Chapter 2155: Flying Ghost City Branch Hall

In Flying Ghost City, inside the Ghost Shadow Sect’s Branch Hall, the head of the branch was sitting in his room watching the movement outside.

Ever since Chen Hu became the branch hall master, he didn’t dare sleep too deeply. He knows very well that if he slept too deeply, he may be caught off guard by the people of the Ghost Spirit Sect. Because of this, he hasn’t slept well for a day ever since becoming the branch master. He has been paying close attention to the situation outside the city.

Many people in the Ghost Shadow Sect said that he wasn’t fit to be the hall master. Because of this, he wouldn’t be able to request support from the sect. In the end, he could only stand guard on his own.

Chen Hu also understood that if he wasn’t the branch master, he wouldn’t have obtained so many cultivation resources. Therefore, he was afraid of someone snatching his position.

While Chen Hu was cultivating, a sound of wings fluttering was heard outside the city. Chen Hu couldn’t help but be stunned. He immediately opened his eyes and went outside his room.

After arriving outside, Chen Hu looked up and saw a dark cloud flying over. Chen Hu stared for a moment, but then he discovered that the cloud was composed of small birds. Chen Hu couldn’t count the number of birds present in the flock.

Chen Hu was stunned by the scale of the flock. Then his vision changed. Just as he was about to alert someone, his throat became stuck. Chen Hu looked down and found a long sword sticking out of his neck. Chen Hu was stunned, and then his sight turned black. If Chen Hu wasn’t finished by the sword in his neck, he would still be killed by the multiple swords that hit his body soon after.

At this time, in the courtyard of the Ghost Shadow Sect’s Branch Hall, several shadows charged in while killing everyone. Nobody from the Ghost Shadow Sect were able to reach due to the sudden attack.

The moment the Ghost Shadow Sect’s Flying Ghost City was attacked, the Ghost Shadow Sect was alerted. Their first reaction was that the Ghost Spirit Sect attacked them. The Ghost Shadow Sect immediately took action and organized people to support the Flying Ghost City branch. But just as the group activated their portable transmission formations, they suddenly found that the portable transmission formations couldn’t be used. Even the fixed transmission formation couldn’t send people to Flying Ghost City.

The people from the Ghost Shadow Sect couldn’t help but stare. They immediately reinforced the thought that they were plotted against by the Ghost Spirit Sect. If it wasn’t for the people from the Ghost Spirit Sect, the enemy wouldn’t have been so prepared. Even the transmission formation has been sealed by them.

The sect quickly organized people to head to the city nearest to the Flying Ghost City branch. Then they flew directly to the city.

The moment the Ghost Shadow Sect received news of the attack, the Ghost Spirit Sect also got wind of the attack. Flying Ghost City was also an important location for the Ghost Spirit Sect. The Ghost Spirit Sect has always wanted to take the city from the Ghost Shadow Sect. Now that someone was taking action against Flying Ghost City, the Ghost Spirit Sect was naturally happy. The moment they received the news, the Ghost Spirit Sect branches nearest to Flying Ghost City quickly strengthened their defenses. They were afraid that this was a trick of the Ghost Shadow Sect.

Before long, the first batch of the Ghost Shadow Sect’s reinforcements arrived in the Ghost Ox City Branch Hall, which was the closest branch to Flying Ghost City. Then they flew straight towards Flying Ghost City.

While the group was flying to Flying Ghost City, they suddenly felt several formidable ki attacks coming towards them. Before the group could respond, those in front fell down like dried leaves.

Several experts from the Ghost Shadow Sect who were in the Teleportation Stage arrived. As soon as they saw the attacks, their expressions couldn’t help but change. They could immediately see that the attackers were from the True Spirit Realm.

At this time, several attacks were coming towards the Ghost Shadow Sect experts. They immediately started to counter-attack. But before long, they discovered that their attacks were useless. The other party was just too strong.

When these experts found out, their hearts were startled. They also discovered that their portable transmission formations have been rendered useless. While they were feeling hopeless, they were flooded by countless attacks.

After an hour, five groups of reinforcements from the Ghost Shadow Sect have been eliminated. At this time, a firework exploded above Flying Ghost City. Those ambushing the reinforcements quickly disappeared.

Ten minutes after everything was wiped out, a group from the Ghost Shadow Sect finally arrived in Flying Ghost City. They quickly found out that nothing was left in the branch hall. Even the people who came to reinforce the city were gone.

The people from the Ghost Shadow Sect could infer from the traces of attack that the attackers of the Flying Ghost City Branch were from the True Spirit Realm. As soon as this was reported, the Ghost Shadow Sect was immediately startled. Ghost Cultivators were aware that from time to time, the True Spirit Realm would send people down to attack Ghost Cultivators. Despite knowing this, the Ghost Shadow Sect didn’t expect that they would be the target this time.

The Ghost Shadow Sect immediately sent people to conduct a careful investigation of the scene. However, the result of their investigation surprised the sect. They found that the people who attacked them might not be from the True Spirit Realm. There were traces of Ghost Cultivator attacks among the clues left behind. Although the other party did a lot of cover-ups, the Ghost Shadow Sect was still able to sniff it out. This caused a stir within the sect.

The Ghost Shadow Sect immediately formed an idea in their head. Flying Ghost City was a thorn on the side of the Ghost Spirit Sect. The Ghost Spirit Sect sending people to attack Flying Ghost City and then pinning the act on the True Spirit Realm was highly probable.

The Ghost Shadow Sect and the Ghost Spirit Sect didn’t have a good relationship. Seeing the hidden traces, the Ghost Shadow Sect immediately thought that the Ghost Spirit Sect was plotting against them. The gates of battle between the two sects began to open. The Ghost Shadow Sect wouldn’t just ignore the attack. They quickly retaliated. Meanwhile, the Ghost Spirit Sect also didn’t want to become punching bags. They began to fight back. It didn’t take long before the two sects were in an all-out war.

While all of these were happening, Zhao Hai and the others were hiding in an uninhabited valley. Long Xiang was listening to the reports from Liu Zhen. Since Liu Zhen wasn’t suitable for frontal assault, her group was sent by Long Xiang to monitor the reaction of the Ghost Shadow Sect and the Ghost Spirit Sect.

Liu Zhen was giving her report with a smile on her face, “Old Xiang, we really made a good plan this time. The Ghost Shadow Sect and the Ghost Spirit Sect are in an all-out war. Several surrounding sects have also made some moves. But they were taking a defensive stance and didn’t take the initiative to attack. It’s clear that they don’t want to participate in the struggle between the two sects.”

Long Xiang laughed and said, “Good. During our previous attacks, we would be discovered the moment we made a move. I didn’t expect that we could still stay hidden at this time. Good, good!”

At this moment, Deng Wen said, “Although this attack was good. We should also prepare for our next attack. Old Xiang, we should go to your previous target.”

Long Xiang looked at the map and frowned. After some time, he said, “Call Little Hai over. What is that kid doing right now?”

Hearing Long Xiang, Deng Wen couldn’t help but laugh, “Little Hai is cultivating. He expended a lot of energy when hiding our traces.”

Long Xiang stared, then his eyes furrowed as he asked, “Is he fine?” Deng Wen shook his head and said, “He should be alright. He just needs some rest.”

Long Xiang nodded. Then he looked at the map and said, “Call Little Hai over as soon as he recovers. Now that the Ghost Shadow Sect and the Ghost Spirit Sect are at war, our next goal is to provoke other sects to war. As long as the Ghost Cultivator Sects are in chaos, our goal will be accomplished.”

The others nodded. Long Xiang wasn’t speaking wrong. If their group of 1000 can incite the underground world into chaos, then their expedition would be a monumental success.

Long Xiang looked at the others and said, “Everyone, you should take a rest first. We will act after a while. If we take action immediately, we will definitely attract the attention of the Ghost Cultivators. Let’s hide first and watch the show.” Everyone laughed and then returned to their teams.

Although Zhao Hai seemed to be practicing, he was still able to hear Long Xiang’s words. The results went according to his plan. From preparation to post-operation affairs, everything went along Zhao Hai’s expectations.

Moreover, it was no luck that the Ghost Shadow Sect quickly concluded that it was the Ghost Spirit Sect that attacked. Zhao Hai used the contradiction between the two sects and left traces of the True Spirit Realm cultivators on the scene. And under those traces, he also placed traces of Ghost Cultivators. So as soon as the Ghost Shadow Sect dug deeper, they immediately thought that the Ghost Spirit Sect was using the True Spirit Realm’s reputation to eliminate the Flying Ghost City Branch.

And when the Ghost Shadow Sect wanted to attack the Ghost Spirit Sect, they found that the branch halls of the Ghost Spirit Sect were on full alert. This reinforced the Ghost Shadow Sect’s suspicions.

What the Ghost Shadow Sect didn’t know was that the reason the Ghost Spirit Sect was on guard was because of the attack on Flying Ghost City. The Ghost Spirit Sect has no idea what was happening to the city. Naturally, they were afraid and put up their guard. Unfortunately for the Ghost Spirit Sect, their actions were misunderstood by the Ghost Shadow Sect. Thus, the two sides clashed.

Everything was under Zhao Hai’s control. By this point, Zhao Hai had lost all sympathy towards Ghost Cultivators. After passing through multiple humanoid villages, Zhao Hai saw how the humanoids were being treated. Zhao Hai couldn’t wait to destroy every Ghost Cultivator he met.

It wasn’t the first time that Zhao Hai saw slavery. But this is Zhao Hai’s first time seeing how the Ghost Cultivators were treating the humanoids of the underground world. The lives of the underground humanoids were much worse than all other slaves that Zhao Hai saw. It was precisely because of this that Zhao Hai was willing to make the Ghost Cultivators pay.

Zhao Hai didn’t believe that he was a good person. But he also wasn’t an evil person. He wouldn’t kill people just because he wanted to test things out. Even if the beings that were subjugated by the Space have become his slaves, Zhao Hai let them live however they liked. He wouldn’t squeeze them endlessly.
