The old man in hemp clothing sighed, "Shortly this afternoon, the village chief and others discussed it and decided to offer up the daughter of the Wu family."
"Alas... It's shameful to admit, though I am an exorcist, I am utterly powerless in this matter. This Ksitigarbha King is incredibly powerful, and I have no way to help him..."
He had considered all possible scenarios for this matter, but found almost none of them a way to break through.
If we rashly challenge the Ksitigarbha King, we might anger him and bring utter destruction to Longevity Village.
Therefore, he dared not act rashly and sent a letter written in blood to his ninth uncle in Renjia Town, requesting assistance.
"Young Master Su..." Uncle Nine chimed in, "Even if we combine the power of myself and Fellow Daoist Ma Yi, it's still not the place of the Earthly Ghost King. Moreover, it has close ties with the Yin-Yang Realm. If this matter is not handled properly, it could lead to big trouble."
Su Feng raised an eyebrow thoughtfully, "Has this Ksitigarbha Ghost King ever visited Longevity Village?"
“No…” Ancestor Ma Yi shook his head, “But I have investigated from many sources, and through divination, I have also calculated that it will invade Longevity Village within the next few days…”
"Therefore, Lao Wu is also working to counsel his daughter."
But no matter how you try to mediate, this is, after all, a human life, and it's not something that can be casually brought up.
However, given the gravity of the matter and the hundreds of people in the longevity village involved, everyone seemed to tacitly approve of this approach.
"Ha—sacrificing one person to save millions of families may seem noble and righteous, but it's actually incredibly foolish." Su Feng smiled and spoke frankly.
Uncle Nine was slightly shocked after hearing this, not expecting Su Feng to be so direct.
On the contrary, the old patriarch in hemp clothing showed a look of delight, "This young master Su thinks the same way I do! I also wholeheartedly disagree with this matter!"
"But the villagers are obsessed and won't listen to any advice... In addition, I am powerless to deal with the Ksitigarbha King, which is why I made this decision."
As he spoke, the old man in hemp robes slowly rose and cupped his hands in greeting to Su Feng, "I see that Young Master Su is extraordinary and possesses extraordinary power. I wonder if I could ask Young Master Su to help me in this matter so that Longevity Village can be saved from this disaster!"
Su Feng would not refuse the earnest request for help from the Old Ancestor in Hemp Clothes.
Of course, his purpose was not simply to save the longevity village.
I just became interested in that Ksitigarbha King...
In the movie, Ksitigarbha is a supreme and powerful being who slaughtered thousands of people, and many cultivators also died tragically at his hands.
In the original story, the Old Ancestor Ma Yi sacrificed himself to forcibly seal away the Earthly Ghost King.
But that's not permanent...
This lurking danger is always ready to strike at any moment.
Now, the Ksitigarbha King has brought his demonic hand to the Longevity Village.
Perfect timing! When I broke through to the Refining Spirit Realm, I had already used up a lot of the spiritual energy in the Demon Pearl, and I was just worried about where to replenish it.
Right now, this Ksitigarbha King is the best nourishment.
"Senior Mai, you are too kind. This matter is of such great importance that I will certainly not stand idly by."
Su Feng's answer pleased Uncle Nine and Ancestor Ma Yi, who quickly said, "Then we thank Young Master Su for his help!"
"No need to be polite." Su Feng smiled slightly and took another sip of tea.

Chapter 204 No Way Out! Longevity Village is in grave danger!
According to the date set by the village chief, Wu Sitian, the youngest daughter of the Wu family, will be sent to the Ksitigarbha Ghost King in three days.
They had to dress up as brides, ride in red sedan chairs, and win the favor of the Ksitigarbha King in exchange for peace in the longevity village...
Although this practice was somewhat cruel, none of the villagers dared to object.
Since this didn't happen to their own family, they were secretly pleased.
Only the Wu family was plunged into immense suffering.
"Daughter, please stop crying!"
The sound of weeping could be heard constantly in Old Wu's house.
Old Wu stood to the side with a troubled expression, trying to persuade his daughter, Wu Sitian, who was sobbing uncontrollably by the bedside.
Not only her, but even Wu's mother was in tears.
"Ouch, the big one's like this, and the little one's like this too!" Old Wu punched the wall in frustration, but only his hand hurt. "Do you think I wanted this?"
"This...this is all fate, there's nothing we can do!"
In fact, it was during the lottery that he drew a "suicide lot," which led him to ruin his daughter's life.
Normally, Lao Wu would be a hundred percent unwilling!
After all, he only had one daughter, whom he raised with great difficulty and who is now so beautiful and graceful.
Waiting to find a good family, maybe I can receive a dowry.
I never imagined that I would have to risk my life for a mere Ksitigarbha King.
But this was the opinion of the entire village; everyone agreed before the lottery was held…
Therefore, Old Wu could only swallow this bitter pill with tears in his eyes.
"I don't want to! I don't want to—" Wu Sitian covered her face and cried bitterly, turning to look at her mother, "Mother, I don't want to die."
Wu's mother could only cry incessantly, completely helpless.
It was as if their family was being played by fate.
We finally made it through last year's long winter and saw the light at the end of the tunnel, but unexpectedly, this situation happened.
"Sigh—what a mess." Old Wu walked to the door, lit a cigarette, and took a deep drag. "I don't know what I did wrong to deserve this."
"Old Wu, why don't we leave? Let's get out of here... As long as we leave Longevity Village, we'll be fine, right?" Wu's mother suggested at this moment.
But this was met with strong opposition from Lao Wu, who said, "This is our root. Even if we leave here, where can we go?"
"Besides, if we leave, what about the others? Hundreds of people will lose their lives because of this. How can you live with yourself?"
Wu's mother was displeased and stood up to accuse her, "Are you really willing to just watch your own daughter go to her death? How can you live with yourself? That's your own daughter!"
The two argued back and forth, unable to come up with a good solution.
Just then, there was a knock on the door, interrupting their argument.
The voice of the Old Ancestor in Hemp Clothes could be heard coming from outside the courtyard.
"Old Wu, it's me, open the door!"
"Is that Master Ma Yi? What's he doing here so late?" Old Wu frowned, hesitating whether to open the door.
But then I thought, this old man in hemp clothing is the village's exorcist, he has certain abilities.
Although there's not much they can do to deal with the Ksitigarbha King, they might be able to offer some help and advice to help them avoid this situation.
"You two should wipe your tears quickly, don't embarrass yourselves," Old Wu reminded them, then braved the heavy rain to walk out of the yard and open the wooden door.
Several people were standing outside the door.
Besides the Old Ancestor in Ma Yi, there was also his Uncle Nine, whom he had met before, and a young man he had never met before.
"Master Ma Yi, what are you doing...?"
Old Wu pointed to the group of people behind the Old Ancestor in Hemp Clothes.
“We’ve come to discuss the matter of the Earthly King with you.” The Old Ancestor in Hemp Robes nodded and said softly, “Why don’t we go inside and talk further?”

……
The old man in hemp clothing explained the purpose of their visit and introduced Su Feng and Uncle Jiu to Old Wu.
However, Old Wu had some doubts: could this young man, who looked to be no more than twenty years old, really be capable of dealing with the Ksitigarbha King?
He carefully pulled the old man in hemp robes aside and whispered, "Daoist, are you... are you playing me for a fool? You want me to entrust the lives of my daughter, no, the entire village, to this young man?"
The old man in hemp robes raised an eyebrow and said, "This young master Su is no ordinary person... Your daughter, and even the entire village, can be saved!"
"Really?" Old Wu blinked in disbelief.
. . 0
Ancestor Ma Yi nodded firmly.
From the moment he first saw Su Feng, he knew that this young man was no ordinary person!
Whether it's the subtle, pure spiritual energy emanating from him, or the domineering aura he exudes in every gesture!
Everything about this proves that this person is an existence transcending the mortal realm...
Today, it is precisely because of Su Feng that Longevity Village is truly saved!

Chapter 205 The Eight Great Divine Curses Emerge, Is This a Peerless Genius?
The old master in hemp clothing was discussing the next steps with Old Wu.
Su Feng stood aside, watching Wu Sitian weeping on the bed...
It is indeed pitiful. At such a young age, before he could even experience the beauty of youth and the years to come, he had to encounter such a major event.
If he hadn't happened to appear in the longevity village, perhaps this young girl would have faced her destined end.
"Young Master Su...you must be him?"
Just then, Wu's mother, who had been silent all along, suddenly reached out and grabbed Su Feng, saying earnestly, "Young Master Su, do you have a way to help my Sitian?"
"Sitian has never done anything immoral or heinous. She's so kind. How could she let this Ksitigarbha Ghost King defile her..."
