Chapter 2069: Xiangnan Ghost King
Ghost King?
Who on earth is that?
Xiao Zheng and Long Qie exchanged a glance, and both couldn’t help but frown.
Because in all the information they had gathered about the Ghost Raising Family, there was no mention of the Ghost King, not even the name.
Xiao Zheng couldn’t help but ask, "This Ghost King you’re talking about, is he the real leader of your Ghost Raising Family?"
Upon hearing this, Yao Da nodded and said, "To say he’s our leader is actually a bit incorrect. He’s not just a simple leader; he’s more like our guardian deity!"
"He’s the one who promoted the Ghost Control Technique, and also the one who organized the Ghost Raising Family!"
After hearing this, Xiao Zheng and Long Qie couldn’t help but frown again.
Neither of them had anticipated that the Ghost King was actually the founder of the Ghost Raising Family.
If Yao Da wasn’t lying, then the Ghost King’s power must be terrifying. After all, the Ghost Raising Family has nearly a century of history, and the Ghost King being alive till now already confirmed his immense power.
Thinking of this, Long Qie couldn’t help but ask, "Since you say the Ghost King is your Ghost Raising Family’s guardian deity, you surely know where to find him, right?"
"Well...I actually don’t know..." Yao Da said awkwardly, "Not just me, there aren’t many people in the entire Ghost Raising Family who know the Ghost King’s whereabouts."
"He vanished without a trace two years ago."
"Did he die?" Xiao Zheng’s mind moved slightly, asking.
Upon hearing this, Yao Da shook his head vigorously: "How could that be? The Ghost King is powerful; how could he die? He just went into seclusion somewhere and will surely come back someday!"
Hearing this, Long Qie smirked coldly and said, "Are you eagerly hoping for his appearance so he can rescue you from us?"
Yao Da’s expression was embarrassed, as if his secret intentions had been guessed, leaving him momentarily speechless.
Xiao Zheng smiled and said, "Let’s not talk about this Ghost King anymore, since we don’t know if he’s alive or dead. If he’s still alive, let him come find me."
Feeling his dominance, a look of fear appeared in Yao Da’s eyes.
Xiao Zheng then reached into his coat and took out an item, asking, "By the way, have you seen this thing before?"
At this time, he was holding the Golden Bone found on Lin Er and others.
Yao Da looked carefully at the Golden Bone, then showed a hint of doubt, "This thing, yes, I have seen it, and there’s one hidden in this building."
What!
In this three-story villa, there’s actually a Golden Bone hidden!
Upon hearing this news, Xiao Zheng and Long Qie both looked shocked!
Xiao Zheng suppressed the excitement in his heart and asked, "Where exactly have you stored the Golden Bone? Besides the one in my hand and yours, have you seen any other Golden Bones?"
"Yes!" Yao Da replied without hesitation.
His response once again shocked both of them.
Xiao Zheng could no longer contain his excitement and quickly asked, "Where have you seen those Golden Bones? Tell me quickly!"
Feeling his excitement, Yao Da couldn’t help but be filled with curiosity.
Yet Yao Da ultimately didn’t ask about the function of the Golden Bone and instead replied, "The thing you call the Golden Bone, I once saw in the hands of people from the Wu Family."
"I can be sure that the Wu Family has at least three of these bones!"
Upon hearing this number, Xiao Zheng felt immensely satisfied.
If the Wu Family really has at least three Golden Bones, together with the one in his hand and the one hidden in the house, that makes at least five Golden Bones!
If all of them are integrated into his body, Xiao Zheng had a premonition that his realm would absolutely soar!
"Those contact details you just reported, can they help find people from the Wu Family?"
Xiao Zheng asked.
Upon hearing this, Yao Da nodded promptly and said, "Yes, I included contacts for people from the Wu Family in those mobile numbers I just gave."
Xiao Zheng could sense that he wasn’t lying.
Nodding in satisfaction, Xiao Zheng said, "You’re pretty cooperative, not trying to deceive me."
Upon hearing this, a flash of excitement appeared in Yao Da’s eyes, "Does that mean I, I can now just leave?"
"Of course, I told you a long time ago, as long as you cooperate with me, I absolutely won’t kill you." Xiao Zheng nodded, "Go now, and don’t let me see you again."
Yao Da felt as if he was dreaming, and having escaped death, his face couldn’t help but show immense joy. Without any hesitation, he turned and quickly tried to escape.
However, just as he turned around, a cold gleam flashed in his line of sight.
Soon afterward, Yao Da’s body fell into a pool of blood.
Long Qie, holding an axe, looked at his body and sneered, "Mr. Xiao may have promised not to kill you, but I didn’t. If you want to leave, you have to ask me first!"
If Yao Da were alive now, he’d definitely curse angrily.
However, having turned into a dead person, he couldn’t speak anymore.
"Mr. Xiao, everything is settled!"
Long Qie excitedly walked over to Xiao Zheng and said with a laugh.
Upon hearing this, Xiao Zheng responded with a faint smile, "You did well. It seems you’ve understood my intentions quite well. We really couldn’t release him; if he had gone to alert them, our plan to eliminate the Ghost Raising Family would’ve been ended."
"I thought the same as you, so I acted to kill him," Long Qie grinned.
"Alright, let’s stop talking so much. After all, the man is dead now." Xiao Zheng smiled, then turned his gaze to the three-story villa ahead, "Now, we can go in and reap the victory."
With that, he led the way into the villa.
The house was completely dark, and the atmosphere seemed a bit eerie.
However, under Xiao Zheng’s piercing eyes, nothing was hidden; he didn’t overlook even a single hair on the floor!
Finally, in a storeroom on the third floor, Xiao Zheng successfully found the Golden Bone that Yao Da mentioned!
The second Golden Bone is in hand!
