Can't Afford to Offend My Scheming Disciple

198.   A Young Man

After Nan Chen left the Luo house, he went straight to the Netherworld Palace.

Luo Yuan could only search the four main streets, and he was not able to search in the palace, as the king resided there.

Nan Chen can’t rule out the possibility that Zhuo Hua was in the Netherworld Palace. No matter where his master was, Nan Chen had to be with him.

On the other hand, Zhuo Hua remembered that when they left Elder Qing Dan’s room, he accidentally encountered some mechanism. A huge suction force sucked him into an unknown place. He only knew that before he was sucked away, he only saw Nan Chen’s panic and the killing intent in his eyes.

When Zhuo Hua opened his eyes, he found that he was no longer in Muyang Temple. He looked at his hands and found that he was now a soul.

He was on a busy street, surrounded by the bustling crowd.  Zhuo Hua found that they were all souls, and they were not surprised to see a new comer suddenly appear.

After looking around, he was sure that this was not Cultivation World. He worked up his soul sense and found a new energy instead of the familiar spiritual power flowing in his body.

Although it was different from spiritual power, it was indeed his own power.

He was new to the city, and he didn’t know where to go. However, he knew that Li’s disappearance and the array had something to do with Elder Qing Dan since the array had brought him here.

In that case, it was likely that Li was here as well.

Zhuo Hua randomly stopped a young man on the street and asked him about the city. In the beginning, the young man was annoyed. When he saw Zhuo Hua’s face, he paused and then got very patient, explaining to him in details.

Fifteen minutes later, Zhuo Hua had a rough idea and knew he was in the nether world.

The young man stared at Zhuo Hua. “Mister, you have just arrived here, and you are not familiar with the city. I have a vacant room at home, why don’t you stay at my place for a couple of days?”

Zhuo Hua looked at the young man, who calmly invited him with eagerness in his eyes.

However…

“Thank you for your kindness, but I have something important to do. If I meet you in the future, I will treat you to dinner.” Zhuo Hua refused the young man with a gentle smile, which was polite but distant.

Seeing that Zhuo Hua was busy, the young man could do nothing but say goodbye.

The young man narrowed his eyes as he watched Zhuo Hua walk towards the Netherworld Palace.

Zhuo Hua’s destination was the Netherworld Palace. Elder Qing Dan was extremely powerful. Although Li was injured, he was the Ghost Emperor. The person who could easily take Li away must be related to the upper class of Purgatory City.

They young man told him he was on the South Street, which was half a month’s walk away from the palace on foot. There were no transportations in this world. Powerful people flew on swards, while weaker people had to walk.

Although Zhuo Hua could fly on the sword, which was rare, he didn’t want to cause any unnecessary troubles. He chose to walk to the palace and gather more information about it on the way.

However, the trouble came no matter how much he disliked it.

Ever since Zhuo Hua arrived, someone had been stalking him. He didn’t want to cause any trouble, only thinking of finding Li as soon as possible. He didn’t know what Qing Dan wanted, but he didn’t want anything to happen to Li.
