"Thank you, brother."
Ximen Zhiruo now knew the value of the necklace. Seeing the envy in the old ancestor's eyes, she was also moved and said something emotionally.
Tang Xiaobao smiled and said, "You're so polite."
"Sir, I'm going back first. How about you two brothers chat first?"
Ximen Wu Yu knew that there was no point in staying any longer. His goal for today had been achieved, and he was extremely happy.
It is not necessary for Ximen Zhiruo to marry Tang Xiaobao. Instead of being his woman, wouldn't it be the same to be his sister?
Moreover, Ximen Zhiruo does not have to leave with Tang Xiaobao, which is also a great help to the Ximen family.
You know, Ximen Ruoruo is now at the half-step Immortal Emperor level, and is also the top master in the entire Ghost Town. Apart from Ximen Wu Yu himself, who else dares to underestimate Ximen Zhiruo?
That's almost courting death.
Tang Xiaobao said: "Okay, you go back first."
After Ximen Wuyu left, the two siblings sat down again.
The entire hall was empty, and all the staff stood far away. No one dared to disturb them.
The two of them actually had nothing to talk about.
However, after a while, the shopkeeper suddenly came over and handed a letter to Tang Xiaobao, saying, "Master Ximen, someone just sent you a letter."
Tang Xiaobao took the letter, opened it and saw only one line of words inside.
"Today at midnight, we will have a decisive battle at the Cliff of Broken Souls."
The signature is very simple, just a skull.
Tang Xiaobao frowned. He felt a strong murderous and gloomy aura from the letter.
It seems to be from the ghost tribe.
He was a little puzzled. There was no conflict between him and the ghost clan in this realm, so how come people from the ghost clan suddenly appeared?
ah!
Ximen Zhiruo suddenly exclaimed.
She saw the skull.
Tang Xiaobao was stunned and asked curiously, "Do you recognize this sign?"
Ximen Zhiruo's face turned pale, and she waved to the shopkeeper beside her: "You go down first."
For safety reasons, she waved her hand and set up a barrier. She was now at the half-step Immortal Emperor realm, and it was impossible for ordinary people to break through the barrier she set up.
It's absolutely safe now.
"Tell me, you know what
"What?" Tang Xiaobao asked.
"What does the letter say?"
Ximen Zhiruo asked carefully.
"Appoint me tonight at midnight to go to the Cliff of Broken Souls for a duel to the death."
Tang Xiaobao said calmly.
"You can't go, brother, you must not go."
Ximen Zhiruo said quickly.
"Why, do you know who the other party is?"
Tang Xiaobao was puzzled.
Ximen Zhiruo nodded: "I just found out about this too, because I became the head of the Ximen family. Before, I didn't know who they were."
"Tell me everything you know. It seems these people are from the ghost tribe."
Tang Xiaobao laughed.
"Brother, don't be careless. Don't go. It's too dangerous."
Ximen Zhiruo looked worried.
"Do you think I'm afraid of them? You can't persuade me. If you really care about me, tell me everything you know. Only by knowing your enemy and your own enemy can you win every battle."
Tang Xiaobao was still smiling, as if he didn't take this matter to heart.
Ximen Zhiruo seemed to have thought of something, and finally relaxed her expression: "If you must go, I believe that with your cultivation level, you will be fine, but you still have to be careful. This group of people is not easy to deal with. They are too mysterious and too cruel."
"What do you mean?"
Tang Xiaobao was full of doubts.
Ximen Zhiruo finally explained in a serious tone, "I don't know the name of this organization, but they have existed in Ghost City for countless years. They have business dealings with the Nangong family, our Ximen family, and some of the big families in Ghost City. They purchase human souls from us, and they can provide us with some materials unique to the ghost clan, such as the Nine Nether Holy Water, etc. No one has ever seen them, but no one dares to challenge them, because a long time ago, there was another super power in Ghost City. That super power even had two Immortal Emperors in charge, but in the end they angered this group of people, and overnight, they were directly wiped out. The key is that the incident happened without anyone noticing. The people of that family all disappeared out of thin air. In the end, someone found many bones at the foot of the Soul-Breaking Cliff. Judging from the clues at the scene, the people of that big family all died at the foot of the Soul-Breaking Cliff."
After a pause, she continued, "Broken Soul Cliff is most likely their base or headquarters. They don't live in the ghost town. Although there are ghosts here, they are all disguised as humans. No one can recognize them, and they are not...
They will cause trouble, but they never stay in the ghost town. We don't know how many of them there are, but they are really powerful. Those two Immortal Emperors were killed silently, so you can imagine how powerful they are. "
"The key is that they are too secretive. If Soul-Breaking Cliff is really their stronghold, then you will definitely be ambushed by them if you go there. That's why I want you to be extremely careful. If you really want to go, let the ancestor and I accompany you."
Ximen Zhiruo said seriously.
Tang Xiaobao laughed and said, "You sound so mysterious. It seems like they really are someone important. But I don't understand why they came after me. I have no grudge against them."
“Is it because you destroyed the Nangong family and destroyed their business?”
“I always feel that this is not the reason.”
Tang Xiaobao shook his head: "Forget it, there's no need to think too much about it. I'll know when I get there."
"Brother, let the ancestor go with me. If necessary, I will bring the clan members with me. I can't let you take risks."
Ximen Zhiruo said anxiously.
She really treated Tang Xiaobao as her brother and a relative, and she was not pretending.
Tang Xiaobao could see it clearly, and he was somewhat moved, but he still refused. "Forget it, it's not that I look down on you, but if you go, you will only be a drag on me. Think about it, if I go alone, even if there's an ambush, it won't be easy for them to kill me, but I can definitely escape unscathed. If you go, it won't be the same. I'll have to distract myself to protect you. Besides, your Ximen family is busy right now. If I'm not mistaken, many families in Ghost Town want to cooperate with you, right?"
"Brother, what you said makes sense, but——"
"No, but, a few ghosts are nothing to me. I'm not bragging, but in the entire First Heaven, there's only one person I'd be concerned about."
"Who is it?"
"The Nameless Emperor."
"Ah, Realm Master?"
"Yes, well, you go back first, I also want to go back and rest."
Tang Xiaobao stood up and said goodbye to Ximen Zhiruo.
"Then brother must be careful."
Ximen Zhiruo warned.
"Okay, let's go."
Tang Xiaobao touched her head and said with a smile.
Ximen Zhiruo blushed and fled away.
