Chapter 7 Meeting with Sizhou
Song Ying'er asked: "In the underworld, it is to expand its influence, so it will be much trouble in the cultivation world. After all, Your Highness is in two opposing sects, and strengthening any sect's power. What if they have a conflict, wouldn't it hurt their vitality?"
Xiao Xue also cared about: "Yes, it is necessary to strengthen the strength of the sects in the cultivation world. Only when the two sects are strong and famous, can they have stronger influence when they are reorganized into the Dou Shen Sect in the future."
Fang Ling smiled and said, "I have figured out this matter recently. Before, I was indeed afraid of conflicting between the two factions because of the development of the two factions. However, I recently thought about it and found something I had not noticed before."
The two women immediately raised their ears and listened. Fang Ling said cautiously: "Although there are many conflicts of interest between the two factions, there must be some elders yearning for peace. Now, both the Wangyue Sect and the Changfeng Sect feel threatened by the expansion of the power of the surrounding sects. Then, this invisibly creates an opportunity for the integration of the two factions. If we can allow the two sects to cooperate temporarily, so that the strength of the two sides will increase greatly without conflict, wouldn't it be great?"
Xiao Xue immediately said happily: "Fang Ling's idea is really good. If the two factions can live in peace, then after we regain the forbidden sacred mountain and the lost method in the future, the reconstruction of the Dou Shen Sect will definitely reduce a lot of resistance."
Fang Ling smiled and said, "After I finish solving the matter in the underworld, I will go back to Changfeng Sect to do this matter well."
Song Ying'er was worried, but said, "But, your identity...if it is revealed, I'm afraid that judging from the current situation, it will still be a bit inappropriate."
Fang Ling patted his little hand gently and said with a smile: "I will pay attention to this matter, but there is another problem now. If I don't plan to be an official in the prefecture, then any twin fruits will be a problem."
When the two girls heard about the twin fruits, they were even more worried. After all, this was related to Fang Ling's cultivation.
Xiao Xue thought for a while and suddenly said, "By the way, I just went out to buy medicinal materials and heard something related to the Bazhen Underworld. I don't know if it's useful."
Fang Ling hurriedly said, "Xueer, come and listen."
Xiao Xue said: "Recently, something very strange happened to the Bazhen Underworld in the Upper Realm. A large number of undead under the jurisdiction of the underworld disappeared for no reason."
"The dead soul is missing?" Fang Ling couldn't help but become curious, "If the cultivators in the cultivation world have not escaped from the six realms of reincarnation, once they die, if there is a soul, they will fall into the upper realm of the underworld, be under jurisdiction, or be thrown into the reincarnation, or stay in the earth. Although these souls are quite fragile, they are the souls of the cultivators after all, and the large number of missing ones is really strange."
Song Ying'er said curiously: "Is it because people from the Ghost Realm are doing bad things secretly? Catch these souls to refine magic weapons?"
Xiao Xue replied cautiously: "It may be that there is no such thing, but the Bazhen Underworld is not on the border. Even if people in the Ghost Realm want to take action, they will not run so far. Moreover, the Bazhen Underworld has strengthened its defense and searched everywhere, but the undead will disappear a large number every day."
Fang Ling leaned back on the chair, with an inexplicable smile on his lips and said, "The soul is the foundation of the underworld. Whether it is the upper or lower world, the flow of souls and the birth of mortals must be in a balanced state. Once one side is unbalanced, it will cause chaos in the six realms. If this problem is not solved, the Lord of the Bazhen Underworld is probably not able to sit steadily."
Xiao Xue nodded and said, "Yes, it's not only the owner of Bazhen Underworld who is restless, but I heard that Sizhou is also very concerned about this matter."
Fang Ling said deeply: "If this is the case, then I will get the twin fruits."
Song Ying'er blurted out: "Does Your Highness want to take this opportunity to go to the Bazhen Underworld?"
Fang Ling smiled without answering and asked Xiao Xue: "Xue'er, what kind of person is the lord of the Bazhen Underworld of the Upper Realm?"
Xiao Xue pondered, "I heard that he is a rude old man who is good at dealing with things." After saying that, she also said a little worried, "The Bazhen Underworld and the Akacheng Sect have a close relationship. I heard that it is the origin of the lords of the past dynasties and their lords. The people of the Akacheng Sect have already had a grudge against you. If you run over like this, wouldn't you give them a chance to attack?"
Fang Ling smiled and said, "I won't go there alone. If I want to go, I have to take Sizhou's handwriting. With this thing, they can only stare at me!"
The two girls immediately understood, but were a little worried. Fang Ling hugged the two girls one on the left and right and said, "Don't worry, I went there openly, and they dared not do anything random."
"Then let's accompany you." Xiao Xue said. Since the two women experienced the capture before, the other party has become more dependent.
Fang Ling replied readily: "Okay, it's good that everyone will go together then. It's rare that Sizhou is the backstage. How can you be worthy of this opportunity if you don't go there?"
The two girls were overjoyed and knew that although Fang Ling had not seen Sizhou yet, he would definitely be sure to say that.
The next day, Fang Ling followed Murong Lu and Zhuo Xuwen to Sizhou Mansion. When he arrived in the hall, he saw a thin old man sitting on the upper seat. This man seemed to have a sad face innately, so although he was smiling, he looked like he was crying no matter how he looked.
Cui Wenhao stood aside with a cold face, still in that arrogant attitude. He didn't look at the three of them at all, and seemed to have never seen them before.
On the side of the lower seat are also several middle-aged cultivators holding boxes covered with brocade.
After the three of them met, Sizhou said kindly: "Master Murong Mansion, Master Zhuo Mansion, after I saw the documents you submitted were submitted to Lord Si. Lord Si was very happy about your extermination of Jiange City. He specially rewarded hundreds of top-grade spiritual objects, two top-grade elixirs and various spiritual elixirs to the two city lords."
After saying that, he waved his hand slightly, and the cultivators who had been waiting beside him carried the boxes and presented them one by one.
Then, Sizhou's eyes fell on Fang Ling and said with a smile: "This should be the young man in the cultivation world written in the document, right? He is indeed majestic and unique. Jiange Mountain is a disaster in my extreme southern prefecture. No one has been able to crack the souls of thousands of years. Unexpectedly, it was cracked by you, the young man. Lord Sisheng also specially prepared some top-grade magic medicines for you."
The last cultivator came up and handed the box in his hand. Fang Ling did not postpone it, so he took the box and thanked him.
Lord Sizhou said again: "The process of defeating Jiange City must be very exciting. It is better for the two lords to talk carefully to open our eyes."
Murong and Lu suddenly wanted to find it, so they started talking about it in detail, and on that day they also focused on Fang Ling's achievements.
Although the process did not add fuel to the fire, it seemed quite difficult. When Sizhou nodded from time to time, only Cui Wenhao sneered, knowing that the two were deliberately recommending Fang Ling, but with just one word of his, the efforts of the two could be wasted.
After hearing this, Sizhou smiled and said, "The eight dangerous places in the southern ghost realm are indeed well-known. It is so dangerous. No wonder the underworld's masters have no choice but to deal with them for several generations." As he said that, he turned his head to smile at Fang Ling, "Young man, you have courage and strategy, and you value love and friendship, which really makes me amazed. It's a pity that you are an outsider, otherwise I would really keep you by my side and use it well."
Cui Wenhao said on the side: "Mr. Sizhou said, although this young man has extraordinary talents, he is a person in the cultivation world after all, and he is somewhat taboo to use. Moreover, this young man is obviously a famous family, so he is afraid he doesn't take the mere land of our prefecture seriously."
Originally, in the eyes of Murong and Lu, this was an excellent time to convince, but Cui Wenhao's intentional interruption made it difficult for them to interrupt.
Fang Ling had known that Cui Wenhao would destroy the opportunity, but he had no intention of becoming an official in the prefecture, so he smiled and said, "Mr. Cui praised it. How dare I imagine being an official in the prefecture? However, I have a lot of connections with the underworld. When I was a disciple of the Immortal Sect, I was aide to the host in the Nanrong Underworld."
When Cui Wenhao heard that Fang Ling was unintentionally appointed as an official, he was a little proud. Even if this young man was so genius, he would not dare to be arrogant in front of him. He could kill his future in the underworld with just one word.
Murong and Lu were a little strange. Unexpectedly, Fang Ling really retreated, but he was thinking whether he wanted to retreat as an advance. However, both of them knew that Fang Ling was very talented and must have his own plans, so they stopped interrupting.
Sizhou said with great interest: "You have actually been an aide in the underworld in the underworld? It seems that you are really destined to be with our underworld."
Fang Ling suddenly said seriously: "Although I am a person from the cultivation world, I also regard the underworld as my home. Therefore, if there are troubles in the underworld, I will never sit idly by. Therefore, the reason why I came to pay homage to the master with the two masters was not for some reward, but because I heard that Lord Sizhou encountered a troublesome thing."
Sizhou was stunned for a moment, and suddenly said with a gaze: "Is it a young man, you want to help me solve the problem in Bazhen Underworld?"
When he heard this, the other three were also a little surprised, but he saw Fang Ling nodding and said, "The disappearance of the dead is a major event in the upper realm. It can even affect the samsara of reincarnation, so you should not be careless. I heard that the Lord of the Bazhen Underworld was so busy that he was busy with this, but he had no idea. The master wanted to condemn others to go to the Bazhen Underworld for assistance, so I wanted to help him out."
