OK.

Translation: He, now knew his own details.

Yin Killer Holy Son, where did you get this news?

He did not tell anyone about Zhuge Gui's information.

But how did the Yin Killer Holy Son know?

The murderous intent in his heart multiplied several times in an instant.

The cultivation of the Ghost King cannot be known to outsiders, nor can they be allowed to touch his masterpiece.

"Ha ha, Elder, don't panic, don't be like that; this information is not hard to learn."

"You obtained Zhuge Gui from the Heavenly Ghost True Person, intend to cultivate him into a Ghost King, thereby achieving Advancement to Ghost King."

"I must say, your idea is crazy, even… lunatic; everyone thought you would fail, but unexpectedly, you are about to succeed."

"If I hadn't been watching you, watching Zhuge Gui all the time, perhaps I would have been fooled by you as well."

The Yin Killer Holy Son said calmly, "You ventured into Wanggong to obtain the Qi Family bloodline inside, using the Qi Family's imperial blood to increase the probability of the Ghost King's birth."

"Your idea, your plan, is perfect."

The Yin Killer Holy Son's words, like a blade, pierced the Elder's heart.

The murderous intent grew stronger.

The Elder was already about to act.

The Yin Killer Holy Son continued, "I'm not the only one who knows this secret; Zhuge Ruolan also knows, and that other person seems to have seen it as well."

"Elder, you cannot possess the Ghost King alone; how about this: you and I share it, and I, this Holy Son, can give you a hand, what do you think?"

A bottle of blood appeared in the Yin Killer Holy Son's hand.

The imperial blood of the Qi Family.

"You…"

The Elder recognized that bottle of blood as pure imperial blood.

It is not ordinary blood; how did he obtain it?

"Qihuang's blood, how did you obtain it?"

The Elder exclaimed, asking; the blood he most desired was Qihuang's blood.

Unfortunately, he is dead, so he cannot act, nor has he found an opportunity to act.
