After hearing what the Queen of Jingjue said, Chu Wuzhi remembered a retired King of Hell he had met earlier.

He once said that the King of Hell's cultivation was affected by his "performance".

The Queen of Jingjue brought the people here to retire, which was indeed to restore the "popularity" of the underworld and thereby enhance her control over it.

A declining underworld doesn’t even have a fixed attraction like the Naihe Bridge.

As Chu Wuji was strolling around, something suddenly occurred to his mind - the underworld collects souls, so could he use the abandoned underworlds in the world to give the Sky Fox Goddess a place to stay?

"Queen Jingjue, if I ask you to take in Yu Yang's soul here, can he stay here forever?"

The female King of Hell, who exuded a mysterious and charming beauty, thought that Chu Wuji was going to pass on the inheritance to him right now, but seeing his serious expression, it seemed that it was not what she thought.

The woman stopped and said:

“No, the underworld cannot accept great monks, it can only take in common people and those monks who are not of the highest rank.

What's more, the underworld does not allow ghosts to stay here forever, but rather extradite and bring back those ghosts that linger.

Even if the common people here are not threatened by natural disasters or man-made calamities, and are not allowed to worry about hunger or disease, and live in peace for more than ten years, their souls will dissipate on their own.

Even the King of Hell is no exception. The King of Hell in the underworld is just a special cultivator. His lifespan depends on his cultivation level. He will die if he is destined to. My mother was the previous King of Hell here."

...That’s right, we guarantee the people’s retirement, but we don’t guarantee their eternal life.

Chu Wuji put away his delusions. He had just been delighted to think that he had found a loophole that he could exploit and let the Fox Goddess stay here to be the King of Hell. It seemed that he was overthinking it.

This road is really blocked. We still have to rely on Yu Shiqi. I hope she can know more secrets of the witch's tomb.

......

I have seen most of the attractions in the underworld, so there is no need to be picky about the palace.

When sneaking into the capital of Jingjue Kingdom, Chu Wuzhi and his group had already looked everywhere in order to find the entrance to the underground city.

Moreover, since you are just taking a temporary break, the comfort of the rooms is not much different, so you can just pick one to stay in.

Chu Wuji called the Queen of Jingjue and the White Peacock, intending to go somewhere else to talk with them privately.

Before moving on, he settled the female family members and sent them to their rooms to rest.

"Mrs. Jiang, if you want to wander around, you can do so at your own will. You don't need to look at my opinion!"

The beautiful woman's expression was subtle. She gave a wry smile, her almond-shaped eyes glancing at the underworld scenery outside the window, and said:

"It's novel, but I don't dare wander around here alone. I just need to rest!"

Xuan Yi was unaware of Chu Wuji's plan to recruit allies, and asked in confusion:

"Why does White Peacock want to join the conversation? What does she have to do with it?"

Bai Kongque was also confused. She had not expected Chu Wuji to call her, but she trusted Chu Wuji's intentions and said:

"Xuan Yi, if we talk about something interesting later, I'll share it with you when I get back."

Xuanyi nodded but didn't follow, after all, Bai Sujin and Xiaoqing stayed.

So, the elder snake spirits stayed in the room with Madam Jiang to rest.

The Queen of Jingjue led the way to the study, and the maid emerged from the shadows again, pulled chairs for Chu Wuji and Bai Kongque, and politely invited them to sit down.

The Queen of Jingjue said:

"Tea and snacks will not be served for now. The taste of food will fade in the underworld, and serving them would be a disrespect to hospitality."

Tea and snacks are indeed not important. The most important thing right now is what Chu Wuji wants to discuss.

Bai Kongque didn't say anything. Her eyes turned to Chu Wuji, waiting for him to explain his intentions.

Her calm and cool eyes were like a clear spring, making people feel like they could see through her at a glance, but it was impossible to figure out her emotions.

Chu Wuji didn't keep anyone in suspense and said straight to the point:

"I can give you the inheritance that the Queen of Jingjue wants, but whether you can comprehend it depends on yourself. No one will teach you step by step. The condition is that you become an ally of the Divine Water Sect.

They are the White Peacock's allies, ready to deal with future enemies."

The Queen of Jingjue and the White Peacock were both stunned. Doubt flashed across their beautiful faces, and their expressions of frowning and thinking were each charming in their own way.

The Queen of Jingjue came to her senses, nodded decisively and agreed, directly accepting the condition.

Although the specific alliance agreement and cooperation content were not discussed, she knew she had to agree and had no other choice.

If she missed this opportunity, she would forever lose the chance to master that ancient heritage!

“Very refreshing, not bad~”

Chu Wuji was quite satisfied with the conversation. It was extremely efficient and they were able to leave after just a few words.

Chapter 457 Negotiation is fun

Chu Wuji nodded in satisfaction, and with a squeak in his soul cave, the magical little fox appeared in the study and released You Yuyang.

You Yuyang was very concerned about matters involving the tribe. He looked resistant, but finally he gently scratched the center of the eyebrows of the Queen of Jingjue. His sharp nails pierced the skin and sent the complete inheritance into her forehead.

The Queen of Jingjue sensed that there was an eye-shaped mark in her soul cave. Upon closer inspection, the mark was actually composed of many ancient characters.

It is indeed the complete inheritance of the You Yu clan!

"You need to become an ally of the Shenshui Sect for fifty years, otherwise this mark will become a curse." Chu Wuji reminded.

This was the excuse that the Fox Goddess came up with for him. In fact, it had no curse effect at all and was purely for scaring people.

Although some more practical means could be used to restrain the Queen of Jingjue, such as "stationing troops" in her spirit cave, the Sky Fox Goddess said that it was not worth doing so and a simple warning would be enough.

"Are there any other conditions?" The Queen of Jingjue looked serious and accepted.

"Gone."

Chu Wuji stood up with a smile, one hand on the back of the chair, already planning to leave.

"......Hmm?" The Queen of Jingjue was stunned. She was waiting for the next condition.

Compared with that precious inheritance, the conditions proposed by Chu Wuji were almost nothing!

She was a little unresponsive.

White Peacock asked the Queen of Jingjue's questions:

"Master Chu, why is it such a condition?"

"As compensation, I have a feeling that Xuanyi's mother might follow me everywhere, which is bad news for you. If the Shenshui Sect wants to truly gain a foothold, it will definitely face a great difficulty in the future. This difficulty comes from the covetousness of the evil cultivators of the demonic way. You really need the backbone of the sect."

"..."

The white peacock nodded in greeting, silently expressing its gratitude.

What Chu Wuzhi mentioned touched her heart. Bai Kongque was indeed worried about Xuan Yi's whereabouts.

When Xuan Yi and Chu Wu Ji first met, she still had an attitude of "I don't need to see my son, he has grown up and become independent", but now, her attitude is obvious to all, and she just occupied his sleeve and refused to come out.

After this trip to pursue Yu Shiqi's concubine is over, Bai Kongque feels that Xuan Yi will really follow Chu Wuzhi.

Bai Kongque would naturally respect Xuanyi's wishes, just as they had agreed at the beginning. Xuanyi could leave whenever he wanted to, but from the perspective of the Shenshui Sect, Bai Kongque did not want to see this happen.

Unexpectedly, Chu Wuji had already thought about this matter for her and found an ally as compensation.

Bai Kongque felt grateful. The Queen of Jingjue was indeed not as profound as Xuan Yi in Taoism, but Chu Wuji had done his best.

It would be great if Chu Wuzhi could stay in the Shenshui Sect, then Xuan Yi would stay with him, as well as the other two dragons.

Unfortunately, Chu Wuji’s background is so great that he can even invite immortals to help him. He is not someone that the Shenshui Sect can afford to support!

"National Master, you can rest assured. I'm not looking for allies for you now and will ignore the situation in the Sun and Moon Kingdom. As long as the situation allows, I will definitely go over to help. At the very least, I will ask Mother Xuanyi to come back."

Chu Wuji's tone was firm, without any hint of joking.

The beautiful and charming national teacher, knowing that it would be rude to remain silent, said with surprise:

"I'm so grateful... I never thought that the person who accompanied Fu Guanyin to 'denounce' me would now take the initiative to worry about my future troubles. I wonder what Fu Guanyin would think when she saw this~"

This is a bit too much, it makes it seem like Fu Guanyin has been poached...

Chu Wuji smiled subtly and prepared to leave. Everything had been explained anyway.

"Please stay for a moment." The Queen of Jingjue tried to persuade Chu Wuzhi to stay.

"What's the matter?" Chu Wuzhi wondered, trying to catch the Queen of Jingjue's emotions from her eyes, but unfortunately he couldn't see her line of sight.

"To win over, to get close."

The Queen of Jingjue walked in front of Chu Wuji, squatted down, and gently blew out a breeze of Yin energy. The breath fell on his meridians like a caress, and the meridians that had been dormant all the time immediately moved.

Through the clothes, it almost touched the face of the Queen of Jingjue.

"As expected, Master Chu's innate physique is truly remarkable, with an astonishing amount of Yang energy. I simply exhaled, and your Qi and blood immediately gathered here, carrying the Yang energy, to fight against my Yin energy. It's truly ferocious~"

"Queen of Jingjue, what do you mean?" Chu Wuzhi frowned and pressed a finger against her forehead, preventing the Queen of Jingjue from getting any closer.

He could see what this meant, but this was their first meeting, so he didn't show that kind of intention, right?

The Queen of Jingjue has a very beautiful face and can be regarded as one of the top beauties in the Western Regions. However, her current appearance is a bit "weird" and Chu Wuji can't accept it.

"Mr. Chu's offer is too generous. I feel uneasy, so I have to show my goodwill in the limited opportunity we have to meet."

The Queen of Jingjue knew that her behavior was a bit abrupt, but she had to do it.

Chu Wuji just came here by chance to inquire about information, but the background he showed was too amazing. Three big monsters with dragon energy were protecting him, and a mysterious fox girl who could control Yu Yang's soul had just given him the ancient inheritance.

The conditions he proposed were not conditions at all.

The Queen of Jingjue didn't know his origins, but she had to get as close to this handsome young man as possible.

He set off at dawn without any hesitation.

Moreover, she just took a quick look at the inheritance, which mentioned "yang" and "yin", and that they needed to assist each other in practice.

It seems that Yin and Yang are incompatible, but when Yin Qi is cultivated to a certain level, if there is no strong True Yang to stimulate it, it will be difficult for Yin Qi to continue to improve and it will stagnate.

"This is also the key to cultivation recorded in that inheritance: 'Solitary yin cannot produce life, solitary yang cannot grow.' It's been many years since someone with such a strong innate yang energy as Master Chu has been seen. The sooner you cultivate that ancient inheritance, the better I can play the role of an ally!"

When the White Peacock heard what the Queen of Jingjue said, she felt very embarrassed, caught in a dilemma and was stuck here.

She could see the Queen's intentions. Cultivation might be one thing, but the key was to establish a karmic connection with Chu Wuji. Chu Wuji could easily give her a precious ancient inheritance, and perhaps even greater benefits would be bestowed upon her in the future.

Without any knowledge of Chu Wuji, the Queen of Jingjue could only take advantage of the need for cultivation to exchange her body for Chu Wuji's friendship.

But...what should White Peacock do? Can't she wait until she leaves before the Queen of Jingjue does this?

The Queen of Jingjue received the benefit and immediately expressed her gratitude with her body.

She, the White Peacock, received benefits from her allies, and just said thank you and that was it. How could this be justified?

What I fear most is this kind of contrast. Even White Peacock suspects that the Queen of Jingjue did it on purpose...

The beautiful imperial teacher's delicate body was slightly stiff, and she sighed in her heart. She looked at her friend's son again, and Chu Wuzhi's extraordinary performance along the way emerged in her mind. Bai Kongque's expression became a little better.

He is handsome and strong, with outstanding abilities. From a woman's perspective, it is not difficult to accept him - as long as you ignore the fact that he is the son of a good friend and the Taoist partner of the younger generation Fu Guanyin.

"Mr. Chu, please don't tell your mother Xuanyi about this. I can't explain it..."

Chapter 458 Peach Stalemate

The magic little fox was right next to them. He had just taken back You Yuyang and was about to return to the Sky Fox Queen when he encountered this incident.

The Sky Fox Queen soon learned of the commotion. Seeing that Madam Jiang had also rested, she briefly left her body and quietly went to the study without being discovered by the snake demon and the others.

If White Snake, Green Snake and the others knew about this, they would definitely follow!

Last time at the bathhouse in the royal capital, the plan was interrupted by Xuan Yi's surprise attack, and the Sky Fox Queen didn't even get to experience the joy. Although she enjoyed watching the show at that time, it was still a little flaw. Now she had to take the opportunity to make up for it.

The jade feet of the Fox Goddess tapped lightly in the corridor, creating ripples, and she soon rushed to the study.

She looked around the room, wondering whose body to choose, and then she got into the body of the Queen of Jingjue.

Chu Wuji had mentioned before that he wanted to try to practice the inheritance of the You Yu clan. He had no shortage of people to accompany him in practice, as he had a lot of high-quality "yin" around him. But now that the Queen of Jingjue had made such a request, he might as well give it a try first.

In the past, when the Sky Fox Goddess entered a woman's body, she would not hide her aura and would deliberately let them know. This was a sign of respect for her acquaintances.

This time, she concealed her breath out of playfulness. The Queen of Jingjue only vaguely sensed something strange, but after careful perception, she didn't find anything and didn't take it seriously.
