Chapter 315 Ghost King Order
Zhiluo sat down on the table and shook her head:
"I didn't find that Jiang Shen, but... I did find the mother and son."
Yun Qingqing's face darkened, and she saw Zhiluo spread her hands:
"The person is fine. He was washed ashore a short distance downstream and was rescued by fishermen."
"...Oh?" Yun Qingqing was slightly stunned. She raised her hand and calculated for a moment, as if thinking, "This Jiang Shen... is quite interesting."
"What's going on? Have you figured out what this Jiang Shen is?" Zhiluo asked curiously.
"No." Yun Qingqing shook her head. "This thing can already summon wind and rain. Divining its true form is a bit costly. Now it's enough to know that it's not a troublemaker."
She had consumed a lot of energy in Pingzhou and had not recovered until now, not to mention that the empty sea of qi after the body training was still waiting to be filled. The most important thing now was to practice.
Yun Qingqing continued to check the backlog of files in Tianming Pavilion. Many of them could be solved with talismans, so she planned to deal with them first.
However, when she was suppressing the living soul in Pingzhou, the talisman paper in her space was almost used up. Now she had to draw the talismans on the spot. Zhiluo was inevitably a little worried, so she wanted to pass some spiritual energy to her.
But Yun Qingqing suddenly stopped, frowned, and her expression became a little strange.
"What's wrong?" Zhiluo asked hurriedly.
Yun Qingqing looked down at her palm and said inexplicably:
"The power of willpower...suddenly increased a lot."
"Huh? That's good news! Has another story about you spread?" Zhiluo said happily, "Then what are you waiting for? Quickly refine your willpower first. With spiritual power, you can handle these incidents more quickly."
Yun Qingqing pondered for a moment, nodded, stood up and said:
"I need some time to refine my willpower. It would be better to go back to the palace's spiritual formation. I'll leave this to you for now."
After giving the instructions, Yun Qingqing took Tongtong back to the palace.
Zhiluo didn't think anything was wrong at first, until she left for a while, then she suddenly realized it.
"Hmm? With Qingqing's current physique, refining her willpower should be very fast, but she said it still needs some time... How much willpower has she increased?"
…
Zhiluo was right. The reason why Yun Qingqing wanted to return to her own courtyard in the palace was because this wave of wish power was so powerful, a thousand times greater than the wish power that grew naturally on a normal day.
She roughly estimated that if all of this enormous wish power was refined, it would be enough to fill up the Qi Sea by 30%.
Not only that, this wish power has been growing since it came all at once. Although the speed has slowed down a lot, it is still far beyond usual.
Although it was a good thing, she was a little confused about where these wishes came from.
At present, the power of will has not yet been transformed into spiritual power, so it is not appropriate to tell fortunes. Yun Qingqing had some guesses in her mind, but she could only accept it all and do something after the power of will was refined.
Tongtong had been eating and drinking in Tianming Pavilion for the whole afternoon and had fallen asleep.
When he returned to the palace and entered the spiritual formation in his own yard, the little beast suddenly woke up, sniffed hard, and looked very comfortable.
"Xifu, it smells good here!"
Yun Qingqing smiled and rubbed her hair. Doesn’t it smell nice? The spiritual energy in this yard is much stronger than outside.
Tongtong suddenly remembered something she hadn't said and grabbed Yun Qingqing's arm:
"Xifu~, Pingzhou, the luck is weird!"
Yun Qingqing's face paused, thinking that although this little kid has become a mortal, his perception is still so sharp that he can tell that there is something wrong with the fortune of a state from such a distance.
She nodded.
"Are you trying to say that Pingzhou's luck is too low among all the states in Daliang?"
"Yeah! It's not normal!" Tongtong nodded heavily.
Yun Qingqing understood what she meant. Pingzhou was located a little south of Daliang, but still belonged to the Central Plains.
Normally, the fortunes of a country's states are often higher in the Central Plains than in the border areas. Especially when there is an invasion by foreign enemies, the fortunes will plummet if the borders are in danger.
But Yun Qingqing had long discovered that Pingzhou, located in the Central Plains, had fallen to an abnormally low fortune.
Even though she had broken the Six Paths Heavenly Demon Formation and resolved the Heavenly Disaster, Pingzhou's fortune still could not return to a reasonable value.
Yun Qingqing couldn't help but suspect that Pingzhou still had some secrets, but after the last battle she was in urgent need of recuperation, so she took a long-term view.
"Father Xi, please bring Tongtong with you next time, okay?" The little divine beast rubbed her arm.
Yun Qingqing rubbed her furry little head and thought for a moment, then nodded and said:
"It depends on the situation. If there's no danger, I'll take you there."
Putting aside other things, when it comes to finding things based on luck, no one in the world can be better than the little divine beast. You can really take her along to give it a try.
"Okay, Master is going to practice now. Do you want to go back to the room and sleep or stay with me?"
Yun Qingqing looked at Tongtong with a smile.
"Accompany Father Xi~!" The little divine beast rubbed against her palm and said crisply.
Yun Qingqing felt a little emotional. This little creature loved to be lazy in his previous life. Whenever he saw her practicing, he would slip away to an empty corner and take a nap. But perhaps because of the incident with her sacrifice, the little beast always loved to stick to her in this life.
She touched Tongtong's head lovingly, took out a soft cushion and spread it on the ground, letting Tongtong nestle in it comfortably, and then began to meditate.
It was getting dark.
The moonlight sprinkled in the courtyard like water, and the pattern of the spirit gathering array faintly emerged.
A faint halo surrounded Yun Qingqing, and a vortex could be vaguely seen in the air rushing towards her.
Tongtong squatted aside, took a deep breath of the air filled with spiritual power, and squinted her eyes comfortably.
Late at night, Yun Qingqing finally refined all the wish power that poured in. She sensed her Qi Sea and found that it was nearly half full of spiritual power, which was better than expected. She curled her lips in relief.
When I opened my eyes, Tongtong was already fast asleep on the cushion.
She quietly carried the little beast back to the room and settled it down, then quietly went out and took out a small black mirror.
He was about to write something on it with spiritual power on his fingertips when he suddenly heard an ethereal ring tone.
Yun Qingqing paused and looked towards the corner of the yard, where she saw the black and white duo walking out of the dark road.
"..." She lowered her head and glanced speechlessly at the communication instrument in her hand, then looked at the two ghost messengers, "It seems that your business in the underworld is really not busy."
Bai Wuchang's smiling expression seemed to pause for a moment, and he stepped forward and said:
"Look at what Lord Yun said. We are here on the orders of Lord Yanjun to deliver a token of trust to you."
"A token of trust?" Yun Qingqing was stunned.
Also, why is this person suddenly so polite? What does Lord Yun mean?
Hei Wuchang took out a black waist badge whose material could not be identified and handed it over with both hands.
Yun Qingqing took it and saw that one side of the waist badge was engraved with the ancient and clumsy word "Ling", and the other side was covered with dense patterns. The black badge was surrounded by wisps of ghostly aura. It was an evil object that ordinary people could not suppress at all.
"This token...?" Yun Qingqing looked at Bai Wuchang in confusion.
Bai Wuchang narrowed his eyes with a smile that never changed and said:
"Master Yun, this is the Ghost King's Order bestowed by Lord Yama."
Yun Qingqing:?
