You are all alone in this palace, you must be lonely and bored, and you might want me to come and chat with you!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>Red Lotus, in order to prevent Su Xuan from having wild thoughts about the previous sentence, quickly explained. Because of the haste, her words seemed incoherent.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>Su Xuan found it funny, and to prevent Red Lotus from being embarrassed, he quickly nodded: \"Yes, yes, the Princess is right!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>Red Lotus initially had a smile on her face. This guy is quite sensible!\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>But gradually, she felt something was wrong.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>Why did this sound more and more like perfunctory words.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>She was about to get angry.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>In the end, she held it back.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>Be a lady, have manners, don't argue with this guy.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>Of course, the main reason was that she was afraid her father would scold her again. She wasn't someone who couldn't distinguish right from wrong, although she was sometimes willful, she knew her father valued Su Xuan highly.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>She changed the subject again and said to Su Xuan: \"Hey, you haven't answered me yet. Can you really summon ghosts?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>\"I heard people say that you summoned ghosts in the court, not only found out the truth of the ghost soldier hijacking case but also found the missing military pay.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>\"The Princess is very interested in this?\" Su Xuan looked at Red Lotus.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>Red Lotus wanted to deny it verbally, not wanting Su Xuan to know her true thoughts, but when the words reached her lips, she hesitated, then decisively admitted: \"Yes, I am very interested!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>A flattering smile hung on her lips. \"So, Mr. Su, who has great supernatural powers, can you let me see the legendary ghosts?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>Su Xuan said calmly: \"Humans and ghosts have always been different. Ghosts are feared by people, and it's not without reason. It's just because their appearance is different from ordinary people, terrifying and hideous. Are you sure you really want to see ghosts?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>Red Lotus had heard people tell about what happened in the court.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>The ghost that appeared in the court was extremely terrifying, not to mention the rotten face, there were maggots crawling in it...\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>Thinking about that appearance, she felt disgusted.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>At this moment, hearing Su Xuan's words, she couldn't help but recall that description and felt a sense of retreat.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>But immediately after, she firmed her determination.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>Even if the ghost's appearance was terrifying, so what? That was a ghost!\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>It was an existence that ordinary people could hardly see in their lifetime.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>Terror was only for a moment; as long as she could see them, that was enough.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>\"Yes, I want to see ghosts!\" Red Lotus said firmly.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>Su Xuan didn't refuse and continued: \"Since it is the Princess's request, I will let you see them.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>Without bringing soil from Soul-Severing Valley as a medium like when he first performed the Art of Communicating with the Nether, and without using the so-called \"Soul-Guiding Incense,\" Su Xuan just flicked his sleeves, and suddenly, eerie winds blew.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>Red Lotus's clothes and hair flew, and she felt a chill.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>Immediately after, black mist attacked, and in the black mist, a figure wearing broken armor appeared.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>The moment this figure appeared, Red Lotus actually regretted it.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>She shouldn't have said that so quickly.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>No one expected Su Xuan to act so fast, without any preparation, and summon the ghost directly.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>Red Lotus gathered her courage and looked at the ghost's face again.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>The terrifying face was reflected in her eyes, and after that, Red Lotus suddenly lowered her head. No one knew what she wanted to do or say. In the next moment, she turned around and left.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>She was actually scared away?\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>Watching Red Lotus run away, Su Xuan was also stunned. He waved his hand, and the ghost he summoned dissipated.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>His gaze suddenly became sharp, looking to the other side.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>\"Did you make an appointment?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>\"Either don't come, or come together?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>A figure twisted her waist and walked out quietly. The other party was charming; it was one of the Four Fierce Generals of the Night Curtain, known as the \"Tide Enchantress,\" Lady Mingzhu.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>\"Is that the ghost you summoned in the court?\" Lady Mingzhu had actually come long ago, but because she found Princess Red Lotus here when she arrived, she chose to hide her tracks temporarily.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>After Princess Red Lotus left and she heard Su Xuan's words, she also felt it was a coincidence.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>Princess Red Lotus and she actually came to Su Xuan at the same time.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>But clearly, their purposes were not the same.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>Lady Mingzhu didn't expect that after hiding in the dark, she would have the luck to witness the ghost summoned by Su Xuan.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>She had heard about the court affairs, and so many people spoke clearly, claiming that the ghosts had really appeared.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>She also once doubted whether Su Xuan could really summon gods and ghosts.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>But now, after seeing it, she saw a clue.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>\"What a brilliant illusion, almost indistinguishable from the real thing!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>Lady Mingzhu herself was a master of illusion, and since the ghost was summoned by Su Xuan casually, without deliberately pursuing details, Lady Mingzhu finally discovered the truth.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>Su Xuan heard Lady Mingzhu's words, smiled, and didn't respond.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>Lady Mingzhu was right. From the beginning, his so-called Art of Communicating with the Nether was actually an illusion.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>In the Seventy-Two Earthly Arts, there was indeed the \"Art of Communicating with the Nether,\" which could allow people to penetrate the underworld and talk to ghosts, but the key was that Su Xuan hadn't lit up the star belonging to Communicating with the Nether and hadn't mastered it.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>But it didn't matter. Just like he hadn't mastered the Heavenly Great Supernatural Power \"Summoning Wind and Rain\" at the beginning, but could use the \"Borrowing Wind\" art, combined with the \"Knowing Time\" art, to calculate the weather and disguise himself as being able to \"Summon Wind and Rain,\" among the Earthly Daoist arts he mastered, there was one that could allow him to disguise himself as the \"Art of Communicating with the Nether.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>This art is called—Nightmare Prayer!\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>Nightmare Prayer is an illusion. One can use magic to confuse people with illusions, and those who are hit by the art are like being in a nightmare.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>The first two times of communicating with the nether were just two illusions performed by Su Xuan.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>Even for the court session, to make the illusion more realistic, Su Xuan learned from Lady Mingzhu's use of illusion and used some illusion incense to amplify the effect.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>Su Xuan spoke, not mentioning the illusion, but revealing Lady Mingzhu's purpose for coming here: \"You came with killing intent. How is it, Ji Ji Wuye ordered you to take action against me?\"\u003C\u002Fp>",1160,"2026-06-17T03:35:52.916Z","2026-06-17T08:59:55.704Z",1,"Gemini 3.1 Flash Lite","872920b07a351b1c51c71648fcfe201667c0e2564c7bf914ed8f4c97f6b9a351","great-qin-starting-with-earthly-fiends-and-heave-chapter-30","great-qin-starting-with-earthly-fiends-and-heave-chapter-28",617,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fgreat-qin-starting-with-earthly-fiends-and-heave-cover.jpg"]
