Seeing that these little devils were obedient and that he had already achieved his goal, Xie Zhou didn't make things difficult for them any further. He simply waved his hand and told all the little devils to sit down and rest.
"You've already shown your sincerity at my doorstep. If I were to stand here putting on airs and refuse you, it would be rather unreasonable. I'll let you off this time, but if there's a next time, don't blame me for being impolite!!"
When Xie Zhou said these words, he released some of his spiritual energy. This pressure was immense on the little ghosts, since they had no spiritual power now. They immediately submitted to Xie Zhou and became extremely loyal.
On the other side, Luo Fantian, seeing how clean and efficient Xie Zhou was, couldn't help but show an appreciative expression. However, although these little devils were currently under Xie Zhou's command, there was no guarantee that they wouldn't change their minds if they were bullied too much by Xie Zhou.
Luo Fantian then walked out, looking down at the listless little devils with no spiritual power, before turning to whisper to Xie Zhou.
"I advise you not to be too arrogant. You should know that each of these brats is a phoenix among men! They would all be extremely powerful ghost generals if they were outside. Right now, it's best not to bully them too much, lest they rise up in unison, and we won't be able to fight them!"
After Luo Fantian finished speaking, his eyes couldn't help but show a hint of worry. Xie Zhou naturally understood the meaning behind Luo Fantian's words, so he nodded to indicate that he understood.
"Don't worry, I'm quite confident in handling this small matter. If I can't even handle something this small, how can I call myself Xie Zhou?! Besides, your Empty Pill is just too useful! After swallowing one, I easily subdued this horde of little devils!"
After Xie Zhou finished speaking, a smug look appeared on his face. However, Luo Fantian naturally knew that although the pill had the effect of invisibility, it would not last long and would most likely disappear into the air after a while.
So now that Xie Zhou has finally established his authority and vulnerability in front of the kids, he just watched helplessly as his invisibility spell disappeared right in front of them. I bet all the kids felt like they'd been tricked.
Therefore, Luo Fantian must speed up now and take Xie Zhou away from this place, at least away from the sight of the little devils, so that Xie Zhou can fully recover his invisibility spell before coming to the little devils again.
“Your invisibility spell has a time limit. We can’t linger here any longer. We need to leave this place quickly. You know, this place is not safe to stay in for long. There’s an inexplicable Ghost General inside. Here, come with me to the center of North Lake nearby!”
Xie Zhou naturally knew that this invisibility technique had both advantages and disadvantages. If the little devils in front of him saw the disadvantage, the situation would be difficult to handle. So Xie Zhou nodded immediately, turned around, and left the spot with Luo Fantian.
As he left, Xie Zhou didn't forget to utter some harsh words.
"Now that you're my underlings, my first task for you is to stay put and wait here. I'm going to take a stroll around the neighborhood and come back. If I return and find that any of you ghosts have escaped, you'll be in big trouble. You know how powerful I am!"
After uttering these harsh words, Xie Zhou turned and left with a flourish. The little devils looked at each other, naturally not daring to disobey Xie Zhou's orders. They knew that Xie Zhou's invisibility technique was too powerful; he was invisible and intangible, which was simply defying the power of nature.
Afterwards, Xie Zhou and Luo Fantian arrived at the center of Beihu Lake nearby. There, Luo Fantian suddenly saw a road sign that read, "This place, the center of Beihu Lake, is said to have a treasure."
Xie Zhou never expected to have such an unexpected gain this time, but the location of the treasure's switch has remained a mystery for thousands of years. However, Xie Zhou is different; he possesses a system unlike that of ordinary people. If he can break through to this treasure, it will be a great treasure for both Xie Zhou and Luo Fantian.
"System, tell me quickly where the treasure is right under this pot, and how to open the door. If I find the treasure and gain benefits, I will share it with you immediately!"
The system wasn't stupid, of course. Seeing Xie Zhou's sincerity, it immediately agreed and then pointed out a yellow circle in the center of the lake, inviting Xie Zhou to go there. So Xie Zhou found a small sailboat on the side.
“Let’s head to the center of the lake first. There must be something powerful there! Besides, I have some connections, and I suspect the treasure is hidden in the center of the lake. If we go there, we’re sure to find it!”
Luo Fantian raised an eyebrow slightly, clearly not expecting Xie Zhou to have such a brilliant idea. However, since Xie Zhou was so certain, Luo Fantian had no further doubts and could only nod in agreement, following closely behind Xie Zhou as they boarded the small sailboat and headed towards the center of the lake.
After Xie Zhou went to the center of the lake, he continued to follow the method instructed by the system, slowly channeling his spiritual power into the center of the lake. Finally, during the exploration, he discovered a huge button-shaped boulder at the bottom of the lake.
By simply moving this huge rock, Xie Zhou could discover the entrance to the treasure cave. Thinking this, he felt it was an easy and effortless discovery, so he immediately told Luo Fantian, who was standing nearby, about his idea.
Luo Fantian knew that Xie Zhou had always been clever and quick-witted, so he immediately agreed without hesitation. Then, together with Xie Zhou, they dived to the bottom of the lake and used their spiritual power to move the huge rock. The moment the huge rock was moved, a magnificent impact was released from below.
Xie Zhou hadn't expected the impact from the bottom of the lake to be so strong. Even when Xie Zhou and Luo Fantian were together, they couldn't resist the force. In an instant, the two of them were blown away to a distance.
Xie Zhou's face turned pale instantly. He could see that in the far center of the fox, a violent storm and tornado were raging. In the midst of the tornado, a huge road could be vaguely seen. Xie Zhou knew that this must be the place where he found the treasure.
However, Xie Zhou thought to himself that it would be quite difficult to enter this storm's mouth nowadays. He took a deep breath and sighed. Nevertheless, Xie Zhou still had to go.
"Luo Fantian, are you willing to come with me? This journey is unfathomable, and there is a high possibility of danger!"
