It's the beauty that brings disaster. I'm also desperate.

Just now, Wei Lan was in the middle of the party, chatting and laughing, and the atmosphere was harmonious and joyful. Lu Man believed what Cheng Qian said and wanted to show off her beauty to the other three Yin generals... When she thought that she was the only one who recognized the truth at that time, her heart was filled with pride and pride.

If possible, she also wanted the beauty to take off her disguise and stun everyone!

Anyway, I have her to protect her, so who in the huge Renwang City would dare to target Fang Shengsheng?

Unfortunately, before Xia Li arrived, the city lord sent an urgent summons...

"...For some reason, our Niou City had reached an agreement with the envoys from Kamikawa City in the ghost realm, but when the envoys arrived at the inner city gate, the envoy suddenly died and his soul was scattered."

Xiang Yi spoke very quickly and made the matter clear in just a few words.

Xia Li also knew a little about this.

About seven days ago, an envoy from Kamikashige Castle, one of the five cities in the ghost realm, came to negotiate with Renwang Castle about the ownership of the Yinyu mining area in the Tongshan River area.

Today, Xizhou is no longer what it was 130 years ago. It has long been the world of ghosts.

Of the original twelve cities in Western Province, seven belonged to the Mist Region, and five were ruled by the Ghost Region…even though it sounds like seven is more than five, but in fact the seven cities in the Mist Region were divided into different regions and were an offensive and defensive alliance.

But the five cities in the ghost realm are ruled by one person, and it is because of that person's existence that the seven cities have to unite.

Can you imagine how strong it is?

Because of the existence of the Ghost Domain Master, the Seven Cities in the Mist Domain were able to join forces to fight back, but they were actually in a relatively weak position. Therefore, when the envoys from Shangbai City came to discuss the ownership of the Yinyu Mine Area, Renwang City actually suffered a small loss.

Fortunately, the ghost messenger was satisfied, so the matter was over without causing any disputes...

The four Yin generals who participated in the discussion naturally returned to their homes. However, Lü Man happened to want to show off her beautiful concubine, so they had a meal together.

Everything seemed to be going smoothly, but unexpectedly, the messenger from the ghost realm died suddenly in Renwang Castle.

Except for very few special cases, every ghost will be branded with a soul mark by the Yin General force to which they belong when they just leave the land of Yunyin. The soul mark will only dissipate after they are promoted to Yin General... The envoy from Shangbai City naturally also has a soul mark.

As soon as his soul was destroyed, the other side felt it immediately.

In Tushan State, killing an envoy was almost equivalent to declaring war, so the city lord's urgent summons must be in preparation for the upcoming war.

"Fang Shengsheng, do you feel like a storm is about to come?"

"...But don't be afraid. With the city lord and Manman and other powerful generals here, we don't have to worry about that."

Seeing Xia Li frowning in thought, Xiang Yi thought that he was secretly anxious and worried, so he spoke to comfort him.

"Really? You think so?"

The girl raised her eyebrows and thought to herself that this beautiful ghost really had no sense of crisis.

"of course."

"Manman is very powerful. She is now a third-class Yin general. The most important thing is our city lord..."

When it comes to the city lord, Xiang Yi becomes much more cautious.

He looked around and then suddenly leaned over to whisper in Shengsheng's ear.

"...Manman said that the city lord might be about to break through to the first-class Yin general!"

The orchid-like and musk-like breath gently fanned the girl's neck and behind her ears, causing her, who was not used to being too close to others, to subconsciously shrink her neck.

But at the same time.

The information in Xiang Yi's words made her pay special attention.

A first-class Yin general is a great Yin general.

Cultivation corresponds to the fourth realm in the martial realm.

This realm is called [Corundum Realm], which means "marrow enters nectar, bones are refined into diamond". A warrior in this realm can be called a master, and there was only one person in Xizhou.

——Chen Tuo.

That was the teacher of her 'husband' Ning Yun, whose wedding was interrupted halfway by an unknown person named Hua So-so, which resulted in her being unable to consummate the marriage.

Hua Who Who is one of the five beautiful...

When the Five Jinxiu were selected, they were all young people under the age of 30, and their cultivation was almost half-step grandmaster. Therefore, Chen Tuo was more powerful than Hua Shuangxue and other Five Jinxiu.

In other words.

If what Xiang Yi said at this moment was true, then the Lord of Renwang City was about to break through to the Grandmaster level. Such a terrifying strength would have been enough to dominate Xizhou a hundred years ago.

now.

He is only the lord of one of the seven cities, yet he is quite tolerant towards the ghost realm.

"How strong are the forces and powers of the ghosts?"

"Is there really no hope for the people of Tushan Country..."

The girl felt heavy in her heart.

Although she was a ghost, the light of humanity in her heart had not been extinguished. She did not have any feelings of hating humans or taking pleasure in killing human warriors.

She follows her instincts and identifies herself as a 'human'.

And ghosts are the aliens!

Chapter 39: Calling You Sister, Do You Dare to Respond?

"Xiang Yi, are all the mayors of the seven cities in the Mist Region so powerful?"

"what!"

The beautiful ghost was stunned, somewhat confused.

She found that she could never understand Fang Shengsheng's train of thought. Logically speaking, upon hearing that the city lord was very powerful, shouldn't the first thing she thought of was, are we safe with such a great master protecting us?

"Why would you think of asking such a question?"

After considering his words for a moment, Xiang Yi suddenly spoke again without waiting for the other party to answer.

"...Fang Shengsheng, I always feel that you are very wary of other people, even... hostile. Whether it's Manman or the Lord Mayor I just mentioned, have you ever suffered any particularly miserable persecution in your life?"

"Of course, I don't mean to laugh at you, I just want to tell you not to worry. At least in Lu Mansion, we can protect you..."

——Oh my God, what am I talking about!

—Protection or something, I must be crazy.

Under Xia Li's strange gaze, Xiang Yi's voice became lower and lower.

Mei Yinhun lowered her head unnaturally, not daring to look directly at Xia Li. Because of this, she did not see the fierce light that flashed across the girl's eyes.

"Xiang Yi."

At this time, Xia Li's voice sounded faintly.

"Ok?"

"It's very rude of you to make random guesses about others like this."

"Lady Lu Man led me out of Yunyin and saved me from the pain of soul branding. She is also so beautiful and heroic. In fact... in fact, I fell in love with her at first sight. How could I have any vigilance or hostility towards her?"

Xia Li had a resentful look on his face, as if he had no one to confide his troubles to, and there was a hint of shyness in his eyes.

Xiang Yi believed it to be true and all his doubts disappeared.

But at the same time, a dull pain arose and lingered in her heart for a long time, making it difficult for her to breathe.

--Yes.

——Fang Shengsheng is Manman’s woman, I…what on earth am I thinking…? !

Her thoughts were confused for a moment.

But even so, it is difficult to hide the frustration in my heart.

"right."

"Since Lady Lu Man and the others have left, shouldn't we go back home now?"

After spending some time together, Xia Li has a better understanding of Xiang Yi.

Feeling that the other party believed what she said, she immediately changed the subject without leaving a trace.

"No no no!"

"Manman said that even though the banquet has been cancelled, the food and drinks have been prepared, so let's enjoy them."

Hearing this, Xia Li's eyes turned.

——Huh?

——This Lu Man is quite considerate. If she were the kind of climbing trumpet creeper, she might really be touched.

Too bad she isn't.

"So, the luxurious Wei Lan Ju will be open to you and me tonight?"

"Ah."

Xiang Yi responded.

The voice was a little small, and she just realized this, and a hint of joy flashed through her eyes.

"Then...sister, please go first?"

Xia Li changed his previous attitude and suddenly became much closer.

She called Xiang Yi "sister", as if they were really good sisters who shared the same husband. Her left hand covered the right lapel, making a gesture of "you go first".

This posture is elegant and natural, as if it has been done thousands of times.

Today, she had already dressed up...

The hair is tied up in black and the hairpin is decorated with a phoenix.

She wore a black embroidered dress, a pair of jade pendants, and a blue and green brocade, which made her look very noble. Even the most ignorant people would wonder in their hearts whether the person they saw was born into a wealthy family.

It was because the girl's makeup was so gorgeous that Xiang Yi felt upset after seeing it clearly.

Moreover, after being kissed secretly in the carriage that time, she always felt that Fang Shengsheng's appearance was really strange. Her eyebrows and eyes should not be so ordinary. They should be the pair of enchanting peach blossoms that she saw at a glance.

Yes!

Xiang Yi knew that she was delusional and that she must be seriously ill...

But it's still out of control.

Especially after Fang Shengsheng was dressed up, she took one look at her and automatically imagined what she saw in a trance... The closer she got to her, the faster her heart beat, because it was a beautiful thing she had never seen before.

"Sister, sister, please go first."

Xiang Yi's tongue was a little tied.

Fang Shengsheng called her "sister", and the clear and pleasant voice almost melted her on the spot.

The beautiful ghost replied subconsciously, but in fact, she had no idea where she was at the moment, and what she said...

"Since sister is so polite, why don't we go in together?"

When she said this, Xia Li suddenly took Xiang Yi's arm. She squinted her eyes and smiled, like a female fox wagging her tail.

Ever since Xiang Yi said that shocking thing, she realized that she had underestimated him before... Originally, she didn't take Xiang Yi seriously. In fact, not to mention Xiang Yi, even Lu Man was just a tool for her to use.

All Xia Li was thinking about was figuring out the overall situation around him, how to protect himself, and how to leave after having enough power to protect himself.

Later.

In order to find out the news about Xia Ye, her stepfather treated her quite well when he was alive. He would always think of her and bring home any good things from afar.

If Xia Ye died, she should collect the body.

If he is dead and becomes a ghost, it is time for the father and daughter to be reunited.

The key is.

Xia Ye often said that our family has a set of family skills, which is one of the best skills in the world. Unfortunately, my daughter can't accumulate qi and blood, so according to the ancestral teachings of the Xia family, I can't teach her...

Seven days ago, as soon as the air leakage problem was solved, Xia Li began to think about that unique skill.

She once asked Hua Shuangxue to investigate Xia Ye. Although the other party was evasive, she eventually knew about the bad things that happened back then. She also realized that the so-called family martial arts skills were not simple.

That.

It is a complete internal energy technique!

Tushan State’s martial arts are very precious, and three of them are the most precious.
