its strength skyrocketed.
It can be said that for Zhu Chuideng, it was a one-on-three battle.
Xiao Chujing has been completely possessed by the devil, his eyes are red, bloodthirsty and warlike, with only one thought in his mind, that is to make Zhu Chuideng pay the price.
Even if he kills one thousand enemies, he will injure eight hundred of his own men.
Using the weak against the strong, making plans, fighting again and again after repeated failures, and being tenacious and unyielding, Zhu Chuideng now has some admiration for Xiao Chujing. If Xiao Chujing had not been fighting for Ye Xiaoman, the Sea King, the scene could be said to be quite exciting.
On Xiao Chujing's handsome face, the magic patterns like ceramic cracks deepened, and his long hair flew wildly. He roared and activated the Nine Tribulations Thunder and Fire Formation he had set up.
The Nine Heavens Divine Thunder leaped out of the abyss like a group of dragons, turning the sea of red spider lilies that stood between him and Zhu Chuideng into dust.
