Douluo Continent: The Ten Kings of Hell, I am the Emperor of the Underworld

Chapter 27 Ghost Douluo Appears, with a Glance

After entering the Star Dou Great Forest, Ghost Douluo had a very strange feeling.

He always felt that something ahead was attracting him, but at the same time it made him feel fear, a fear that came from the depths of his soul.

Logically speaking, as a Title Douluo, even if there were soul beasts that were 100,000 years old in front of him, it shouldn't be enough to make him feel fear from the bottom of his soul.

Moreover, this fear is not the kind of fear that prey feels when facing a predator, but rather the kind of trepidation that a person of lower status feels when they are about to meet a person of higher status.

"What a hell."

The further they walked, the more pronounced the feeling of Ghost Douluo became.

Ghost Douluo's heart was pounding so hard it felt like it was going to jump out of his throat.

"Damn it, I've never been this nervous, not even when I went to see His Holiness the Pope in his fury."

Although this feeling grew stronger, Ghost Douluo did not choose to avoid this route. On the contrary, he wanted to know what was so frightening to him.

Crises often contain opportunities.

What he fears most might actually bring him immense benefits.

Even if there are no benefits, he must understand what it is about restraining himself so as to avoid being caught off guard when he suddenly encounters such a situation in the future.

Is it a soul beast? Or something else?

When that intense fear reached its peak, Ghost Douluo knew he was not far from his goal.

Ghost Douluo took a deep breath and became extremely serious.

Whether the other party is a human or a spirit beast, he should be on high alert.

Ghost Douluo used his Ghost Shadow Clone Soul Skill to send his clone to investigate the situation.

……

Zhu Zhuqing's absorption of the soul rings is nearing its end and will be over soon.

Suddenly, Ning Qiuyang sensed a dark aura approaching.

Ning Qiuyang frowned. What the hell? Didn't the three ghosts he summoned notice?

Ning Qiuyang was unaware that Ghost Douluo was actually even more shocked.

After discovering the three ghosts summoned by Ning Qiuyang, Gui Mei thought he had seen a ghost. No, he really had seen a ghost.

The mentality of these three dead souls is very similar to that of the ghostly martial spirit; they are all in a state of being ghosts.

"Could they also be someone's martial soul? No, impossible." Ghost himself rejected this guess.

Ghost-type martial souls are extremely rare; at least, Ghost only knows that he himself possesses this type of martial soul.

How could three of them suddenly appear all at once?
He was even more surprised when he noticed that these three souls had their own consciousness and could even use martial spirits.

Has he gone mad, or has the world changed?

It's one thing for a person to die and still have a ghost, but for this ghost to be able to summon a martial spirit and use soul power is just too outrageous.

The ghost noticed that the three dead souls were observing their surroundings to protect the area they had enclosed, and it immediately became incredibly curious about that area.

He sent his shadow clone stealthily over.

Ghostly Martial Soul is unique and possesses strong concealment, making his ghostly clones even more difficult to detect.

But he was horrified to discover that the closer his ghostly clone got to that place, the faster it dissipated.

Finally, the ghostly clone peered through the gaps in the leaves and branches towards the very core.

The moment the ghostly clone saw the figure, the entire clone vanished.

All that remained in the ghost's mind was a single image.

A person wearing a crown and a black robe glanced at the ghostly clone with a dignified and cold gaze.

With just a glance from a distance, the ghostly clone instantly collapsed.

"Who exactly is that person?"

The ghost shook its head desperately, but those eyes were already deeply imprinted in its mind.

Under the scrutiny of those eyes, the ghost felt it had nowhere to hide and could only obediently accept judgment.

Perhaps the next moment he would be thrown into a mountain of knives and a sea of ​​fire, or even into a cauldron of boiling oil. The ghost didn't understand where this intuition came from, or why he would be thrown into a cauldron of boiling oil, but he just had this feeling.

"Friend, since you're here, come out."

The ghost couldn't shake the gaze from its mind, but it heard a sound coming from afar.

The ghost felt an urge to escape from here as soon as possible.

But another impulse compelled him to act according to the voice's owner's commands.

"It's you?"

The ghost was terrified when it saw Ning Qiuyang.

He never expected Ning Qiuyang to be here, and he never expected that the person who instilled such fear in him, who could destroy his ghostly clone with a single glance, was actually Ning Qiuyang.

"Do you know me?" Ning Qiuyang asked.

At this moment, Zhu Zhuqing had successfully absorbed her first spirit ring and stood behind Ning Qiuyang with Zhu Zhuyun, watching the suddenly appearing Ghost Douluo warily.

Ghost Douluo didn't want to talk about it, but a voice kept telling him to answer Ning Qiuyang's question truthfully.

“I know you. You are Ning Qiuyang from the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School. I have come here to find you.”

"Looking for me? Who are you? Why are you looking for me?"

Ning Qiuyang didn't know why this person answered whatever he was asked. He knew that he was currently in his King Qin Guang form and was incredibly powerful, which could easily intimidate low-level Soul Masters.

But even Ning Qiuyang couldn't fathom this person's strength; he shouldn't be a low-level Soul Master.

The ghostly figure struggled, but still answered, word by word:

"My name is Gui Mei, and my title is 'Ghost.' I am here on the orders of the Pope of the Spirit Hall to invite you to Spirit City."

"Title Douluo?"

Zhu Zhuqing and Zhu Zhuyun exclaimed in surprise.

Although they had never witnessed the strength of a Title Douluo, they had at least heard of it.

Although Ning Qiuyang has demonstrated many amazing abilities, he is still young and is definitely not a match for a Title Douluo.

"Ghost Douluo?" Ning Qiuyang seemed to understand why he always answered his questions.

One's own Ten Kings of Hell Martial Soul is far more intimidating to ghosts than to natural enemies.

Just as an eagle will prey on a rabbit, but a rabbit will also kick the eagle when cornered, a wandering ghost can only submit to the judgment of the Ten Kings of Hell.

Unfortunately, Ghost Douluo's martial soul is Ghost.

Ning Qiuyang continued, "What did Bibi Dong tell you? Was she really asking me to go to Wuhun City?"

The ghost was tormented.

On the one hand, he didn't want to reveal His Holiness the Pope's exact orders, but on the other hand, he simply couldn't control himself.

"His Holiness the Pope's exact words were, 'We will take you to the Spirit Hall.'"

As expected, Ning Qiuyang didn't think Bibi Dong would be so polite to him, even sending a Title Douluo to invite him.

Why does Bibi Dong want to see me?

Having said everything that needed to be said, Ghost decided to stop hiding anything.

"His Holiness the Pope knows that the young master is close to you and has even met with you alone and spent some time with you, so he is somewhat curious about you."

Ning Qiuyang sneered.

"It can't just be curiosity."

If Ning Qiuyang were taken to Bibi Dong by Ghost Douluo, it's hard to say what that crazy woman might do.

It's unlikely that it's a case of a mother-in-law finding her son-in-law more and more pleasing to the eye the more she looks at him.

The ghost chuckled a few times.

"His Holiness the Pope has not shown any intention to kill you; perhaps he simply wants to see you."

Ning Qiuyang chuckled and said to Ghost Douluo:
"Weren't you going to take me to Spirit City? Perfect timing, I was just planning to go to Spirit City, so you can lead the way."
