Chapter 256 The Method of Stealing a House



Before the Tree Demon Clan's generals arrived, the Void-Breaking Bus had already entered the void and escaped successfully.

The realm of ghosts is vast, as Xia Tianqiong once heard the Ghost Bride mention.

But he had no idea how big it was before.

Now, the bus chair ghost tells him that it will take three days to reach the Void Ghost Clan's territory, and only then does he roughly understand how big the Ghost Realm is.

At the speed of the Void Bus, it would have circled the Earth two or three times in that time, but in the Ghost Realm, it only traveled from the Tree Ghost Clan's forbidden area to the Void Ghost Clan's settlement.

And this is only a small part of the realm of the supernatural.

During the journey, Xia Tianqiong could finally think about how to steal the Leng family's stronghold.

His primary goal was to take it over, since the Void Clan's territory had dozens of floating islands, each larger than his Sky Island Orchard.

If we could take them all, that would be amazing.

But that's definitely not easy!

So there is a second objective: to sink the floating island where the Leng family is located.

As the saying goes, if you can't have it, destroy it.

Three days later, the Void Bus stopped in the air a hundred miles away from the Void Clan's territory.

Because there are also treacherous generals on the island with a very long range of perception, we had to get off the bus early to avoid being discovered.

The car door opened, and Xia Tianqiong got out. With a thought, he released Leng Manjin and a dozen or so Leng family guards.

They then flew directly to the Void Clan's territory with them.

More than half an hour later, dozens of floating islands of various sizes could be seen floating above the clouds ahead.

Each island is vibrant with life and shrouded in mist, with exquisite classical pavilions and towers built against the mountains and by the water, standing side by side.

If Xia Tianqiong hadn't visited once before, I would have thought this was the legendary Heavenly Court of the Clouds!

Upon closer inspection, each floating island was found to be covered by a pale blue light shield.

This means that the island's defensive formations have been activated!

Xia Tianqiong immediately frowned.

According to Leng Jia's bizarre account, the Void Clan's base is a comprehensive commercial center. Oddities frequently fly to the island to buy and sell goods, so the defensive formations are rarely activated.

Unless there is some danger or special event.

Xia Tianqiong suddenly turned to Leng Manjin and asked, "Can your 'borrowing token' get me in?"

When he first came to the floating island to attend the auction, he had fought with Leng Manjin, who had used the power of the rules within the formation to deal with him.

I specifically asked about it a couple of days ago and learned that it was because Leng Manjin carried a 'Borrowing Power Token' that allowed him to borrow a portion of the power of the formation.

"sure."

Leng Manjin hesitated for a moment, then reluctantly took out a small golden round token and handed it to Xia Tianqiong. "It's probably because my father left with experts, weakening the island's strength. To avoid enemies coming after us, we activated the defensive shield."

Xia Tianqiong nodded, finding this explanation quite reasonable.

Instead of accepting the token, he took out the Heavenly Rope and tied his upper body up.

"From now on, execute the plan I've given you, understand?"

"clear."

Leng Manjin nodded with a complicated expression, then flew to the front and waved his hand, opening a gap in the light blue light barrier.

Xia Tianqiong and the other members of the Leng family flew in quickly and mysteriously, landing one after another on the floating island.

The once bustling street is now somewhat deserted. Apart from the shop owners and their employees, it's rare to see anyone else shopping.

Leng Manjin led the way, while Xia Tianqiong walked among the strange members of the Leng family.

It looks like they're escorting prisoners.

Along the way, every shop owner and employee recognized Leng Manjin and greeted him.

Taking the opportunity, Leng Manjin asked the two strange creatures if their father had returned.

If Leng Tianpeng has already led his team back, then it's not a base raid, but rather walking into a trap.

Fortunately, the answer was that they had not returned.

Xia Tianqiong and Leng Manjin both breathed a sigh of relief and then quickly headed to the Leng family mansion.

This floating island is the largest of all the islands and is known as the main island. The Leng family mansion is also the largest building complex on the island, housing seven hundred strange members of the Leng family.

"Young Master, why are you back?"

As Leng Manjingang entered the Leng family's gate, the old butler came to greet him.

It was an old man in his sixties or seventies, wearing a long black robe, somewhat hunched over, with a slightly bent back.

Upon seeing Leng Manjin return, his wrinkled old face showed not only surprise but also confusion.

Leng Manjin pointed at Xia Tianqiong, "My father asked me to bring him back. This person is too important and must be carefully guarded, otherwise he may be snatched away by other ghost clans."

The old butler glanced at Xia Tianqiong, but didn't think much of it. It knew that Leng Tianpeng's purpose in entering the human world was to obtain this human who had mastered forbidden techniques.

"Give him to this old servant. This old servant will lock him in the dungeon."

"No rush, my father asked me to tell you something. Go to my courtyard first."

After Leng Manjin finished speaking, he led Xia Tianqiong and the Leng family to his courtyard in a strange manner.

The old butler was taken aback, a little puzzled. Why couldn't he just say it directly?

It hesitated for a moment, then followed.

The Leng family mansion appears to be composed of a series of courtyard houses, covering a vast area but with very dense buildings.

Leng Manjin returned to his courtyard and then reached out his hand to the old butler.

“My father will not be returning from the human world for a while. He instructed me to temporarily take over the Leng family. Now give me the ‘Array Core Token’.”

The Array Pivot Token is a higher-level token than the Borrowing Token. Only with it can one have the opportunity to approach the Array Demon and possibly control the array here.

The old steward frowned slightly, looking at Leng Manjin with suspicion. "The head of the family instructed that the token be kept by this old servant, which is the usual practice."
