Brother Chun looked at Lin Chen beside him and said with admiration, "Master Lin, you were amazing just now. With the Blood Qi True Flame out, any ghost that touched it died, and any that encountered it turned to dust."
"No need for flattery!"
Lin Chen glanced at Brother Chun and said calmly, "What I said counts. I don't lie!"
"Uh... I'm a ghost now..." Brother Chun chuckled dryly.
"Hm?" Lin Chen's expression darkened.
"I was human!" Brother Chun quickly corrected himself.
"Although what I say definitely counts, however..." Lin Chen looked at Brother Chun beside him and said indifferently, "I remember you previously said you'd bring me to negotiate with the bosses of several regions, but now, I only see your boss and his group!"
"This..."
Brother Chun's face changed drastically. Feeling Lin Chen's gaze, his mind raced, and he then said, "Master, I know Little Gan, who is under the boss of Fengshan District. He will definitely know the whereabouts of the Fengshan District boss's lair!"
"Alright, but don't forget about the bosses of the other regions!" Lin Chen looked at Brother Chun.
"Yes, yes!" Brother Chun nodded repeatedly, secretly relieved. He had no doubt that if he had answered incorrectly, he might have ended up like his boss, judging by the look in Lin Chen's eyes just now.
Under Brother Chun's guidance, Lin Chen drove towards Little Gan's residence. While driving, Lin Chen checked his gains from the System.
"Origin: ."
"Reinforceable Martial Arts: Phoenix Undying Body First Layer (6/9), Dragon Roar Iron Shirt First Layer (5/9)."
After killing those bandit ghosts, Lin Chen gained over 40,000 Origin points, truly becoming rich overnight. He unhesitatingly chose to reinforce his skills twice each for the Phoenix Undying Body and the Dragon Roar Iron Shirt.
The Blood Qi True Flame and Blood Qi True Dragon in his dantian rapidly grew stronger, and Lin Chen's physical fitness and strength also improved at an astonishing rate. In the blink of an eye, Lin Chen's strength and abilities had undergone a complete transformation.
"Seventh Order, I've definitely reached the Seventh Order this time!"
Feeling the Blood Qi in his dantian, which was like a true phoenix and a true dragon, Lin Chen couldn't help but smile. His current strength was not weak, even in the entire cultivation world.
"Corpse Demon Elder, if you don't come looking for me, I'll prepare to come looking for you!" A sharp glint flashed in Lin Chen's eyes. He hadn't forgotten about the Corpse Demon Elder, who was currently the cultivator putting the most pressure on him.
However, now that the Corpse Demon Elder wasn't coming to him, he was preparing to go find the other party. As long as he could completely eliminate him, he wouldn't have to worry about the other party secretly causing trouble!
"Please don't fail!" Brother Chun watched Lin Chen, who occasionally revealed a smile, and felt a chill run down his spine. He could only pray that finding Little Gan wouldn't go wrong this time, otherwise, he might not see tomorrow's moon.
After driving for about half an hour, Lin Chen, led by Brother Chun, arrived at a dilapidated civilian house. Brother Chun fiddled around a ceramic pot next to the house, and a figure emerged from it.
"Xiao Chun?" The figure was clearly surprised to see Brother Chun, then frowned, "Why are you here?"
Brother Chun looked at Little Gan in front of him and hurriedly said, "Brother Gan, you know our boss's temper. I didn't complete the task he assigned me and got beaten up badly, so I want to defect to Brother Li."
"You want to change your identity?" Little Gan frowned and looked at Lin Chen beside him, "What's going on here?"
"This is my meeting gift for Brother Li. Tender skin, full of yang energy, definitely a good catch!" Brother Chun quickly introduced when he heard this.
Little Gan sized up Lin Chen and then nodded, "I can help introduce you. Whether Brother Li accepts you or not is not up to me!"
"Yes, yes, with Brother Gan's help, this will surely work. Everyone knows that Brother Gan is Brother Li's most trusted person," Brother Chun said obsequiously.
Little Gan seemed pleased by this and nodded with a smile, "You've got good taste, kid. Follow me!"
Led by Little Gan, one person and two ghosts headed deeper into the wasteland. In a moment, they saw a brightly lit, bustling tavern standing by the roadside.
Creak~
Pushing the door open, the entire tavern was filled with smoke and noise. Some were playing cards, some were smoking and drinking; it was lively, but the patrons were not humans, but ghosts!
"You two stay here. I'll go report to the boss!" Little Gan glanced at Brother Chun, then stepped forward and began talking to a fierce-looking man with a scar.
The scarred man glanced at Lin Chen, then walked into the tavern, clearly going to find the so-called boss.
"Is this the Little Gan you called the most trusted?" Lin Chen glanced at Brother Chun beside him.
Brother Chun quickly explained, "Master, that's not important. What's important is that we're here, isn't it?"
Lin Chen nodded noncommittally. Compared to the Origin points he was about to obtain, other matters were indeed insignificant!
After waiting for a moment, a man in a black suit, wearing sunglasses, with a cigar in his mouth, and two female ghosts on his arms, was led by the scarred man from the back of the tavern.
"Holy crap..."
Seeing this, Lin Chen couldn't help but be stunned. This guy was too much of a connoisseur. Even a living boss might not live as luxuriously as him.
Lin Chen looked at Brother Chun beside him with disdain, "Xiao Chun, your boss's status pales in comparison to this guy!"
"Master, Brother Li has access to resources in the city that we in the mountains can't compare to," Brother Chun sighed, his eyes filled with envy. Since becoming a ghost, he hadn't even touched a woman's hand.
At least his boss could touch women, while Brother Li had two at his side. A ghost's life like this was worth it, even if he died!
Ptooey~
Brother Chun shook his head inwardly. Brother Li was going to die, but he wanted to live. Following Master, he was afraid he wouldn't find a woman? He had seen Master's strength, at least Fourth Order, possibly even Fifth Order cultivator!
Seeing Brother Li emerge, Little Gan quickly stepped forward and said, "Boss, this is my friend Xiao Chun. He used to follow Silly Biao, but now he wants to come under you. This pretty boy is his meeting gift!"
"Not bad!" Brother Li sized up Lin Chen, then looked at Brother Chun, "Xiao Chun, is it? Follow me from now on, and you'll have the best of everything. That Silly Biao is truly stupid, guarding Old Dragon Mountain. What era is this? Still relying on the mountain and the water?"
"Yes, yes, Brother Li is right!" Brother Chun nodded repeatedly, looking fawning, then continued, "Actually, I came here today with something important to tell you, Brother Li."
"Something important? What is it?" Brother Li asked curiously.
"Let me tell Brother Li!" Just then, Lin Chen suddenly spoke, "Xiao Chun wants to tell you that Silly Biao and his group have been wiped out!"
"What!"
As soon as these words were spoken, Brother Li and the scarred man beside him changed their expressions. Although they looked down on Silly Biao and those country bumpkins, the strength of Silly Biao's group was not to be underestimated!
Now Lin Chen was telling them that Silly Biao and his group had been wiped out, how could Brother Li and the others not be surprised and shocked?
"The Demon Suppression Division?" Brother Li's expression darkened. He knew that he had parted ways with Silly Biao just over an hour ago. If Silly Biao's group was wiped out so quickly, he couldn't think of any other possibility besides the Demon Suppression Division.
