Huh? Isn't this an adventure kingdom building game?! Chapter 937 821: Maneuvering (Part 2)
It's reasonable, but the problem is that the entire Netherworld is under Fengdu City's supervision. She sighed secretly, ghost cultivation cannot be done without the Netherworld, so where can I find a place where Fengdu City is invisible?
The other party did not respond, Qu Luming speculated as he pressed forward, "The second matter is related to the first. I know soone important, who has acquired a piece of land in the Netherworld. If all goes well, they might receive special privileges from Fengdu City. If we can negotiate for the protection of ghost cultivators, I'm sure the higher-ups would turn a blind eye."
"Oh? What kind of big shot can make Fengdu City retreat three steps?"
Hearing the softened tone, he knew she was intrigued. He took the opportunity to explain, "It's a Human Race Cultivator. He has a friend nad Bai Yunqi…"
"Tsk! So, this is what's most important here, right?" He Miancun reacted reflexively upon hearing these three words, and the pressure within the black vortex dropped a few degrees, "This matter is related to my cultivation, I advise you not to ddle."
All these years, I've been thinking carefully. Actually, there's not much to love, initially thinking to host a grand wedding ceremony to quell the obsession. Since he is unwilling, I might as well kill his clone to overco the emotional tribulation, which wouldn't affect him much, wouldn't that be a win-win?
Qu Luming bowed again and smiled, "Please do not be angry, Senior, just hear out. Firstly, Bai Yunqi is rely a clone. It's unlucky to take the bla for the main body. It's also unfair to you;
Secondly, he had an encounter which allowed him to coalesce his soul into a singular entity, overcoming the main body's constraints and becoming a true Demon Cultivator, he is already unrelated to the main body. Even if you were to kill him, it would achieve nothing.
Bai Yunqi encountered an important person who wishes to diate and have a proper talk with you, why not listen to what they have to say? Whether it's finding his main body or organizing a grand wedding that pleases everyone, negotiating is better than conflict.
Moreover, by showing so respect to this important person, you can help them shelter these innocent little ghost cultivators. Your obsession can be resolved, Bai Yunqi won't have to hide anymore, and your subordinates will have a refuge to live peacefully, it's advantageous in many aspects."
After finishing his speech, he couldn't help but ntally cheer for himself, "I'm so incredibly brilliant!"
If there was no leverage, ddling with the anger of a lovestruck girl who feels played wouldn't be easy. Isn't it lucky? With Fengdu City in a grand uproar, she has to consider negotiations if she cares about her subordinate's ghost lives.
Qu Luming felt confident. As long as they sat down for a proper discussion, with Mr. Jiang's capabilities, the incident would be resolved perfectly!
"A clone can actually overco the constraints of the main body, that's indeed a problem..." He Miancun thought left and right, unable to find a reason to refuse.
The little ghost cultivators had been captured for quite so ti, with no word.
Though she personally taught them and had confidence in their combat skills, their realms weren't very high. If they encountered troubleso demons or ghosts, they might lose their lives!
Now there's a chance, first, rescue them before anything. As for negotiations, if the other party offers a satisfactory thod to ease her obsession and heart demon, there's no need to keep pursuing Bai Yunqi.
Ultimately, it's because that guy vanished after provoking her. He couldn't be found anywhere, and after finally sensing his aura, finding a clone, how could she not hold on tightly?
"I'll give you a list right away, bring them back quickly, and you'll certainly be rewarded." She chose the best solution, and soon a scroll with nas flew out from the whirlwind.
Qu Luming glanced at it hastily and then ceremoniously took his leave, "There's no ti to lose, I'll imdiately follow the list to find the people. If Senior believes I'm trustworthy, please leave a contact thod so that I can communicate with you anyti. If it's inconvenient, I might trouble you to retrieve them."
For the little ghost cultivators captured as cannon fodder, ti equates to life.
The longer the delay, the fewer that may survive.
He didn't want this ticulously planned drama that successfully extracted 'ghost essence' to ultimately fail without rescue, thus making the whole plan imperfect.
Hurriedly, whilst bribing for the release of the ghost cultivators according to the list, Qu Luming also sent Jiang Yuan a ssage, to prepare him in advance.
So, Jiang Yuan, who was earning points diligently, heard a buzzing sound, opened the new ssage, and saw—The Netherworld there would dispatch personnel to jointly track and capture the three Demon Cultivators responsible for killing contract pets.
But as a trade, they hope the remains of the Book of Life and Death be returned to Fengdu's priority managent after acquiring war trophies, to avoid confusion with the two books.
"They haven't even found the culprits yet, yet they're starting to discuss 'dividing the spoils'. It seems Fengdu is very concerned about another Book of Life and Death suddenly appearing." He chuckled, having no objections.
He inquired earlier about the Book of Life and Death, learning that the deputy judge's counterfeit lacked the power of the original; even minor modifications required a substantial cost, and the detailed content couldn't compare to the system identification.
As a kid watching TV, Sun Wukong storming into the Underworld to alter the Book of Life and Death to grant lifespan or cause death couldn't be realized. Even the complete Book is hardly useful, let alone the torn version the Demon Cultivators have. Since owning it is futile, might as well do a favor and let Fengdu take it.
The other two divine artifacts, the Ten-Thousand-Year Mirror and the Seven-Layered Exquisite Pagoda, caught Jiang Yuan's interest.
When the ti cos to storm forward, Fengdu reserved the Book of Life and Death; he shouldn't demand both other items as a greedy lion? If the skills are impressive, and they play the role all along, claiming two pieces wouldn't be excessive, would it?
Thinking of this, he replied to the ssage, then took out two Skill Upgrade Cards from his Storage Bag, hesitated for a few seconds, and still fed them to the two flas.
Mostly because these two were incredibly useful; other skills, no matter how difficult to upgrade, could accumulate experience, with the possibility to increase; they simply required money to level up, too costly!
The Earth Spirit Fla, no need to ntion, as the level increases, the attack range becos absurdly strong; plus, acquiring the title of the Fire God provides so boost, making it more fluid in use;
The Ice Fla isn't used in daily battles but performs as the main force in clearing World Tree Branch instances!
Especially since the enormous shadow above remains unknown, raising the Ice Fla's level would make it easier in future runs. It embodies a farming ga's essence—daily accumulation prevents weaknesses at critical monts.
Under Qu Luming's maneuvering, when the wilderness again accompanied nightfall, Jiang Yuan and Bai Yunqi, slightly anxious in mood, teleported to the Netherworld.
"Mr. Jiang, this trip to the Netherworld is slightly tight schedule-wise, I hope you both understand." Upon eting, he apologized with a wide smile, then lowered his voice, "I have arranged it well; we'll first visit the Judge to examine the Book of Life and Death and identify the Demon Cultivator Daoist Bai saw.
However, since the Book's ability is limited, even knowing their identity and background, determining their location takes ti. Next, we'll et Lord Jian Shichu of the Demon Nether, to negotiate cooperation strategy in capture affairs.
Fengdu City possesses various tracking thods, let them take the lead; we follow up. Once resolved, as we agreed, the broken Book of Life and Death should be safeguarded by the Judge, then we'll consult on distributing other war trophies.
The tracking might take so ti, allowing us to et Senior He and have a proper discussion, what do you think?"
Without waiting for Jiang Yuan's response, Qu Luming hurriedly added, "Rest assured, Lord Jian is fair-minded, certainly not acting on clues privately, Fengdu won't lose face. If you both find the schedule too tight, I could negotiate with Senior He to push the eting forward."
He thought, anyway, He Miancun's subordinates, little ghost cultivators, were retrieved half alive, half dead, and now by her side. Fengdu wouldn't notice imdiately; pushing back won't be a problem.
"Since Daoist Qu arranged everything, changing it isn't necessary." Hearing his thorough plan, Jiang Yuan smiled and replied, "Let's follow your plan, shall we check the Book of Life and Death now?"
Qu Luming joked as he gestured, "Follow , please. Let add: the Judge is an amiable ghost, just with a peculiar temperant. Do try avoiding too much conversation, with handling all assurances, no worries."
Bai Yunqi pursed his lips, gazed up at the imposing Fengdu City, looking forward to the upcoming eting.
Years flew past, and he wondered whether Jian Shichu, who he once pressed onto the ground, had changed much.
