I'm modifying myself into the ultimate demon.

Chapter 190 Reading the Buddha's Memories, The Ghost King's Tomb!

Chen Mo carried the brocade box and walked out of the bedroom, Qin Luoxi's terrified voice still echoing behind him.

"Hey, come back here, I'll tell you. Even if you still won't let me go, I'll admit defeat."

"Hey, don't go! Come back..."

Chen Mo ignored him.

This princess hasn't suffered any harm, so why would she give up so easily?
It's nothing more than feeling scared and wanting to spend more time with oneself, hoping to get some information out of them.

Chen Mo wouldn't waste time on such trivial matters.

He walked to the main hall and saw Juan'er still fiddling with the shadow puppets. He said, "Juan'er, go and keep an eye on that woman in the side room. Although I used the power of the golden ghost to restrain her spiritual leakage, this woman is no pushover. Don't let go of her hands."

Juan'er nodded in agreement: "Don't worry, young master, Juan'er understands."

"Also, don't answer any of the questions they ask you. Otherwise, you'll fall into their trap."

Juan'er pouted confidently: "Juan'er isn't so easily fooled."

Chen Mo didn't discourage Juan'er and watched her leave.

Su Yuqing went out tonight; otherwise, it would have been much safer to have her keep an eye on Qin Luoxi. Fortunately, her spirit was bound by his own ghostly power, so nothing bad happened.

With Juan'er gone, the main hall became empty.

Chen Mo didn't close the door. He sat on the armchair, brought the oil lamp to his side, and opened the brocade box to examine the four items inside.

"This princess is truly extravagant. No wonder she is the apple of the Prince of Zhennan's eye. I've never even seen a talisman that can suppress golden life-energy zombies and vengeful ghosts. And this piece of five-colored ghost meat is of ridiculously high quality. This Celestial Pill is also quite good."

"I accepted these things because I asked you to follow me. Given the princess's wealth, losing a few things is nothing."

Chen Mo picked up the Heavenly Pill, intending to open the panel and analyze it.

Da da da.

Suddenly, hurried footsteps sounded outside the door. It was Li Huabai, dressed in a black cloak, who rushed in.

Li Huabai was a person who knew how to be polite and tactful. When she arrived at the door, she knocked on the door politely.

Chen Mo said, "Come in and talk."

"Yes."

Li Huabai then entered and sat down next to Chen Mo. "Young Master, an old monk came to our Baohua Temple late at night and is currently interrogating Yuanfang."

Chen Mo was taken aback: "Old monk? Could you describe your appearance in detail?"

Li Huabai said, "He was wearing a red robe, his face was old and full of wrinkles. He was just skin and bones. But his cultivation was astonishing. Sister Su was already watching him in secret."

Upon hearing these descriptions, Chen Mo considered a possibility: it was possible that people from Jinlong Temple had come.

"What did the old monk interrogate Yuanfang about?"

Li Huabai said, "They pressed him about where he went on the night of the full moon a while ago. He mentioned a wicked nun. The outrageous thing is, that old monk actually questioned the large statue in the Baohua Hall. Yuanfang..."

Chen Mo asked, "What happened to Yuanfang?"

Li Huabai stammered, "Yuan Fang was quite arrogant, and his answer displeased the old monk. So he was severely beaten by the old monk. The old monk even said he wanted to come here to investigate."

brush.

Chen Mo suddenly stood up.

You can talk directly to the young monk Baohua.

That's most likely someone from Kinryuji Temple.

He might be a big shot at Jinlong Temple.

I also need to check on the meditation room in the backyard...

Kinryuji is powerful; now is not the time to deal with them.

Let's leave the backyard and hide for now.

But traces of human life remain here. People can leave easily, but these traces are not easy to erase. In the end, clues will always remain.

Furthermore, it is currently unknown which person from Kinryuji Temple has come.

Rushing out to evacuate may not be the best course of action.

Just then, a cold wind rushed in from outside, and then a beautiful red figure appeared.

It was Su Yuqing.

Chen Mo immediately asked, "Xiao Yu, do you know if the people interrogating Yuan Fang outside are from Jinlong Temple?"

Su Yuqing said, "It's the Buddha from Jinlong Temple who's here. He's a golden-haired, powerful ghost with two golden incense sticks. The Buddha is violent and beat Yuan Fang severely when he saw that Yuan Fang's attitude was not good. He's carrying Yuan Fang and heading this way right now."

Buddha!

Two golden incense sticks.

In terms of skill level, it's not fatal.

But the Buddha has powerful backers. He has a Buddha Mother and a Rakshasa Mother.

As Jiang Hongyue mentioned before, it was a wisp of Rakshasa Mother's spirit that descended upon this place, causing the crimson moon to appear all night. If we were to take action... and attract that Rakshasa Mother, things might get very complicated.

Moreover, last time at the Green Wolf Gang, the ghost of that Rakshasa Mother was killed by Jiang Hongyue because she was trying to read her memories. It's unknown whether the Rakshasa Mother's true form sensed the cause of the ghost's death.

If it is sensed.

I'm afraid that Rakshasa Mother recognizes me.

If we get discovered, that would be bad.

Upon hearing the news of the Buddhist monk, Li Huabai felt even more apprehensive: "Young master, the other side is about to arrive. We need to make plans as soon as possible. I heard that the Buddhist monk and nun have been questioning people at each temple in Qianfo County recently."

Chen Mo raised his right hand, gesturing for Li Huabai to be quiet. "Let me think, let me think... If we run away, I'm afraid Yuanfang will suffer. If we don't run..."

brush.

Chen Mo's gaze suddenly fell on Qin Luoxi in the side room.

"There is..."

……

Meanwhile, Yuanfang was beaten black and blue by the Buddha.

At this moment, the Buddha was still carrying her in his hand like a chick, striding towards the backyard.

"This backyard is where a few of my friends are staying; there's nothing to see here... Ah!"

Before Yuanfang could finish speaking, he received a hard slap from the Buddha. Half of his face swelled up and burned with pain.

"Stop talking. If it weren't for the fact that you are my disciple, I would have slapped you to death long ago." The Buddha's face was full of anger, and his deep eyes seemed to be spitting fire.

As for the young monk Baohua, he was also badly beaten and followed closely behind the Buddha, not daring to utter a single word.

Da da da.

The Buddha strode towards the meditation room in the backyard.

For the past few days, the Buddha has been busy investigating the evil nun.

That evil spirit not only killed its own child, but recently it has started sneaking into various temples to steal incense pills, which is utterly despicable. The Buddha had no choice but to personally step forward and inquire from house to house.

They were hoping to find out about the evil spirit as soon as possible, so they could find the evil nun and tear her to pieces.

Although the young monk Baohua and Yuanfang's explanations were not flawed, upon hearing that several outsiders lived in the temple, the Buddha was bound to come and take a look.

They rushed all the way to the meditation room in the backyard.

The door was closed.

Bang.

Enraged, the Buddha kicked open the gate. Just as he was about to order the outsiders to come out and answer, he saw a woman in a blue silk dress standing gracefully in the center of the courtyard.

When the Buddha saw this woman, he was greatly surprised: "Princess of Nan'an?"

Princess Nan'an coldly replied, "You want to search my residence?"

The Buddha remained silent.

Yuan Fang was also quite surprised: How come there's another woman in the meditation room in the backyard? Or... Princess Nan'an? Brother, what are you doing...?

The Buddha did not reply.

Princess Nan'an coldly replied, "Fine. Then search us. Take all my men in for questioning, preferably with severe torture. After that, I will lead men to search Jinlong Temple and torture them one by one. An eye for an eye, Your Majesty... please search us."

The Buddha's pupils contracted.

He knew that the Princess of Nan'an had recently entered Qianfo County with a large entourage, ostensibly to maintain order, but she was constantly sending people there. He just hadn't expected that the Princess of Nan'an would be living in the dilapidated Baohua Temple.

Moreover, while the Princess of Nan'an may not be a big deal, her audacity in stationing herself in Qianfo County must have been permitted by the Prince of Zhennan. It wouldn't be worth clashing with the Prince of Zhennan over such a trivial matter.

Thinking of this, the Buddhist monk finally breathed a sigh of relief. "Your Highness is too kind. Since Your Highness is staying here, then... it is this old monk who has disturbed you."

Having said that, the Buddha abandoned the round object and turned to leave.

Leaving the meditation room in the backyard, they walked all the way to the entrance of Baohua Hall before stopping. The Buddha glared angrily at the young monk Baohua, "Since the princess is staying here, I will forgive you. From now on, keep a close eye on the princess's every move. If the princess makes any unusual moves, report back immediately."

Young monk Baohua: "Yes."

After saying this, the young monk Baohua returned to the Dharma image as if he had been granted a pardon.

Eh.

The Buddha rubbed his temples, then turned and left.

As he walked, the Buddha suddenly felt dizzy and lost his footing, almost falling to the ground.

"What's wrong? Could it be that you're grieving too much because of your child's passing?"

"Hey, I'm getting on in years, I should really take better care of my health from now on. Even though I've lost my child, I can't afford to have anything happen to me. Maybe you shouldn't investigate so relentlessly..."

The Buddha didn't think much of it and continued walking.

An even greater wave of fatigue and dizziness washed over him, causing the Buddha to collapse to the ground and fall into a deep sleep.

Immediately afterwards, a woman dressed in a red Xiuhe dress appeared from the darkness and placed her hand on the Buddha's forehead:
Access memories.

Meanwhile, inside the Baohua Hall, the young monk Baohua stared intently at everything happening in the courtyard, feeling utterly terrified: It was that woman surnamed Su! This woman is too terrifying, truly too terrifying... A dignified Buddha, inexplicably fallen into her trap.

……

The meditation room in the backyard.

In the side room, Qin Luoxi slowly woke up. She found Chen Mo sitting on the edge of the bed, smiling at her.

Perhaps because of her initial encounter with the hanging corpse, Qin Luoxi instinctively felt a bit scared of Chen Mo and immediately curled up at the head of the bed. "What, what are you going to do? And what did you just do to me?"

Just moments ago, Qin Luoxi was still in her room, filled with fear, when Chen Mo suddenly rushed in and patted her on the head... Then Qin Luoxi felt herself being controlled by a powerful mental force.

Qin Luoxi had no idea what happened after that.

Chen Mo said, "Hehehe... It's nothing. I just used my mind to control the princess and then looked at her body. Hmm, the princess has a very good body, and her skin is fair. She served me very well."

Without him.

Chen Mo knew this princess was a big problem; he couldn't kill her, nor could he let her go. Moreover, the princess harbored deep resentment towards him, and things couldn't continue like this indefinitely.

It's said that to smooth over a woman's resentment, you should start by working on her body.

That's why I told a lie.

Although the methods were somewhat brutal, Chen Mo would never risk his own life or the lives of those around him.

As for whether it will work or not... we'll see later.

We should give it a try.

Sure enough, Qin Luoxi was struck dumb upon hearing this. After a moment of disorientation, she realized what was happening and immediately checked her ruqun (a type of traditional Chinese dress). She found that the ruqun had been undone. There were also marks on her arms and thighs indicating that she had been pinched.

Looking up again, I saw several scratches on Chen Mo's neck, and it was bleeding.

Looking down at her fingernails, she saw that they were indeed stained with blood.

At this point, Qin Luoxi believed it to be true.

"what!!!"

Qin Luoxi let out a heart-wrenching roar.

Chen Mo touched the blood on his neck, "Just now the princess was so fierce, she looked like she wanted to eat me up, she grabbed me and started biting and scratching me. If I hadn't been healthy, I would have been in big trouble."

Woo woo woo.

Qin Luoxi roared a few times, but no one came to help. So she hugged her knees and began to sob softly.

Chen Mo got up and left, letting Juan'er come in to watch over Qin Luoxi.

After leaving the side room, Chen Mo returned to the main hall and saw Yuan Fang sitting in a chair with a bruised and swollen face. Li Huabai was wiping Yuan Fang's wounds with a handkerchief and applying medicine.

Chen Mo had intended to inquire about Yuan Fang's injuries, but seeing Yuan Fang's smiling face, enjoying Li Huabai's care, he said, "If I can receive such care from Miss Huabai when I am injured, I would rather be injured for the rest of my life."

Ok……

Chen Mo felt that he didn't need to ask any more questions.

But a surge of anger also welled up inside him.

This Buddha is going too far.

Don’t worry, it will be soon.

Chen Mo didn't disturb the two of them, returned to his bedroom, and closed the door behind him.

call!
Chen Mo lit the oil lamp and sat down cross-legged on the spot. He took out a brocade box and took out a pill from it.

[A deconstructable object detected?]

[Should we deconstruct it?]

"Deconstruction!"

hum!
A sharp pain shot through his mind, and then lines of subtitles appeared.

【Name: Heavenly Elixir】

[Category: Pills that help advance to the Celestial Realm.]

[Function: Greatly increases the probability of breaking through to the Celestial Realm.]

[Note: This was created by an alchemist at the Celestial Realm level, who blended various medicinal herbs, added the power and bloodline of a Celestial Realm expert, and refined them together.]

[Ingredients: Thousand-year-old Ganoderma lucidum, thousand-year-old ginseng, family bloodline, innate essence, profound secrets of the Celestial Realm, plus aconite...]

[Tip 1: Taking this will increase the probability of breaking through to the Celestial Realm.]

[Tip 2: Your Transcendent Realm cultivation has reached its peak; you may consume it.]

After reading the information, Chen Mo understood the situation.

There's nothing wrong with this pill; you can take it.

“I originally intended to abandon my human body. But since the princess has sent me the Celestial Elixir, I might as well give it a try.”

Thinking of this, Chen Mo picked up the pill and put it in his mouth.

As the elixir dissolved in his stomach, it immediately transformed into streams of pure, profound power, flowing into his physical body, permeating every limb and bone, and finally transforming into the power of his cultivation, urging his body to continuously improve and transform...

The entire process was extremely mysterious, but it also brought immense suffering.

Chen Mo had no choice but to unleash the full power of his body to match it...

About half an hour later...

call!
Chen Mo lay exhausted on the ground, drenched in sweat and panting heavily.

In the short time just now, Chen Mo had endured countless surges of Daoist power from the Celestial Pill, leaving his body utterly exhausted, as if every last bit of strength had been drained. He didn't even have the strength to turn over.

However, new changes have emerged.

The physical body has transformed.

The transformation of bloodline gave rise to an even more terrifying power: the power of the Celestial Realm.

The concept of "harmony between heaven and man" refers to the unity of heaven and man.

However, the unity of heaven and man in this world is different from what Chen Mo knew in his previous life.

The unity of man and nature in the previous life was when man absorbed the power of heaven and earth and made it his own. In turn, he could mobilize the power of heaven and earth.

The unity of man and nature in this world refers to a state where the power of one's bloodline resonates with the surrounding external world. It influences external things from the inside out. Its effects are very similar to those of invocation.

Inspiration is the spirit that inspires others, making them unable to refuse one's will and subject to one's control.

For example, just now Chen Mo ordered Qin Luoxi to face the Buddha... Qin Luoxi was not even aware of what was happening when she was ordered to do so.

This is the powerful appeal of the golden ghost.

The power of the Celestial Realm can also influence external objects, though not in such a direct and forceful way. For example, one can communicate with animals like ants through the power of the Celestial Realm, and influence changes in the surrounding environment, and so on.

There are similarities in the same way.

Wow.

A wisp of Celestial Realm power appeared.

Following this, more and more Celestial Realm magical power appeared, eventually circulating throughout Chen Mo's entire body, making him feel incredibly comfortable.

"So this is the Celestial Realm. Truly wondrous. The power of the Transcendent Realm is merely power, only the physical body has transcended the mundane. But the power of the Celestial Realm has evolved into... magical power."

"In this world where corpses and demons roam freely, humans have been able to establish a unified dynasty in such a harsh environment. This shows that the path of cultivation for humans also has its own methods. It should not be underestimated."

"I was able to break through so quickly thanks to the princess's gift."

Once his strength was restored, Chen Mo sat cross-legged and experienced the profound mysteries of the Celestial Realm's magical power.

He raised his hand and made a sweeping gesture towards the dining table in the distance.

The dining table was instantly brought to Chen Mo's side by the magic power.

There were a few small insects on the window, and Chen Mo was able to communicate with them using his magic.

Extremely mysterious.

A moment later, Chen Mo finished his work.

Take out the braised pork belly from the brocade box.

"This Ghost Year meat is different from the Su Yuqing meat I ate in the Mirror World. It's Ghost Year meat that can nurture the cultivation of a golden vengeful ghost. Let me break it down."

Open the panel.

[A deconstructable object detected?]

[Should we deconstruct it?]

Chen Mo had an idea.

"Deconstruction!"

……

An hour later.

Chen Mo opened his eyes again.

A sharp glint flashed in his eyes, radiating an extremely powerful spiritual force. Compared to the previous golden ghost's power, it had now increased by more than fifty percent.

The golden incense stick in his mind's eye had already risen to half its original height.

There is still half left to complete the process of burning one stick of incense.

This made Chen Mo very happy.

"Such a large piece of Ghost Year meat, the effect is truly terrifying. It's even more effective than a wisp of red moonlight."

It's not that the pork belly is more effective, but rather that there's a large quantity available.

Chen Mo just ate a full two jin of Ghost Year meat. This Ghost Year meat didn't look big, but it was very dense. If Chen Mo were given two jin of Red Moon Essence... he would practically take off.

call!
Chen Mo breathed a long sigh of relief.

"Now, both ghosts and humans have reached the golden level of life energy. Only zombies are missing. The barrier between golden and silver life energy is too great. Without the help of some rare and precious materials, it is feared that it will be difficult to break through in a lifetime."

Next, I'll need to find a zombie with golden life energy to use.

A zombie with golden life force... is even rarer than a golden vengeful ghost, and is extremely difficult to find.

"I was hiding in my room just now and looked at that Buddha statue from afar. I felt that the Buddha statue was extraordinary. I wanted to analyze it, but the Buddha statue had a red moonlight power on it, which prevented me from doing so."

"Su Yuqing said that the Buddha was a two-stick golden vengeful ghost, and a physical one at that. Logically speaking, the mental burden of a golden vengeful ghost is too great for an ordinary physical body to bear; one must reach the Celestial Realm to sustain it. Was that Buddha a Celestial Realm cultivator? Or... a zombie?"

"We'll know once Su Yuqing reads the Buddha's memories."

Chen Mo had made two preparations in response to the arrival of the Buddha.

On one hand, she manipulated Qin Luoxi to prevent the Buddha from entering. On the other hand, she had Su Yuqing lie in wait near the Baohua Hall, looking for an opportunity... to read the Buddha's memories without leaving a trace.

If successful, tonight's gains will be substantial.

You can learn about the Rakshasa Temple and the Ghost King through the Buddhist priest.

This was Chen Mo's biggest plan in Nanzhou.

Thinking of this, Chen Mo put the corpse-suppressing talisman and the ghost-suppressing talisman into the brocade box and closed it: "I received benefits from others for no reason and then imprisoned them. Although it was for my own safety, it was still a bit immoral."

"Alright, let's return these two talismans to the princess, lest she do something foolish in a moment of despair and attract the attention of the Prince of Zhennan. I'll go and appease her."

The only daughter of the Prince of Zhennan, the Buddha dared not kill her.

Chen Mo didn't dare either.

Of course, this is under normal circumstances...

Chen Mo stood up, stretched his limbs, and then pushed open the door and went out.

Seeing that Yuanfang, that sycophant, was still sitting in the chair, constantly complaining of pain, but actually enjoying Li Huabai's care, Li Huabai's face lit up with a smile.

Su Yuqing also returned and sat down to drink tea.

Upon seeing Chen Mo leave, Su Yuqing stood up and said, "Young Master."

Chen Mo gestured to Su Yuqing that there was no need for formalities, then sat down next to her. "How is it?"

Su Yuqing said, "I have already read the Buddha's memories. The Buddha was unaware of this and thought that he had fallen into a deep sleep due to exhaustion. Now he is gone."

brush!
Upon hearing this, Li Huabai and Yuan Fang also came over.

Yuan Fang, in particular, no longer looked like a wounded person at all. His eyes were wide open, staring straight at Su Yuqing, more curious than anyone else.

Li Huabai was speechless. "Didn't you say your wound still hurt?"

Yuanfang then realized what was happening and quickly made a pained expression: "Ouch... the wound still hurts a bit. But after hearing that sister-in-law read that dog Buddha's memories, it doesn't hurt anymore. That dog Buddha is really a scoundrel, hitting me without even asking what happened. He's really despicable. Sister-in-law is so clever."

Li Huabai glared at Yuan Fang: "You're so glib. This is a secret, you're an outsider, so you don't need to listen."

Yuan Fang dared not refute Li Huabai, but kept giving Chen Mo pleading glances.

He knew perfectly well that Chen Mo was the one in charge of this family. Even his sister-in-law, with her extraordinary abilities, was completely subservient to Chen Mo. For this alone... Yuan Fang admired Chen Mo immensely.

Chen Mo said, "Yuan Fang has been protecting Hua Bai day and night recently, which has been a great service. He should stay and listen as well."

Yuan Fang was very excited and raised his eyebrows at Li Huabai, showing a bit of pride, "Listen to this... Young Master doesn't treat me like an outsider."

Li Huabai: "..."

Actually, seeing that Chen Mo left Yuanfang, Li Huabai felt relieved.

Just then, Su Yuqing spoke up: "Jinlong Temple is indeed related to the Rakshasa Shrine. The Jinlong Temple, which was once at its peak a hundred years ago, suddenly disappeared because of the Rakshasa Mother..."

As Su Yuqing recounted her story, a hidden tale from a century ago slowly surfaced:

A hundred years ago, Jinlong Temple was the only force capable of suppressing demons besides the governor's mansion. The Buddha and Buddha Queen were the heads of a first-rate family in the Southern State, possessing profound Taoist cultivation.

By chance, a tribe called the Ouyang clan at the foot of the Great Snow Mountain suffered a disaster and struggled to survive. A member of the tribe named Ouyang Danli left the Great Snow Mountain and came to Jinlong Temple to pray for blessings.

Coincidentally, the Buddha discovered this person's extraordinary nature: this person also possessed the bloodline to suppress demons.

It's important to understand that at that time, there were only two demon-suppressing forces in Nanzhou: the Governor's Mansion and the Golden Dragon Temple. Apart from these two forces, only those affiliated with these two major forces possessed the demon-suppressing bloodline.

This Ouyang Danli actually has the bloodline of a noble family.

After some investigation, the Buddha and his wife discovered the secrets of the Great Snow Mountain tribe. They also gradually uncovered the secrets of the Ghost King's Tomb.

It turns out that the reason why the Ouyang clan has the bloodline to suppress demons is because they have worshipped the Ghost King for generations and are descendants of the Ghost King.

Later, the Buddha and Buddha Mother discovered that the bloodline of this Ghost King's descendant was extremely powerful, much more powerful than that of the Golden Dragon Temple.

Later, the Buddha and his wife began to have evil intentions.

Under the guise of performing a ritual at the Ouyang clan's tribe, they took the opportunity to steal the map showing the location of the clan chief's Ghost King Tomb.

The Buddha and his wife entered the Great Snow Mountain for the first time to search for the Ghost King's tomb. They returned empty-handed, unable to enter, and nearly died inside.

Later, the Rakshasa Mother appeared.

Rakshasa Mother found Buddha and Buddha Mother, and the three of them reached an agreement. They then explored the Ghost King's Tomb again.

This time, the three still failed to enter the Ghost King's Tomb and nearly died again. However, for some reason, Rakshasa Mother obtained the Ghost King's blood and subsequently rose to power rapidly.

He immediately became the number one evil in Nanzhou.

No one can rival him.

The Buddha and Buddha Mother have also become the Rakshasa Mother's little devils and puppets, helping the Rakshasa Mother to collect incense offerings.

For the next hundred years, the Buddha and his consort never gave up searching for the Ghost King's tomb. They even retired from public life, entrusting the task of maintaining the incense offerings to other elderly monks. They then devoted all their energy to finding the Ghost King's tomb.

After hearing this story, everyone present took a deep breath.

Yuanfang sighed, "No wonder Jinlong Temple suddenly went into seclusion; it turned out they were freeing up resources to search for the Ghost King's Tomb. Did the Buddha find the Ghost King's Tomb later?"

Su Yuqing shook her head: "We couldn't find them. The Ouyang clan suffered as a result. They were all tortured and most of them were killed by the Buddha and Buddha. Only a few escaped."

A few managed to escape?

Ouyang Lu? Ouyang Yu?
They, the brother and sister, came to him seeking refuge.

There is an increasing amount of matching information.

Chen Mo said in a deep voice, "The Buddha and Buddha Mother have searched for a hundred years and haven't found anything?"

Su Yuqing said, "There have been some gains. To enter the Ghost King's Tomb, we need to pass through a special area. People die in this area. The Buddha and his wife, as well as Rakshasa Mother, almost died in that area. According to the Buddha and his wife's investigation, we need to find a special jade stone to pass through that area."

Chen Mo was taken aback: "A special kind of jade? Do you have a more detailed description?"

Su Yuqing shook her head: "No. This is the speculation of the Buddha and his parents. In addition, Rakshasa Mother has also been looking for this jade. Obviously, Rakshasa Mother also wants to enter the Ghost King's Tomb."

Li Huabai said, "That Ghost King... is at least a Qing Ghost. This is an existence that surpasses the Golden Realm of Celestial Beings. Rakshasa Mother relied on the blood of the Ghost King to grow and transform, so naturally she wants to find more Ghost King relics in order to further enhance her cultivation."

Yuan Fang said, "The Azure-Slaying Ghost King? When has our Southern Continent ever had such a terrifying existence? According to historical records, the demons and evil spirits a hundred years ago were not as rampant as they are now. The appearance of a powerful ghost with golden cultivation was already quite remarkable. To think there is an Azure-Slaying Ghost King... I have no idea."

Su Yuqing said, "The Azure Ghost King is a being capable of destroying a region. He's comparable to a top expert in the True Spirit Realm of a human. Even in the current Great Qian Dynasty, he's a first-rate existence. Such a wonderful thing, naturally everyone wants it..."

Chen Mo listened to everyone's discussion, but remained silent.

The Demon King of the Green!

That was indeed something Chen Mo couldn't even imagine.

Aside from the resurrected Jiang Hongyue and the mysterious Xiao Ye... Chen Mo had never seen a being of the level of the Qing Gui in his entire life.

Even with Rakshasa Mother's formidable strength, her cultivation level might not have reached that of the Azure Demon King.

If Chen Mo wants to dismantle Rakshasa's mother and help Jiang Hongyue retrieve the Red Moon Essence, he must obtain the Azure Ghost King. Therefore, heading to the Ghost King's Tomb is an unavoidable step.

call!
Chen Mo breathed a sigh of relief. "Xiao Yu, does the Buddha have any more information about the Azure Demon King in his memories?"

Su Yuqing shook her head: "Buddha and the others have investigated for a hundred years, but they still don't know the origin of the Azure-Slaying Ghost King. It seems that only the Ouyang clan knows. Moreover, Buddha interrogated many members of the Ouyang clan, but he didn't get any information about the Azure-Slaying Ghost King. It seems that these descendants of the Ghost King have lived too long and don't even know about it themselves."

Chen Mo nodded, finding it reasonable.

It seems I'll have to talk to Ouyang Lu and the others later.

jade?

The Ouyang clan... descendants of the Ghost King.

Chen Mo waved his hand, "It's late, everyone should go their separate ways."

After dismissing everyone else, only Chen Mo and Su Yuqing remained in the large living room.

Su Yuqing said, "Young Master, are you really going to that snowy mountain to find the Ghost King's tomb? Judging from the Buddha's memories, that place is extremely terrifying."

Chen Mo said solemnly, "Your second aunt is still lying on my back. I need to help your second aunt find the Red Moon Essence. So I have to go to that Ghost King's Tomb. Moreover, I also want to see the ancient tomb of the Azure Ghost King."

There is just too little sense of security in this world.

One wrong move and you could be killed.

Chen Mo also wanted to become stronger as soon as possible. He didn't want to suffer the same bullying he had experienced with Abbess Huiyuan last time... and be powerless to do anything about it again.

With that in mind, Chen Mo no longer hesitated. "Go and check on Ouyang Lu and his sister, and tell them the story from earlier, and see how they react."

Su Yuqing asked, "What does the young master mean?"

Chen Mo said, "Those two siblings have been wandering for months, which has not been easy for them. They were quite diligent and sensible when they followed us. I don't want to use force unless necessary. It would be best if they confessed themselves. Besides, I only suspect that they are from the Ouyang clan at the moment, but I have no concrete evidence. Go and verify it. So as not to wrongly accuse them."

Su Yuqing: "Young master has a kind heart."

After saying that, Su Yuqing left the living room and went to the neighboring courtyard.

Chen Mo returned to his room, took the brocade box, and went out.

……

In the wing room.

Qin Luoxi curled up in the corner of the bed, lost in thought, utterly despondent.

The thought of her own innocence being defiled by some random kid made her want to disappear into the ground.

She even contemplated suicide.

She considered running away.

But his mind was under that guy's control. And there was a little devil sitting next to him... watching him intently.

Thinking of this, Qin Luoxi felt extremely indignant.

She huddled in the corner, sobbing softly. She looked utterly pitiful.

Seeing Qin Luoxi's pitiful state, Juan'er said, "Princess, please don't be so sad. Actually, my young master is a good person. He's handsome, responsible, and extremely kind to his family."

Humph.

Qin Luoxi scoffed inwardly.

Being good to your own people?
Is this what makes it good?
She rubbed her lips hard, feeling like she wanted to die.

Juan'er continued to comfort her, "Our young master brought us all the way from Nanyang Prefecture to seek business. The journey has been arduous and difficult. The reason he is not letting our princess leave is because he is afraid that she will bring people to retaliate after she leaves. Our young master is thinking of our safety."

Qin Luoxi's face was full of disdain and contempt.

For your safety... are you really going to treat this princess like this?
Where is the law of heaven?

and many more……

Qin Luoxi suddenly cleared her mind and realized something. She finally looked up and said her first words: "You're from Nanyang Prefecture?"

Juan'er: "Mmm."

Qin Luoxi asked, "What's your young master's name?"

Juan'er: "Chen Mo".

Qin Luoxi's eyes widened in disbelief.

Over the years, she had been managing the affairs of the governor's mansion, and naturally had a lot of communication with Qin Nanhe. Qin Nanhe even praised the young man named Chen Mo from Nanyang Prefecture, saying that Chen Mo was a promising talent.

When Li Huabai went to Nanyang Prefecture last time, he visited me at my residence.

Qin Luoxi knew that Chen Mo had killed Hua Yunfeng and others, and had also caused trouble for Rakshasa Mama in Nanyang Prefecture.

Although Qin Luoxi was young and lacked sufficient understanding of the risks associated with ghosts, he was still a person who had been in charge and was quite clever. He also noticed that Juan'er, the little devil, did not seem to be very intelligent.

She sat up, moved closer to Juan'er, and said pitifully, "Your young master has defiled my body, I'm so pathetic. I know what's done is done. But your young master is, after all, my first man, and I want to know more about him. Is that alright?"

Juan'er: "Sure."

Qin Luoxi was delighted: "Has your young master entered the Golden Realm?"

"Ah."

"The other day, a ghost child died at Jinlong Temple. Was it your young master who did it?"

“I was asleep at the time and don’t know what happened. But the young master mentioned it to Sister Su later, and yes, it was indeed the young master who did it.”

hiss!
Qin Luoxi suddenly took a deep breath and stood there stunned.

Unexpectedly, the person who ruined her body was Chen Mo, the very same Chen Mo her father had mentioned, and the same boy who killed the Yin-Yang Ghost Child. Her father had even said he wanted to cooperate with that boy.

I came here specifically to find that kid, didn't I?

That kid is really something.

Thinking about this, Qin Luoxi was no longer so averse to the fact that Chen Mo had abused her body.

Then, Qin Luoxi thought to herself: "This time, my body has been defiled. Consider it a sacrifice of my virtue for my father's great cause. If it can help my father's great cause succeed, then my sacrifice... will be worthwhile."

Thinking about it this way, Qin Luoxi felt much better.

I no longer have any thoughts of dying.

Ouch!

She roared inwardly, sweeping away all distracting thoughts.

After composing herself, Qin Luoxi asked, "Juan'er, does your young master have many women?"

Juan'er: "My young master has always been virtuous and has few women."

That's fine...

Qin Luoxi asked again, "How much is 'not much'?"

Juan'er counted them on her fingers.

Qin Luoxi's heart sank instantly.

so much?
Finally, Juan'er pressed down all her fingers, saying, "Oh dear, this is too complicated, I can't explain it."

Still can't explain it?
Beast!
Qin Luoxi thought to herself.

Just then, footsteps sounded outside, and Chen Mo walked in. "Juan'er, didn't I tell you not to say anything more? You've been fooled and you don't even know it."

Juan'er immediately stood up, her face full of grievance: "I think this sister is so pitiful, crying here all night."

Chen Mo dismissed Juan'er: "You should go and fix your puppet."

Juan'er immediately ran off.

Only Chen Mo and Qin Luoxi remained in the room.

Qin Luoxi was still looking at Chen Mo with fiery eyes.

But Chen Mo could sense that the woman's anger wasn't as intense as before, and her emotions were relatively stable.

Click.

Chen Mo handed the brocade box to Qin Luoxi: "Here are your two talismans back. I ate the Human Pill and the Five-Flower Ghost Flesh that day. Don't be afraid, and don't do anything foolish. I'm just not letting you go. I won't mistreat you."

Humph.

Not abused yet?

Qin Luoxi turned her head to one side.

Chen Mo didn't say much; he just wanted to make sure the other person was calm.

What if the other party gets so excited that they commit suicide... then the Prince of Zhennan will surely come after me.

"You should rest well. Just call me if you need anything. But don't try to leave here, or your spirit will kill you. If you want anything to eat, just have Juan'er make it."

After giving him a word of advice, Chen Mo turned to leave.

As they reached the door, Qin Luoxi behind them spoke up: "Wait."

Chen Mo turned around: "Is there anything else?"

Qin Luoxi felt incredibly ashamed under Chen Mo's icy gaze.

Perhaps because she had imagined some unpleasant scenes, she hesitated to look Chen Mo in the eye and lowered her head slightly: "I know your name is Chen Mo. You're the one who killed that Yin-Yang Ghost Child. I came to Qianfo County to find you. How about we make a deal?"

Chen Mo pointed to the brocade box: "Your treasures are all here, what do you have to trade with me?"

Click.

Qin Luoxi gritted her teeth: "I'm talking about the deal at the Ghost King's Tomb."

Chen Mo was surprised by Qin Luoxi's question and immediately became interested. "How do we make the deal?"

Qin Luoxi said, "My father has also been searching for the Ghost King's Tomb. And he has obtained a lot of information. The Buddha Parents are searching for the Ghost King's Tomb. Rakshasa Mother is also searching. Whoever finds the Ghost King's Tomb first and obtains the Ghost King's inheritance within will have the potential to stand above Rakshasa Mother and dominate the Southern Continent. Release me, and I will take you to see my father. How about it?"

Let you go?
Chen Mo shook his head.

Qin Luoxi gritted her teeth and said, "Without my father's help, you wouldn't be able to find the Ghost King's Tomb."

Chen Mo still resolutely shook his head.

Qin Luoxi hadn't expected Chen Mo to refuse so firmly, and thinking of serving her father, she gritted her teeth and said, "Since you've defiled me, I'll marry you. That way, you won't have to worry about my father blaming you for ruining my body, nor will you have to worry about me retaliating against you afterwards. Is that alright?"

Chen Mo was quite surprised, thinking to himself: This dignified princess... is really willing to sacrifice herself for the Ghost King's Tomb.

Just then, Su Yuqing turned back and arrived outside the side room.

"Young master, Ouyang Lu and his sister want to speak with you. They say it's something important."

Ok.

Chen Mo nodded, then turned to Qin Luoxi in the room and said, "I'll think about it some more."

After saying that, Chen Mo hurriedly went out the door and followed Su Yuqing to find Ouyang Lu and his sister.

Qin Luoxi, sitting in the room, stared wide-eyed, feeling an indescribable sense of shame.

I've already lowered myself so much, and that guy still wants to think about it?
