"Is that all?"
Amidst the commotion, Esders passed through the crowd and appeared beside Ryuga. He asked him in a bored tone.
"That's enough."
Ryuga nodded. "This ghost is one of the 12 Ghost Moons. He wouldn't appear here for no reason. Most likely, he was sent here by Ghost Dancer Wu Chi to secretly investigate my whereabouts. As long as I appear, he will definitely report to Ghost Dancer Wu Chi. Then, Dotya can easily sneak into Ghost Dancer Wu Chi's side."
When he had first left this world, he had practically escaped right under the nose of the Dancing Ghost Ghost Zhu Wujie. With that guy's level of hatred towards him, sending a ghost here to investigate his whereabouts was a very normal thing.
After that, he would leave the rest to Dotya. He thought that she would be able to do something as simple as sneaking into Wu Chi's side. If she really couldn't do it, then there was no need for him to keep her as his subordinate.
"Let's go."
Ryuga turned around. "Let's go to the Ghost Killers' headquarters. If we want to complete a certain number of ghost killing missions, the Ghost Killers' intelligence system is necessary."
The missions to kill Winding Ghosts and Ghost Kings were easy. When Dotya sneaked into Wu Chi's side and found out his location, it would be easy to complete. Only the Spirit Base Renewal Mission, which required them to kill 30 ghosts, was slightly more complicated.
After all, ghosts were basically lone wolves. If they wanted to complete this mission, they would need to spend some time.
"Please … please wait for a moment!"
Just as the two of them made their decision, someone pushed the crowd aside and walked up to them. "Excuse me, are you … Member Cang Mi of the Ghost Killers?"
He was wearing the black Ghost Killers' uniform, but his whole body was wrapped up. Even his face was not exposed. Only at this moment, when he looked at Ryuga, his eyes were filled with excitement.
"Are you a member of Yin?"
Ryuga saw his iconic outfit and nodded. "That's right. I am Cang Mi Ryuga, the stepson of Ghost Killers' Yan Zhu."
"That's great! I'm a member of Yin, and I've been waiting here for your news under the orders of the Ghost Killers! "
The members of Yin were extremely excited. "We heard that you encountered two First Quarter Swords in a row and thought that you were dead for sure. I didn't expect you to still be alive. I'll get Zhuo Ya to inform the Ghost Killing Team. Please come with me to the Ghost Killing Team!"
"Alright."
Ryuga nodded noncommittally.
The Guisha Team probably thought that he was dead. To be honest, if he didn't have the Ghost Blood and the ability to return, even he himself would have died last time. The Guisha Team was kind enough to send someone to wait for him here.
However, if he returned with his current identity, he would most likely cause trouble.
…
Ryuga and Esders followed Yin's members and left Yoshihara Hana Street by train.
However, they did not return to the Ghost Killers' headquarters immediately. Instead, they went to another place.
Teng Hiyama.
It was the place where the Ghost Killers held the final selection. The mountain was surrounded by a large number of wisteria flowers, and there were many low-level evil spirits imprisoned in it.
The final selection was held every six months, and it had only been four months since the last selection. It was far from the opening time. The road leading to the mountain had been blocked to prevent the ghosts on the mountain from breaking through the blockade and running down the mountain.
"You wait around here first. We'll probably come down tomorrow morning."
After Ryuga said this to Yin's members, she took Esders and went up the mountain. The blocked road could not stop them at all.
Although Yin's member wanted to go straight to the Ghost Killers' headquarters, he did not have the courage to raise any objections to Yan Zhu's stepson. He could only follow behind the two silently. After the two of them went up the mountain, he had no choice but to find a family to stay in.
"These flowers are really annoying."
Esders looked at the wisteria flowers that grew on the trees in front of him. It was as if they would not wither throughout the year. His face showed an instinctive expression of rejection.
"Wisteria flowers have a natural restraining effect on ghosts. The weaker the ghost blood, the easier it is to restrain it. However, when it reaches the level of a First String Ghost, it will be difficult for it to be effective."
Although Ryuga also felt that her body was faintly rejecting the wisteria flowers, she still acted as if nothing had happened. The rejection in her body was like the rejection of cockroaches and insects. In fact, it was not worth mentioning. After all, the wisteria flowers were not enough for her, whose ghost blood had reached the level of First String Ghost.
"Are you okay?" Ryuga turned to look at Esders.
"En? Are you worried about me? "
Esders flicked his long blue hair, and a gentle smile appeared on his face. "But it's okay. This is nothing."
Her willpower was also strong enough. Not to mention her body's instinctive rejection, even if she was really poisoned, it would not make her change her expression at all.
"That's good then."
Ryuga nodded. He had already become completely accustomed to her personality of switching back and forth between a battle maniac and a gentle woman. "Esders, use ice to freeze the surroundings of the mountain range. Do your best to prevent a single ghost from escaping."
"No problem. Leave it to me."
Esders agreed in an extremely straightforward manner. Afterwards, with a sudden wave of her hand, countless pieces of ice appeared from her hands. They revolved around the wisteria mountain and rapidly formed a huge ring of ice that spanned over a dozen kilometers. It completely enveloped the mountain range, including the wisteria forest.
Because Esders had already become a ghost, her physical strength was basically limitless. Let alone a mere wall of ice, she could even use a powerful move like Maha Bodhisattva, which could freeze space and time continuously. Although the upper limit of her strength had not increased by much, her endurance in battle had increased drastically.
Her actions had shaken out all the slumbering ghosts in the mountains. Looking at the wall of ice that seemed to blot out the sky, all of them were extremely shocked.
"There's a ghost over there. Esders, go see if you can kill it or not."
After Liu Xia had comprehended the [Transparent World], his sensing ability had greatly improved. Basically, he could sense the location of the ghosts hiding in the mountains clearly.
"An unkillable ghost? Hunting prey like this sure is exhilarating! "
Esders's eyes blazed with the madness of a war addict once more. He made his way into the mountains with an intense desire to ravage the ghosts.
There were not a lot of ghosts in the mountains. With a rough sense, there were only around a dozen of them. Compared to when Ryuga participated in the final selection last time, there were not a lot more, and they were all low-level evil ghosts. There was not even a single mutated ghost.
"It's just a matter of quantity anyway. This is probably the only place where a large number of ghosts gather in this world. I can't let them go."
