Boss, keep a low profile

Lu Chaoge did not hesitate, directly accepted the task, and chose to view the task details.

"It is indeed a water ghost." Lu Chaoge's eyes were cold.

Task name: [Water Ghost of Fog River].

Task content: Get rid of the water ghost hiding deep in the bottom of Fog River.

Task reward: 10,000 experience points.

After confirming that it was the water ghost that caused the trouble, Lu Chaoge's mood was a bit bad.

As early as half a year ago, the old village chief had lit the Wanmin incense, suspecting that there was a water ghost in the river, and asked the practitioners to go down the mountain to kill the ghost.

At that time, Lu Dongli was in retreat, which was a critical moment. Lu Chaoge was also out for something and was not in the sect.

After discussing, Hei Ting and Luo Bing took the initiative and spent some spirit stones to ask for help from a [Zhongbaimen] in the Qinglongchuan area.

Half a year ago, Hei Ting and Luo Bing were still in the initial realm of great perfection. Let alone killing ghosts, the Fog River was so deep that they couldn't even dive to the bottom of the river.

The difference between the initial realm and the first realm is not just as simple as whether you can fly or not.

When Lu Chaoge learned about this after returning to the mountain, he not only did not blame them, but also praised them greatly.

He did not think that they did anything wrong, nor would he feel sorry for the spirit stone.

This place is under the protection of our Mo Sect!

Then we must protect it well!

And human life is at stake, so the sooner the problem is solved, the better.

But he did not expect that the disciples of [Zhongbaimen], after receiving the money and sending people, did not deal with the water ghost?

"You cheated me?" Lu Chaoge raised his left eyebrow, his face gradually darkened.

The road is narrow, little brother.

He is almost certain that the water ghost that is causing trouble now is the previous one.

Because in the Tianxuan Realm, it is not that after a person dies, he will become a ghost if he has deep resentment.

How can the remnant of a mere person condense into a powerful ghost?

The water ghost is the product of years of accumulation, and many people fell into the river and died, and the resentment gathered.

No one has died in the Wuhe River in the past six months, so there is no reason for new water ghosts to appear.

If there was more than one water ghost here before, and the disciple only killed one, that would not make sense.

Water ghosts devour and merge with each other, and it is unlikely that two ghosts will coexist in a certain area.

Therefore, either the disciple from [Zhongbaimen] just came to go through the motions and perfunctorily deal with it, or... something is wrong in this river!

"Old village chief, are there any casualties?" Lu Chaoge asked.

The old village chief nodded and said, "Wang Mazi's father died. When he went out fishing, he said that he would bring Wang Mazi a candied haws when he came back. The little kid has been craving for a long time, alas."

Lu Chaoge felt worse after hearing this.

As for other details, Lu Chaoge did not ask.

People killed by water ghosts lose their vitality and turn into shriveled corpses, which will soon float to the surface of the water.

I think it was the Wanminxiang that the old village chief lit after being discovered.

Lu Chaoge waved his sleeves and said in a deep voice: "All of you disperse, don't get too close to the river."

Everyone retreated after hearing this, and then looked at Lu Chaoge with expectation.

This is the head of the Mo Sect!

We should be able to open our eyes today, right?

"Luo Bing, you stay here." Lu Chaoge turned his head and said.

"Disciple obeys the order!" Luo Bing saluted with a very respectful attitude, giving Lu Chaoge enough face.

Of course, she was disappointed in her heart.

"I really want to go into the water with the young master." Luo Bing thought.

Rounding it off, it can be considered as a pair of mandarin ducks playing in the water.

Lu Chaoge nodded slightly, put his hands behind his back, tapped his toes lightly, and the whole person floated towards the foggy river.

He slowly descended, and as he landed, ripples appeared on the water around him, and the smooth water surface gradually became concave.

It seemed that there was an invisible force separating the water flow, and it could not get close to him.

The villagers' eyes lit up, and they all exclaimed: "You are worthy of being the headmaster!"

The disciple of [Zhongbaimen] who came to do business last time, not only looked down on others, but also his methods were not as superb as those of the headmaster Lu.

Under the foggy river, Lu Chaoge continued to sink, the power of water was running on the side, and the consciousness was positioning.

"Left front." Lu Chaoge moved.

[Not too late] appeared in his hand, and a sword energy slashed out fiercely, without any hindrance in the water. On the contrary, it carried a rolling water flow and flew forward!

If it were an ordinary sword cultivator, using a sword in the water would definitely be affected more or less.

But Lu Chaoge, who has the power of water, is different. He can exert greater combat power here!

"[Ding! You have found the target-water ghost.]"

"[Water ghost, transformed by resentment, has been dormant for half a year, and the ghost energy is strong.]"

"[Level: Level 20.]"

"Sure enough, I didn't solve it last time!" Lu Chaoge's eyes condensed.

Water ghosts are the lowest level of ghosts. A level 20 water ghost is considered very strong among its kind.

But in front of Lu Chaoge at this moment - nothing.

After the water ghost blocked the first sword energy, Lu Chaoge no longer held back.

The sword intent and water power followed, and he swung out another sword energy.

The next moment, everyone beside the foggy river only saw the calm lake surface begin to produce waves of water.

A dark and hideous phantom was knocked away by the sword energy and rushed out of the water.

A figure in a green robe slowly floated out and then stood quietly on the water.

His feet landed on the foggy river, and not even a ripple was produced.

[Not too late] was held behind his back by Lu Chaoge with one hand. He raised his right hand, put his index finger and middle finger together, placed them in front of his nose and lips, and said coldly: "Disperse!"

In a flash, the black sword spirit fluttering in the air swept around the water ghost, and the shadow let out a shrill cry, then turned into wisps of black air and dissipated completely.

When the villagers came to their senses, there was no sign of Lu Chaoge and Luo Bing.

…….

…….

"[Ding! You have completed the task, do you want to receive the reward?]"

"[Ding! You have received 10,000 experience points reward.]"

The system prompt sounded in Lu Chaoge's ears, and the task reward had been received.

However, the task was completed, but this matter was not over yet.

"Luo Bing, I want to ask you, which [Zhongbaimen] did you ask for help last time?" Lu Chaoge said lightly.

"Shuiyuemen." Luo Bing replied.

Shuiyuemen is the last one among [Zhongbaimen], but from the name of the sect, it can be seen that this sect mainly practices water swordsmanship, and it is most suitable to go down to the river to deal with the water ghost, so Luo Bing and Heiting chose Shuiyuemen for help.

Luo Bing could see that Lu Chaoge was in a very bad mood.

If it was in his previous life, before doing this kind of task, the background of the task was that a water ghost killed someone, Lu Chaoge would be calm and would just glance at it without looking at the details of the task carefully.

Because to him, it was not a person who died, but a bunch of data.

But it is different now, completely different.

"Sir, are we going to... Shuiyue Gate now?" Luo Bing asked.

Lu Chaoge nodded and said, "Of course we will go, but there is something else to do."

…….

…….

Wuhe, fishing village.

A woman was washing rice. Halfway through, she stopped and was a little absent-minded. After a few seconds, she continued to wash rice.

Just yesterday, her husband died and she became a widow.

On the table, there was a new dress that had not been sewn yet.

"It's useless. I told you so many times not to rely on your good swimming ability. I told you to be careful when fishing." The woman's hands gradually became stronger while washing rice, as if venting.

After exerting force, he said absentmindedly: "I should have worked faster and finished it earlier."

For the huge Qinglongchuan area, the one who died was just a small fisherman.

But for a family, the one who died was the husband, the father, and the pillar of the family.

"Dong Dong Dong!" There was a knock on the door.

The little boy who was playing with the wooden sword ran to open the door.

He was a little dark, with a big head and many moles on his face. He was not good-looking.

The child, nicknamed Wang Mazi, was still young and did not understand death very well. He even thought that his father's words were not counted.

The little boy pushed open the wooden door and looked out.

There was no one outside the house.

A bright red, sour and sweet candied haws was stuck on the ground.
