#726 - The ghost who only kills but never crosses - General Sun

General Zeng resisted the urge to slap Zheng Yu, ignored the name "Old Zeng", and showed no interest in the plan Zheng Yu mentioned, but instead looked at Zheng Yu.

"You...are you really him?"

General Zeng looked suspicious.

Because Zheng Yu, who appeared in front of him at this moment, did not have any familiar aura at all.

Zheng Yu shook his head. "If I say that I don't even know, do you believe me?"

“…”

General Zeng was silent for a long time. He always felt that the human race in front of him was not very reliable.

But Zheng Yu's next words forced General Zeng to think. Zheng Yu said, "Regardless of my identity, at least I stand on the same side as you. I know the red-clothed man."

Zheng Yu said as he threw out a ball of red silk-like substance.

There is a strong smell of blood on it.

At this moment, both General Zeng and Zhong Kui, who was already blood-thirsty, stopped their actions instantly and looked at the red in Zheng Yu's hand.

Red veil!

The token of love given to Zheng Yu by Hongyi.

It is also an item that proves Zheng Yu's identity.

"She even gave you this thing. Unless you kill Red Clothes, you won't be able to get it."

Zhong Kui's terrifying face moved closer to Zheng Yu and stared at him.

"I can't recognize you, but Hongyi thinks you are, so you must be..."

Zhong Kui's voice is like a bell, buzzing with a convincing aura.

When General Zeng heard Zhong Kui say this, he also said to Zheng Yu: "You asked Yaksha to inform me that you know the news about Hongyi?"

Zheng Yu nodded, "I know."

"I came to the ghost world to find her."

"To be more precise, she and I made an appointment to meet in the ghost world to pick up something."

General Zeng and Zhong Kui looked at each other; both things surprised them.

General Zeng asked, "What do you want?"

Zhong Kui asked another question: "Is Hong Yi still alive?"

Zheng Yu deliberately glanced at Zhong Kui, and he saw a complicated expression on Zhong Kui's majestic face.

There are worries, surprises, and even hope.

As for General Zeng, he was more concerned about why Zheng Yu and Hong Yi agreed to meet in the ghost world and what they wanted to get? Was it the item that Di Ting had been guarding?

Zheng Yu answered Zhong Kui's question first, "Hong Yi and I had agreed to meet in the ghost world, but she probably hasn't reached the ghost world yet, and I lost contact with her."

"With Hong Yi's ability, ordinary people cannot control her unless they are strong in the realm."

Zhong Kui said at this time: "Hong Yi has the strength of the middle stage of the realm. Apart from Yu Si... I can't think of anyone who can stop her."

"The middle stage of the realm...how many levels of boundaries are there?" Zheng Yu asked.

Zhong Kui shook his head, "I don't know either, but I once heard Hongyi say that the peak of the star domain is actually the upper limit of what can exist in the lower realm. When you reach the realm, you are the master of a realm."

"That realm... there shouldn't be any boundaries."

The master of a world?

Zheng Yu once asked about Hongyi's strength, and Hongyi's original answer was... at least in the lower world, she could be Zheng Yu's strongman.

But you broke your promise.

Zheng Yu nodded slightly, then said to Zhong Kui: "My guess is the same. The sudden disappearance of the red-clothed girl must be related to the rain."

"So, if you want to find the red-clothed girl, you must ask Yusi in person."

Zheng Yu then looked at General Zeng, "As for who I am, it's actually not important. What's important is that I am friends with the ghost world."

Zheng Yu's words were not against his will, but were very sincere.

Let’s not talk about the relationship with the red-clothed woman.

The ghost world is actually the best helper Zheng Yu can find.

From the red-clothed man, Zheng Yu learned the history of the ghost world, a race that lost the Eternal God and was expelled to the lower world due to some conflicts over interests in the upper world.

Such a race holds great hatred towards the four gods who currently control the upper realm.

General Zeng is just a strong man who has just stepped into the realm. He has not even been able to grasp the essence of the realm. Otherwise, General Zeng would not have failed to answer Zheng Yu's question about the realm boundary just now.

A very practical question.

That is General Zeng’s realm, which is actually a pseudo-realm.

To be more precise, it is to save face.

Zheng Yu's question goes straight to the core of this war.

General Zeng was silent for a moment, but finally explained: "I can block the rain... for a short time."

"I know that old man has the strength to fight against Yu Si."

"But he can't leave Fengdu Ghost City because he has to stay there and watch... something."

When General Zeng said this, he glanced at Zheng Yu deliberately.

Then he told the truth: "I borrowed the power of Di Ting and Fengdu Ghost City to forcibly increase my strength to the realm, but it is not the realm, just the strength that can fight against the strong in the realm."

"Why?" Zheng Yu asked.

General Zeng explained: "Because the ghost kings of all generations and Fengdu Ghost City are one and the same."

"The Light Clan once attacked Fengdu Ghost City. It was the Red Clothes who blocked the rain. However... the blood of the Angel Clan has powerful abilities. Even the Red Clothes could only block it, but could not stop the Light Clan from destroying Fengdu."

Zheng Yu had personally experienced the power of the angels.

Maxine was the hardest enemy he had ever killed.

"At the critical moment, Mr. Di Ting and Hong Yi merged Fengdu with the object."

Zheng Yu understood, "Then Yusi and the Light Clan came for the thing in Fengdu Ghost City. If they bind it to Fengdu Ghost City, then Yusi will not easily attack Fengdu Ghost City."

"That's right."

General Zeng nodded.

Zheng Yu continued, "And you are the next ghost king of Hongyi. You are bound to Fengdu Ghost City, so Yu Si dare not kill you."

At this point, Zheng Yu probably understood something, and said to General Zeng: "Then I probably know why Hong Yi disappeared."

"You and Di Ting used the high degree of binding in Fengdu Ghost City to hold back the rain, but the only one who could block it was Hong Yi."

General Zeng nodded: "Although I don't want to admit it, it is true."

"After Hong Yi disappeared, the only true realm master left in the ghost world was Di Ting. But old Mr. Di Ting... has entered old age and is not as strong as when he followed Yongheng Dizang."

Zheng Yu snapped his fingers, "The key point is the red dress."

"If Yu Si controls Hong Yi, is it possible for her to use Hong Yi's former identity as the Ghost King to change the binding relationship of Fengdu Ghost City?"

Zheng Yu's question made General Zeng slightly stunned.

Zhong Kui on the side nodded and said, "This possibility cannot be ruled out."

Zheng Yu said: "So there is no way for us to avoid fighting with that rain. According to the worst-case scenario, Hong Yi has been controlled by that rain, and this battle is unavoidable."

"Then Yu Si...will no longer be afraid of your identity as the Ghost King of Fengdu."

Zheng Yu's words made General Zeng look heavy.

Zheng Yu continued:

"We must fight."

"But we can control where and how to fight in advance."

"Yu Si has actually been planning this all along, in order to catch all of you in one fell swoop after catching Hong Yi. She has been controlling the pace all along."

"That's why the ghost tribe is so passive."

"General Zeng, would you like to hear my plan? Let's take the initiative?"

In response to Zheng Yu's words, Zhong Kui was eager to try, but General Zeng looked at the ghost generals and ghosts behind him with some concern.

Ghosts are just a race.

It's not that they can't die.

"If we don't fight in Fengdu Ghost City and lose our home advantage, our chances of winning will be very low." This is General Zeng's concern.

But just as Zheng Yu was preparing his words of persuasion, General Zeng himself refuted his own words, "What you said is bullshit!"

"Is there any battle that is sure to win?"

"It's the fate of the ghost tribe now, and you're still thinking about reducing casualties?"

"Young man, you are right. It is better to strike first and kill those birdmen!"

This completely different tone made Zheng Yu realize at once that the person talking to him was no longer General Zeng.

But it’s the ghost who only kills but doesn’t cross the river - General Sun!
