C71 (2/2)

I whispered a few words into Zhang Ziyuan's ear while lying down. Zhang Ziyuan smiled and nodded. I don't think I'm a ghost, but you're a ghost! ”

Shuo Yue really brought us to a barren mountain and wilderness. She really flew for a period of time on a plane, then went back to the train and went back to the car. We're probably very far from where we're supposed to be, right? However, it was understandable. If the Fengdu Ghost City was too close to the group of people, it would be very inconvenient, and it would be very troublesome if someone tried to barge into the Ghost City.

”Um, logically speaking, Fengdu Ghost City should be a very big place, why didn't I see anything?” I looked around. It was indeed just a desolate mountain range.

”Miss Su Su, don't be anxious.” Shuo Yue carefully surveyed the terrain, as though she had finally found the right place, and formed a seal with her hands, muttering some words. Finally, she shouted, ”Break!” It was as if the enchantments around him had been dispersed, revealing a huge city gate.

”Damn, it's so magical! There really is a city here!” I shouted again, unaware.

With another unsealing motion, the city gates slowly opened, revealing a sinister looking city.

”Let's go in. There shouldn't be any living creatures inside.” Shuo Yue pointed to the door and said.

I carefully looked at the inside of the door. It really did feel like a different world from the outside. The inside was more like a village than a city. There were also buildings inside, but they were surrounded by dense fog, making it hard to see everything clearly.

As we walked in, the strange feeling became even more intense. Although there weren't any living creatures inside, we could still imagine the time when the Ghost King still existed and ruled over this place.

The sky above Ghost City seemed to be covered in dark clouds and there was no sunlight to shine on it. The air was also humid and it felt like people would get eczema after a while.

Shuo Yue explained: ”Actually, the so-called Ghost City is actually just an illusion formed by the ghosts and souls that never disperse. It is originally not a physical city, but only an illusion created by them, and the Ghost King basically materialized this illusion as a base for their ambitions. But after the Ghost King went missing with heavy injuries, the Ghost City became ethereal again, and it is still an illusion now. Although there will still be ghosts that will pass through like this, they are mostly there to be reincarnated into the Yin Division through the gates of hell. ”

This world is really too large, is it not? Listening to Shuo Yue's words, this city is no different from a mirage?

After passing by some buildings that looked like residential areas, there was actually a palace that was even more imposing than the Great Hall of the Lingyin Temple. On the giant plaque was written with the words ”Sky Emperor's Treasure Hall”.

”Mother said she lives here now and misses me every day.” Shuo Yue looked at the palace, and could tell that he really wanted to see her mother. Although this mother had abandoned him since she was young, Shuo Yue did not resent her, but instead cherished the fact that she could always be with her mother.

”Just wait for me outside. I don't think it will be peaceful inside.” Shuo Yue stammered.

”You know it's not peaceful in here? Then you dare to go in by yourself? If something happens, we won't be able to come to your aid. ” What Zhang Shaowu said was the truth.

”I know that as well, but I really don't want to implicate you. Besides, she is my mother after all. Even if she wants my life, I can't not give it to her.” Shuo Yue shook her head.

”What nonsense are you saying? Stop fooling around, Miss Ruo Yun is still waiting for you to return, don't let her down! ” Right now, he could only lay Jiang Ruoyun out so that Shuo Yue would have some will to survive. If even he himself didn't care whether he lived or died, then no one could save him.

”I understand, you have done a lot. Lady Su Su, you are a good girl.” With that, Shuo Yue turned and walked into the Sky Emperor's Grimoire.

”Hey, what should I do?” I was worried.

”I'll just follow him,” Zhang Ziyuan said to me and Zhang Shaowu.

”Ah?” Why are you following him? Will they be discovered? ” I looked at Zhang Ziyuan's expression in surprise. I didn't feel like he was joking.

Zhang Ziyuan took out an item and handed it over to me. ”Put it on my ear.”

I took it. It looked like a headset, but it had a strange shape. I followed his instructions and put it on my ear. How could a ghost like you make such a high-tech thing? ”

”This is not a high-tech item, this is a treasure called Wind Catching Ear. This thing was originally a pair. No matter how far away they were, they could send each other a message, just like the phones we use today. However, this thing can only be transmitted between two of our Wind Catching Ears. Later I will secretly follow. I have a spirit body and can hide my body, so they shouldn't be able to discover me. ”

He never thought that Zhang Ziyuan had such a meticulous side to him. He probably had thought about it for a long time, ”This is a good idea! But you have to be careful too. ”

”Hmm, no problem. Although you guys are not going in, you can listen for any movements inside. If there are any problems, you can go in immediately to welcome them.”
