Can't Afford to Offend My Scheming Disciple

184. Elder of Ghost

Nan Chen clapped his hands and someone came in.

“This is… the Ghost!”

“How does a Ghost come?” Everyone gasped.

“Nan Chen, what have you done? Why does a Ghost appear here?”

The moment when Nan Chen released his oppressing air, a deadly silence fell upon the conference hall.

“If I want to do anything to you, I don’t need the Ghost to do it. Don’t you need an explanation?” Nan Chen pointed at the Ghost and said, “This is the explanation I give you.”

Seeing everyone look at him, the Ghost bent slightly and bowed to Qing Yangzi, Zhuo Hua, and Nan Chen, saying slowly, “I am the Elder of the Ghost. I come here for a peaceful coexistence between the Ghost and Cultivation World.”

Right after the Elder of Ghost spoke, someone blurted out, “Nonsense. After humans die, they should go to the next life. How can the Ghost and humans coexist? This is against the universal rule, and we will be punished for breaking it.”

“Mr. Zhou, what are you talking about?” Nan Chen picked up the teacup, blew at it, and took a sip. He continued, “Birth, death, illness and old age follow the natural rules. Our cultivation is against the rule in the first place. Now we are only asking you to coexist with one more tribe. Humans can coexist with the Demon and the Beast. Why do you have the deep hatred for the Ghost?”

“It’s different. Ghost cultivators are cultivated by the souls of a dead people. Besides, we destroyed the Ghost years ago, so how could we coexist? Demon Lord, are you trying to benefit from the war between us?” This man concluded this was Nan Chen’s scheme, which could be possible.

“It seems that the Muyang Temple has colluded with the Demon as well. First, you defend the Ghost Emperor, and now you scheme against the Cultivation World with the Demon.” After a short while, someone stood up and stared coldly at the three people sitting in the high seats.

Some people hesitated. “Impossible, Muyang Temple is the largest sect in Cultivation World. How could it collude with the Demon?”

“Nothing is impossible. Zhuo Hua is the top cultivator in Cultivation World, and now he is the partner of Demon Lord. It’s not impossible for Muyang Temple to join the Demon.”

“I don’t think the Muyang Temple is safe, so I’m leaving first.” Someone rose and was about to walk outside.

Seeing that someone was leaving, many people stood up. They had just come out of the damn underground palace and they didn’t want to die here.

The man who took the lead just walked to the door when it slammed shut in front of him.

“I’ve said that if I want to do anything to you, I don’t need the Ghost to do it. Do you think you can leave if I don’t let you?” The door was closed and the sunlight was blocked. Although the candles in the hall lit up the moment the door closed, Nan Chen’s voice seemed particularly dangerous in this suddenly dark hall. Everyone froze.

They stopped and looked at Nan Chen in silence.

The cultivator who took the lead to leave blushed, but he didn’t dare to speak. He sensed the danger in Nan Chen’s eyes, and he was almost out of breath under Nan Chen’s oppressing air. He looked around, and it seemed only he was being oppressed. He had to grit his teeth and pretended nothing had happened for the purpose of saving his face.
