Chapter 917: You Want This Thing Too?

At this moment, in the central area of the Ghost King Market within the Second Domain.

A Blood Sea spanning over a thousand square meters sat therein, vast and immense, truly worthy of being called a sea.

The Blood Sea was a expanse of scarlet, viscous like fresh blood; when the seawater surged, it resembled molten lava rolling.

A thick layer of miasma shrouded the sea surface, red tinged with black, appearing as a faint reddish-brown from afar, exuding a pungent odor.

Were a Mortal to smell it, they would basically collapse on the spot.

Ordinary Bronze-level powerhouses basically dared not approach lightly, while Silver Powerhouses needed to apply medicinal potions before daring to pass through the miasma.

Of course, whether Silver Powerhouses or Golden Powerhouses, all needed to obtain a Ghost King Token before they could fly across into the Central Area.

Otherwise, once the Ghost King Manor in the Central Area initiated a defensive counterattack, its powerful force would be sufficient to slam them into the Blood Sea, where they would instantly be corroded into dregs.

At this moment, at the edge of the Blood Sea, stood two graceful figures, along with a small Teddy dog.

Jiang Hongyan emitted a ring of Spiritual Light, enveloping herself and Xu Feifei to resist the erosion of the miasma.

In fact, with her strength, breaking into the Ghost King Manor posed no problem whatsoever.

The key was that she still had to take care of Xu Feifei; after all, Xu Feifei still possessed a Mortal Body, and if she divided her attention to care for her, she might very well be unable to withstand the opponent's attacks borrowing the power of the Blood Sea.

If she were to leave Xu Feifei behind and rush in alone, given the chaotic state of this Second Domain, Xu Feifei would definitely be unsafe.

Therefore, for now, she could only stand at the edge of the Blood Sea, temporarily locked in a stalemate with the Ghost King Manor.

The perimeter was also surrounded by crowds; many people were watching the spectacle, discussing incessantly.

"These two women simply possess world-shocking beauty; who would have thought that even in our Second Domain, we could encounter such beauties."

"Especially that woman projecting the light shield; mature and dignified, with extraordinary temperament, it is estimated that no one in the entire Taijin Continent can compare to her."

"You had best not speak recklessly; this woman has been able to stand by the Blood Sea for so long and still has the capacity to protect the person beside her; her strength must be at least Silver Peak, or even Golden Rank."

"Hiss! Is she that strong?"

"How exactly did they come into conflict with the Ghost King Manor?"

"Haha, I heard it was the Ghost King Manor's Second Young Master who provoked them outside First Domain City and was chased all the way here."

"Damn, didn't that Second Young Master go to First Domain City to worship at the ancestral graves? It is said the Li family recently found a new cemetery and prepared to invite their ancestors' ashes back; how could they have provoked these women?"

"What exactly did he do to cause the other party to pursue and kill him across regions?"

"I heard the Second Young Master's guards say he spoke disrespectfully to that slightly younger woman and even tried to touch her; fortunately, that powerful woman stopped him. Later, that woman seemed to discover the Second Young Master carried some Treasure and demanded it; not only did the Second Young Master refuse to give it, but he also spoke disrespectfully again, and thus was pursued."

"So that's it; disaster stems from the mouth."

"Disaster? Are you kidding? Would the Ghost King Manor's Second Young Master fear disaster? Do you not see those two women currently blocked outside the Blood Sea?"

"That is true; besides, Li Laoda has not yet shown himself; this woman is likely no match."

"If they do not leave soon, they will probably be in big trouble."

The crowd discussed heatedly; no one felt the Ghost King Manor would face any trouble, even believing Jiang Hongyan and Xu Feifei were about to meet with misfortune.

"Move aside, move aside, all of you get out of this Young Master's way!" At this moment, a shout came from behind the crowd.

Everyone turned their heads to look, instantly stunned for a moment.

"Isn't this the Ghost King Manor's Eldest Young Master?"

"Damn, why does he look like this? Was he beaten severely?"

"What is happening today? First the Ghost King Manor's Second Young Master was pursued and killed, and now even the Eldest Young Master has been beaten."

"It seems Li Laoda is truly going to be enraged this time."

Many people wore looks of horror, clearing a path to let that Eldest Young Master enter.

"Damn it, they actually dared to hit me in Ghost King City!" The middle-aged Young Master was currently a mess, covered in bloodstains, rushing through the crowd with a face full of anger, cursing incessantly, completely lacking the Coward demeanor he had shown earlier before Xu Que.

"Men! Are you all blind? Do you not see this Young Master has returned? Why are you not coming out to welcome me quickly?"

"Damn it, I was beaten at the entrance and none of you saw it!"

"Where is my father? Father, someone beat your son and you do not even care? Quickly break that damned fellow's legs, chop him into fragments, and let me vent my Evil!"

The middle-aged Young Master shouted loudly, showing not the slightest sense that being beaten was shameful.

Seeing him in the heat of his anger, everyone present consciously fell silent, daring not to discuss him further.

After all, everyone knew this Eldest Young Master's character: bullying the Good and fearing the Evil; once his father Li Laoda showed up, this Imperial Prince would become more arrogant than anyone else.

"Whoosh!"

Suddenly, a sound of breaking the air rang out from above.

Everyone present was startled, abruptly raising their heads to look, faces filled with astonishment.

In the cloudy sky, a figure rode Lightning, bringing along a large dog, sweeping across the sky at an astonishing speed.

The man riding the Lightning was very young, wearing a faint smile, gentle and refined, elegant and distinguished; it was precisely Xu Que.

As soon as the middle-aged Young Master saw Xu Que arrive, his gallbladder instantly burst with fear; the arrogant flame on his face vanished immediately, and he broke into a mad sprint toward the Blood Sea.

"Heh, still want to run?" Xu Que gave a Cold Smile, suddenly thrusting his arm forward and gripping with his five fingers in mid-air.

Boom!

A surging colossal force instantly manifested in the air, actually seizing the middle-aged Young Master and dragging him backward by force.

Finally, with a bang, the middle-aged Young Master was yanked right in front of Xu Que, collapsing half-paralyzed on the ground.

Xu Que stared at him with a face full of mockery: "I just let you go, and you dare curse me behind my back? You even want to kill me? Fine, come on, didn't you want to vent your Evil?"

"No, Big Brother, I know I was wrong, I really know I was wrong, it was my loose tongue, I was... ah!" The middle-aged Young Master begged for mercy with a complete Coward expression, his words hardly different from before.

But this time, before he could even finish speaking, Xu Que kicked him fiercely to the ground; several of his ribs snapped on the spot, and after letting out a miserable scream, he spat out fresh blood once more.

"Hiss!"

Everyone in the entire arena instantly inhaled a mouthful of cold air, faces filled with terror and Disbelief.

This was right at the entrance of the Ghost King Manor; how could someone dare to be so ruthless toward the Ghost King Manor's Eldest Young Master?

What background does this youth have?

Isn't that just too formidable?

"Brother!"

At this moment, Xu Feifei's voice suddenly rang out with delighted surprise.

Jiang Hongyan was bringing her, flying over from the edge of the Blood Pool, a smile also gracing her face.

"You're here?" she said with a faint smile, as if she had known all along that Xu Que would come.

"Little girl, this is your fault; you run off to kill people without saying a word." Xu Que immediately reached out his hand, intending to pinch Jiang Hongyan's cheek.

Jiang Hongyan smiled slightly; her body merely tilted elegantly to the side, easily dodging Xu Que's hand.

At this moment, Xu Feifei also raised her hand to block Xu Que, glaring as she said, "Xu Que, what do you think you're doing? You're not allowed to bully my Hongyan Sister; I, Xu Feifei, will take the blame for this alone!"

"Take the blame my foot!" Xu Que couldn't help but roll his eyes. "Speak up, what's going on? What kind of person is so deserving of death that you actually chased them all the way from the First Domain to here?"

"Hmph, it's a despicable, shameless, and vulgar wretch with a filthy mouth; it would be one thing if he insulted me, but he actually dared to speak disrespectfully to Hongyan Sister." Xu Feifei's face instantly filled with anger as she waved her small fist, wishing she could rush across the Blood Sea to teach that person a lesson.

"It was just a verbal dispute?" Xu Que was stunned, turning to look at Jiang Hongyan.

Given Hongyan's personality, if it were merely a verbal dispute, there was no reason for her to leave in such a hurry, chasing someone from the First Domain to such a distant place.

Jiang Hongyan smiled faintly: "The verbal dispute was only one reason; the true reason is that the person carries a jar of ashes on them—ashes of an Immortal from the Immortal Realm!"

"Oh? Immortal ashes?"

Xu Que's eyes instantly brightened.

"Ashes?"

At this, the middle-aged Young Master lying at Xu Que's feet was instantly shocked upon hearing this, and he cried out in terror, "You... what do you intend to do? Those are the ashes of our Ancestor; you want even this?"

【Actually, I didn't want to say anything, but it won't do to have no communication at all; out of respect for all you big shots, I'll explain. Recently, I was diagnosed with depression; although it's mild, my mental state is indeed very poor, and on top of that, my cervical spondylosis is killing me with pain, so I haven't been able to pick up the pace with updates lately. These past few days back in my Hometown, I've been running back and forth between the gym and traditional Chinese medicine massage therapy; the situation has improved somewhat, so whether it's one chapter or two, I won't stop updating anyway. Give me some time to adjust properly; next month, that Handsome Taishang Buyi will return and unleash an explosion of updates!】
