"Old Lu should break through in three or five days. You just wait."

"Recently, many ghost disasters have appeared in Hanshui City. If there is nothing to do these days, you can go to catch ghosts near Hanshui City. You can also redeem contribution points when you go back. I will write you a certificate letter." Elder Gai smiled, very caring for the three juniors of Lu Yang.

"Ghost disasters?" Lu Yang was puzzled. Hanshui City has a provincial governor sitting in town and the Corpse-Driving Sect helping out. What ghost disaster dares to show its head?

Elder Gai sighed: "Wasn't the previous provincial governor reported and caught, along with a group of officials? The personnel of the Huang Province officialdom were transferred."

"At this time, many ghost disasters suddenly appeared in Hanshui City. Even using rules is difficult to completely prohibit. It should be that there are Integration stage cultivators fighting in the dark."

"The newly appointed provincial governor hasn't stood firm yet when he encountered this kind of thing. The handling is not very appropriate, and the ghost disasters have not been effectively contained."

"The Jiuyou Sect is best at driving ghosts and chasing ghosts. The provincial governor suspects that the Jiuyou Sect is making trouble in the dark and is strictly investigating, but has not achieved any results."

"As a famous great sect in the Huang Province, my Corpse-Driving Sect naturally takes responsibility and encourages disciples to go to solve the ghost disasters. The level of the ghost disasters is not high, enough for you to cope with."

"Of course, you can also choose to learn corpse-driving techniques in our sect. See how you choose."

Lu Yang and Meng Jingzhou looked at each other, seeing the confusion in each other's eyes.

How could it be the Jiuyou Sect making trouble in the dark? They are opening a barbecue shop vigorously, where do they have the energy to do this? Is it that they think the barbecue shop doesn't earn enough?

No matter who created the ghost disaster, as disciples of the Wendao Sect, they must deal with it.

After the group of people bid farewell to Elder Gai, the Decayed Fairy's voice echoed in Lu Yang's mind.

"The old man just now is not a living person, but a living corpse. The refining method is quite brilliant."

"Who?" Lu Yang thought he had heard wrong.

"The old man just now."

Lu Yang's thoughts turned around, and he instantly thought of the most likely thing to happen, cold sweat dripping: Elder Gai died, no one knew, someone refined Elder Gai's corpse, thereby creating the illusion that Elder Gai was still alive.

"Brother Zhao, I see that Elder Gai seems to have some abnormalities." Lu Yang asked tentatively.

Zhao Po gave a thumbs up: "Brother Lu has good eyes, you can even see this. The one sitting just now is not my master, but a living corpse refined by my master."

"What's going on?" Meng Jingzhou and Seeing Man Gu became interested.

Zhao Po explained with a smile, without any avoidance: "We corpse-drivers are in contact with corpse energy and death energy all year round, and our bodies are out of balance between yin and yang, with yin flourishing and yang declining, leading to a weak physical body. Not to mention compared to body cultivators like Brother Meng, even the physical bodies of ordinary cultivators are stronger than ours."

"The cultivation of a corpse-driver is all reflected in the refined living corpse. For the sake of safety, corpse-drivers who reach the Spirit Transformation stage no longer show their true faces, but let the refined living corpse replace themselves."

"It's not just my master; all the elders in the sect use living corpses to replace themselves when walking outside. No one knows where their true bodies are."

"Moreover, most corpse-drivers are unwilling to communicate with living people, are afraid of strangers, and are silent, which just allows the living corpse to replace themselves. Why not do it?"

Corpse-drivers deal with corpses all year round and are very introverted. People like Zhao Po are the minority.

"So that's how it is." Lu Yang suddenly realized, it was he who thought too much.

"Next, are you going to learn in our school, or am I going to take a mission and go with me to solve the ghost disaster?"

Lu Yang hooked a smile at the corner of his mouth and said righteously: "Naturally, I want to go to solve the ghost disaster. Old Meng has a single-body spiritual root and has formed two single-body Golden Cores. Any ghost that sees his pure yang body will run away!"

"With Old Meng taking action, solving the ghost disaster is easy!"

Although it was Lu Yang's rare praise for himself, and what he said was all the truth, Meng Jingzhou couldn't be happy no matter what.

You are the one with the single-body spiritual root, your whole family has a single-body spiritual root!

Sometimes Meng Jingzhou really wanted to give Lu Yang a set of single-body curse fists, but he didn't dare.

Intuition told himself that if he gave Lu Yang a set of single-body curse fists, the karmic backlash would be more serious than it is now, and then he really wouldn't be able to be saved.

Mere Lu Yang, wait until I become an immortal and then give him a set of boxing techniques!

"In this way, can we take missions in the Jin Dan stage at will?" Zhao Po thought, the four of them in the Jin Dan stage taking action could sweep through Jin Dan stage ghost missions.

Lu Yang waved his hand: "Be bolder, you can also take Nascent Soul stage ones."

Zhao Po was shocked, but soon figured it out. The four of them working together should be no problem dealing with Nascent Soul stage ghosts.

"Okay, then I'll go find Nascent Soul stage missions. The three of you wait here for a moment."

While Zhao Po went to take the mission, Lu Yang had nothing to do, took out the Jiuyou Order, contacted Vice Sect Master Shi, and entered a paragraph.

"Our Heavenly Court Sect has a Heavenly King in Hanshui City in the Huang Province, who discovered that a ghost disaster has appeared here. The provincial governor suspects that you did it. Did you do it?"

After waiting for a while, the Jiuyou Order did not respond for a long time. Lu Yang thought Vice Sect Master Shi was busy and didn't look at the Jiuyou Order. Just as he was about to put it back, he saw the Jiuyou Order getting hot, and a long paragraph of text appeared on the surface.

Lu Yang was speechless: "It turns out it's not that Vice Sect Master Shi didn't see it, it's that he was writing frantically."

Vice Sect Master Shi's reply was like this:

"This is pure slander. These bastards in the imperial court are putting the blame on us again. Our sect master thinks that the 'Shop Talk' proposed by Young Sect Master Lu is very good. Now the Jiuyou Sect has too few strong people, so we should cultivate diligently and increase the number of Integration stage and even Tribulation Transcendence stage people. All the activities of our Jiuyou Sect are in a semi-stagnant state, and the whole sect is busy opening chain stores to make money. This is the decision made by the sect master."

Jiuyou Sect branch, Vice Sect Master Shi saw Lu Yang's question and was filled with righteous indignation.

"We don't even have enough time to make money now, where do we have the energy to engage in any ghost disaster? What benefits can we get? The imperial court hasn't slandered us once or twice. Whenever there is something unclear, they say it's our Demon Sect that did it. Where does our Demon Sect have the leisure to do these things!"

He scolded while replying to Lu Yang. If this made the Heavenly Court Sect misunderstand and mistakenly think that the Jiuyou Sect ignored the overall situation and acted without authorization, it would be difficult to cooperate deeply in the future.

After replying, he felt it was necessary to explain something to Lu Yang, but found that the Jiuyou Order could not be used.

"Still have to cool down for five days, really troublesome."

Vice Sect Master Shi leaned on the chair and looked at the ceiling, suddenly patted his forehead: "Hi, why am I worrying about this? Isn't the sect master in the Huang Province?"

He took out another Jiuyou Order and told the sect master about what Lu Yang said, to see how the sect master said to handle it.

The sect master replied quickly, with only one sentence.

"I am in Hanshui City."
