Mortals: Take Mo Juren at the start
Chapter 852: The Yellow Spring Ghost Mother and a Successful Solution
Chapter 852: The Yellow Spring Ghost Mother and a Successful Solution
"Haha, you finally let me out." Dark green yin energy spread out, accompanied by bursts of strange laughter, and quickly condensed into a female figure above Palace Master Liu's head.
"Ghost cultivator!" Han Li and Bai Yaoyi both showed shock on their faces, but Mo Juren on the side stared at the figure calmly with amusement in his eyes.
He naturally knew the origin of this person. She was the Yellow Spring Ghost Mother in the original novel, a being whose strength was comparable to that of a half-step deity.
It may be troublesome to others, but to him, it is delicious.
"Huh!" The Yellow Springs Ghost Mother had a keen sense of perception and immediately noticed that Mo Juren was different. She did not show any surprise from beginning to end. Instead, she stared at her with interest.
"Boy, you recognize my mother!"
"You are the Ghost Mother of the Underworld. Naturally, I have heard of your 'great reputation'." Mo Juren did not deny it and replied with a smile. After he said this, Han Li next to him did not have any impression, but Bai Yaoyi's face suddenly changed drastically.
"You are indeed not a simple person. You actually know my origins!" Huangquan Ghost Mother was just guessing, but she didn't expect that you guessed it right. She looked at him carefully for a while and asked again,
"You are only in the middle stage of the Nascent Soul Realm, but you possess such strange means that even a late stage cultivator like Liu Yatou cannot stop you. This old mother is getting more and more curious. Can you explain this to me?"
Although Huangquan Ghost Mother was confident of her great strength, she was not stupid. She looked extremely calm from beginning to end, which made her instinctively alert.
She did not take action immediately, but wanted to test it out first.
However, Mo Juren didn't want to waste time talking to him. Firstly, the secret of the imperial edict could not be revealed, and secondly, he didn't want to waste time. After all, the imperial edict was still in effect, and a large amount of mana was wasted every minute and every second.
"I don't have the habit of explaining to others, especially since you are not even a human being. What qualifications do an old witch who has been dead for who knows how many years have to ask me for explanations?" Mo Juren smiled coldly, with no disguising the sarcasm and insult in his tone.
Sure enough, upon hearing this, the Yellow Springs Ghost Mother became instantly furious.
It is true that she has entered the ghost path, but she is also a powerful person who has left a great name in the entire history of Dajin.
A human boy who is only in the middle stage of Yuanying dared to speak such dirty words to her, he was simply seeking death.
As for the method used by the other party, it was indeed a bit strange, but she did not take it seriously.
"Okay, okay! Boy, since you are seeking death, then this old mother will grant your wish." Along with a sharp ghost howl, ghost energy instantly erupted from the body of the Yellow Springs Ghost Mother, filling the entire hall in an instant.
For a moment, the surroundings were filled with dark green ghost energy and nothing could be seen clearly. The ghost energy was extremely dark and evil, and anything that came into contact with it, whether it was a dead object or a flower or plant, began to be rapidly corroded.
In response, Mo Juren's expression did not change at all. He immediately flashed in front of Bai Yaoyi, and a white light shield appeared, covering the two of them.
He did not release the divine thunder to ward off evil, but instead used his own spiritual power and divine light. The effect was naturally much worse, but he was still able to hold on.
This was of course done intentionally, and the purpose was self-evident, which was to leave some loopholes.
As for Han Li, the other party didn't need to do so.
As expected, as soon as he released the spiritual power shield, Han Li took action at the same time. A faint golden light appeared on the surface of his body, and lightning flashed from time to time, directly purifying the attacking ghost energy.
"Human boy, you are quite kind to women. But this 'Yellow Spring Ghost Mist' of this old mother is far from being as simple as ordinary ghost energy. Ordinary protective light shields cannot block it." The sinister laughter of the Yellow Spring Ghost Mother sounded in the ghost energy, with undisguised sarcasm. Obviously, her attention was all on Mo Juren, and she did not notice Han Li's abnormality.
"Really?" Mo Juren laughed, and the Thunder Seal rose into the air, carrying a sky full of golden lightning, and smashed directly towards the opponent.
He did not hold back at all when it came to the Thunder Seal, and the evil-repelling divine thunder spread indiscriminately, clearing away all the dark green ghost fog wherever it passed.
"Golden lightning...could it be..." The Yellow Springs Ghost Mother also reacted at this moment, and instantly thought of the origin of the lightning, and immediately exclaimed.
The divine thunder that can ward off evil is the nemesis of all evil practices of ghosts and demons. Even she is extremely afraid of it.
This kid is really incredible. He actually has such a treasure that can contain the divine thunder to ward off evil. I wonder where the seal came from?
Seeing the huge thunder seal coming at her, carrying such a large amount of evil-repelling divine thunder, she naturally did not dare to take it head-on. She subconsciously flashed and flew several feet away.
Before she could stop, Mo Juren had already stretched out his hand in time. A phantom hand of light appeared out of thin air and directly grabbed Palace Master Liu, who had lost his magic power and was standing in place.
"Damn it..." The Yellow Springs Ghost Mother just reacted at this moment. The other party's target was actually Liu Yatou, but she was bound to the latter, and if one suffered, both would suffer.
If Miss Liu died, he would not gain anything either.
Seeing the other party's grim smile and the look as if he was about to take ruthless action, she suddenly became anxious.
Without any hesitation, it turned into a beam of green light and shot out, rushing forward like lightning.
She was not too worried at this time. After all, for ghost cultivators, taking over the body was their most proficient ability, and it was even more effective than other means.
The reason why I didn't use it right away was out of caution. After all, this human boy is a bit weird, so it would be safer to try it out first.
However, no one expected that the boy would be so formidable. Not only did he possess a rare treasure containing divine thunder that could ward off evil spirits, he also had extremely rich combat experience.
He caught her weak spot with one move, forcing her to take risks.
At this moment, she was willing to give it her all and was even secretly happy.
It was an oversight for the other party to release the treasure containing the thunder that could ward off evil, but he himself was left without protection.
This was a great opportunity for her. Since she had already made the move, she naturally had to be quick and succeed before the other party could react.
However, she did not notice that Han Li, who was in another place, had a flash of sarcasm in his black eyes.
However, in the blink of an eye, the Yellow Springs Ghost Mother directly broke through the spiritual power shield, and then, amid Bai Yaoyi's sharp screams, she penetrated into the other person's body extremely smoothly.
Before she could take any further action, she heard a vague voice, and then her ghost body was immediately completely restrained by some invisible force.
"How could this be? This is impossible... No..." At this moment, Huangquan Holy Mother finally realized that she had been fooled. This was not a good opportunity at all, it was clearly a trap deliberately set by the other party.
Unfortunately, it was too late. The power was extremely strange and no matter how she resisted, it was useless. Then she felt that she was forcibly pulled into an unknown space.
At this moment, her whole heart sank to the bottom.
From the beginning of the battle to the end, it only took a few breaths.
Han Li was already accustomed to this and did not find it strange. However, Bai Yaoyi and the woman surnamed Liu were both shocked, especially the latter, whose watery eyes were filled with disbelief.
The Yellow Springs Ghost Mother, the existence that he regarded as his trump card, disappeared so easily?
By chance in the past, she obtained the Yellow Springs Ghost Mother who was sealed in the Xuan Gui Order. No one knew better than her how powerful she was.
It was also with the help of the other party that she was able to reach the late Nascent Soul stage at the age of over 600 years old, and thus took the position of the Master of Xiaoji Palace.
But even with such strength, her mind was still as clear as a mirror. If it weren't for many restrictions, she would not be able to control the other party at all.
Even such a powerful existence seemed as vulnerable as a three-year-old child when facing the person in front of him.
This is unbelievable, who is the other party?
"How about it, Grand Palace Master Liu, do you have any trump cards? If you have any, show them to me." Mo Juren dispersed the light shield around him, and at the same time, he quickly moved his hands, and directly injected a restriction into the opponent's Nascent Soul. This was of course only a temporary restriction, and it would not be so effective for a late Nascent Soul expert. It would probably take several months of effort to remove it.
But this was enough. His purpose of coming here was to recruit Xiaoji Palace, not to make enemies. Moreover, this recruitment was only temporary. When he ascended and left, everything would have nothing to do with him.
As for the method of recruiting, it is nothing more than a combination of kindness and force. As long as you show absolute strength, no one will object even without any kindness.
In this case, there is naturally no need to be too extreme.
Bound by the imperial decree, the woman surnamed Liu had no way of resisting and could only watch as the ban was implemented.
But now, she felt relieved. It turned out that the other party was pretending to be ruthless and did not really intend to take her life.
This is fine. As long as life is not in danger, anything is possible.
"Who are you?" The woman surnamed Liu was too lazy to resist and asked directly.
"It seems that Palace Master Liu's memory is not very good. He has forgotten the information that has just been introduced so quickly." Mo Juren has already withdrawn the imperial edict, and he is not in a hurry at this time.
"My situation is not important. Fellow Daoist, please think about my previous proposal and give me a straight answer whether it is feasible or not."
"Proposal?" The woman surnamed Liu snorted coldly, and then she remembered what the other party had said before.
"You are oversimplifying things. How can it be so easy to become the master of Xiaoji Palace? Even if I agree, what about the major families behind our sect? They will never agree."
"I will take care of the affairs of other families myself. You don't need to worry about it. Just tell me your attitude. Are you willing to give up the throne and support me to become the new generation of Xiaoji Palace master?"
"At this point, do I still have any choice?" The woman surnamed Liu has let it go. Although the position of Palace Master is important, it is nothing compared to her own life.
Why not just let the other party do whatever they want and see what the final outcome will be?
"It's good that Palace Master Liu has figured it out. I'd like to thank you in advance." Mo Juren laughed, but the latter didn't appreciate it at all. He snorted coldly and looked directly at Bai Yaoyi beside him.
"Junior Sister Bai was able to meet such a powerful person during her trip. I am really impressed by her! But he wants to be the master of Xiaoji Palace. What does the Bai family behind you think? Wouldn't Patriarch Bai Xun have any objection?"
"If our ancestor knew about Fellow Daoist Mo's strength, I think he would not object." Bai Yaoyi's eyes flickered slightly, and she chuckled as she answered. However, her words were met with a sneer from the woman surnamed Liu.
"Why, are you still trying to trick Ling Zu here like you did to me before?"
"Of course not. I plan to go to the place where the ancestor is in seclusion and explain the matter to him." Bai Yaoyi seemed not to hear the sarcasm in the other party's words, and suddenly changed the subject.
"But Senior Sister Liu, we will need your help to deal with Master Hanli and Patriarch Yelong."
"You..." The woman surnamed Liu was almost vomiting blood in anger. She had just mocked the other party for being a traitor and helping outsiders to deceive their fellow disciples, but now it was her turn.
"No, I don't agree."
"This matter really needs Senior Sister to take action. I am not familiar with either Patriarch Ye Long or Master Han Li, and I don't have that much face. Senior Sister, as the Palace Master, is the most suitable person to help."
"You are clearly making far-fetched arguments. I don't believe that if I mention the inheritance of Fairy Bingpo, they will not be tempted."
"It's true that he will be tempted, but the biggest possibility is that he won't come over on his own initiative. If I go there with Fellow Daoist Mo, it will inevitably cause unnecessary twists and turns."
"What kind of twists and turns can there be..." The woman surnamed Liu wanted to continue speaking, but was suddenly interrupted by Mo Juren.
"Let's do as Miss Bai said. It is indeed more appropriate for Fellow Daoist Liu to take action."
Hearing this, the woman surnamed Liu was completely speechless.
How could she not understand that all the other two people said were just excuses, and their real purpose was to deliberately "drag her into the water" and deceive Master Hanli and Patriarch Ye Long together.
In this way, no matter what the outcome will be, the two of them will inevitably hate her.
Of course she wanted to refuse, but seeing Mo Juren's unquestionable look, she finally chose to compromise.
They were concerned about their own safety. There were already many contradictions between the major families, and this was not the first time that conflicts had occurred over the years.
Hate her if you want, but don't expect to thank her.
With the help of the woman named Liu, things became extremely simple afterwards.
This time the meeting was held in the meeting hall, and soon Master Hanli and ancestor Ye Long of the Ye family were tricked into coming here one after another.
The result is self-evident. With Mo Juren's powerful means, he was able to capture the two men directly without even the help of the woman surnamed Liu.
Not long after, Bai Yaoyi also found the place where the Bai family ancestor was in seclusion and told him everything.
Upon hearing that it was the descendant of the Ice Soul Fairy and possessed strength comparable to that of a strong man in the Spirit Transformation Stage, Bai Xun immediately gave up the idea of taking action.
In addition, since the woman surnamed Liu, Master Hanli, and Patriarch Ye Long had all surrendered, he naturally would not act recklessly. He immediately rushed to the conference hall with Bai Yaoyi.
As soon as Fang came in, he saw a strange figure sitting on the main seat. As for the three great late-stage monks in the sect, they were standing on both sides of the seat with a look of sorrow on their faces.
Especially Master Hanli and Old Ancestor Yelong.
The "battle" just now made the two of them feel the huge gap between themselves and each other.
I really can’t handle a single move!
The self-confidence of both of them was completely hit.
Although they were tricked into coming here, the fight was not at all sloppy and the opponent did not resort to any sneak attacks.
In a real fight, the two men had no power to resist at all.
When they saw Bai Xun coming, the three of them just looked at each other and then were too lazy to pay any more attention.
After all, with that man's monstrous strength, another one would be of no use, so naturally he wouldn't be interested.
Bai Xun: "..."
Soon the two of them came closer, and Bai Yaoyi immediately made a brief introduction to both parties. At the same time, she specifically pointed out that the ancestor had already agreed to Mo Juren becoming the new master of Xiaoji Palace.
In response to this, Mo Juren naturally expressed his gratitude repeatedly. Being able to resolve the issue so easily was better than starting a war and damaging the harmony. He even directly dispersed the restrictions in the bodies of the three previous people that had no effect in the first place.
This behavior of giving a sweet reward after a slap in the face actually made the three people feel a little bit good about it.
As for taking action again?
Forget it. It's obviously a self-humiliating thing, so the three of them wouldn't be stupid enough to do it.
What's more crucial is that Mo Juren is the descendant of the Ice Soul Fairy, and is not an outsider in essence, so it is acceptable for him to inherit the Xiaoji Palace.
For a moment, the atmosphere in the hall became harmonious.
Suddenly, Patriarch Bai Xun proposed again:
"Since Junior Brother Mo has become the new Palace Master, we naturally have to celebrate. In addition, we also have to inform other families about this matter..."
