195: Chapter 195

From now on, the Snake-Human Clan no longer needs to worry about being invaded by other races, and the snake women will not be sold to other races to become playthings.

For this kindness, Feng Yun naturally had no way to repay it, so this mission must be completed to Perfection.

If the Heavenly Demon Fox Clan were in trouble, the Snake-Human Clan would also be in danger; Feng Yun knew well the principle that if the lips are gone, the teeth will be cold.

So stupid, you didn't even set up any protection.

Xiao Bai jumped in after her; he used his magic power to form a barrier around his body, perfectly blocking the intrusion of the black liquid.

After diving a dozen meters, they reached the bottom. Xiao Bai stood on the riverbed, looking blankly at the pitch-black Feng Yun, and almost laughed out loud.

I'll help you force the black liquid out.

No need, this King can do it herself.

Feng Yun vigorously shook her body, forcing all the black liquid out, and formed a purple barrier around her body with her magic power.

Possessing the strength of a Ninth-Level Demon King, this was not a difficult task, and she was well aware of Xiao Bai's nature, knowing he was definitely trying to take advantage of her.

Now that we're at the bottom, how should we proceed to Ghost Emperor City?

Child's play. I'm best at digging holes; leave this kind of thing to me.

Feng Yun spread her hands and smiled bitterly: I could tell that long ago, please go ahead!

This is the Nai River, and members of the Ghost Race could appear at any moment, so he could not simply transform into a giant python to dig.

Ding!

A thin, diamond-like snake tail appeared behind Xiao Bai's buttocks; its spiral shape was very suitable for digging holes.

Xiao Bai's entire body spun rapidly, his hard snake tail violently drilling into the riverbed rock.

Just after drilling through ten meters or so, a large amount of black liquid gushed out; he must have dug into oil.

Damn it, this place is truly overflowing with wealth. If I could ever bring all this oil back, I would become the richest man.

I'd build gas stations right next to the oil barrels overnight, one yuan per liter, buy one get one free, that's just how capricious I am.

He drilled a dozen holes in a row, and a large amount of oil emerged from each, soon raising the water level of the Nai River by several meters.

Such a big commotion also attracted patrolling soldiers of the Ghost Race.

Hey, what are you doing, kid?

Digging a hole, obviously.

A dozen Ghost Race patrol soldiers walked over. Feng Yun immediately perked up, ready to strike and strangle them at any moment.

She didn't know where they had popped out from; she had been too focused on watching Xiao Bai dig and hadn't noticed them.

She walked to Xiao Bai's side and whispered: Should we just take out these minions?

No, they must know how to enter Ghost Emperor City. I'll handle them.

Xiao Bai took out a few spirit coins and handed them to the leading squad leader.

My wife and I came out to make a little extra money by getting some black liquid to sell to the Human Race. Please accept this small token of appreciation, Officer.

The squad leader weighed the three spirit coins in his hand and showed a satisfied smile: That's more like it.

You've got guts, kid, daring to go for a purple ghost. Only black ones are recognized as the most beautiful female ghosts.

Xiao Bai forced a smile: The conditions don't allow it; how could I be worthy of a black ghost?

I was a bit too vigorous with the drilling just now and lost the way home. Please, Officer, take us, husband and wife, back, and I will definitely reward you further.

The squad leader looked pleased and waved his hand: Follow me. This kind of black liquid is spread throughout the entire Nai River, stretching for thousands of miles. It is inexhaustible and endless, so there is no need to specially prospect for it.

Once the abundant black liquid underground reaches a certain amount, it will automatically emerge, so why go to such great lengths?

Every once in a while, other races come to buy solid black fuel; the Human Race has a huge demand for it.

Don't blame this captain for not warning you: unauthorized extraction of black liquid is a serious crime. Seeing that you're so sensible, I'll pretend I didn't see it, but don't do it again in the future.

Xiao Bai said flatteringly: The officer's lesson is well-taken.

Follow me...

The Ghost Race patrol soldier led the way; he held a token in his hand that could automatically find the direction in the pitch-black water.

Passing through a long, narrow tunnel, they saw a huge mine where thousands of Little Devils were mining.

Through another tunnel, they moved the solid fuel to the bank of the Nai River and piled it up, waiting for other races to come and purchase it.

The squad leader pointed to a tunnel that plunged deep into the ground.

Going down from here will take you back to Ghost Emperor City.

He pulled Xiao Bai to one side and gestured, indicating he wanted spirit coins.

It was very secluded here; the squad leader even specially sent his subordinates away. Feng Yun watched from the side, ensuring no other Ghost Race members would approach.

She had understood Xiao Bai's cunning look just now; he was definitely about to make a move.

Chapter 259: Disguised Entry into the City

Come closer, Officer. I have more good stuff here; you absolutely must not let the other brothers find out.

The squad leader grinned from ear to ear: Bring it here quickly.

Xiao Bai plunged his palm into the squad leader's body, killing him instantly; the entire body turned to ashes and vanished.

Xiao Bai quickly transformed into his appearance and took back the three spirit coins from before.

Punk, my things aren't just for taking.

He pointed at a black stone that transformed into a black Centipede Demon, and loudly called his subordinates over.

Hey, you bastards, come here! You actually let a Centipede Demon sneak into the Ghost Race territory. Fortunately, this captain is observant.

The dozen or so subordinates immediately rushed over: Captain is mighty! This Centipede Demon is simply courting death.

Seeing this, Feng Yun immediately sobbed and hugged Xiao Bai's thigh.

Captain, spare me! My husband was killed by the Centipede Demon, who even disguised himself as him. I was forced into this!

Please get up, little lady. How about you come with this captain from now on?

Thank you, Captain!

Feng Yun took Xiao Bai's arm; the role change was so fast it didn't need rehearsal. Having been by his side for so long, they naturally had this tacit understanding.

The dozen or so Little Devils present were bewildered. One of the bolder ones asked curiously.

Doesn't the captain only like black female ghosts?

Xiao Bai slapped him and scolded loudly: Bastard, are you teaching me how to do my job?

What's so good about black ghosts? I need to change my taste once in a while.

You guys continue patrolling. This captain is taking this Mei Ji into the city to have some fun.

Yes... walk slowly, Captain.

Xiao Bai swaggered towards the underground tunnel with Feng Yun.

Don't let go; there are still many Little Devils watching nearby. If you're going to act, you have to do the whole thing.

Feng Yun really wanted to pull away, but Xiao Bai held on tightly. He had transformed into the appearance of the squad leader, pitch-black all over with only his teeth being white.

The entire Ghost Race was mainly black, followed by dark gray; other colors were basically very rare.

Hey, don't go too far. Just now I cooperated with your acting, but you're groping everywhere. Can you be a little more behaved?

Heehee, I'm used to it! Yuner, even after turning into a Ghost Race member, you still feel so good to touch; it's simply perfect.

Xiao Bai took out two Medicinal Pills and handed one to Feng Yun: To be safe, you should take this. Although transforming can also hide Demonic Qi, I can't guarantee anything when facing strong members of the Ghost Race.

Feng Yun decisively swallowed it without saying any more nonsense.

They jumped into the small tunnel together, their bodies falling rapidly, and after a while, they arrived deep underground.

A huge city built against a mountain appeared in front of them; it should be the legendary Ghost Emperor City.

A large number of Little Devils were going in and out of the city gate; it was very lively.

There was no sunlight here all year round. Ghost Emperor City was surrounded by mountains on three sides, and there was only one city gate for entry, all made of huge black stone mountains.

Three huge fire basins stood on the stone mountains, providing light for the entire Ghost Emperor City.

Yuner, don't be nervous. They're all just Little Devils inside; there's nothing to be afraid of.

Feng Yun scolded: Which eye of yours saw this King being afraid?

If you're not afraid, why are you trembling?

If you weren't groping around, would this King be trembling?

Xiao Bai smiled awkwardly: Sorry, I'm really used to it. When I'm with you, if I don't do something, I always feel uncomfortable all over.

It's a good thing no other Little Devils saw us. After entering the city, I will definitely behave properly, I swear.

Can you change the tone of your speech? 'This King' is indeed not suitable; the term 'this servant' from earlier was very appropriate.

Watch your hands, and this King naturally won't mess things up.

Xiao Bai wanted to enter the city now; he always felt there was something eerie inside, and Gui Jianchou had not left him much information.

Suddenly, a mass of black liquid moved slowly at the city gate; whenever other Little Devils passed by, it would immediately stop.

Its movements were very slow; if one didn't observe carefully, one wouldn't be able to notice it at all.

I think I see Old Gui. Let me confirm again, so we don't have a misunderstanding.

Xiao Bai took out the communication token to try and connect with Gui Jianchou; the mass of liquid from before quickly slipped into a dim corner.

Hey, Brother Bai.

I see you; just wait there and don't move.

Xiao Bai and Feng Yun quickly walked forward. Seeing two Ghost Race members approaching, Gui Jianchou immediately turned into black liquid and slipped away.

Don't panic, it's us.
