Henry Zhang stood on a city tower, looking at the gradually brightening sky, he couldn't help frowning, and murmured softly:
"strangeness……"
At this moment, half a day had passed since he received the blood curse mark on his body.
During this period of time, tens of thousands of ghosts came from all directions, just to kill Henry Zhang.
Of course, their final outcome was that they were mercilessly killed by the underworld soldiers, and their corpses were piled up in the city as high as a hill.
But what puzzles Henry Zhang is that among the army of ghosts coming, there is not a ghost emperor!
Even now, not even a little ghost-level ghost has appeared.
If these people who just killed were all the ghosts on Xuanwu Continent, Xiao Yang would definitely not believe it. The only explanation is that someone told these ghost emperors that the blood curse seal was a trap!
But the key is, who will it be?
In Henry Zhang's mind, a figure suddenly appeared, and it became clearer and more solid!
"Nine-tailed Ghost King!"
Xiao Yang narrowed his eyes slightly, and a icy cold light passed through them, and he immediately shouted:
"Bull head!"
The next moment, a burly figure appeared, half-kneeling in front of Henry Zhang, and saluted respectfully:
"My subordinate is here!"
"What happened to the matter that asked you to hunt down the Nine-Tailed Ghost Emperor before?" Xiao Yang asked.
Hearing this, Niutou couldn't help but look guilty, and replied: "Back to my lord, this nine-tailed ghost emperor is really cunning. I chased him several times, but he still managed to escape by cutting off his tail to survive."
Got it!"
Henry Zhang couldn't help but frowned and asked again: "Then do you know where it is now?"
Niutou still shook his head with guilt on his face.
Henry Zhang frowned even more tightly.
It has to be said that the existence of this nine-tailed ghost emperor is indeed a big trouble for today's Xuanwu Continent.
It's not because of his strength, but because of this guy's strategy, which is even better than other Ghost Emperors.
Just like what happened today, Xiao Yang was sure that the Nine-tailed Ghost King had united with the other Ghost King to prevent the Blood Curse Seal from working!
Not to mention, these combined Ghost Kings are a force that cannot be ignored. If we find another opportunity to summon the Ghost King, things will be very serious!
"We must find a way to kill these ghost kings in one fell swoop!"
Henry Zhang's eyes flickered, and then he still felt that this matter needed to be discussed in the long term, so he said: "Let's go back to the Yanyang Federation first!"
"yes!"
Several underworld gods immediately flew away with Henry Zhang.
…
At the same time, in the principal's office of the Demon Slayer Academy.
Tan Zimo was sitting on a chair, looking particularly uneasy. Suddenly there was a knock on the door, which made him tremble!
"Come in, come in..."
The door was then pushed open, and a group of senior officials from the city guild headquarters stepped in.
The person leading it is none other than the president of the headquarters guild, Wang Mang!
The moment he saw the people in front of him, Tan Zimo's expression changed, he stood up quickly, and shouted at a loss: "President Wang Mang!"
"Dean Tan, I think you should give me an explanation, right?" Wang Mang said with a gloomy look.
"I wonder what explanation President Wang Mang gave?" Tan Zimo asked cautiously.
"snort!"
Wang Mang snorted coldly, his expression extremely stern, and said in a deep voice: "The embarrassing incident of your Ghost Slaying Academy during the Ghost Festival has been spread throughout the entire Xuanwu Continent, but you still pretend to be ignorant here with me.
Love?!"
Tan Zimo explained with a guilty look on his face: "The strength of the ghosts that came during the Ghost Festival this time is indeed beyond our imagination, but fortunately, the situation was finally controlled..."
After hearing this explanation, Wang Mang's face became even more ugly. He immediately said angrily: "Is that a situation controlled by your Ghost Slaying Academy? Ah?! It's obviously the Ghost Control Academy that sent all the students to various places in the mainland.
Only with the support from the city did we kill the ferocious ghost!"
"President Wang Mang, there is a misunderstanding!"
Tan Zimo quickly said: "This Ghost Festival, the top ghost slayers in our academy still killed a lot of ghosts!"
"Pooh!"
Wang Mang said in a very disdainful tone: "The top ghost slayer you call has only killed three ghost kings in total, and that's even when 80% of the personnel were killed. Are you proud of this achievement?!"
"I……"
Tan Zimo opened his mouth, but couldn't speak.
"Why, you can't quibble anymore? Keep bragging to me about your families' methods of exorcising ghosts!"
Wang Mang was so angry that he puffed his beard and glared, with a few veins popping up on his forehead. He gritted his teeth and said, "Thankfully I believed in your evil deeds at first. I thought that the method of exorcising ghosts that you have passed down from generation to generation was so powerful, but I didn't expect that it was all...
These are useless tricks!"
"President Wang Mang, you can scold me, but you can't slander our families' methods of exorcising ghosts without any basis!" Tan Zimo looked indignant.
"Hmph, do you still need evidence? Isn't this Hungry Ghost Festival enough to prove that your method of exorcising ghosts is of no use against ghosts?!"
Wang Mang looked directly into Tan Zimo's eyes and suddenly sneered: "Moreover, I have sent people to investigate and found out the inside story of the first time your Ghost Slaying Academy sent people out to practice. Those ghosts that were killed were not killed by you at all.
He was killed by a mysterious and powerful man at the hands of a student from the Ghost Slayer Academy!"
At this point, Tan Zimo could only seek medical treatment in a hurry: "President Wang Mang, that mysterious and powerful man is from our Ghost Slaying Academy!"
"oh?"
Wang Mang seemed to have expected what Tan Zimo would say, and said with a half-smile: "As far as I know, this mysterious strong man is extremely short, but he can change his body shape and instantly rise to three or four meters tall. Now you can put this
If you call someone and demonstrate this magical power in front of me, I can forget all the things that happened before!"
"This person is still outside..."
Tan Zimo's face turned pale, and he still wanted to continue to quibble, but was interrupted by Wang Mang's roar.
"enough!!!"
In the decades since he served as the president of the City Guild Headquarters, Wang Mang has never been so angry, so the gloomy look on his face has made others a little scared.
"Are you really thinking that you are an senile person who believes what I say?"
"Tan Zimo, listen carefully, this is my final announcement to you. Before tomorrow, I want you and the members of your ghost exorcism families to pack up and leave!"
"If I see you bastards here tomorrow, don't blame me for being rude!"
After saying that, Wang Mang no longer gave Tan Zimo any room for quibbles. He led a group of senior city guild officials and angrily slammed the door and left.
