"Today's weather is pretty good."
Walking on the empty street, Mo You looked at the unchanging sky and uttered a sentence out of boredom.
The city wasn't that empty now. Ever since the foreign souls came here, many of them used this place as a resting spot. Anyway, there were plenty of empty spaces. They could find a random place or modify it to become their temporary nest.
This made the small city more lively. At least, it wasn't as quiet as before.
However, in this city, Mo You knew that he was a very special person. Because he was Gu Zheng's friend, whether it was Elder Gu's side or the Foreign Soul's side, they all treated him well. Moreover, he didn't have any burdens. Except for some special places, he could do whatever he wanted. He was very free and comfortable.
However, although this made her happy, in fact, occasionally, she would feel bored in the depths of her heart. Everyone didn't mind her help, but every time she was clumsy, she would be more of a hindrance than a help. In the end, she didn't bother others and wandered around by herself.
Although her life was pretty good, it wasn't what she wanted. Actually, she didn't know what she wanted. However, after hearing about the situation outside from others, she knew that many people were envious of her situation.
As she was walking, she suddenly saw a familiar foreign soul walking towards her. Her eyes lit up and she stopped him.
"Is there anything I can help you with?"
Yes, the only thing she wouldn't do now was to move things. This was also the only thing she didn't do wrong.
"Of course, I'm here this time to look for you. In the center, Elder Gu is renovating some houses. She needs to move the waste materials out. Of course, she also needs to move the stones outside. Didn't she know that you were bored and specially asked me to come over? I've been looking for you for half a day," the foreign soul said with a smile.
"That's great. Elder Gu is the best. But I'll have to trouble you," Mo You said happily. "Are you going too?"
"I'm not going. I have other things to do, so I won't accompany you." After the foreign soul finished speaking, he nodded at her and turned to leave in another direction.
Mo You didn't mind. She ran to the center excitedly. She hadn't exercised for months. Now that she had the chance, how could she let it go?
Soon, she arrived at the center, where at least a hundred people were busy. The previous houses had all been dug up, and a pit that was tens of meters deep appeared in the center. However, at this time, a large hole had already been buried deep in it, which made her a little curious. After all, she had come here a few days ago, and there was no change here. After not seeing for a few days, it had quietly changed like this, which was too exaggerated. After seeing Elder Gu in the distance, she directly ran over.
"Elder Gu, how did you finish digging the pit so quickly?"
"This is an External Soul Innate Skill. It's mainly used to bury some things. The things are all in the main hall. In order to conceal them, they are all buried underground. After a while, you won't even be able to see the main hall." Elder Gu looked at Mo You's confusion and explained with a smile.
There were only a few Outer Souls here, and Qian Han was here as well. The others were all puppets, and there were dozens of detection arrays outside. It was clear that the protection was very tight.
"What do I need to do?" Mo You nodded. Actually, she didn't understand at all, but knowing that there was something to do was enough.
"You don't need to do it now. Yesterday, Gu Zheng sent someone to bring news. Didn't you say that you wanted to know about him? Just come with me. When I come back, I'll clean up. Are you willing to come with me? "Elder Gu asked.
"Okay."
Mo You agreed without hesitation. She obediently stood to the side and waited for Elder Gu to arrange things before following her in another direction.
In a unique room, Hua Ying and the Water Demon siblings had been waiting for a long time. When they saw Elder Gu arrive, Hua Ying directly jumped down from her seat and shouted.
"When I looked for you yesterday, you weren't here. We still have something very important here."
"I'm sorry. At that time, I was still in seclusion and couldn't leave at all. I've wasted your time."
What Hua Ying didn't expect was that Elder Gu would directly apologize to her. She was just venting and didn't have any other intentions. Seeing this, her little face immediately became embarrassed. She shyly said.
"I forgive you."
After saying that, she obediently sat back down in her seat.
Elder Gu smiled slightly and didn't mind her actions. She knew how to appease the other party with one look. After sitting down with Mo You, she opened her mouth and said.
"Why are you in such a hurry? What happened? Is Gu Zheng okay? "
"Gu Zheng is fine. He's even fighting with the demon souls. But it seems that it's almost over. He'll definitely win." Hua Ying said a few sentences. "I have some matters here that require the help of an external soul. Gu Zheng asked me to come over and ask for your help."
"Oh? What's the situation? " Elder Gu could see that Hua Ying had a mark on her body that Gu Zheng had shown her. It meant that she was trustworthy and she had promised her something. Thus, she directly asked.
Hua Ying quickly explained the matter again and finally said.
"A lot of strange things are happening outside. There's also a woman from Houtu who actually established the Six Paths of Reincarnation. You can even hear it from here."
"Don't ask about that. As for your matter, I can help, but I need some time. How about giving me three days? When the time comes, I'll send someone to go with you. Of course, I can't guarantee success." Elder Gu patiently listened to the other party's messy words. But she still understood what she meant and directly said.
For this matter, with Gu Zheng's face and her personal invitation, the external soul shouldn't refuse. However, she wouldn't make any guarantees.
"How straightforward. But you don't have to send anyone to protect me because the demon souls on the road are all empty. There's not a single demon soul. It seems that all of them are heading towards the palace." Hua Ying said with a smile.
"All empty? Not a single demon soul? " Hearing this, Elder Gu, who was about to stand up, immediately asked. She felt that things weren't that simple.
"Anyway, along the way, many of the demon souls are heading towards the palace. I even specially passed by a few places. They're all empty." Hua Ying said with certainty. She even turned her head to Yan Ge and the rest. "Don't you think so?"
"Yes, Miss Hua Ying is right. Moreover, all of the demon souls are gathered together." Yan Yue said from the side.
"What's going on? Why are they suddenly called back?" Elder Gu's mind spun with countless thoughts, but she couldn't think of anything.
"What else can it be? They must have lost and are afraid that the other party will attack them. They're just protecting themselves. It can't be that Wen Tianhou's new subordinate is here to control those demon souls again." Hua Ying curled her lips and said.
"New subordinate is controlling? What's going on? "Elder Gu naturally paid attention to Wen Tianhou's matter and asked again.
"That's the power of the Myriad Spirit Diagram. It can control all the demon souls here. I don't know how Wen Tianhou managed to control them. Otherwise, we wouldn't have been trapped there." Hua Ying said angrily.
Although that person didn't seem to have any ill intentions towards her, it still made her unhappy. After all, she trapped their entire clan.
"Perhaps your guess is right. The other party is trying to strengthen their control. However, it has nothing to do with us right now. By the way, does Gu Zheng have anything else to say?" Elder Gu nodded and finally asked.
"If you didn't mention it, I would have forgotten. He said that he would come over after a while. He should be on his way now." Hua Ying was stunned at first, then clapped her hands and said loudly.
"Do you have anything else you want to ask?" Elder Gu turned his head and asked Mo You.
"No. Since he's here, I'll go look for him later." Mo You shook her head and said.
"If there's nothing else, I'll take my leave first. Someone will come to look for you later." Elder Gu stood up and said to Hua Ying.
"I know. I won't run around anymore." Hua Ying said obediently. After sending Elder Gu off, she said to Yan Ge.
"You can leave now. I don't need you for the rest of the matter. No one will hurt me anyway. Anyway, thank you. I will remember you."
"If that's the case, then Miss Hua Ying, we'll take our leave first." Yan Ge didn't refuse because they couldn't help much over there.
"Miss Hua Ying, we will also remember you. Goodbye!" Yan Yue also smiled and said.
"Alright, alright. Hurry up and leave. It's not like we're going to part forever." Hua Ying waved her hand impatiently. Then, she turned into a shadow and disappeared in front of them.
"It seems that Miss Hua Ying is still a little shy. Let's go." Yan Yue naturally understood what was going on and said to Yan Ge.
As Yan Ge and the others disappeared from the room, Hua Ying's body appeared at the door again. Looking at the other party's back completely disappearing into the distance, she muttered.
"It's really boring to be alone."
After saying that, she disappeared at the door again and didn't appear again.
"Elder Gu, the people from Lone Peak are already here. They're already outside. Should we let them in?"
Elder Gu was still on his way back when Little Qing hurried over and said to Elder Gu.
"So fast. Go and lead them to the living room. I'll go there later." Elder Gu was a little surprised but still gave the order.
After Little Qing left, Elder Gu said to Mo You, "Mo You, it seems that I still have something to do. Go and do it first. I don't need to tell you what to do. If there's anything else, I'll tell you."
"Elder Gu, go and do your thing. I know what to do." Mo You said crisply and then ran towards the center of the living room.
Elder Gu waited until the other party left his sight before turning around and walking in another direction. However, his expression suddenly changed. After quickly looking left and right to make sure that there was no one around, he immediately hid by the side of the building.
"Cough cough."
Elder Gu bent over and coughed violently. His entire body flickered and only recovered after half a cup of tea's time. If one looked carefully, they would notice that Elder Gu's body was relatively more illusory than before.
"I didn't expect that those days of being sealed would still hurt my foundation. I must hold on for Lord Black Dragon."
After returning to normal, Elder Gu walked out from the side as if nothing had happened. Soon, he arrived at the place where the guests were received.
"Elder Gu, right? I'm Lonely Peak's Bai Jiajia. It's my honor to meet you."
As soon as Elder Gu entered, Bai Jiajia took the initiative to welcome him with a smile. However, there was a trace of worry between her brows.
"Fellow Daoist Jiajia, nice to meet you. Please take a seat." Elder Gu also greeted her with a smile.
"We already know what you meant the last time. Gu Zheng is our friend. Naturally, Elder Gu is also our friend."
After the two exchanged greetings, their relationship became much closer.
"Elder Gu, I'll get straight to the point. Right now, I've already gathered all the teams that can fight. This is also the last of my Lord's strength to preserve their strength. They're all used to attack the Demon Soul. They only want to die. There are more than ten thousand of them." Bai Jiajia's face turned serious as she said solemnly.
"What's going on? I just want to cooperate with you. I didn't send them to their deaths." Elder Gu was really stunned and said with some confusion.
"Just before we came, our Lonely Peak had completely dissipated. Except for some people who evacuated, the rest have been sent back to where they came from. We're the only team left. Including me, there's only one elder following us." Bai Jiajia said frankly.
"Could it be that Wen Tianhou attacked you?" Elder Gu could only think of this point.
"The other party did make a trip here, and was severely injured at the same time as my lord. However, we took the initiative to remove the Lone Peak. Otherwise, the consequences would be too severe, and none of us would be able to bear it. You know what happened a while ago, right? The people of our Lone Peak were all stolen from the Underworld through shady means. Now, we must return them. The remaining people have already recovered their memories, and are willing to sacrifice themselves to kill Wen Tianhou and contribute to the human race."
Bai Jiajia's words made Elder Gu vaguely understand what was going on. However, she could now make a decision.
"Welcome to the team. Although it will still take some time here, when Gu Zheng comes back, I think it's almost time to set off."
At this time, all the materials in her hands had been turned into puppets. The Lake of Birth was also given to the External Soul. Of course, it was also without the help of Shan Long.
Thinking of Shan Long, Elder Gu was a little excited. At this time, the black color on Shan Long's body had almost completely faded. Soon, he would become a real body. At that time, he would be a clone of the real Black Dragon. He would have his own independent thinking and cultivation. He could continue to cultivate and be no different from Lord Black Dragon. She only had one mission left.
"Great. I'll tell you the details now. We'll be your subordinates for the time being." Bai Jiajia was overjoyed.
While Elder Gu and Bai Jiajia were discussing, Mo You was happily moving bricks in the middle. At the same time, she was also commanding the slightly cumbersome puppets. On the other side, Xiao Fang was constantly looking around to ensure that the materials were placed in the correct position.
In a flash, half a day had passed. Mo You didn't feel tired at all. She bent down and was about to lift a stone material. Suddenly, her body stiffened. Then, she calmly continued to lift it with both hands. The stone that was the size of a millstone was lifted up easily and walked to the other side.
"Bang!"
She came to the predetermined place and directly placed it next to the predetermined position. The huge weight caused the ground to tremble.
"Mo You, you put it in the wrong position. Put it to the side." Xiao Fang, who had been observing the overall situation, immediately realized that something was wrong. She immediately shouted at Mo You.
"How is that possible? The mark is here. If you don't believe me, come and take a look. "Mo You pointed at her feet and said.
"No, you must have remembered wrongly. Don't move." Xiao Fang saw this and ran over to correct her mistake. This might be a good idea.
"Look carefully and see if you remembered wrongly." Xiao Fang pointed at the mark below and said.
"It's covered by the soil. I really remembered wrongly." Mo You laughed. Then, she quickly said in a low voice, "Someone snuck in and is watching us nearby."
"Is this correct?" Mo You moved slightly and asked.
"Yes, it's correct this time. Next time, if you don't remember clearly, you must ask me. Don't place it casually. Otherwise, something big will happen." Xiao Fang nodded in satisfaction.
"Miss Qian Han, there are some things here that require Elder Gu's decision. Please go and look for her." After Xiao Fang left, she shouted at Qian Han in the distance.
"Okay, I'll go after I arrange it." Qian Han immediately responded.
She quickly arranged it and walked towards Xiao Fang. "Give it to me. I still have things to do here."
Xiao Fang nimbly took out a document from her bosom. It was covered by a layer of white light, making it impossible to see the words on it.
"I almost forgot. Fortunately, there's still time. I'll have to trouble Miss Qian Han to make a trip."
"This small matter is no trouble at all. Just take care of this place. I'll be back soon." Qian Han took it and quickly flew into the distance.
Next, Xiao Fang also began to take care of this place like before. However, she also had to look after Qian Han. It was more difficult than before.
"Elder Gu, it's settled. Our people will be here in about five days."
On the other side, Elder Gu and Bai Jiajia had reached a comprehensive agreement. Bai Jiajia stood up and said.
"Time is not important. You are welcome to join us. Compared to this time, we have more confidence." Elder Gu also stood up and said with a smile.
Wen Tianhou's injury was the best news for her.
"Then I'll take my leave first. See you later." Bai Jiajia said goodbye.
"Elder Gu, there's something."
Elder Gu was about to send her off when Qian Han barged in and said to Elder Gu in a serious tone.
"I have something to do here. I won't send you off." Elder Gu knew that Qian Han would not barge in if there was nothing particularly important. Hence, she said apologetically.
Bai Jiajia did not care. She nodded and smiled at Qian Han before walking out.
"What's the matter?" Elder Gu saw Bai Jiajia leave and casually set up a barrier before asking.
"Xiao Fang asked me to come over. Look!"
As she spoke, Qian Han took out the piece of paper and handed it to Elder Gu.
"There's an unknown enemy peeping nearby. Mo You."
Erasing the light on it, a line of words was revealed.
Obviously, Mo You found some traces and told Xiao Fang. Then, Xiao Fang asked Qian Han to pass the message. This meant that the enemy had not realized that he had been discovered.
This reminded her that when she first came here, there seemed to be an enemy scouting this place. However, she did not notice it at that time.
"Let's go back together and pretend that nothing happened."
