Chapter 221: The Ghost King and the Crown Prince Hidden in the Palace

This time, Hua Cheng's smile was genuine, and even brighter. The Imperial Master was stunned, raised his hand, pointed at him and said: "... You, you, you? That? You are that???"


His fingers and voice were trembling. Hua Cheng was happy and silent, but his face was clearly filled with: Yes, I am the star of misfortune who almost burned down the entire Taicang Mountain!

“…”

The Imperial Master turned around and asked, "Your Highness, what's going on? Can you explain?"

Xie Lian spread his hands and said with a wry smile, “…that’s…what happened.”


The Imperial Master was shocked. He slammed the back of his right hand against the palm of his left hand dozens of times, and finally spoke after a long while: "Look, look, look, look, look, I told you! I told you that the Desperate Ghost King is not easy to mess with! He has been after you since you were little, and his ghost won't go away! For eight hundred years, eight hundred years! He has been secretly coveting you for eight hundred years, terrible, too terrible! My calculations are so accurate!"

Xie Lian said, “Forget it, Master, let’s not talk about this anymore…”

He thought, "You haven't seen the overwhelming number of statues in the Ten Thousand Gods Cave yet." If he had seen them, he would have regarded Hua Cheng as a scourge, a mad monster, and would have held Xie Lian under his elbow and ran away. The Imperial Master had not yet recovered from his shock, and said, "No, he is too horrible, it's unbelievable, his obsession and scheming are so deep! Your Highness, you must be careful, you will easily suffer if you do this, be careful that he deceives you!"

Xie Lian said, “San Lang won’t do that.”

Hua Cheng also said calmly: "You think too much. I would never lie to Your Highness."


The Imperial Master leaned over and argued with him, "You cunning young man, don't think I can't see it. Aren't you relying on the fact that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince doesn't know much about this? Now tell me in front of me, how do you borrow magic power? How many ways are there to borrow? How did you borrow it? What did you tell His Royal Highness?"

Huacheng: “…”

Xie Lian started yelling randomly, “Hahahaha, alright, alright! Let’s just forget about it. No matter what, as long as I’ve borrowed it, it’s fine! Hahaha, it’s all the same, all the same!”

If he continued, he would flutter about like a drowning and cooked duck. Xie Lian suddenly became serious and said, "So, let's talk business. Now he has locked us all up here and hasn't made a move yet. What does he want to do?"


Hua Cheng said: "I want to give you another question."

Xie Lian asked, “How else can we set it up?”

The Imperial Master said, "That's hard to say. To be honest, anything is possible. Your Highness, don't change the subject! I'll give you a piece of advice. Don't let lust blind you or be deceived by sweet words. I think he..."

At this time, Hua Cheng suddenly said in a deep voice: "Brother, someone is coming."

The Imperial Master said, “Don’t try to fool me. I’m not as easy to fool as the Crown Prince…” But Xie Lian said, “Master, he’s not lying to you. Someone really is coming. Let’s hide first!” After saying that, he and Hua Cheng tapped the ground with their soles of their feet, and the two of them floated lightly onto the roof beam and hid.


Not long after, there was a chaotic sound of footsteps outside the house. A man kicked the door open and laughed triumphantly: "Hahahahahahahahahaha, the heaven, what's that? You're still going to be trampled under my feet!"

“…”

“…”

“…”

Upon hearing this voice, the three of them were speechless.

I saw a man in blue clothes walking in from outside the house. It was none other than Qi Rong who I hadn't seen for many days!

It seems that Jun Wu not only locked up all the priests, but also released all the demons and monsters. These things are actually wandering around the streets of Xianjing. It is so chaotic and weird!

The Imperial Master had not expected it to be Qi Rong, and froze. Qi Rong pointed at him and cursed, "Damn Imperial Master, damn old man, you're just undying! Hehe! You looked down on me and refused to accept me as your disciple, so what's going on now? You've been slapped in the face, this is retribution, this is not a good ending! You deserve it!"


A timid little head popped out from behind him. It was Gu Zi. Gu Zi was probably entering such a magnificent building for the first time. He opened his eyes wide and looked around. He seemed to want to touch the jade floor tiles secretly but didn't dare to. Qi Rong said proudly, "Did you see, my dear son? This is the heaven. Now, it's your father's territory!"


Gu Zi was surprised and said, "Really, Dad? This place is so big..."

Qi Rong said: "Of course! If you don't believe me, just look at me. Bah! Bah! Bah! I spit here casually, who dares to say anything to me?"

National Division:"……"

Gu Zi hesitated for a moment, but still whispered, "Dad, it's not good to spit everywhere. This place is so beautiful and clean, it will get dirty."

Qi Rong is stuck.

The Imperial Master couldn't help but said, "Look at you, how do you teach children? You are so old but you don't know how to set a good example. The children are more sensible than you!"

Being criticized by both sides at the same time, Qi Rong became angry and jumped up and cursed: "Old man, you know nothing! Why are you pretending to be an elder? You are not allowed to teach me! And you! How dare you talk to your father like that, you unfilial son!"


Gu Zi was scolded by him, and was so wronged that he dared not say a word. After Qi Rong finished scolding, he wiped the saliva he had just spit on his feet guiltily, pretending that nothing had happened, and dragged Gu Zi out while scolding. Before leaving, he wrote a line of big words on the most conspicuous wall of the Lingwen Hall - "Qi Rong, the first ghost king of the three realms, was here."

When Qi Rong left the Lingwen Hall, the blue tumbler that Xie Lian had put away in his sleeve fell down and landed in front of the wall with the big words written on it and the saliva marks that Qi Rong had scribbled away. It swayed around like it was mad. Xie Lian and Hua Cheng also fell down. Xie Lian picked up the tumbler and put it away again. The Imperial Master shook his head and said, "Little Mirror King really has...his taste has remained the same for hundreds of years, and he hasn't made any progress at all."

Hua Cheng glanced at the wall, not even bothering to give it a disdainful look, and only commented with one word: "Ugly."

The Imperial Master finally agreed with him, and with his hands folded up in his sleeves, he said, "It's extremely ugly. Over the years, I've never seen uglier characters, except for a messy couplet at the entrance of a ghost gambling house in the ghost market. The characters on that couplet were dozens of times uglier than this one!"

Huacheng: “………………”

Xie Lian tried hard to smile and said, “Hahahaha, Master, I’ve also seen the couplet you mentioned. I think it’s pretty good. It has its own style. I quite like it.”

The Imperial Master said in surprise, "Your Highness, how can you say such a thing? Your calligraphy was taught by a famous master, don't you know what is ugly and what is beautiful? That handwriting is so ugly that it can't be saved even by the best teacher. What do you like about it? Is your taste not damaged?"

Xie Lian: “Hahahahahaha Master, please stop talking!!!”


Suddenly, Hua Cheng said, "Brother, Jun Wu has taken action. He may be going to look for you and is heading to Xianle Palace."

The Imperial Master was startled and said, "What! Then Your Highness, you have to go back quickly! Xueyu Tanhua, you should also hide well, and don't let him find out that you are already caught. The mountain monsters of my three friends are now being suppressed by him in the territory of Tonglu Mountain, and they are trying to break free. No matter what action you take, you will have to wait until they break free to be more certain. Remember, don't act rashly!"

Xie Lian naturally understood. After bidding farewell to the Imperial Master, the two of them left the Lingwen Palace and sneaked away at high speed, avoiding countless guards and demons. They were only four blocks away from the Xianle Palace. At this moment, Hua Cheng said again, "Brother, he is only one block away from the Xianle Palace."

Xie Lian: “!”

He touched the reconnaissance silver butterfly, and a picture flashed before his eyes. Sure enough, Jun Wu was walking alone with his hands behind his back. In less than a hundred steps, he would see the gate of Xianle Palace.

What should I do? Either I have to go back after Jun Wu, or I will run into him. You know, the guards at the gate of Xianle Palace are still under Huacheng's control!

Suddenly, the door of the temple behind Jun Wu opened, and a man stood behind the door and said, "Emperor."

Jun Wu paused, turned around, and asked, "Rain Master? What's the matter?"

It was the Rain Master who stopped him. Perhaps because Jun Wu had instructed that outsiders were not allowed to approach the Rain Master's Mansion, no other monsters were seen except the guards. She said politely, "Emperor, there is something I forgot to give you. Could you please stay for a while?"

Jun Wu nodded and said, "Okay." As expected, he turned around. Xie Lian breathed a sigh of relief and said, "Thank you, Master Rain!" He decided to go back and burn eighteen incense sticks for Master Rain!!!

Taking advantage of this opportunity, the two flew across four streets and returned to Xianle Palace before Jun Wu. When they entered the palace, Hua Cheng waved his hand and dispelled the spell cast by the guards at the door. They were confused for only a moment and did not notice anything wrong. Xie Lian ran back to the inner hall, but before he could breathe a sigh of relief, his face changed again. Because the guards at the door had notified him again.

Jun Wu is here so soon!

It seemed that the Rain Master didn't stop him for long. The two exchanged glances, and Hua Cheng turned behind the curtain and disappeared. Xie Lian jumped onto the bed and pretended to sleep, with his back to the outside. Just as he pulled up the quilt, Jun Wu came in.

He slowly walked to the table, was silent for a while, and said, "Xianle, have you rested?"

Xie Lian did not answer. Jun Wu seemed to sit down at the table, put something in his hand on the table, and poured himself a cup of tea.

He said gently, "Xianle, I asked you to stay here for your own good. If you just listen to me on many things, the final result will be much better."

Xie Lian did not turn over, still with his back to him. Otherwise, he would have thought of what the Imperial Master had told him, and his heart would have been in turmoil, and he would not have known what expression to use to face Jun Wu, who was still so gentle at the moment.

The next moment, Jun Wu was behind him, and said slowly: "However, not only did you sneak out to play, but you also brought someone back and hid in the house. It seems that you really don't listen to me."
