“[The Southern Underworld’s Langlang City was completely a fake address made up by Ye Yu.]”
“[The reason he didn’t dare to report the name of the Bitter Cold City]”
“[was not because Ye Yu was scared.]”
“[But because he didn’t want Ye Dongfang and Ying Naiyan to be harassed.]”
“[This plan was a major move — success would be a leap to the top, failure meant quietly slipping away.]”
“[So everything had to be thought out perfectly.]”
“[Strictly speaking, in the Western Underworld, Fuliu Pavilion was not considered a top-tier ghost sect.]”
“[Its sect master was a ghost being at the Underworld Ghost Realm.]”
“[Its strength hovered only around second-tier to quasi-top-tier levels.]”
“[At times, being called a pushover was really insulting.]”
“[But honestly, Ye Yu never thought about it that way.]”
“[Because he was busy, running over ten operations a day.]”
“[Exactly, Ye Yu’s plan this time was to cast a wide net and catch many fish.]”
“[Across the entire Western Underworld, except for those top-tier ghost sects, all other ghost sects had been thoroughly raided by him.]”
“[And the operations were very professional, only targeting the treasure pavilions.]”
“[To make things easier, they would uproot the entire building and take it away.]”
“[They played rough and unreasonable.]”
“[Before leaving, they always declared their name and number.]”
“[This was to establish their reputation in that place.]”
“[Then they would quietly wait for the matter to ferment.]”
“[Five days later.]”
“[This grand operation finally came to an end.]”
“[And the ghost sects of the entire Western Underworld were thrown into complete chaos.]”
“[Originally, each had been hiding quietly, not wanting their sect to lose face, quietly searching for the whereabouts of Ye Yu from Langlang City.]”
“[But later they found other ghost sect disciples flying all over the sky as well.]”
“[So they sensed something was wrong and began communicating.]”
“[Hey, brother, what are you busy with outside every day? Tell me!]”
“[Why do you care what I’m busy with? You’re busy outside every day too, why don’t you tell me?]”
“[Don’t rush off. I’ll tell you secretly, our sect’s treasure pavilion was robbed!]”
“[What? Your treasure pavilion was robbed too?]”
“[W-what do you mean? Could it be that you are too?]”
“[Of course. A ghost being from Langlang City named Ye Yu!]”
“[Damn, isn’t that a coincidence? He’s the one robbing our ghost sect too!]”
“[After exchanging information, every ghost sect disciple’s expression became extremely intense.]”
“[Damn it, could this guy have robbed all the ghost sects?]”
“[That’s a bit too much!]”
“[Where the hell did this fierce outsider come from? No, we {N•o•v•e•l•i•g•h•t} have to report this immediately to the sect masters!]”
“[Two days later, dozens of ghost sect masters gathered to jointly discuss solutions to this incident.]”
“[The scene was extremely lively.]”
“[Laughter echoed everywhere.]”
“[Hey, Elder Guo, you’re here too? Brother Wang, you’re here as well.]”
“[Get lost, what greetings? You’re here too, what’s there to brag about?]”
“[Am I bragging? No, I’m just amused. A few days ago I met Elder Guo and asked if there was anything wrong. That guy was stubborn and insisted there wasn’t. But now? The truth is out.]”
“[What truth? Watch your tone or I’ll make you regret it.]”
“[Hey, I’m giving you face. If you want to fight, come on!]”
“[As time went on, the scene grew louder, some ghost beings even prepared to fight on the spot.]”
“[But they were stopped.]”
“[Finally, the strongest sect master Ma Qianshan of the Youming Temple stood up and calmed the situation.]”
“[He first made some formal remarks, then began listing Ye Yu’s crimes, declaring everyone must find him and take back the treasure pavilion.]”
“[Otherwise, the entire Western Underworld would lose face.]”
“[Upon hearing this, Yan Tong, sect master of the Nurturing Tide Valley, was the first to rise and respond, declaring Ye Yu must be severely punished and the lost treasures recovered.]”
“[At that moment, Elder Guo, who had just wanted to fight Yan Tong, couldn’t hold back.]”
“[He bluntly said, not to mention your Nurturing Tide Valley is a poor backwater with nothing good.]”
“[Even if there was, you’ve already given it to your new favorites. Everyone in your sect knows that the treasure pavilion is just an empty shell, and yet you’re so anxious?]”
“[Yan Tong roared angrily: You’re talking nonsense! My treasure pavilion contains ten top-grade ghost immortal weapons and 200,000 top-grade ghost immortal stones. As for heavenly materials and earthly treasures, countless beyond measure.]”
“[If all were stolen by Ye Yu, I’d show you what it means to be rich and powerful!]”
“[Elder Guo sneered: Ten top-grade ghost immortal weapons? 200,000 top-grade ghost immortal stones? Do you even know what that means? It’s enough to buy your life. Even if you’re lying, at least use your brain.]”
“[Yan Tong said sternly: I don’t use my brain... Get lost, don’t talk nonsense. Anyway, my treasures were stolen by Ye Yu! Believe it or not, when I find Ye Yu, I’ll force him to hand everything over!]”
“[Hearing this, other ghost sect masters also started boasting about how many treasures they lost.]”
“[Of course, all their reports were exaggerated.]”
“[Just to try to profit later.]”
“[After all, Ye Yu robbed so many ghost sect treasure pavilions in just a few days; there had to be good loot.]”
“[You say it’s yours, I say it’s mine!]”
“[Anyway, report it first. Whoever steals it is whoever’s.]”
“[False accusation?]”
“[Not important. They just want more benefits.]”
“[Exactly, this was an important node in Ye Yu’s plan.]”
“[Human nature is greed.]”
“[Even ghost beings are no different.]”
“[Who doesn’t want more?]”
“[Exploiting this psychology is why Ye Yu pulled off such a big move.]”
“[If successful, it would be a launchpad for him.]”
“[But simply arousing the greed of the ghost sect masters wasn’t enough.]”
“[He had to make them frame and slander him openly.]”
“[Whispering behind his back wouldn’t count if Ye Yu didn’t know.]”
“[So.]”
“[Seven days later.]”
“[Ye Yu left a message spreading across the Western Underworld, claiming that at midnight tomorrow he would appear by the Zhuoyang River, and then anyone could repay grievances or seek revenge.]”
“[Once the news broke.]”
“[The ghost beings in the Western Underworld all boiled with excitement.]”
“[They speculated on the truthfulness of the message.]”
“[Finally, Ma Qianshan, sect master of Youming Temple, stepped forward to say, true or false, we’ll know when we see!]”
