Chapter 42: Ghost King Sect

  Zhang Yu Fan rode the seven-colored Oriole back from the Ten Million Great Mountain, and his destination was still the Huqi Mountain Gui Wang Zong. He wanted to fulfill his promise with Qing Long, following the direction that Jin Ping Er and Cang Song Dao Ren had gone, plus he had been to Huqi Mountain with Xiao Bai once before, so he felt that the main altar of Gui Wang Zong should be right under his feet.

  The swallows fell on the mountain body, and a seven-colored oriole flapped its wings and went far away.

  Just as Zhang Yufan was searching for the entrance to Gui Wang Zong's cave, a series of wild beast roars suddenly came from behind him, sounding painful and helpless. Looking around, he saw that in the distant mountain valley, crowds were stirring, with three huge carts, wrapped in gray canvas, making it unclear what was inside.

  "The King of Demons has indeed put in a lot of effort, transporting these three giant beasts from thousands of miles away, consuming countless manpower and resources!" Zhang Yu Fan knew that the flatbed cart was carrying the three ancient strange beasts without looking. He didn't expect that this time, the Ghost King Sect would be blessed with misfortune and unexpectedly obtain another branch of strange beasts. Now it seems that only the evil beast Taotie by the Beast King's side remains. The Beast King reckoned that his own days were numbered, and Taotie would also be unable to escape disaster. Perhaps in just a few short days, the Four Spirits Blood Array could be completed.

  As he was thinking this way, someone suddenly shouted behind him: "Who is it that dares to trespass on Fox Qi Mountain!"

  Zhang Yu Fan was startled, but quickly calmed down, thinking it must be the Ghost King Sect's mountain patrol guard. He turned around to face the person head-on, and the person in front of him was a short, stout, and fat Ghost King Sect disciple. As soon as he saw Zhang Yu Fan, his eyes were cold and he thought he was Ghost Li, so he hastily knelt down on the ground and said: "I didn't know it was the Deputy Sect Master here, please forgive my disrespect!"

  Zhang Yufan was slightly caught off guard, but quickly came to his senses. He thought that using Gu Ye's identity would still be useful here, especially when going to see Bi Yao, and coldly said: "I'm not some petty person, speak up!"

  That person stood up with some trepidation, not daring to look directly at Gui Li, let alone try to determine whether he was the real deal or not.

  Zhang Yu Fan asked again: "Has the Ghost King Sect Master returned to the main altar?"

  "That person said without hesitation: 'Report to the Deputy Sect Master, the Ghost King Sect Master is still at the back of the team and will only return to the Main Altar tomorrow afternoon. Currently, there are only the Vermilion Bird Holy Envoy and Mr. Gui in the Main Altar!'"

  Zhang Yufan let out a long sigh, and for some reason, whenever he mentioned the two words "Ghost King", he felt an unprecedented sense of oppression. He waved his hand to signal the person to leave, then followed the crowd slowly to find the entrance of the Ghost King Sect.

  At this time, due to the overall relocation of Guiwangzong, all the stone gate passages on the mountain body were already open, and a magnificent mountain cave appeared in front of him. Huqi Mountain had returned to its former vitality.

  At the entrance of the mountain mansion, a person wrapped in black cloth stood quietly at the cave entrance, gazing out at three flatcars slowly approaching from the foot of the mountain, it was Mr. Right Time Ghost.

  This person is very deep, Zhang Yu Fan got close to him but didn't dare look at him more than once, because Gui Li was never one to stare at others. He didn't say a word and just brushed past Mr. Gui like that. Mr. Gui's behavior was strange as usual, so he naturally didn't greet him either.

  As they walked further in, near the last stone gate, a woman dressed all in black with her face covered by a black veil was standing guard at the entrance. When she saw Zhang Yufan, her body shook slightly and she asked: "Do you come back often?"

  Zhang Yufan nodded slightly, but didn't say a word, and walked steadily towards the stone room where Biyao was lying, opened the door and slowly went in.

  After entering the stone room, he let out a sigh of relief. It seemed that this was the only place in the entire Gui Wang Sect where he felt safe. The warmest thing was the stunning beauty lying on the ice bed. He walked slowly over, his footsteps very light, and slowly knelt down beside the stone bed. He grasped Bi Yao's hand, gazing at her face as if mesmerized, his heart racing with a thousand thoughts.

  Please forgive my sudden visit!

  Has he been looking at you like this for ten years?!

  He shouldn't have cried in front of you before, right?!

  Do you know? He has been suffering for you all these years and his body and mind are exhausted. He feels that the hope of living is you!

  Maybe you will hate him!

  But no one can predict what will happen in emotional matters!

  If he fell in love with someone else at the same time, would you blame him?

  Or you can't make up your mind either!

  Biyao, wake up quickly!

  Although you sleep, you have determined the fate of many people.

  Zhang Yu Fan said, slowly bowing his head, his forehead touching the cold stone bed, suddenly a clear picture appeared in the chaotic sea, it was actually the outline of the Heavenly Book, slowly his whole body's blood flow reversed, for the first time he clearly felt every drop of blood flowing, the body's great river was originally so turbulent and wonderful, his strength was slowly surging, his true power seemed to be able to increase a bit.

  The stone room door was suddenly opened, and Zhang Yufan clearly heard the footsteps of the person who came in stop behind him. At this time, the only one who could come was You Ji. Zhang Yufan hurriedly calmed down the blood that was surging inside his body and slowly said: "Is it you?"

  "You are who?" Yu Ji looked at Bi Yao's clear and beautiful face and asked.

  Zhang Yufan was greatly shocked, not expecting Youji to have already recognized that he wasn't Gui Li. Thinking carefully, although his appearance might be the same, a person's character and demeanor couldn't be imitated. With this thought, he also didn't see the need to continue hiding, saying: "My name is Zhang Yufan, I'm not Gui Li, I come from another world, do you believe me?"

  Yuè Jiě's face was hidden behind a black veil, making it impossible to discern her expression. All that could be heard was her saying: "You're quite frank, where did you come from and what business do you have with me? Why have you come to Bì Yáo's bedchamber?"

  Zhang Yufan didn't turn around, nor did he make any movement, looking at the pale face in front of him, saying: "I came for Biyao, I don't want to let him sink deeper into this, I know what Jiegui wants and what you all want to know!"

  "You know everything?"

  "How can we save Bi Yao?"

  "You can?" Yuji's voice was somewhat excited.

  Zhang Yu Fan didn't hide anything and said: "I won't go, but I know someone who can!"

  "Who?"

  Zhang Yu Fan said, "This person cannot be told to you now, because her current cultivation is not enough to undertake such a huge task. If she fails again, Bi Yao's soul will be disturbed repeatedly and it's easy for her to become an idiot!"

  "You're talking nonsense, what are you saying that Biyu will become an idiot? You're simply a madman! Get out of here right now!"

  Zhang Yu Fang slowly opened his hand and said: "You didn't believe me when you came, but in this world, only I know who can save Bi Yao!"

  "Get out!"

  Zhang Yufan didn't say a word, slowly walking past Youji's side. Just as he was about to close the stone gate, he looked at Youji and said: "Can I also call you Aunt You? I'm not lying, just please don't tell Guwang about my affairs. After he returns to the main altar, I'll personally reveal my identity!"

  "Young lady stood there stupidly for a long time before finally saying: 'I'll agree with you then!'"

  Zhang Yu Fan was overjoyed and said: "There are some things I don't know whether I should say or not!"

  "Don't say what shouldn't be said, I only care about Bi Yao!"

  Zhang Yuwen slightly furrowed his brow and said: "Do you know someone named Wan Jianyi?"

  Yuè Jiě's body trembled twice, a strong woman suddenly became so fragile, and she cried out: "What did you say?"

  "Ten thousand swords as one!"

  "How did you know this name?"

  Zhang Yu Fan was taken aback, and it turned out that You Ji had thought of the person who faced the Black Water Xuan Snake on the shore of Wu Qing Hai, and it was actually Wan Jian Yi. "I heard he died outside Qing Yun Huan Yue Cave three days ago!"

  "You are who, to come here and speak such nonsense? Wan Jianyi has been gone for thirty years, how can he still die three days ago?"

  Zhang Yu Fan sighed, and as expected, the outcome was already anticipated. He said: "What is impossible in this world? If Dao Xuan Nian didn't consider their past relationship and spare his life..." His words suddenly stopped, replaced by the sound of the stone gate slowly closing.

  Yu Ji stood there in a daze, and after a long time, she said: "Is the person he mentioned really still alive? Then who killed him?" He suddenly let out a bitter laugh, looking at Bi Yao lying on the ice bed: "Yao'er, isn't Yu Ji very foolish? What's the difference between his death now and thirty years ago? Isn't it all just eternal separation?"

  Zhang Yu Fan walked alone in the corridor, with the guidance of "Zhān Xiān", he was naturally very familiar with the terrain here. What he needed most now was a suitable outfit, and Gui Li's room was naturally his best choice.

  Although the temple was deserted, Yu Ji had already stationed many guards in the corridor. However, Zhang Yufan's face made everyone dare not look straight at him, they only respectfully shouted "Deputy Sect Master" and stood there stiffly without moving.

  All the way down, Zhang Yufan seemed to have gotten used to this high and mighty feeling, and the aura on his body was even more like that of a fierce ghost.

  He stopped at the nearest place to the Biyao Stone Room, which was Gui Li's room. He opened the door and found it unexpectedly simple inside: a bed, a table, a chair... In his room, almost everything was a single item, and there were no decorations on the stone walls either. Zhang Yufan had to use a lot of effort to find some clothes in a small cabinet the size of a palm, although they were a bit old but very clean, and except for black, all colors were black, which might be Gui Li's color.

  Zhang Yufan likes lighter colors, just like Zhang Xiaofan on the top of Dazhu Peak. He likes pure and lively colors, but for now, he can only wear these clothes. Hopefully, Gui Li will not mind them when she comes back.

  Suddenly there was a commotion outside the door.

  "Miss, although you are an honored guest of our sect, this is the deputy sect leader's room and you cannot enter!"

  "It's a spooky room, which makes me want to go in and take a look!"

  The stone room door had been opened by someone.
