Chapter 160 Equivalent Exchange
The man in white robe was holding a jade pen and was about to tick off all the names on the list when he noticed a figure beside him.

When he turned around, he saw a young face full of curiosity. The other person's almond-shaped eyes were staring at the thing in his hand, and he was smiling a little foolishly.

Yun Xi's eyes sparkled when the two appeared. The legendary Black and White Impermanence, famous figures in the underworld, appeared before her, holding a jade pen to evoke souls. This aroused her curiosity, so she subconsciously activated "Thousand Shadows Supporting the Wind" and came to the side of the man in white robe in the blink of an eye.

The man in black robe was also startled and shouted loudly:
"What do you want to do?"

Yun Xi chuckled and said:
"I have long admired the names of the two ghost messengers from the underworld. Seeing them with my own eyes today makes me extremely happy. So I dared to come closer to admire their demeanor. Please don't blame me!"

After saying this, he bowed politely.

After hearing Yun Xi's words, Liu Haotian and the other two felt like laughing, but they tried their best to hold it back.

After hearing Yun Xi's words, the man in black robe didn't know whether to reply or not. He could only snort coldly and then throw out a black chain to restrain the soul.

The man in white robes was much calmer. After ticking off the list and putting away the book and jade pen in his hand, he spoke:

"Little Taoist friend, could you please tell me why so many mortal souls gather here?"

"of course."

Yun Xi succinctly recounted the entire incident, then took out the bronze mirror from his sleeve pocket and said:
"This is the bronze mirror that caused the trouble. It doesn't look like something from the mortal world, nor does it look like something from the world of cultivation. I was just about to take it back to the sect. I don't know."

Before Yun Xi could finish the rest of her words, Hei Wuchang blurted out:
"Soul-collecting mirror? How did it appear here?"

It was too late for Bai Wuchang to stop it.

Yun Xi immediately withdrew the action of handing over the bronze mirror and said with a smile:

"So this evil thing came from the underworld!"

Hei Wuchang subconsciously tightened the soul-locking chain in his hand, his eyes drifting away.

Bai Wuchang held his forehead and could only explain politely:

"This Soul-Gathering Mirror is indeed a Horcrux assigned by the Underworld's Ghost Messengers. It is used to collect souls. However, we Ghost Messengers also encounter some unexpected situations when we are on missions. This Soul-Gathering Mirror must have been accidentally left in the mortal world by the Ghost Messengers.

However, only the ghost messengers of our underworld can control Horcruxes; ordinary mortals don't have this ability. Furthermore, from what you just said, the spirit of this Soul Mirror is forcibly absorbing souls to repair its own damage, which surprised us a little."

Yun Xi didn't hold on to it. After thinking for a moment, she said:

"As far as we know, the spirit of this Soul Mirror must have been bewitched or contaminated by an evil cultivator. That's why my pet told me it smelled a strange odor, not just the scent of an evil cultivator."

Her explanation made Liu Haotian and the other two suddenly understand. No wonder they felt that the bronze mirror's actions were exactly the same as those of evil cultivators. The soul-absorbing mirror devoured the souls sacrificed by the wishers, fulfilled their wishes, and then magnified their desires.

In order to get more, mortals will sacrifice more people. The soul-absorbing mirror can repair its body by absorbing the souls of the sacrifices. The people of Taoyuan Village are killing themselves in this way. The only one who escaped is Yin Yong, who was not bewitched because he knew the horror of the bronze mirror.

Liu Haotian continued:

"The evil cultivators do this to shift the blame onto the Underworld, and secondly, to turn this place into a place of resentment, a precious place for their own cultivation. Don't underestimate the resentment of mortals."

After hearing this, Hei Wuchang's eyes lit up, and he felt like he was about to spit out fire:

"You actually want us to take the blame. That's a nice thought!"

Bai Wuchang was much calmer. He turned to Yun Xi and said:
"Fellow Daoist, could you please give me the Soul-Gathering Mirror? I will take it back to the underworld and give an explanation to these mortals who died in vain." Yu Qingcheng raised her phoenix eyes slightly and asked rudely:
"What about us? We sacrificed a lot of valuables to save people, and we were almost trapped in the Soul-Snatching Mirror. If Master Wei hadn't had the treasures bestowed upon us by our Master to protect us, we would have become part of the Soul-Snatching Mirror by now, and you probably wouldn't have been able to discover the evil this Soul-Snatching Mirror was doing."

After hearing what Yu Qingcheng said, Yun Xi immediately nodded, indicating that the other party was right.

The Black and White Impermanence looked at each other, and after a light cough, the White Impermanence said:

"This matter is indeed difficult for the four of you. We also want to make some compensation, but the things of the underworld are not suitable for you fellow Taoists."

Yun Xi stared at the Black and White Impermanence for a while, then said with a cunning smile:

"The two ghost messengers are ghost cultivators. They don't use spirit stones for their daily cultivation. They should use soul stones, right?"

The Black and White Impermanence's expression paused slightly, but they nodded in agreement, believing that this kind of thing could not be hidden from the cultivators.

Bai Wuchang's reaction was even faster. He immediately said:
"Fellow Daoist, do you want the Soul Stone?"

"Well, I'm a little curious and want to see it for myself."

Yun Xi did not deny it.

Black and White Impermanence looked at each other and said:
"Yes, we will pay you the Soul Stone according to the reward standard for finding a lost Horcrux."

Hei Wuchang immediately added:

"Take the reward, and we'll be even."

"Can!"

Yun Xi agreed readily.

The other three had no objection. The main force who was able to escape this time was Yun Xi. The other party thought that the soul stone was useful, so they would not ruin their companions' plans.

Black Impermanence had already captured all the souls floating above Taoyuan Village. After discussing with White Impermanence, he piled a pile of black crystal-like stones on the ground and said:
"This is the reward promised to you."

Yun Xi swept his consciousness and said:
"The spiritual stones and magic stones in the world of cultivation are divided into high, medium and low grades. I believe the soul stones in the underworld are the same. These soul stones seem to have a lot of impurities."

Hei Wuchang said helplessly:

"This fellow Daoist knows quite a lot. This is indeed a low-grade soul stone, but it is suitable for your current use. The soul power in the middle-grade soul stone is too huge, and you simply cannot absorb it completely."

Yun Xi knew that what the other party said made sense, but she still tried to argue:
"In that case, let's exchange the low-grade soul stones for two medium-grade soul stones as a souvenir. We'll split the rest equally."

Bai Wuchang knew that there was no point in worrying about it any further. They could get the bulk of the reward anyway, so he readily accepted a small portion of the soul stones and then exchanged them for two medium-grade soul stones with fewer impurities.

Yun Xi waved his hand and collected two medium-grade soul stones and ten low-grade soul stones, and divided the rest equally among the other three people. The three people put their own shares into the storage bags, and Yun Xi handed over the soul mirror.

Bai Wuchang waved his sleeve to collect the mirror and prepared to return the way he came. Yun Xi flashed and came to the two of them again. With a smile on his face, he took out the communication talisman and handed it to each of them:

"It's fate that I can meet you two brothers. If you need me in the future, you can also send a message to contact me. We can become friends and share what we need."

Hei Wuchang felt that he had broadened his horizons today, as there were monks who were eager to make friends with their ghost messenger, but he still took the communication talisman.

Bai Wuchang was much calmer. He handed a black box to Yun Xi.
