I Have A Dual World Seal

Lu Zheng always keeps his word, saying he would leave Venerable Jin Jue’s whole corpse, and he did indeed leave Venerable Jin Jue’s whole corpse, never breaking his promise.

Even after decapitating him with one swift stroke, severing his head from his body, he used the Cold Condensation Curse to reattach the head and body.

It’s all about trustworthiness!

And with Venerable Jin Jue dead, naturally, his junior brother couldn’t expect to live either.

Lu Zheng struck, and the opponent, with only a thousand years of Dao practice, couldn’t resist for long before Lu Zheng cut him into pieces, dispersing his ghostly form into light smoke, completely erased by Innate Cloud Qi.

Thus, Venerable Jin Jue, the senior brother of the Profound Yin Mountain lineage, is thoroughly dead, unable to return to the Netherworld ever again.

"Is the Profound Yin Mountain lineage gone?" Lu Zheng couldn’t help but ask.

Si Lingxi shook her head, "There’s a few left, but they’re insignificant. If a battle breaks out at Peach Blossom Plain, even Ying could handle them."

"I see, then I’m relieved." Lu Zheng nodded, and Shen Ying also heaved a sigh of relief. The two exchanged glances and laughed.

Not many years ago, Profound Yin Mountain was still a burden pressing down on them.

Back then, Master Qing Song explained to Lu Zheng the origin of the Profound Yin Divine Mirror, advising him not to reveal it frequently. Lu Zheng was especially serious and cautious, not daring to show the magical treasure for a long time afterward.

Now, several years have passed, and they have killed several known figures of the Profound Yin Mountain lineage. There are few remaining with any reputation.

Not fearing the Profound Yin Mountain lineage’s pursuit, the matter of the Dark Sun Crossing Void True Emperor Demon Venerable has also gradually faded. Even if the details of the Cloud Palace Treasure Mirror and the Profound Yin Divine Pearl are accidentally revealed, the group need not be afraid anymore.

Feeling the Light of Fortune increase again in the Mind Jade Seal, Lu Zheng was in high spirits.

"Let’s go! Go home for dinner, I’ll cook personally!"

...

Returning to the county, it was just past 5:00 PM. Liu Qingyan and Du Yueyao happened to be getting off work together, initially planning to go to Peach Blossom Plain, but they coincidentally ran into Lu Zheng’s group returning at the South Gate of the town.

"Why are you back? Weren’t we supposed to have dinner at Taohua Manor tonight?" Liu Qingyan asked.

"Oh? Were we?" Lu Zheng asked.

"Indeed, didn’t you tell us this morning?" Du Yueyao said.

Lu Zheng blinked, "I forgot."

"But there’s still time, let’s go back to Taohua Manor, I’ll cook." Lu Zheng laughed.

"Is there something good that happened today?" Liu Qingyan couldn’t help but ask.

Take note, although Lu Zheng’s cooking skills are divine, he doesn’t often cook. Today, not only did he forget the dinner plan at Taohua Manor, he is also preparing to cook personally, which must mean there’s a reason.

"Got a good deal." Lu Zheng laughed.

Liu Qingyan and Du Yueyao looked at each other, not knowing what Lu Zheng meant by a good deal.

Du Yueyao even looked at the women behind Lu Zheng, trying to see what kind of bargain he got.

Shen Ying giggled as she hooked Du Yueyao’s arm, shaking her head with a smile, "It’s not a bargain in goods, but we dealt with a surprisingly formidable opponent."

"Ah?"

Du Yueyao was shocked and hurriedly asked, "You encountered an enemy?"

"Profound Yin Mountain lineage." Shen Ying replied.

"Profound Yin Mountain?" Liu Qingyan’s eyes narrowed and she asked solemnly, "Did they discover us?"

"No, it was quite a coincidence. Let’s head home first, we can talk as we eat." Lu Zheng said as he turned back.

"Alright!"

...

Lu Zheng possessed the Cloud Palace Treasure Mirror, and Shen Ying had the Profound Yin Divine Pearl; previously, they hadn’t kept it a secret from Du Yueyao, and today they even let Yang Caiyi know.

Though Yang Caiyi was young, she was mature for her age, and the group wasn’t worried about her letting it slip.

...

"A ghost from Profound Yin Mountain found clues from the past and tracked us to Yizhou?"

"Master Yue Chen and the ghost ended up wounded together?"

"Master Qing Song arrived, only to find out that the ghost had backing, surprisingly Venerable Jin Jue of the Profound Yin Mountain lineage?"

Liu Qingyan sighed, "Good thing when Master Yue Chen pursued the ghost, Venerable Jin Jue hadn’t arrived yet, otherwise it would have been dangerous."

Lu Zheng nodded, "Indeed, our luck was good, and Senior Brother Yuan Jing’s luck was even better."

Everyone, "..."

But thinking about it, if Master Yue Chen wasn’t there, who would step up for the citizens? Wouldn’t it have been Daoist Yuan Jing?

And with Yuan Jing’s cultivation, facing a millennium Ghost King, there wouldn’t be a chance to retreat intact!

"So, Master Qing Song took action and severely wounded Venerable Jin Jue."

Liu Qingyan looked at Lu Zheng with amusement in her eyes, "Then you chased after them and blocked the two... ghosts, killing them?"

Lu Zheng nodded as if it were natural, "Venerable Jin Jue tried to escape, struck down hard twice by Master Qing Song, and even had a Secret Cloud Soul-Suppressing Curse planted on him, reducing his power to less than three-tenths.

Shouldn’t we seize the opportunity to capture him now, rather than wait for him to recover and come back?"

Du Yueyao glanced at Si Lingxi, unable to hold back her laughter.

Clearly capable of a frontal confrontation, yet choosing to exploit weaknesses and sneak attacks.

"By killing Venerable Jin Jue, the remaining members of Profound Yin Mountain are now just a few stray cats, incapable of causing any trouble." Lu Zheng shrugged, "There’s nothing to be worried about anymore."

"So should we celebrate?" Liu Qingyan raised her glass with a smile.

"Indeed, it’s time to celebrate!" Lu Zheng nodded and laughed heartily.

Then everyone raised their glasses together.

...

Everyone was abnormal people, having dinner at Taohua Manor, not bothering to return specifically to the county, since the manor was spacious enough; even Du Yueyao and Yang Caiyi had their own rooms there.

...

"Speaking of..."

Liu Qingyan played with the miniaturized, two-inch long dark golden Flying Shuttle in one hand, while tracing circles on Lu Zheng’s chest with the jade-like fingers of the other, "The recent gains seem considerable."

Lu Zheng nodded with a smile, "So, our luck has been quite good too."

Before the year, we went to the Southern Border, annihilated the Primordial Saint Sect’s New Sect lineage, and also took out the Valley Master of White Smoke Valley, Master Yanxia, obtaining his Soul-Lowering Bell.

This Soul-Lowering Bell targets the divine soul specifically, and its power is considerable. Originally, I intended to give it to Du Yueyao, but she adamantly refused, so I gave it to Shen Ying.

After all, Shen Ying is relatively close to the Netherworld, and this Soul-Lowering Bell is indeed effective against ghosts.

Both of these magical treasures are powerful Dao protection magical treasures from beings with thousands of years of cultivation and are of impressive quality.

"This Flying Shuttle should be given to Wan." Liu Qingyan said, "I don’t fight much."

"She has no fights at all." Lu Zheng shook his head, "Executing tasks on Blue Star counts as fighting? That Light Smoke Sword suits her perfectly."

A storage magical treasure from individuals like Master Yanxia and Venerable Jin Jue naturally contains more than one treasure.

But other treasures’ quality is limited, and bringing them into play might not be as useful as casting oneself, so they’re rarely used.

However, Lin Wan’s cultivation is limited, and although the Red Jade Sword is somewhat behind her advancing strength, there’s no need for a replacement.

During the New Year, I gave her the replacement Light Smoke Sword, which was originally Master Yanxia’s artifact, and its quality is sufficient for Lin Wan to use for a long time.
