Chapter 540: Heart-catching Soul-Calling Banner
Jiang Ci's heart skipped a beat. "What has the Ghost Gate been doing all these years?"
"Of course you can do whatever you want, as you please." Guimei said this with a proud look on his face.
Jiang Ci’s face turned black!
It turns out that Ghost Gate has not received any merits over the years and has even done a lot of evil?
She suddenly felt like she was having a heart attack.
Seeing that she was unsteady on her feet, Qingfeng supported her and said in surprise, "The Ghost Gate doesn't sound like a good thing. How could you think that the Ghost Gate would do good things?"
Jiang Ci is suffering from persistent myocardial infarction...
Yes, if Guimen really did good deeds, it would not have become a childhood shadow for Murong Jinran.
At this moment, she even had the urge to tear Ci Xin to pieces!
Thinking of some of the people from Guimen back then, Jiang Ci said a few names in succession and asked Guimei if he had heard of them.
Gui Mei shook his head. "I don't know any of the people you mentioned. If the Ghost Gate has been cleansed as you said, they would have already..."
Jiang Ci was silent.
Qingfeng looked at her and had some guesses in his mind. He thought that this girl might be a ghost who had come back to life through a dead body. Otherwise, how could she know the secrets of the Ghost Gate in the past?
But this has nothing to do with him. He just wants to see the leader of Ghost Gate.
A man, a fairy and a ghost walked forward in silence, passing through the black fog from the mountain gate and arriving at the Ghost Gate Hall.
Looking at the once magnificent and solemn hall, it has become a deserted and cold palace, with moss growing on the ground and the walls covered with vines, a scene of desolation.
Jiang Ci: “…”
My heart aches even more.
This ghost palace was carefully selected by her from the underworld. It was specially built by the architect who built the imperial palace during her lifetime, together with a group of evil ghosts, who worked day and night for a hundred days. But now it has become such a miserable and dilapidated state.
She looked at it and felt as if it was just yesterday.
"Ci Xin doesn't even ask a ghost to take care of it? Does he like living in such a dirty and messy place?"
Gui Mei said truthfully: "This has always been a forbidden place for ghosts. Unless summoned by the sect master, no ghost dares to approach here. The restrictions outside the mountain gate can scare them to death."
Qing Feng was suspicious: "This place doesn't look like a place where people live. Does your sect leader really live here?"
Jiang Ci also had doubts.
When I pushed open the door of the ghost palace, I saw that it was even more messy inside. All the furnishings were smashed and covered with a thick layer of dust. It didn't look like anyone lived there at all.
Jiang Ci turned his head, frowned and asked Gui Mei: "When was the last time you saw him?"
"It was more than ten years ago." Gui Mei looked at the mess on the ground and had a bad feeling in his heart, "I wonder if something happened to the master of the sect."
Jiang Ci said quietly, "The Ghost Palace has access control. These things could only have been smashed by him."
It seemed as if Ci Xin was deliberately trying to destroy all the beauty she left behind.
Whether it is a person or anything else.
He is like this all the time.
Jiang Ci felt helpless.
She would rather he fight her openly, but he just wouldn't.
He destroyed all the people and things she left behind with his own hands, out of her sight.
It was just like she destroyed his country with her own hands when he was sleeping soundly and knew nothing.
The sword that she swung out thousands of years ago finally struck herself with force.
This is all the cycle of cause and effect, and retribution will come.
Jiang Ci searched the Ghost Palace but found no trace of Ci Xin at all.
"Do you have any way to find your sect leader?" Qingfeng asked Guimei.
The ghost shook his head.
"How come you don't know anything?"
Gui Mei said unhappily, "The Sect Master has always been a mysterious figure that can only be seen from head to tail. Do you think he can be seen just because you say so?"
Jiang Ci came out of the Ghost Palace and looked at the rock standing in the center of the palace.
The rocks had long been covered by vines, and the words on them could no longer be seen clearly.
She threw out a talisman.
The talisman instantly caught fire, burning the vines completely.
His fingertips brushed away the ashes, revealing a line of words carved on the rock.
——Eliminate evil and do good, accumulate virtue and benevolence
The words are still there, but they have been chopped into pieces by swords and knives. There are traces of damage all over them, and you can vaguely make out these eight words.
Jiang Ci looked at the messy sword marks, recognized that they were the unique marks of Tai Chi sword, and his heart was shocked.
An image suddenly flashed through my mind of Xuanyuan Junze madly swinging the Tai Chi sword at the eight big characters with a face full of hatred.
The ghost was surprised to see the writing: "So there are words on the stone. Every time I was summoned here, I always saw the master sitting on this stone in a daze."
Jiang Ci asked, "Does he often sit here?"
The ghost nodded.
Jiang Ci felt mixed emotions as she gently stroked the mottled handwriting. Every sword mark seemed to be slashing at her heart, making her feel uncomfortable.
Xuanyuan Junze must have hated her to death, which is why he expressed such strong hatred towards the eight words she carved with her own hands.
"Compassion—"
Jiang Ci shouted towards the empty ghost palace: "If you can hear me, please show up. I'm already here."
"No matter whether the grudges are new or old, we will settle them face to face."
"Stop hiding from me."
Now she understood.
It was never that she couldn't find him, but when this person deliberately hid, she couldn't find any clues at all.
Over the years, he has been in Beiyuan and Guimen.
The ghost palace was eerie and terrifying, and the only response she got was silent silence.
"If you don't come out, I can only force you out in my own way."
When Gui Mei heard this, he stopped her and said, "No matter what you want to do, I can't just watch you hurt the Sect Master."
Jiang Ci didn't know what expression to use to respond to her, and said with a smile: "You are such a silly child."
Ghost: “…”
Qingfeng: “?”
Jiang Ci stood outside the hall, his hands clasped together, chanting a spell that neither of them could understand.
At first, neither of them knew what she was going to do, until the black fog shrouding the Ghost Palace inside and out began to surge and gather towards her.
Qingfeng's expression changed: "What are you summoning?"
"Summon what should belong to me." Jiang Ci shouted softly: "The Soul-Calling Pennant, appear!"
Hearing this name, the ghost's expression changed drastically, "Heart-catching Soul-calling Banner? Isn't that the sect master's magic weapon?"
Qingfeng was also shocked.
Because the purpose of his trip was to borrow the soul-calling flag.
She actually said that the Soul-Calling Pennant belonged to her? !
There was a hint of smile in Qingfeng's eyes. If it was true, then borrowing the Soul-Calling Banner would definitely be a success.
As the black fog condensed more and more, a huge black whirlwind appeared outside the Ghost Palace.
Jiang Ci stared at the black mist and frowned slightly, "Didn't you take it away..."
A black soul-calling banner slowly appeared in the black vortex.
She stretched out her hand.
The soul-calling flag seemed to have a spirit and fell from the sky into her hands.
The moment Jiang Ci touched the soul-calling flag, it immediately made a buzzing sound, as if cheering for the call from its master.
