Chapter 773 The Ghost Token

When the sovereign and the two grand elders arrive at the forbidden place of the Ghost Sect–Immortal Burying Valley, even the thunderclouds and the Qi of the Ghost Emperor have vanished, let alone Meng Jing and the mysterious man in black.

“How is it possible...” The sovereign of the Ghost Sect is hard hit.

The two elders are as silent as cold cicadas now.

They both know that now the sovereign has been extremely furious. If they dare to talk recklessly, they will be like doing the belly dance on the sovereign’s bed. They don’t want to court death anyway. Hence, they don’t intend to say anything or do anything.

They should just stand here quietly.

“You two, go and search around now. The people who came to Immortal Burying Valley should be still here,” the sovereign of the Ghost Sect says in a stern voice.

“Yes!”

The two elders also let out a sigh of relief and hasten to take the opportunity to escape.

Although the Immortal Burying Valley has always been the forbidden place of the Ghost Sect, as the elders of the Ghost Sect, of course they know that the sovereign still attaches great importance to this place.

Now that something wrong has happened to the Immortal Burying Valley, the sovereign is surely anxious.

Moreover, the current Immortal Burying Valley only exists in name now.

In Immortal Burying Valley, the Ghost Emperor that wants to pass the trial and become the Ghost Immortal has been gone. The so-called Immortal Burying Valley also has become a joke.

Although it was of no use to them when it was here, it still gave them hope.

...

When Meng Jing wakes up, she finds that she is lying in her own room.

As to the man in black, he is sitting on the chair. He is still wearing the wide black robe so Meng Jing cannot see his appearance clearly.

However, the man has told her the reason before, so regarding this issue, Meng Jing won’t insist. She just feels a bit curious.

“Why am I back here?” Meng Jing rubs her head and only feels a headache as if having a hungover.

“Is it the green phoenix that is in your body?” The man in black asks.

Meng Jing is slightly dazed and immediately realizes something. Instantly, her face turns pale and then she asks, “Did it appear just now?”

The man in black nods and then tells her what happened in Immortal Burying Valley.

After hearing the man in black out, Meng Jing feels a bit astonished.

“You are saying that the green phoenix’s soul in my body devoured the Ghost Emperor’s Qi in the Immortal Burying Valley?” Meng Jing asks with staring eyes.

The man in black nods.

“Fine...” Meng Jing heaves a sigh and says nothing.

“What’s happening to you?” The man in black hedges and seems to think of something, saying with a smile, “Of course, if you don’t want to talk about it, it’s fine. I won’t force you.”

“Actually, it is fine if I tell you about it. That old woman made me do it. It is only a wisp of the monster’s soul, which is not as exaggerated as you imagine,” Meng Jing says smilingly.

The man in black nods and finds what she said is reasonable. If it is a complete soul of the green phoenix, given Meng Jing’s current capability, she cannot put it into her body forcibly.

The green phoenix is a mythical creature whereas Meng Jing is a cultivator only, except that she is relatively talented.

“Oh right, you didn’t finish your words yet,” Meng Jing asks, “What did you say I need to find?”

“The Ghost Token.” The man in black is worried that his words may be interrupted by anything so he hastens to say, “With the Ghost Token, you can get in and out of the Ghost Sect freely. Besides, it can conceal your Qi and change your appearance. In this way, after you leave, they won’t find you.”

“Change my appearance?” Meng Jing is astonished, “Is there such a thing in the world?”

The man in black laughs, “Nothing is too strange in the world but the Ghost Token is a treasure of the Ghost Sect. It is not easy to get the Ghost Token.”

“Where is it?” Meng Jing says without hesitation.

“Aren’t you afraid of death?” The man in black asks with a smile.

Meng Jing takes a look at him with complicated eyes and says calmly, “If I’m afraid of death, will I come here?”

The man in black looks as if lost in thought.

After waiting for a while, he continues saying, “The Ghost Token is in the Five Ghosts Mansion of the Ghost Sect but it is equipped with lots of mechanisms and guarded by five Ghost Kings. Given your capability, you can’t be able to handle them so by then, I will directly draw the five Ghost Kings away.”

Hearing that, Meng Jing feels as if taking a tumble.

She was suspicious about the man in black before. Since he knows where the Ghost Token is, why doesn’t he take it himself? Is he afraid of danger? This is impossible. If he is really afraid of danger, he won’t be here. As such, she had to doubt whether he was up to something. Maybe he has been lying to her only to steal the Ghost Token with her help?

Now, the man in black gives her an answer.

Meng Jing immediately realizes something and says, “If so, will you be found?”

“So what?” The tone of the man in black suddenly becomes sterner, “Actually, I never mean to go back alive.”

Meng Jing is startled.

From the tone of the man in black, she feels his determination.

Of course she knows that he was not kidding.

That’s really his plan.

“Someone must be sacrificed so that we can get the Ghost Token?” Meng Jing bites her lips and asks.

The man in black seems to have seen through her mind and then says smilingly, “There is no other way. Besides, that is not the reason. Instead, it is because I can’t go back.”

Meng Jing looks at him in confusion.

She is waiting for him to talk about the reason.

Why can’t he go back?

Yet, it seems that the man in black doesn’t mean to continue the topic. Instead, he changes the topic back to the business.

“Let’s go to the Five Ghosts Mansion at midnight the day after tomorrow.”

After saying that, the man in black directly stands up and walks out with his hands on his back before Meng Jing answers.

Meng Jing wants to say something but seeing his back with determination, he still says nothing.

He gets out of the room.

On the way back, the man in black takes off the big hood and exposes his hideous face. The scars on his face are like centipedes, crisscrossed.

“I cannot go back anymore.”

Having walked for a distance, he mutters with a bitter smile.

“I really cannot go back...”

Meng Jing in the room looks at her left wrist. The pattern of the green phoenix looks more like a tattoo but it is glittering with hazy green light.

“By then, is it me or you...” Meng Jing gazes at the pattern of the green phoenix on her wrist and mutters deeply resignedly.
