“Master?”
Baili Qing’er’s words caused the Nether Ghost Ancestor’s brows to furrow slightly. A hoarse voice then rang out. “Bone, you have betrayed this ancestor?”
“Nether, I have never been your subordinate, so how can there be talk of betrayal?”
Baili Qing’er snorted coldly, then flew to Mo Fan’s side and said calmly, “Nether, Extreme Yin, Yellow Springs, and I have already followed under the master. I hope you can join us, so that we can completely leave this wretched place!”
Upon hearing this, Nether’s gaze shifted. He looked at Mo Fan, his eyes narrowing slightly as he said hoarsely, “So Your Excellency has inherited Little Su’s ghost-controlling divine ability?”
“Indeed.”
Mo Fan nodded, then said to Nether, “I learned about you from Baili Qing’er. Though you are strong, against so many of us cultivators, you have no chance of victory!”
“As long as you follow this king, this king can guarantee you leave this place!”
“Heh! You are merely a mid-King realm demon cultivator, yet you dare to set your sights on this ancestor?”
The Nether Ghost Ancestor sneered coldly, then said with a playful expression, “So this is how you forced them to become your chang ghosts?”
“You can think of it that way, but this king never forces anyone. Everything is simply their willing choice!”
Mo Fan shrugged, then spoke somewhat impatiently, “This king does not wish to waste more words with you. Fight or submit, you choose yourself!”
With himself holding an overwhelming advantage, Mo Fan naturally did not want to say more to this Nether Ghost Ancestor. In the face of absolute strength, he held complete initiative.
“Nether, just agree to the master!
We have stayed in this wretched place long enough. There is no need to remain trapped in this cage forever!
I know you also long to leave this place!”
Seeing that Mo Fan was gradually losing patience, Baili Qing’er could not help but speak up in a final attempt at persuasion.
“You also know it is a cage?”
The Nether Ghost Ancestor looked at Baili Qing’er and sneered, “Being controlled by others, what difference is there from being here?
Sorry, there was an error loading the chapter content. We were unable to successfully load the chapter or refresh the page.
Here is a cage that restricts our freedom.
If you become this demon king’s chang ghosts, would that not also be being in a cage?
If that is so, what difference is there from now?”
“That is not the case. The master has promised us that after a hundred years, he will release us!” Baili Qing’er said gravely.
“A hundred years?”
“A hundred years is too long!”
The Nether Ghost Ancestor shook his head, then looked at Mo Fan and said calmly, “I admit I am no match for you all, but besides fighting or submitting, I have a third path to choose!”
As he spoke, the Nether Ghost Ancestor’s figure gradually became blurred.
In the next moment, he vanished from the spot.
“Outsiders, this grand array is a remnant from ancient times. Without the Nether Array Token, no one can leave from here. Let this ancestor see what methods you have!”
Though Nether had disappeared, his voice echoed throughout the entire Nether Dead Land.
Mo Fan’s brows furrowed slightly. He then said, “Each person has their own aspirations. Since Dao Friend is unwilling to travel with this king, then remain forever in this cage!”
Only after his words fell did he see Yun Rou in her red dress flying over from nearby.
“Miss, are you alright?”
Bing Yi and Bing San also flew over one after another, looking at Yun Rou with faces full of delight.
“I am fine!”
Yun Rou shook her head. She merely glanced at the two, then turned her gaze back to Mo Fan and asked, “How did you come here?”
“Naturally, to rescue you!”
Mo Fan said with a smile.
Yun Rou was stunned for a moment. She suddenly felt her question was somewhat foolish. Then her willow-like brows furrowed slightly as she said, “Actually, you should not have come. They could not do anything to me.”
“I already learned everything from Bing Yi and the others. You risked danger for me. If I did not come to save you, then I would not be myself!”
Mo Fan shook his head, then thought of something and smiled as he said, “Indeed, they could not do anything to you. At most, they would just marry you off to that black tiger.”
“What, are you jealous?”
Yun Rou looked into Mo Fan’s eyes, her tone becoming much softer.
This time, it was Mo Fan’s turn to be stunned. Then he looked at Yun Rou, the corners of his mouth curling up as he said, “Do you hope I am jealous, or hope I am not?”
“I…”
Yun Rou was stumped by Mo Fan’s words and did not know how to answer for a moment. She only felt her heartbeat suddenly quicken a lot, like a deer rampaging inside, and her face became slightly hot. She immediately said in annoyance, “Too lazy to bother with you!”
With that, she directly turned her head away.
Seeing this, the smile on Mo Fan’s face grew even wider. This was the first time he had seen Yun Rou in such a girlish demeanour, and he found it quite amusing.
“It seems no matter how strong a woman is, deep down she is always a little woman!”
Mo Fan felt happy inside. Having been teased by female demons often in Black Wind Mountain, occasionally teasing Yun Rou now gave him great pleasure and inevitably a sense of accomplishment.
In contrast, Bing Yi and Bing San, seeing this scene from the side, both could not help widening their eyes, their mouths opening wide enough to swallow an egg.
This was also the first time they had seen their miss in such a state.
“It’s over, it’s over. Boss, the miss has completely fallen!”
“Fallen is good too. In the past, the miss always bore everything alone. Now she has finally found someone who can share her burdens and protect her. This is a good thing!”
“Ah?”
“Don’t you think Lai Bao this kid is pretty good? He has strength, he has loyalty. Though sometimes he is quite cunning and shameless, the more such a personality, the less likely he is to be taken advantage of by others, right?”
“This… but after all, he is just a toad!”
“So what if he is a toad?”
“As long as he has the ambition to swallow the heavens, he is far better than those frogs at the bottom of a well!”
“Uh… if you put it that way, it does make some sense!”
“So, we should be happy for the miss. No matter what demon Lai Bao is, as long as the miss likes him, we as guards must find ways to create opportunities for the miss!”
“Makes sense!”
After their initial shock, the two began exchanging voice transmissions, their inner thoughts exceedingly rich.
And just then, Yun Rou suddenly turned her head back, looked at Mo Fan, and asked, “Do you really have a way to leave here?”
“Yes, I will take you all out now!”
Mo Fan nodded, first drawing Baili Qing’er into the chang ghost space. Then he told everyone not to resist, opened his mouth, and sucked them all into his pouch.
“Ying Ying, begin!”
As Mo Fan’s voice rang out, the mini-form Ying Ying monster immediately flew out from his collar. Then a dragon scale on its forehead suddenly shone with light, enveloping both Mo Fan and itself.
When that light vanished, their figures disappeared without a trace.
After Mo Fan disappeared, a black shadow suddenly emerged from the grey mist.
“He actually vanished…”
The black shadow murmured, then terrifying divine sense spread out around him. Soon it covered the entire Nether Dead Land, but no matter how he probed, he could never find any trace of Mo Fan and his group.
“That chi dragon is strange. It can actually freely shuttle through the ancient grand array!”
“Forget it. It is good that they left. This ancestor is close to fully comprehending this array. Once this ancestor completely imprints his mark in this space, it will be the day this ancestor breaks free!”
“By then, the world is vast, and this ancestor can go anywhere!”
