Chapter 1395 Yellow Spring Valley
Fu Liu Ghost King had gained an absolute upper hand at this time, while Happy Ghost King was finding it increasingly difficult to cope. Anyone could see that it was only a matter of time before Happy Ghost King was defeated.
However, Happy Ghost King was still somewhat unwilling to accept the fact that he had spent so much energy, paid such a huge price, and even made huge concessions to make Big Belly Ghost King give up the competition for the First Hall Master and support him, but ended up in failure.
Happy Ghost King tried his best to save the situation, but found that the more he did so, the faster he lost. He was helpless and could only defend himself without any ability to fight back. After another quarter of an hour, Happy Ghost King finally sighed and admitted defeat.
No matter how good the position of the First Hall Master was, it was not as important as his life. Seeing that if he continued like this, his life would be in danger, he could only choose to save his life first.
Seeing that Happy Ghost King admitted defeat, Fu Liu Ghost King stopped attacking. All the ghost kings present were from the Ten Kings Hall. Happy Ghost King could not go back on his word, so he admitted the result of losing the game. Seeing that no one objected, Giant Ghost King pondered and said, "According to the rules of my Ten Kings Hall, the two have similar votes, and we need to compete to decide the candidate for the first hall master. Now that Fu Liu Ghost King has won the competition, he will be the successor of the first hall."
Long Eyebrow Ghost King said, "With so many of us witnessing, everyone must agree with this result, but the Coffin-carrying Ghost King is not here this time, so we still have to notify him later."
"Of course." Giant Ghost King nodded.
Then the Long Eyebrow Ghost King said: "Of course, this time we selected the successor of the First Hall in advance, which does not mean that the position of the Hall Master of the First Hall is already Fu Liu Ghost King. It is just because this trip to the ruins is more dangerous, so the successor of the First Hall was determined in advance. Until the official handover, the Hall Master is still the Giant Ghost King. Everyone must remember this."
It is not appropriate for the Giant Ghost King to say this, but as the eldest of the Ten Kings Hall, it is more appropriate for the Long Eyebrow Ghost King to say it. Naturally, others will understand this. The Long Eyebrow Ghost King said these words mainly to the Fu Liu Ghost King, so that he would not think that he was complacent as the successor of the First Hall and did not take the Giant Ghost King seriously. Although the Giant Ghost King has a short life span and his cultivation has begun to stagnate, he is a ninth-level Nascent Soul cultivator after all. If the Fu Liu Ghost King is blind and offends people to death, the Giant Ghost King will be more than enough to deal with him.
The fact is indeed so. Fu Liu Ghost King, who had just won the victory, felt that he was full of vigor and energy for a while. The entire Ten Kings Palace would be his own in the future. There was a vast space for him to do things. The Giant Ghost King and the Long Eyebrow Ghost King were yesterday's news. He didn't even need to wait until the Giant Ghost King stepped down. He was absolutely sure to sideline the Giant Ghost King and take the entire Ten Kings Palace into his pocket.
However, the words of the Long Eyebrow Ghost King did have some effect. Fu Liu Ghost King suddenly woke up. Yes, he was only at the eighth level of the Nascent Soul, and there was still a certain distance from the Giant Ghost King and the Long Eyebrow Ghost King. If he wanted to completely control the Ten Kings Palace, he had to wait until the Giant Ghost King abdicated and grew old, or wait until his cultivation surpassed them. Otherwise, once he completely offended these two people, they would have enough ability to cause trouble, and there were also ways to make him pay for it.
Even the other ghost kings are not so easy to deal with. Some of them have good personalities, but those with bad personalities, or those who are not convinced of being elected as the successor of the First Hall, especially the Happy Ghost King who is unwilling to lose to him, will definitely make trouble for him in private. These are unstable factors, and they are not so easy to deal with. We must be cautious.
Thinking of this, Fu Liu Ghost King said: "Don't worry, Long Eyebrow Ghost King, I understand the reason. Not to mention now, even if I really become the master of the First Hall in the future, I will respect the two old predecessors, care for other ghost kings, safeguard the interests of the Ten Kings Hall, and prevent everyone from being disunited."
It is unknown whether Fu Liu Ghost King's guarantee can work, but everyone knows that the replacement of the old with the new is inevitable. Although Fu Liu Ghost King will take office for a few years, the Ten Kings Hall will inevitably change, and will soon usher in a different situation.
After the dust settled, the Giant Ghost King and the Long-Eyebrowed Ghost King seemed to be a little older than usual. They had deeply experienced the helplessness of the Yangtze River where the new generation replaced the old; the Happy Ghost King and the Big-Bellied Ghost King were full of dejection. Not only did they pay so much but got nothing in return, but they also had a bad relationship with the new Lord of the First Hall. They were afraid that they would have a hard time in the future; the Hundred Charming Ghost King and others had their own thoughts. Those who supported the Fuliu Ghost King thought about how to further deepen the relationship in the future, and those who did not support him were also thinking about how to save the situation; as for Qingyang and other Jindan cultivators behind, they were considered to have watched a good show. With the protection of the ghost kings in front, this matter had little to do with them.
After a long time, the Long-Eyebrowed Ghost King said: "The matter of the Lord of the First Hall has been determined. The next step is to discuss how to go to the ruins to find the Pregnant God Fruit. Giant Ghost King, please introduce the situation of the ruins first so that we can make some preparations in advance."
The Giant Ghost King nodded, and then said: "This relic was actually first discovered by the people of the Bag Ghost King. Half a year ago, I visited the Bag Ghost King, and it happened that his people reported that they found some abnormalities in the depths of the Yellow Spring Valley, so the Bag Ghost King asked me to go with him to check it out. The two of us went deep all the way, and indeed found an ancient ruins entrance in the depths of the Yellow Spring Valley. After that, we tried to explore in, but we were forced out after a few steps. It was too dangerous inside, and we had to find more helpers, so we came directly to the Long Eyebrow Ghost King, but we wasted too much time in the Yellow Spring Valley. We hurried on the road, but still missed the birthday of the Long Eyebrow Ghost King."
After listening to the Giant Ghost King's story, everyone finally understood the reason why the two came late. It turned out that they went to the Yellow Spring Valley for adventure, and later found it too dangerous, so they came to everyone to participate.
In fact, this is very normal. Generally, when a cultivator discovers a relic cave, he will keep it secret first and try to explore it by himself. Any good things will be his own. Only when he feels unsure will he find helpers or share the news with others. Although he has to give up some benefits, he can get others through others, instead of sighing in despair.
As for the Yellow Spring Valley mentioned by the giant ghost king, everyone is quite familiar with it. This place is in the outer area of the Ten Kings Palace, and it is only more than 700,000 miles away from the Long Eyebrow Ghost King. However, the ghost cultivators of the Ten Kings Palace rarely go there, because the Yellow Spring Valley is basically a forbidden area for them.
