Chapter 2000: Ghost Hunter Emperor
Chapter 2000: Chapter 2000: Ghost Hunter Emperor
"Scoundrels, a bounty and wanted notice?" The Ghost Tiger Hall Master’s face turned cold.
"Within Guisha City, who dares to hunt us?"
"A bunch of nobodies dare to cause us trouble?" The Ghost Leopard Hall Master sneered disdainfully.
Though there were many Ghost Hunters around, there were few Legendary Martial Artists, only a handful.
The rest were merely Supreme Realm Martial Artists.
"What do you think?" a Ghost Hunter sneered.
"Before long, Ghost Hunters from all over Guisha City will swarm in."
"Rather than being hacked to pieces by then, it’s better to let us finish you quickly now. We can give you a swift end."
At that moment.
Several more figures flickered into appearance.
Each figure radiated a powerful aura, undoubtedly experts above the level of legends.
"Two Hall Masters, they might not measure up, but what about when we join the fray?"
The newcomers were all elderly men.
The faces of the two Hall Masters changed slightly upon seeing these people, "Three Four-star Ghost Hunters, and a Five-star Ghost Hunter."
Xiao Yi did not recognize these four people.
In the Central Region, with so many martial artists, he naturally couldn’t know them all.
Especially those old monsters who had disappeared for over ten thousand years and those who kept a low profile with little fame.
But the two Hall Masters, of course, knew the renowned Ghost Hunters within Guisha City.
The three Four-star Ghost Hunters were all Twenty Thousand Dao experts.
And that Five-star Ghost Hunter was a Forty Thousand Dao expert, on the same level as the Ghost Tiger Hall Master.
Adding nearly a thousand Ghost Hunters around.
With so many fierce people jointly attacking Ghost Leaf Hall, Ghost Leaf Hall would turn to rubble with severe casualties in no time.
"Within ten breaths, either surrender or die." The elder at the forefront had already issued the final warning.
At that moment, a hoarse and cold voice echoed as well.
"Within ten breaths, either leave, or none of you will walk out alive."
"Hmm?" Each Ghost Hunter turned to look at the black-robed martial artist beside the two Hall Masters.
"Who are you?" The four elders all looked at Xiao Yi.
The speaker was none other than Xiao Yi.
Whoosh... whoosh... whoosh...
At that moment, four more figures appeared out of thin air.
The four elders narrowed their eyes, "Ghost Hand, Blood Sea, Blood Rain Blade, and Cloud Catcher."
"A bunch of blind bats," Blood Rain Blade Lin Wan said coldly, "Don’t you recognize Xiao Xun, Vice Hall Master?"
"If you want to fight, we’re here to accompany you." Shen Xinghe was always terse.
"Xiao Xun? Black Robe?" The surrounding Ghost Hunters were initially stunned, then shocked.
Even those four elders subconsciously took a few steps back together.
"Vice Hall Master Xiao Xun, pardon us, the old man takes his leave." The four elders cupped their fists together and instantly disappeared.
The surrounding Ghost Hunters also changed their expressions and retreated.
In just a moment, the thousand-plus Ghost Hunters full of vigor had retreated entirely.
Xiao Yi frowned. Did he have such prestige in Guisha City?
Whoosh...
Fang Shushu’s figure flashed and appeared.
"The ones who issued the bounty and wanted notice against our three halls must have been the Cold Evil Sect."
The Ghost Tiger Hall Master nodded, "It’s definitely those bastards."
The Ghost Leopard Hall Master then said coldly, "To have the task announced, the price the Cold Evil Sect offered must be substantial."
In the Guisha City Lord Mansion, tasks can be issued.
Tasks don’t ask for the reason, only for the reward.
Even if it involves hunting the same Ghost Hunters, it’s allowed.
However, the harder the task, the higher the cost.
"We will also go to the City Lord’s Mansion to issue a bounty and wanted notice." The Ghost Tiger Hall Master shouted coldly.
"Our combined strength of the three halls is not inferior to the Cold Evil Sect."
"Good, let’s go." The Ghost Leopard Hall Master was equally furious.
The two of them flickered away.
Fang Shushu hurriedly followed.
Xiao Yi frowned, also flickering to follow.
The four arrived at the Guisha City Lord Mansion.
When they reached the Task Department, before the two Hall Masters could issue the task, the surrounding Ghost Hunters already showed fierce looks.
To these Ghost Hunters, the heads of the three Hall Masters are now very valuable.
Meanwhile, at the Task Department, a middle-aged man was speaking to the staff there.
"Cold Evil Sect Master, it’s indeed you." The two Hall Masters’ eyes turned cold.
Clearly, that middle-aged man was the renowned Cold Evil Sect Master within Guisha City.
The Cold Evil Sect Master was a Fifty Thousand Dao expert.
Not only in Guisha City, but even in the Central Region, he is a top-tier legendary figure.
"You three dare to come to the Guisha City Lord Mansion?" The Cold Evil Sect Master sneered.
"Well, it saves this Sect Master and the top Ghost Hunters in Guisha City a lot of trouble."
"I’ll just kill you three here..."
Before the Cold Evil Sect Master could finish his sentence, whoosh... a figure appeared swiftly.
The figure glanced at Xiao Yi and the others, quickly moved to the Cold Evil Sect Master’s side, and whispered a few words.
"What? Xiao Xun?" The Cold Evil Sect Master’s sinister gaze stared at Xiao Yi.
"Black Robe Xiao Xun." The Cold Evil Sect Master squinted.
"So what about Xiao Xun." At that moment, two more figures appeared, accompanied by a loud shout.
The figures were Lingg Hong and Heu Youu.
"Who does he think the Ghost Hunting King is?"
"Hmm?" The surrounding Ghost Hunters were suddenly shocked, "Aren’t those the newly promoted Heavenly Talents of the Cold Evil Sect, Divine Archer Lingg Hong, and Blood Shadow Heu Youu?"
"Do they also have a grudge with Black Robe?"
Lingg Hong and Heu Youu turned out to be from the Cold Evil Sect as well.
"Xiao Xun." The two of them walked to the Cold Evil Sect Master’s side, coldly looked at Xiao Yi.
"A few days ago, we spared your life, and today, you dare be presumptuous."
Xiao Yi, hearing this, had a look of disdain in his cold eyes.
Spared his life?
That was just because Guisha City had rules; no fighting between Ghost Hunters half a month before the Guisha Festival.
Of course, even if those two and that elder had acted that day, Xiao Yi would not have feared them.
At this moment, Lingg Hong stepped forward a few steps, staring at Xiao Yi, "Xiao Xun, I warned you."
"Nosy people usually don’t live long."
"I also warned you that your title as the Ghost Hunting King is nothing."
"Today, you brought this upon yourself."
"Noisy." Xiao Yi had no interest in wasting half a sentence and directly slapped.
Lingg Hong, however, remained unafraid, shouting, "Welcome, Master."
Crack...
The space suddenly froze.
Xiao Yi’s hand, which he swung, was instantly immobilized, unable to move.
An elder with hands behind his back slowly emerged from the space.
He was the master of Lingg Hong and Heu Youu.
"Sixty Thousand Dao expert." This time, Xiao Yi closely observed the elder and sensed his aura more accurately.
Of course, Xiao Yi couldn’t accurately sense the realm of these legendary experts.
He was just making an educated guess by comparing the aura strengths of the various legendary experts he had encountered.
"Ghost Hunter Emperor, Senior." The Cold Evil Sect Master bowed respectfully to the elder.
"Ghost Hunter Emperor?" Ghost Tiger and Ghost Leopard Hall Masters’ faces drastically changed.
"Ghost Hunter Emperor?" Xiao Yi also squinted upon hearing this.
The elder ignored the three and walked directly to the task counter, saying in a deep voice to the staff, "From today on, revoke Xiao Xun’s status as Ghost Hunting King."
"Cancel all the tasks he accepted."
"Within an hour, expel him from Guisha City. If he dares defy, execute immediately."
...
Third update.
In truth, I deliberately didn’t update last night just to adjust the update time back to noon and afternoon.
Of course, I don’t know how long I can sustain this; when it comes to circadian rhythm, it is unpredictable, but I’ll do my best.
And these three updates are from yesterday.
Today’s three updates will be released before the afternoon.
