Xie Zhou, who was already at the front, didn't expect to be discovered so quickly, so he ran away in a flash.
Those who couldn't keep up with Xie Zhou could only curse themselves for not noticing sooner.
Xie Zhou had already slipped away to the vicinity of an inn, intending to find an opportunity to rest properly there.
Unexpectedly, several little demons appeared in the inn, from which Xie Zhou could tell that these demons probably didn't have many years of cultivation.
However, these little demons were quite arrogant. They showed no fear or leniency towards Xie Zhou. On the contrary, they bullied normal people on the side. The normal people on the side had been suppressed and were cowering in fear of the monsters.
Xie Zhou's mood instantly soured upon seeing this.
After all, Xie Zhou never expected that demons would be in power now! Demons could even bully people.
Xie Zhou was in a bad mood for a moment, so he turned around and took out his demon-capturing magic weapon, holding it high.
The demon-capturing magic weapon immediately emitted a golden light and then absorbed all the little demons.
Xie Zhou's mood improved considerably after he subdued all the little demons. Although they had been subdued, they were still chattering and making noise, clearly wanting a bit of life.
How could Xie Zhou let these monsters escape from his grasp? He exerted all his strength to control his magic and prevent the monsters from escaping, thus rescuing the people nearby.
The people who were rescued immediately ran away, showing no gratitude whatsoever for Xie Zhou's help.
At this very moment, Luo Fantian was also active in this area. His mission in coming here was to find the little ghost.
However, Luo Fantian didn't receive it; on the contrary, he bumped right into Xie Zhou.
Luo Fantian never expected that his fate with Xie Zhou would be so coincidental.
But since things had come to this, Luo Fantian couldn't say much. Since the brat hadn't received it, he might as well take Xie Zhou away.
Xie Zhou was unable to refute Luo Fantian for the time being, and since he could not subdue Luo Fantian by force, he had no choice but to be taken to the Ghost Pavilion by Luo Fantian.
The leader of the ghosts inside immediately had golden eyes when he saw Xie Zhou, because all the ghosts Xie Zhou had previously captured had come to the Ghost Pavilion.
General Gui and Xie Zhou also had a history, so they naturally knew each other.
Now, General Ghost sees Xie Zhou being dragged in by Luo Fantian, and it seems there's some friction between the two.
General Ghost naturally sided with Xie Zhou without hesitation, and his gaze toward Luo Fantian became somewhat strange.
Xie Zhou was surprised to be taken to the Ghost Pavilion by Luo Fantian, and couldn't help but snort coldly.
After all, others might not know about Ghost Pavilion, but Xie Zhou knew it well. He had been to Ghost Pavilion several times before and was returning now. He also had some connection with General Ghost.
Xie Zhou thought to himself that the friendship between General Ghost and Luo Fantian was definitely not as strong as that between himself and General Ghost. Although he was still being suppressed by Luo Fantian on the surface, he had actually won.
As expected, upon seeing Xie Zhou and Luo Fantian, General Ghost immediately grabbed Xie Zhou, clearly intending to protect him. Luo Fantian was surprised that Xie Zhou would be protected by General Ghost.
It should be noted that General Ghost is a figure of absolute authority in the Ghost Pavilion. The fact that Xie Zhou is now being protected by General Ghost shows that Xie Zhou's status in the Ghost Pavilion is extraordinary.
Luo Fantian was surprised to find that the little devil he had casually grabbed was such a powerful figure. However, even so, it could not shake the sense of justice in Luo Fantian's heart.
"Why are the ghosts here protecting you? What's your relationship with the general ghost here? Tell me quickly! For a moment, I couldn't figure out your relationship with the ghosts here, and I stupidly brought you here!!"
After Luo Fantian finished speaking, his expression changed drastically.
Upon hearing these words, Xie Zhou smiled slightly, clearly not taking them seriously. It was obvious that Luo Fantian was innocent of such ignorance.
"Whether you know it or not, you brought me here! For a moment, I don't know what to say. Should I praise you for being smart or call you stupid?!"
Xie Zhou had been detained by Luo Fantian all the way to the Ghost Pavilion, so his tone was naturally not good. Luo Fantian frowned slightly, clearly in a bad mood as well. After all, he thought he had captured a little ghost, but after being brought to the Ghost Pavilion, he was not even as high-ranking as the little ghost.
Anyone would find it hard to accept such a sudden drop in status and position, and Luo Fantian felt the same way.
On the other side, Xie Zhou relaxed slightly, relieved that General Ghost was protecting him here, otherwise he didn't know what Luo Fantian would have done to him.
Moreover, judging from Luo Fantian's righteous appearance, he must have been mistaken for a little devil. Xie Zhou found it ridiculous that he was being mistaken for a little devil when he was out collecting demons.
But now that things had come to this, there was no turning back, and Xie Zhou's expression turned rather grim.
Then, it was clear that Xie Zhou's hands were making a spell. Luo Fantian frowned and tried to see clearly, but he couldn't make out Xie Zhou's hand speed no matter what.
Xie Zhou's hand speed was extremely fast. After immediately summoning a mark, a faint white shadow appeared in front of him.
This white figure looked ethereal and intangible; you couldn't even touch it when you reached out. What else could it be but a little devil! Luo Fantian thought to himself, greatly surprised, and his expression changed drastically.
Xie Zhou then became more relaxed and didn't take it seriously. After all, this little devil was summoned by Xie Zhou and obeyed his orders, so it would certainly not do anything immoral.
Luo Fantian stared wide-eyed. He hadn't expected that anyone could summon a ghost. After all, not everyone could learn such a summoning technique, and this kind of ghost-summoning method could be classified as unorthodox or heretical.
"I am a little imp from the deep mountains around here! I have been summoned here by my master, so I can obey his orders at any time! If my master tells me to go east, I will never go west! My master's word is law!"
This little devil was quite clever; he immediately expressed his loyalty to Xie Zhou, clearly not wanting Xie Zhou to abandon him.
Xie Zhou also took a liking to this little devil, who was very sensible, so he nodded and did not return the little devil.
This left Luo Fantian, who was standing to the side, utterly shocked.
Luo Fantian was quite surprised to find Xie Zhou so powerful, as he had never seen anything like it from anyone else before.
