The Protagonist Is in the Right Position to Get Along With the Villain
Chapter 39
Li Jinzhi thought for a while, then grabbed an old man in his twilight years and asked him about the Hu family's location.
The old man pondered for a long time before slowly saying, "Is it the Hu family, the Li family's in-laws from sixty years ago?"
Li Jinzhi nodded. "Yes, it's the Hu family."
"The Li family was massacred by demons, and the Hu family began to covet the Li family's territory in Ji Domain City. Later, they were suppressed by the Li brothers, and now they're in decline." The old man seemed to be deep in thought. "At that time, I also didn't expect that I would marry their young miss. Cough, cough …"
"Then …" Li Jinzhi was about to ask when he saw a small crack open in the side courtyard. A thin and shriveled old woman came out. She turned around and saw the old man. She cursed in a shrill voice, "Bastard, I told you to buy rouge. What are you doing here?"
The old woman rushed over with her hands on her hips. Ye Cheng pulled Li Jinzhi to the side to avoid the old woman.
Li Jinzhi was a little stunned. The old woman in front of him was shriveled, and her face was full of wrinkles. Her cheeks were covered with thick rouge, but it still couldn't cover the four dark red scars on the right side of her face.
Thinking about what the old man said just now, Li Jinzhi was bewildered. He heard the old man say again, "Sisi, you're already seventy-six years old. Why are you still buying rouge at this age?"
This time, even Ye Cheng was stunned. Sisi?
Which Sisi?
Hu Sisi?
Ye Cheng and Li Jinzhi looked at each other, then stared indifferently at the old woman in front of them.
But no matter how they looked, this stooped woman didn't have a shadow of the past.
Hearing the old man's words, the old woman completely exploded. She hysterically shouted about her bumpy fate, without any care for her image.
Ye Cheng suddenly felt a little happy, even happier than when he slaughtered the whole family. He could almost imagine how a woman who valued her appearance felt when she was destroyed by time for decades.
Her bright and clean skin was no longer tight, and her beautiful face became wasted …
Ye Cheng's lips curled up as he looked at this unreasonable woman who had no image at all. The hatred from before and the resentment from being thrown into the ice lake all turned into a strong sense of pleasure.
"So, revenge isn't as simple as killing them."
Li Jinzhi's voice was cold as he slowly knocked on Ye Cheng's consciousness. "Only by taking away the most important thing and letting him become a walking corpse in the world."
Ye Cheng nodded thoughtfully and said solemnly, "I understand." That's why I can't let anyone take you away from me. Don't even think about leaving me behind and leaving by yourself.
The farce continued. The old woman cried as she scolded. She sat on the ground without caring about her image and scolded some people. Li Jinzhi lost interest after hearing a few words.
The reason he brought Ye Cheng here was to make Ye Cheng understand that hating someone and killing them was the most brainless form of revenge.
When he heard that the other party had destroyed the entire family, he was so angry that he wanted to laugh. It was really simple and crude.
"Are we going to find that Moksha next?" Li Jinzhi tilted his head and asked.
"En." Ye Cheng turned his head. "Where are we going to find him?"
"Why do you want us to find him?
Li Jinzhi smiled mysteriously and led Ye Cheng to the market square.
A few days later, a piece of news came out from the market square of the Polar Domain City. It was said that two masked cultivators sold a Buddhist secret treasure in the Heavenly Bone Pavilion. After appraisal, this secret treasure could suppress all ghosts and extremely yin things in the world. It was very powerful.
The Heavenly Bone Pavilion released the news that an auction would be held in a few days, but the purpose was unknown.
On the day of the auction, two cultivators and an old man competed for the price. In the end, the two mysterious cloaked cultivators won the Buddhist secret treasure at the price of 20,000 low-grade spirit stones.
The cultivators who won the item turned around and left. Everyone saw that the two people were followed by an old man in black.
The ones who sold and bought this magic tool were naturally Li Jinzhi and Ye Cheng. At this time, they were flying forward in an escape light, followed by a cloud of dark blood mist.
The two people in the escape light looked relaxed, without any sense of crisis of being chased.
Ye Cheng glanced behind him and turned to look at Li Jinzhi with a trace of confusion in his eyes. "Why are you so sure that he will follow?
Or why are you so sure that he will come to buy this magic tool? "
"Earlier, Xie Huan said that that person's ghost streamer is invincible, and it almost runs rampant in the entire Northern Region. If a secret treasure that can suppress the most yin ghosts in the world appears, who should be the most anxious?" Li Jinzhi tilted his head and asked.
"So that's the case, then why are you so sure that he will buy it?" Ye Cheng suddenly understood. Although he was asking, he had a faint answer in his heart.
"If the magic tool that controls your life and death falls into someone else's hands, what will you do?" Li Jinzhi asked.
"Take it back." Ye Cheng said the answer in his heart. "It's impossible for something that controls your life to fall into someone else's hands."
"So, if you want to find a person, the stupidest way is to find a needle in a haystack. The best way is to use the thing that the other party cares about the most to force the other party to come out and walk into the trap that you weave yourself." Li Jinzhi said slowly.
Ye Cheng nodded. At this time, Li Jinzhi was more like his teacher, patiently teaching him some principles of dealing with people. His serious eyes made him unable to look away.
The black blood cloud behind them pressed forward, and a gloomy old man's voice came from the cloud. "You two deliberately raised the price, but now you're running away happily. But don't worry, even if you go to the ends of the earth, this old man will chase after you!"
Li Jinzhi and Ye Cheng's escape light suddenly stopped. They lifted the hood of their cloaks, and the black cloud also came to a sudden stop. The black cloud dissipated, revealing the figure of an old man.
"Hehe, why aren't you running?
It's you! "
The old man's turbid eyes suddenly lit up, and then he was wild with joy. "You actually came here to ask me to refine pills, and you've even entered the Foundation Establishment stage?
Just nice, just nice, there's still one ingredient that hasn't been put in place for the Return to Childhood Pill. Let's … "
Before the old man finished speaking, Li Jinzhi suddenly swung his hand, and a blue electric arc shot out from the palm of his hand, rushing towards the old man's face.
Thunder and lightning came from the heavenly thunder, and the old man sent out a square seal in shock and anger. The seal expanded violently against the wind, and finally met the shocking electric arc in mid-air.
"Bang!" There was an earth-shattering sound.
The electric arc suddenly wrapped around the seal, and the power of thunder and lightning scattered and intertwined.
The old man was shocked and angry. "Good, good, good. I let you escape last time. Let's see how you can survive this time."
As soon as he finished speaking, he saw that the aura around Ye Cheng and Li Jinzhi's bodies increased dramatically. The Golden Elixir early-stage, the Golden Elixir mid-stage, and the Golden Elixir late-stage. The old man's expression became worse and worse. When he saw that their auras had stopped at the early-stage of Yuanying, his expression was as gloomy as water.
Although his expression was gloomy, he still had a brain. He dared to follow them when there were two of them because they were only at the Foundation Establishment stage. If they were at the Yuanying stage, it was hard to say whether he would still fight them head-on.
He did not observe the two of them in his anger just now, but when he took a closer look, he realized that their voices and appearances were completely different from sixty years ago.
They actually had a great opportunity to break through to the Yuanying stage in just sixty years. Their talent was really enviable!
When he thought about how he could not find the two of them earlier, the old man easily associated it with the bottom of the mystic realm lake.
The old man's eyes turned red with hatred. His thoughts turned quickly, and he remembered that the two masked cultivators who had sold the Buddhist secret treasure earlier were the two masked cultivators. At this time, the two of them had hidden their cultivation and led him here on purpose.
When the old man figured out the pros and cons, he was naturally furious. However, he sneered and turned around to fly back the way he had come.
If there were two Yuanying cultivators, it would be fine, but the old man did not forget about the Buddhist secret treasure in their hands.
When one's cultivation method was restrained, one would be restrained and at a disadvantage. At his age, no matter how impulsive he was, he would not act rashly.
However, Li Jinzhi and Ye Cheng did not lead him here to chat with him.
Ye Cheng made a seal with one hand, and a layer of dark red film appeared in mid-air. In a flash, it appeared in front of the old man.
The old man was blocked, so he was naturally furious. He was not in a hurry to run away, and he raised a small pitch-black banner with one hand.
This small banner was obviously not the one he had seen before. The power of the Yin spirit in it was stronger, and the blood Qi was denser.
As it rose in the wind, a cold wind blew, and the sky changed color. The sound of ghosts wailing and wolves howling could be heard endlessly. The area within a hundred miles was like a ghost town in the human world.
Li Jinzhi knew that this banner was refined with the souls of cultivators. It was naturally very different from the banners refined with the souls of mortals.
This banner had imprisoned the souls of countless cultivators. This person deserved to die!
The malicious spirits in the cold wind rushed toward the two of them ferociously. The aura of destruction spread in all directions, but Li Jinzhi did not panic at all. He opened his mouth and spat out an ice-white lotus flower.
The small lotus flower was blown back and forth by the cold wind. The ice-white spirit flame bounced and shot in all directions, as if it would shatter and disappear into nothingness at any time.
When the old man saw the lotus flower, a look of disdain flashed across his eyes.
He sneered and launched an attack with the banner. The Yin Ghost King was refined with the soul of a Golden Elixir cultivator, so its lethality was naturally very different!
If he could kill this Yuanying, then his soul banner could use the Yuanying as the main soul, and its lethality would increase by another level!
The old man's determined gaze fell on Li Jinzhi. His eyes flashed with a fierce light, and he changed the spell in his mouth. The petite silver lotus suddenly expanded out of thin air, spinning and turning into a huge one.
The disdain in the old man's eyes became even stronger. His ghost banner was one of the few divine tools in the world that could kill demons. There were very few things that could compete with it.
He even had a way to deal with the Buddhist secret treasure from before.
However, before the disdain in his eyes dissipated, the situation in the field suddenly changed.
A ghost head pounced on the silver lotus, and it opened its mouth as if it was going to devour it completely.
However, in just the blink of an eye, the ferocious ghost head dissipated into thin air and disappeared without a trace!
The old man's eyes were full of shock and faintly visible panic. Then, he opened his mouth and spat out a mouthful of blood essence. The blood essence sank into the banner and disappeared without a trace. In the middle of the banner, a ferocious ghost head with terrifying pressure poked its head out.
