Chapter 526 (2/2)

Green Ghost stood up, as if a great burden had been lifted from him. He then invited Devouring Ghost to the throne and said, ”Master, please take a seat.”

Instead of taking the seat, Devouring Ghost looked at Xiang Shaoyun and said, ”Young master, please take a seat.”

Green Ghost's eyes rippled with emotions, but he did not retort. Instead, he looked at Xiang Shaoyun with a mixed look. He could see that Xiang Shaoyun was basically a twin of his master's previous master, with Xiang Shaoyun being a younger version.

Is this young man really Lord Xiang who has undergone rebirth after stealing a body? thought Green Ghost inwardly.

Xiang Shaoyun rejected the invitation. ”No. This is Sect Master Green Ghost's place. Either of you can be seated there. As for me, forget it.”

”Young master, you're my young master while he's my disciple. If you don't take a seat there, none of us will dare to sit there. Don't worry. Green Ghost won't have any objections,” said Devouring Ghost seriously.

After a slight hesitation, Green Ghost agreed, ”Yes, young master, please take a seat.”

He had absolute trust in his master. Although this youth was only a King, he definitely had a terrifying background. Otherwise, the Four Great Ancient Academies wouldn't have tried to recruit him at the same time.

Xiang Shaoyun ignored Devouring Ghost. Rather, he looked at Green Ghost and said, ”I will only sit there when I have enough strength to obtain the recognition of Sect Master Green Ghost. As for now, both of you probably have a lot of catching up to do. Have a chat. I'll wait outside.”

Although Xiang Shaoyun had Devouring Ghost's recognition, he still knew himself well. Green Ghost would definitely have a problem with him sitting on the throne just like that. Devouring Ghost wanted to say something, but when he saw Xiang Shaoyun's firm look, he agreed, ”Alright. You can take a stroll in the area while I catch up with Green Ghost.”

Green Ghost immediately commanded, ”Lady Shura, come in. Attend to Young Master Xiang politely. If anything causes him to be dissatisfied, you will be punished.”

The power surrounding the hall vanished as Lady Shura stepped in deferentially, ”Yes, sect master.”

She then looked at Xiang Shaoyun and said, ”This way, please.”

Xiang Shaoyun nodded and followed her out of the hall. After they left, Green Ghost sealed the hall again. Devouring Ghost did not stop him. Instead, he walked toward the throne and sat down.

Looking at Green Ghost, he said, ”I know you have a lot of questions. I will tell you everything. Just listen.”

Green Ghost thus focused on listening as Devouring Ghost told the story of everything that had happened after the war, including how he was imprisoned at the s.p.a.ce beneath the soul spring, how he was saved by Xiang Shaoyun, and how he turned into his current form.

After listening to all that, Green Ghost said guiltily, ”Your disciple is useless for being unable to help when you were suffering all these years, master.”

”No, all that does not matter. So long as I get a chance to start anew, I will slowly take my revenge,” said Devouring Ghost with a sharp glint in his eyes.
