CHAPTER 1706: CHAPTER 1008. GHOST CITY (2)

Chapter 1008

Since Mo Jiuli belongs to the Human Clan, Dawen and Xiaowen would leave one of them to stay by Mo Jiuli and the others’ side each time, as humans are very tempting food for the Evil Ghosts and Souls in the Ghost World. Even Lingling has a great temptation for souls...

Generally, either Dawen or Xiaowen would accompany Mo Jiuli and Lingling, and the other would take Elder Fan to search for Mo Qingtian and Mo Cheng’s whereabouts. However, the Ghost City is even larger than Huangquan City, and the number of ghosts is naturally several times more. Finding them slowly this way, who knows when they’ll locate them...

Thus, after much thought, Mo Jiuli decided it was better to sneak into the City Lord’s Mansion and take a look. After pinpointing the location of the mansion, and once Xiaowen took Elder Fan away, Mo Jiuli signaled to Lingling...

Lingling then approached Dawen and said, "Dawen, my Mother said she’s cultivating, so the two of us should go check out the surrounding area nearby. We won’t go far and will come back quickly! Otherwise, if we rely on Xiaowen and Elder Fan, it’ll take a long time to search the entire Ghost City!"

Dawen thought about it and agreed, so he instructed Mo Jiuli not to leave randomly and took Lingling out of the inn! Mo Jiuli received Lingling’s signal that they left the inn’s premises, returned to the space alone, and had the little book control the space to leave the inn...

Then, Mo Jiuli headed alone towards the direction of the City Lord’s Mansion, and shortly arrived across from the mansion. The architecture of the City Lord’s Mansion wasn’t anything particularly special; a pitch-dark, two-story building that looked very majestic and quite imposing...

Mo Jiuli casually observed for a while from a dark alley opposite, finding nothing out of the ordinary, and then slowly approached the City Lord’s Mansion. As soon as she walked in, she saw two guards coming over asking, "What are you doing? This is the City Lord’s Mansion, move along if you have no business here, don’t loiter around!"

"I’m here to see the City Lord!" Mo Jiuli said directly. Dawen had told her that since Yama built the Ghost City to mirror the Human World, he didn’t like others calling him Yama and always had people call him the City Lord!

"Looking for the City Lord? What do you want with the City Lord?" The two guards glanced at Mo Jiuli, discovering this female ghost was extremely beautiful, wondering if she was favored by the City Lord? Their attitudes become a bit more polite suddenly.

Although their City Lord usually isn’t fond of women, ordinary female ghosts naturally wouldn’t catch the City Lord’s eye, but this female ghost before them was the most beautiful they had ever seen, with no exceptions.

Mo Jiuli gauged their thoughts, slightly lowered her head and softly said, "The City Lord said I could directly come in to find him!"

"Ah... Like this, huh, then follow me!" The two, hearing this, were momentarily stunned and took another look at Mo Jiuli, thinking it’s understandable for someone this exceptionally beautiful to be favored by the City Lord.

Thus, one guard led Mo Jiuli inside, and Mo Jiuli nodded and followed behind, discovering the path the guard took indeed avoided some simple array formations here.

"When did the City Lord tell you to come?" The guard in front casually asked.

"He told me earlier, but I..." Mo Jiuli hesitated intentionally.

Upon hearing this, the guard became more convinced that Mo Jiuli was indeed the female ghost favored by the City Lord, because a few days ago the City Lord did go out once, and when he returned, the guard remembered the City Lord wearing a rare smile, clearly having experienced something good! It seems that the City Lord went out a few days ago just to find this stunning female ghost...
