Chapter 278: Chapter 201: In 10 seconds, I want to see my wife!
“Husband, let’s go together!”
Liu Shishi, Yang Yin, and Yue Yuluo immediately brimmed with murderous intent, wishing to accompany Xu Yang.
Xu Yang shook his head and said, “You all stay and watch the shop. I’ll go alone… A mere Ghost Market General isn’t worth our whole family coming out!”
With that said.
His heart swelled with anger!
Leaving the funeral shop.
Sun Chuanxiao led the way in front, while Xu Yang followed behind, full of murderous intent, and asked, “What’s going on? Isn’t your young mistress here to divide the territory in the Ghost Market? How could she be detained by the General?”
“After Miss entered the Ghost Market, she has had three negotiations with the General and his people. But the results were not good. Today, when the young lady went to the General’s residence, she told me before that if she hadn’t returned by midnight, she would have been detained by the General, and that I must notify you, Master, as soon as possible!”
Sun Chuanxiao continued, “On my way to find Master, I encountered one of the General’s ghostly servants. She asked me to pass a message to you, Master, saying that if you want the young mistress, you need to make a trip to the General’s residence.”
Beneath the mask of blue-faced and sharp-toothed disguise, Xu Yang’s face darkened.
The area of the Ghost Market was almost as big as Wu City.
Passing through a street in the Ghost Market, the silence gradually settled.
Xu Yang looked around and found that there were wastelands and houses here. The style didn’t seem much different from the outside world, and he couldn’t help but wonder… How was this Ghost Market formed?
Who created it?
The Lord of the Ghost Market?
It was said that some Ghost Market Lords were not even Ghost Immortals. How could they create a Ghost Market with such little strength?
The General’s residence was one of the most luxurious mansions in Xi Xia Ghost Market, covering several acres of land, with numerous courtyards and interconnected houses!
According to Sun Chuanxiao, the General’s residence had as many as eight hundred human head lanterns that never extinguished, ghostly servants and maids gathered in groups, and the General had cultivated a group of subordinates, including more than ten red-clothed ghosts and even a “ghost servant” at the Ghost King level.
Upon arriving at the entrance of the General’s mansion.
Two fierce ghosts in armor were seen, holding knives, and standing like spears on both sides.
“Master, please wait a moment. Let me announce our arrival.”
Sun Chuanxiao nodded and bowed before saying, “Excuse me, two brothers, could you please inform that my Master has arrived?”
“Oh?”
The armor-clad fierce ghosts looked at Xu Yang.
One of them was a hanged ghost with a long tongue, who sneered, “I’ve long heard that the Iron Hammer Daoist from Wu City has profound Daoist skills and a twisted mind. Seeing him today is just like that… If you want to enter, remove the mask. Our General’s residence doesn’t welcome sneaky guests!”
Xu Yang shook his head in secret.
Unexpectedly, these ghosts also had a hierarchy system.
Sun Chuanxiao, as a red-clothed ghost, could easily crush and kill the two guards with his strength, but he still had a low attitude in front of them!
Most outrageously, the other fierce ghosts would be scared out of their wits and crying for help when they heard his name, yet these two bastards dared to insult him?
Xu Yang removed the mask and strode forward.
He came in front of the hanged ghost, his mouth curving in a slight smile, and said, “I took off the mask because I don’t need to hide my identity here, not because of the rules of your General’s residence.”
With that said.
He suddenly drew a line in the air with his finger.
Phfft!
A sword aura streaked past his fingertip.
The hanged ghost’s long tongue was split in half, followed by its head falling to the ground, rolling around for a few turns before turning into a wisp of green smoke and dissipating in the air.
“Ding!”
“Congratulations, you have gained merit for the successful crossing of a ghost soul: Merit Points +300.”
“Ding!”
“The fierce ghost is frightened, Merit Points +30.”
The other fierce ghost shuddered involuntarily, and its gaze towards Xu Yang became respectful.
“Oh dear!”
Xu Yang pretended to be distraught, “My, oh my, I was just disgusted by his long tongue and wanted to trim it for him. Who knew I would use too much force…”
With that, he patted the remaining ghost on the shoulder and laughed, “You don’t have to be afraid; accidents can’t happen twice. Come on, take me to see your General.”
“Ding!”
“The fierce ghost is frightened, Merit Points +30.”
The fierce ghost, believing that the “Iron Hammer Daoist” would be wary in front of the General’s residence, was now frightened by the killing of his companion, his legs trembling. He immediately led Xu Yang into the General’s mansion.
After passing several long corridors,
They finally arrived at an extravagant reception hall with open doors.
Inside the reception hall, ghostly women dressed in gauzy clothing played music and danced.
At a round table sat four ghostly figures.
The leader of the group was clad in a golden armor, having a majestic appearance, and wore a saber at his waist, exhibiting a General’s demeanor. He emanated a terrifying aura, seemingly even stronger than the Ghost King’s.
The other three ghostly figures wore diverse clothing, and their strength varied. But they were all at the Ghost King level.
Behind each of the four ghostly figures stood two beautiful female ghosts attending them.
In particular, the beautiful female ghost standing behind the “General” in golden armor had an aura not much weaker than that of Yue Qiluo!
“Master, that golden-armored General is the General of the Ghost Market. The other three are the managers of the Xi Xia Ghost Market… And the one behind the General is his Ghost King servant!”
Sun Chuanxiao said in a low voice.
As soon as Xu Yang arrived, all the ghosts in the room looked over.
