Just then, the Ghost King's Palace appeared in the night.
Xu Yeyue stopped abruptly, and like a falling leaf, silently landed in the manor.
With light, nimble steps, like a ghost, they arrived at the Ghost King's study in the blink of an eye.
"Still no news from Yue'er?"
A weary voice rang out from the study, "Yue'er has been away from home for two days this time. Did she encounter danger, or did someone upset her again?"
"Master, I don't know. However, I have already sent people from the Ghost King's Palace to search for them."
"Sigh!" The Ghost King sighed, "This isn't your fault. Go down."
As soon as she finished speaking, the door was pushed open, and a smiling young girl dressed in a moon-white dress walked in.
"Daddy, I'm back!"
The Ghost King breathed a sigh of relief: "Moon, you're finally back. Did you encounter any danger these past two days?"
"Yes, junior sister, if anyone bullies you, tell me, and I'll tear them apart." Little Ghost King Jing Cheng's cold eyes were extremely sharp.
Xu Yeyue is the daughter of the Ghost King's Mansion, everyone's source of joy.
If anyone dares to bully them, they've definitely stirred up a hornet's nest.
"Oh dear, who dares to bully me!" Xu Yeyue snorted. "Alright, Senior Brother, you should go and rest. I still have something to discuss with Father!"
Jingcheng looked coldly at the Ghost King, seeking his opinion.
The Ghost King waved his hand: "You may go now (Good day, Your Majesty). Now that Yue'er has returned, those who were sent out should be withdrawn. His Majesty's vigilance has been increasing recently, and the Ghost King's Palace is not a suitable place for this."
Too flamboyant.
"Yes."
Jing Cheng nodded, bowed, and respectfully left the room, closing the door behind him.
The Ghost King looked at Xu Yeyue and said, "Speak, Yue'er, what is it that you need to tell your father alone?"
"Hehe, this is a big deal, it shouldn't be heard by others." Xu Yeyue chuckled, "Father, why don't you guess what happened to me these past two days?"
"Could it be that you've met your Mr. Right, and that's why you've been away for two days?" The Ghost King chuckled. "Let me tell you, while I may not be one for many formalities, I still don't want the moon to..."
"My dear, you're pregnant with someone else's child before you're even married!"
"Father!" Xu Yeyue blushed deeply. "What are you talking about? Where did this perfect husband come from, and where is he pregnant with any child! I'm talking about serious matters!"

"Alright, alright, let's get down to business!"
Ghost King Xu Ruowu was a scholar of both heaven and man, proficient in martial arts, celestial phenomena, and miscellaneous knowledge.
He could tell at a glance whether a woman was a virgin.
The reason I said that was simply to give a heads-up and a reminder.
After all, his daughter was quite crazy, and if he didn't remind her, she might actually do something like that.
"Tell me, what's making you so happy that you're keeping it a secret from your father?"
Xu Yeyue chuckled lightly: "Father, aren't you going to guess?"
Xu Ruowu sighed, "Your father isn't a god, how could he possibly guess?"
“Alright then.” Xu Yeyue nodded. “Then I’ll tell you, Father, don’t be too surprised.”
"Hmm." The Ghost King nodded, his face calm. "What hasn't your father experienced? Just tell me."
"These past two days, I've come across a chat group for all the heavens. It contains gods, demons, and even great immortals!"
Xu Yeyue recounted the story in detail, leaving the Ghost King completely bewildered.
Could it be that my daughter has fallen under some kind of demonic spell and is trapped in an illusion?
It wasn't until Xu Yeyue suddenly flew up into the air and stood in the void that he believed Xu Yeyue's words.
"Moon, what you just said was actually true? 547" The Ghost King's voice trembled.
Xu Yeyue smugly hummed, "Of course. I also listened to Brother Taixuan's sermon and sealed those things in my sea of consciousness. When I become a Celestial Immortal, I can unseal them, and then our Xu family..."
Who knows, maybe even a great immortal will emerge from here!
"What a great opportunity!"
The Ghost King's composure vanished long ago. "This is simply an earth-shattering opportunity!"
He connected with all the heavens, possessing countless immortal scriptures and elixirs, and at just the right time, he heard a great immortal preach.
The moon's good fortune is simply unimaginable.
"So, you've been cultivating outside these past two days?" the Ghost King asked.
Xu Yeyue nodded: "Yes. This is such a rare opportunity, how could I possibly waste it?"
“Moon is right,” the Ghost King nodded. “Then why did you come back today? Is there something you need?”
"Can't I go home if there's nothing wrong?" Xu Yeyue protested. "Even if there's nothing wrong, I still want to go home so that Father can cultivate together."
"Yes, yes, yes," the Ghost King laughed. "Father is wrong."
“However, speaking of matters, there is an important matter I need to discuss with Father.” Xu Yeyue’s eyes flickered. “There is a Zhu Yuanzhang in the chat group, who is related to our Emperor…”
They share the same status; he wants to see our Emperor.
"Meet?" The Ghost King asked in surprise. "Mutual appreciation?"
“No.” Xu Yeyue shook her head. “It’s because our world’s emperor made him lose face, so he probably wants to get back at him.”
"A great loss of face?" The Ghost King asked, puzzled.
Xu Yeyue then recounted the contents of the novel.
Fortunately, the novel is an abridged version, containing only the story, so it sounds relatively normal.
The Ghost King, upon hearing this, suddenly understood: "So that's how it is. I never imagined that His Majesty would ultimately be defeated by the Demonic Sect. Alas... Zhu Yuanzhang from other worlds, seeing this, would indeed feel..."
I'm unhappy.
"Yes," Xu Yeyue nodded, "Should I say yes?"
The Ghost King pondered, "Moon, tell me more about the relationships among everyone in the chat group, so I can make a decision."
"Yes." Xu Yeyue nodded and then shared the information she had gathered.
The Ghost King's eyes shone brightly: "There are so many emperors in the chat group, yet they are all very disciplined. It seems they care a great deal about the Dao Lord's opinion. We can agree to this; with the Dao Lord's approval..."
They would absolutely not dare to act recklessly.
"Otherwise, you just need to go to the group chat and cry, and they'll be in big trouble."
Xu Yeyue asked, puzzled, "Then what did he want to do when he met our emperor? Was it just to vent his anger by cursing a few words?"
“Moon is thinking too simply.” The Ghost King shook his head. “A few words of scolding are not the point. He probably just wants to cooperate with Zhu Yuanzhang of our world.”
"Cooperation?" Xu Yeyue asked in confusion. "Isn't it about cooperating with me?"
The Ghost King laughed and said, "Do you have a desire for power?"
"no!"
"And me?"
"nor."
"So, he wants to establish connections with His Majesty first, and then discuss things with us," the Ghost King laughed. "These emperors, their ideas are never simple. His Majesty's answer..."
"Yes, we agree. Let's discuss it further; wouldn't that greatly increase the success rate?"
“Indeed!” Xu Yeyue nodded. “Neither my father nor I have ever thought about becoming emperor, nor have we ever thought about rebelling. If His Majesty intends to cooperate with them, we certainly will not object.”
Zhu Yuanzhang must have read novels and figured out our nature; he's waiting here! How cunning!
The Ghost King laughed, "It's normal for someone to be cunning. Otherwise, how could an ordinary person become emperor!"
Xu Yeyue asked, "So, should we agree?"
"I agree." The Ghost King nodded slightly. "However, we cannot compromise on the contract. We must not skimp on the benefits that are due to the Xu family."
Xu Yeyue nodded: "Mm."
"Also, you can talk to those two girls, Zhuang Qingshuang and Bai Fanghua," the Ghost King added, "and see if they want to go to the Great Luo Heaven."
"Ah..." Xu Yeyue was speechless. "Father wants me to be a madam? I won't do it!"
"It's fine if you don't want to do it," the Ghost King waved his hand. "Do you think Zhu Yuanzhang would give up using beauties to please the Dao Lord? Once he knows about the chat group and the Dao Lord's existence, he'll do it too."
Yes, but when the time comes, it won't be the Xu family that will show their face to Daojun, but the Zhu family.
Xu Yeyue fell silent.
This is something only an emperor could do.
The chance to become an immortal, the destiny of a powerful Great Luo Immortal—this is an irresistible temptation for mortal emperors.
“I will try,” Xu Yeyue sighed. “However, Father should talk to Bai Fanghua. I don’t want to have anything to do with that demonic witch.”
