Zhu Minglang only had a lifespan of 300 years after obtaining the position of a Principal God.
In the end, because of an afternoon nap and a small Yinhai Ginseng, he lost a hundred years of his lifespan.
No matter how you looked at it, it was a huge loss!
At this moment, Zhu Minglang lifted his head to look at the Purple Qi Fortune Source above his head.
Sure enough, the Purple Qi Source was still there. That damned peddler even tricked him in his dream, making him think that he was sent by the heavens to reward him for his fortuitous encounter. Therefore, when making the deal, Zhu Minglang also let down his guard a little.
However, even if he didn't let down his guard, this kind of situation was very difficult to guard against.
"You just need to tell me if you are satisfied?"
Zhu Minglang repeated this sentence. With a clear mind, Zhu Minglang immediately understood how he had signed an agreement with this guy to sell his lifespan.
Wasn't this the trick that unscrupulous merchants often used?
The peddler would shout that when he sold the melon, he could taste it for free. If it wasn't sweet, he wouldn't have to pay.
After you tasted it, he would ask you for money and ask you to buy the whole melon at a price several times higher.
When you said that you didn't want to buy it because it wasn't sweet, the peddler would tell you that whether it was sweet or not was not up to you. The rules of the market were that once you tasted the melon, you had to buy the melon.
Even if you called someone to judge and find law enforcement officers to mediate, the peddler could still insist that you had already tasted the melon and couldn't sell it, so you had to pay. The verbal agreement between you and the peddler had no meaning at all.
Zhu Minglang had fallen into the trap of the unscrupulous merchant.
The most infuriating thing was that Zhu Minglang had said that the melon was extremely sweet! Just as he was about to take out some silver, the other party asked for gold!
A complete unscrupulous merchant!!
Zhu Minglang had never thought that there would be such a treacherous person in the Immortal World!
Now, Zhu Minglang also knew why he had suddenly left the Dream Hall when he asked Chang Cheng and Chang Huang about it.
It turned out that the evil god that was going to be executed was right in front of his face!
Even though he was an unscrupulous merchant.
However, swindling money and swindling life were two different things!
After all, if it wasn't him, the person today would have a lifespan of 300 years. For ordinary people, a lifespan of 100 years was taking their lives!
He deserved death for his crimes!
"Is this what you mean by personally capturing them? Da Zuo, Da You, would it kill you to remind me? If I can't get back my one hundred years of lifespan, don't even think about having an easy time!" said Zhu Minglang.
…
Since the Heavenly Execution Survey was triggered, it meant that this evil immortal must be wandering around Yuheng Xian City.
Furthermore, he was definitely not the first victim.
Usually, evil immortals would only choose to cheat the lifespan of mortals. If some immortals possessed some special abilities, the evil immortal would be in deep trouble. Especially if he met a dream master, the evil immortal might even spit out his own lifespan.
It was a pity that dream masters were not commonly seen. It was impossible for Zhu Minglang to find a dream master to assist him.
There were thirty-two righteous gods in the Alioth Divine Border. Each righteous god had a different divine power. This kind of thing had to be dealt with by a righteous god because evil immortals with this kind of power could not be dealt with purely by cultivation.
Zhu Minglang returned to Alioth.
When he walked into the White Frost Palace, Meng Bingci was practicing her swordsmanship. Her swordsmanship was very slow, it didn't look like it could kill immortals, but more like it could strengthen the body.
"You don't look well." Meng Bingci saw Zhu Minglang and immediately sensed that something was wrong with Zhu Minglang. After a while, she frowned and said, "You are aging."
"Something happened," said Zhu Minglang.
"Who did it?" asked Meng Bingci.
"I met an evil immortal, he stole a part of my soul." Zhu Minglang told Meng Bingci about the situation he encountered.
Meng Bingci listened carefully, she was obviously surprised by the evil immortal's ability.
Moreover, this kind of thing was very difficult to prevent.
"I'll send people to ask around and find out some cases of people dying of mysterious aging," said Meng Bingci.
"This should be a slow and effective process. At the very least, it will give the person whose soul has been taken away about a year's worth of lifespan to live. So, we can also investigate who became rich overnight, whose cultivation rose explosively overnight, or who had some fortuitous encounter that allowed them to turn the tables," Zhu Minglang said to Meng Bingci.
Hearing this, Meng Bingci fell into deep thought, she didn't speak for a long time.
Zhu Minglang was a little confused.
Meng Bingci stood up, took out a jade from the room, and handed it to Zhu Minglang. "Take this jade with you."
"The Ancient Lamp Jade, such a big piece?" Zhu Minglang said in surprise.
The jades stolen from the Mount Ming Sword Sect and Wen Lingfei were as small as peas compared to this one.
"I've collected some in Shenjiang over the years," said Meng Bingci.
"Did you think of someone just now? His situation is very similar to what I said?" asked Zhu Minglang.
"Yes, but I need to investigate before I can make a conclusion," Meng Bingci nodded, but didn't tell Zhu Minglang who she thought of.
"You're being so careful, this person's status must be extraordinary," said Zhu Minglang.
Meng Bingci looked at the Jade Frost Palace, but didn't say anything.
Zhu Minglang was shocked.
Hoplite??
"It happened many years ago. She was the same as you. She aged in just a month, but she also broke through the most important level of her cultivation. Since then, I've always been behind her," said Meng Bingci.
Zhu Minglang had been in Alioth for some time. He had heard some things about the past in Alioth.
Meng Bingci and Meng Yuchang had always been Alioth's two bright jade stars. They were the center of attention, and the candidates for the Yuheng Xian without a doubt.
For a long time, the elder sister, Meng Bingci, had the upper hand, and had a chance to become the Yuheng Xian.
However, in the following years, not only did Meng Yuchang's cultivation catch up to Meng Bingci's, her cultivation was also a level higher. She became the undisputed First Jade Fairy.
The distressed Meng Bingci entered the Dragon's Gate. She also hoped that she could be the best in the Dragon's Gate, break through her cultivation at the last moment, and become the First Jade Fairy again.
However, there were many strong people in the Dragon's Gate. Not only were there the Seven Gods of Shenjiang, but there were also the Gods of Tiansu.
Meng Bingci climbed to the top step by step. If she had obtained the Divine Position, she would have had a chance to compete with Meng Yuchang for the position of the Yuheng Xian. Unfortunately, she met Zhu Xuehen at the top of the Dragon's Gate. She was defeated, and all her cultivation dissipated. She fell to the Polar Court Continent and became a mortal.
Zhu Minglang didn't expect that the Evil Immortal he encountered would bring up an old story.
It was obvious that the Yuheng Xian had made a deal with this Evil Immortal when she was young.
Only Hoplite knew whether she had been tricked, or she had willingly paid the price of her life in exchange for the advancement of her cultivation level.
Regardless, Zhu Minglang had to investigate further.
