Thousands of miles away, it was also the same late night, that bright moon hung high in the sky, quietly watching this mortal world.
In the wilderness, there was also a person looking up at that round cold moon, his robe with long sleeves, was still in Taoist attire, on his angular face, the imposing manner without anger was still indistinctly visible.
The night breeze blew gently on the wilderness, the wild grass swayed, between the fluttering clothes and silence, it was as if time also stood still.
Just that, who could hold back time, in your trance, eventually ten years still passed.
Someone sighed, the voice light, slowly drifted away in the wind.
In this silence, suddenly a voice was heard from afar, with some laughter, said, "Such a beautiful scene, priest appreciating the moon alone, really in a good mood!"
When the voice started, it was still far away but by the time the words were finished, it was already behind the priest, that priest inhaled deeply, turned around, under the moonlight, it was Taoist Cang Song who ten years ago colluded with the Evil Faction and betrayed Qing Yun.
And standing not far behind him, was Ghost King sect head Ghost King, just that looking at him right now, although Ghost King looked normal but his head of white hair, looked much more haggard, only in his eyes, indistinctly glinted with another blazing glint, more dazzling than usual.
Taoist Cang Song's eyes glanced at Ghost King's hair, his calm expression changed, asked in astonishment, "Sect head, why is your hair …"
Ghost King smiled faintly, Taoist Cang Song's reaction, was actually within his expectations. For a highly skilled person like him, even after a hundred years, his appearance would not change much but this time suddenly his hair turned white in three days, like Cang Song and the others who did not know the inside story were naturally shocked, thought that he had encountered some problems in his cultivation.
Ghost King did not explain, even his expression did not change much, only smiled and said, "Although you and I are both cultivators but after all we are also mortals, gratitude and grudges, feelings and enmity, there will always be sad matters."
Taoist Cang Song's expression turned serious, solemnly said, "That's right, I have said too much."
Ghost King shook his head and smiled, clasped his hands behind and walked to Taoist Cang Song, smiled and said, "Let's not talk about it. But ever since the Qing Yun battle ten years ago, I heard that priest has been worshipped by Wan Du Clan, highly revered, I wonder what urgent matter is there to suddenly ask me to meet here tonight? If this matter is known by that senior God of Poison, I naturally don't care, but I'm afraid it will be very inconvenient for you. "
Taoist Vasp Caelo watched Ghost King for a long time, Ghost King did not ask much, still maintaining a smile, smiled and waited. After a while, Cang Song sighed and said, "Sovereign, you are indeed extraordinary. To tell you the truth, I have an important matter to discuss with Sovereign tonight."
Ghost King said, "Please speak."
Cang Song glanced at the Ghost King and said: "Sect Leader, do you know that the Wan Du Clan's Sect Leader, God of Poison, has passed away three days ago?"
Taoist Cang Song's voice was not loud but it was like a sudden clap of thunder, even with Ghost King's composure, his body shook, his countenance changed greatly, he blurted out, "What?"
Cang Song stared intently at Ghost King and said, "God of Poison had already passed away three days ago, after his death, he left behind an order, to pass the position of Sect Leader to his youngest disciple Qin WuYan."
Ghost King gradually calmed down but his brows were still tightly knitted, his face was calm but in his heart it was like thousands of troops and horses were surging over at the same time, all kinds of thoughts surging incessantly.
Currently the Evil Sect's three main branches were in confrontation, the one he feared the most was this Wan Du Clan old poisonous thing, as long as he was around, Ghost King sect almost had no chance to pull Wan Du Clan down from the Evil Sect's number one branch position. But now, this old poisonous thing who once looked like he would never die, actually died so quietly!
Ghost King inhaled deeply, his eyes returned to Taoist Cang Song's face, suddenly smiled and said, "God of Poison senior was our holy sect's highly respected senior, this time he has passed away unfortunately, it really makes one sad." His mouth was speaking words of condolence but there was not the slightest sadness in his smile.
And Taoist Cang Song, who was standing opposite him, also looked indifferent, obviously these two people did not have any nostalgia for that old man who had passed away.
"But," Ghost King seemed to reveal a trace of cautiousness, said, "Before I came, why did I not hear of this news! In these three days, although Wan Du Clan was very peaceful but there was no news leaked out at all. "
Taoist Cang Song smiled, with slight disdain said, "After the old man died, although Qin WuYan was ordered to take over the position of Sect Leader but the other few disciples who rushed back to send him off were not willing to let it go, quarreled incessantly over this position and temporarily suppressed the news of the old man's death. Now, other than myself and a few of the elders, most of the Wan Du Clan disciples still do not know about this. "
What kind of person was Ghost King, once he heard it, he understood immediately, a trace of smile surfaced on his lips, after a moment of hesitation, spoke to Taoist Cang Song, "This is no small matter, priest telling me about it, it is enough to show your great kindness, I am extremely grateful."
Taoist Cang Song smiled and said, "I dare not."
Ghost King's eyes glimmered, said, "Does priest have anything else to say, there is no harm in saying it."
Taoist Cang Song snorted, said, "Sect head is a hero with great talent and bold vision, I will not beat around the bush, Wan Du Clan now no longer has a place for me, hope sect head will take me in on the account of our acquaintance in the past."
Ghost King was stunned, said, "What is priest saying, with priest's character, I can't even wait for you and have been longing for you for many years. Just that priest has always held a high position in Wan Du Clan and is also part of the holy sect, I dare not to rashly invite you, unless there is any change after God of Poison senior passed away? "
Taoist Cang Song nodded and said, "Sect head's foresight is like a torch, God of Poison is indeed not bad to me but that Qin WuYan has always been at odds with me, and this time the Wan Du Clan members are fighting for the position, the sect's highly skilled experts are all occupying their own mountains and confronting each other, from what I see, even if there is someone who can unify the Wan Du Clan and sit firmly on the position, it will definitely be a huge blow to its vitality and cannot compete for even one day."
Ghost King laughed loudly, his laughter was loud and clear, reverberating in the wilderness, after a moment, he kept his smile and sternly said, "Priest don't worry, Qin WuYan is an ignorant child and does not know priest's talent, will priest please come to my Ghost King sect and condescend to the position of priest, everything will be done according to your heart and there will be no worries."
Taoist Cang Song looked delighted, nodded and said, "Thank you sect head."
Ghost King smiled and nodded, a glint in his eyes, said, "Since priest and I are already one family, I will take the liberty to ask priest, among the God of Poison's disciples, who has the most hope to inherit the position of sect head?"
Cang Song pondered for a long time and said, "Although the sect's highly skilled experts are separated and confronting each other but from what I see, in the end I'm afraid Qin WuYan still has the highest chance of winning, although this person is young but his schemes are deep and he is also the direct disciple of God of Poison, he cannot be belittled. Just that a few months ago he was injured by Ghost Li in the western death marsh, I heard that the Sinister Orb's evil power is extremely strange and penetrated deep into his bone marrow and until now he has not fully recovered, that's why his few senior brothers took advantage of the situation and rose up, if not with his abilities, those few good-for-nothing senior brothers would not be his match. "
Ghost King was surprised, although Ghost Li's ambush of Qin WuYan was also in the death marsh but Ghost Li did not reveal it to anyone, he also did not know anything about it, now that he suddenly heard Taoist Cang Song mention it, Ghost Li's figure uncontrollably flashed past his mind, the glint in his eyes intensified.
The intensity of his gaze, even Taoist Cang Song was shocked, asked in astonishment, "Sect head, what is it?"
Ghost King reacted, heaved a sigh of relief, smiled and said, "Nothing much, just that I did not expect that this Ghost Li that I have groomed, has already become a great person, I am very happy."
Taoist Cang Song glanced at him, his expression as usual and did not say anything but in his heart, Zhang XiaoFan's figure ten years ago at Qing Yun Hill peak also appeared, thinking of Ghost King's expression just now, couldn't help but sneered in his heart.
Majestic Fox Mountain, Ghost King Sect headquarters.
Descending from the sky, that magic stick glimmering with green light quietly flew back into his sleeve, Ghost Li's figure once again appeared in front of the entrance of Ghost King Sect headquarters.
The few Ghost King Sect disciples guarding the entrance were startled and immediately moved aside, one after another called out, "Vice sect head."
Ghost Li did not say anything, expressionless, walked straight in, Xiao Hui crouched on his shoulder, as usual looking around but after a while, it retracted its gaze, after all to it, this place was too familiar.
Ghost Li unhurriedly walked back to his own room, pushed open the stone door, everything in the room was exactly the same as before he left, as if no one had touched it. He stood in the room for a long time, as if thinking about something, his expression had a rare trace of hesitation and fear. Xiao Hui jumped down from his shoulder, with two or three leaps, jumped onto the bed, minding its own business and played.
Ghost Li pressed his lips tightly, suddenly sighed, as if he had made up his mind, turned and walked out, then headed towards the cold stone chamber deep inside the mountain.
Along the way, he met quite a number of Ghost King Sect disciples but to this vice sect head who had disappeared for a long time and suddenly appeared, without exception they all lowered their heads and walked away, in their eyes, it seemed that the further away from this man the better. But Ghost Li clearly would not notice these people's attitude, only quietly walked forward, his room was not far from the cold stone chamber, very soon he reached it and saw that figure standing outside.
YouJi.
A thought suddenly flashed past Ghost Li's mind: why did it seem that everytime he came to visit BiYao, YouJi seemed to be standing outside this stone chamber? Seemed like she really had feelings for BiYao …
Just when he was thinking about that, YouJi seemed to have heard footsteps, looked up and seemed not expecting Ghost Li to suddenly appear, her body shook slightly.
Ghost Li silently nodded to her, considered as a greeting and then walked past her, towards the cold stone chamber's door.
Under the black veil, YouJi was silent.
Just when Ghost Li was about to push open the door, he suddenly stopped, turned and looked at YouJi, said, "You …"
He rarely spoke to YouJi, right now suddenly he did not know how to address YouJi.
YouJi indifferently said, "Whatever BiYao calls me, you should also call me that."
Ghost Li was silent, as if something was stirred up in his heart, both of them were silent for a moment but eventually it was Ghost Li who spoke, "Aunt You, the last time when I left, I asked Qing Long holy envoy to send the great shaman's ashes back to southern border …"
YouJi's black veil nodded twice, quietly said, "Don't worry, big brother has already sent it but for some reason, until now there is still no news from him." While speaking, although YouJi's expression could not be seen but her voice still revealed a trace of rare anxiety, "Recently the demon beasts are wreaking havoc in the southern border, big brother although he is highly skilled but, but for some reason he is still not back."
Ghost Li frowned, was silent for a moment, said, "Don't worry too! Qing Long holy envoy is highly skilled, those demon beasts cannot do anything to him. "He paused, said," Then I will go in. "
YouJi silently nodded, did not speak again.
[Rumble]
The heavy stone door emitted a deep sound, opened and closed behind him, Ghost Li once again found himself in the cold stone chamber, quietly watching that serene and beautiful figure.
Wisps of white air gently floated up from the ice, strand by strand drifted in the air, slowly moving, giving one an indistinct feeling of unreality. On the smooth ground, the remnants of that soul-stirring 'Soul Summoning Guide' could still be seen, the faint faint red colour, right now seemed to have quietly blended into the stone.
Ghost Li's lips for some reason, started to tremble, slowly, he walked over step by step, stepping over the traces of red, passing through the faint white smoke, BiYao's serene face appeared before him.
As if nothing had changed, looking at her like this, she was still ten years ago, that beautiful young lady whom he had first met …
Ghost Li's body trembled even more violently, before BiYao's stone platform, he slowly bent down, in the stone chamber, indistinctly heard the choking sounds that he tried his best to suppress but eventually could not.
Suddenly, Ghost Li's body swayed, with a backhand palm, actually heavily slapped himself, the loud sound after the palm and face hit, immediately reverberated in the stone chamber, the man's pain and regret, seemed to only be able to vent a little in this way.
"Sorry, BiYao, sorry …" That deep voice, trying its best to suppress its own voice, so quietly said, repeated.
After an unknown period of time, the stone chamber which had regained its tranquility was once again broken, the stone door was opened. A silver-haired Ghost King unhurriedly walked in, stood behind Ghost Li. Ghost Li who was crouching beside BiYao moved, slowly stood up and then turned to look.
The two men's eyes met, both were startled, Ghost Li saw Ghost King's head full of white hair, Ghost King instead saw the five finger marks slowly appearing on Ghost Li's face.
"You are back." Ghost King's voice sounded a little strange, in the calmness there was a faint gratification but there was another kind of indescribable strange feeling.
Ghost Li silently nodded. Ghost King was clearly used to Ghost Li's character, did not mind, said, "Come with me for a while! There is an old acquaintance, I think you should meet her, and soon there will be a big event in our Ghost King sect. "
Ghost Li was slightly surprised, clearly did not know who this so-called old acquaintance was but looking at him, with his current state of mind, he also did not want to know, immediately turned and glanced at BiYao, as if to carve that pale face deeply in his eyes, and never change again. Then, he turned and walked out.
