Chapter 379: 218, am I also a part of your play?_2
The young woman couldn’t help but stop in her tracks and said, “...”
Is she mute? Not very good at speaking?
Meanwhile, a little girl had already placed a small hand on the statue of the Red-Horned Ghost King, and then the number of her merit immediately changed from fourteen to “four”.
This was a streak of ten.
As ten Divine Skills slots were opened, amidst a flash of green light, a red glow suddenly solidified on one of the Divine Skills slots.
Eventually, the red glow transformed into a skull.
“Divine Skills bestowed?”
“The Red-Horned Ghost King has revealed his sanctity?”
“Divine Skills!”
Because the skull apparition was so eye-catching, all the onlookers around saw it, and soon the cultivators at the scene all showed looks of envy.
Among them, several were shocked in addition to their envy.
They recognized what the skull was: a Divine Skill.
The renowned Divine Skill of the Red-Horned Ghost King—Ghost Path Imprudence!
The young woman, one of those shocked, quickly invited Tan Shuchang: “May I invite the gentleman and your esteemed daughter to speak in a different place? I assure you that this will be entirely beneficial and not harmful at all to both the gentleman and your esteemed daughter.”
“What esteemed daughter?”
As soon as Dongdong turned her head, she saw a Demon Cultivator speaking with another woman and hurried over, only to hear an astonishing conversation.
Since when did this Demon Cultivator have a daughter?
“Little sister, the Divine Skill you have gained is called Ghost Path Imprudence. It is a renowned Divine Skill of the Red-Horned Ghost King, with immense power. So I was discussing with your father about inviting you and him to speak at another location,” the young woman quickly said as she saw the girl who had been bestowed the Divine Skill by the Red-Horned Ghost King coming over.
However, upon hearing this from the young woman, Dongdong’s face darkened, and she pointed at Tan Shuchang, puffing up with anger, “He’s an idiot, don’t listen to his nonsense! If there has been any offense, please forgive us, sister!”
Though she was huffy, the little girl still paid attention to her manners.
Once again taken aback, the young woman said, “...”
For some reason, she suddenly felt as if she had become part of someone else’s play?
Realizing the true relationship between the two before her, she changed her approach and asked, “How do you both feel about this? I must be frank, my elder brother cultivates on Phoenix Tree Mountain and has instructed me that if anyone is bestowed a Divine Skill by the Red-Horned Ghost King, he can recommend them to Phoenix Tree Mountain!”
“Phoenix Tree Mountain?” Dongdong, upon hearing this, looked at Tan Shuchang, and seeing the Demon Cultivator give a slight nod, she agreed.
However, although she was following the two ghosts, the young girl remained silent throughout and maintained a stony face, causing the ghosts to become increasingly suspicious.
Because the two ghosts wondered if they had brought one of their own kind.
As these two ghosts traveled by the Ghost Path, they crossed a vast distance in a mere moment, arriving outside a village.
It was a village where every household hung red lanterns, yet not a single figure was visible in the village.
“Alright, go in! The only requirement of the task is to survive until dawn or find the real ghost in the village to consider the task complete,” said the two ghosts.
After speaking, the two ghosts turned and left.
They stepped onto the Ghost Path, and a ghostly light gradually spread, allowing the ghosts to cover miles with a single step despite their slow pace.
And to anyone watching, it seemed as if the two ghosts had suddenly vanished.
Dongdong withdrew her gaze and then, with a rigid face, she entered the village. Unsure of how to find the real ghost, she knocked on the doors of houses and asked if there was a ghost inside.
Her voice was soft, tinged with a trace of impatience due to being duped by a certain Demon Cultivator.
Thus, the chilling questioning echoed repeatedly.
Knock, knock, knock!
“Excuse me... is there a ghost inside?”
...
Meanwhile, as the young girl was politely searching for ghosts in the Ghost World, Tan Shuchang had arrived at a residential area in Skeleton City. He stood at the entrance of a dwelling, not knocking, but simply clasped his hands together.
Soon, accompanied by a rising red mist, a figure appeared out of it.
This was a young man who looked human, his body showing no distinct red, except for a single red horn on the top of his head.
The horn was fierce, its aura chilling.
However, this naturally did not affect Tan Shuchang. He greeted the man with a smile, saying, “I’ve come uninvited, I hope Brother Chen will forgive me!”
