Chapter 122 - 122: Congratulatory Gift, Ghost Pearl



While the three of them were observing the residence, Zhuang Yangbing suddenly asked, “Friends, how should I address you?”

Faced with Zhuang Yangbing’s question, Lu Yuan replied without thinking, “Qingyun Sect’s Foundation Establishment disciple, Chen Yan.”

When Meng Ruyan heard this, she immediately said, “I’m Meng Ruyan, a Foundation Establishment disciple of the Qingyun Sect.”

After answering Zhuang Yangbing’s question, Lu Yuan asked, “May I ask who you are?”

“Foundation Establishment disciple of the Xueyang Sect, Li Yueru,” Zhuang Yangbing said without hesitation.

The three of them fell silent again.

Zhuang Yangbing complained internally as he observed the situation in the mansion.

“He is definitely not the Qingyun Sect’s Chen Yan! He probably said the name of another disciple from the sect.”

“When his senior sister heard him call himself Chen Yan, her eyes clearly changed. What a cunning old fox he is!”

Lu Yuan’s thoughts were similar to Zhuang Yangbing’s.

“Why is he pretending to be Li Yueru? I’ve already turned Li Yueru into ashes.”

“If he really is Li Yueru, then who did I kill back then? Was it a ghost?”

“But it’s fine even if he doesn’t tell me his real name. I will find out for myself!”

Zhuang Yangbing would never have thought that the person beside him had a cheat in addition to his steadiness.

Name: Zhuang Yangbing

[Cultivation: Foundation Establishment Stage Level 9]

[Spiritual roots: Water spiritual root (Heaven), Yin spiritual root (Heaven)]

[Cultivation technique: Blood Soul Spell]

[Luck value: 1000/1800]

Good heavens, he was actually also a person with great luck!

After seeing Zhuang Yangbing’s interface, Lu Yuan was a little surprised.

This was because the person in front of him was actually the second luckiest person he had ever met.

It was only 200 points lower than that of the demoness Meng Ruyan beside him.

Since when did the tiny Xueyang Sect have a hidden talent like him?

Unbeknownst to Zhuang Yangbing, Lu Yuan saw through his identity with a glance.

Moreover, Zhuang Yangbing’s greatest mistake was to pretend to be Li Yueru, the person whom Lu Yuan had personally crushed.

However, although Lu Yuan already knew Zhuang Yangbing’s true background, he definitely wouldn’t expose him on the spot.

After all, they still had a common problem, which was how to get through the Gates of Hell.

Lu Yuan and Zhuang Yangbing quickly noticed a detail at the entrance of the official residence.

Everyone who entered the residence would first pass a black bead to the Paper Man in the butler’s uniform at the front door.

Lu Yuan directly used the system to read the information of this bead.

[Ghost Pearl – Preta Path]

[Description: A pearl condensed from a 100-year-old hungry ghost. It contains a large amount of pure ghost qi.]

So, this bead was a Ghost Pearl.

After seeing this thing, Lu Yuan roughly understood what he had to do to enter the King of Hell’s official residence.

He most likely needed to present this Ghost Pearl as a congratulatory gift.

Previously, Lu Yuan had rummaged through the house to see if there was anything suitable to be used as a congratulatory gift.

Unfortunately, he did not find anything worthy of a gift in the end.

Thankfully, at the last moment, he still found something useful inside.

It was a bag filled with copper coins.

There weren’t many copper coins in the bag, only five at most.

Earlier, on their way here, Lu Yuan had bribed the Paper Servant with a copper coin.

From the latter, he learned that the King of Hell did not like outsiders.

Although Lu Yuan didn’t know the significance of this piece of information, he felt that the Paper Servant wouldn’t simply speak without thinking.

There was definitely a hidden meaning in these words.

At this moment, at the entrance of the official residence, a cultivator finally could not wait any longer and directly walked up to the front door.

As expected, this person was rejected by the Paper Man butler.

The cultivator seemed to make a decision after some distress.

He actually took off a piece of hair and handed it to the Paper Man butler.

Then, the latter handed him a note.

Seeing that they would not encounter any danger after entering the official residence, many cultivators also took action.

The cultivators who could reach here were obviously not stupid.

Although they had their own plans, they also knew that the sooner they passed through the Gates of Hell, the sooner they could enter the real Full Moon Mountain Range.

When they reached that place, there were countless celestial herbs and magic items waiting for them.

As a result, many cultivators who were originally waiting at the entrance of the official residence finally chose to walk in.

Most of them, without exception, used a lock of their hair to exchange for a piece of paper from the Paper Man butler.

Two cultivators took out something and were invited in by the Paper Man butler.

After observing for a while, the three of them tacitly retracted their heads.

Zhuang Yangbing looked at Lu Yuan and asked, “Friend, did you notice anything?”

Lu Yuan was not in a hurry to answer. Instead, he probed, “It seems that you have found something.”

It was a simple exchange, but Meng Ruyan felt like they were having an invisible confrontation.

“Friend, it seems like you’ve found something as well,” Zhuang Yangbing said with a fake smile.

Lu Yuan also revealed a fake smile and said, “We are on the same page.”

For a moment, there was a strange silence.

Zhuang Yangbing finally spoke.

“Then I’ll tell you what I know first. I don’t know what those cultivators got from the Paper Man butler. But I know that when they give the butler their hair, they are actually giving up part of their lifespan.”

“In other words, if we want to exchange information from that Paper Man butler, we need to offer up our precious lifespan in exchange.”

So, the cultivators used their lifespans to exchange for information.

Lu Yuan had also vaguely noticed this.

“Friend, it’s your turn to tell me what you know.”

Lu Yuan looked at Zhuang Yangbing and thought for a moment before saying, “I just know a bit more than you do. I noticed that the Paper Men that could enter the official residence had something called a Ghost Pearl. It is actually the core of a ghost.”

Zhuang Yangbing’s eyes lit up.

Almost at the same time, the two of them said in unison, “Let us work together!”

From their sincere gazes and passionate expressions, if Meng Ruyan didn’t know that this was the first time they were meeting, she would probably think that these two were long-lost brothers.

Although she didn’t know why the two of them wanted to cooperate after a simple exchange, she knew that she could not go wrong listening to Junior Brother Lu.

The previous invitation incident proved that, in the Gates of Hell, as long as she followed Junior Brother Lu, there was an 80% chance that she would not encounter any danger.

Since Lu Yuan was willing to cooperate with Zhuang Yangbing, it meant that he believed that cooperating with this person would greatly assure their safety.

As for why Lu Yuan was so sure that Zhuang Yangbing had such ability, she did not know.

Actually, Lu Yuan’s reason for cooperating with Zhuang Yangbing was very simple.

Firstly, there was a 90% chance that they would have to go through a battle to obtain the Ghost Pearl.

Judging from the strength of the Gates to Hell, the ghosts they would need to fight most likely would not be weak at all.

Although he was very confident in his own strength, there’s no harm in getting more help.

Lu Yuan felt that if he were to temporarily cooperate with Zhuang Yangbing, the benefits would definitely outweigh the disadvantages.

The other reason he wanted to work with Zhuang Yangbing was naturally because of the latter’s luck.

If he followed a person with such high luck, he would definitely not return empty-handed!

This was also one of the reasons why Lu Yuan wanted to keep Meng Ruyan by his side.

After Lu Yuan and Zhuang Yangbing agreed to cooperate, they quickly reached an agreement and walked into the King of Hell’s residence.

“Have you prepared any congratulatory gifts for the King of Hell?”

Lu Yuan and Zhuang Yangbing looked at each other and shook their heads.

When the Paper Man butler saw this, he said directly, “It doesn’t matter if you didn’t prepare a congratulatory gift. As long as you take out something that satisfies me, I can tell you where to get something that can be used as a congratulatory gift.”

As soon as he finished speaking, the Paper Man butler immediately laughed.

However, that emotionless smile was extremely terrifying.
