Early the next morning, in the secret room of Xiaoguifeng.

Zhou Qingxuan woke up faintly, only to feel that her body was stiff and sore, and there was a sharp pain like tearing from the sea of ​​​​consciousness.

"The magic power is imprisoned..."

Her innocent face and skirt were stained with blood, and she lay on the cold floor.

Subconsciously, I touched my waist, only to find that the storage bag and the pet bag were missing.

After a while, the door to the secret room opened.

A jade-like man in white clothes passed by the girl in a yellow skirt and sat cross-legged on a futon not far away.

Zhou Qingxuan raised her head and stared at the familiar man's face. His dark eyes were unwavering.

"Congratulations to Lord Gu Emperor, you got what you wanted."

Zhou Qingxuan forced a smile, supported the ground with her hands, and struggled to get up.

As a result, injuries occurred.

His legs and knees fell to the ground with a "thud" and turned into a prostrate and half-kneeling position.

Lu Changan looked at the pure and delicate daughter of the Zhou family, who was in a state of embarrassment, with an expression of awe and flattery.

Once upon a time, when he was in the Qi-refining stage, he asked to see Zhou Qingxuan, who was in the foundation-building stage. He regarded himself as a junior, was respectful, and could not disobey.

"Haha, did Miss Zhou and Baisu Soul Gu have this kind of relationship before?"

Lu Changan chuckled with a teasing expression.

"Aren't you..."

Zhou Qingxuan's pretty face was shocked and she couldn't believe it.

"Miss Zhou was mistaken. Lu was not controlled by the soul Gu. Due to his special talent, Lu could barely compete with it and had a certain degree of autonomy over his body."

Lu Changan said slowly.

"So, the person communicating with the little girl now is Mr. Lu Daoyou himself?"

Zhou Qingxuan was shocked and uncertain, staring at him with her pretty eyes.

"That's right."

After receiving an affirmative answer, the girl in the yellow dress who was lying on the ground turned red and showed an expression of shame and embarrassment.

Previously, Zhou Qingxuan and Soul Gu were in a symbiotic state, but Soul Gu took over the dominant position in her body and suppressed her obediently.

If one has high attainments in realm and soul path, or has special magical powers, one can theoretically subdue the soul Gu and make it work for oneself.

As a beast-controlling genius, Zhou Qingxuan knows this.

She once tried, hoping to gain partial control over her body, but unfortunately she failed.

Lu Changan was targeted by the soul Gu and tried to stay. He was obviously not an ordinary monk, and he definitely had more potential and value than Zhou Qingxuan.

Lu Changan was able to do this and hide it so deeply that it even exceeded Soul Gu's expectations.

"Friend Lu Dao, what are you going to do with the little girl?"

After a while, Zhou Qingxuan calmed down, sat cross-legged on the ground, and smiled.

Lu Changan said: "According to Senior Soul Gu's plan: after parasitizing Lu, prepare to activate the restriction in Miss Zhou's sea of ​​consciousness. This will eliminate hidden dangers and keep secrets!"

Hearing this, Zhou Qingxuan's heart trembled.

It is reasonable for Soul Gu to abandon her and find a more valuable target.

Her previous host, Chen Fuhai, died in the chaos of the Qingming Secret Realm.

"We have known each other for many years. Mr. Lu negotiated with Senior Soul Gu to gain a chance for Miss Zhou."

Lu Changan explained the reason.

Beforehand, he had also considered simply pretending to be a soul Gu to directly intimidate and enslave Zhou Qingxuan.

However, Lu Changan does not have the various abilities of Baisu Soul Gu, so it is easy for him to reveal his secrets.

Once he does this, Zhou Qingxuan will demonize him and lose hope for future survival.

Even if he surrenders on the surface, he is secretly harboring evil intentions and may do things that will destroy both the jade and the stone.

At this moment, Lu Changan's established identity was on the same level as Soul Gu, allowing Zhou Qingxuan to see a glimmer of hope.

"Qingxuan is deeply grateful for Fellow Daoist Lu's life-saving grace and will never forget it."

Zhou Qingxuan knelt down and thanked him.

"Qingxuan is willing to be a maid and a concubine, and asks fellow Daoist Lu to help her."

Zhou Qingxuan was deeply afraid of the restrictions within the sea of ​​consciousness.

Even if you escape by chance, it will automatically explode when the time limit is reached.

"Miss Zhou is a genius that the Zhou family has rarely seen in a century. She is expected to become an elixir and has a noble status. Lu does not dare to offend her."

Lu Changan smiled.

"Lu will have to pay an unknown price to protect Miss Zhou. Here, we might as well make a deal."

"Please give me some advice, fellow Taoist Lu."

Zhou Qingxuan breathed a sigh of relief.

Compared to the mysterious and terrifying Soul Gu, it has a greater chance of survival when it falls into Lu Changan's hands.

"If Mr. Lu can form a pill in the future, I am sure that you will be free. However, Miss Zhou must do the following two things:"

"First, Miss Zhou swore an oath of inner demons and kept secret about the soul Gu inhabiting Mr. Lu."

"Secondly, for the next sixty years, Miss Zhou will obey Lu's instructions and provide all the help within her ability for the safety of my cultivators and the resources they need."

Lu Changan stated his conditions.

At this stage, it would be risky for him to kill Zhou Qingxuan, so he could only run away and flee to another country.

The inner demon's oath, coupled with the double insurance of the ban on Gu insects, allowed Zhou Qingxuan to keep the secret and eliminate Lu Changan's worries.

At the same time, there will be one more maid with fake elixir combat power.

In other words, he is an "all-round tool man" who obeys the call and provides resources and protection, as well as certain services.

Zhou Qingxuan represents not only an individual, but the beast-controlling Zhou family behind him is a family of immortal cultivators who dominate the Liang Kingdom.

…

Zhou Qingxuan thought for a moment and agreed to the conditions.

"Qingxuan believes in Lu Daoyou's character and will keep his promise."

She speculated that she was of value to Lu Changan and that her life would not be in danger in the short term.

Zhou Qingxuan saw the hope of life and the opportunity to fight for it.

Later, Zhou Qingxuan made an oath to the inner demon in person.

"Miss Zhou has suffered."

Lu Changan came over, resolved the restrictions on Zhou Qingxuan, and returned the storage bag and spiritual pet bag to her.

Zhou Qingxuan recovered her magic power, stood up and saluted:

"From now on, fellow Daoist Lu can treat Qingxuan as his slave."

"There is no need for Miss Zhou. Don't expose your secrets in front of outsiders."

Lu Changan reminded.

"Qingxuan knows."

Zhou Qingxuan smiled brightly and was surprised by Lu Changan's politeness.

Nowadays, she is quite the fish on the chopping board.

Lu Changan could obviously get whatever he wanted, but he did not reveal his so-called "true face" and behaved in a rude and angry manner.

Zhou Qingxuan felt a little disappointed.

This means that it is difficult to find a breakthrough in Lu Changan.

In addition to her background and strength, youth and beauty are also weapons she can use.

"I will arrange a guest room for you and nurse your injuries first."

Lu Changan ordered.

"Excuse me, Fellow Daoist Lu."

Not long after, Zhou Qingxuan settled in the guest room of Xiaoguifeng.

"I forgot to tell Miss Zhou that although Lu can't learn the ban on Gu, Senior Soul Gu has shared the method of controlling the ban with me."

Before leaving, Lu Changan sent a message to remind him.
