    "Wearing the spirit."

    "Zhou Yey vomited a special, ancient and mysterious sound from his mouth."

    As the voice fell, a beam of turquoise light enveloped Grandma.

    "Eh..."

    "Grandma, who had been silent for a long time, suddenly came to life under the light, and uttered a soft sigh unconsciously."

    [Yuning, secret method to nourish souls by demons of the underworld.]

    [Tongming, the secret method for communicating between the world of the living and the underworld.]

    At the same time, Zhou Yey suddenly had a deeper understanding of his two skills in his mind.

    No wonder the woman's head before said there was something attractive about Zhou Yey.

    Now it seems that it must be the influence of the skill [Yunling].

    Taking advantage of the fact that Grandma was still asleep, Zhou Yey took out the sword fringe given by Bai Lu and tried the skill [Tongming] again.

    Another mysterious whirlpool appeared in front of Zhou Yey, following the sound of an ancient and mysterious tonality.

    "Boom! Boom!"

    "Oh my!"

    But what Zhou Yey didn't expect was that.

    As the whirlpool appeared, two different voices suddenly came through.

    The first one was similar to the sound of an engine starting up a motor vehicle.

    The latter was a loud exclamation of a Chinese national essence.

    Next second.

    A huge head suddenly emerged from the whirlpool.

    On the twisted and hideous face, there was a melancholy color that made people's skin crawl.

    "Why is it you again, little demon?"

    "I finally caught up with that damned ghostly carriage, only to be mysteriously summoned here by you. Damnit!"

    The person who appeared was Zhou Yey's old acquaintance.

    Their first encounter was in the corridor of the psychiatric hospital.

    The second encounter was on the national highway last night.

    Now, it's the third time!

    "Hmm? It's not supposed to be that way. How can you be human?"

    "Could it be an awakener? No, it can't be. Maybe a Qi Refiner? No, that's not it either; there's no true essence in your body! Could it be a half-demon? Sniff, nope, there's no demon aura in the air."

    "What an oddity, what are you?"

    The demon originally appeared with a melancholic expression, but as soon as he recognized Zhou Yey's face, his expression turned odd.

    The massive white figure even spun around Zhou Yey as the center, turning several circles in place.

    "Hey, you've run into a ghost again! Hmph, and it's still a blood-sucking little ghost! interesting!"

    The demon's attention quickly shifted to the dark figure in Zhou Yey's hand, and he looked at Zhou Yey with a face full of delight.

    "What are you going to do?"

    Zhou Yey is no longer afraid of the demon at this moment.

    Especially those few sentences the demon said at first, they destroyed Zhou Yey's image of "high and mighty" for demons.

    "Well, little girl, would you like to make a deal with this officer?"

    The demon's giant hands rubbed each other, looking at Zhou Yey with a face full of courteousness.

    "What deal?"

    Zhou Yey actually guessed what the demon wanted.

    But when it comes to deals, it's definitely necessary for both parties to agree on the price in advance.

    Since she doesn't know the value of the thing in her hand, she naturally acts like a naive one.

    "Naturally, the deal is about the ghost in your hand!"

    "If I'm not mistaken, this little ghost has absorbed a lot of essence, and it can definitely be considered an invaluable treasure!"

    The demon's huge eyes moved around, revealing an unbridled greed.

    "Well, what do you want to trade with me? Just so you know, I'm not interested in mere trash!"

    Zhou Yey assumed a high-and-mighty attitude, retracting the little ghost in his hand slightly.

    She is still unsure about the demon's attitude.

    If this demon really wants to seize it, she might not be able to hold on to it.

    "Haha, little girl, this thing in your hand has no value at all. Who are you trying to act big with?"

    The demon seemed to see through Zhou Yey's weakness, straightening his posture, and his towering figure almost pierced the ceiling.

    "Is that so?"

    Zhou Yey smiled softly and her posture also became erect.

    Now is the stage of mutual probing; she can't show any sign of weakness.

    The demon stared at Zhou Yey for a long time, shaking his head and nodding at random.

    When Zhou Yey was starting to get impatient, the demon finally spoke up again, "Why not tell this officer what you want?"

    "I..."

    Zhou Yey suddenly became silent.

    To be honest, she really doesn't know what she should ask for now.

    If she said she wanted "Immortal artifacts," it would be fine if the demon understood, but if he didn't, it would make Zhou Yey look very naive.

    Moreover, from Bai Lu's words, Zhou Yey also knew some things about the underworld.

    Who knows which faction the demon in front of her belongs to?

    If this demon belonged to Bai Lu's faction, wouldn't Zhou Yey be stepping into a minefield by suddenly asking for "Immortal artifacts"?

    Conversely, it is also true.

    This is also the reason why Zhou Yey didn't take out Bai Lu's sword fringe.

    Before figuring out the demon's stance, Zhou Yey didn't want to show any relationship with either side.

    She only wants benefits!

    "Tsk, you're a tough nut. If it weren't for the fact that I'm afraid of you ruining everything, I don't have the patience to play house with you."

    "Since you can communicate with the underworld and you often encounter ghosts, let's make a trade with this."

    "Whaa, the demon pulled out a thick chain with his big hand and easily retrieved it from his stomach."

    "This is the hook soul lock of the underworld. It not only can seal off these guys' movements, but also can be used as a weapon."

    "How about it? Will you trade?"

    The demon shook the hook soul lock in his hand.

    The rattling sound of the chain continued.

    Boom!

    Once again, Zhou Yey heard the familiar, ancient sound in his ear.

    Her eyes also showed a red thread that perfectly connected to the hook soul lock.

    It was obvious that the hook soul lock in front was also an item of divine essence.

    In Zhou Yey's eyes, divine essence items represent lifespan!

    "Trade!"

    Zhou Yey didn't dilly-dally; after all, she didn't know what use the little ghost would be to her.

    Since the demon is willing to exchange, it's better to exchange.

    After all, she only had less than 100 days of life left.

    For her, nothing is more beneficial than lifespan!

    "Okay! Let's trade!"

    "If you ever encounter such little ghosts in the future, please remember to contact me!"

    "Here, this is my token. As long as you perform the communication skill to the underworld in front of this token, I can sense your summon."

    The demon showed great joy, happily pulling out a small wooden token made of wood.

    Zhou Yey took the small wooden token and examined it carefully.

    The small wooden token was simple in style, with a back carved with a ferocious beast that looked formidable but whose name was unknown.

    The front, engraved with intricate patterns, and in the center of the pattern was a clear "You" character.
