Chapter 557: Sand Dunes (2/2)

Although Lan had determined that there was a fight, he had not decided if they should look or stay away. He had already located Mo Lian thanks to the help that Xue Wei had given him, so he did not feel it humiliating to follow the lead of the young man.

In fact, he felt that he owed Xue Wei much from the way he had treated him throughout the years and the respect he had gotten in return, but he also understood that Xue Wei was not willing to listen to his words.

It would be much better to just remember all the feelings of gratitude within his heart and show with action how grateful he was.

The trademark sly smirk was everpresent on Lan's lips. Now that Mo Lian was not present, there was no reason to pretend to be an aggrieved and pitiful person. Although he truly felt himself quite pitiful for searching for his love for more than ten thousand years, he had long since accepted this.

Now that they had entered the special area, he completely let go of his aura and once again resembled a hedonistic young master who was not caring about anyone else than himself.

This was the expression that Xue Wei was most familiar with, and he could not help but chuckle slightly and shake his head in amusement. He did not dislike such a side of Lan, so he did not comment as he increased his speed to see who would win the battle that was ongoing in front.

The moment Lan and Xue Wei stepped at the top of the dune, their eyes focused on two figures fighting beneath them. When comparing their strengths to the other ghosts that they had come across up until now in the Ghost Realm, it was clear that they were both new to this world.

Their bodies were still translucent, and soul energy seemed to be leaking from their bodies throughout the battle. The soul energy was not being gathered by either of them; it was simply dissipating into thin air, making Xue Wei shake his head in regret. What a waste of good energy!

After focusing on the facial features of the two ghosts in front, Xue Wei found both of them unfamiliar, so he had no intention to participate in any battle. Instead, he sat down on the top of the dune and observed the action with interest.

These ghosts had lost all memories of their past life; they were also foreign to their new world, which made the whole situation somewhat confusing for them.

When one encountered another in such an environment, the first instinct should not be to fight but to exchange information, so why were they suddenly fighting to the point of desperation?

His brows furrowed as he felt a little confused. He understood the ghosts which came here for the purpose of a rapid increase in strength, but these two clearly had no basic understanding of the Ghost Realm. What were they doing here, and why were they fighting like this?
