Chu Hao seed pensive. The disciples of the Ghost Dao Sect are certainly unique. The weaker their Yin Qi and physical body, the stronger their actual power. This old man looks sickly, almost like he's on his last breath, but his strength is actually quite formidable. Once all the people from the Ghost Dao Sect arrive... they might not be easy to deal with. Ever since my encounter with Emperor Bai Jiang, I've known there are always greater powers out there. If Emperor Bai Jiang can handle a Ghost General, could their Ghost Path Sect Leader also possess such ability? That's really hard to say. Since the Ghost Path Sect Leader is delaying his arrival, that's even better. Brother Hao will first take care of these shrimp soldiers and crab generals.
Chu Hao asked, "When will your sect leader arrive?"
Ma Yi sneered inwardly. After the Ghost Path Sect Leader was inford, he hadn't rushed to Huaxia. Instead, he had rely instructed Ma Yi to go and see what kind of person this was, daring to put on an act in the Ghost Dao Sect's territory. So narcissistic! Pretending to be a deity has its limits, yet he even calls himself a Divine Deity!
Ma Yi's face remained expressionless as he replied, "The sect leader will arrive in half a day."
"When will the others arrive? As a Divine Deity, I have a very important announcent to make, a ssage from the Underworld," Chu Hao said.
However, upon hearing the latter part of Chu Hao's statent, Ma Yi's face showed utter astonishnt. He was still trying to figure out Chu Hao's identity, so when Chu Hao ntioned a ssage from the Underworld, Ma Yi was completely taken aback. "My lord!" he exclaid. "Is... is there truly a ssage from the Underworld?"
Chu Hao stroked his chin. His words were thought-provoking as he replied indifferently, "What do you think?"
Ma Yi grew excited; only core mbers of the Ghost Dao Sect knew the sect's secrets. The Ghost Dao Sect was an organization created in the Yang Realm by an important figure from the Underworld. If Chu Hao brought a ssage from the Underworld, then it has to be authentic! Perhaps he really is an Underworld Deity who was sent here!
Thinking this, Ma Yi promptly said, "Please wait, sir. The others will arrive soon."
Chu Hao said, "Tell them to hurry, the faster the better."
"Yes." Ma Yi imdiately went to carry out the task.
Chu Hao chuckled inwardly. The Ghost Dao Sect is surprisingly easy to fool. Still, I'm curious. Ma Yi actually believed just because I ntioned the Underworld. Could there be so connection between them? It seems I've inadvertently struck the right chord and made him change his attitude.
...
Chu Hao waited quietly in the villa. Within an hour, more and more people arrived, including so familiar faces. Wang Qi's master, that old man, was also here. Chu Hao rembered that his granddaughter was still in the hands of the Ghost Dao Sect.
Hmm... I might be able to help him later.
If the old man knew what Chu Hao was thinking, he'd probably want to cry.
Unexpectedly, another familiar face appeared: Wang Ku!
Chu Hao was overjoyed. The Water Drought-Demon is with Wang Ku! That mission isn't complete yet—more Experience Points are on their way!
Chu Hao noted that a good number of people had arrived. If any more show up, I might not be able to handle them, especially if so are quite strong. I won't make a move yet; I'll see what their strength is like first, Chu Hao murmured to himself.
Thus, he took out the Ghost Mask and put it on. The mask's function was simple: it altered his aura, making him seem part-human, part-ghost, and difficult to discern.
At this mont, in the main hall of the villa, about thirty or forty people had gathered. The wealthy could only stay outside; they had no right to enter.
Wang Ku was anxious. He had been unsuccessfully attempting to refine a corpse for so ti now and was eager to save his master. Wang Ku respectfully said, "Third Elder, may I know the urgent matter for which you've summoned everyone?"
Ma Yi's face bore an inscrutable smile; he believed that an Envoy from the Underworld would certainly have an important ssage. "A very important matter. Just wait patiently for now."
"Oh." Wang Ku scratched his head. His dark circles were heavy, but he still waited calmly.
In the villa's main hall, a figure wearing a Ghost Mask erged, and everyone turned to look.
The crowd was astonished. The masked person had no trace of Yang Qi! Those from the Ghost Dao Sect, accustod to dealing with corpses, could easily tell that this individual had no aura of the living. How bizarre! Is this a person or a ghost?
DING! Host has mysteriously shown off, earning 500 show-off points.
Ma Yi was also shocked and even more certain this was an Envoy from the Underworld. Ma Yi hastily said, "Greetings, my lord."
Seeing the Third Elder acting this way, the others also respectfully said, "Greetings, my lord."
Chu Hao stood with his hands behind his back, his eyes beneath the Ghost Mask surveying everyone. "How many more of you have yet to arrive?" he asked.
Ma Yi quickly replied, "Only one-tenth of the Ghost Sect Disciples have co."
Only one-tenth? That's almost enough, Chu Hao thought. Then he waved his hand. "No ti to wait. Now, listen up!"
The villa fell silent, and everyone listened attentively.
Chu Hao started bluffing, "I have just co from the Underworld with a task, which is to select so disciples for training to strengthen our Ghost Path Sect."
What!!
The crowd exploded upon hearing this.
Ma Yi's body trembled with excitent. Isn't this a colossal opportunity? As long as this great one takes notice of us, won't our strength greatly increase?
Ma Yi asked eagerly, "My lord, what specifically do we need to do?"
Chu Hao said indifferently, "It depends on your strength."
The crowd was shocked. Are we going to fight here?
Chu Hao's idea was simple. Since they all believe , I'll just trick them into fighting amongst themselves. That'll save the effort of taking action myself. Haha... I'm just too clever!
Indeed, the people below erupted into a clamor. Given Ma Yi's initial respectful deanor, everyone now believed Chu Hao's identity without a doubt, overcoming any initial hesitation.
"I'll go first."
A burly man stepped forward, tall and well-built, standing well over 1.9 ters. He took out a black Talisman and shouted, "Evil Spirit on high, with my own blood, I summon thee, evil ghost, swift as the law!"
A horrific Ghost Baby appeared behind the man, its hair disheveled, emitting a strong Ghost Qi.
"A Yinsha Ghost!" exclaid the Ghost Sect Disciples.
Chu Hao glanced at the Ghost Shadow; it was just a low-level Dark Killing Ghost, truly uninteresting. "Next."
The man was taken aback. "Am I not good enough?"
Chu Hao replied indifferently, "Too weak."
What!
The crowd exclaid in shock. A ghost of this level was considered weak? Weren't these standards too high? Truthfully, most of the people present weren't as powerful as the burly man. Doesn't that an many of us will be eliminated? they thought anxiously.
The burly man imdiately beca indignant. "I think I am capable of taking on this important task! With my strength, how many here can even be my opponent?"
His words indeed made many lower their heads, not daring to look directly at him.
Chu Hao looked at him and said coldly, "You disagree?"
The burly man's eyes were filled with defiance. "I do."
He doubted Chu Hao's identity. Is this person really from the Underworld? If so, he should have seen Ghost Officiants before. The strength of a Ghost Officiant isn't much different from my Evil Spirit Ghost Shadow! This was the reason for his defiance.
Chu Hao snorted coldly. "Let your Evil Spirit attack . If it can withstand a single move, I'll give you a spot. How about that?"
The crowd gasped. One move! Just one move to win the favor of an Underworld Deity?
The burly man said excitedly, "Alright!"
