Chapter 573: Chapter 62: The Inherently Evil Woman_3
“Hmph.” Xue Ren’s displeasure was evident instantly as he glared coldly at White Impermanence.
In the Era of Dharma Extinction, the Netherworld was empty. This Yin Ghost, having gleaned the ways of White Impermanence from sowhere, had cultivated over the years and achieved so climate. Unfortunately, after being appointed as the Great Commander by the Ghost King, he spent all his days scheming against other commanders, which was quite annoying.
Xue Ren had long been loyal to this Yin Ghost, hence he usually indulged him. Now, however, he seed like a fool who couldn’t differentiate between public and private matters, certainly not as clever and sensible as the human cultivators who considered the bigger picture.
“Alright.” Xue Ren said decisively, “Let’s first break through the Paperman workshop, capture the Ghost Mother, and then we’ll settle the rest.”
White Impermanence retracted his long tongue, bowed, and retreated silently.
His suspicion about Chen Lingyun was simple: this woman had weak cultivation but strong cunning—it was impossible for her not to understand the principle of “when the birds are gone, the good bow is hidden.”
Once Xue Ren unified the Nine Serenities Netherworld, this woman’s value would be gone. Coupled with her lack of strength, she would definitely be at Xue Ren’s disposal. Therefore, from a malicious point of view, White Impermanence believed that this woman would definitely not assist Xue Ren wholeheartedly in taking down the Paperman workshop; she surely had so sinister plot up her sleeve.
But he had no proof.
The woman’s value was there, and the so-called conspiracy was just his speculation—Xue Ren would absolutely not believe him. He could only apply so preventive asures and be wary.
Thinking this, White Impermanence looked towards Chen Lingyun again.
Chen Lingyun gave him a gentle smile, her eyes curving as if completely unaffected by his hostility.
————————
The neutral group hiding underground was divided into three categories: one was the ghost cultivators who refused to pledge allegiance to Xue Ren, another was civilians soul with no mana, and the last were modern villagers from the real world, each group sticking to their own, not interacting with the others.
Li Minghu had just finished recording these villagers’ oral wills, and her phone battery was nearly dead.
“Alright.” She stood up, and spoke to Yan Yu telepathically, “Sorry to keep you waiting. What’s next?”
“I need to think this through.” Yan Yu responded.
This ti, the Netherworld Mysterious Realm was different from the second layer of the Wuyi Mountains Mysterious Realm. The enemies in the realm not only had Hua Mansion Stage cultivation but also possessed spiritual wisdom, unlike puppets who could be easily lured out and destroyed one by one.
If one could orchestrate an ambush, gradually undermine their forces, and start by killing the Ghost King and then the Ghost Mother, Yan Yu thought it was not impossible. However, this plan would take too long and be very troubleso; a prolonged ti ant unpredictable risks, especially since his Minghu’s body might not hold up.
Considering that the Ghost King and Ghost Mother were antagonistic towards each other, if he could cause them to mutually destroy each other, it would simplify things trendously… Damn! Where is Ling Yun when I need her most? Now is the ti for her cunning!
He shared his thoughts with Li Minghu. The Valkyrie pondered for a mont and coughed as she spoke:
“Hmmm… The thinking is solid, but the Ghost Mother… she’s thinking of using us against the Ghost King, which clearly she prefers to avoid a direct confrontation.”
“Exactly.” Yan Yu said, “If there’s a way to provoke the Ghost King into attacking the Ghost Mother, forcing her to reveal her strength and engage, then there shouldn’t be a problem.”
“So we could try making contact with the Ghost King first.” Li Minghu concluded, “But we just battled them, so it might not be easy to communicate now.”
“How about this.” Yan Yu suddenly had an idea, “I’ll see if I can sneak into the depths of Evil Ghost Street; maybe I can find the control center of the Mysterious Realm. If not, at least I can gather so intelligence, and then see how we can start liaising with the Ghost King’s camp.”
“I’ll go too.” Li Minghu said.
“I’m not comfortable with you coming along.” Yan Yu said.
“I’m not comfortable letting you go alone.” Li Minghu said.
“Are you two showing off your love?” The little girl who had led the way earlier suddenly popped out from sowhere and asked innocently.
The two of them were montarily speechless, but then they heard the little girl say:
“This kind of scene is often on TV, where the male lead tells the female lead to run and leave him behind, but the female lead refuses to leave… Anyway, please make a decision quickly; it’s painful for us to watch.”
Li Minghu turned her head and saw that the ghosts in the distance, whether seated or standing, were indeed watching them, as if they were spectators at a village show.
Even though she was normally composed, she couldn’t help blushing at this mont and quickly said:
“I must go with you. If you don’t agree, I’ll just follow you secretly.”
“Yay!” The little girl clapped her hands and cheered, “Let her co, let her co!”
Yan Yu was sowhat embarrassed and glared at her sharply.
ddleso brat, it’s none of your business!
