Chapter 40 The ghost king is shocked! Ghosts are dispatched!
However, Xiao Yang ultimately rejected Yang Tianzhi’s request.
"President Yang, I appreciate your kindness, but in my opinion, it is not a good idea for the city guild to join the Sun Federation."
"..."
Yang Tianzhi couldn't help being stunned for a moment.
He didn't expect that there would be people in this world who would refuse to join the City Guild.
"Why is this?" Yang Tianzhi asked in confusion.
"As we all know, the city guild is an absolutely neutral force, but once you join the Sun Federation, you will lose this neutrality, and your prestige among the cities will be greatly reduced."
Henry Zhang looked calm and explained: "At that time, I'm afraid it will arouse many people's doubts, which will put the city guild into an unfavorable situation."
Hearing this, Yang Tianzhi immediately realized this and said with a slight wry smile:
"It seems that I am indeed not thinking carefully."
Henry Zhang shook his head and said: "I know, President Yang, you are trying to unite the front with us, but in fact, even if you don't join the Sun Federation, we will do our best to deal with the coming of ghosts!"
"In that case, that's good."
Yang Tianzhi nodded, and at the same time, he admired Henry Zhang in his heart.
If it were an ordinary person, faced with such a proposal, even if they could weigh the pros and cons, it would be difficult to resist the temptation, and they would most likely agree to it as soon as they are tempted.
But Henry Zhang can always remain calm.
Such a character is really rare.
This also strengthened Yang Tianzhi's determination to follow Xiao Yang in the future.
"President Yang, I wonder when will the next ghost come?" Henry Zhang suddenly asked.
"If nothing else happens, it will be on the Hungry Ghost Festival half a year later." Yang Tianzhi replied thoughtfully.
"Then it seems I have to prepare in advance." Xiao Yang narrowed his eyes and said.
Half a year is neither long nor short.
If we can take this period of time to bring the Sun Federation's strength closer, it will be able to deal with it more calmly when ghosts come.
"Not only that, Alliance Leader Xiao, you also need to be on guard against the Ghost King."
Yang Tianzhi said in a deep voice: "Now that Zhang Yupeng is dead, the ghost king will lose a big source of food. I'm afraid it won't let it go!"
"Thanks for the reminder."
Henry Zhang nodded solemnly.
…
At the same time, in a barren mountain thousands of miles away.
A deafening roar echoed, causing all the rocks within a hundred meters to shatter!
"What did you say?"
"The Golden Federation is completely destroyed?!"
Above the void, the black smoke around the ghost king kept billowing, showing the overwhelming anger in his master's heart.
The little ghost in front of it was lying on the ground, trembling all over.
"What about my king's ghost army?!" the ghost king said with a gloomy look.
"They're all dead too..." the little ghost replied tremblingly.
"What?!"
The Ghost King was extremely shocked, his tone full of disbelief.
"How can the human army possibly kill my army of ghosts?!"
The kid replied: "Report to the king, it was not the human army that killed the ghost army, but a group of Yin soldiers from the underworld!"
"Underworld?"
Hearing these four words, this ghost king from the ghost world only felt that they sounded familiar, but couldn't remember where he had heard them.
After all, those memories are too long ago.
But the Ghost King doesn't care about this. In its view, sooner or later he will unify the Xuanwu Continent. What does a Netherworld mean?
"Tang He, Du Yuan!"
Following the ghost king's cold shout, two figures walked out of the raging black smoke.
"My subordinate is here!"
They were two haggard men with dull skin, wearing broken armor, with rotten wounds everywhere on their bodies, and even the bones inside could be seen.
The two of them were like corpses crawling out of the battlefield.
In fact, they were indeed two generals who died on the battlefield. While their souls were wandering, they were accepted by the Ghost King as his subordinates.
After several years of continuously devouring the essence of living things, the two of them have also broken through to the level of ghost generals, and can be regarded as the most powerful ghosts under the ghost king.
"Go and find out who this leader of the Netherworld is. If you have the chance, kill him!" the Ghost King ordered coldly.
"Hey, don't worry, Your Majesty. In less than three days, we will bring this person's head to see you!" Ghost General Tang He said confidently.
He had killed countless people over the years, and he was already very good at this kind of job.
The Ghost King nodded with satisfaction.
"Go for it!"
…
Sun Federation, in the dead of night.
The drowsy guard on the tower suddenly seemed to hear something. He raised his eyes and found that a puff of black smoke had appeared in front of him.
As the black smoke surged and rolled, the figures of two ghost generals stepped out.
This made all the guards suddenly shocked and woke up.
But before they could shout the words "enemy attack", one of the ghost generals had already taken a step forward and chopped off a guard's head.
Blood splashed freely and covered Tang He's palm, but he stuck out his tongue and licked it, as if it was something delicious.
Du Yuan grabbed another guard, lifted him high, and asked indifferently:
"Let me ask you, who is the owner of the Netherworld? Where is he now?"
The guard was so frightened that his whole body was shaking, and he said in a trembling voice: "Underworld? I don't know what you are talking about!"
"You are a guard of Yanyang City, but you tell me that you don't know what the underworld is?" Du Yuan sneered disdainfully.
"I really don't know!" the guard shouted desperately.
"In that case, you can go and die."
Du Yuan said lightly, and a stream of black smoke billowed up from his hand, then got into the latter's throat.
Soon, the guard's body shrank quickly, like a melon that had been sucked dry, turning into a mummy.
Tang He came to the last remaining guard and asked, "What about you?"
The last guard collapsed directly to the ground, and said without tears: "I don't know, I have never heard of the Netherworld. I only know that our city lord is Henry Zhang!"
“Xiao Yang?”
Tang He and Du Yuan looked at each other.
“Then where is your city lord Xiao Yang?”
The guard quickly said: "It's at the City Lord's Mansion in the center of the city, just go east!"
"very good."
After Du Yuan got the answer, he still had no intention of letting go of the guard. He smiled ferociously and stretched out his palm, sucking the guard into a human body.
The two of them immediately set off towards the city lord's mansion.
Under the dark night, the two figures looked like ghosts and did not attract any attention.
And just as they were approaching the city lord's mansion, they suddenly discovered a patrolling Yin soldier.
"That should be the Yin soldiers from the Netherworld, right?"
"It just feels like this!"
The two people in the darkness observed the Yin soldiers, looking a little disappointed.
“Then kill this Yin soldier first, and then kill Henry Zhang!”
