"Silly girl, I am the Demon Lord, what could possibly happen to me? Who could possibly hurt me?" Yin Ming said helplessly, "You're too worried about me, I'm almost flattered."
Don't give me that.
Liu Yue's lips twitched slightly. "Alright, let's go. Let's go to Mo Yun City. Hopefully, those who survived the massacre in Mo Yun City back then are still alive."
The spirit of her patriarch told her.
After the clan chief saved them, he kept a secret and branded them.
The branding allowed them to evade Mo Que's pursuit and also ensured that they could be found a hundred years later.
However, the prerequisite is that they have to live.
When a person dies, it's like a lamp going out! Once someone is dead, no mark is of any use.
"good."
Yin Ming nodded indulgently.
A smile crept onto his lips. His Yue'er was truly amazing!
=========
The news of the Ghost Realm's unsealing caused an uproar throughout the entire Nine Provinces! Especially in the border cities that were relatively close to the Ghost Realm, people were filled with anxiety.
Especially in Moyun City, although more than three hundred years have passed, Moyun City has not yet recovered its former prosperity.
"How could the seal on the Ghost Realm have been broken out of nowhere?"
"Once these demons break free from the seal, won't our border cities become their slaughterhouses?"
"The temple has withdrawn its troops, what other options do we have?"
The lords of the border cities, who had always been at odds, miraculously sat down together to discuss the matter because of this incident.
"My life is over, it's over!"
The city lord of Tianfeng City sighed and tapped his teacup on the table.
He looked at the City Lord of Moyun City: "City Lord Bai, do you have any countermeasures?"
"What countermeasures can I possibly devise?"
The city lord of Moyun City felt a chill run down his spine.
Although he did not witness the horrific scene that year, according to records... countless people died and were injured; at that time, Moyun City was a large mass grave!
“Once the Ghost Realm is broken, the first place those vicious ghosts will go is…” The city lord of Yunlan City gave Moyun City a deep look, since his Yunlan City was the furthest from the Ghost Realm anyway.
Only after the first five cities are all destroyed will it be Yunlan City's turn.
Thinking about it this way, I don't seem so anxious anymore.
The other five city lords all cast pitying glances at the city lord of Moyun City.
The city lord of Moyun City felt even more agitated by those looks. Did these old fogies call him to a meeting to discuss countermeasures or to tell him that he was about to die?
If it's the latter... he'd want to flip the table in a heartbeat!
"Only by joining forces with our five cities can we see a glimmer of hope in resisting the Ghost Clan." The city lord of Tianfeng City sighed. Although Tianfeng City was not the first to bear the brunt, if the defense line of Moyun City were to break, Tianfeng City would not be far from its demise.
"Yes, now we have no choice but to unite!"
The Lord of Moyun City deeply agreed with the Lord of Tianfeng City's words. After speaking, he glanced at the Lord of Yunlan City seemingly unintentionally, "If anyone is going to be a coward, then I will not fight back! Anyway, I'm going to die sooner or later, so I might as well give up and let you do what you want."
Although Moyun City is the closest place to the Ghost Domain, its defenses are the strongest among the five border cities! This is because after the massacre more than three hundred years ago, the temple sent soldiers to guard the area, and the entrance to the Ghost Domain was also reinforced with the city's protective array.
If Moyun City collapses, then the cities that follow... won't get any benefits either.
"Brother Bai, that's a bit pessimistic of you," Yun Lancheng chuckled. "How could we possibly back down when facing a powerful enemy?! We'll definitely fight together!"
"Report—!"
Outside, the guards' slightly panicked voices could be heard.
The Lord of Moyun City was startled by the sound.
"What's all the fuss about? Is something urgent?!"
"Someone claims to be the princess of the Ghost Realm and requests an audience with the city lord."
The city lord of Moyun City, who had just picked up the tea on the table, suddenly trembled, and the pale yellow tea spilled all over him.
"The Ghost Clan Princess?" The city lord of Moyun City frowned. Wasn't Jun Feiyan already dead?
"That ghost princess also... also said..."
"What did you say? Speak in one breath, don't stutter!" The city lord of Moyun City was somewhat irritable.
"The Ghost Princess said that if the city lord does not agree to meet, she will storm in and step over the corpses of the guards to meet the city lord."
"presumptuous!"
The city lord of Moyun City slammed his fist on the table, "Damn it!"
"I suddenly remembered I have something to do, so I'll be going now." Yun Lancheng immediately stood up.
"I...I suddenly remembered that my old hen laid an egg today, I have to go back and check on it."
The City Lord of Yunmo followed closely behind.
Of the five city lords, only the City Lord of Tianfeng and the City Lord of Moyun remain.
Lord Moyun wanted to run away, but he had nowhere to run. This was... his home!
The Ghost Clan Princess... Mo Yuncheng saw her once when he was young.
His talent was extraordinary, and he was even called the number one cultivator on the continent!
Even though she has been dead for so many years, people still sigh when they talk about her; it's such a pity.
Has Jun Feiyan been resurrected?
"Let her in. I want to see who she really is!"
Lord Moyun forced himself to calm down, but his legs... were shaking uncontrollably.
"Old Bai, your leg..."
"Leg ache, leg ache! It's alright, it's alright." City Lord Moyun pressed down on his trembling leg. Damn leg, stop shaking! I can't lose in terms of momentum!
Soon, Liuyue entered with the guards.
