Chapter 158: Rewards and punishments are clear
When the last trace of Sima Gongru's soul was also swallowed by Chu Jiang, the terrible screams finally stopped, Zhong Li's soul phantom and Talaski's soul phantom condensed a lot, no longer so ethereal, at this time, many people recognized that the phantom in mid-air was the Aoki Ghost King, and they were even more shocked by Ling Han's mysterious identity, this person actually imprisoned the two ghost kings, it was really unfathomable.
Ling Han had said before setting off to Xiaoyao City that he would let the Golden Retriever Lion King suffer a little grievance, and it was to let him act as Ling Han's follower and thug, with Ling Han's cultivation, he couldn't control the scene, and he couldn't get on the stage, so he had to rely on the Golden Retriever Lion King, but after all, the protagonist was still Ling Han, so the Golden Retriever Lion King was only responsible for doing it, not saying a word, and obeying Ling Han's orders, such a request was really not mentioned by anyone except Ling Han, but Ling Han had a great friendship with the Golden Retriever Lion King, and the most important thing was that the Golden Retriever Lion King was able to get out of trouble. Being able to break through has a lot of credit to Ling Han, and he is also very grateful to Ling Han, so when Ling Han made this request, he agreed without hesitation, and he played it even more dutifully, so that this monk had an indescribable sense of mystery and awe for Ling Han, which was a necessary temperament for a leader.
After making sure that Sima Gongru had been cut off from life, Ling Han gently waved his hand and put Chu Jiang and the other three into the Qiankun Ring, and then with a flick of his fingers, a wisp of flame of condensed vitality floated to Sima Gongru's body, and after a while, the raging fire burned violently, and the pungent smell diffused, filling the entire hall, and soon only a small pile of ashes remained.
A demon cultivator in the late stage of the Yuan Shen Dynasty, the second master of Xiaoyao City, one of the ten major cities in the Demon Realm, turned into ashes without any resistance, Ling Han's cold gaze swept around, and almost all the monks' hearts were raised to their throats, only the four monks were angry, although they were afraid in their hearts, but because of the intention of death, they were not so panicked.
Ling Han laughed very strangely, slowly raised his right hand, and pointed to the group of neutral monks outside the hall, the Golden Retriever Lion King took two steps forward, without saying a word, just nodded slightly, and then waved his hand, and there were eight golden rays of light shooting towards the group of monks, they didn't even have time to scream, they completely turned into ashes, and at the same time, the almost transparent soul pinched into Ling Han's hand, and was thrown into the Qiankun Ring by him very casually.
This hand was completely beyond everyone's expectations, according to common sense, the first to suffer should be the four monks who followed Sima Gongru, how could it not fall on their group of neutral monks, and Ling Han didn't say a word, he wiped out half of them, including both the hall master and the elders, completely irregular, what does this mean? No one can eat it through, and the remaining seven people are so frightened that they fall to the ground and beg for mercy loudly.
Originally, although they were a little afraid, they didn't have too much to worry about, this was exactly the same as their previous consideration, if Ling Han wanted to kill them, there would be no need to go to such great lengths to shock people's hearts, Ling Han tortured Sima Gongru, and finally killed him, although this series of actions made them afraid, but there was still a trace of luck in their hearts, if Ling Han wanted to maintain the strength of Xiaoyao City, it would be impossible to kill them, wouldn't it be just to change the city lord? But Ling Han wiped out more than half of them as soon as he made a move, this was obviously playing cat and mouse, enjoying the fun of the game, where did they dare to maintain any neutrality.
"Okay, all seven of you stand up, do you know why you survived, and the people who were standing next to you just now have turned to ashes, who can answer me?" Ling Han still had a mysterious smile, and his strange eyes swept over them one by one, and all the monks involuntarily lowered their heads.
"Hmm、、?" Ling Han snorted a little impatiently, the seven of them were so frightened that they fell to their knees again, and one of the powerhouses in the middle stage of the primordial god had the courage to say loudly: "The Holy Lord is far-sighted, his subordinates really don't know, please spare our lives, we are all disciples of the Holy Sect, and we have never betrayed the Holy Sect so far!"
"Since you don't know, then I'll tell you, because you're lucky. Ling Han said lightly.
Everyone looked at each other, obviously unable to understand Ling Han's explanation, Ling Han continued: " In the Xiuzhen world, the strong are respected, the original city lord Chu Jiang was hit hard, and the deputy city lord Sima Gong had the heart to rebel, but the strength of the two sides was equal, you chose to watch the fire from the other side and take advantage of the situation, this is not wrong, it is true that in order to preserve the strength of Xiaoyao City, I can't kill all of you, but I will destroy half of you, and it is completely random, why you can survive, there is no other reason, it is because your luck is better than the luck of the person who just stood beside you, but next time, whether you still have such good luck, it is not easy to say。
You must have thought that after Sima Gongru was destroyed, it was these four monks who bore the brunt, but you were wrong, they stood firm, and like Elder Yang, they were respectable monks, and for such monks were all the strong people in the Cloud Desolate Continent were very appreciative, so I would not hurt them, but would reuse them, what I want to tell you is that there is nothing wrong with following the trend, but once you make a choice, you must go on unswervingly, this is the determination and courage that a strong person should have, if you delay making a choice, then your fate is not in your own hands, but in the hands of GodCan you guarantee that there will be such good luck next time?"
The seven people who were prostrate on the ground were like a slap in the face, and they all fell into deep thought, Ling Han gave them a buffer time, and finally they raised their heads one after another, and said firmly: "My subordinates are willing to follow the Holy Lord and go to the soup and fight the fire again!"
Ling Han motioned for them to stand up, and then said sharply: "Since you are lucky today, I won't say much, if you choose to follow me, just think about what I said, it will also be of great benefit to your cultivation, if you have two hearts, this seat will not show mercy." ”
"The subordinates obeyed. The seven of them said in unison, and then stood aside, silently thinking about what Ling Han said.
Ling Han returned to the wide chair and sat down, and said loudly: "From now on, this seat will personally take over Xiaoyao City, and Chu Jiang, the king of Xiaoyao, as the guardian ghost king, actually has the heart of rebellion, which is a capital crime, but now is the time to employ people, temporarily keep his primordial spirit, in order to see the after-effects." Yang Ye, the elder of the city guard, is loyal to the lord, chivalrous and courageous, and is very pleased, and from now on, he will be promoted to the position of the deputy city lord of Xiaoyao City, handling the daily affairs of the city, and the law enforcement hall master Zhao Liang is upright and fair, and promoted to the deputy city lord of Xiaoyao City, assisting Yang City Lord in handling daily affairs, and also serving as the law enforcement hall master, rewarding the good and punishing the evil must not be wrong;
You and the other four are loyal to the lord, do not see the wind to make the rudder, but also a person of affection and righteousness, this seat is very appreciative, the middle of the Yuan Shen monks remain as the masters of the branches of Xiaoyao City, and the early Yuan Shen monks remain as the elders of the city;
There are also seven of you, the city lord was hit hard and did not think of rescue, but watched the fire from the other side, and took the profits of the fisherman in vain, although the death penalty was exempted, but the responsibility for the crime could not be escaped, and the position of the hall master and elder was cut off from now on, and he was responsible for the protection of the city wall, without the slightest delay, otherwise he would not be severely punished.
Okay, do you have any opinion on my arrangement?"
"Your subordinates obey the Holy Commandment. The monks in the main hall knelt on the ground and said in unison, Yang Ye and Zhao Liang were blessed by misfortune, and were appreciated and reused by Ling Han, they could only sigh that the world was changeable, and their heart to follow Chu Jiang was even more firm, and now that Chu Jiang had followed Ling Han, they were even more incomparably reverent and grateful to Ling Han, and sighed. There are also the four monks who followed Sima Gongru who originally reported their mortal intentions, but they didn't expect that Ling Han would not blame the past and keep his responsibilities for reuse, which greatly surprised them, and they respected Ling Han even more, and now that Sima Gongru is dead, they naturally follow Ling Han regardless of their previous suspicions, and their hearts are full of gratitude. As for the remaining seven monks, it is already the favor of God to be able to save a small life, and when they meet Ling Han, the demon king who does not play cards according to common sense, they are afraid and frightened, just waiting for their duties in the city guard post to do their duty and gain Ling Han's appreciation, otherwise the knife hanging over their heads may fall at any time, where do they dare to have any other thoughts, so at this moment, the remaining monks above the main hall are full of fear and reverence for Ling Han, and there is no longer the slightest second heart.
Ling Han has a complex and tortuous experience, and there are so many legendary experiences, his mind is far from being comparable to that of ordinary monks, at this moment he already knows that his goal has been achieved, and the Upper Xiaoyao City is already a monolith at this moment, completely in his hands, he waved his hand to let everyone stand up, and then said extremely kindly:" Elder Yang will step up his cultivation in the future, I see that you are now at the peak of the early stage of the Yuan Shen, and strive to break through to the middle stage of the Yuan Shen as soon as possible, otherwise you, the position of the city lord, I am afraid that you will not be able to sit steadily, I have some pills and spirit herbs here, you can take them first, and the city lord of Zhao has also stepped up his cultivation, as long as you can break through to the late stage of the Yuan Shen Dynasty, I will supply you with this spirit herb pill, and you will concentrate on cultivation. After speaking, he waved his hand and took out a large number of pills and spiritual herbs from the Qiankun Ring and distributed them to Yang Ye and Zhao Liang.
These elixirs are all the best elixirs that have been improved by Zhong Liyi and Zi Ling'er, almost on par with the best elixirs stored in Taiyi Gate, these spiritual herbs are brought out from the Valley of Despair, and the medicinal age is at least more than a thousand years, as soon as these things come out, the pure and rich aura of heaven and earth, and the refreshing fragrance of the elixir make the entire hall bathe in a fresh and natural aura, all the monks widened their eyes, in the demon world where resources are exhausted, these treasures are not available to them even if they fight for their lives, if such a huge fortune appears outside the city, they will rob it at all costs, and at this moment, Ling Han actually rewarded his subordinates casually, such a generous gesture makes everyone's eyes burn with this incomparably envious flame of hope.
Yang Ye and Zhao Liang were like falling into a dream, carefully putting away these pills and spirit grasses, and there were faint tears flashing in their eyes, in fact, their cultivation had already reached the bottleneck, and these pills that hit the bottleneck made them dream of resources, and they were about to kneel down again to thank them at this moment, Ling Han supported them, and said gently: "This seat has always been a clear reward and punishment, as long as you do things with all your heart, it will naturally not treat you badly, and you all remember, as long as you follow me loyally, you will definitely be able to embark on the holy path of the supreme bright road in the future!"
Chapter 159: The Ghost Valley Medical God
In the most magnificent city lord hall in Xiaoyao City, Yang Ye and Zhao Liang never dreamed that there would be such a situation, Ling Han became supreme again in everyone's minds, this is what Ling Han wants to achieve, of course, in the Qiankun Ring, Xiaohong would have already jumped like thunder, if it weren't for Zi Ling'er's desperate appeasement, I'm afraid it would have jumped out and played with Ling Han.
"Okay, that's the end of today's business, you all retreat, from tomorrow onwards, the whole city of Xiaoyao City will be under martial law, only allowed to enter and not leave, cut off all communication with the other nine cities, and say to the outside world that the city lord is in retreat and cultivation, and he is breaking through the critical juncture, so he can't be disturbed in any way. Ling Han said.
Everyone cautiously withdrew from the main hall, a gust of night wind blew, and the whole body was cold, but in just a few hours, he was hovering on the edge of life and death several times, such a rare experience, if they knew how to understand it carefully, they would have a great gain, but at the moment they didn't have time to think about it, they finally saved their lives, and first went back to their own practice mansion to come back to their senses, only the newly appointed deputy city lords Yang Ye and Zhao Liang stayed.
Ling Han asked a little strangely, "What else is the matter with the two of you?"
Yang Ye took a step forward, leaned over and said, "There are still some doubts in the hearts of subordinates, I don't know whether to ask or not?"
"I know that you have a lot of doubts about the identity of this seat, but this is not the time yet, you don't need to know, just call me the city lord for the time being, conscientiously complete the task I have assigned, and when the right time comes, it will naturally sweep away the doubts in your hearts. Ling Han knew that they had too many questions about their identity as a Holy Lord, but now he was not prepared to make all this public, causing a shock in the Cloud Desolate Demon Realm.
"Please forgive your subordinates for being rude, the city lord has blocked the news and can't come out, I'm afraid it's because he wants to cover up, the competition in the demon world is fierce, the city lord of Chu was originally a cultivator in the late stage of the Yuan Shen, once there is a breakthrough, I am afraid it will affect the stability of the entire Sun Moon Holy Sect and the demon world, so once this news is released, I am afraid that several other ghost kings will be alarmed, and even the king of Yama will rush to Xiaoyao City, and at that time, Xiaoyao City may be in danger!" Zhao Liang said in thought.
Ling Han nodded slightly, with a hint of appreciation in his eyes, this Zhao Liang is fair and thoughtful, but it can be used, he smiled and said: "You think about it very reasonably, but when this news spreads all over the Demon Realm, and then they communicate with each other, and finally come together to besiege my Xiaoyao City, I am afraid it will take at least half a year, although half a year is short, but it is enough for me, you can do a good job of defense with peace of mind, and wait until the day when the soldiers press the realm, naturally this seat will come forward in person." Okay, let's go down. ”
More than half a year is not a long time for a mortal, and it is even more like a flick of a finger for a monk, sometimes a casual flirtation may take several years, and a retreat takes decades or even hundreds of years, so half a year is really short, but for Ling Han, half a year is his last chance, if he can't make a breakthrough within half a year, then all the ideas are just floating clouds, half a year of calm time is enough!
How much of a sensation will Chu Jiang's retreat cause if he breaks through the bottleneck Ling Han naturally knew that once there was a strong person in the Demon Realm who was similar to Shangguan Yundun, then the power structure of the entire Demon Realm would be turned upside down, and in order to protect himself, the other ghost kings would definitely reach a consensus and unite to deter Chu Jiang, and the Ten Kings would converge, it was the time when Ling Han unified the Sun and Moon Holy Sect, of course, Ling Han had to make a lot of preparations.
Zhao Liang's admiration for Ling Han in his heart was a little more, the city lord had a far-sighted strategy, how could they be able to understand it, it was better to be careful to complete their tasks, so the two of them walked out of the hall with a happy heart.
After making sure that everyone had gone away, Ling Han hurriedly laid down a defensive light shield to isolate all sounds, and then hurriedly stood up and said: "Lion King, the little brother is too presumptuous, it really shouldn't be, let the Lion King be wronged, the little brother should be punished!"
"Brother Ling Han is so good-minded, now which of these monks in Xiaoyao City still dares to have two hearts for you, the Holy Lord, with equal emphasis on grace and power, and clear rewards and punishments, this kind of means make my brother admire and admire, how did I act as a follower and thug, I didn't lose the face of your brother Ling Han, ah, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, The Golden Retriever Lion King laughed and said, he did not take these bearded condescension to heart, but admired Ling Han's methods of killing people, indeed the strength of the Golden Retriever Lion King was extremely strong, and he could destroy them all, or make them surrender to his feet, but this surrender was mixed with too much fear and helplessness, and Ling Han's move was to make them fearful, but also to let them see hope, only in this way could they do their best for Ling Han, these means were impossible for the Golden Retriever Lion King to think of anyway.
"Okay, good, good, if it weren't for the lion king's full cooperation, how would the little brother continue to play this play, but there will be a lot of trouble for the lion king in the future, otherwise the little brother really can't control the scene!" Ling Han said with a smile.
Just when the two were talking enthusiastically, a bright purple-red light flashed out, it was Zi Ling'er and Xiaohong, who had been waiting impatiently for a long time, Xiao Hongfu glared at Ling Han angrily as soon as he appeared, if it weren't for the grace of grilling fish, I am afraid that a purple-red flame would have struck a long time ago, the purple-red flame sprayed by Xiaohong was difficult for even the monks of the Yuan Infant Stage to bear, Ling Han was even more choked, fortunately, Xiaohong just kept whimpering to express her anger, and did not enter the real battle state.
Ling Han then remembered that he had been generous just now, but he had taken a lot of Xiaohong's treasures, and seeing Xiaohong's dissatisfied appearance at this moment, he could only reluctantly promise: "When we finish dealing with the matter here, we will definitely take Zi Ling'er all over the famous mountains and rivers to find the heavenly treasures and return them to you, if it is still not enough, let's go back to the Valley of Desperation again, and ask the Dragon God for more?"
"Okay, Xiaohong is good, don't be angry, when the son is done with his business, let's go treasure hunting together, okay?" Zi Ling'er also reassured, Xiaohong then withdrew her murderous gaze, and lazily lay in Zi Ling'er's arms, no longer looking at Ling Han.
Ling Han secretly said in his heart: "It seems that you have to prepare a few storage rings in the future, otherwise anything will become Xiaohong's personal belongings as soon as it arrives in the Qiankun Ring, and even he, the master, will not have the power to dominate, so how can you do it?
"Brother Ling Han, now that we have controlled Xiaoyao City, what are we going to do next, we can't really be the city lord here, right?"
"The top priority at the moment is to dissolve the bloody evil qi accumulated in my body, if it is not resolved in time, the little brother's time is really not much, the younger brother's longevity is too weird, and I don't know if the condensation of the golden pill can prolong the longevity, if you want to condense the yuan infant to prolong the longevity, the younger brother will be powerless to return to the sky, Chu Jiang, do you know that in the demon world, there is any magic method that can dissolve this bloody evil qi?" Ling Han's heart moved, and he summoned Chu Jiang out.
Chu Jiang and Ling Han were grasshoppers on the same rope now, so naturally he didn't dare to hide it in the slightest, he muttered: " The most feared thing for the demon monks is the demon backlash, once this evil qi is accumulated, it is extremely difficult to remove, so among the demon realm mental methods, only the Shangguan Sect Master's Dementor and Ghost Suppression Dafa can weaken this influence to the greatest extent, but despite this, the Shangguan Sect Master mainly devours the power of the soul, not the Yuan Shen and the life essence, plus his own Yuan Shen is extremely strong, in order to suppress the interference of the hundreds of millions of resentful spirits and maintain the sobriety of the sanity, but the bloody evil qi in the Holy Body is extremely complex and stubborn, as far as his subordinates know, there is probably no mental method in this demon world that can surpass the Dafa of the Dementor and the Ghost, the Holy Lord already has this set of mental methods or cannot be resolved, and his subordinates are powerlessunless, unless、、、"
"Unless anything, are you testing my patience by spitting like this?" Ling Han frowned deeply, and said with some impatience.
Chu Jiang hurriedly bowed down, "The subordinates don't dare, the subordinates mean that there is a divine doctor in the demon world, known as the god of ghost valley medicine, not only the cultivation is superb, but the medical skills are unparalleled in the world, maybe he can have a solution, but he has always been a ghost, and the place where he lives is not known, and some people are rumored that he lives in the Nine Ghost Domains, and the name of this ghost valley also comes from this, I am afraid it is not so easy to find him, if the Holy Lord is delayed, the subordinates really can't afford to bear the sin, so they are a little hesitant." ”
"The god of medicine, the god of healers, it is also evident that he is extraordinary to be worthy of this name, and now in this case, he can only be regarded as a dead horse doctor. Ling Han fell into deep thought and muttered.
