Chapter 443: Winning People’s Hearts with Tricks

"Um...this..."

Gu Sheng looked shocked.

He didn't expect that there was such a story behind Phantom Soul Man.

Therefore, Gu Sheng, who had been murderous just now, suddenly became soft-hearted again.

"how so?"

Gu Sheng murmured to himself.

The Phantom Soul man looked at Gu Sheng, with a trace of complicated emotions flashing in his eyes.

"Young man, what is your relationship with Xiaoyaomen?"

Phantom Soul Man asked tentatively.

"I have nothing to do with Xiaoyao Sect. I just want to cross the void and rush to the Northern Territory. However, I don't want to become their tool."

Gu Sheng was silent for a while before slowly speaking his thoughts.

"I see."

The Phantom Soul Man nodded with satisfaction, admiration in his eyes.

"I understand, you are different from them."

The Phantom Soul Man said word for word.

"call……"

Gu Sheng took a deep breath and his shoulders rose slightly: "I don't want to kill you, but I have to cross the void."

"Crossing the void is a shortcut that every cultivator wants to take, but do you really think that you can realize your dream by killing me?"

The Phantom Soul Man suddenly asked with a smile.

"Um?"

Gu Sheng was stunned, he didn't know how to answer.

Because at this moment, Qingfeng's hateful face and greedy eyes suddenly appeared in Gu Sheng's mind.

If he covets his own Dragon Spirit Jade, there is nothing he can do about it.

After all, the initiative now lies in the opponent's hands.

If he goes back on his word, Gu Sheng will have no choice but to admit defeat.

It's just a pity that Long Lingyu is such a good jade pendant.

"Crossing the void requires strength and opportunity, not killing. Although your strength is good, it is not enough."

While Gu Sheng was deep in thought, the Phantom Soul man spoke slowly.

"Yes, you are right, God has the virtue of good life, and killing will only make the resentment worse."

Gu Sheng nodded.

"Yeah, I have a good understanding."

The Phantom Soul man nodded and continued to ask: "Have the people from Xiaoyao Sect asked you for the so-called 'travelling'?"

Gu Sheng froze on the spot, hesitated for a few seconds and then nodded: "Yes."

"What?"

Phantom Soul Man asked.

"A piece of jade pendant, belonging to Longling Jade."

Gu Sheng didn't hide anything and told Huanhunren.

"What? Long Lingyu? Did I hear correctly?"

The Phantom Soul man's eyes widened and he couldn't believe his ears.

"No, that's what senior brothers Qingfeng and Qingyang said."

The Phantom Soul Man nodded.

"Haha...haha...hahaha..."

Hearing Gu Sheng's words, the Phantom Soul man first let out a low-key laugh, and then burst into laughter.

The laughter seemed helpless and made Gu Sheng feel a little numb.

When the laughter stopped, the Phantom Soul man asked: "You were deceived by them. The Dragon Spirit Jade is a valuable cultivation treasure. Now that it has fallen into their hands, how could they let you cross the void? I'm afraid, they will let you cross the sky next." You continue to search for Longling Jade until..."

At this point, the Phantom Soul Man suddenly stopped.

"Until what?"

Gu Sheng asked impatiently.

The Phantom Soul Man paused, and then said reluctantly: "Until you find a large amount of Dragon Spirit Jade, then I will kill you!"

"ah?"

Gu Sheng's big mouth froze in place, "What? This... routine?"

"Not bad, a good routine."

The Phantom Soul Man nodded.

As soon as he finished speaking, the Phantom Soul man suddenly summoned his divine power.

"Whoosh!"

In an instant, a bright bead was born in the hands of the Phantom Soul Man.

"This is the inner elixir of our Phantom Soul people. When they gave you the order, did they tell you to take away our inner elixir?"

The Phantom Soul Man asked with a smile.

Gu Sheng nodded.

Because at the end of the jade slip, it was written: After killing the Phantom Soul Man, take out the inner elixir and bring it back, then the mission will be considered complete.

"No, here you go."

The Phantom Soul Man said, gently pushing forward with his palm.

The inner elixir immediately flew over Gu Sheng.

"Senior...Senior! Why?"

Gu Sheng caught the inner elixir with a look of disbelief on his face.

"Trust! Also, I don't want you to lead them to find other Dragon Spirit Jade, otherwise, we Phantom Soul people will no longer have a place to stay!"

The Phantom Soul man said solemnly.

Gu Sheng was moved by the sincerity revealed in the Phantom Soul man's deep eyes.

The doubts and confusion in his heart seemed to be melted away at this moment...

He knew that the reason why the Phantom Soul people did this was out of trust in him, and also out of concern for the entire Phantom Soul clan.

"call……"

Gu Sheng took a deep breath and felt that the burden on his body was heavier.

"Senior, thank you for your trust."

Gu Sheng had a solemn look on his face.

"Go ahead and verify what I'm saying."

The Phantom Soul Man waved his hand gently.

After saying that, the Phantom Soul man sat on the ground and began to adjust his breathing slowly.

For this phantom soul who has removed the inner elixir, almost all resistance has been lost.

If someone attacks at this time, it will be a dead end.

Therefore, Gu Sheng must be fast!

"Senior, take care! I'll be back as soon as I go!"

After saying that, Gu Sheng summoned his magical power and flew away. .

On the way back to Xiaoyaomen with the inner elixir, Gu Sheng's heart was filled with complicated emotions.

He knew what this inner elixir meant to Xiaoyao Sect.

But he also knew that the price behind this was the survival of the Phantom Soul people.

"Senior Brother Qingfeng."

Gu Sheng shouted.

Qingfeng's eyes were filled with surprise after seeing Gu Sheng come back.

"You? Are you back so soon?"

Qingfeng asked with wide eyes.

Gu Sheng nodded: "Yes, I got the inner elixir of the Phantom Soul Man and hurried back."

With that said, Gu Sheng showed the inner elixir of the Phantom Soul Man in front of Qingfeng.

Seeing the inner elixir, Qingfeng's eyes immediately shone with joy.

He didn't expect Gu Sheng to complete the task so quickly and bring back the inner elixir of the Phantom Soul Man.

"Gu Sheng, you did a great job!"

Qingfeng said happily, and then stepped forward to take the inner elixir as his own.

Gu Sheng knew the importance of this inner elixir and quickly took two steps back.

"how?"

Qingfeng frowned slightly, looking a little dissatisfied.

"What about your promise to let me cross the void?"

Gu Sheng asked coldly.

"Haha, this is easy to say. I promise you that I will take you across the void in advance."

Qingfeng said directly with a smile.

Gu Sheng was delighted.

But before Gu Sheng could be happy for a few seconds, Qingfeng made another request: "However, I need you to help me find more Dragon Spirit Jade."

"Um?"

When Gu Sheng heard this, he realized that this was exactly what the Phantom Soul Man said!

He immediately understood that Qingfeng was deliberately taking advantage of him.

Understanding this, Gu Sheng's mood suddenly became complicated.

If Qingfeng is agreed to, then the Phantom Soul people group will face annihilation.

If he fails to agree, Qingfeng will be disqualified from crossing the void, and even the Dragon Spirit Jade will be confiscated!

After weighing the pros and cons, Gu Sheng said seriously: "Senior Qingfeng, I can't promise you."

"What did you say?"

Qingfeng's face darkened. He didn't expect Gu Sheng to reject him.

"Gu Sheng, are you rejecting me? If you don't agree, then you won't be able to cross the void, and I won't return this Dragon Spirit Jade to you."

Qingfeng said coldly.

"Forehead……"

Gu Sheng's heart was filled with helplessness.

He knew that if he didn't agree to Qingfeng, his dream would not come true.

"Think carefully, this is an opportunity to cross the void. If you don't agree to my request, you will never be able to cross the void!"

Qingfeng reminded from the side.

Gu Sheng was silent for a while, and then said slowly: "Senior Qingfeng, I need time to prepare."

"Okay, I'll give you time, but don't make me wait too long."

Qingfeng's face softened a little, and she nodded in agreement.

Gu Sheng responded and flew away directly.

Soon, Gu Sheng found the Phantom Soul Man with the inner elixir and returned the inner elixir to him.

"Senior, return the property to its original owner."

The Phantom Soul man looked at Gu Sheng, his eyes filled with admiration.

"Little friend, you are really back."

The Phantom Soul Man took the inner elixir, his voice trembling.

"Yes, I'm back."

Gu Sheng nodded, and then said: "I cannot sacrifice your entire tribe for my own benefit."

The Phantom Soul man nodded movedly.

After a long time, he said: "You are a trustworthy friend and a breath of fresh air in the Eastern Wasteland."

"Senior, you're welcome. I'm just an ordinary person who wants to cross the void."

Gu Sheng said with a faint smile.

"Then what are you going to do next?"

Phantom Soul Man asked.

"I don't know. At worst, I won't cross the void."

Gu Sheng waved his hand, looking righteous and awe-inspiring.

"No! I have a way to help you cross the void."

Phantom Soul Man said.

"Oh? What can I do?"

Gu Sheng suddenly became interested.

"You can pretend to lead the people of Xiaoyao Sect to find Long Lingyu and kill him while you have the opportunity. In this way, you can get the quota without anyone noticing, what do you think?"

The Phantom Soul man suggested to Gu Sheng.

"You mean, kill the guy who asked me to find Long Lingyu?"

Gu Sheng asked with wide eyes.

"good."

The Phantom Soul Man nodded, and then said: "If you feel that you are not capable enough, my tribe and I can help you."

"this……"

Gu Sheng fell into deep thought.

If this was the case, he would pretend that Qingfeng had not returned to Xiaoyao Sect, and he could ask other cultivators from Xiaoyao Sect to help him cross the void.

As for Qingfeng, he deserves to be so greedy!

Thinking of this, Gu Sheng nodded: "Okay, I promise you!"

"good!"

The Phantom Soul Man nodded excitedly.

Then, Gu Sheng summoned up his magical power and flew back to Xiaoyaomen again.

When Gu Sheng returned to Xiaoyaomen, Qingfeng had already led several Xiaoyaomen cultivators to wait here.

Gu Sheng saw that these cultivators were all in the Shenqiao realm.

If fighting alone, none of these people can be his opponent.

However, a strong dragon cannot overwhelm a local snake.

If they all attack all at once, it will be really hard to resist.

But fortunately, there were help from the Phantom Soul people, otherwise Gu Sheng would really not have much confidence in his heart.

"Back?"

Qingfeng stepped forward and asked.

Gu Sheng nodded: "Yes, senior brother Qingfeng."

"Without further delay, let's go find the Dragon Spirit Jade quickly. If we are too late, we will delay your journey across the void."

Qingfeng put on a posture of deliberately thinking about Gu Sheng.

"Okay, let's go."

Gu Sheng nodded.

Then, under the leadership of Gu Sheng, Qingfeng and three cultivators of the Divine Bridge realm set up the divine rainbow and flew towards the distance.

Soon, Gu Sheng and the others arrived above the realm of the Phantom Soul Man.

Qingfeng looked down and was stunned.

"What did you bring us here for?"

Qingfeng asked coldly.

"Looking for Long Lingyu?"

Gu Sheng replied with a smile.

"Senior brother, this kid didn't hold anything back!"

"That's it, just kill him so as not to waste everyone's time."

"I think this kid is just teasing us on purpose!"

The cultivators said with a cold expression.

Qingfeng snorted coldly after thinking about the village for a short time.

"Hmph! Gu Sheng, I will give you one last chance. Take us to find Long Lingyu now, otherwise, I will kill you here!"

"hehe……"

Hearing this, Gu Sheng couldn't help laughing.

"Kill me? Come on!"

After Gu Sheng finished speaking, a dozen phantom souls suddenly rose into the air and came to Gu Sheng's side.

"What! It's the Phantom Soul Man! Let's go!"

Qingfeng gave the order, and the four of them immediately turned around and ran away.

But how could these phantom souls give them a chance to escape?

I saw these Phantom Soul people surrounding Qingfeng and the others.

Qingfeng was suddenly shocked, and an inexplicable fear surged in his heart.

But when he took a closer look, he recognized one of the phantom souls as his dead senior brother Qingmu.

At this time, Qingmu's eyes revealed strong anger, as if he was about to spit fire.

"Why did you deceive me back then?"

Qingmu asked coldly.

Qingfeng's face turned pale, knowing that in order to protect his own interests, he had concealed some facts.

Now faced with the questioning from his senior brother who had become a Phantom Soul Man, he was speechless.

He could only lower his head to show his shame.

"Qingfeng, why did you betray us?"

Qingmu asked again.

At the same time, the long sword in his hand was pointed at Qingfeng, the tip of the sword pointed directly at his throat.

Qingfeng didn't answer, knowing that he had no way to retreat, so he could only bite the bullet and fight.

"Uh-huh!"

Suddenly, he quickly drew his sword from his waist and rushed towards Qingmu.

"Qiang Qiang Qiang!"

The swords of both sides intertwined, the sword energy was vertical and horizontal, and the surrounding air seemed to be ignited.

At the same time, other Huanhun people and the Xiaoyao Sect disciples brought by Qingfeng also mingled.

As a master of Phantom Soul Man, Qingmu has sharp swordsmanship, and every move is full of murderous intent for revenge.

And Qingfeng is a bit shady psychologically, and seems a little powerless when facing a strong enemy like Qingmu.

At this moment, Gu Sheng suddenly took action.

"Uh-huh!"

His figure flashed and appeared beside Qingfeng in an instant.

"boom!"

He used the Void Palm in the Great Void Technique and slapped Qingmu with one palm.

Qingmu didn't expect that Gu Sheng would take action at this time, so he quickly retracted his sword and fought with Gu Sheng.

Gu Sheng's strength should not be underestimated, especially when using the Great Void Technique, which caught people off guard! ,

"Qiang Qiang Qiang!"

Qingfeng took several steps back and almost fell down.

Taking advantage of this opportunity, Qingmu also found a chance to take action.

He swung his sword to attack Qingfeng, and pierced Qingfeng's arm with one sword.

"Pfft!"

Blood immediately flowed out.

"ah!!!"

Qingfeng screamed, his face turned pale, and his forehead was sweating.

"Qingfeng, why don't you admit defeat?"

Qingmu said coldly.

Qingfeng gritted his teeth, knowing that he could not drag it out any longer, otherwise they would all die.

He took a deep breath, concentrated, and prepared for the final blow. (End of chapter)
