The Ghost King looked around the room, straightened the chair that fell to the ground and sat down, and then said, “Your aunt told you about me?”
Lu Xiaoran finally came to his senses at this time. Standing up, he closed the window that had just been opened, and drew the curtains closed. Then he looked at the Ghost King coldly. “Are you really my uncle?”
As for his companion beast, it moved to the Ghost King’s side, sniffing the Ghost King suspiciously.
The Ghost King didn’t beat around the bush, and lifted the disguise on his face.
Lu Xiaoran took a deep breath: “Un…Uncle.”
“What, don’t know me?” the Ghost King asked.
“No, it’s just you, Uncle… I didn’t expect that even after not seeing you for so many years, you look as good as you were back then.” Lu Xiaoran’s expression was still indifferent.
He feels stupid!
If it wasn’t for the fact that he has been accustomed to maintaining a cold face over the years, his expression would have collapsed at this moment.
After not seeing him for many years, why does he think his uncle is more handsome? No, he’s no longer handsome, but beautiful.
But seeing this face, he is certain that this is his uncle.
He will not forget the person who has made fun of him for so many years and filmed everything.
He’s still a little scared…
The thought that his uncle is now the Ghost King is frightening…
The husky, who was making a lot of trouble just now, lowered its head, tucked its tail, and got under the bed. Unfortunately, the bed was too low to the ground, so the husky’s head barely fit under the bed.
The Ghost King couldn’t help laughing: “Hahahahaha!”
Lu Xiaoran looked at the Ghost King expressionlessly.
The Ghost King finally laughed enough and said to Lu Xiaoran: “You contact your aunt and tell her that our child is still alive, called Xie Yunnan… The matter of our child being with me was discovered, and I’m afraid it will be difficult to go back. You tell her to be careful in the future.”
For the sake of safety, he never contacted his wife all these years.
His wife wouldn’t contact him either.
But this time, he still wanted Lu Xiaoran to help spread the word.
Lu Xiaoran was shocked.
The Ghost King said again: “Also, be careful next time!”
The night he discovered that his identity was exposed, he arranged for someone to contact the friends he had known for so many years, as well as his cultivated subordinates.
He intends to make a big move before he dies.
Although he doesn’t have to die now… but there is no turning back when the bow is drawn, and Hongye City will inevitably be in chaos.
The Ghost King thought for a while, and then told Lu Xiaoran to pay more attention to Liao Muye.
He originally wanted to find Yan Yuge and Liao Muye, but both of them belonged to big families in the central district. Even if he had the ability, it would be difficult to spy on them quietly.
And it’s getting late, it’s time to go back.
Before the Ghost King left, he found a mirror to reapply his disguise.
As a result… he was a little confused upon seeing the person in the mirror.
He was with his son every day these days, and never tore off the disguise.
Although doing this will make his skin break out or something, he is a big man and doesn’t care about such things.
But…
The reflection in the mirror didn’t have acne, instead… His lips are red, his teeth are white, and his skin is rosy and shiny.
Why does he feel that he looks a lot younger?
Is it because he is in a good mood after finding his son, so he looks younger?
Full of doubts, the Ghost King left after putting on his disguise.

Last night Xie Yunnan and Duan Changqing talked for a while, but after Duan Changqing fell asleep, he insisted on practicing.
He really, really wants to get stronger!
The next morning, when the sun shone in, Xie Yunnan opened his eyes.
He and Duan Changqing lived in their own bedroom last night. On a two-meter wide bed, Duan Changqing lay quietly, his slightly trembling eyelashes made him look lovable.
“Are you awake?” Xie Yunnan asked – this man’s eyes moved.
Xia Qing suspiciously grabbed the mercenary out of the basement and woke him up. “What can you do?” Don’t know if this guy can farm.
The mercenary didn’t hesitate: “I can do anything! Don’t kill me!”
At this moment, Duan Changqing came in from outside and said, “Let him pick manure and fertilize the fields.”
The mercenary froze.
He is a dignified intermediate warrior? Let him pick shit?
It makes no sense!
Duan Changqing asked him again at this time: “Are you willing?”
“I’m willing.” The mercenary gritted his teeth.
He will pretend to agree, and then he could wait for the opportunity to escape. When he escapes, he must kill Duan Changqing…
As soon as this person thought of this, he felt a severe pain in his head, as if he was about to die. Not only that, he also rushed out uncontrollably and started picking dung on his own initiative.
Mercenary: “…”
What’s the matter with him? What the hell is he doing?
Why is he out of control?
Even if he had even the slightest thought of wanting to hurt Xie Yunnan and others, his head would be extremely painful, and he wanted to die on the spot!
It’s just that he is in such pain, and even goes to work unconsciously, not afraid of getting dirty or tired.
Duan Changqing watched him go to work and felt very satisfied.
Demon slaves cannot resist their master’s order, nor can they hurt their master. Plus he gave him an order before, so he can’t hurt any of them, and will protect them instead.
This person will work hard, and when they encounter danger in the future, he will rush to protect them as soon as possible.
Xie Yunnan was farming outside when he saw the mercenary who was captured yesterday, suddenly rush out and start picking dung.
What’s the matter with this man?
Xie Yunnan was a little wary, but seeing this man working so fast without stopping, he dropped his guard.
That person continued working even after they finished their work.
Is he crazy?!
——
“Is that person crazy?” Yan Yuge spent a lot of money to find someone to kidnap Xie Yunnan to teach him a lesson, but today the person suddenly went to the fields and worked for him?!
Is he mentally ill?
Yan Yuge didn’t know the true identity of the Ghost King. He only knew the identity of the Ghost King in disguise – an intermediate warrior who came to Hongye City from elsewhere.
So he didn’t take Xie Yunnan seriously at all, and paid an intermediate warrior to be safe.
As a result… he failed?!
On the other side, the two middle-level priests of Hongye City were also full of doubts.
What the hell happened to that mercenary?
Meng Yan took Shi Haiyuan to look for the Ghost King, but he returned with nothing… But he continued to pay attention to the Ghost King.
Then he found out that the Ghost King and the others didn’t run away and were still living in the plantation. Not only that, but the person who was looking for trouble even started to work for the Ghost King.
The Ghost King is really unfathomable!
“Don’t know what happened to that mercenary.” Meng Yan said.
Shi Haiyuan struggled for a while, and finally said: “He must have been bewitched by the Ghost King.”
Meng Yan frowned: “The Ghost King’s innate skills can confuse others?”
Shi Haiyuan touched his beard: “More or less.”
On the other side, the other mid-level priest, Jiao Qinyun, also got the news.
The news he got didn’t stop there.
He sent people to investigate these days, and found that the person in the plantation should be the Ghost King, but there are very few people around the Ghost King.
The Ghost King is like a ghost. According to common sense, after Meng Yan and the others have been there, he should leave Hongye City. But he didn’t.
Is this… is it a trap?
To say it’s a trap, it doesn’t look like it. After all, there are not enough of them there.
For these reasons, Jiao Qinyun never dared to do anything yet, but he still wanted to get the treasure left by the High Priest.
After thinking about it, Jiao Qinyun decided to give it a try.
There are rumors that the Ghost King’s body has long been unable to hold up, and he may have been forced to stay in the fringe area.
If he can get the treasure, he can become the High Priest…
Jiao Qinyun turned around to find Meng Yan. If they join forces to fight the Ghost King together… two intermediate priests, two ninth-level warriors, and many eighth-level warriors… Can the Ghost King still resist?
In the end, Meng Yan still agreed.
If it was just a Ghost King, they would not necessarily attack, but the treasure left by the High Priest… the temptation was too great!
The two sides negotiated and decided to act the next day.
——
At the same time, the mercenary worked until midnight when he finally finished working and went back.
He didn’t know why he was like this. He was tired and hungry, but… he could only think about work.
“You can control people?” The Ghost King asked Duan Changqing in a low voice after his son went to wash up.
“En.” Duan Changqing said.
“Your talent and skills are too strong… With you by the High Priest’s side, why did the High Priest have an accident?”
Duan Changqing also wanted to know why the High Priest had an accident!
He thought about it for a while, and then asked, “When are you going to act?”
If nothing else, this person wants to rebel.
He should have been preparing for a long time.
