Meet the Gentleman

Chapter 572

In the village.

There was a dark chaos collapsing, and bursts of noise were heard.

Grandpa was so shocked that he couldn't recover for a long time. After a while, he asked in confusion: "Since the evil ghost is taboo, why did it come to my small village? It, it seems to be chasing me and Jiu, this, this shouldn't be. Jiu and I are just ordinary people. What is there for it to chase?"

Although he was the village's priest and a wizard at the wizard level, he was quite famous within a radius of two hundred miles.

However, in the entire Wushan Territory, he is just a small figure.

Ajiu is just an ordinary person.

Then why did the "taboo" hunt them down?

However, the Soul-Chasing Marquis did not answer, but just asked them to go to Wushan as soon as possible, and then disappeared into the dark chaos.

Grandpa stared into the darkness and chaos, his brows gradually furrowed.

When the legendary Taboo was hunting them down, the Soul-Chasing Marquis, who was once one of the eight hundred princes of Dayi Shang, was actually trying his best to protect them...

Something is obviously wrong.

At this time, Grandpa's eyes fell on Ajiu. Could it be because of Ajiu?

Otherwise, why would the great Dayi Shang Zhuihun Hou protect the village for more than ten years? But when the "taboo" devoured hundreds of people in the village, Zhuihun Hou was indifferent, and when Ajiu was in danger, he did not hesitate to show up and fight for his life?
This is obviously to protect Ajiu.

He was just along for the ride.

After a while, Grandpa looked at the village which had mostly collapsed and said, "Ajiu, go pack up some valuables. We are going to the Holy Mountain."

"Grandpa, are we really going to the Holy Mountain?"

Ajiu was a little reluctant to leave. After all, the village was her home, the place where she was born and raised.

"That's all."

Grandpa sighed and walked towards his stone house.

Unfortunately, the stone house had already collapsed, and was even turned into powder during the battle between Soul Chaser and Taboo.

Not long after they packed up some valuables and reluctantly left, the bronze-faced man and a blurry black shadow came to the village. The man and the ghost searched everywhere carefully.

"Third Prince, there doesn't seem to be anything suspicious in the village."

Half an hour later, the blurry shadow said.

At this time, the bronze-faced man also stopped searching, stood in front of a collapsed house with a frown, and carefully felt the ground under his feet.

He didn't sense any trace of imperial blood. Could it be that the girl didn't have imperial blood?

This made the bronze-faced man very disappointed, because the emperor's blood was what he valued most and what he dreamed of.

He sighed.

But, if it’s not the emperor’s blood, what could it be?
After all, this was something that the Ghost Lord cared about, so it must not be an ordinary thing, which made him quite curious. Although it was not the Emperor's Blood that he was looking for, it was at least of the same level as the Emperor's Blood, which was a small consolation.

"Third Prince, capture that girl and interrogate her?"

The blurry shadow said.

"Can Ghost Master defeat Soul Chaser?"

The bronze-faced man looked at the blurry black shadow and said lightly.

The blurry black figure was speechless for a moment, and after a long silence, he asked, "Will the Soul Chaser protect that girl at all times?"

"What if it is?"

The bronze-faced man looked around and said.

"That means the thing hidden on that girl is extraordinary. The Third Prince should take action immediately and not miss the opportunity."

The blurry shadow said.

The bronze-faced man frowned. It did make some sense, but how to break the impasse?
It seems that I should go back to the old way and find the emperor's blood to merge with it first. After I become the emperor's son, the Soul-Chasing Marquis will not stop me and may even take the initiative to attack me.

But where is the emperor's blood?

The bronze-faced man thought seriously and carefully recalled the places where the emperor had fought, to see if there was any emperor's blood shed.

Or, take a drop of the emperor's blood directly from the emperor's body? When this thought came to him, the bronze-faced man was shocked. This... should be courting death, right?
But once the thought came to him, he found it difficult to suppress it.

No!

Absolutely not!

This is courting death!

The bronze-faced man suddenly shook his head at this thought.

The thought is truly horrible.

Let’s not talk about whether the emperor is really dead or not. Even if he is really dead, he cannot desecrate it. Moreover, in the later years of the emperor’s life, terrible things happened to his body. Taking the emperor’s blood directly from his body may turn him into an evil ghost that is neither human nor ghost. This is still courting death.

Only pure imperial blood will do.

But the pure blood of the emperor...

The bronze-faced man frowned. Where can he find this?
The imperial family has no royal sons or daughters. Has the emperor never thought about the issue of offspring, or the issue of the successor to Dayi Shang?
This shouldn't be the case.

"Ghost Master, where did that girl go?"

The bronze-faced man came back to his senses from his thoughts and asked, since there was no news about the Emperor's Blood, he should first take a look at what was hidden on the girl.

"It should be heading to Wushan."

The blurry shadow said.

"Go to Wushan? Why go to Wushan?"

The bronze-faced man was somewhat surprised.

"It was the Soul Chaser who asked them to go, saying that only Wushan could protect them." The blurry black shadow asked with some doubt, "That's strange, is there a power in Wushan that can deal with the Ghost Lord? This shouldn't be possible. Isn't it said that since the saints retired, there are no saint realms in the world? How could there be one in Wushan?"

"There's obviously something wrong with the last sentence of Ghost Master."

Bronze face humane.

"Hmm? What's the problem?" The fuzzy black shadow was a little surprised and said, "The world does say so. Besides, since the saints retired, there is indeed no saint realm in the world."

"Isn't the Ghost Lord an entity in the Holy Realm?"

Bronze face humane.

"This……"

The fuzzy black shadow was stunned for a moment, and then explained: "They originally existed in the Holy Land, and now they are just resurrected."

“That explains the problem.”

The bronze-faced man frowned, and suddenly felt tremendous pressure. How could he reproduce the imperial power of Dayi Shang? After a moment of silence, he said, "Since the Ghost Lord can be born in the Saint Realm, then..."

"The Third Prince is saying that there are probably beings in the Saint Realm hidden in this world? Or, they are probably already in the Saint Realm, or will soon become so?"

The blurry black shadow was somewhat horrified.

If that's the case, how can we play this game? We can just admit defeat.

so.

The bronze-faced man needs to find the emperor's blood, become the emperor's son of Dayi Shang, and subdue the remaining power of Dayi Shang. Perhaps in the remaining power of Dayi Shang, there is a high possibility that the existence of the holy realm is hidden...

"Let's go and take a look at Wushan."

The bronze-faced man spoke calmly, then walked out of the village and headed towards Wushan.

Wushan is the sacred mountain of the Wu clan. It is rumored that the Wu clan originated from Wushan. Therefore, Wushan is the sacred and inviolable mountain of the Wu clan and no one can desecrate it.

The capital of the Wu clan is located at the foot of Wu Mountain. It is a huge and prosperous bluestone city.

The temple of the Wu clan is also located at the foot of Wu Mountain. It is also a huge bluestone temple. Many mysterious Wu clan priests live in it, who are in charge of the Wu clan's sacrifices, divination, funerals, capital relocation, conquests, etc.

The power lies with the Witch King.
