Peach Blossom Forest, Taohua Village.
Yuan Jing’s face was pale, his breath unsteady, as he sat on a chair at the entrance of the main hall, resting and recovering.
Shen Ying stood outside the main hall, holding a spell in her hand, while the peach trees in the courtyard of Taohua Village grew densely, and two eerie ghost creatures were rushing left and right within, unable to escape.
Moreover, the Peach Grove was shrouded in peach blossom mist, and they couldn’t see even a zhang ahead.
When Lu Zheng rushed all the way there, he saw this scene.
Exchanging a glance with Shen Ying, Lu Zheng first ca to Yuan Jing’s side.
"Senior brother, are you okay?"
Yuan Jing waved his hand, though still sowhat embarrassed, "Just a minor injury, I was careless for a mont, didn’t expect there to be two of them."
Lu Zheng nodded, indicating that it was understandable.
He reached into his robe, took out a porcelain bottle, poured out an elixir, and handed it to Yuan Jing.
"This is a healing elixir prepared by Qingyan. Though most of it is common herbs, it contains so Centennial Jade Ginseng. After taking one, it should have so effect."
"Thank you, junior brother!"
Yuan Jing did not hesitate, took it and imdiately swallowed it. After a mont, his complexion indeed improved a bit.
Seeing that Yuan Jing’s injuries were indeed not severe, Lu Zheng felt relieved, and then he ca to Shen Ying’s side, looking at the Peach Grove in the courtyard, then gave Shen Ying a thumbs up, "Wife, you are amazing."
Shen Ying slightly curled her lips, also very proud.
These two ghost creatures were not weak in Dao Practice; otherwise, they wouldn’t have been able to ambush Yuan Jing.
It should be known that since Yuan Jing was stimulated by Lu Zheng and Guangyue and had private lessons from Daoist Mingzhang, his cultivation had recently advanced considerably.
Even so, the two ghosts were trapped by Shen Ying in the Peach Grove, unable to win or escape.
It can be seen that Shen Ying’s strength had greatly increased now.
Seeing the two eyes, Lu Zheng couldn’t help but ask, "Do they have a backer?"
Yuan Jing nodded and took out a bronze pot from his pocket.
This pot was made of bronze, looking quite ancient, with inscriptions of dragon-headed beasts on its surface, decorated with cloud patterns around.
Opening the pot lid, there was a faint mix of Yin and Yang Qi.
"At night, I passed by a village and happened to see one of the ghost creatures holding a bronze pot, absorbing the Yang Qi of the entire villagers.
So I took action to seize it, intending to eliminate him, but unexpectedly another ghost creature suddenly appeared and ambushed . Carelessly, I got injured and had to flee north.
On the way, the two ghost creatures demanded the return of the bronze pot, saying it bore the imprint of their master, and if not returned, once their master finished cultivating, he would co and kill .
I initially planned to escape back to White Cloud Temple, but these two ghost creatures were not weak, entangling and making it hard to progress, so I turned to Taohua Village to ask Fairy Shen for help."
Shen Ying laughed, "We are family, naturally should do so, Daoist Yuan Jing, no need for courtesy, it makes happy too."
Lu Zheng nodded and smiled, "I’ve already sent Qingyan to Shaotong Mountain, the master should arrive soon."
Hearing this, Yuan Jing also breathed a sigh of relief, then closed his eyes to ditate, urging the dicine to hasten the recovery of his injuries.
Relieving a breath here as well, Lu Zheng, seeing this copper pot and those two ghost creatures, actually also felt relieved.
From the quality of this bronze pot, to the fact of handing it to these two ghost creatures, it seems, even if the owner of this bronze pot is more formidable than the three, it may not be to a degree of a qualitative leap.
Even if Daoist Mingzhang is not inford, with the joint efforts of the three plus the geographical advantages of Taohua Village, they might not fear him.
Of course, if Daoist Mingzhang could co, it would be even more stable.
Lu Zheng stood next to Shen Ying, gazing at the two ghost creatures trying to break the array in the courtyard.
"Where does this little Earth God co from, daring to ddle in Black Wheel King’s affairs!"
"Release us imdiately and let that Daoist return the Refining Yang Pot, or when the master arrives, you’ll all die!"
Lu Zheng raised an eyebrow, "So arrogant?"
Shen Ying nodded and laughed, "These two ghost creatures are not weak in Dao Practice. If I just want to kill them, though it could be troubleso, it’s not difficult, but it would hinder the use of the Ghost Controlling Technique.
Wanting to exhaust them by myself, I’m afraid the longer it takes, the more dreams at night, and truly summon that master here."
Shen Ying looked at Lu Zheng, eyebrows and eyes filled with laughter, warmly said, "It’s good you ca, Lu Lang. These two ghost creatures are not weak, just right for restraining and controlling with the Ghost Controlling Technique."
"You don’t need them?" Lu Zheng asked.
"I have enough people, even if I need so runners, I can easily grab so ghost creatures from the Netherworld, no need to use such century-old ghosts."
Shen Ying uses "Peach Blossoms" as the source, Incense and Candle Qi as the foundation, Uncle Qian, Uncle An, Xiaocui, and the Eighteen Celestial Maidens are all attached to the older peach trees, sharing her Incense and Candle Qi, with her as the main, so she generally doesn’t need the Ghost Controlling Technique.
So she usually cultivates the Divine Communication Technique within, condensing the Divine Soul.
When the ti cos, if she just wants a little ghost who doesn’t share the Incense and Candle Qi but needs life and death control, she will use it then.
Lu Zheng looked at the two ghost creatures trapped in the Peach Grove, surrounded in ghost Qi, black smoke billowing, indeed terrifying century-old ghosts.
"Good! Let’s work together and capture them!"
Shen Ying saved them so attentively for him; how could he not accept this kindness?
Lu Zheng patted on a gourd, and a peachwood sword appeared in his hand. Then, with a wave of the long sword, a Flying Cloud Breaks Evil Curse shot into the Peach Grove, striking one of the ghost creatures.
"Ah!"
The ghost creature let out a miserable howl, abruptly waking up.
"Mystic Sect Curse!?"
"Is it a fellow disciple of that Daoist!?"
"More formidable than that Daoist, no good, even more, Peach Blossom Evil, has this Earth God reserved power?"
At this ti, another True Cloud Curse broke through the eerie ghost Qi, hitting another ghost creature attempting to break the array.
The ghost creature cried out in pain, unable to hold back and roared, "My master will arrive soon, by then we’ll have you all dead!"
Lu Zheng laughed loudly, "Let him co, we will be here waiting for him, but whether you can hold on until he arrives is another matter."
"What?"
"Such arrogance!"
The two ghost creatures roared in rage, attempting to charge straight at Lu Zheng, yet they heard Lu Zheng’s voice echoing from all directions.
"If you have the guts, undo the array, let’s face off like n!"
"If you have the guts, wait till our master arrives; see if you still have such swagger!"
Lu Zheng shook his head, continually casting spells to wear down the two ghosts.
The True Cloud Curse and the Flying Cloud Breaks Evil Curse consud the ghost’s Yin Qi as if it was free, along with the Peach Blossom Evil cooperation, for a mont, the two ghosts couldn’t hold on anymore.
The two ghosts no longer thought of escape, rely struggling to hold on, waiting for reinforcents.
However...
Lu Zheng chuckled and flashed in, using Cloud Qi to bind the two ghosts, then applied a Body-Freezing Curse on each, followed by layer upon layer of Cloud Sealing Curses.
He patted the gourd, took out an Ink Jade Token from it, and pinched a seal with his hand, collecting the two ghosts inside.
