"Oh? Zhou Jiang is here?"
Hearing of Zhou Jiang's arrival, Zhao Long narrowed his eyes, a trace of killing intent appearing.
He truly had no good feelings towards the people of Ghost Spirit Sect, let alone an envoy from them.
Given the nature of the Ghost Spirit Sect members, only core figures would dare to operate openly under their sect's banner.
However, the most crucial matter now was to ascertain the current stronghold of the Ghost Spirit Sect.
If his identity were revealed, the Ghost Spirit Sect members would undoubtedly go into hiding immediately.
The members of the Ghost Spirit Sect were most adept at mystification and all sorts of concealment.
If they were determined to hide, it would be impossible for him, or even an immortal descending to earth, to track them down.
"Let him in. Junior Sister, please excuse yourself for a moment!"
Having figured out the critical point, Zhao Long turned to Lu Yuyan beside him and instructed her.
Years of hardship had changed his appearance so much that only those close to him would recognize him.
And that Zhou Jiang had never seen him before, so he could now skillfully pry information out of him!
"Alright."
Hearing Zhao Long's words, Lu Yuyan nodded in agreement.
She understood perfectly what her senior brother intended to do.
After all, it was high time to settle the score for the Ghost Spirit Sect's years of targeting them.
Not long after, Zhou Jiang was led into the living room by Lin Fenfeng.
Indeed, upon seeing Zhao Long, Zhou Jiang felt that the person before him looked somewhat familiar, yet he couldn't recall where he had seen him.
"Envoy Zhou Jiang of the Ghost Spirit Sect, greetings, senior!"
After a brief assessment of Zhao Long, Zhou Jiang cupped his fists and greeted him proactively.
Although he was unaware of the man's identity, he could sense that the cultivation of the person before him was far superior to his own.
The ethereal aura emanating from him was truly profound.
He had only ever felt such a sensation from the current Sect Master of the Ghost Spirit Sect.
Without a doubt, this senior's cultivation must be comparable to his sect master's.
There was no loss in addressing him as "senior" now.
"Envoy Zhou, there's no need for such formalities."
Zhao Long waved his hand, a slight smile on his face.
"I heard from my disciple that you wish to invite us to join the Ghost Spirit Sect?"
Then, without further pleasantries, Zhao Long directly posed the question that concerned him most.
Whether it was the Ghost Spirit Sect or the recently rampant Song Ziyang, their methods were similar to those of the Ghost Spirit Sect.
He suspected that Song Ziyang was definitely a cultivator from the Ghost Spirit Sect!
After all, having grown up in a cultivation family, he was quite knowledgeable about ancient texts.
The soul-devouring technique that Song Ziyang used previously was a skill exclusive to the cultivators of the Ghost Spirit Sect within the entire cultivation world!
"Yes, senior!"
"Our Ghost Spirit Sect is now experiencing unprecedented development, rarely seen in a thousand years."
"If a senior of your profound cultivation were to join the Ghost Spirit Sect, it would be adding wings to a tiger!"
"Moreover, once our Ghost Spirit Sect unifies the Dragon Kingdom, you would be a meritorious minister!"
Zhou Jiang appeared very confident, assuring Zhao Long.
In his estimation, Zhao Long was at least a third-grade Nascent Soul realm expert, possessing such an unfathomable demeanor.
In the past, he would have been hesitant to treat a third-grade Nascent Soul expert so casually.
But things were different now, the Grand Elder of the Ghost Spirit Sect had returned!
Furthermore, after a period of cultivation, the Grand Elder had directly reached the mid-stage Nascent Soul realm.
Such a cultivation base was truly astonishing in the entire cultivation world!
Mid-stage Nascent Soul realm cultivation meant at least a fifth-grade Nascent Soul.
How many cultivators in the entire Dragon Kingdom could reach such a level?
And most importantly, their Grand Elder's cultivation technique was miraculous and still had room for improvement!
As long as he was given enough vital energy, reaching the late-stage Nascent Soul realm was not impossible!
It was precisely because of this that his tone was so confident when facing a powerful individual like Zhao Long.
"Oh? The Ghost Spirit Sect, unifying the Dragon Kingdom? Are you sure?"
Hearing Zhou Jiang's words, Zhao Long immediately frowned, his expression filled with disbelief.
Others might not know the current strength of the Ghost Spirit Sect, but he had a rough idea.
The Sect Master was at most a fifth-grade Nascent Soul, similar in cultivation to himself.
However, similarly, the sect leaders of the hidden sects in the Dragon Kingdom were also around this cultivation level.
Under such circumstances, the Ghost Spirit Sect's ambition to unify the cultivation world was simply wishful thinking!
Given the Ghost Spirit Sect's actions in the cultivation world over the years, if their mountain gate's location were exposed, countless people would come knocking.
At that time, let alone unifying the cultivation world, even preserving their mountain gate would be an extremely difficult task!
"Hahahaha, it seems the senior has some understanding of our Ghost Spirit Sect!"
Seeing Zhao Long's disbelief, Zhou Jiang did not get angry.
If someone had told him a month ago that the Ghost Spirit Sect could unify the Dragon Kingdom's cultivation world, he wouldn't have believed it himself.
But now, things were different; fortunes had turned!
He estimated that the Grand Elder was about to reach the sixth-grade Nascent Soul realm?
With one more step, he could reach the seventh-grade Nascent Soul!
Such cultivation, even in ancient times, would be considered a true master.
What was so impossible about unifying the Dragon Kingdom's cultivation world?
"Senior, now, our Ghost Spirit Sect's Grand Elder has returned!"
"With the Grand Elder and the Sect Master working together, no one in the entire cultivation world can defeat them!"
At this point, Zhou Jiang's face was full of pride.
It was as if the invincible one in the world was none other than himself!
"Oh? The Grand Elder of the Ghost Spirit Sect?"
Hearing Zhou Jiang's statement, Zhao Long's brow furrowed even more subtly.
It seemed his guess was correct; that Song Ziyang must be from the Ghost Spirit Sect.
Otherwise, he wouldn't be using those heretical techniques!
"Indeed, senior. Our Grand Elder is a powerful being who has lived from ancient times."
"He has now reached the sixth-grade Nascent Soul realm and is on the verge of advancing to the seventh grade."
"If the senior joins the Ghost Spirit Sect at this time, you might even receive guidance from the Grand Elder!"
Zhou Jiang narrowed his eyes, his expression full of confidence.
