“This is my room! Do I have to knock on the door to enter my own room?” Empty asked back.

“It’s ours now, so you have to knock before you enter,” Freak said very seriously.

“Oh!” Then Empty floated out, knocked on the door, and floated in again.

“I have a generation gap with him. You talk to him. I’m taking an afternoon nap.” Leng Ruoxue sighed weakly and directly closed her eyes.

“Play by yourself! Don’t disturb us.” Freak lay down beside Leng Ruoxue and hugged her, ignoring the ‘ghost’.

“Oh!” Empty looked at them and found a random seat to sit down. His imagination ran wild as he ate.

After a long while…

“Are you awake?” Empty stretched his head out in front of Leng Ruoxue.

After waking up, Leng Ruoxue was in a dazee for a moment when she saw the handsome face that suddenly appeared in front of her. She instinctively reached out her fist and directly punched, but it went through his body. Only then did she really wake up and remember this man’s identity.

“Don’t scare me so suddenly, okay!” Leng Ruoxue roared angrily.

“I… I just wanted to say hi!” Empty said aggrievedly. Boohoo… Why is this little girl so fierce!

“Your sudden appearance will scare people to death,” Leng Ruoxue said weakly with two drops of cold sweat dripping down her forehead. She realized that she really couldn’t communicate with this man who didn’t admit that he was a ghost but liked to behave like a ghost. Uh! The generation gap was probably too big!

“Oh, but are you so timid?” Empty asked doubtfully.

“No. I just can’t stand you appearing and disappearing like this,” Leng Ruoxue said bluntly.

“Then I’ll follow you from now on!” Empty said as if he had made a major decision.

“Uh! You want to follow us?” Leng Ruoxue was at a loss for words. Boohoo… This isn’t what I meant!

“Yes! That way, you won’t despise me and say that I’m like a ghost.” Empty looked at Leng Ruoxue aggrievedly.

“Erm, Empty, you’ve misunderstood me. I don’t want you to follow us.” Leng Ruoxue tried her best to lower her voice. It was really inconvenient to have a ‘ghost’ follow her.

“Alas! I knew it. You still despise me. Boohoo…” Tears welled up in his deep blue eyes…

“Uh! Are you going to cry?!” Leng Ruoxue’s head began to hurt again. When did this fellow learn this move?

“I’ve been alone for thousands of years. Boohoo… There’s no one to accompany me, no one to love me. I’m floating all alone in this world.” Empty pretended to be pitiful with tears in his eyes.

At this moment, Freak opened his eyes and said, “Xue’er, let him follow us!”

“Oh, alright then!” Leng Ruoxue replied, but she looked at Freak doubtfully. It was really strange that he wasn’t jealous. It was too unbelievable.

“Xue’er, why are you looking at me like that?” Two drops of cold sweat dripped down Freak’s forehead. Alas! He knew what she was thinking just by looking at her appearance. But the reason he agreed to let Empty stay was that he felt that this person might be useful to Xue’er in the future.

“Nothing,” Leng Ruoxue quickly said awkwardly.

“Xue’er, let’s take a walk around Carefree City!” Freak chuckled, not planning to expose her.

“Okay.” Leng Ruoxue nodded.

“I’ll accompany you and be your guide,” Empty hurriedly said.

Leng Ruoxue and Freak sat up from the bed, washed up simply, and greeted Leng Qingtian and the others. Then the two of them and the ‘ghost’ went to explore Carefree City.

“Carefree City is really becoming more and more desolate now.” Walking on the streets, Empty sent a voice transmission to the two of them with a trace of sadness on his incomparably handsome face.

“Is that so?” Leng Ruoxue replied doubtfully. She had come to the Boundless Heaven Continent for too short a time and hadn’t been to many cities, so she wasn’t sure what the difference was between this so-called desolate city and the three main cities. But Carefree City should be the busiest city she has been to.

“The current Carefree City is completely different from the one thousands of years ago,” Empty said.

“Thousands of years ago?” Leng Ruoxue looked at Empty strangely. Is this guy actually an old fart?

“As you’ve thought, I have indeed lived for thousands of years,” Empty explained calmly.

“Yes, you’re indeed an old fart,” Leng Ruoxue said in realization.

“Yes! I’m a half-dead old fart,” Empty teased.

“Empty, where do you want to bring us?” Leng Ruoxue asked curiously. Empty had been leading the way since they left the Mystic Association Headquarters.

“I want you to accompany me to meet an old friend,” Empty explained lightly.

“Your old friend? Is he also an old fart?” Leng Ruoxue couldn’t help asking.

“Yes! But he’s injured and has been sleeping,” Empty said sadly.

“Don’t tell me it’s your beast?” Leng Ruoxue guessed. Typically, only beasts liked to heal by sleeping.

“How smart. You got it right. He’s my pet beast and my most important partner,” Empty said.

“Then where is he now?” Leng Ruoxue’s face was full of curiosity.

“He’s right below.” Empty brought Leng Ruoxue and Freak to the mountain behind the Mystic Association Headquarters and pointed at a mountain stream.

“This place seems to be very deep?” Leng Ruoxue looked down the mountain stream, but she couldn’t see what was happening below at all. Almost the entire mountain stream was shrouded in thick fog.

“Yes, the fog here is poisonous. Do you dare to go down with me?” Empty asked with a faint smile while looking at the two.

Freak and Leng Ruoxue looked at each other and said in unison, “Why wouldn’t we?”

“Then let’s go!” Empty used his mystic power to envelop the two of them and brought them into the mountain stream.
