“I’ve come to find Master twice in a row, but I haven’t been able to find him. That’s rare.”


  Jiang Lan looked at the empty peak of the Ninth Summit and was slightly surprised.

  This time, he was looking for his master for something. Otherwise, he would have no issues with no finding his master.

  With him watching over the Ninth Summit, nothing would happen for the time being. After all, there were still the array formations.

  “…”


  Was his master thinking of the same thing?

  Jiang Lan didn’t know.

  However, not being able to ask his master was equivalent to not being able to make the higher-ups of Kunlun focus their attention on the Jade Pool. This meant that they were unable to deal with that wisp of black aura.

  “Looks like I have to go out and take a look.”


  Jiang Lan made his decision.

  “If I don’t discover any findings and I can’t find master, I’ll go to the Eighth Summit and ask him where my master has gone.”


  Actually, he was more familiar with the Fifth Summit’s Martial Aunt, but…


  She felt that dangerous to him. It was better to ask the Martial Uncle of the Eighth Summit first.

  With this thought in mind, Jiang Lan headed out of Kunlun to take a look around and catch some ice cicadas.

  There was no need to give any reason for going out.

  …


  …


  In the sky above Kunlun.

  In a place where the vast majority of immortals were unable to detect.

  At this moment, a black mist rolled over like clouds. In the middle of the black mist was a human face, as though he wanted to swallow Kunlun.

  It felt as if he was suppressing the entirety of the Kunlun Mountain.

  However, there were four people standing in front of the black mist. These four people stood there and directly obstructed the engulfing and enveloping black mist.

  They were evenly matched.

  The collision of power was not violent, but the surrounding space seemed to distort.

  “Ba Country’s ghost qi has been released. You really think highly of us Kunlun.”


  Liu Jing stood in front of the four of them and looked at the black mist. His voice was low.

  The sudden arrival of Ba Country surprised them. The actions of the other party could not be measured with common sense.

  They had thought that there would be a buffer period, but the other party had come too quickly.

  They had even come with their country’s fate, making it a life-and-death battle.

  When they discovered it, the four of them immediately arrived.

  They wanted to block the other party here.

  Liu Jing led the way. The Fifth, Eighth, and Ninth Summit’s summit leaders stood behind him.

  Mo Zhengdong had no choice but to come because the ghost qi of Ba Country would resonate with the aura of the Netherworld.

  His power was the most suitable to counter Ba Country’s ghost qi.

  If others came instead of him, it would cause the Ninth Summit to be affected instead.

  Otherwise, he would not have left the Ninth Summit.

  “Haha.” A burst of sinister laughter sounded from the black mist.

  “With the descent of the Ba Country’s fate, I thought that it would attract at least seven summit leaders. Unfortunately, only four have come. Kunlun really looks down on my Ba Country.”


  “What do you want to do?” Liu Jing asked directly.

  This was not a negotiation, but a battle with an enemy. Thus, Miao Yue took the side seat and was not the main person to talk this time.

  “What are we here for?” The voice in the ghost qi was smiling.

  “I don’t know.”


  Liu Jing frowned.

  “You Kunlun people should know that the people of Ba Country are pure and innocent. We don’t understand the cunning schemes of humans.” A helpless voice came from the ghost qi.

  “However, I don’t know when it began, but the great powers of the various wastelands all moved at the same time and started fighting with each other. We have no idea why they are all fighting. Do you all know? ”


  “That’s them. Shouldn’t you ask them about this?” Liu Jing said directly.

  “It’s too far. Besides, it’s better to ask you than them. Kunlun is dominated by humans. Humans have good brains and dirty hearts. So you must know what’s happening.” The face in the black mist revealed a smile.

  “Of course, you don’t have to say it but we will move and act if you don’t. Everyone has already acted. If our Ba Country doesn’t move, wouldn’t it make us appear ignorant and backward? Therefore, we’ve decided to fight it out with you all at Kunlun if you don’t tell us about what’s happening.”


  The four summit leaders: “…”


  It was really not suitable for them to fight against Ghostland Ba Country.

  There was nothing to fear when fighting demons, dragons, or humans.

  Because the other party would be scared.

  But Ghostland Ba Country was different. They were unafraid of death.

  Fighting with them just meant exhausting all their resources without end.

  But if the other party wanted to fight, they had nothing to fear either.

  “Is the Ba Country not afraid of being defeated and then wiped out by the dragons or the demons? After all, they might know what they are doing, but you do not know what they are doing.” Miao Yue said.

  “You must be afraid too. There’s no need to threaten me. As long as your Sect Master doesn’t come out, the nine of you won’t be able to directly crush us. Besides, two out of the nine of you can’t act.

  There will only be seven of you who will lead the entire Kunlun. Although it still appears that you guys have the upper hand, you would still have to pay the price. It is also unknown who would be the first to be eliminated. Kunlun is more hated than Ba Country.” The ghostly human face’s laughter was very sinister.

  Miao Yue smiled. She had to admit that Ba Country’s people were not so stupid.

  And their arrival today was planned well.

  They were here to threaten them.

  “It seems they have some ideas.” Miao Yue said.

  Liu Jing nodded slightly. He could also feel that Ba Country did not want to become a stepping stone.

  “You should have other thoughts, right?” Liu Jing asked.

  “Humans are too smart.” The ghostly face cackled.

  “Ba Country is strong, but Kunlun is not weak either. Therefore, there is no need for us to fight. We want to give both ourselves and you a chance.

  During this period of time, our otherworldly soldiers will pass through Kunlun. If your people are able to discover and leave our otherworldly soldiers behind here, our Ba Country will turn around and seek trouble with the Demon Race.

  If your people can’t stop them, you will have to tell us what has happened in the Grand Desolate World. Once we know, we will set our sights elsewhere. How about it?”


  Upon hearing this, the four of them looked at each other and understood what the other party had planned.

  Ba Country wanted to use its power to gain something without risking anything.

  However, the other party had used the fate of their nation, the ghost qi. It seemed like the other party was serious.

  Finally, Liu Jing said.

  “Sure. I hope you keep your word.”


  “Hehe, humans are the real cunning ones. Perhaps after this bet, our Ba Country will be killed by you people. What can’t you guys do?” The ghostly face remained smiling.

  “Oh, as an insider, you can’t divulge this information. Furthermore, the nine of you cannot attack. Don’t worry, our otherworldly soldiers aren’t strong. It’s just that it’s not easy to make them stay.”


  Liu Jing and the others frowned.

  But they did not say anything.

  Instead, they stood there.

  Ba Country’s ghost qi was still here. They could not leave.

  Otherwise, they wouldn’t know what would happen.

  Whether or not Ba Country made any other moves could only depend on the people below.

  As for this game, no one really cared about it. They would wait until the results were out.

  Whether or not they would turn hostile depended entirely on the situation.

  …


  …


  On the third day.

  Jiang Lan arrived at the peak of the Ninth Summit once again.

  However, there was still no sign of his master.

  “Something’s wrong.”


  Under normal circumstances, his master would not stay away from the Ninth Summit for so many days unless something major happened.

  Was there any big event that was going to happen?

  The black aura in the Jade Pool.

  He had discovered it. Perhaps his master had also discovered it.

  “Let’s go down the mountain and see if the other summit leaders are around.”


  If only his master was not around, it might not be a big deal, but if the other summit leaders were not around either.

  Then that meant that there was a big problem.

  He would need to find out what was going on.
