Hongye City, Central District.

Of the three areas of Hongye City, the largest area is the fringe area, followed by the central district.

The nobles living in luxury need large plots of land to build their residences and various recreational facilities.

Now, in the most luxurious manor in the central district of ​​Hongye City, there are two distinguished guests.

After the two priests came to Hongye City, they rested for one night before going to meet the president of Hongye City Priests Association and the city owner of Hongye City. As for the others… of course they were left behind.

They don’t want to be haunted by warriors who want their healing.

Liao Muye offered to meet these two distinguished guests, but of course he was rejected.

Outside the manor, one of the priest’s butlers looked down at Liao Muye with a bit of disdain in his eyes: “My lord is not something you can see because you want to.”

Liao Muye felt a fire in his heart.

These two priests had died for a long time since his death, but now they even look down at him!

Back then, Xie Yunnan not only attacked those big families, but also erased all kinds of special treatment of priests. At that time, these priests did not dare make such a fuss!

They even had to heal those warriors who had contributed, even if it was a poor low-level warrior.

Unfortunately, the status of a priest is still very high now… Liao Muye said: “I know some information about the Ghost King, and want to tell the two priests.”

Originally, Liao Muye wanted to meet the two priests and talk about this, but now… he could only say it in advance.

The butler’s expression became serious: “I’ll go report inside!”

He turned around and went in, and came out after a while, and then said to Liao Muye, “Lord priests want to see you.”

Liao Muye followed the butler inside the mansion to the two priests.

Priests live much longer than warriors. The lifespan of warriors is actually similar to that of ordinary people, generally less than 100 years old, but priests are different. In the past, with sacrifices and rituals, they could live to 200 or 300 years old.

The two priests in front of Liao Muye looked middle-aged, but in fact…one of them was in their 90’s and the other was over 100 years old.

After being pampered for dozens of years, the two priests had wrinkles on their faces, but their skin was still smooth. When Liao Muye entered, the two were playing chess.

When Liao Muye came in, they didn’t stop, they still played chess slowly, leaving Liao Muye aside.

After playing for a while, the priest who was a few years younger threw the chess piece on the chessboard and said, “I admit defeat.”

“You should have already admitted defeat.” The other said.

After they finished playing chess, someone came to collect the chessboard, and someone else brought two basins for them to wash their hands.

There are many people around them, looking after them diligently.

This is Liao Muye’s dream life, and being ignored made him even more dissatisfied.

Fortunately, these two priests finally finished their work.

After dismissing those servants, the younger priest said: “You have news about the Ghost King? Tell me about it.”

Liao Muye took a deep breath and said what he had thought up in advance: “Your Holiness, the Ghost King has been hiding in Hongye Forest for most of these years, and some of his subordinates here in Hongye City are responsible for purchasing all kinds of materials and products for him. We inadvertently identified the identity of one of his subordinates, and learned some things about the Ghost King.”

“Oh?” The younger priest lifted his eyelids lightly.

Liao Muye said again: “Just a month ago, we found out that the Ghost King and the others have changed… At that time, it seemed that something suddenly appeared in Hongye Forest, triggering many exotic beasts to go wild, I don’t know what this thing was. But it was snatched by the Ghost King. After that, the Ghost King left Hongye Forest, bought a plantation, and has lived in the fringes of Hongye City.”

“He is in the fringe of Hongye City?” The younger priest’s pupils shrank.

“Yes, at that time his people wanted to buy a plantation. In order to get his news, I sold a plantation from our Liao’s family to him, and installed some cameras and monitoring equipment in that plantation. I got the news through the monitoring equipment.”

“What else do you know?”

“We captured the Ghost King’s true face.” Liao Muye took out a video shot by someone and showed it to the two in front of him.

The person in the video has scars all over his face, making people unable to see his original appearance at all, but his figure is still clear.

It was also a coincidence that the two priests present had met the Ghost King.

If they just saw this video, they wouldn’t think too much, and they wouldn’t necessarily associate the person in the video with the Ghost King.

But now someone told them that this was the Ghost King… their expressions became solemn.

The figure of this man is indeed exactly the same as that of the Ghost King.

“Tell us in detail!” The two priests looked at each other, and the older one looked at Liao Muye.

Liao Muye shared some things he investigated, and some things from the past life. Of course, he didn’t say too much.

He shouldn’t know too much.

“By the way, when they were chatting, they seemed to mention… that the thing that made the spirit beasts in Hongye Forest riot was obtained from a corpse.” Liao Muye said what he most wanted to say when he came over this time.

As far as he knew, there was a treasure on the dead High Priest.

He couldn’t believe that these two would not be moved!

And as long as these two are moved…they will go to deal with the Ghost King.

The Ghost King is about to die. In this group of people from Holy City are 2 mid-level priests, 2 ninth-level warriors… The Ghost King can’t escape!

Sure enough, just after Liao Muye finished speaking, the eyes of the two priests changed.

In this world, even senior priests cannot guarantee that their children will become priests. It can only be said that their descendants are more likely to awaken as priests than others.

But the High Priest is different. The position of High Priest is passed down from generation to generation.

When the previous High Priest dies, his children can inherit the power of the High Priest and become High Priests, regardless of whether they were priests before.

In the past, people thought that this was the power of the beast god, but now… everyone guessed that the High Priest had a treasure that could be passed on.

It’s a pity that recent High Priests have gotten worse. Each generation is worse than the other, and dies earlier and earlier.

They don’t have the talent to become priests, but they still hold the treasures of priests, so naturally there will be problems.

But what if… a person who is already a priest gets that treasure?

In history, the original and most powerful High Priest lived to 500 years old! Can they do the same?

The two senior priests in the Holy City are not too young, and their lifespans are coming to an end.

But they didn’t want to die, so they naturally coveted the treasure possessed by the High Priest.

Especially this last High Priest. The previous one only lived to be in his 40’s.

The last High Priest succeeded to the priesthood when he was still a teenager, and his health has not been good since then.

Some time ago, there was an accident in the Holy City. In fact, it was two senior priests who attacked the High Priest.

After the High Priest disappeared, the two senior priests were on guard against each other, and at the same time they had to resist the counterattack of the forces under the High Priest… they couldn’t make a move for a while.

Not long ago, they came up with nothing!

And these two mid-level priests, coincidentally, happened to be the students of the two senior priests.

Their most important task this time was to find the corpse of the High Priest. Secondarily, if possible, it would be best to kill the Ghost King.

They were reluctant to come. The Ghost King was strong, and they were afraid of danger.

And the corpse of the High Priest… The High Priest had no power to fight back in the face of the rebellion, so no one thought the treasure should be on the High Priest.

But now, according to Liao Muye… 

The two priests looked at each other suddenly, with alertness in their eyes, and even more rejection.

For a moment, the same thought arose in their hearts — I’m bound to get the treasure left by the High Priest!

That’s something that can make an underage child who doesn’t have the talent to be a priest become a senior priest. If they can get it… they can definitely become the High Priest directly.

At this moment… Neither of them intended to hand over the treasure to their teacher after they obtained it, and they both wanted to swallow the treasure for themselves.

It’s just that now that thing is in the hands of the Ghost King… This needs to be discussed in the long run.

These two people are not too young, and will not lose their emotions when encountering shocking things.

But in the end… something still leaked.

Liao Muye noticed this and felt a little remorse.

After his rebirth, he was afraid that the development trajectory of the world would change, so he did not go salvage the body of the High Priest.

Now it seems… the treasure possessed by the High Priest is probably very precious!

The Ghost King must have known this before snatching the High Priest’s body in advance!

——

The Ghost King still didn’t know that, in the eyes of some people, he was stamped as the one who robbed the High Priest’s body and got the treasure.

He’s in an awkward spot now.

“Master, there are many empty fields in the plantation, why don’t you plant them?”

“Master, there is something wrong with the way you store sweet potatoes!”

“Master, the corn in the fields is ready to be harvested, why don’t you hire someone to harvest it?!”



Xie Yunnan couldn’t help sighing after seeing the plantation.

After his master bought the plantation, he really didn’t care!

The plantation is a mess right now!

“Cough…then what should we do?” the Ghost King asked.

Xie Yunnan said: “Master, you can use the sweet potatoes in the warehouse as wages, and hire people to farm and harvest crops… You can also find an experienced person to help you manage the plantation.”

“Okay!” The Ghost King agreed.

Xie Yunnan actually didn’t know how to take care of the plantation. After he had made an idea, he said to the Ghost King: “Master, let me treat you!”

“You just became a priest, don’t worry.” The Ghost King said. His son is a low-level priest who has just started, how can he treat him? Don’t waste time!

“Master, let me try it! It’s just that I can learn how to use divine power.” Xie Yunnan hoped to repay his master and was very persistent.

After hearing what Xie Yunnan said, the Ghost King agreed.

It is also possible for his son to use him to practice.

Xie Yunnan didn’t know how to treat people’s wounds at all, but one thing is certain, that is, divine power can help people heal.

He input the divine power he cultivated into the Ghost King’s body.

The warm feeling slowly pervaded. The Ghost King felt like he was sinking into a comfortable basin, but unfortunately… the feeling was too short-lived.

It was like receiving a fire on a cold night. It was warm, but the fire came from a match, and was gone in an instant.

And his injury is probably healed… a little bit?

That can be ignored, but priests need to rest after treating people.

“Master, how do you feel?” Xie Yunnan asked.

“I feel good! You must be very tired, right? Go and have a good rest.” Ghost King said.

Xie Yunnan was not tired at all. He also knew that he must not have healed his master’s injury. He immediately said, “Master, I will treat you later.”

The Ghost King wanted to laugh when he heard this.

His son should have used up all his divine power this time. Next, the child must rest at least one day and one night before continuing to treat him!

The Ghost King didn’t take Xie Yunnan’s words seriously, but Xie Yunnan was sincere.

He returned to the house where he lived with Duan Changqing, continued to practice, and within half an hour, his divine power was fully restored, and there was even a little more.

So he ran to the Ghost King and helped treat the Ghost King again.

Ghost King: “!!!” Is his son a genius? How did he regain his divine power so quickly?

Or, did his son not use up his divine power before?

Before the Ghost King had time to say anything, Xie Yunnan went to practice again.

After half an hour… he came to treat the Ghost King again.

Then he went to practice again, and after half an hour, he came to treat the Ghost King again.

Ghost King: “…” He felt that he was an iceberg, and then a person suddenly appeared, throwing a small match on the iceberg every half hour.

A small corner of the iceberg actually melted!

If his son insisted on treating him every half hour, in a year… he might be completely healed?!

Is this even possible?

High Priest and senior-level or senior priest is a bit confusing when translating. High Priest is a position, think the pope. Senior-level or high-level priest is based on strength.
