Chapter 329 Alluring Charm—Lord Yu
Unaware of her subordinate's thoughts, City Lord Yu thought her subordinate was quite considerate, knowing to care about her, the city lord.
Feeling very relieved, I waved to the window to indicate that I was alright, and then continued:
"Why haven't Ali and Yu Yan arrived yet? Could they be out of their minds and not even remember where the gates of the City of Rebirth are?"
The people standing by the carriage were speechless upon hearing this; they were truly at a loss for words.
As expected! Our city lord not only has a fiery temper, but also a sharp tongue. No wonder he can't find a partner; there's a reason for it.
"Tell me, has this Ghost King lost his mind? He's talking about building some new world Ghost King City, it's really ridiculous."
He doesn't even look at his own small group of people, and the territory of this region is so vast. He wants to rebuild Ghost King City. Isn't he just daydreaming?
Now look what's happened! They're even drawing manpower from our domains, making us so busy every day that we barely have time to breathe. Don't they know that our ten domains are the places that receive newborn souls?
We're already busy, and we've always been short-staffed. Now they want to pull a few more people from here to go.
If it weren't for the fact that he's the Ghost King, the one who pays our salaries, I would definitely have given him a piece of my mind...
"Hmm? The aura of living beings? So there really are living beings in our ghost realm! Those two weren't lying to me after all!"
Lord Yu, who was muttering to himself, suddenly caught the scent of several strangers as he finished speaking, and his words caught in his throat.
Thinking about the messages those two guys just sent, it suddenly dawned on me that those two guys weren't mentally unstable after all!
Good thing there were no problems! If there were no problems, I can continue working for her without needing to rest, and I can even save on compensation. It's absolutely fantastic!
After a brief moment of joy, she turned her attention back to the matter of the strangers.
As the group drew closer, the presence of strangers grew stronger, and random thoughts began to race through my mind.
How did this living person come to their ghost realm? Could it be that there's a passage they haven't noticed?
But that's not right. There are two passages connecting the Ghost Realm to the outside world: one is inside Ghost King City, and the other is in their Ten Domains.
However, the passages through the Ten Domains are all one-way, allowing entry but not exit. Therefore, the messengers who go out to collect souls always leave from the Ghost King City.
When there are few souls, the messengers will throw the souls directly into the passage, and the City of Rebirth will come to meet them.
When there are many souls, the soul-collecting messengers will personally deliver them, and their passage is not accessible to living people.
So, how exactly did these people get here?
After pondering for a long time without finding a solution, Lord Yu suddenly lifted the curtain of the carriage, flicked his sleeves, and stepped down from the carriage, his eyes fixed on the small black dot that was getting closer and closer in the distance.
Not only Lord Yu, but also the several men standing by the carriage looked solemnly at the group of people flying towards them from not far away, clearly sensing the presence of living beings.
Under the watchful eyes of these people, the aircraft soon arrived outside the City of Rebirth. As the aircraft landed, the group on board met the gazes of Lord Yu and his companions.
Upon seeing that flying magical artifact, she discovered that her two subordinates were also on it.
Lord Yu crossed his arms, raised an eyebrow, and looked Gu Xinyan and the others up and down before slowly speaking.
"I thought you were hallucinating. I didn't expect that a few living people would actually come to our ghost realm!"
Hearing that slightly charming voice, Gu Xinyan and the others instantly came to their senses. They never expected that the city lord of Wangsheng City would be such a beautiful woman.
And they look very young, but their real age is anyone's guess. Just think of Xu Yi and the others; they could be thousands or even tens of thousands of years old.
She wore a long black robe with gold trim, and her alluring figure could be vaguely seen inside.
Her long, jet-black hair was casually draped behind her, with a few stray strands playfully clinging to her cheeks.
Her fair, jade-like skin appeared even more translucent and beautiful against the backdrop of her black robe and the blood moon. Her slightly golden pupils looked at them with a smile.
Beneath that small, straight nose were rosy, slightly upturned lips that exuded a unique charm, a smile that was both ambiguous and enigmatic.
At this moment, he was leaning against the edge of the carriage with his arms crossed, his alluring eyes staring intently at Gu Xinyan and the others.
Although his movements were casual, the underlying aura and authority he exuded were not to be underestimated.
What a charming and alluring city lord!
Who doesn't love to look at beautiful women? Gu Xinyan definitely does. I reckon that Lu Yunting, that old-fashioned guy, is probably the only one in the group who isn't very interested.
The others were all mesmerized by the beauty, but this beauty was different from that of the mermaid; it was a more flamboyant and unrestrained kind of beauty!
Seeing the way everyone was staring at him in a daze, Lord Yu was in a very good mood. His previous irritation had completely disappeared.
The infatuated gazes of these strangers successfully pleased her. If they had truly wandered in by mistake, she could find a way to send them out.
"City Lord, these are interdimensional merchants. They specialize in doing business in various dimensions, and they've come here to do business as well."
Yu Yan and I just bought some things from their store, and they were all very good. The food even had ghost energy in it, and it was very pure ghost energy!
They're going to be opening a shop here for a while, City Lord. Ali thinks that with a few more business owners joining us...
Our City of Rebirth will surely attract many ghost cultivators! Who knows, some might even be willing to join us!
After the ghost messenger named Ali finished speaking, he winked in the direction of his city lord, the implication being particularly obvious.
He was afraid that his city lord would not understand his meaning and, in a fit of temper, arrest the men, which would be the end of them. After saying that, he was still a little worried and added.
"Lord City Lord, Boss Gu just said that although he won't be staying long this time, he might not leave next time he comes."
"So with Boss Gu and his team joining us, our City of Rebirth can definitely beat the other cities."
Ali became more and more excited as she spoke, and towards the end she couldn't help but gesticulate wildly, leaving Lord Yu and his entourage speechless.
