YM778.TV Chapter 505: 302: You Retake It!
Feng Qing’an reached out and rubbed his forehead, not knowing how to comment.
“What’s up? You’re not scared? Or are you saying, you don’t believe what I said?”
Noteing Feng Qing’an’s reaction, Hua Qingyu felt somewhat discontented.
“It’s not that I don’t believe, but it’s not my first time in this ghost city. This Guiltless Ghost King you mentioned, it’s the first time I’ve heard of him. I think I have a fairly good understanding of the ruler of the city, but I have never heard of such a ghost creature under her command.”
“The Guiltless Ghost King handles affairs for the ghost nation that other ghost creatures must not see. Therefore, unless you do something specific, it would be difficult to encounter this ghost king. But now that you have slaughtered their offspring in the street, you have naturally attracted his attention.”
Hua Qingyu explained. His demeanor and familiarity made Feng Qing’an feel like he was the outsider and this guy appeared to be a local who knew everything.
“You seem to know quite a lot!”
Feng Qing’an murmured, feeling that this ghost king sounded like the operator of a secret organization. Just by interacting with his offspring, the king’s secrets could be seen, it was quite outrageous.
“The Star Lodging Sect holds the ‘Purple Star Astrology,’ and Hua Qingyu has genuinely inherited this technique. It’s not difficult to calculate the actions of a ghost creature.”
The eerie figure explained at this moment. The girl proudly puffed out her chest. Feng Qing’an nodded solemnly, deciding they were good companions to make allies with.
“That’s all?”
Hua Qingyu, who had paused and raised her head to wait for a moment, became somewhat annoyed when she found there was no more information forthcoming.
“What else?”
The eerie figure was also a bit confused.
“Keep going? Is that all there is to say about me? ‘Purple Star Astrology’ is just a trivial divine power I have mastered. I also have several other major divine powers worth mentioning.”
The eerie figure fell silent, not knowing how to respond. He then turned his gaze to Feng Qing’an and began to speak more,
“Aren’t you leaving yet? If you continue to stay here, the ghost king will find you. Even if you have the means to deal with it, this is the capital of the Ghost Nation. Not only are there countless ghost kings lurking here, but also a ghost immortal. You won’t have a good end if you fight.”
“I am leaving now, but before I go, may I ask what you are planning to do here? I am quite familiar with this place, perhaps I can be of help.”
Feng Qing’an asked straight out. From their conversation, it seemed that there were more than just the two of them infiltrating the city. A group with such extraordinary backgrounds hid in the ghost nation, which could cause great chaos. Even East Huang might not be able to handle it, as their backgrounds were too big.
“What are you asking these for, are you colluding with the ghost creatures? After finding out our purpose, are you going to betray us?”
The elusive figure had stopped moving around Feng Qing’an as he noticed that the golden-eyed black cat on the boy’s shoulder was staring at him no matter how he changed his position.
“With your backgrounds, even if I wanted to betray you to the ghost creatures, would it even matter?”
Feng Qing’an laughed. Just from their fragments of conversation, he could determine that in the ghost world, even the Ghost Kingdom, ruled by a ghost immortal, was nothing in front of mighty forces like the Star Lodging Sect.
“Of course it wouldn’t matter. So, you better not do anything foolish.”
The eerie figure warned Feng Qing’an. From the moment he first laid eyes on Feng Qing’an, he had disliked him, filled with an unspeakable resentment.
“What’s the big secret? We came here to find a treasure. Wenren Daoyou from Danding Zong had a key, but didn’t know its origin.
Luckily, when our group of true inheritors of Taoism gathered together for discussions and exchanges, someone discovered that this key was used to unlock a secret realm. Hence, we all came.”
Hua Qingyu, however, didn’t care and casually revealed their purpose to Feng Qing’an.
Unlike the eerie figure, she found Feng Qing’an to be naturally likable at first sight, which was why she ended up aiding him in his escape without even figuring out his identity except that he was a human.
“So, you all gathered together, discussed, and someone happened to have an unidentifiable key, which you than researched and ventured into the ghost world?”
The expression on Feng Qing’an’s face was indescribable.
What were these Taoism geniuses taking the ghost world for? Some cultivators would not dare to step into such hazardous places even after they had gone through tribulations and became human immortals.
Yet, these people gathered casually, had a little discussion, and embarked on a reckless adventure. Were all the prodigies of Taoism so casual and unrestrained? This was too bold and tempting.
“Yes, that’s right.”
Hua Qingyu gave Feng Qing’an a thumbs up.
“Did you find the entrance to the secret site in You Huang Ghost Country? Inside the capital itself?”
Feng Qing’an’s looked even more peculiar. If this was actually the case, he should discuss it with East Huang. Concealing a site right under their noses undetected was too outrageous.
