You are all immortal cultivators, how dare you challenge my heavenly tribulation?

Chapter 174: Your hostage operation would be very explosive even in Russia [asking for monthly votes and recommendation tickets]

When Fang Lei realized that Hong Quan might be with Hong Gui, he did not waste a moment and rushed over there without stopping.

But as the saying goes, plans cannot keep up with changes. That’s probably the case, right?

Fang Lei's original plan was to use the three groups of people to attract attention, while he would sneak into the statue.

But when he found out that the other party's target was the little girl, he changed his method.

If you ask the reason, isn't Hong Quan the one who can help Fang Lei bring up the little girl?
At the very least, I can give him some information...

Now, all we need to do is pry open his mouth!
***
But how to pry open the mouth?
This guy is so patient, there is a high probability that he is a tough guy.

blah blah-

Suddenly, footsteps were heard behind me.

But when Fang Lei heard the voice, he was too lazy to turn around. Sure enough, a familiar musk came soon.

Immediately, a head appeared on Fang Lei's shoulder. It was Ai Rumeng.

Ai Rumeng looked at the Golden Body Realm in front of her and whispered to Fang Lei in a teasing tone -

"You tied it so professionally, you don't want to use it on me, do you? Let me make it clear, I only accept ribbons, nothing else!!"

As expected of Ai Rumeng, just one sentence can easily make people think about a lot of things.

But who is Fang Lei? He choked back with just one sentence -

"How many stones are under your feet? With your height, you shouldn't be able to reach my shoulders!"

Ai Rumeng's mouth twitched. Why did this man argue with her all day long?

He walked to Fang Lei's side unhappily, looked at Hong Quan in the Thunder Prison, and asked Fang Lei with a hint of speculation -

"You want to know something from him, right?"

Although it was just a guess, Ai Rumeng's tone was very firm.

"So obvious?" Fang Lei was surprised. He hadn't done anything yet!
"It's extremely obvious. By the way, the other party probably noticed it, so he will probably be very tight-lipped later, and you may not be able to ask anything~"

Ai Rumeng turned her head and looked at Fang Lei with a smile on her face, as if she wanted to see Fang Lei in trouble.

But it didn't happen. Fang Lei was still looking at Hong Quan in the thunder prison thoughtfully.

Ai Rumeng, who didn't see Fang Lei's embarrassment, didn't care and changed the subject naturally.

"Of course, you can beg me to help you! Remember, call me Miss!"

His tone was excited, and even though he didn't look at Ai Rumeng, Fang Lei could feel Ai Rumeng's excitement.

Fang Lei turned his head to look at Ai Rumeng, then naturally stretched out his right hand and touched Ai Rumeng's cheek, stroking it a few times.

When Ai Rumeng tilted her head to enjoy it, he pulled the flesh on her face a few times, then said:

"I have a solution, no need!"

He immediately stepped into the thunder prison, leaving Ai Rumeng, who had gradually come to her senses, standing there in a daze.

It was unknown how long it had passed before Xing Honglong and others gradually approached, and the embroiderer bowed and called out.

"Alas, everyone!"

Ai Rumeng waved her hand and said:
"No need for that. Master Hao seems to have a solution. Just wait!"

After saying this, Ai Rumeng looked at the bowing [Hong Gui] beside him and asked in confusion, "What's wrong with him?"

Luo Tianwei also had a puzzled expression, obviously she had never seen such an operation before.

The embroiderer said nonchalantly: "It's nothing, it seems like she recognized her father!"

*****
After Fang Lei entered the Thunder Prison, he saw Hong Quan's fearless expression.

He knew that what Ai Rumeng said was right. The other party really knew what he wanted to know from him.

I simply got straight to the point and said:

"Will you tell me directly, or let me ask?"

Hong Quan said nothing, not even bothering to move his eyes, and had no intention of speaking at all.

"Ha——" Fang Lei sighed first, then said, "Okay!"

zizi——

Countless thunders rushed directly towards Hong Quan along the thunder chains. Although Hong Quan's body was trembling, he still gritted his teeth and said nothing.

"Do you think I need to pry something out of your mouth, so I don't dare to kill you?" Fang Lei asked.

Hong Quan remained unmoved, but his expression told Fang Lei that this was what he thought.

"Your idea is probably correct!"

Fang Lei nodded in agreement.

After saying that, he ignored everything and closed his eyes to rest.

It was Fang Lei's nonchalant look that put a lot of psychological pressure on Hong Quan. He was not afraid of Fang Lei's interrogation, but he was afraid that Fang Lei would not interrogate him according to the conventional routine.

……

On the other side, Ai Rumeng looked at the embroiderer beside her, with confusion in her eyes.

As if she knew Ai Rumeng's doubts, the embroiderer took the initiative to explain:

"My dear sir, what Mr. Hao said is right." The embroiderer could tell at a glance that Hong Quan was a tough guy.

"For this kind of person, you must find his weakness, that is his only lifeline!"

"Master Hao should be thinking about where this person's vital point is right now!"

The embroiderer continued.

"Where is the soul-searching technique?" Ai Rumeng suddenly interrupted and asked.

"It's not safe!" The embroiderer pointed out the biggest reason why Fang Lei didn't use the soul-searching technique.

Ai Rumeng understood instantly that it was not safe! She then looked towards the Thunder Prison.

**
After a moment, Fang Lei opened his eyes, thought of something, and turned his gaze to look at the [Hong Gui] outside the thunder prison.

However, when Hong Quan noticed that Fang Lei was looking at [Hong Gui], he felt a panic in his heart.

So he took the initiative to use all his willpower and attention to resist the thunder punishment, and at first glance it seemed that he was indeed resisting the thunder punishment normally.

But this kind of normal is abnormal!
Don't forget, Fang Lei caught Hong Quan by keeping an eye on [Hong Gui]!

Not only Hong Quan noticed Fang Lei's gaze, but also Ai Rumeng outside.

Ai Rumeng imagined that Fang Lei caught Hong Quan by staring at [Hong Gui].

She immediately understood something, so she looked at [Hong Gui] and said:
"You go in!"

[Hong Gui] looked at Xing Honglong, Hu Qianzhong, Xiu Niang, and Luo Tianwei in turn.

When he found that none of them had any objection to this matter, his face twitched and he walked in with his head hung.

But before going in, Xing Honglong was confused but still spoke:
"Come on, behave better!"

[Hong Gui] paused, then walked inside.

**
When [Hong Gui] came in, although Hong Quan did not show any abnormality, Fang Lei smiled slightly.

Fang Lei pointed at [Hong Gui] and said slowly:
"I'm quite curious. This guy is an evil ghost with all five elements. How did he let another flood ghost take over his consciousness?"

As soon as he opened his mouth, he bombed. Hong Quan's pupils shrank. "That guy is timid, greedy, cowardly, lustful, and afraid of death. How can he squeeze out the consciousness of the five elements evil ghost?"

"What's more, he is a Five Elements Evil Ghost that has transformed into a Five Elements Ghost King!"

Hong Quan did not answer. Fang Lei smiled and continued:

"Of course you wouldn't be curious, because this is probably something you did secretly!"

After saying this, Hong Quan still had no expression on his face, but [Hong Gui], with his head hung down, seemed to understand something.

*
pat-

Fang Lei snapped his fingers, and then he saw several chains appear in the void, directly binding [Hong Gui] in place, and these chains exuded the same aura as Hong Quan's chains.

But [Hong Gui] still stood there in a daze, doing nothing.

He also heard the conversation between Fang Lei and Hong Quan, and suddenly understood why his main consciousness was occupied by Hong Gui.

He once wondered why a guy whose mind was filled with trembling occupied the main position.

"You took great pains to let Hong Gui occupy the main consciousness. It seems that you have some plan! And you used Hong Gui's hand to complete the plan!"

Fang Lei deduced this very easily.

[Moreover, it must be Hong Gui who possesses the power of the Five Elements Ghost King! ] Fang Lei thought to himself.

Since it has been speculated before that what Hong Quan wants is the death of Hong Gui, then the death of Hong Gui is Hong Quan's goal.

But now, when Hong Gui possessed the power of the Five Elements Ghost King, Hong Quan had changed.

He did not kill the Five Elements Ghost King in Hong Gui's body. Instead, he took great pains to make Hong Gui the main consciousness, and even tried to break the formation to rescue Hong Gui.

This undoubtedly shows that after Hong Quan discovered the existence of the Five Elements Evil Ghosts, he also changed his plan midway.

Then, what Fang Lei has to do is very simple——

"Then I will kill Hong Gui and let the Five Elements Ghost King completely occupy this body! What do you think?"

As soon as Fang Lei finished speaking, countless thunders immediately surrounded [Hong Gui], ready to strike, while Hong Quan was still pretending to be dead.

"Why, are you doubting that I can't kill Hong Gui completely?" Fang Lei tilted his head and looked at Hong Quan.

He pointed his finger directly at the thunder chains that bound Hong Quan and [Hong Gui] and said:

"What is this? Thunder? Do you think thunder is useless against a creature like Hong Gui, which is neither a ghost nor a human?"

Hong Quan's face darkened completely. Knowing that he had to answer the question, he turned his head to look at Fang Lei, and then said in a very old voice: "What do you want to know?"

"You are the real boss, right? How do you plan to break into that sealed area?"

Fang Lei did not directly ask the other party about his purpose in wanting the little girl, because he had no idea which step the little girl was in the plan, so he asked a more general question.

"Do you want to enter that area too?" The old voice looked at Fang Lei suspiciously, unable to figure out Fang Lei's true thoughts for a moment.

"Yes!" Fang Lei admitted generously.

But the old voice did not dare to relax from the bottom of his heart, because he also could not figure out Fang Lei's thoughts.

But he was even more limited because he didn't even dare to test Fang Lei.

After all, Fang Lei in front of him had deduced his vital point simply by letting Hong Gui occupy his main consciousness. It was simply terrifying!
"I can tell you how to get in, but you have to let me and...Him leave."

The old voice said, and then pointed at [Hong Gui] with his chin.

"You don't need to play tricks with me by lifting the roof without opening the window. Your information is enough, and I will let you go!"

Fang Lei sneered and said, then glanced at the Five Elements Evil Ghost and continued;

“But He, no!”

"Hahahahahaha, then how can you guarantee that you won't kill me?"

The old voice relaxed a little and began to negotiate terms.

"I'll let you run for ten breaths first!" Fang Lei said tentatively.

"Stop joking!" Hong Quan's face twitched, and for the first time, his old voice was a little loose.

"Okay, then what do you say we should do?" Fang Lei spread his hands.

"I need hostages!" said Hong Quan.

"No one will take your hostage... Huh? Wait, this guy is your hostage!"

Fang Lei pointed at the [Hong Gui] next to him and said.

[Hong Gui]: “???”

"Aren't you afraid that I will run away with Him?" Hong Quan was also surprised and seemed unable to understand.

How did this [Hong Gui] become the opponent?

"Ah, you reminded me!"

Fang Lei said in surprise, and then slapped [Hong Gui] with his palm, leaving a mark directly on his chest.

[Hong Gui]: “???”

"Now, as long as he gets a certain distance away from me, this mark will explode and turn into a thunder prison again."

"Include him and all the beings beside him."

Fang Lei said with a smile, and when he said the word "all", he glanced at Hong Quan.

Although Hong Quan's eyes twitched as he watched Fang Lei's behavior, he still replied, "Yes!"

"That sealed place is an entrance guarded by the Python family. This entrance is connected to a dark place."

"But this entrance is extremely dangerous because a strange beast called the Yin Beast is always thrown out from it."

"Go on!" Fang Lei "urged".

Hong Quan, however, took a look at the chains that bound him.

Snap—all of Hong Quan’s chains disappeared in an instant.

"I don't know what you are going to do in that dark place, but as far as I know, there are only two ways to enter that sealed place."

"One is to break in! But the guards there are troublesome!"

"As for the second one..."

Hong Quan stopped again and looked at [Hong Gui] beside him, his meaning was very clear.

pat-

With a snap of his fingers, the thunder around [Hong Gui] and Hong Quan disappeared.

Afterwards, [Hong Gui] reluctantly walked to the side of Hong Quan, but Hong Quan still carefully sealed [Hong Gui], obviously fearing that Fang Lei would not abide by the ethics of martial arts and lock him up again.

Seeing this scene, Fang Lei raised his eyebrows. This old guy is really careful.

"There is a hole in the seal, so you can enter through the hole..."

The old voice continued speaking as he slowly backed away carrying Hong Gui.

"And that loophole is related to a little girl. I don't know where this little girl is."

"But she must lead the way in order to bypass the seal and enter the underworld!"

After Hong Quan retreated a long distance carrying [Hong Gui], he suddenly dropped [Hong Gui] and started running away without looking back.
