Chapter 313 The Ghost Valley (2/2)
Besides, you must be used to it. Surely, many girls have fallen for a powerful man like you. Unfortunately, I'm no exception.”
This was the first time she and Austin had met. Yet, she acted completely lovestruck, submitting herself immediately to be his mistress. She was quite confident that her looks would sway Austin.
”Really? You must be kidding me,” Austin stammered.
Excitement was written all over his face as he stole glances at the women. His cheeks flu
re?” he inquired.
”Mister, have you heard of the Ghost Sect before?” the woman asked.
”Ghost Sect!”
exclaimed Austin as he recalled the sect.
”Okay, it looks like you have. You seem to know something about it. Because you helped us, in return, I'll tell you what you want to know,” she offered.
According to the woman, the Ghost Sect was an evil sect of the Violet Orchid Empire. It was an ancient group that was known for its strong power many years ago, and Ghost Valley was its base.
500 years ago, the head of the sect decided that he wanted to put the whole Violet Orchid Empire under his rule, making the Ghost Sect the leader and all the other sects its subsidiaries.
To do this, the members of the Ghost Sect killed numerous cultivators and collected their ghosts for cultivation.
This was because they needed countless ghosts to cultivate their martial skills.
To defend against the Ghost Sect, all the sects and forces, large and small, united together to form an alliance that would resist the Ghost Sect's invasion. For a month, they fought relentlessly. They did not stop until the Ghost Sect was completely wiped out. Now, the Ghost Valley was deserted as its main residents were obliterated. What remains were the ghosts of the cultivators who had been killed by the evil sect. And such was the legend that enfolded this place.
Since then, cultivators journeyed here in flocks in an attempt to search for the hidden treasure of the Ghost Sect. Rumor had it that hidden in some of the caves were enormous amounts of treasure. Hundreds and thousands of people wanted a piece of it.
But the tragedy that took place left Ghost Valley with enormous amounts of negative energy and arrays. What was more, countless ghosts lingered about. Although many people came to search for the treasures, only a few of them succeeded.
But of course, all of it was hearsay. To this day, no one could confirm that this was indeed the home of the Ghost Sect, nor that the Ghost Sect ever did exist in the first place.
