Chapter 594: Desperate Alliance

    

ed up the cigar from beside the ashtray, took a puff, and said."Of course, I happened to be in Europe, so I invited them over to discuss getting a batch of goods from Europe together. Since our family...After seeing off the Zhang family couple, Tao Yong called Hou Li and inquired about the reason.

"Tao Ge, this is how it went down. I went to take a look, and the villa was sealed by a Taoist priest. Humans can enter and exit freely, but the Yin spirits trapped inside can't get out easily."

I reckon that Zhang Zhe is gone for good. Just go through the motions and appease those couple, get the money and that's it.

He smiled and said.

"Do you know which Celestial Master did this"

"I don't know."

"Okay, I understand. Help me find out which Taoist priest it was! I'll go to the scene. If it's successful, I'll give you a 10% commission."

Tao Yong said.

"Okay, thank you, Tao Ge. In the future if there's something like this, I'll definitely think of you."

After hanging up the phone, Tao Yong went to prepare.

The next morning at ten o'clock, Tao Yong got into a business Buick and went to a villa area in the southern suburbs of the city.

When Tao Yong saw the villa in front of him, his eyes flickered. He could tell that the person who sealed the villa was a legitimate Taoist priest, and at a glance, he knew it wasn't some unknown nobody.

"Master Tao, look."

Zhang Zhe's father rubbed his hands and said.

Because he saw the other party staring intently at the villa, but with no intention of entering.

Let me take a look first.

Tao Yong glanced at his eyes, then followed the Zhang couple into the villa.

The villa was in a state of disrepair. Although it had only been less than half a year since the incident, due to neglect, it was filled with dust and dried bloodstains everywhere, which was quite horrifying to behold.

Zhangjia couple also dared to come in because they had Master Taoyong.

Tao Yong could already smell the metallic tang of blood and hear cries for help. This was the memory that belonged to the villa.

Among these sounds, there was also a faint cry for help.

"Help me! Help me!"

Tao Yong followed the sound and found a diamond button in a large vase. On the button, he saw a faint, translucent soul—that of Zhang Zhe, the couple's son.

"You're lucky indeed, hiding on this button and preserving a sliver of your soul."

Tao Yong curled his lips into a smile, it seemed that this ghost servant was his now, only now the other party was too weak and needed time to recover.

He immediately addressed the two people around him who were nervously looking about.

"Your son is lucky. He still has a wisp of his soul left. Luckily, I found him. Otherwise, it wouldn't be long before he dissipated."

Pointing at the two people's eyes, he briefly opened their third eye, allowing them to see their own son.

"Zhe'er!"

The woman cried out in alarm, her heart breaking as she looked at her son's nearly transparent body.

"Mom and Dad, you have to avenge me!"

Zhang Zhe has become like this, yet he still makes his parents avenge him.

Actually, if Tao Yong and the others hadn't come today, it wouldn't be long before his wisp of soul would slowly dissipate. It's only because he's unwilling to accept this that he's persisted until now.

"Do you know who did this to you"

Tao Yong asked with great interest.

After all, for such a unorthodox and conventional Taoist priest, he was also very interested.

She is a female celestial master, she is very skilled!

Speaking of this person, Zhang Zhe unconsciously trembled, and then a graceful figure appeared before the three. The next second, Zhang Zhe began to dissipate because his soul power was unstable.

Tao Yong's eyes flashed, and he immediately took out a ghost card, drawing Zhang Zhe's dissipating soul into it. Then he said to the two:

"Gentlemen, your young master's spirit is extremely unstable and currently unable to be reborn. He needs time to recuperate, otherwise even if he enters the cycle of reincarnation, he will only be reborn into the animal realm."

Upon hearing Tao Yong's words, the two of them immediately changed color and quickly said:

"Master Tao, please be sure to nurture my son's spirit well and find him a good place."

The man immediately said.

"Master Tao, please help me get revenge on my son's behalf. Find that celestial master and settle the score with him. As long as that female celestial master doesn't have a good ending, this villa will be given to you Master, plus another 500,000 yuan for your hard work!"

Besides wanting her son to do well, the woman also wants revenge on the female celestial master. If it weren't for her, her son wouldn't have ended up in this situation.

But she doesn't consider that Zhang Zhe is bold and reckless, hijacking the Celestial Master to make him his plaything. It's something even capable people wouldn't tolerate.

She didn't bother to clean up the trash herself, she was just pitiful for those girls who died innocently. So she took action, letting those girls seek revenge on their own, and after fulfilling their wishes, she reincarnated.

This is also why no ghosts were seen after Tao Yong arrived.

Hearing the woman's words, Tao Yong felt a surge of excitement. This three-story villa was worth at least five million on the market. With the money she offered, he could perfectly furnish it into his own lair.

Tao Yong didn't refuse outright, but he hesitated a little. The woman immediately started raising the stakes:

"I think Master Tao is very low-key. I even sent my car to pick you up today, just hoping that you can help me get justice for my son."

The man glanced at his wife and didn't object, he just lowered his eyes, pondering something.

Only when the remuneration reached 800,000 yuan did Tao Yong accept this commission.

“Both esteemed guests, as you know, we celestial masters all have our own factions. If I were to make things difficult for that female celestial master, she certainly wouldn't just sit idly by. Therefore, I must carefully plan this matter, lest before I avenge your son, I expose my tracks.”

Tao Yong's words aren't entirely false, after all, knowing yourself and your enemy is crucial for a hundred victories. He's been able to make it this far because he's always been careful and cautious.

"Of course, we would do as the master says. As long as we can avenge my son, it doesn't matter how much longer we wait."

The woman readily agreed, and Zhang's father chimed in from the side, saying there was no problem.

To show their sincerity, the next day, the car and villa were transferred into Tao Yong's name, along with three hundred thousand in cash. The purpose was self-evident: to nurture her son's soul back to health and then do everything they could to avenge him.

Tao Yong hadn't received such a large order in five years. To show that the other party's money was well spent, he erased the Ghost Child's consciousness and, with its help, allowed Zhang Zhe's remaining soul to devour the Ghost Child's soul, thus officially becoming his ghost servant.

Of course, he wouldn't tell Zhang Zhe this, nor would he tell his parents. He only let Zhang Zhe appear in front of his parents a month later, spending an hour with them and completely calming the two down.

Zhang Zhe's soul has already recovered, but he insists on seeing the fate of his enemies before being reborn.

As you all know, I arranged for him to be reborn into a wealthy family. I bribed the ghost officials to give him preferential treatment. If Zhang Zhe doesn't cooperate, not only will he not be able to reincarnate smoothly, but he will also offend the ghost officials, which would be a losing deal for me.

Tao Yong twirled the jade beads in his hand, earnestly rambling nonsense.

"Has Master Tao made any progress on the matter of my son's enemy"

"During this time, I've been using my connections to look for the other party. I actually found them, and because I found them, it feels even more complicated. She's a Celestial Master from Longhushan."pressions.As soon as he entered the base, a frown creased Ma Lu's face.
