CH 48

Not all those who came to Hongye City to help the Ghost King were convinced by the Ghost King.

Many of them think that the Ghost King’s special only that he became famous a little earlier and his strength is a little stronger.

They felt they weren’t much worse than the Ghost King.

But now… two middle-level priests attacked together with two ninth-level warriors and many high-level warriors, and were completely captured by the Ghost King’s people?!

The most important thing is that there are still ninth-level warriors under the Ghost King?

Several senior warriors among the people who came secretly looked at the Ghost King with scars on his face.

Some people went up to talk: “Dude, what’s your name? When did you follow the Ghost King?” There are not many ninth-level warriors on the mainland. Where did this come from?

The Ghost King said: “My name is Xie Qing.” When did he follow the Ghost King? He is the Ghost King!

Ghost King’s subordinates: “…” This is their boss!

But why is their boss hiding his identity? For safety?

Who’s that person pretending to be their boss?

“Where’s the Ghost King?” Someone asked. Where did the “Ghost King” go?

“He has already handed over the matter here to me!” Ghost King said.

If it weren’t for Duan Changqing just now, if he didn’t die, he would’ve lost half his life. Not to mention Xie Yunnan, it is very likely that something would’ve happened to him.

So… even if Duan Changqing stole his identity, he could only admit it.

The group of people began to clean up the plantation.

The Ghost King’s confidants knew him, and he was naturally obedient, and when the others saw it, they also followed to help.

As for Xie Yunnan, after the fight was over, he ran upstairs quickly.

It was his first time seeing battle first hand, and was a little scared. But when he slashed towards Shi Haiyuan… The fear in his heart suddenly disappeared.

He even kind of liked the feeling of fighting.

He wants to get stronger!

“Changqing!” Xie Yunnan shouted when he went upstairs.

This staff dormitory was reinforced by Xia Qing before. At that time, Xie Yunnan didn’t understand why she did this, but now he understood.

If it hadn’t been reinforced, the house might have collapsed during the previous battle.

“Yunnan!” Duan Changqing came down from upstairs.

“It was my fault just now, you shouldn’t have stayed in the house.” The house was tilted, and Xie Yunnan was a little scared.

“I’m fine.” Duan Changqing said.

“Let’s go down quickly.” Xie Yunnan said again, he was afraid the house would collapse.

Xie Yunnan took Duan Changqing downstairs and saw the noise downstairs—there were too many newcomers.

And when the two of them came out of the house, everyone looked at them together with surprised faces.

Whether it’s Xie Yunnan or Duan Changqing, they’re all too outstanding.

Seeing this, the Ghost King pointed at Xie Yunnan and said, “This is my student, and next to him is his partner… My student is a priest.”

Xie Yunnan’s identity as a priest can be concealed.

But this is not necessarily a good thing.

Especially since Xie Yunnan and Duan Changqing are so good looking… If Xie Yunnan is an ordinary person, maybe someone will lash out.

In fact, some people really liked Xie Yunnan and Duan Changqing as soon as they saw them, and were ready to strike up a conversation.

But hearing that Xie Yunnan was a priest, they immediately stopped thinking about it.

They hate those big families and priests from Holy City, but they did not hate all the priests.

They are all warriors and have been wounded before, and need priests to heal them.

On the spot, someone said to the Ghost King: “Bro, you actually accepted a priest as a student?”

“Brother Xie, you are amazing!”

“Where did you get this priest?”

…

Another person approached Xie Yunnan: “This… Little Priest, can you help treat me?”

“My student was injured before and needs treatment. Feel free to open say price!”

“Mr. Priest, let’s exchange contact information?”

“Wait! It’s not time for this.” The Ghost King frowned, “We captured two priests and many high-level warriors. It’s impossible for them to not know this. It’s best to move as soon as possible now.”

Their top priority is to take down Hongye City.

The others also thought of this in an instant.

They have discussed this matter for a long time, and can move very quickly.

Normally if they seized a big city like Hongye City, they would not be able to stabilize it quickly. But recently the price of food in Hongye City has risen so quickly…

The people in the fringe areas are starving, and so are the people in the general district. Some people have even starved to death.

Relatively speaking, things are pretty good here.

The Ghost King’s plantation is not like other plantations that took advantage of the increase in prices. Instead, the surrounding people also got relief.

In addition, there are many plantations nearby, so people around can find things to fill their stomachs.

In the past, when harvesting old vegetables, leaves, or roots, the workers would crush and use them as fertilizer. But now they can sell them cheaply as food.

Before Xie Yunnan moved to the plantation, many people in their town boiled the leaves and roots of broccoli as food.

Like kale, the old leaves can be eaten, and so too can sweet potato vines.

In contrast, the lives of people in Hongye City were more difficult.

During this time, people from general districts often come to the fringes to pick up vegetable leaves.

Under such circumstances, if they attack the central district, ordinary people would not stop them at all.

The Ghost King and others discussed it.

Duan Changqing and Xie Yunnan could not intervene in such matters, and were responsible for guarding those who were arrested.

Duan Changqing had probably never seen high-level warriors or intermediate-level priests, so he kept walking around these people. His companion animal, the little chipmunk, jumped from one person to another.

An eighth-level warrior who came over as backup was a little worried when he saw this scene, and immediately asked “Xie Qing” to call the shots. “Will these people run away after they wake up?”

The eighth-level warrior is not young, so he didn’t have any lust for Duan Changqing, and only regarded him as a junior.

Now he was afraid that someone would wake up and slap Duan Changqing to death.

Hearing the words, the Ghost King replied, “No.”

Don’t know why, but now he has full confidence in Duan Changqing and always feels that Duan Changqing is omnipotent.

Duan Changqing is over there. Can those people wake up? No way!

The Ghost King said it so definitely, and the others didn’t ask any more questions.

However, at this moment, those people woke up one by one.

“Where’s the Ghost King?”

“You actually set a trap to ambush us!”

“You’d better let us go, otherwise…”

When these people woke up, they all scolded angrily, but…

After they cursed out loud, one by one, they immediately covered their heads and screamed in pain.

No, not only those who scolded out loud, but also those who didn’t scold.

“Changqing, are you okay?” Xie Yunnan quickly pulled Duan Changqing back. After these people woke up, Duan Changqing’s face turned pale, as if he was frightened.

“I’m fine.” Duan Changqing said.

He just took in too many demon slaves at once, and used too much divine sense, and couldn’t stand it.

Alas, this body is not too broken. He is a cultivator who has transcended calamity so collecting some little demon slaves that are barely at qi refinement should be trivial.

To sign a master-servant contract, theoretically speaking, both parties should be voluntary. But the difference in strength is too great, and one party has no resistance at all… so he can also force a contract.

To control these people, Duan Changqing directly ordered them not to hurt the people on the Ghost King’s side, followed by giving them priority to protect Xie Yunnan, and… listen to the Ghost King’s orders.

And suffering headaches is of course, because they want to hurt the Ghost King and others.

“What happened to these people? What did you do? Give them poison?” The eighth-level warrior was stunned.

Ghost King: “…” How could they give these people poison?

As for the situation of these people… After the mercenary from before suddenly became very obedient, he asked Duan Changqing what was going on.

Duan Changqing didn’t tell him the specific reason, but told him… he could order these people.

The Ghost King tried: “You all get up and form a line.”

After he finished speaking, those people actually stood up and quickly formed a line!

The crowd was stunned.

Meng Yan, Jiao Qinyun, and the rest were also extremely surprised.

They obviously don’t want to do it, so why did they still do it?

What’s going on?

Did the person in front of them confuse them?

Yes, it must be like this. This person is poisonous! Not only makes them fall in love with him, but also makes them listen to him uncontrollably!

This man is too nasty!

These people wanted to smash the Ghost King into ten thousand pieces, but they couldn’t do anything, and even had a splitting headache because of such thoughts.

The Ghost King said again: “Squat down.”

Meng Yan and the others all squatted down.

The Ghost King gasped, and suddenly felt… Duan Changqing was really kind to him.

He targeted Duan Changqing before, and Duan Changqing only beat him!

Thanks to him having a good son!

Otherwise… he might become like these people?

For thousands of years, was the High Priest able to control the Holy City because of such means?

It’s a pity. The current High Priest is too weak, and his subordinates betrayed him… Duan Changqing may be one of those who betrayed the High Priest.

The Ghost King didn’t think Duan Changqing was a High Priest at all. Everyone knew that the High Priest was weak, but Duan Changqing was pretending to be weak! .

And according to the news he inquired, the High Priest is dead.

What’s more, if the High Priest is really so strong… The previous rebellion was impossible.

The Ghost King was a little afraid, but the others were even more afraid – afraid of the Ghost King.

Who is this man? Even controlling ninth-level warriors!

There were people who were a little dissatisfied with the disappearance of the “Ghost King” and “Xie Qing” taking command, but now… they don’t dare to be dissatisfied at all.

Seeing this, the Ghost King said, “We’ll go now… let them take the lead.”

Everyone: “…” Are you kidding? Let these people lead the charge?

But the Ghost King’s words held true. As soon as he finished speaking, Meng Yan and others turned to leave, as if they were going to attack Hongye City immediately.

At the same time, in the central district of ​​Hongye City, many people were waiting for Meng Yan and co. to return triumphantly.

The name of this chapter sounds raunchy. XD
