When I was a Taoist

Chapter 563 Silence
"Senior Dragon Demon, the task you entrusted to me has been completed, should we talk about the conditions between us?"

As my voice fell, the darkness in front of our eyes suddenly twisted, and then the dragon demon walked out of it, looked at the bloody tree that had no owner with joy, nodded and smiled: "Yes , You guy actually took the Blood Yin Wood back. Don’t worry, I, the Dragon Demon, will do what I said. From today onwards, I will owe you a favor. If you encounter trouble in the future, feel free to come to me. As long as you don’t violate the According to the rules of Yin Division, I will definitely try my best to help you."

Hearing this, I cupped my hands towards the Dragon Demon and said, "Senior Dragon Demon, you don't have to wait until later, I need your help with something right now, and you must do it."

"I'll just say why you agreed to take on such a dangerous mission. You have to have your own calculations."

Dragon Demon was in a good mood, and didn't care about anything with me. He waved his hand and said briskly, "Just say what you want, as long as I can do it, I will help you."

I glanced at Fenghuang beside me, and asked in a deep voice: "Senior Dragon Demon, as far as I know, Phoenix has completed the last mission for you. According to your previous agreement, should she be set free?"

Dragon Demon didn't expect that I would suddenly ask this question. He nodded for a moment, frowned, and said, "Why, did Phoenix tell you something? That's right, we had such an agreement before. But now Yin Division is holding on tightly, if I let Phoenix go like this, if Yin Division finds out, not only will I not be able to eat, but even she will be hunted back by Yin Division, do you know what will happen?"

On the surface, what Long Mo said was grandiose, but Fenghuang and I could understand what he meant.Just like what Fenghuang said, she knows too many secrets about the Dragon Demon, and the latter will never let her leave easily.

Phoenix's face darkened in an instant, and then he smiled wryly, and said softly: "Forget it, all of this is my fate, and I still can't escape it. I appreciate your kindness, Lord Dragon Demon is very kind." It's precious, don't waste it on me."

The Dragon Demon also nodded, and his face became slightly gloomy: "Phoenix, bring the Blood Yin Wood back with me. As for our previous agreement, I will discuss it with you."

Seeing that Phoenix was about to follow the dragon demon back to that dark underworld, I gritted my teeth and hurriedly stopped him and said, "Senior Dragon Demon, you must count on what you say, even you are no exception. As long as you promise to set Phoenix free, The friendship between us will be wiped out, and I will work harder for you in the future, so why not do it."

The dragon demon snorted coldly, and said slightly sarcastically: "Boy, don't be fooled by the charmer. Ghosts are ghosts, and they will never deserve our pity and respect. You have to know what you are talking about today. Don't you know how important it is. If you give up my favor for a charming ghost, you will definitely regret it in the future."

However, I smiled and said sincerely: "Senior Dragon Demon, in my opinion, ghosts are just another form of human beings. They have good and bad, and I am only responsible for sealing the tyrannical ghosts. Phoenix nature is not bad, It also helped you and me a lot. I am willing to use this favor in exchange for her freedom."

"It's nonsense. A ghost is a ghost. Wherever there is good or bad, they should be thrown into the underworld and punished!"

The Dragon Demon sneered at my words, and said with a sneer: "Boy, you have to know your identity, some things are still up to me. Although my favor is precious, it is more important to me to let Phoenix go. In comparison, In other words, no one would let her go."

"Dazhi, you don't need to say any more. Lord Dragon Demon is right, a ghost is a ghost and will never be worthy of pity."

With tears in Fenghuang's eyes, he turned around and wanted to leave.I pulled her behind me, then looked at the dragon demon, and said slowly: "I know that if you let the Phoenix go, you will have to bear a lot of risks, Mr. Dragon Demon. If I am willing to offset this favor, and I can Complete the three commissions for you at any cost, can I get the freedom of the Phoenix? If you are still worried, I can take the Phoenix as a ghost servant, so that other ghosts in the underworld will not track the Phoenix. "

This time the dragon demon never refused again, but looked at me with an inexplicable meaning, and said, "Have you been confused by this charming ghost, and you can even ask for such a condition. You know, I The task assigned by the dragon demon is more difficult than today. If you really plan to do this, you must be mentally prepared."

"Once a word is said, it's hard to follow!" I nodded, without any regrets in my heart.

The Dragon Demon was silent for a long time, and then suddenly laughed, which made my heart tighten.But what he said next made my heart slowly relax: "You boy is such a freak. It's the first time I've seen someone willing to make such a big sacrifice for a ghost. Phoenix, this is something you cultivated in your previous life. I was lucky to meet this fool. Today I can let you go, but you know my temper. You know what you should do and what you should not do. If you let me know that you have done something out of line , you know your end."

Fenghuang excitedly bowed and said, "Thank you, Lord Dragon Demon, I will completely disappear like air in the future, and I won't cause you any trouble."

"Hmph, it's better, otherwise I won't even let this kid go."

The dragon demon nodded, then stretched out his hand and made a move towards the blood tower, and disappeared before our eyes with the blood tower.

After the dragon demon left, I couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief, wiped the cold sweat from my forehead, smiled at Fenghuang, and said, "I will definitely do what I promised you."

"Thank you."

Phoenix took a deep look at me, then suddenly bit her fingertips, a wisp of black soul floated out of her body, and then merged into mine.In an instant, I felt like I had a blood connection with Phoenix, and I had a feeling for each other.

"Actually, you don't need to do this." I smiled wryly and signed a contract with Fenghuang, but I was like a villain taking advantage of others' danger.

"My life is yours. If I don't do this, the guilt in my heart will never be healed."

Fenghuang smiled slightly, then stepped forward and hugged me, and said softly, "Thank you."

At this time, the first ray of sunshine in the sky finally tore through the night and fell to the earth.The faint light shone on me and Phoenix, as quiet as a pair of lovers who have not seen each other for a long time.
