Su Lai asked with some confusion, "I remember the Ghost King was already the highest realm for ghosts."
Da Hu also nodded, his face full of confusion, "As everyone knows, the Ghost King is already the highest realm."
Yu Daohen nodded, "That's right, the Ghost King is indeed the highest realm for ghosts, but I've read in a book that there's a realm above the Ghost King, and that is the Ghost Immortal."
"Ghost Immortal?"
Both Da Hu and Su Lai were somewhat puzzled; they had never heard the term "Ghost Immortal" before.
Yu Daohen continued, "Rather than calling it a Ghost Immortal, it's more like a Ghost Demon. If something like that goes wrong, it will inevitably be a great evil that plagues the region, and the consequences would be unimaginable then."
Ghostly energy shot straight into the sky for a hundred thousand miles, and no sunlight could penetrate the surroundings. This fellow was almost ready to advance.
Yu Daohen's expression was grim. If it truly emerged, the surrounding creatures would suffer immense devastation.
Yu Daohen recalled the Golden Toad in Xiaotun Village from before; that Golden Toad was likely this thing.
"Master Yu, since it's so dangerous, should we retreat first? We can't risk our lives for this money." Su Lai began to lose his nerve.
Da Hu beside him chimed in, "If that doesn't work, let's contact other sects and join forces to eliminate this thing."
After all, this thing was no joke, and it was indeed not worth it to risk oneself for a mere one hundred and fifty thousand.
Yu Daohen shook his head, a grin spreading across his face, "No, this is precisely the time when the ghost is at its weakest. We just need to follow the trail to capture it all at once."
Upon hearing this, both Da Hu and Su Lai's faces lit up with smiles. They were indeed no match for such a thing, but they were very capable of dealing with a weakened Ghost King.
Su Lai rubbed his hands together, ready to go in and deal with the evil spirit, "Master Yu, tell us what to do, we'll listen to you."
Da Hu beside him agreed, "That's right, the sooner we finish, the sooner we can rest. After all, if it drags on and that thing breaks through to Ghost Immortal, we'll be done for."
Yu Daohen nodded, thought for a moment, and said, "It's not good to act during the day. We'll deal with it at night."
Yu Daohen turned to He Dong, who had been silent all along, "Mr. He, you should head down the mountain first. We'll make arrangements here."
He Dong nodded, his face full of worry, "Alright, I'll head down the mountain first. Masters, please be careful."
After He Dong finished speaking, he hurried down the mountain. After all, as an ordinary person, staying here would only lead to his demise.
After He Dong left, Su Lai looked at Yu Daohen, "Master Yu, what do we do now? I think He Dong is a bit off. Let's deal with that evil spirit quickly to avoid future troubles."
Yu Daohen nodded, "I think so too, but there must be other ghosts guarding that cave. Rushing in will only alert them. Why don't we lure the snake out of its hole?"
"Lure the snake out of its hole?"
Da Hu and Su Lai looked bewildered. How could that evil spirit come out so easily in this situation?
Yu Daohen revealed a mysterious smile, "You guys wouldn't understand. That evil spirit is at a critical juncture. If its vital energy is insufficient for the tribulation, it won't be confident. It just so happens that these days are for sacrifices. He Jun has been rescued by us, so the evil spirit must be in great need of vital energy. As long as we find a way to lure it out and set up a trap, it will be as easy as picking something up."
When Su Lai and Da Hu heard this plan, they became excited. However, after they reacted, they became troubled. Where would they find a girl? He Jun must have already left Anxiang Village with her sister, and He Dong would not agree to his daughter taking risks.
Yu Daohen rolled his eyes, "This is not difficult. We can directly disguise ourselves as women and paste on a Yang-Enhancing Talisman. We won't have to worry about the evil spirit not coming."
A Yang-Enhancing Talisman is used to increase yang energy; it has no other effect.
Su Lai slapped his forehead, "Yes, this is indeed a good method! If we paste on a Yang-Enhancing Talisman, the evil spirit will definitely follow the scent. When we set up the Heavenly Gang and Earthly Fiend flags, won't that evil spirit be captured and at our mercy?"
"The problem is where to get women's clothes and wigs," Su Lai was troubled again.
Yu Daohen was a bit speechless, "This is not simple, we can just take something from He Dong's house."
Da Hu thought for a long time and suddenly realized a problem, "Then who will disguise as a woman?"
"Of course, it's Yu," Su Lai had just said one word when he abruptly stopped and looked at Da Hu.
Da Hu and Su Lai exchanged glances, both revealing mysterious smiles.
Yu Daohen looked at the two of them, both with mysterious smiles.
"What do you two mean? You're not going to make me dress as a woman, are you?" Yu Daohen said quickly.
"Master Yu, you're the most feminine here. It's not you, are we two big men?" Su Lai said with a wicked grin.
Upon hearing this, Yu Daohen became anxious, "What the hell, I'm a pure man, as pure as can be. You can ask around about Jiangdu's Master Yu."
Seeing Yu Daohen getting anxious, Su Lai quickly explained, "No, no, I mean Master Yu, you have such delicate features, almost like a woman, so you're the most suitable for cross-dressing."
Yu Daohen quickly retorted, "You're suitable too. Anyway, I'm not doing it."
Su Lai waved his hand, "My strength is the highest here, and my hands, having been in the water for so long, don't look like a woman's hands."
