The Legendary Son-in-law of the Emperor-Chapter 1561 - 1558: Ghost God Valley

"All... dead!?"

Qingming Zhange felt his heart stop beating!

How is this possible!?

Those who went to the Nine-story Pavilion were the most powerful figures among the three major Ghost Clans of Ghost Dragon City, and there were even elders from the Ancestral Land, all to eradicate the Nine-story Pavilion in one fell swoop.

But now, all those elders are dead!?

"No, I must immediately report this back to the Ancestral Land!"

Qingming Zhange, after all, was a young Supreme of the Qingming Ghost Clan in Ghost Dragon City, and quickly regained his composure and made a decision.

Clang!

At this moment, a black saber light suddenly appeared, seemingly severing heaven and earth.

In an instant.

Qingming Zhange was split in two, his Divine Soul also extinguished.

Not only Qingming Zhange, but none of the young Supremes of the three major Ghost Clans were spared.

In the darkness, a figure in a Black Robe emerged, wearing a ghost mask, with a black Heavenly Saber on her back and another in her hand.

Through the ghost mask, her eyes were filled with boundless indifference.

The Black Blade Sect.

Qiao Xinyu.

After casually eliminating these young Supremes of the three major Ghost Clans, Qiao Xinyu’s figure gradually dissipated.

Meanwhile, Bai Zhiyu descended into the mansion of the Desolate Ghost Clan.

All were annihilated.

"Oh..."

"Is there a straggler?"

Bai Zhiyu sensed a faint presence deep in the mansion, seemingly sleeping.

He, in a flash, arrived to see the young Desolate Ghost Clan member lying in bed, asleep.

He was about to take the young man’s life but then withdrew his hand.

"Mysterious Dragon Fragrance..."

Bai Zhiyu smelled something unusual.

He assessed the young Desolate Ghost Clan member, and various images flickered through his mind.

"Ah, I see. His straightforward and fierce nature caused his clan members not to tell him certain things, even using Mysterious Dragon Fragrance..."

"Forget it, since you’re an innocent, I’ll spare your life."

Bai Zhiyu pointed a finger, and a Mysterious Light flashed at the young Desolate Ghost Clan member’s brow.

Moments later.

"What happened to me..."

Huanggui Choukuang was bewildered, slowly waking up.

"Hmm?"

Huanggui Choukuang saw someone in his room, startling him, but then his eyes glazed over and quickly refocused, forming an eerie symbol.

Subsequently, Huanggui Choukuang bowed respectfully before Bai Zhiyu.

—————

Ye Xuan and Yun Daoli left the Nine-story Pavilion, heading towards Ghost God Valley.

Ghost God Valley was a renowned Sacred Land in the Ghost Great World.

Legend has it that the first Ghost Clan member of the Ghost Great World was born in Ghost God Valley.

Therefore, Ghost God Valley is venerated as the Land of Origin by the major Ghost Clans of the Ghost Great World.

But this is only a legend, not all Ghost Clans believe it.

Especially after Great Emperor Level beings emerged in the three major Ghost Clans, the status of Ghost God Valley declined.

Though the believers still uphold Ghost God Valley as the Land of Origin, their control has dwindled.

All major Ghost Clans have a presence in Ghost God Valley, mingling like fish and dragons.

Ghost God Valley and Ghost Dragon City are millions of miles apart, but for Ye Xuan and Yun Daoli, it’s just a matter of a thought.

Almost in the blink of an eye, the two arrived at Ghost God Valley.

Returning to the old place, Ye Xuan felt no nostalgia.

Ghost God Valley was as it always had been, only more chaotic.

For the believers to think they could manage the entire Ghost God Valley was a fool’s dream.

Thinking this, they had reached their destination.

The Ghost God Hall.

"The Ghost God Hall forbids all outsiders from entering."

When the two arrived at the hall entrance, they were blocked by two Ghost Clan members, their gazes cold, filled with warning.

However, the strength of these two Ghost Clan members was merely at the brink of the Saint Realm.

The two didn’t pay much heed to them and entered in an instant.

"Where are they?"

When the two Ghost Clan guards came to their senses, they found the intruders gone. 𝘧𝘳𝘦ℯ𝓌𝘦𝒷𝘯𝑜𝑣𝘦𝓁.𝒸𝘰𝓂

"Ha, maybe they knew our might and left voluntarily."

"Yes, just a small Human Clan, how could they dare act recklessly on our Ghost Clan’s territory?"

The two Ghost Clan members muttered to themselves.

At this moment, Ye Xuan and Yun Daoli were already inside the Ghost God Hall.

The entire hall gave an oppressive feeling.

The two walked along the only splendid avenue, flanked by dark, misty shadows.

This avenue led to the depths of the Ghost God Hall, where the ancestors of the Ghost Clan — the Ghost God — were venerated.

"Emperor Ye, are the legends of Ghost God Valley true?"

Inside the Ghost God Hall, Yun Daoli couldn’t help but be curious.

He had been in the Ghost Great World a long time, so he was familiar with the legends of Ghost God Valley.

But whether they were true was another question.

"No one knows."

Ye Xuan slightly shook his head and said, "Indeed, a formidable Ghost Clan member once emerged from Ghost God Valley. He wasn’t part of the three major Ghost Clans, nor any other significant Ghost Clan, but the most obscure and weakest, one without even a clan name."

"But whether he was the first Ghost Clan member of the Ghost Great World is unknown."

"The most obscure and weakest Ghost Clan?"

Yun Daoli was taken aback: "Isn’t the Ghost Clan’s strength determined by bloodline? The weaker the Ghost Clan, the weaker the bloodline and lower the potential. What became of the Ghost Clan member born in Ghost God Valley later?"

Ye Xuan’s mind flashed with memories of that Ghost Clan member, and he softly said, "Later, the Ghost Great World became one of the Ten Realms."

"You may not know that history well, but back then, the Ghost Great World, though called a Great World, in terms of real strength, was at the bottom among the Three Thousand Great Worlds."

Yun Daoli’s pupils slightly contracted, deeply shocked.

This meant that the weak Ghost Clan member born in Ghost God Valley, with his strength alone, lifted the Ghost Great World into the ranks of the Ten Realms!

Yun Daoli felt puzzled: "Given such merit from this Ghost Clan elder, why is there no record of her in the Ghost Great World?"

Ye Xuan chuckled lightly and said, "Because the Ghost Clan of that era all died."

Yun Daoli trembled at the implication, imagining a terrifying outcome.

Ye Xuan leisurely said, "You’re correct in guessing, she killed every Ghost Clan member of that era."

Yun Daoli remained silent for a long time before speaking as they walked to the end of the avenue, "Why would she do this?"

Yun Daoli was filled with confusion.

To singularly elevate the Ghost Great World to the Ten Realms, only to slaughter every Ghost Clan member?

For what reason?

"I’ve sought this answer before but never found anything conclusive."

Ye Xuan gazed at the grand Ghost God Dharma Form at the end, softly musing, "Perhaps she had her reasons."
