Evil of all ages

Chapter 197 The Thief
When Huang Taichu asked her a question, Li Feiyan knew that he was tacitly agreeing with what she had said.

Admit that you are the Demon King!

This made her fall into deep thought. She thought the other party would pretend to be stupid for a while before admitting that he was the Ghost King, but she didn't expect him to be so straightforward.

The more decisive you are, the fewer things in the world the other party can be wary of.

Threatening someone like that is tantamount to courting death.

We can only guess what he wants.
After pondering for a while, Li Feiyan became depressed.

She couldn't guess what the other person wanted.

She didn't know what conditions she could offer in exchange for the other party's help.

There are just too many mysteries surrounding the other party.

She only knew the other party's apparent identity and guessed that he was the Ghost King; otherwise, she knew nothing.

I don't know why he has such terrifying abilities at such a young age.
I don't know why someone like him would stay in prison so peacefully.

This is a complete information asymmetry.

Making a deal with an unknown entity left her feeling completely passive.

What do you want in order to help me?

An existence that can make even the most powerful and supreme masters bow down.

And it wasn't just one; it was three Grandmasters who bowed and scraped before him.

For someone like that, becoming emperor wouldn't be difficult at all.

But he didn't even become emperor; he just stayed in this imperial prison.

What else in the world could move him?

The passive Li Feiyan could only ask the other party what they wanted.

Huang Taichu shook his head slightly.

This indicates that Li Feiyan cannot provide what he desires.

Li Feiyan panicked when she saw this.

"Go back."

Before she could speak, Huang Taichu's voice came through.

"why?"

"Can't a woman be an empress? Or should she not be an empress?"

Li Feiyan felt that Huang Taichu didn't help her because he thought she was a woman and shouldn't be emperor.

Huang Taichu: "I can do it."

Li Feiyan: "Then why can't I?"

Huang Taichu: "Because it is your destiny, you are not destined to be an empress."

Li Feiyan was taken aback when she heard Huang Taichu mention destiny.

"I don't believe in destiny."

"If there are constants, then there are variables."

"And you are the only variable, am I right?"

Li Feiyan reacted and asked.

Huang Taichu neither refuted nor spoke.

Because Li Feiyan was right, he could indeed easily rewrite other people's lives.

"help me"

"If I get that position, I can grant you three requests unconditionally."

"Even during my reign, if you want my throne, I can give it to you."

Li Feiyan made a promise.

"Hehehe..."

Huang Taichu couldn't help but chuckle.

Li Feiyan didn't know what the other person was laughing about, but she looked at him expectantly, hoping that he would agree to help her.

"You're too naive, and that's not fun."

"He's nowhere near as good as your man."

"Let's go, I'm not interested in your childish games."

With a gentle wave of his hand, Huang Taichu sent Li Feiyan and the four shadows behind her vanishing into thin air and being transported to the entrance of the Heavenly Prison.

Even though it was guessed that he was the Ghost King, Huang Taichu was not afraid that Li Feiyan would spread rumors everywhere.

Because Li Feiyan wasn't stupid.

At the entrance of the imperial prison
Without even blinking, the scene changed, and Li Feiyan and her companion found themselves outside the Heavenly Prison.

Their faces showed disbelief.

Is this the power of ghosts and gods?
With a gentle wave of his hand, he moved the person outside the prison.

This is no longer invincible.

Even if the army were to deal with him, he could probably be easily moved away.

If he were ruthless, he could have moved the army to the edge of a cliff and let them fall into the abyss.

Alternatively, find an active volcano and throw your entire army into the lava.

Invincible!

Not to be provoked!

Now Li Feiyan finally understands her husband's brilliant judgment in solving cases.

Why did they run into a wall at the Southern City Prison?

Why is she so fixated on Huang Taichu? And why did she suddenly change her mind and marry her sister to him?

It turns out her husband was the one who saw things most clearly.

"Princess... this..."

Shadow Four, in a panic, asked the princess what to do next.

"go back"

Back at the mansion, Shadow Three arrived.

"Your Highness, our men still haven't found Bai Donglai's whereabouts."

Li Feiyan felt only disappointment upon hearing this, but was not surprised. After all, if a Grandmaster-level expert wanted to hide, how could they be found so easily?

"When the First Prince and the Third Prince's men couldn't find Bai Donglai, they got anxious and tried to use those schoolchildren to force Bai Donglai to show himself."

"As a result, all the people they sent died of poisoning for no apparent reason."

"We can't figure out how the poisoning happened."

“Some people didn’t believe in the superstition and sent people to try it, but the result was the same: they all died of poisoning for no apparent reason.”

"Then, as more and more people died, no one dared to touch those schoolchildren anymore."

Shadow Three continued to report.

Upon hearing this, Li Feiyan sat quietly, lost in thought.

"Am I really not destined for that?"

After a long while, Li Feiyan asked herself the question.

No, I'm just not ready.

Li Feiyan still didn't believe in fate, but she knew deep down that her strength was not enough.

So he gritted his teeth and gave up this opportunity, letting her people continue to develop in secret, waiting for the next chance.

鬼市
When Bai Donglai entered the Ghost Market, he saw that it was not only more prosperous than the outside world, but the clothing there also seemed to be a level above what the outside world was like.

In the past, almost everyone who entered the ghost market wore a mask, but now no one wears a mask anymore.

Especially the girls; it was rare to see girls appearing in the ghost market before.

What now?
The street is mostly lined with pretty girls, all of whom have come from outside.

The goal is: to shop, shop, shop!
Seeing girls in broad daylight, wearing what are called JK uniforms, bodycon skirts, skirts, stockings, etc., exposing their thighs and waists...

Even though he was a grandmaster with unwavering will, he was still astonished by this.

He inwardly criticized it as immoral, but his eyes were dazzled by the sight.

There's nothing I can do; he may criticize it, but he still enjoys watching it.

Driven by a thirst for knowledge about the ghost market, he began to wander around.

We eventually stopped at a place called the Swimming Club.

Seeing a large crowd gathered outside, and hearing them discussing that there was an underwear show inside, a place men longed for most.

What is the place men yearn for most?
Upon hearing this, Bai Donglai didn't believe it. He went up to ask and found out that the ticket cost one hundred taels of silver.

So expensive!

But one hundred taels is one hundred taels; he has plenty of money.

After entering.

Two hours later, he finally came out.

"It is indeed the place that men yearn for most. If there were no time constraints, I might..."

"Wait, how did I become so depraved?"

"No, I am a Grandmaster of unparalleled strength, with an unwavering martial will, not something that can be achieved through external means..."

Then he went to a foot massage parlor and didn't come out.

The next day

Someone used their light-footed skills to float in front of him.

"Such superb light-footed skills, are you a thief?"

There was a very skilled thief in the capital who specialized in stealing money from corrupt officials and the wealthy and unscrupulous, and then distributing it to the people in the slums.

This thief thus earned the nickname "The Thief."

Upon seeing this lightness skill, Bai Donglai not only guessed that he was a thief, but also that he was one of the Ghost Emperor's men.

If they weren't the Ghost Emperor's people, they wouldn't run up to him in broad daylight without even concealing their faces.

"I am a junior"

Mo Feiyu clasped his hands in a salute.

"Why did the Ghost Emperor send you here?"

"Could it be that I came to the Ghost Emperor's territory without informing him beforehand, and he took it as a provocation?"

"Did you send you here to get rid of me?"

Bai Donglai asked.

"Senior, please don't misunderstand. The Ghost Market is a place for doing business, and anyone is welcome to come."

Why would you kick the guests out?

Mo Feiyu quickly replied.

"That's good. I thought the Ghost Emperor was afraid that I would come and take his territory."

Bai Donglai laughed.

Mo Feiyu didn't say anything, but instead took out a piece of intelligence and showed it to Bai Dong.
