Two Realms: Don't call me evil!

Chapter 479 Two Thousand Ghosts

Three days flew by.

During the three days, Su Jie did not stay in the mansion to practice in seclusion. Instead, he wandered around Nanyang City accompanied by his guide Li Chunhai, mainly to learn the experience of the advanced people of Tianhun Sect in harvesting the aura of fear, and to think about whether he would have the opportunity to use it in the future on Blue Star.

However, during the stroll, there was a remark that involved him.

No one knew where the rumor came from, but the rumor that Su Jie despised the Chongzhou magic sect made Su Jie inexplicably the center of the storm.

It was obvious that someone was deliberately throwing mud at him, but Su Jie didn't care. His strong strength was the basis of his confidence.

Three days later, it was the day of the 300th birthday of the leader of Tianhun Sect.

In a huge mansion, red lanterns with the word "longevity" hung high, and red silk and colorful satin were hung all over the corridor. The golden word "longevity" on the gate was particularly dazzling in the sun. Birthday flower baskets were placed on both sides, and fresh flowers were alternating with pine and cypress, symbolizing evergreen and longevity. A festive atmosphere filled the air.

Beautiful maids were carrying all kinds of delicacies and fine wines, coming and going in the courtyard. In the central courtyard, there was a large birthday banquet table, covered with bright red brocade, and the plates were piled with sweet birthday peaches and auspicious birthday noodles. On the table next to it, there were towering birthday candles, the flames were jumping, and the sound of stringed instruments and zithers floated in the air, melodious and pleasant.

All the outer disciples of Tianhun Sect were seated at a long table. Naturally, due to their status and position, they were not qualified to enter the mansion. Only the inner disciples, elders, and guests who came to celebrate the birthday were allowed to enter.

"Xu Qingshan from Tianlang Village presented a Qingfeng pine tree to Master Lu, wishing him longevity and eternal youth."

"Chen Xushui from Huanzhonglou presents me with a portion of Heavenly Fox Marrow Fluid and a pair of Golden Phoenix Colored Glaze Bottles. I wish Sect Master Lu good fortune as vast as the East Sea and a long life as long as the Southern Mountains. I hope that I can lead the Heavenly Soul Sect to become stronger and more prestigious, and spread the prestige of our Demonic Path."

"Golden Glory Sect"

As it was approaching noon, guests who came to celebrate the birthday arrived one after another, and rare gifts were presented one after another.

Those who come to celebrate the birthday are basically led by those from the Secret Treasure Realm, and they bring along a few outstanding disciples from other sects to broaden their horizons.

As the host, Tianhun Sect also arranged elders to receive guests at the gate of the mansion. They would greet each guest who came to celebrate the birthday warmly, and then ask the sect's inner disciples to take the guests to their seats.

"Chang Shiyang from the Blood Demon Cave presents me with a bottle of the Eighth Rank Spiritual Spring Pill. I wish Sect Master Lu a long life and a bright future."

"Guiling Palace Su Jie, I wish Master Lu a long life and good health."

Almost two voices were heard one after the other, and the noisy atmosphere of conversation in front of the mansion door was frozen for a moment.

But everyone present was an old hand, and they quickly suppressed their expressions and started talking to each other again. However, they couldn't help but glance towards the entrance to look at the two people who had been at the center of the public opinion storm these days.

In the crowd, Su Jie was wearing a loose black Taoist robe. He had a tall and slender figure, his long hair was casually tied behind his head, his eyes were deep and bright, and as he walked, the spiritual energy of heaven and earth resonated and swirled around Su Jie, making others respect him.

Not far away, Chang Shiyang was wearing a blood-red gown. The moment he saw Su Jie, his face became visibly gloomy and dark, as if he was about to go berserk and kill someone at any time.

"Today is Master Lu's birthday. I don't want to dirty the floor and ruin his mood. You should be grateful for sparing your life."

Su Jie glanced at Chang Shiyang and said with a sneer.

"you"

Chang Shiyang's teeth were grinding, and just as he was about to say something, Di Xiu beside him pressed his shoulder in time.

"Master Chang, Master Su, please come in quickly. Stop standing at the door chatting. Otherwise, if someone sees us, they might think that we, the Tianhun Sect, don't know how to entertain guests."

At the same time, Xue Xin, who was receiving guests at the door, also spoke up and stood between Su Jie and Chang Shiyang without leaving a trace, to prevent a conflict between the two, which would have been difficult to deal with.

"I'm not the kind of person who would argue with trash."

Su Jie withdrew his gaze and, accompanied by Xue Xin, stepped into the mansion.

"Asshole, you are so proud now, but you will regret it one day."

Chang Shiyang's heart was filled with hatred that surged like a tide. He looked at Su Jie's back, clenched his fists, and looked extremely ugly.

"Young Master, please restrain yourself."

Di Xiu reminded them that they were afraid that Chang Shiyang would do something irrational, and that the two of them really could not beat Su Jie, and the occasion was not right.

"Hmph! Let's go!"

Chang Shiyang took more than ten seconds to calm down his anger before walking into the mansion.

The mansion was very lively at this time, with guests walking and chatting. The exquisite dishes flowing like water were all made from various magical rices, magical birds and magical wines. After being carefully cooked, the aroma of wine was overflowing, and the table was full of delicacies, making people salivate.

In the center of the hall, there is a dancer in gorgeous costumes, dancing to the melodious sound of piano, her long sleeves like clouds and her dancing posture graceful.

Inside the birthday hall, a man wearing a red robe, a golden crown on his head, with a hooked nose and thin eyebrows was sitting on a high seat, accepting the endless stream of guests who came to toast him.

The man looked to be in his fifties and didn't look like a 300-year-old man at all.

This person is the birthday boy today, the leader of Tianhun Sect, Lu Jingshi.

Su Jie followed Xue Xin forward. Lu Jingshi dismissed a group of visiting guests and took the initiative to say to Su Jie with a smile: "Master Su, I can call you that, it's been more than half a year since the sect war. Now Master Su is even more elegant than before. This speed of progress is worthy of being a demon immortal seedling, it's amazing!"

At the end of the sect war, Lu Jingshi had met Su Jie once, and he also knew the important reason for the righteous defeat in the sect war, which was that Su Jie had tampered with the Baichuan Fuhai Formation, causing the righteous coalition to be backlashed by the formation and laying the foundation for the victory of Guiling Palace.

"Master Lu, you are too polite. I only have a few tricks. They are nothing."

Su Jie spoke modestly. The Lu Jingshi in front of him was just like the Sect Master of Guiling Palace. They were both powerful Daotai realm masters. It was a virtue that he should remain humble, and he couldn't put on a bad face like he did to other small fry.

"Elder Xue has already told me about your request. Five hundred third-grade evil spirits are a bit too many. We still have disciples to train, so we can't sell that many.

But considering the friendship with Guiling Palace, I have agreed to this quantity. We will provide 500 third-grade evil spirits, 500 second-grade evil spirits, and 1,000 first-grade evil spirits. The price will be based on the price for disciples within the sect, and will be delivered to you at a 30% discount."

Lu Jingshi didn't waste any words. He had already known about Su Jie's request from Xue Xin.

Xue Xin winked at Su Jie, indicating that this was the result of his best efforts to persuade him. Su Jie was stunned. It was not that the conditions were bad, but that they were too good.

There were a full two thousand evil spirits, and not only was the price not increased, but there was also a 30% discount. This was far beyond his expectations.

If it were Su Jie himself, if an outside sect came to Su Jie to buy poisonous insects, there would be no way Su Jie would not charge them a huge sum of money. They would not be so easy to talk to.

"Thank you, Sect Master Lu, for your help. However, if you have any other requirements for this plan, please tell me as well."

Things went more smoothly than Su Jie had imagined. Originally, he thought that Tianhun Sect would make things difficult for him, or even directly refuse the deal.

However, this pie-in-the-sky plan made Su Jie think that the other party had other purposes. Could it be that the other party was not coveting the spirit stones, but something else?
Just as Su Jie was thinking, he heard Lu Jingshiyi's heroic words.

"Master Su, our two Demon Sects are closely related. I always like to help others achieve their goals. This plan does not have any other requirements.

On the contrary, I just hope that Master Su understands that the righteous path is still a threat, and our real enemies are not each other, but those righteous hypocrites.

Especially recently, the righteous forces in Qingzhou have been making moves again, especially the Guanchao Pavilion. I don't know what has gone wrong these days. They insist that we killed their supreme elder and are looking for trouble with us everywhere.

I hope that Master Su can go back and see Master Zhang and explain my intentions. Our two families need to cooperate sincerely and join hands to fight against the righteous path in order to survive better in Qingzhou. If we are disunited, we will only be divided and defeated by the righteous path."

After saying this, Lu Jingshi looked very depressed.

He had been very angry these days because the Guanchao Pavilion had gone crazy, saying that Zhuang Liangru and Zhao Junde, two supreme elders of the Daotai realm, had been killed, and they pointed the finger at the Tianhun Sect for the murderer.

No matter what the people in Guanchao Pavilion said, a large amount of residual Yin energy and traces of a powerful soul flag magic formation were detected at the scene of death.

As everyone knows, the Tianhun Sect is the most proficient in playing with ghosts and soul-summoning flags in Qingzhou.

The killing of Zhuang Liangru and Zhao Junde, two supreme elders at the Daotai realm, must have been the result of the Tianhun Sect’s intervention; they cannot be insulated from the incident.

Lu Jingshi was very depressed about this, because he asked all the elders in the sect, and combined with the recent records of going out, he ruled out the suspicion of his own sect. Moreover, if he wanted to kill two Daotai realms, the elders of the sect could not do it even if they wanted to!

But unfortunately, Guanchao Pavilion didn't believe a word of Lu Jingshi's explanation, and insisted that they were the ones who did it. They even dispatched troops and wanted to take up arms to declare war on Tianhunmen. The smell of gunpowder of war was very strong.

At times like this, it is particularly important to establish a good relationship with Guiling Palace and build friendships with them. This is the only external aid that he could possibly get.

When Su Jie heard what Lu Jingshi said, the corners of his mouth twitched slightly and he almost couldn't help laughing out loud. It seemed that the Tianhun Sect had taken the blame for him.

But it makes sense if you think about it. Although Su Jie also has ghosts and soul-calling banners, Guanchao Pavilion knows this information.

However, Guanchao Pavilion obviously did not believe that Su Jie could kill Zhuang Liangru. After all, one was at the Daotai realm and the other was at the Mizang realm, and the gap in strength was too huge.

Excluding Su Jie's correct answer, according to Guanchao Pavilion's thinking, the murderer must be the evil sect Tianhunmen. After all, when it comes to manipulating evil spirits and soul-summoning banners, Tianhunmen ranks second and no one dares to claim to be first.

Our own supreme elder died in a battle with the evil ghost banner. Who else could the murderer be but the Tianhun Sect?

"The death of the Grand Elder of Guanchao Pavilion is a big deal! Don't worry, Sect Master Lu, I will definitely convey your words and tell Sect Master Zhang everything. As the saying goes, the lips and teeth are cold, and I will do my best to promote cooperation between the two sides.

This Guanchao Pavilion lost the sect war, but it still refuses to behave itself. It has healed its wounds so quickly and forgotten the pain. We must frighten it and join forces with Guiling Palace and Tianhun Sect to show it our determination, so that it won't gather a group of sects to attack again."

Su Jie nodded heavily and assured that everyone else had taken the blame for him, so he just delivered the message and both sides were clear.

As for whether Zhang Junwei will unite, a sect meeting will have to be held. Su Jie's verbal guarantee means nothing.

Su Jie also figured out why the Tianhun Sect was so easy to talk to this time.

To some extent, this is the same as Su Jie bribing Xue Xin to say something good for him.

Through this behavior, Lu Jingshi also wanted to make Su Jie say a few good words in front of Zhang Junwei, so as to promote the strong alliance of the two demon sects and counter the pressure exerted by Guanchao Pavilion.

However, Lu Jingshi could never have dreamed that the one who made their Tianhun Sect bear the blame was none other than Su Jie, who was talking to him in front of him. If he knew the truth, he would have slapped him long ago.

"That's right, that's the truth. Master Su, your words hit the nail on the head! Our two families should and must unite."

A look of joy appeared on Lu Jingshi's face; it seemed that his previous gesture of goodwill had had a very obvious effect.

Su Jie is an important figure in Guiling Palace, a demon immortal seedling, and a top-level expert in the Secret Treasure Realm. With Su Jie mediating in Guiling Palace, the possibility of the two families uniting is greater.

"Master Lu, I hate to see the righteous bully others. As the head of the Puppet Hall, I also have rocket launchers and other puppets under my name. I believe Lu Jingshi has seen their power. I am willing to sell them to the Tianhun Sect."

Su Jie's eyes turned, and he suddenly thought of something, and patted his chest with a very righteous look.

"Oh, that's true."

Lu Jingshi's eyes lit up. He had seen rocket launchers in action during the great sect wars. Their power was beyond words. When they formed a formation, the killing range was huge. It was not good for dealing with strong ones, but it was definitely a magical weapon for killing low-level cultivators.

"Master Lu, do you not trust me? I mean what I say. Considering the friendship between our two sects, I am willing to sell it to Tianhun Sect for 3000 spirit stones per rocket launcher and 50 spirit stones per rocket. This is the cost price of our Puppet Hall. I am not doing this for profit, but mainly to make friends and support our brother sect."

Su Jie smiled and said, "Well, this price is only ten times higher than the production cost of Puppet Hall, but this is an arms trade, so we still have to keep this small profit."

The corner of Lu Jingshi's mouth twitched slightly. Although he didn't know puppetry and no one in Tianhunmen could play that, he had seen rocket launchers. Judging from the materials alone, the cost of those standard-produced rocket launchers could not be that expensive.

But now that the situation of Tianhunmen was like this, Lu Jingshi could only nod and said, "Okay, this price is very reasonable. We can first purchase 1,000 vehicles, plus the matching rockets. I will let the elders discuss the details with you later."

Although he knew that there was a price increase, Lu Jingshi had no choice but to spend some money in order to make friends with Su Jie, an important figure in Guiling Palace.

Who says fortune has changed? In the past, it was Guiling Palace that needed help from Tianhun Sect, and now it is Tianhun Sect's turn to need help from Guiling Palace.

"Okay, okay, that's absolutely no problem."

Su Jie showed a bright smile on his face. With this round trip, not only could he offset the money he spent on buying the evil ghost, but he could also make a lot of money from the Tianhun Sect. He was so happy.
