"Can your Companion Magical Treasure be used ?"
"The Magical Treasure has already been promoted," Wu Shuangge said with a wave of his hand, revealing a toilet bucket beside him.
The initially wooden toilet bucket shimmered with a touch of radiance and transformed into a black toilet bucket with a metallic sheen, adorned with an intricate hungry ghost relief clutching the bucket.
Yu Ziqing didn't know what to say for a moment.
If Lei Yu knew this, he wondered if he'd still consider Wu Shuangge a close friend.
Cece laughed so hard she couldn't stand straight, repeatedly slapping Wu Shuangge's shoulder.
"I told you, I told you, hahaha..."
On the endless grassland, a faceless man pulled down his hood, gazing at the White Jade Flying Boat heading towards the Wilderness.
He sighed with a hint of regret.
"Is it that Lei Yu is too stingy, or is Qing Ziyu not greedy enough?
So many treasures, spirit jade, ores, and Qing Ziyu didn't take a single piece."
He contemplated whether his strength could get him close to the flying boat to do something...
With that thought, his figure flickered, and he disappeared from the spot without a sound.
On the White Jade Flying Boat, Lin Fu glanced at the land behind but saw nothing and sensed nothing.
Lin Fu closed his eyes, within his Heart Field.
His consciousness manifested in form, across from him sat a relaxed human form Devil Thought, looking exactly like him.
Only this Devil Thought appeared unusually sinister.
"Didn't notice anything?"
"Nothing." Lin Fu shook his head.
"Useless." The Devil Thought lay down, propped up its head with one hand, and pointed at itself with the other.
"Just now, there was definitely someone watching us with ill intent. My great self's senses couldn't be wrong.
It's just that the person didn't show any murderous intent, otherwise, Miao would certainly have reacted faster than me."
Lin Fu didn't ask who Miao was.
He pointed at himself.
"No, no, no, I am you. I am the Heart Demon formed from the Devil Thought within you; we are one, no need to distinguish between us.
I'll be honest with you, if it wasn't for the fact I can't provoke the big guy outside and might die completely, I wouldn't bother talking nonsense with you."
Lin Fu's expression remained unchanged, quietly watching the Heart Demon flaunt itself.
Finding it boring, the Heart Demon turned over and sat up.
"Fine, fine, I can't fool you. I'm just a bit scared of him. Those ordinary hungry ghosts can't completely kill me once or twice.
But the ones outside, I feel I might really die at their hands.
You see, since you have such a good relationship with them, I'm here to discuss something with you."
"Ha..." Lin Fu suddenly laughed.
A Heart Demon, a Devil, actually warning him that someone was watching them with ill intent.
And now, it was even coming to discuss nicely.
"If I mention this to Young Master Qing, he will certainly help me," Lin Fu said slowly.
"No, please don't, we can work things out." The Heart Demon was startled. For one like him, who had already taken on a human form and even gained consciousness without just wanting to slay and possess the host, that was quite rare.
Thus, he had ambitions. He didn't want to seize a body, recklessly kill, find some thrill, and then die.
"Let's make a deal. You know all about the Devil Dao, but who knows more about cultivating the Devil Dao than a Devil like me?
With your talent, advancing to the Eighth Tier may be very difficult.
Even though talent's effect decreases after the Seventh Tier, you can't deny the wrong paths you once took and the irremovable regrets you've left.
All will make it difficult for you to advance to the Eighth Tier.
"Correct." Lin Fu nodded. There was nothing to deny because the Heart Demon surely knew.
"Then let's make a deal, we'll work together, plus Miao, anyone who comes won't survive under the Eighth Tier.
I'll fully help you advance to the Eighth Tier, but most of the time, all decisions will be yours.
When it comes to killing, you'll take my counsel, and I'll do the killing."
Lin Fu opened his mouth, about to say something, when the Heart Demon quickly added.
"You say who to kill, we kill who, absolutely not more or less!"
"What are you planning to do?" Lin Fu didn't understand.
"When you advance to the Eighth Tier Incarnation Realm, having cultivated the Blade Dao, you should be able to forcibly cut out an incarnation, right?" The Heart Demon chuckled, rubbing its hands.
"Then, you cut me out, and we break off contact. You go your way, from then on, free from Heart Demon troubles, even if you willingly become Devilic, no Heart Demon will ever arise again, isn't that great."
"What do you want to do?" Lin Fu still didn't get it.
"I'll go find someone powerful."
"Why are you looking at me? Cultivators in this world have always taken care of the original host along with those trying to kill us.
Now that the hungry ghost race has emerged, life isn't easy.
That formidable person who can have two hungry ghosts following must be capable of pulling me out without harming you, and crushing me.
I'll just go find someone powerful, as long as he doesn't kill me, no one in this world can kill me, right?"
The Heart Demon laughed heartily, but stopped when it noticed Lin Fu's expression was a bit off, and immediately lay flat.
"Anyway, the terms are laid out, good for you and good for me.
If you still don't trust me, then let's both take the Heavenly Devil Great Oath.
That way, we can all be at ease. If you don't trust me, I don't trust you either.
In the end, if you're unwilling, then have that fierce one kill me already, living is meaningless."
