A life of clearness

Chapter 217 Good News

The flower owner was speechless for a moment.

Suddenly, a look of joy flashed across Princess Ji's eyes.

"There's news from the underworld." She smiled, "It's good news for you."

The flower owner's eyes lit up.

"You mean-"

"That's right." Concubine Ji nodded with a smile, "There just happened to be a vacancy."

She took out a wooden box, which was exquisitely carved but had no restrictions on it. Princess Ji opened it and revealed a mask inside.

A pure white mask. Just from the appearance, you can tell it is not an ordinary thing.

"After refining this mask, you will join the Hades lineage, and your name will be on the Hades wheel from now on. I have already told you about the various benefits. However, after joining, you can only start as a ninth-rank Hades official. After all, there are many high-level cultivators in the Hades, and the transformation of the spirit is nothing."

"I don't need to." Huazhu could hardly suppress his excitement. His fingers gently stroked the surface of the mask, and he felt the warmth. He could even feel the blood flowing in the mask and the heart beating.

It looks like a mask, but feels like a living face.

And don't be fooled by its exquisiteness and smallness, it is actually very heavy, no less than a stone lion. However, the Flower Lord is a spirit-transforming power, so this weight is nothing to her.

She exerted a little force with her fingers, took the mask out of the wooden box, and examined it carefully in her hands.

This is her ticket to a higher realm! If it weren't for Concubine Ji pointing out the way, she would never have imagined that there would be such a mysterious thing in the world that could bypass the many barriers of the realm and directly pull her mind and consciousness into the Xuanfeng Realm.

It is said that some cultivators with extraordinary backgrounds, even those in the Qi Refining Stage, can use this item to reach the Xuanfeng Realm.

It's not that Hua Zhu didn't think there was something fishy going on. But the thought was fleeting, and she subconsciously didn't believe it. Why would such a powerful force with such a deep foundation go to so much trouble to plot against a mere incarnation of a god?

Of course, the more important thing is that she can't wait any longer.

"The method of refining is what I told you before, integrating the mask into your soul."

"Understood." The flower owner nodded and was about to put the mask on his face...

"Tweet-"

Before the owner of the flower could move, a small bird with green feathers landed on the window frame, and its tender yellow beak made a pleasant chirping sound.

"Is it a talisman?" Her masked hand paused, and she waved towards the talisman bird while releasing the restriction.

The bird gently flapped its wings and landed on the flower owner's white fingertips. As the flower owner's consciousness probed into it, it quickly became invisible.

There was not much information in the talisman, and Huazhu finished reading it almost immediately.

She raised her eyes. "It was sent by the inspector. He asked me to go to the reception room. Sword Master Chongyu, Sword Master Chongji, and Yu Rong are all there."

"It seems that the Sword Masters have agreed to the Inspector's proposal and want you to be the next Inspector." Princess Ji looked at the Flower Master, "So do you agree or not?"

Huazhu's eyes flickered as she looked at the pure white mask in her hand. Time was running out and she needed to make a decision quickly.

"I've thought it through," she took a deep breath, "I'll pretend to agree first, and when my physical body is able to go to the Xuanfeng Realm, I'll pass the position of Inspector to someone else."

Anyway, she couldn't leave for Xuanfeng Realm right after joining the Hades lineage. She had to deal with the Sword Sect first. The Flower Lord didn't have such a high sense of responsibility for Cangliuzhou. At this time, she was thinking more about her future development, and subconsciously ignored how Cangliuzhou would bear the wrath of the Sword Sect.

"That's a good idea." Concubine Ji nodded. "It will take some time to refine the mask. Why don't you go to the reception room first? Otherwise, it would be embarrassing to keep the Sword Master waiting for no reason."

"That's exactly what I mean." Hua Zhu breathed a sigh of relief.

"Since the spot is confirmed to be yours, it won't be a problem to refine it later." Princess Ji understood the Flower Lord's concerns. Wasn't he afraid that if he didn't refine it immediately, someone else would take the spot?

Seeing the flower master leaving in a hurry, Concubine Ji's face turned cold.

"If I let you refine the mask now, I'm afraid you'll be exposed in front of the Sword Master. So, if I let you refine it after the Sword Master and the others leave, the possibility of being discovered will be much smaller."

"The inspector is of average strength. I have nothing to fear."

"Only the Sword Master is at the Divine Transformation level on the surface, but their true strength is hard for me to fathom..."

She had been secretly observing the Sword Sect for so long and found that the Sword Master's actions were really strange. They lived in seclusion, but their strength increased very quickly. This was simply against the common sense of the cultivation world.

No matter how talented a monk is, doesn't he need to go through training? Without acquired training, the human body is squeezed to the limit, and even the best talent will be wasted.

But the existence of the Sword Master seemed to be to defy common sense. It was as if they suddenly appeared and suddenly became so strong.

"So I have to worry and be cautious. If the Sword Master finds out, it will be bad." Princess Ji frowned slightly, "If I can reach the second level of Zhixu, why would I have to work so hard."

"He hid and hid, not daring to show his face." She hated it secretly, "But to reach the level of a judge, the merits required are enormous!"

The merits accumulated by Concubine Ji over the years are not even a fraction of what they were. Under the suppression of the Sword Sect, Concubine Ji's current situation has almost become a vicious circle. The more she dares not to stand out, the slower her merits accumulate, and the slower her merits accumulate, the less likely she is to stand out.

"If I want to change the situation, I have to plan slowly." Princess Ji thought, "At least this time, I have to thank the inspector. If he wasn't in a hurry to leave, how could the flower lady be anxious? Her anxiety has become my opportunity."

She had never dared to think of having a Divine Transformation cultivator as a slave before.

There are too few incarnation monks in the mother world, and each of them has a demonic mind. In the spirit world, it is too difficult to deceive incarnation monks. After all, the bad reputation of the Hades lineage is well known to everyone.

……

The words are divided into two parts.

In the reception room, Rong Qing smelled a scent of flowers and knew that the owner of the flowers had arrived.

"Hello, Master Hua." Rong Qing just nodded. Because her strength has surpassed Master Hua, but considering her cultivation level, she still needs to take the initiative to greet him. But, that's all.

The Flower Lord smiled gently and greeted the Sword Lord one by one. She came here with all her heart and did not want the Sword Lord and the other inspectors to notice anything unusual.

"Sword Master, what do you think?" the inspector asked again with a smile.

It seemed that the indifferent look in the eyes of Sword Master Chongyu was not a vivid and beautiful woman, but a dead object worth exploring.

Huazhu suddenly felt a fear of being seen through.

"No, this should be an involuntary thought on my part because I have something to hide in my heart. It's not that he saw anything." Hua Zhu thought to himself, with a wider smile on his face.

She didn't think that the Sword Master was so powerful that he could know who she had just met in the cave.
