Chapter 177 Cooperation
Chu Lu then said, "Then just wait patiently for his story line to end... Wait, I think you said before that his ending was that he was beaten to death by Kui Huo?"

Qin Su: “Yes.”

Chu Lu: “…”

He said, "So we can't wake up Shanjun, we can't kill Kui Huo, and we can't just sit and wait for the storyline to end. Isn't that the only way?"

Qin Su: "There is still a way. We can find a way to trap Kui Huo so that she can't go out and contact her companions. This way we can interrupt the story line and concentrate on getting Shanjun to help open the gate to the underworld."

Chu Lu: "So you mean... to seal her? Does the chat group have this function?"

Qin Su: "No. But we can find something similar in this novel world. In this book, there is a magic weapon called Soul Bottle, which can seal the enemy's soul in it and put it into a long sleep. Although the heroine's halo can invalidate this magic weapon, we can invalidate her halo in advance, so there is no problem."

"Really? Then where can I get this thing?" Chu Lu asked.

"The Soul-Catching Bottle is considered a top-level magical weapon. The finished product only appeared a few times in the original book. Moreover, since we don't know the current timeline, we don't know where to wait. But this thing is a magical weapon for magic cultivators, and this Ghost Sect seems to be a large demon sect. Maybe the people here can refine it." Qin Su said.

Chu Lu frowned slightly: "But as an outsider, I definitely can't ask them for help, so do you want me to contact Shanjun directly?"

Qin Su nodded and said, "Yes, this is the best and most direct way. With the help of Shanjun, many things will be much easier. In addition, considering that the production of the Soul Capture Bottle takes a long time, if we just stand by and do nothing during this period, and let the storyline continue to develop."

Qin Su paused and said, "I have already told you how outrageous the subsequent plot is. You have also seen how bad and unstable Shan Jun's performance is. He will definitely not be able to bear it. His mental state will get worse and worse until he goes completely crazy. By then, even if we solve Kui Huo, he may not be willing to help us open the gate to the underworld.

So we'd better intervene as soon as possible to help him resist Kui Huo's torture and reduce his mental burden."

Chu Lu put his hand on his chin, thought for a while, made a decision and said, "Okay, let's do it."

Qin Su: "Well, as for how to convince him..."

Chu Lu said: "This is easy. We know the cause and effect of the matter, and even know what Kui Huo wants to do in the future. It is not difficult to convince him."

Qin Su: "That's right, I'll leave it all to you."

After the two of them finished discussing, Chu Lu left the vase. He followed the direction the tiger left and soon found it.

He was sitting on a mat meditating and resting.

Chu Lu had no intention of hiding anything, so he pushed the door open and walked in.

Shan Jun woke up instantly, looked at Chu Lu with a gloomy face and said: "Who are you? How dare you trespass into our sect's important territory!"

"Master, don't be alert." Chu Lu said calmly: "I am here to save you."

The tiger sneered and said sarcastically, "Where did this bastard come from? Are you trying to cheat me?"

Facing Shanjun's ridicule, Chu Lu was not angry. After all, this was at least much more pleasing to the eye than the mean and stupid look he had when facing Kui Huo.

Of course, Chu Lu would not allow the other party to mock him, so he said: "Sect Master, you are not an ordinary person. You are the youngest son of the Emperor of Heaven on the surface, but in fact you are the illegitimate son of the Queen of Heaven and the Demon Lord. You fell into the mortal world because of Kui Huo..."

Chu Lu told the whole story of the relationship between Shan Jun and Kui Huo. Shan Jun's face was full of ridicule at first, but then he became serious, and then alert. When Chu Lu finished speaking, there was a hint of fear in his eyes.

"Who are you?" Shan Jun stood up unconsciously, "What brings you here today?"

"I told you I'm here to save you." Chu Lu said, "Master, don't you feel strange? Kui Huo is just a mortal woman, a tool for the prince to get through his love tribulation. It's incredible that she can ascend to heaven. After ascending, she is just a small fairy. She can actually defeat the entire heaven. Isn't this a bit too absurd?"

Shanjun was stunned at first, then a look of realization appeared on his face: "Indeed, it is indeed..."

Chu Lu added: "What's even more absurd is that you only realized something was wrong now."

The tiger was stunned again, this time with a hint of fear on his face.

"You mean, you mean that I was influenced by her?" Shan Jun's face was ugly, as pale as a dead person. "How did she do it? Why did she do this?"

"They are demons from outside the domain!" Chu Lu began to make up stories. After all, he pointed out the strangeness of Shan Jun and Kui Huo just to make Shan Jun believe him, and he didn't intend to tell him the truth, so when it came to the core part, he could only talk nonsense.

Chu Lu said: "Their goal is to select a person with great luck, tailor a script for him, and then torture him endlessly, drawing strength from his despair. You are the one chosen by Kui Huo."

"There is actually such a thing?" Shanjun muttered to himself.

If someone said these words to him on normal days, he would just sneer.

But Chu Lu revealed his true identity right from the start and pointed out his abnormalities. It would be hard for Shanjun not to believe these words at this time.

But he still had some doubts, so he asked again: "Who are you? How do you know all this?"

Chu Lu put his hands together and said, "I am Liaokong, a disciple of the Pure Land Zen Sect. Not long ago, a demon woman suddenly appeared and committed heinous crimes. I don't know why I wanted to feed the tiger with my own body in order to influence her. Does the sect master know about this?"

The tiger blinked his eyes and said slowly: "I have heard of this..."

Then he asked in surprise: "Could it be that..."

"That's right." Chu Lu nodded and said, "I was targeted by them just like the Sect Master. But I was lucky. I saw through her tricks and used them against her to successfully subdue her. Then I learned all this from her and knew that you, the Sect Master, were in danger, so I hurried over here."

"I see." The tiger believed it a little more and asked again, "Then Master, how are you going to save me?"

Chu Lu then told him about the making of the soul-catching bottle.

"This thing can indeed be made within the sect." Shan Jun showed hesitation. He still didn't believe it. "But it's very expensive, so we can't make a decision lightly..."

Chu Lu immediately saw through his thoughts and said, "It seems that the Sect Master is still a little hesitant. Let me put it this way. I just said that these extraterritorial demons will tailor the script. And I happen to have read the script. So if I can accurately predict Kui Huo's next move, would you believe me, Sect Master?"

The tiger opened his eyes and said firmly: "If you can really do it, I will follow your lead!"
