"Li Yun?"

Haidong Sheng scrutinized Li Hengsheng, his gaze filled with suspicion.

"Where are you from?"

Hearing Haidong Sheng's question, Li Hengsheng's heart skipped a beat. If he couldn't explain his origins, things would undoubtedly become troublesome.

His lie would be exposed.

But Li Hengsheng had never been to Yunhuang before, so how could he know where he came from?

"What? You don't even know where you're from?" Not just Haidong Sheng, but the surrounding Ghost Clan soldiers also frowned, and someone even drew their sword from their waist, ready to subdue Li Hengsheng at the first sign of trouble.@@novelbin@@

"I come from the Long Night Ancient Nation."

Li Hengsheng gritted his teeth and blurted out a name he rarely knew.

If they kept pressing him, Li Hengsheng really wouldn't know what to do but to fight his way out and escape.

Who would have thought that upon mentioning he was from the Long Night Ancient Nation, the Ghost Clan soldiers burst into laughter.

"So that's it. No wonder you were reluctant to say. Ha ha, the once-famed Long Night Ancient Nation was obliterated overnight by the Longevity Sect. Even that peerless genius Chu Changkong from your nation is now missing. To be reduced to such a state by a mere Longevity Sect, and still call yourselves an ancient nation, is utterly disgraceful."

"Even people from the Long Night Ancient Nation have fallen to our Yegui City? Truly laughable. Once, your nation was invincible."

Faced with everyone's mockery, Li Hengsheng said nothing, but he felt relieved inside.

Being ridiculed, Li Hengsheng stood silently.

At this moment, a Ghost Clan soldier said to Haidong Sheng, "Lord Hai, we've interrogated everyone in the cells, but we haven't found anyone called Li Hengsheng. It seems he's not in our Yegui City."

Hearing this, Li Hengsheng's heart jolted—they were actually looking for him.

"Let's try our luck." Another Ghost Clan soldier chuckled, "After all, the Cangyuan Realm Master has issued a wanted order. This Li Hengsheng can be exchanged for a Painting Treasure of the Immortal level. If he really appears in our Yegui City, wouldn't you make a fortune, Lord Hai?"

Haidong Sheng didn't say anything, his gaze still fixed on the four people before him, then he slowly said, "Keep those from the cells and these four here for now. Have them stay and work as slaves in the mansion. In a few days, Li Hengsheng's portrait will arrive here, and we'll see if any of them match."
