After taking a deep look at Su Yu, Jiyu and Hanxuan exchanged a few words, then stood up and bade farewell. "Junior Sister, please recuperate from your injuries. I'll take my leave first."
With that, the group of five left quickly. Judging from their pace, they seemed to be in a hurry.
Gongsun Wuxie curled her lips and said, "They came in a hurry and left in a hurry. Are their butts on fire? Or did you drop something? "
Bai Shanliang, who was sitting beside Su Yu, looked at him meaningfully, then said leisurely, "They might not have lost anything, but they must have lost two people. Their group of seven is missing two people."
As he spoke, Bai Shanliang couldn't help but look at Su Yu. "Junior Brother Su, do you know where those two people are?"
Hearing this, everyone fell into deep thought.
That's right! Before Su Yu left, he was brimming with confidence that he would surely be able to save Xue Qi. Moreover, he had even warned them to consult the elders about this matter.
Then, just as Su Yu had expected, the ghost was born!
Could it be that he had sensed everything in advance? Or, could it be that Su Yu had arranged everything?
The two people who went missing seemed to be the Divine Masters who were inextricably linked to the Shao Family.
It was difficult for them to believe that their disappearance had nothing to do with Su Yu, especially after Su Yu had done such a strange thing.
"Which two people?" Su Yu asked, his eyes wide.
Gongsun Wuxie giggled and said, "It's the two inner sanctum disciples who want to deal with Big Brother Yuxian. They are in the inner sanctum, and they are in the same camp as the Shao Family. We all know that they came here to deal with you."
"Oh, you mean them?" Su Yu came to a sudden realization, but he shook his head and said, "I don't know. I've never seen it before. Maybe he's looking for treasures somewhere."
The four demons found it hard to believe Su Yu's words, but they still couldn't prove that it was Su Yu who had killed the two of them.
They exchanged glances and did not continue to pursue the matter. Otherwise, if they found out the truth, Su Yu would be in deep trouble.
As an outer disciple, it wouldn't be enough even if he died ten times over for causing the death of an inner disciple.
Night fell, and the next morning came.
"Su Yuxian, follow this old man to pay your respects to the Manor Lord." Bai Yang suddenly arrived.
Manor Lord Zhang had returned? Su Yu's heart skipped a beat. In that case, the Palace Master, Mo Tianxuan, had come!
Su Yu followed Bai Yang and quickly entered the Elegant Spirit Manor, then went to meet Manor Master Zhang in a side palace.
The Eight Great Elders, as well as the Elders who had come to greet the Palace Lord, were all present in the hall. Mo Tianxuan was the only one missing.
The fact that Manor Master Zhang was seated at the head of the table was enough to prove that Mo Tianxuan was not present.
Could it be that she disdains to participate in such a small meeting?
"Su Yuxian, tell me everything from the discovery of the cave to the discovery of the ghost's hiding place," Manor Master Zhang asked solemnly.
Su Yu explained everything to them one by one. Of course, most of it was just a compilation.
After listening, the entire hall became solemn.
"Then, what about the white-haired youth? Tell me about him as well." Manor Master Zhang leaned forward and looked at Su Yu. He was even more concerned about him than if he had just discovered a ghost.
Su Yu was slightly surprised, but he still dragged out the excuse he had prepared beforehand.
In any case, no one would associate the powerful Su Yu with a white-haired old man like him.
After he finished speaking, the crowd began to whisper among themselves. They were extremely curious about the mysterious white-haired young man.
"Fine, you should go back and rest." Manor Master Zhang took a deep look at Su Yu.
Su Yu nodded and left the hall as if nothing had happened.
After he left, Bai Yang wore a pensive look as he asked, "Manor Master, since the Palace Lord had some matters to attend to and left, then he didn't come to our Elegant Spirit Manor. What should we do about this matter?"
It seemed like Manor Master Zhang was lost in his thoughts, and he was startled for a moment before he came back to his senses. "Well, the Palace Lord's whereabouts are unknown, so we should suppress this matter for the time being. It won't be too late to discuss it after we get news of the Palace Lord's whereabouts. As for the white-haired youth, we should pay more attention to him."
Well? The elders were all curious about this matter. It seemed like the white-haired youth, Su Yu, was more important than the Ghost Clan's matter in Manor Master Zhang's eyes.
"Manor Master, is the white-haired youth's status special?" Bai Yang asked.
Manor Master Zhang nodded solemnly. "Although I can't be sure, we must still pay attention to him. According to the latest news, the Blood Emperor, the Bright Light Guard's First Guard, was killed. "
Boom!
It seemed like a myriad of thunderbolts had struck the elders, and they were all overwhelmed with shock.
"The Blood Emperor? One of the Central Prefecture's ten great experts? That's impossible. Apart from a prefecture's king, who would have the confidence to kill him? "All of the elders were in disbelief.
Manor Master Zhang said in a deep voice, "I don't believe it either. However, the news came from the upper echelons of the inner sanctum. One of the upper echelons hiding in the Central Prefecture saw it with his own eyes. The Blood Emperor was chased for billions of miles and across countless cities. Many people witnessed it with their own eyes!"
"Later on, the news of the Blood Emperor's death spread from the Central Prefecture. It seems to be true!"
Suddenly, the hall fell into a dead silence.
All Creations could be said to be at the pinnacle of the pyramid of the Nine Prefectures. Those who could kill them were few and far between.
As for the Blood Emperor, he was an expert among experts. His name had shaken the entire Central Prefecture. How could he have been chased to death?
"Villa Master, may I ask who did this?" Bai Yang's heart trembled. The person who was able to hunt down the Blood Emperor must be a peerless and ruthless person in the Nine Prefectures.
Manor Master Zhang said, "I don't know, but rumor has it that he is a white-haired youth who is covered in blood clouds! His weapon of choice is a bead, and it has smashed the Blood Emperor into meat paste many times! "
The white-haired youth, Bead!
Su Yu's figure appeared in the minds of all the elders present.
Could it be him? It was just that the disparity between their power was too great!
"This matter happened two months ago, but it was kept a secret. It's fine that you all know about it, but you mustn't spread it to anyone else. Alright, the meeting is adjourned," Manor Master Zhang said.
Bai Yang and the others shuddered upon hearing this.
As Manor Master Zhang left, Bai Yang asked in surprise, "Manor Master, there are still many matters that require your approval. Where are you going?"
An odd glint flickered in Manor Master Zhang's eyes as he turned his head around and instructed them expressionlessly, "I have some private matters to take care of. So, don't be impatient."
After he spoke, he strode away.
After Su Yu left the side palace, his expression became gloomy, and he quickly went back to his tent.
Bing Wuxin, Xue Qi, and the others were cultivating quietly in the tent.
"Well, why did you come back so quickly?" Bai Shanliang was surprised by this, so he stood up and said, "That's fine. Today is the last day, so let's hurry up and go to excavate the mountain. I'm still waiting to recoup my losses."
Gongsun Wuxie chuckled. "That's right! Brother Yuxian, you owe me a Ghost Clan's magical treasure."
However, a grave look appeared on Su Yu's face as he said in a deep voice, "If we don't leave now, we will lose our lives. Let's quickly escape!"
The five people's hearts tightened when they heard him.
Su Yu's current expression made them feel that something was amiss.
"Junior brother, what happened? Can you explain it clearly?" Bai Shanliang's smile disappeared, and his expression became serious again.
Bing Wuxin snorted. "If you dare to play tricks on us, I will kill you with my sword."
"Brother Yuxian, quickly tell us! You are making me so nervous!" Tian Renyao came over and spoke bashfully.
It could be seen that they were all frightened by Su Yu's expression.
Fright appeared in Su Yu's eyes as he said, "We didn't manage to exterminate all of the ghosts, and there is still a malicious ghost hiding in the Elegant Spirit Mountain. It's extremely dangerous, so we must quickly escape."
There was still another malicious ghost? The five people's expressions became grave. They had personally witnessed the outcome of Bai Yang and the others attacking the ghost together.
Even though the five of them had attacked a single person, they had still suffered a crushing defeat.
If a young expert hadn't passed by, the five of them would have already become the ghost's food.
Yet, Su Yu was now saying that there was still another one!
"All the more reason for us not to escape. Let's inform the manor immediately. It just so happens that Manor Lord Zhang has returned. With him around, we should be able to easily deal with an evil ghost of the same level as last time." Xue Qi was slightly surprised by this. After all, Su Yu had already thought of this, and fleeing was obviously the stupidest method.
If he was targeted by a hidden malicious spirit, wouldn't he die even faster?
However, Su Yu's face darkened. "It is precisely because of his return that we need to escape immediately!"
"Because … he is the hidden malicious spirit! There are ghosts with painted skin as well! "Su Yu's words exposed the heavenly secret!
Shengge had just informed them of the shocking news.
He had always thought that the ghostly aura that Shengge had sensed belonged to Jiu An.
However, when she met Villa Master Zhang just now, Shengge actually said that the aura was still there!
Su Yu had already met the other elders alone, so Sheng Ge hadn't warned him. It was only when Manor Master Zhang returned that she immediately warned him.
It was enough to explain everything!
Su Yu then associated the grotto altar with the formation that could only be set up by All Creation Realm ghosts. This made him even more certain that Jiu An was just one of the hidden Painted Skins. The most terrifying Painted Skin was the Manor Master himself!
He was the greatest ghost of all! In fact, he might even possess the power of an All Creation Realm expert!
If they didn't flee now, it would be too late!
Bai Shanliang and the others didn't get the chance to be startled, as the space in their tent suddenly froze.
Everyone was bound by the space and couldn't budge an inch!
"Spatial control! This is the All Creation Realm's power!" Xue Qi cried out involuntarily in shock.
Swoosh!
A cold wind blew over, and a middle-aged man, who had his hands clasped behind his back, appeared at the center of the tent like a ghost.
He wore a warm smile on his face as he stood calmly in the middle of everyone.
"Hehe, Su Yuxian, why did you ruin my plans?" The man turned around, and it was obvious that this was Manor Master Zhang's face.
However, his human eyes had already turned into a pair of flickering purple flames.
His whole body was emitting an eerie ghostly energy.
"Manor Master Zhang, no, you are a ghost!" Bai Shanliang's gaze became grave as he spoke in surprise.
The other people were also shocked. The Elegant Spirit Manor's Manor Master, who was one of the Red Blood Palace's higher-ups, was unexpectedly a ghost wearing a human's skin!
This was completely beyond their expectations!
This matter had taken a sudden turn for the worse, and it was difficult for them to accept it.
Manor Master Zhang didn't pay attention to them, and he just looked at Su Yu with a faint smile. "I like smart people, and if you are willing, I can turn you into a ghost, just like Jiu An. You have already witnessed his power after he turned into a ghost. What do you think? "
Su Yu's gaze flickered. "What if I refuse?"
Manor Master Zhang shook his head with a faint smile. "You don't have the right to refuse, because if you do, you will die."
He then added, "But, before you die, I really want to know how you managed to discover my identity." Manor Master Zhang examined Su Yu, and his gaze suddenly fell on Su Yu's wrist. His eyes then lit up as he said, "Interesting! I can sense a wisp of my clansman's aura in your body. It seems like you have subdued one of my clansmen. It's no wonder that you were able to detect Jiu An's location and my identity."
