The Legendary Son-in-law of the Emperor-Chapter 1593 - 1590: Departure

"Is it just an illusion?"

Ye Xuan withdrew his gaze, squinting slightly.

It couldn’t possibly be an illusion.

The perception of his Emperor Soul had long recovered to a terrifying level, making it difficult for anyone spying on him to escape his detection.

Someone was definitely spying on him just now.

Moreover, the strength of the one spying was extremely formidable.

But in this Ghost Land, who else could achieve something like this? 𝑓𝘳𝑒𝑒𝓌𝘦𝘣𝘯ℴ𝑣𝘦𝑙.𝘤𝑜𝑚

Or could it be that it comes from outside the Ghost Land?

"Could it be that old thing?"

Ye Xuan thought of a certain existence, and his expression darkened instantly.

But according to Bai Zhiyu’s report, that old thing was still in slumber and should remain asleep for quite some time, not waking up at this moment.

After pondering for a while, Ye Xuan took out a black willow branch.

This was precisely the Old Ghost Liu Tree branch.

Ye Xuan hadn’t used this item in a long time.

As his own strength grew more formidable, he seldom needed to use such external aids.

"Is it you, Old Ghost Liu Tree..."

Ye Xuan murmured softly.

It had to be said, Ye Xuan’s intuition was extremely accurate, as he guessed the Old Ghost Liu Tree right away.

However, Ye Xuan couldn’t be certain and planned to question it further when they met again later.

Spying on him for no reason, how could there not be a price to pay?

"Heh."

Ye Xuan grinned and put the Old Ghost Liu Tree branch away.

"The Ghost Land hasn’t closed yet, why are you in such a hurry to leave?"

Qingming Yurou had already resigned to her fate and stopped struggling.

However, upon seeing the path Ye Xuan was taking, she couldn’t help but voice her doubts.

Although the Ghost Land had been open for eleven months, there was no sign of it closing.

This allowed many Ghost Clans to enter the Ghost Land afterward.

As long as they were below the Great Sage Realm, any Ghost Clan could enter the Ghost Land.

Of course, there were also the first batch of Ghost Clans who reached the Ghost Land, and after obtaining enough opportunities, they chose to leave the Ghost Land to spread the news.

This led to even more Ghost Clans learning about the abundant opportunities within the Ghost Land.

The word spread wider, and more Ghost Clans entered the Ghost Land.

But the Ghost Land was vast, and even with so many Ghost Clans entering, they rarely encountered each other.

With each Ghost Clan focused on gathering more opportunities and reluctant to engage in conflicts, it was under these circumstances that many Ghost Clans entered, yet Ye Xuan chose to leave, which puzzled Qingming Yurou.

"In at most a month, all the Ghost Clans who entered here will die; I don’t have the time to watch them meet their doom."

Ye Xuan stated unhurriedly.

Qingming Yurou’s face changed upon hearing this: "How do you know they’ll all die in a month?"

Ye Xuan didn’t answer Qingming Yurou.

Could he really tell Qingming Yurou that the Ghost Land’s revival was aimed at devouring the Ghost Clans?

Back then, Ye Xuan intended to ruin the Ghost Land’s plan only to nurture the Dao Formation Pill.

Now that the Dao Formation Pill was nurtured, Ye Xuan couldn’t be bothered with whatever plan the Ghost Land had.

Ye Xuan’s goal in the Ghost Land had been achieved, and how the Ghost Land and Nine Netherworld Phoenix played afterward was not his concern.

"Do tell!"

Qingming Yurou pressed urgently.

"Are you really a direct lineage of the Qingming Ghost Clan?"

Ye Xuan didn’t slow his pace but asked this question.

Qingming Yurou didn’t understand what Ye Xuan meant and frowned, saying, "Speak plainly."

Ye Xuan smiled and said, "You’re quite foolish."

"Why do you think the Ghost Land opened only for Ghost Clans below the Great Sage Realm to enter, but the powers established by your three major Ghost Clans all came, even sending several old-timers?"

Qingming Yurou frowned, "Isn’t it because there are so many resources in the Ghost Land, and battles could happen after leaving the Ghost Land?"

That’s what she always thought.

Ye Xuan explained unhurriedly, "That’s just one part; the more important part is that the old-timers of your three major Ghost Clans fundamentally fear the Ghost Land."

"As for why they fear, it’s what I mentioned just now."

Upon hearing this, Qingming Yurou still found it hard to believe, frowning, "Do you have any evidence?"

Ye Xuan smiled and said, "My words are the evidence."

Qingming Yurou was left speechless, but she knew Ye Xuan’s prowess; even if his words weren’t entirely credible, they held certain reference value.

Since Ye Xuan was taking her out of the Ghost Land, she decided she’d ask her sister about it later.

"By the way, you haven’t told me what my value is yet?"

Qingming Yurou recalled something and asked again.

Ye Xuan replied calmly, "You and that little girl Qingming Yuchan are sisters, right?"

Qingming Yurou snorted softly, "So what if we are?"

Ye Xuan shook his head slightly, "It’s nothing, just that I see an opportunity."

Qingming Yurou instinctively asked, "What opportunity?"

Ye Xuan remained silent.

He naturally wouldn’t tell Qingming Yurou that he saw potential in Qingming Yuchan, her sister.

Another potential Empress.

In the past, Ye Xuan would have tested her thoroughly before accepting her under his wing.

But in today’s world, the situation was very ambiguous.

Whether before or after the Heavenly Dao Suppression ends, Ye Xuan needed ample preparation.

He needed more people with potential.

Of course, this wasn’t to deal with the Double Emperors.

Rather, it was to prepare for a future battle.

Ye Xuan could see that the little girl Qingming Yuchan seemed polite and courteous to everyone, but in reality, she only genuinely cared about Qingming Yurou.

By bringing Qingming Yurou out, Ye Xuan didn’t expect Qingming Yuchan to surrender immediately; it was just a good start.

As for why not directly control with the Emperor Soul.

If he did, no matter how much potential Qingming Yuchan had, she’d never become an Empress in her lifetime.

In this world, there’s never been an enslaved Great Emperor!

Over the ages, Ye Xuan had already conducted such experiments.

Therefore, he always taught as a teacher rather than controlling and using the metaphoric infusion of wisdom.

That at most could only nurture a Quasi-Emperor Realm lackey.

Nothing more.

Including Little Qiankun, only because he followed Ye Xuan from before he transformed, he called Ye Xuan master, rather than being controlled by Ye Xuan.

Before long, Ye Xuan returned to the starting point of the Ghost Land.

The Ancient Giant Mountain.

Behind them were layers of mist, obscuring everything from view.

But by passing through here, one could leave the Ghost Land.

Ye Xuan released Qingming Yurou and then stepped into the mist.

Qingming Yurou hesitated for a moment and finally gritted her teeth and followed him out.

Mainly, the words Ye Xuan spoke worried her, and she planned to discuss them with her sister once outside.

Ye Xuan and Qingming Yurou emerged from the Ghost Land, and upon looking ahead, they saw pavilions and towers established outside the Ancient Giant Mountain, and even Ghost Clan experts giving teachings.

A scene of harmony.

The prolonged opening of the Ghost Land led to those awaiting outside, and the various Ghost Clan experts settled down there.
