Chapter 673
Ghost Gates Territory
Grandpa Meng floored Granny Meng, who was wheezing, and stepped on her. He reattached his arms after they automatically dropped off the walking stick. He didnt need as much as an herb or pill to reattach his arm, and there were no traces he ever lost them.
Im a man of my word. Pour the bloody soup onto Netherworld Bridge, and youll be able to enter, instructed Grandpa Meng, dragging Granny Meng off to a corner to sit and recover.
Mu Yu, who had his death qi returned to him, responded, Nice to know youre a man of your word.
Relieved he didnt have to fight a battle hed lose for sure, Mu Yu woke up Gui Congliang and then erased his memory. He pinched his nose as he went up to fetch the bloody soup and poured it onto the bridge. As promised, he didnt enter Twins Corpse Field when he crossed the bridge again.
Kid, what are you sneaking into Ghost Gate for? I suggest you think twice about sneaking in.
I have business with them. Shouldnt you be more worried they come after you while you stay here? responded Mu Yu, worried Grandpa Mengs actions would drive Ghost Gate to increase security around Walk-in Heart Genesis.
They wont come here. Typically, only new disciples would come this way. If I take her away from here, they will be alerted. If you can get out before I leave, youre lucky, answered Grandpa Meng, shutting his eyes to recuperate.
Mu Yu climbed the stairs and exited via a grave. He cast an illusion formation on himself then began scanning the stone path with weeds growing. Not a ray of light could get through the ghost qi shrouding the sky. With not even a tree around, Mu Yu had very few means of hiding.
Mu Yu, what do you reckon would happen if we used death qi to take all of the twins skeletons out of Twins Corpse Field? Xiaoshuai asked.
I had the same question. If we do, I think Ghost Gates members wont be able to use their twins in combat. Lets give it a try when we return to the present. Theres no point trying it now.
Where do we start searching for Walk-in Heart Genesis? inquired the dragon vine, watching Ghost Gates disciples going about their own business. More importantly, we dont even know how it looks.
We need to wait for the thief. Theres no point stealing it in this world, replied Mu Yu, sitting down behind a relatively hidden rock. We can watch their reactions. If it was stolen, theyd be in uproar. Im sure Gui Ximing has already sneaked in. Since he knows where it is, we can try searching for him. The unsolvable problem is that not even he knows when it was stolen if he can be trusted so we have to play the waiting game.
How do we know who stole it when not even they know? questioned the dragon vine, still concerned.
We can try praying? We know the future, so we can prepare for the thief unlike them.
Im still trying to figure out how the thief is going to infiltrate Ghost Gate when we only managed to get in through sheer luck. I cant name anyone good enough to pull it off, opined the dragon vine.
You reckon it was Old White Beard?! suggested Xiaoshuai.
Shifu should already be in Celestial Prison. I cant imagine him pulling it off when his cultivation is constantly regressing.
Xie Bulao? Chen Tiandao? Xiaoshuai guessed?
Why do you keep guessing names of formation casters? Why not Ku Mu? Hes also a monster of a formation caster, expressed the dragon vine.
Mu Yu inherited everything Ku Mu had. If he had Walk-in Heart Genesis, wed already know, you dunce.
Lets not get ahead of ourselves. There are plenty of cultivators without any affiliations. We havent even accounted for Shadowless Sect. If you ask me, theyre capable enough and the biggest suspects. Im certain the thief is, at least, an Ascension Realm cultivator, Mu Yu voiced.
Xiaoshuai, who grew restless over the seven days of waiting for he liked to be active, questioned, Walk-in Heart Genesis wouldnt have been stolen a few days prior, would it?
Gui Congliang wouldve been aware if it was. I doubt theyve lost it when it still appears peaceful, disputed Mu Yu.
They were still at the outer perimeter of Ghost Gate. The main area of Ghost Gate was the huge crater at the centre of the plain that resembled the scene where a spherical boulder was dropped. They had yet to see any means of approaching the crater with a kilometre circumference when there were formations and patrols. It was pointless to sneak in there because the thief would have had to leave Walk-in Heart Genesis. By that logic, it made the most sense to camp the exit.
On the eighth day, there were more guards, and the atmosphere was tenser. They were preparing for a big ceremony that required lots of souls for a sacrificial summoning.
Ghost Gate must be bringing out Walk-in Heart Genesis for this ritual. That must be the perfect moment for the thief to pinch it! deduced Mu Yu.
