“Tomorrow night, in the early morning, my villa.”
Wu Rong would not try it in such an unsafe place, and besides that, the concert was almost over after such a long delay.
Whether or not taking out the lotus seeds will cause abnormalities and the possibility of the Secret Lotus Congregation taking notice, these things needed to be considered.
“You know where it is.”
His tone was light, and he pressed his fingertips on the Blood Lotus Seed’s bulge. He did not use blood, but exuded a bit of the big ghost’s breath, which made the Blood Lotus Seed tremble in fear. With the trembling of the shoulders in front of him, Wu Rong understood that Zhou Jin had sensed the meaning behind his words. He withdrew his hand and watched the young man stand up in front of him with a complicated expression, hesitant to speak.
“You’ll let me go just like that?”
He pretended to be disdainful and smiled, but his eyes were full of temptation when he looked at Wu Rong, with some emotions hidden deeper in his eyes. His tone was light and nonchalant: “Now that I have got the baby spirit back, only fools would fall into a trap again.”
“Do as you want.”
For Wu Rong, it was up to Zhou Jin to come or not, anyway, he had already planted a Gu on him through his contact with Wu Rong just now. This kind of Gu was a secretion by the Zhong Gu, and is cast on a person’s soul, so no matter where Zhou Jin was, Wu Rong could easily sense it. When Zhou Jin dies in a few days, the Gu will automatically hide his soul, and come to Wu Rong like a tired bird returning to its nest.
Only a small secretion from Zhong Gu was used by Wu Rong on Zhou Jin. If Zhou Jin doesn’t come tomorrow morning, when he dies, Wu Rong could get Zhou Jin’s soul for free, which was very convenient.
But Wu Rong still liked to be more secure after all, so he made two-handed preparations.
“You–”
Zhou Jin saw this attitude in his eyes. The soul bearing the angel’s tattoo was more naive and sensitive than the devil one. At this moment, Zhou Jin’s heart was full of chaotic emotions and mixed feelings. Especially upon seeing Wu Rong’s cold and calm eyes, that didn’t have any superfluous emotions. His back was cold, his clothes were ripped open, but Wu Rong just observed the Blood Lotus Seeds and the wing tattoos.
The devil is the original sin of desire, and the angel is the temptation of purity. Zhou Jin had seen all kinds of eyes full of evil thoughts and desires, especially the higher-level ghost breeders’ attitude towards him, which were more distorted and paranoid, trying to imprison him from soul to body. This was a survival instinct. At the level of a high-level ghost raiser, a single backlash may completely kill them, so Zhou Jin was their medicine.
A medicine that caused countless greedy, dark and evil thoughts.

Is he just hiding his thoughts deeply, or is he really a good guy?
A little bit of kindness between people and strangers was very precious, especially from a ghost breeder with a distorted temperament. Before Zhou Jin came here, he was prepared to face all kinds of cruel and mean treatments, but now that he was standing in front of Wu Rong, he felt like it was a little unreal.
Especially how Wu Rong glanced at him indifferently again, as if wondering why he was still standing here and not rolling away, the corners of Zhou Jin’s eyes twitched, and a subtle feeling of unwillingness rose in his heart.
In his eyes, Wu Rong was powerful and mysterious, not like those ghost keepers who were too weak to have desire for him.
Could it be that Wu Rong couldn’t do it?
“There’s an organization behind the Secret Lotus Congregation and the Zhou family.”
Zhou Jin’s gaze slipped unconsciously, and he shuddered when he suddenly met Wu Rong’s cold gaze, yet he said dryly: “The organization that planted the Blood Lotus Seeds on me will buy all kinds of good-looking ghosts on the surface.”
Buy all kinds of good-looking ghosts?
Wu Rong frowned slightly. He remembered that Su Xiaomi said that his brother accidentally revealed his real face after breaking the gold needle and gold thread seal, and was targeted because he was too good-looking. But Moon Face and the others who arrested Su Xiaomi should be members of the Zhou family.
Was that the organization that Zhou Jin was talking about right now? If so, it meant that it was in contact with the Secret Lotus Congregation and the Zhou family at the same time, and the ability it possessed may be more important than these two Jieyang local land dragons.
“The concert is coming to an end, I should go.”
Zhou Jin looked deeply at Wu Rong, as if he wanted to keep his facial features in mind.
“You……”
“Boom!”
A loud noise came from the door, and surging air flowed in, destroying the cohesive atmosphere of the concert scene. Zhou Jin’s figure disappeared from Wu Rong’s eyes in an instant, and then Zhou Jin’s singing on the stage stopped, because the backlash caused by the sudden stop made him cough up a mouthful of blood.
The door of the underground concert was broken. Wu Rong stepped out of the box with one step. The space inside the box was too small and the things were too cluttered, making it unsuitable to stretch his hands and feet out during fights. He left the box and walked out, the air rushing towards him carrying the scent of fresh plants, and rustling sounds came from all directions. Most of the venue lights were off, and there seemed to be vines, insects and snakes waiting for an opportunity in the darkness.
“Brother Rong, something’s wrong.”
Huang Mao and Bai Gu’s box was next to Wu Rong’s. They quickly came to Wu Rong’s side and looked around vigilantly, but Wu Rong’s eyes locked on the door first. His night vision ability was very good, and he could clearly see a budding lotus growing in the dark beside the door. The flower stems swayed without wind, holding two palm-sized pink and white flower petals, and at the root, there was a thick and undulating pink lotus root in the shape of a human.
No, it wasn’t a human-shaped lotus root.
Simply a real person.
Wu Rong saw that the ‘lotus root’ was wearing tight work clothes, and the blue-edged work card around his neck was tilted aside. A lotus flower grew out of his belly, and there was a sense of holiness and purity in all the weirdness. He was still alive, transformed into a monster, and living with that weird lotus flower.
“Amitabha.”
A hoarse and dry prayer sounded in the dark, revealing a terrifying aura. Wu Rong saw an old hand with only a thin layer of skin and bones stretching out from the door and picking the lotus flower. The movement was light and elegant, like Buddha holding a flower, with a captivating beauty. But when the flowers were picked off, the emerald green flower stems and the human-shaped lotus root quickly withered and shrank, turning into ashes within a second.
Disregarding where all the guards of the Zhou family had gone – or had they all turned into lotus root people? – the monk outside the door finally walked into the room. Different from the cruel and weird method just now, the old monk wore a black and red cassock, with a kind and amiable face, which made people feel like he wasn’t bad at all. But when he spoke, his hoarse, owl-like voice coupled with his kindly smiling face brought a greater sense of discord.
“Master Zhou rarely sings and so all the heroes gathered together.”
“It is a pity that I, the Secret Lotus Congregation, did not receive an invitation for such a grand event.”
Here comes the Secret Lotus Congregation’s challenger!
Behind Wu Rong, Huang Mao and Su Xiaomi made eye contact.
This visitor was up to no good!
Moreover, Brother Rong’s current situation was the most dangerous. He was the only one invited by Zhou Xinhong to come out, which was too conspicuous. The old monk’s attention must definitely be on Wu Rong!
Sure enough, the next second the old monk’s gaze turned, like a hunter that had locked on his prey.
“This poor monk’s Dharma name is Zhihui, so this must be Benefactor Wu Rong.”
The old monk smiled and looked kind and friendly: “The Zhou family has a close relationship with my Secret Lotus Congregation. This kind of grand occasion would never lack my Congregation. It must be that some unruly servants deliberately forgot to invite us, hoping to attract a conflict between the Zhou family and my Congregation. I hope you don’t mind if this poor monk oversteps and imposes a small punishment.”
This was putting on airs!
Right now, all the people in the box were invited by the Zhou family with a lot of money, and the Zhou family gave them benefits for this concert. In this case, if they sat back and watched the Secret Lotus Congregation go wild, they would lose their own reputation. It was time for the quick-tempered people to act now, but Wu Rong was unmoved. He inspected and looked at the old monk, and from him, Wu Rong vaguely noticed a subtle sense of disharmony.
It was intuition that there seemed to be something wrong with the person in front of him. Just like how even if a puppet was carved like a human, it was still a puppet in the end.
Wu Rong remained expressionless and silent, but the old monk’s smile deepened and his dry old face was full of wrinkles. Under the vigilant eyes of Huang Mao, Su Xiaomi and the others, he suddenly clasped his hands together and bowed to Wu Rong. Then his palms turned upwards, holding the lotus flower that bloomed from that person’s body in both hands, and made an unexpected gesture of dedicating it to Wu Rong.
“Benefactor Wu has a predestined relationship with my Dharma Congregation.”
The old monk’s tone was sincere and honest, his gaze was restrained, and he said respectfully to Wu Rong: “The position of the Secret Lotus Congregation’s Dharma Protector has been vacant for a long time, Dharma King Fei welcomes you, and awaits Wu Rong’s arrival.”
