Chapter 309
As for that ghost master... well, although his marriage to the Ou family was not his...
After understanding these situations, both of them were completely relieved.
As for that ghost lord... well, although the marriage between him and the Ou family was not initiated by him, he also had his own way to die.
To sum up, it's worth killing him.
Recently, the affairs of the Ou family have been spread like wildfire in Beizhou City. The third young lady has cursed her sister in public many times, and there is basically no possibility that she is hiding the truth.
After they had dinner, they came to the Ou family.
At this time, the Ou family was deserted. The bustling scene of people coming and going had long disappeared. The news that the Ghost Lord forced Ou Lingruo to marry him had already spread. No one knew whether the Ou family would offend the Ghost Lord for the sake of the future head of the family, and what the consequences of offending him would be.
For safety reasons, many people did not dare to visit the Ou family until their affairs were completely settled.
In everyone's opinion, this marriage has a high probability of being successful. After all, Ou Lingruo is just the future head of the family. If they can train one, they can train a second one. On the other hand, the Ghost Lord is a real Nascent Soul cultivator. If they offend the Ghost Lord, it is hard to say whether the entire Ou family will have a future.
There were two guards standing at the door, looking a little listless.
When they saw someone coming to the door, they went forward politely to ask, and when they learned that it was the eldest lady's guest, they immediately showed a strange expression.
Their eyes lingered on Lin Qingyang, and one of them even showed an expression of sudden enlightenment.
Cheng Hui: ...I don’t know what these two people were thinking.
One of them went to report the news, and soon, Ou Lingruo, who had received the news, came out to greet them.
In order to avoid the news from being exposed, Lin Qingyang and Ou Lingruo made an appointment in advance. His excuse for coming this time was that he had been saved by Ou Lingruo before, and this time he happened to pass by Beizhou City, so he came to visit.
Ou Lingruo brought the two of them to the courtyard where he lived and asked the maid to serve them tea.
She sat in the main seat and let out a long sigh, with an expression that showed some fatigue that could not be concealed.
"What's wrong? What's going on at home?" Lin Qingyang asked casually while drinking tea.
Ou Lingruo smiled bitterly. The fact that she had the Xuanyin body was not made public. Apart from her parents, only a few elders of the older generation knew about it.
At the beginning, the current head of the family was able to go against the majority's objections and train her as the future head of the family. It took a lot of effort, and she also made great efforts to obtain her current status.
Now, look what happened. His father's outrageous move not only wiped out all her past efforts, but even shook several elders in the group.
A married daughter could not become the head of the family, and unfortunately, they lacked the ability to deal with Nascent Soul cultivators at this time.
Most family members were pessimistic about whether she would marry the ghost lord, and some of the more ambitious ones even wanted her to give up her power.
In the past, Ou Lingruo was almost the final word in the family, but at least the older generation would consider her opinions when making decisions.
But now, in this matter, someone actually went against her words. Before Cheng Hui and others came, she had just dealt with a servant in her own yard.
Ou Lingruo was very angry. She hadn't even gotten married yet, but the servants in her own yard actually started to take the initiative to look for Xia Jia.
Cheng Hui looked at Ou Lingruo with great sympathy. It was really terrible to encounter such a thing.
The worst thing is that the person who did this was Ou Lingruo's father. In this world that respects filial piety, Ou Lingruo can't find anyone to take revenge on.
Ou Lingruo took a deep breath and said seriously, "Two seniors, although I really want to get rid of that ghost master, I must remind you that the ghost master is very powerful. If you are not completely sure, it is not recommended to take action."
These words were said by Ou Lingruo after he came back, after careful consideration.
She had fallen into despair before, and the appearance of Lin Qingyang was her life-saving straw, so she was willing to risk everything for help.
But when she came back and calmed down, she couldn't help but think more.
If it succeeds, everyone will be happy.
But what if I lose?
If these two elders were not strong enough and died at the hands of the Ghost Lord, the consequences of angering the Ghost Lord would obviously be something the Ou family could not afford.
Therefore, she had to ask clearly how confident these two were.
Cheng Hui thought about it and felt that with his and Lin Qingyang's means, it would not be a problem to kill a Nascent Soul cultivator without any intention.
However, knowing both yourself and your enemy will ensure victory in every battle, and it is never a bad thing to know more about the Ghost Lord's methods.
So he asked in detail about the ghost lord.
If we were to say who among them wanted the Ghost Lord to die the most, it would definitely be Ou Lingruo.
Ou Lingruo did collect a lot of information about the Ghost Lord. It was difficult to tell what was true and what was false, but there were only two battles involving the Ghost Lord that were clearly recorded.
One of them was a massacre. There was nothing much to say. A certain unlucky small family offended the Ghost Lord and was retaliated against. The entire family died overnight. There were no wounds on their bodies. Everyone's expression was terrified, as if they had seen something extremely terrifying.
Another time, a Jindan cultivator tried to assassinate the Ghost Lord. Although the Jindan cultivator had the upper hand, the difference in strength between the two sides was too great. In the end, the Jindan cultivator died tragically on the spot, and even his soul was taken away by the Ghost Lord. It is said that he imprisoned the soul and refined a magic weapon, burning the soul day and night, with the purpose of intimidating all sides.
Facts have proved that his method is very successful. In the eyes of others, the worst outcome of assassination is death on the spot. But when they know that there will be no peace even after death, and even the soul will be tortured for a long time without relief, fewer people dare to attack the Ghost Lord.
"That is to say... you are not very clear about the methods of this ghost lord?" Lin Qingyang pointed out the problem directly.
Ou Lingruo was very embarrassed because Lin Qingyang was right, they knew very little about the Ghost Lord.
Speaking of which, it was only when she was collecting information that she realized that they didn't know the Ghost Lord at all. Apart from knowing that he would marry wives frequently, they didn't even know his special skills or what he was good at.
"Hmm...it's a little troublesome." Cheng Hui thought for a while and felt that it was not a big problem.
This time they planned to use the formation as the main attack, while he himself would remain hidden. Even if he was accidentally exposed, he had other backup plans.
Not to mention anything else, his red lotus karma fire is the nemesis of most cultivators, and he himself is a zombie, not afraid of the invasion of yin energy, and has strong restraint on various ghosts.
To put it simply, the ghost methods of the Ghost Lord are very threatening to ordinary cultivators, but they are not a threat to Cheng Hui.
There is no time to lose. Fortunately, although Ou Lingruo's efficiency in gathering information was not satisfactory, he at least found out the range and trajectory of the Ghost Lord's movements. Generally speaking, the Ghost Lord spends most of his time in seclusion practicing. Only recently, in order to marry Ou Lingruo, or perhaps to show his importance, did he appear in Beizhou City for several consecutive days.
Of course, it is also possible that he came to visit in person in order to monitor Ou Lingruo and prevent him from escaping.
"He has been coming to see me every afternoon lately, under the pretext of cultivating feelings before marriage." Ou Lingruo sneered.
Cultivate feelings? Cultivate bullshit!
Once I become his cauldron, I can’t say whether I can survive the wedding night. There is no such thing as love.
His cultivation of affection was just like the relationship between a breeder and his poultry: what good is it if you can cultivate flowers? In the end, it's all just a matter of a knife.
At most, when eating meat, you will sigh that it tastes really good?
"Then we..."
"Miss, Miss! The ghost lord is here again!" A maid ran over in panic and shouted at the door.
Ou Lingruo's expression changed slightly, and then he became furious.
Good, some people are really impatient. How long have his two guests been here? Someone actually sent a letter to the Ghost Lord!
As for the marriage, Ou Lingruo herself was very unhappy, but some people were short-sighted and thought marrying the Ghost Lord was a good thing...
That’s right, she was talking about her third sister Ou Lingyun.
"Idiot!" Ou Lingruo cursed through gritted teeth.
She could guess what Ou Lingyun was thinking with her toes. She simply knew that she was entertaining two young and handsome men, so she went to the Ghost Lord to report the news, hoping that the Ghost Lord would think that she was unfaithful and change the marriage partner.
This idiot has no idea why the Ghost Lord insisted on forcing a marriage with her, and she even thinks that she is stealing her girl. How ridiculous!
Only Ou Lingyun would think that trash like the Ghost Lord is good!
"I'm sorry, both of you. I was not thoughtful enough. We may be in trouble next." Ou Lingruo apologized quickly.
She hadn't expected that her control over the Ou family had declined to such an extent that she couldn't even prevent the news of a friend's visit from spreading.
"It doesn't matter. Do you need us to step aside?" Lin Qingyang asked politely.
Ou Lingruo took a deep breath and said, "Yes, I'm sorry to bother you two. We still need to think about our plan in the long run."
Cheng Hui and Lin Qingyang stood up. Ou Lingruo planned to send them out. It was not appropriate to confront the Ghost Lord directly now.
But they didn't expect that as soon as they stepped out of the gate of the courtyard, they saw a group of people walking towards them from afar.
A tall, pale-faced male cultivator was surrounded by the crowd. When he saw Ou Lingruo from afar, he smiled.
"Lingruo, where are we going? Who are these two?"
Although the male cultivator had a pale face, he was not ugly in appearance, and his movements were even very elegant.
Cheng Hui suddenly understood why Ou Lingruo's third sister was so obsessed.
Why else? I’m a beauty lover!
Ou Lingruo's face didn't look very good, but he could only say calmly: "I'll send my two friends away first, Ghost Lord, please do as you please." After that, he was about to leave.
"Hey, sister, why are you in such a hurry? How come I didn't know you had such a good-looking... friend?" A young woman with a pretty face walked over with a smile, and when her eyes swept across Lin Qingyang's face, there was a hint of obvious surprise.
"What? Do I have to report to you what kind of friends I make and when I make friends?" Ou Lingruo said coldly.
Ou Lingyun pouted in dissatisfaction, hugged the Ghost Lord's arm and said coquettishly: "Brother-in-law, look at my sister. I am clearly concerned about her, but she is so excessive. If you don't know, you would think I revealed some secret of hers."
She had a sweet and innocent smile and looked like an ignorant little girl, but everyone could hear the other meaning in her words.
Of course, the effect would have been better if she hadn't secretly glanced at Lin Qingyang when she said this.
