Chapter 421: Chapter 420: Immediately Deploy the Shadow, Investigate Something with Full Force

The Underworld.

The Central Grand Hall.

Ning Xuan looked at the Central Ghost Emperor. "It’s been so long. Why is there no news yet?"

The Central Ghost Emperor said with a smile, "Great Emperor, the Southern Ghost Emperor and the Eastern Ghost Emperor have joined forces. No matter how heaven-defying that kid is, he won’t be able to stir up any trouble. Just wait for the good news!"

Just as his voice fell, someone rushed in. The Central Ghost Emperor looked at the Great Emperor and said with a laugh, "See? Here comes the good news!"

Before he could finish, the messenger cried out urgently, "Reporting to the Fengdu Emperor! Our six million elite soldiers have all perished in Black Wind Valley! Not a single one escaped!"

Ning Xuan’s brow furrowed instantly.

The Central Ghost Emperor shot to his feet, rushed over to the messenger, and violently grabbed him by the collar, hoisting him up. He stared at the man and roared furiously, "What nonsense are you spouting? Our six million elite soldiers are incredibly powerful, and they were overseen by two Ghost Emperors! Who could possibly annihilate them? Are you daring to file a false military report?"

The messenger, voice trembling with fear, cried out, "My lord, I wouldn’t dare, even if you beat me to death! The six million elite soldiers all fell in Black Wind Valley, and neither of the Ghost Emperors returned. It’s the absolute truth!"

The Central Ghost Emperor froze on the spot. A moment later, his face paled as he said, "Could it be... that kid has already entered the Dao Realm? Otherwise, how could he possibly have taken down two Ghost Emperors?"

But Ning Xuan just chuckled coldly. "Entering the Dao Realm creates a huge disturbance. I would have sensed it long ago. Besides, he’s so young. How could he possibly enter the Dao Realm?"

The Central Ghost Emperor let out a long sigh of relief, but a moment later, his face filled with confusion. "If it wasn’t Ye Feng, I really can’t think of anyone else who could take down two Ghost Emperors at the same time!"

Ning Xuan said in a cold voice, "If I’m not mistaken, it must have been those old monsters from the Kunlun Sect."

"Those old monsters made a move?" The Central Ghost Emperor’s expression changed dramatically. "Those old monsters are all at the Dao Realm! How are we supposed to fight them?"

But Ning Xuan spoke calmly, "If they dared to come down from the mountain, they’ve already broken the rules. Someone will deal with them."

"The maintainers of the world’s rules... the Adjudicators?" The Central Ghost Emperor’s eyes lit up.

Ning Xuan spoke calmly, "Those few old monsters from Kunlun Mountain have some skill, but they are not worthy of challenging the Adjudicators!"

The Central Ghost Emperor’s eyes shone. He said urgently, "Great Emperor, let’s report this matter to the Adjudicators at once!"

But Ning Xuan shook his head. "If the Adjudicators find out about this, do you think that *thing* will still end up in our hands?"

The Central Ghost Emperor froze.

Ning Xuan took a sip of his tea and said nonchalantly, "So, there’s no rush. Immediately arrange for someone to go and investigate thoroughly for me. Find out exactly which old monster has come down. If it’s just one, I have no reason to fear him!"

The Central Ghost Emperor nodded quickly, picked up a phone, and made a call. "Deploy the Shadow unit immediately. I need you to investigate something with all your resources..."

Seeing the Central Ghost Emperor hang up, Ning Xuan spoke calmly, "One more thing. Ask the Young Miss if she has obtained the Kirin Set. With the Kirin Set’s enhancement, I wouldn’t fear even two of those old monsters..."

Just as Ning Xuan finished speaking, someone came in to report, "Reporting to the Fengdu Emperor, the Young Miss has returned."

Ning Xuan chuckled. "Speak of the devil. Quick, let the Young Miss in!"

Soon, a young woman walked into the hall.

If Ye Feng were here, he would have recognized her instantly. It was the Jade-Faced Asura.

The Jade-Faced Asura came before Ning Xuan and curtsied gracefully. "Father!"

Ning Xuan looked at the Jade-Faced Asura and asked urgently, "Xin’Er, did you get the Kirin Set?"

But a moment later, his brow furrowed. "Why are you in such a sorry state?"

The Jade-Faced Asura’s clothes were torn, and her face was covered in scratches. ℯℯ𝘭.

The Jade-Faced Asura looked at Ning Xuan and spoke with grief and indignation, "Father, that’s what I came to tell you. I had already obtained the Kirin Set, but I ran into Ye Feng. He took it from me by force, and I nearly died at his hands..."

"Damn him!" Ning Xuan’s face instantly turned ashen.

The Central Ghost Emperor, standing nearby, asked in surprise, "But wasn’t King Yama sent to retrieve you?"

The Jade-Faced Asura’s eyes were bloodshot. "He was! But that Ye Feng’s methods are heaven-defying! Even Prince Yama was slapped to death by him on the spot!"

The Central Ghost Emperor’s brow furrowed. "Young Miss, what is that Ye Feng’s cultivation level, exactly?"

"He must be a Tier Eight Martial Immortal!" the Jade-Faced Asura said through gritted teeth. "Father, you have to avenge me!"

Ning Xuan nodded coldly. "Don’t worry. That bastard won’t live for long."

The Central Ghost Emperor frowned and said, "Great Emperor, with the enhancement from the Kirin Set, that bastard will be even harder to deal with now!"

Ning Xuan spoke with contempt. "Even with the Kirin Set’s enhancement, his cultivation won’t break through to the Dao Realm. He’s no threat. The only ones who give me pause are those old monsters. Still, we should make some preparations, just in case things get out of control."

He finished and looked at the Central Ghost Emperor. "You, arrange for our people to guard those two old fossils. With these two trump cards in hand, we won’t have to worry about Ye Feng refusing to hand over what’s ours..."

He stopped mid-sentence and suddenly changed his mind. "This matter is too important. You should go personally."

The Central Ghost Emperor nodded and turned to leave. Behind him, the Jade-Faced Asura spoke through gritted teeth:

"Father, I want to go too! I want to vent my anger on them!"
