However, what made her most puzzled and angry, was that under such circumstances, she actually could not see Ghost King sect head Ghost King.
From those Ghost King sect disciples, Ghost King suddenly gave the order to go into seclusion and would not meet any guests, even the ordinary Ghost King sect disciples were not able to meet him, Xiao Bai sent the disciples several times to inform but the news was always the same, either the disciples who went to inform said they could not meet Ghost King sect head, or Ghost King sent a message to Miss Xiao Bai to wait for a few more days and he would be out of seclusion immediately, in short, he would not come out to meet her.
Although Xiao Bai's skills were high but being in such a strange atmosphere in Ghost King sect, her mood would not be good no matter what and every day she saw people dying of madness beside her, the horror of this crazy place, could not be described with words.
In fact, with Xiao Bai's thousand years of skills, she could already vaguely feel that behind this vast and magnificent cave, there was a strange bloodthirsty power, constantly expanding, especially every time she saw someone going crazy and dying, that special bloody stench would become thicker and thicker.
Three days ago, she had just arrived at Majestic Fox Mountain and met the first Ghost King sect disciple Lao Li going crazy and dying, she accidentally discovered a mysterious figure hiding in a corner, the bloody stench was the strongest but when she followed, that mysterious figure had already disappeared and had not appeared since that day.
At this moment, Xiao Bai felt that his patience was about to run out!
In the stone room, Xiao Bai sat alone, the surrounding thick stone walls although also filled with cracks that were not there before but it could still block out most of the noises, surrounded this stone room with a kind of precious tranquility. However, Xiao Bai's expression did not show any signs of calmness at all. On the contrary, the anger on her face became more and more intense. Everything that had happened in the past few days had completely destroyed her previous impression of the Ghost King. Her disciples had fallen into a deep terror, and the Sect Master had completely disappeared without a trace. He did not even come out to say a word to appease the people, not to mention taking any measures to resolve the situation.
This was simply unheard of, Xiao Bai even suspected that something big had happened in this Ghost King sect when she was not around, some powerful figure had secretly killed Ghost King and that was why there was such chaos. If not with Ghost King's great talent and bold vision, how would such a scene happen? Just that no matter how Xiao Bai thought about it, she still felt that Ghost King was such a powerful figure, there was no reason for his subordinates to rebel. And Xiao Bai was still mindful of her sister Xiao Chi and Ghost King being husband and wife, she did not want to make things too stiff and could only wait patiently, who knew that this wait lasted for three days and three nights.
[Pa!]
Xiao Bai's face was as gloomy as water, slapped the bed beside her, then stood up and walked straight to the door of the stone room. It had been three days, she finally could not hold it in any longer, decided to go see Ghost King and ask clearly, if not, she might as well leave this place, this kind of strange place, she really did not want to stay another day.
Just as she was about to approach the stone door, Xiao Bai suddenly frowned, as if she sensed something and stopped in her tracks. Sure enough, a moment later, there was a commotion outside the stone door, followed by a respectful voice, "Is Miss Xiao Bai here?"
Xiao Bai walked up and opened the door, saw a Ghost King sect disciple standing outside, about twenty years old, looked very young but there were some dark circles under his eyes and an unconcealable tiredness, one could imagine that this person was also troubled by the strange things around him.
Seeing Xiao Bai standing there, this Ghost King sect disciple's expression became even more respectful, Xiao Bai and Ghost King sect head Ghost King and vice sect head Ghost Li had an extraordinary relationship, everyone in Ghost King sect knew about it, naturally they were respectful to her.
Xiao Bai glanced at him, said, "What is it?"
The disciple was heard saying, "Disciple is under sect head's orders, to invite Miss Xiao Bai to meet him."
Xiao Bai was surprised and then sneered, said, "He finally has the time, finally willing to meet me?"
Her tone was filled with disrespect and anger towards Ghost King, the disciple heard it, a trace of fear flashed past his face, his head lowered even more. Xiao Bai snorted but did not want to make things difficult for him, indifferently said, "Just nice, I am also going to meet him, since it is so, you lead the way."
The disciple seemed relieved, nodded and said, "Yes, Miss please follow me." After speaking, he did not dare to take another look at Xiao Bai, turned and walked deeper into the tunnel.
Xiao Bai followed behind the disciple, the direction they were heading towards was Ghost King's residence, seemed like Ghost King had really come out from his so-called 'seclusion' and returned to his own house. Xiao Bai's lips twitched, a cold smile flashed past her face.
The two of them walked along, when they were about ten zhangs away from Ghost King's stone chamber, the disciple stopped, quietly said, "Miss Xiao Bai, sect head has instructed to meet you alone, I will not go in."
Xiao Bai frowned, even though Ghost King had instructed but to stop and leave when they were still ten zhangs away, no matter what it was an extremely rude action. But when she turned to look at that disciple, she was stunned, that disciple's expression was stiff, his hands at his side seemed to be involuntarily rubbing his clothes, his palms seemed to be sweating profusely, extremely nervous and fearful.
Xiao Bai was silent for a moment, her expression softened, sighed softly and said, "Alright, you can go."
That young disciple raised his head to look at Xiao Bai and then immediately lowered his head, but it was obvious that his entire body relaxed, as if a thousand catty boulder had been lifted off his back, the corners of his mouth also revealed a trace of smile. He was heard quietly saying, "Many thanks Miss." Speaking, he turned and quickly walked away.
Xiao Bai's eyes turned over, looked at Ghost King's stone chamber, after a moment, composed herself, took a step forward. Suddenly, at this moment, a heart-wrenching howl was heard from afar behind her, that sound was sharp like a sharp blade, in that instant pierced the fragile peace in this cave.
It was not the first time Xiao Bai heard such a sound but her chest still sank abruptly, she turned around with a sound but the tunnel was still empty, only a figure like a stiff rock stood there.
Far away, the howl and the clamour of the people who had rushed over after hearing the sound, gradually mixed together, followed by chaotic shouting and fighting sounds, a faint smell of blood, like invisible flowing water, again flowed around Xiao Bai's body.
Just that right now, Xiao Bai temporarily did not care about these, her brows tightly frowned, stared at that Ghost King sect disciple. Ghost King's residence was naturally located in a quieter corner, this passageway was rather long, right now other than Xiao Bai and that young man, there was no one else. The terrifying cries that made one's heart numb continued to be heard, not knowing which pitiful person had gone crazy again.
Suddenly, that young disciple's frozen body started to tremble, the trembling became more and more violent, following which he made an almost despairing howl,
"Ah! … I can't take it anymore … "
He pulled out the saber that was protecting his body, as if the void around him was full of evil ghosts. He waved the saber in a frenzy, and the sharp saber made a sharp whistling sound in the air. From time to time, it would hit the hard stone wall, leaving faint marks.
The cries gradually died down but the crowd seemed to have heard something and started to move over. Xiao Bai coldly snorted, suddenly a white figure flashed, she had already reached that young disciple, that young disciple also seemed to have lost his senses, the next strike was towards Xiao Bai. Xiao Bai's left hand grabbed the air, quick like lightning had already grabbed that young disciple's wrist, exerted a little strength, immediately a crisp sound was heard, the sharp blade in that disciple's hand fell, landed on the ground and he too leaned weakly against the stone wall.
Xiao Bai looked straight into that person's eyes, he was panting heavily, his eyes scattered and somewhat crazy but other than a few red veins in his eyes, there was no bloodthirsty red colour.
Xiao Bai let out a sigh of relief, but she heard the noise from the distance approaching. After pondering for a moment, she waved her right hand over the young disciple's head. With a flash of her white sleeve, the young disciple's body shook, his eyes slowly closed, and he powerlessly fell to the ground.
Xiao Bai's face tensed, abruptly turned, drifted towards Ghost King's stone chamber, and behind her, many figures indistinctly appeared, running over.
