Urban Demon Refining System

The overpass mentioned by the baseball cap is located in the southern part of the city. At that time, T City was in a period of rapid development, and the overpass was surrounded by demolished houses. Apart from a few residents, there were very few people around.

"Hey kid! Over here!" As soon as he got out of the car, Zhao Baichuan saw the thin figure in the baseball cap waving at him with a smug smile on his face.

"That bastard, I'll make you pay later!" Zhao Baichuan cursed inwardly as he walked onto the overpass.

"Did you bring the things?" the man in the baseball cap asked, getting straight to the point.

"Where's Xiao Mo?"

"Once you give me the things, you'll naturally see that girl!"

"No! I must see her first!"

"You have no choice. The person is in our hands. Stop talking nonsense and hand over the stuff!" Unexpectedly, the person in the baseball cap spoke much more forcefully this time.

"Hmph!" Zhao Baichuan frowned. "Why should I believe you!"

"I can guarantee that little girl will be alright!" Suddenly, a cold voice rang out behind him.

"Who!" Zhao Baichuan was startled. There was only one person in the baseball cap before, when did another one appear!

"Hehe, don't be nervous. Let me introduce myself. Everyone usually calls me Ninth Master. I'm this guy's boss." A man in a black trench coat appeared behind him and pointed to a baseball cap.

"Ninth Master is a big shot in the underworld, he wouldn't lie to you, hand over the stuff now!" The man in the baseball cap said arrogantly, perfectly playing the role of a lackey.

"I want to see Xiao Mo!" Zhao Baichuan ignored the man in the baseball cap's shouts and turned to the man in the trench coat. However, he also became more vigilant. This guy who called himself "Ninth Master" was a bit strange.

"Hehe, of course." Ninth Master chuckled lightly, flicked his finger in front of his chest, and a circle of light resembling a screen was drawn.

"So, your little girlfriend is safe now." In the picture, there is a girl lying on the sofa fast asleep, which is Lin Xiaomo.

"What kind of trick is this!" Zhao Baichuan was shocked. This Ninth Master was quite mysterious. "If I hand over the items, you promise to release Xiao Mo and not cause us any trouble in the future?"

"You can rest assured of what Ninth Master says; his word is his bond!" the man in the baseball cap said eagerly.

"Hmm." Ninth Master nodded, acknowledging his statement.

"The items are on my phone, how can we exchange them?"

"Let us see it first!" The speaker was still wearing a baseball cap.

"Here it is!" Zhao Baichuan didn't say anything this time. He directly opened the interface of Baihuaxiu's sealing stone. At this moment, his mind was racing, constantly thinking about how to stall for time. He couldn't possibly deal with these two people on his own.

"Not bad, the item is genuine! I can smell the intoxicating fragrance!" Ninth Master took a deep breath, revealing an expression of ecstasy. "Little guy, thank you!" With that, he waved his hand, and the sealing stone on the screen flew out automatically, floating towards his hand.

"Oh no!" Zhao Baichuan was startled, but it was too late to stop them. He saw Ninth Master take the sealing stone, examine it with interest, and then, to his and the man in the baseball cap's astonishment, swallow it whole!

"Haha! This tastes great! It seems to be from a celestial being in the Heavenly Palace. My magical power will be restored quite a bit!" After swallowing the sealing stone, Ninth Master seemed to savor the taste for a moment, then burst into laughter!

"Little one! I'm in a good mood today, so I won't make things difficult for you! Zheng Xiaowu! Release that girl!"

"Yes!" The man in the baseball cap quickly responded, taking out a jade gourd from his pocket. He opened the gourd's mouth, muttering incantations. In a moment, a golden light emanated from it, landing on the ground and slowly enlarging. It was none other than the unconscious Lin Xiaomo!

"Xiao Mo!" Zhao Baichuan rushed over and anxiously called out, supporting Lin Xiao Mo's shoulders.

"Don't worry, this girl has just been bewitched by my magic. She'll be fine in three to five days," Ninth Master said. "I'm in a good mood today, so you'd better take her and leave quickly, or I might change my mind!"

"You!" Zhao Baichuan was furious. This Ninth Master was too arrogant. However, he calmed down immediately because Baihua Xiu actually issued him a task at this moment!

"Xiao Mo, let's go!" Ignoring the smile on Ninth Master's face, which seemed to be like that of someone who had just released his prey, Zhao Baichuan picked up Lin Xiao Mo's delicate body and walked down the overpass. He knew that this was not a place to stay for long.

"Hehe, interesting!" Ninth Master chuckled, watching Zhao Baichuan's retreating figure. "If we had a few more guys like him, how could we not recover our magical power!"

"Congratulations, Your Majesty, on your great increase in strength! You will surely be boundless in your magic power in the future!" The man in the baseball cap quickly began to flatter him.

"Hehe! Such things are rare and hard to come by. Most of the great demons inside the sealing stone have been taken away by the Heavenly Court, and the few remaining are just barely surviving. If I hadn't happened to sense this stone when it was being unsealed, I might have ended up like them!"

"Your Majesty is blessed with boundless fortune! In the future, even more great demon sealing stones will gather here, and your return to the peak is just around the corner!"

"Hehe, no rush!" Ninth Master was clearly pleased with this clumsy flattery and laughed twice. "The most urgent thing now is to refine this stone, so that we won't be powerless to fight back when those Taoist priests come knocking on our door. By the way, Zheng Xiaowu, is that blessed land you mentioned last time really true?"

"Really? Really!" Zheng Xiaowu, who was wearing a baseball cap, quickly said, "That place is on Jade Plate Mountain. I'll take a taxi there right away!"

"No need! I just inhaled the immortal energy emanating from the sealing stone, and my body is still supple. It's a good time to stretch! I'll take you there!" Ninth Master picked up Zheng Xiaowu and held him in his hand. "Hold on tight!" Black mist swirled beneath his feet, and a black cloud appeared out of thin air, carrying him and Zheng Xiaowu into the air. They flew towards Jade Plate Mountain at an astonishing speed.

……

"Xiao Chuan!" Zhao Baichuan carried Lin Xiaomo down the overpass and heard someone calling his name. He looked up and saw Xiao Yang waving at him from a black stretch Lincoln.

"Teacher Xiao? What's wrong..." Zhao Baichuan wanted to say something, but Xiao Yang stopped him, "Let's talk in the car. Is Xiao Mo alright now?"

"It's okay, but I'll need to sleep for a few days."

"That's good! Come on! Get in the car, I'm taking you to meet a senior today!"

"Teacher, Xiao Mo, she..."

"It's alright. That senior has a private doctor at home. Xiao Mo can get a check-up there."

"Alright then!" Zhao Baichuan had no choice but to agree, while secretly wondering what kind of senior could have such great power.
