Chapter 192 It's fate
Inside the wooden house, Qin Ziling opened his eyes first, with a hint of surprise in his eyes.
Just now, his soul entered the Niwan Palace of Jian Bailou to kill the death force bred by the demon species. When the mission was accomplished, his soul actually became stronger.
"It seems that fighting between souls can strengthen the souls. But why after I killed the ghost, my soul became stronger as if it had taken a nourishing elixir?"
The surprise in Qin Ziling's eyes quickly turned into thought.
When Qin Ziling lowered his head in thought, Jian Bailou also opened his eyes. Seeing that he was lowering his head in thought, he quietly got up and left the wooden house.
"Master, did you succeed?" Outside the house, Feng Ziluo saw Jian Bailou coming out with the black aura on his face gone, and hurriedly stepped forward to ask.
"Yes, it succeeded!" Jian Bailou nodded, feeling deeply moved.
After getting a positive answer, Feng Ziluo was completely relieved. He pointed at the wooden house and asked in a low voice: "Junior Brother Qin?"
"It's okay. I've exerted too much energy and need to rest." Jian Bailou replied. All that came to his mind was the scene where Qin Ziling's soul stepped into his Niwan Palace.
It is as vast and majestic as the vast galaxy and the universe. Even now, when Jian Bailou thinks of it, he still feels shocked.
"That's good. This time it's all thanks to Junior Brother Qin, otherwise the consequences would be disastrous!" Feng Ziluo said.
"Not only this time, but also whether our Golden Sword Sect can rise in the future depends on Qin Feng. If he prospers, the Golden Sword Sect will prosper! So starting from today, our Golden Sword Sect should do its best to support Qin Feng.
On the surface, although Qin Feng is your junior brother, from today on, you should respect him as your master, and obey his orders as your master's orders. "Jian Bailou said seriously.
"Disciple understands!" Feng Ziluo bowed and responded, showing no surprise or reluctance.
While Jian Bailou's master and disciple were talking in low voices outside the house, inside the house, Qin Ziling's eyes revealed a hint of enlightenment.
"This netherworld death force is the result of the demon seed constantly devouring the soul in the Master's Niwan Palace, transforming life into death and growing continuously. My soul killed it and refined it, which is equivalent to the devoured part of the Master's soul going through the cycle of life and death and returning to the purest soul power, which has become a tonic for my soul.
Killing and dying, dying and being born again, the cycle of life and death, the true meaning of life and death is too profound. I can only roughly guess now, and I can't see through the essence at all. It's useless to think more!"
Qin Ziling quickly put away his thoughts, got up and left the cabin.
Seeing Qin Ziling coming out, Feng Ziluo bowed deeply to him without saying anything.
Qin Ziling calmly accepted Feng Ziluo's gift, then looked at Jian Bailou and said solemnly: "Teacher, we killed three Hades this time. I'm afraid the Netherworld Cult will not let it go. Should we make plans early?"
Jian Bailou smiled and waved his hand when he heard this, saying, "You worry too much! The Netherworld Cult has established branches in all states of the Great Qi Kingdom. These branches are independent and secretly develop their power in the local area. As far as I know, the Netherworld Cult Xiyunzhou Branch has one master, the old demon Hentian, who is a master-level figure, and six Netherworld Envoys, all of whom are great martial artists in the late stage of bone refining or great Qi refining masters in the late stage of true essence.
You killed three Hades Envoys of the Xiyunzhou Branch Hall tonight, and the Xiyunzhou Branch Hall was seriously injured. And you helped me remove the Mother-Child Demon Seal. Even if their Hall Master came in person, he might not be able to get away with it. In this situation, how dare they act rashly? I'm afraid they have to recuperate and lie dormant for a while in the short term."
"Oh!" Qin Ziling's expression relaxed immediately after hearing this, and he said, "I see. I was worried that we killed three Hades Envoys at once this time, and the Netherworld Cult would retaliate after knowing it!"
"To the leader of the Netherworld Cult, the masters of the various state branches are nothing more than chess pieces of some weight. Chess pieces are used to charge into battle, and gains and losses, life and death are normal. How could he start a war just for the gains and losses, life and death of one or two chess pieces? If that were the case, the Netherworld Cult would have been destroyed long ago!
What he needs to do is to make overall plans and calculations. In fact, the hall masters of various states of the Netherworld Cult are fighting with others in various states to develop their power. This is also a way for the Netherworld Cult to train its disciples and eliminate and select those who are truly worthy of cultivation!
In fact, the development models of various forces and sects, big and small, are similar. The top figures generally do not take action easily, and let the people below fight. They will only take action when it is related to their own personal interests or major matters that are related to the life and death of the sect.
Otherwise, if the top figures are sent out at any time, it will become a fight between the top figures. What is the use of the disciples trained below? How to train the disciples? Moreover, the fights between the top figures are too risky. Once the top figure is killed, the entire sect will be overthrown.
The people below were fighting and killing each other, just for the gains and losses of a place or a city. Even if they lost, it would not shake the foundation of the sect. Just like the Xiyunzhou branch of the Netherworld Sect was wiped out, it could not shake the foundation of the Netherworld Sect at all. It was nothing more than the loss of some troops and territory, and they would send people to develop it again.
Therefore, you don't have to worry about what happened tonight. On the contrary, the one you should really worry about is the master of the Xiyunzhou branch. He lost three underworld envoys at once, which can be said to be a serious blow to his vitality. Not only did his voice in the Netherworld Cult decrease, but he also had to shrink his forces to prevent the Sitianjian from bringing people to kill them . "Jian Bailou said.
"I understand!" Qin Ziling nodded and thought to himself, although he seemed to have the strength, he was still a small figure in his previous life and could not compare with the big figures' vision and lofty vision.
"Speaking of the Sitianjian, the Guan Gou Mansion in Fangqiao City, Jin Yichen, is my disciple of the Jinjian Sect. If there is anything you need to run errands for in Fangqiao City in the future, you can ask him." Jian Bailou said.
"Jin Yichen is a disciple of our Golden Sword Sect?" Qin Ziling looked a little surprised when he heard this.
Jin Yichen was originally just the Guan Gou Prime Minister of the Guan Gou Mansion in Fangqiao City. Later, because Bai Xiuqi was secretly killed by Qin Ziling, he was promoted to Guan Gou.
So to be honest, Jin Yichen was able to become the manager thanks to Qin Ziling.
As a result, Qin Ziling didn't expect that Jin Yichen was actually a disciple of the Golden Sword Sect. It was really a fate.
"The people above the Si Tian Jian, such as the Supervisor, Junior Supervisor, and Judge, are all highly skilled and have mysterious origins. They are directly appointed by the Emperor and are directly responsible to him. The Si Tian Jian has set up Judge's Offices at the state level, and the head is the Judge. The Judge of Xiyun State is a Grandmaster of the Fa Yuan Realm. Below the state level, there are counties. Each county has a Guan Gou Office, and the head is the Guan Gou.
Many of the governors of various counties and the people in the governor's mansion came from various local sects and families. Jin Yichen originally served as the governor of the governor's mansion in Fangqiao County. As a result, at the beginning of last year, the original governor was killed and he took over the position of governor. Jin Yichen is the disciple of Elder Fang. According to seniority, he should call you "Master Uncle". "Feng Ziluo saw that Qin Ziling looked a little surprised, so he explained.
"So that's how it is! " Qin Ziling said with a look of relief, but he felt it was very interesting in his heart. After going through so many twists and turns, he actually became the uncle of Guan Gou of Fangluo City.
"Tomorrow I will write you a special order from the leader, asking him to obey your orders!" Feng Ziluo remembered Jian Bailou's previous instructions and added specially.
"That's the best." Qin Ziling said without hesitation.
His base is in Fangqiao City, and Guan Gou of Guan Gou Mansion is one of his own, so of course he has to be used.
“In fact, not only Jin Yichen, but all the disciples of the Jinjian Sect, including me, can be dispatched if you need them,” Jian Bailou said.
"Ah!" Qin Ziling was shocked when he heard this and waved his hands quickly, "How can this be done?"
"There's nothing we can't do! If it weren't for you tonight, the Golden Sword Sect would have been wiped out. And if the Golden Sword Sect wants to rise again, it has to rely on your help. So, listening to your orders and helping you rise is actually helping the Golden Sword Sect rise." Jian Bailou said.
Qin Ziling did not make any more pretentious excuses upon hearing this, but said straightforwardly: "Teacher, Senior Brother Feng, rest assured, I am at least half a disciple of the Golden Sword Sect, a guest elder, and I will definitely help the Golden Sword Sect regain its glory in the future!"
"Okay!" Jian Bailou and Feng Ziluo were both delighted when they heard this, and the gloom that had been shrouding their hearts was completely swept away.
Next, the three masters and apprentices talked about some other things. Qin Ziling even asked about Jiuxuan Mountain specifically, but unfortunately he had never heard of Jianbai Tower, so he had to give up.
Soon, Qin Ziling took his leave and returned to his guest elders' residence halfway up the mountain.
As soon as he returned to the Elders' Mansion, Qin Ziling gave the servants a few instructions, forbidding anyone to enter the main house. Then he closed the door and raised the Xuantian Cloud Flag, covering the entire main house, including the courtyard.
After everything was arranged properly, Qin Ziling took out half of a transformed Chi from the corpse-raising ring and placed it in the courtyard to emit a sinister aura.
His soul could only kill the Netherworld death force that invaded Jian Bailou's Niwan Palace soul. Qin Ziling's soul could not help with the injuries on Jian Bailou and Feng Ziluo, as well as the Netherworld death force that was entangled in their true essence meridians.
However, Hua Chi's flesh and blood contained the blood of Chi Long, and water nourished vitality. Eating Hua Chi's flesh and blood was of great help to them in repairing their injuries and killing the netherworld death force in their bodies. It could even slow down the accelerated loss of vitality caused by Jian Bai Lou's old age, thus extending his lifespan a little.
Hua Chi had been in the corpse-raising ring for too long, so it was inevitable that it would have some evil aura on its surface. Therefore, Qin Ziling could not just take it out and give it to Jian Bailou and Feng Ziluo. He needed to let the aura dissipate.
In the dragon vein area, Qin Ziling killed and robbed and got a total of four Huachi. Later, he got one third from Feng Ziluo and Cui Shanhe.
There are four and one-third Hua Chi in total.
Qin Ziling has consumed one and a half Hua Chi so far, leaving half for Xiao Qing. The three silver corpses have absorbed one third of a Hua Chi, and now they have taken out another half. In this way, there are only one and a half Hua Chi and one third of Hua Chi dried meat left in Qin Ziling's corpse-raising ring.
"The speed at which I consume Hua Chi meat has obviously slowed down, but my drug resistance is increasing. I must get some other nourishing things to supplement it in the future. One and a half Hua Chi should be enough for me to condense my strength and for Shao E and others to refine their bones."
Qin Ziling looked at the half-transformed Chi emitting a sinister aura in the courtyard, thought secretly about it, and then began to count the gains from killing the three underworld messengers.
