164: Immortal? Ant?

At this moment, a black minivan was quietly parked on the road not far from Qingshan Residential District.

A man and a woman were inside the car.

The man was about forty years old, dressed in a black suit, and wearing gold-rimmed glasses, looking like a successful person.

The woman was young, dressed in black casual clothes, about twenty years old, with a delicate face, but on this delicate face, there was a long, centipede-like scar, extending from the corner of her right eyebrow all the way to her left jaw, making her look very fierce.

“Qingshan Residential District, as a gathering place for ghosts, has a danger level of A, but from the current situation, it seems that a Ghost King has appeared inside, no, perhaps even an existence above a Ghost King!”

Lui Li looked at the black vortex condensing above Qingshan Residential District, pushed his gold-rimmed glasses, and a barely noticeable drop of cold sweat ran down his temple.

A Ghost King! That was a Ghost King!

The appearance of a single Ghost King was enough to turn a city into a living hell.

Beside him, Jiang Xinyi, who was sitting in the co-pilot seat, licked her somewhat dry lips, and a hoarse voice came from her throat.

“You contact the Investigation Bureau!”

After speaking, she opened the car door and quickly swept towards Qingshan Residential District.

“Xinyi, what are you doing? Don't be impulsive, that's a Ghost King, with your A-level strength, you will never be a match for a Ghost King!”

Lui Li had just taken out his phone to dial the Investigation Bureau's internal number when he saw his partner rush towards Qingshan Residential District, where a Ghost King was suspected to have appeared.

Jiang Xinyi was already the top combat power of the Cao County Investigation Bureau, but she was only A-level.

A Ghost King usually required several S-level Ghost Controllers to take down.

If Jiang Xinyi rushed over by herself like this, she would most likely die.

“Damn it!” Lui Li slammed the steering wheel, opened the car door, and quickly chased after her.

At the same time, he also informed the Investigation Bureau about the situation in Qingshan Residential District, suspecting the appearance of a Ghost King, and urged them to quickly mobilize S-level Ghost Controllers for support.

Originally, the Investigation Bureau wanted the two of them to evacuate to the side and wait for S-level Ghost Controllers from other cities to come as reinforcements.

But how could Lui Li watch Jiang Xinyi go to her death like that? Even though he was only B-level, not even as good as Jiang Xinyi, he still had to pull her back.

This was his niece.

.........

.........

Qingshan Residential District.

Room 444.

The Human Emperor Flag had already swept all the ghosts in the entire district clean; now, apart from being a bit dilapidated, there were no more wailing sounds as before.

“This... this was all taken care of?” Cao Qing, who was standing to the side, still couldn't believe it.

He couldn't even deal with one female ghost, yet this group member in front of him, merely by displaying the Human Emperor Flag, made all the ghosts in the district surrender.

Cultivating Immortals was indeed different.

Cao Qing stared at the Human Emperor Flag, with a burning flame in his eyes; when he cultivated Immortals, he also wanted to get a Human Emperor Flag.

“Let's leave here quickly, I can't wait to start my legendary life.”

Having personally witnessed Chu Mo display such Divine Ability, Cao Qing was full of confidence in his future; as long as he firmly latched onto the big shot's thigh, he would take off sooner or later.

“Wait, someone's here.”

Just as Cao Qing was about to leave, Chu Mo and Ning Haocheng simultaneously raised their hands, opening the main door from a distance.

“Swish—!”

The sound of a blade cutting through the air rang out.

A black shadow, at a speed imperceptible to the naked eye, holding a Tang Dao emitting black Qi, slashed towards the three of them.

Cao Qing was startled by this scene, his body instinctively froze in place, completely unable to dodge, he could only watch the blade get closer and closer to him.

“Whoosh—!”

The imagined pain did not come; instead, the Tang Dao in front of him seemed to have cut into a water curtain.

Cao Qing knew without thinking that it must have been the big shot who made a move.

“This blade of yours is a bit interesting, huh...”

As she spoke, Jiang Xinyi only felt a strong recoil from her right hand, and the Tang Dao flew out of her grip.

It gently landed in the hand of the ancient-dressed man in front of her.

“What?!” Jiang Xinyi was extremely surprised; to so easily seize her ghost artifact, could it be that the person in front of her was the Ghost King that appeared in Qingshan Residential District?

With a thought, a 'whooshing' sound of water appeared in the room, and dark as ink water flowed out from all sides of the walls, piercing towards Chu Mo like sharp arrows.

But at three zhang from him, it abruptly stopped, unable to cross the boundary.

Then, Chu Mo gently waved his hand, and the black water flow seemed to have evaporated, disappearing without a trace.

At this moment, Jiang Xinyi's expression was also extremely grim, because she felt that she could no longer use the power of the A-level Drowning Ghost.

The Drowning Ghost in her body felt as if it had been Seal by some mysterious power.

“Controlling ghosts is interesting, but controlling ghosts is dangerous; once the ghost in your body loses control, your fate will be miserable beyond compare.”

Chu Mo effortlessly seized the ghost artifact and broke the A-level Drowning Ghost's attack methods.

This made Jiang Xinyi even more certain that the ancient-dressed man in front of her was a Ghost King, and not just any Ghost King, because he had no ghost Qi on him at all, yet he didn't seem like an ordinary person either; his temperament was extremely ethereal.

Just like...

An Immortal!

This word had just popped into her mind when Jiang Xinyi decisively extinguished it.

A ghost was a ghost, it could never be an Immortal!

In the instant of her thought, she suddenly found that the figure in front of her had disappeared.

“Are you looking for me?”

Behind her!!!

Her internal alarm bells rang loudly, but Jiang Xinyi found that she couldn't turn around at all, and that pure white, jade-like hand was getting closer and closer to her.

She could only watch helplessly, unable to do anything!

Slap!

A palm landed on her head, and a feeling of being stripped from her body surged into her heart.

A phantom figure was actually pulled out of Jiang Xinyi's body.

'Thump'.

Jiang Xinyi knelt on the ground, watching the Immortal-like man in front of her knead the A-level Drowning Ghost into a ball in his hand...

Such a scene completely overturned her understanding; this was an A-level Drowning Ghost, yet in the hands of this ancient-dressed man, it had no power to resist at all.

No, or rather, this Drowning Ghost had no thought of resisting at all, it was even trembling, even afraid...

“You, who exactly are you?”

Jiang Xinyi couldn't help but ask.

And Chu Mo, who was currently studying the ghosts of this world, looked down at her and smiled faintly: “To you, I am an Immortal; to those more powerful, I am an ant!”

An Immortal? An ant?

A trace of confusion flashed in Jiang Xinyi's eyes; such a powerful existence, yet there were people who could actually regard him as an ant...

How terrifying must that be!

“Xinyi, you... you wait for me, there's something strange here, all the ghost Qi in the entire district has disappeared, and even the ghosts also...”

Lui Li's voice came from the hallway; when he followed the traces and arrived here, he saw an unforgettable scene.

An ancient-dressed man held an A-level Drowning Ghost in his hand, while Jiang Xinyi, the combat power ceiling of the Cao County Investigation Bureau, knelt powerlessly on the ground like an ordinary girl.

This... was unimaginable!
