Chapter 231 The Door

Li Gui carefully relayed the words of the elders of the ghost clan.

Li Yan listened patiently, then suppressed his emotions and said, "Continue talking."

With Li Yan's speech, Li Gui didn't dare to delay at all, and continued speaking hastily.

"Some time ago, an invisible crack appeared in the southernmost skyline, and several elders teamed up to investigate."

"During the survey, the cracks expanded day by day, forming the shape of a door."

"The elders have exhausted all their methods and are unable to open that door."

"The elders boldly guessed that there should be another world behind the door."

"Because it is confirmed that Jiang Yu is not in this world, it is very likely that she went to the world behind the door."

There was a fiery light in Li Yan's eyes, "Yes, yes..."

"Notify all the ghosts, all give me to study that door, whoever can open that door, I will give you a lot of rewards!"

……

In the days that followed, in front of the gate leading to another world, countless ghosts came every day.

Some ghosts even set up tents on the spot near the door.

Under the reward, there must be a brave man.

Soon, a ghost with a scholar in front of him came to Li Yan through multiple notifications.

At that time, Li Yan was casually tapping the bones on the armrest of the throne with his white, shameless fingertips.

Sensing someone walking into the hall, Li Yan rolled his red pupils, moved his gaze down, and looked at the scholar ghost under the throne.

Li Yan said in a hoarse voice, "If you find anything, tell me."

The scholar said confidently, "King, I have found a way to open the door."

Li Yan's eyes lit up, and his expression became serious, "What can I do?"

The scholar put his hands behind his back, straightened his waist, and talked eloquently.

"During these days of observation, I found a phenomenon, the door seems to have a tendency to loosen."

"The more time passes, the more the door will show signs of loosening."

"At first I didn't understand what this meant. It wasn't until last night that my wife casually said that the Ghost Festival was coming soon, and I suddenly realized."

Li Yan seemed to understand something, and said, "You mean, on the day of the Ghost Festival, the door will open by itself?"

The scholar nodded excitedly, "Yes, that's what I mean!"

Li Yan stared fixedly at the scholar, and took a long time to look away.

If it is really as what scholars have said, the possibility that the Ghost Festival will open is indeed very high.

Li Yan raised his hand and waved, "Okay, let's go down to receive the award."

A ghost walked in from outside the door, leading the scholar towards the treasure house.

The award that Li Yan gave him was to be able to choose a treasure at will in the treasure house.

After the scholar followed the ghost away, Li Yan withdrew his gaze and stared at the ground thoughtfully.

Yan Luo suddenly appeared and stood beside Li Yan, "Master's whereabouts have been found, what are you going to do?"

"Hungry Ghost Festival will be in a few days, why don't you send a few cannon fodder to check behind the door?"

Li Yan raised his eyes and looked directly at Yan Luo's eyes, his eyes were full of seriousness, "No."

Li Yan stood up from the wrecked throne, "I'll go in person."

There was no need to test it out, as soon as he thought that Jiang Yu might be behind the door, he felt anxious and couldn't wait for a moment.

If it wasn't for the fact that the door hadn't been opened yet, he would have wanted to set off now.

If you send ghosts to investigate, you may miss the opportunity to enter the door.

After all, no one knows whether the door will be closed after it is opened.

If the door is only opened for one day during the Hungry Ghost Festival every year, then those who miss this year will have to wait for the Hungry Ghost Festival next year.

This is absolutely unacceptable to Li Yan.

……

Soon, the Ghost Festival will come.

Sure enough, it was the same as the scholars guessed.

At midnight, the originally closed door suddenly opened by itself.

Li Yan walked firmly towards the door with firm steps.

Behind the door, it was also midnight.

In the dark night sky, not a single star can be seen.

The entire sky was as black as ink, and even the moon seemed to be coated with a layer of haze, no longer emitting cold moonlight.

The whole city was shrouded in darkness, and only a few scattered households were left with their lights on.

It looked like the night owl hadn't run away.

On an empty street, a ghost suddenly appeared.

The street lamps were originally dedicated to exuding orange lights.

Because of the appearance of the ghost, it suddenly began to flicker continuously.

In the end, the street lamp sizzled twice, announcing the end of his career and being completely scrapped.

Li Yan looked around in the dark environment.

He picked a direction, and then released Huang Quan on his way.

In the blink of an eye, Li Yan appeared at the end of the street.

After a few flashes, Li Yan's figure disappeared into the dark night.

……

In the center of the city, Li Yan looked up at the sky.

Because he became the king, he could clearly feel that something was wrong in this world.

The whole city seemed to be shrouded in Yin Qi, and the Yin Qi was so strong that it was outrageous.

Li Yan guessed that there should be a lot of ghosts in this world.

If it is allowed to develop, the humans in this world may also go to extinction just like the humans in his original world.

Li Yan withdrew his gaze indifferently, as if he didn't care about it.

What does the life and death of human beings have to do with him? His only thought now is to find Jiang Yu.

Until Jiang Yu is found, everything else can be put in the back row.

The shadows on the ground behind Li Yan surged, as if something was about to break through the ground.

Li Yan looked back.

Yan Luo's whole body was wrapped in black and red yin energy, his body approached between reality and illusion, and only a rough outline could be seen clearly.

After Yan Luo inhaled the black-red Yin Qi into his body, his body gradually condensed into a ghost entity.

Yan Luo looked at Li Yan with his dark pupils.

Li Yan also happened to look at him, and the eyes of both sides converged.

Li Yan bent down and patted Yan Luo on the shoulder, with a little surprise in his tone.

"Why did you come too?"

Yan Luo sighed maturely, "It's not because I don't trust you."

Li Yan smiled softly, "I have nothing to worry about."

Yan Luo rolled his eyes at him, "Not only did I follow, many ghosts also flooded into this world."

Li Yan frowned slightly, "The resources in the original world were scarce, so it's no wonder they would step in."

"When you came, was the door closed?"

Yan Luo shook his head, "I have paid special attention to it, the door is not showing any tendency to close, and it will probably be open for a while."

Li Yan frowned even more when he heard this, "That's a bad thing, most of the ghosts will definitely choose the world behind the door, and with their restless temperament, they will definitely toss a lot of things."
