Chapter 555: Arrival at Baidi City.
"You seem nervous?"
Sure enough, Bai Di's gaze turned and became subtle at the same time. He glanced at the two people and the ghost, and finally set his eyes on Lin Chen.
The atmosphere in the sedan suddenly became stiff with Bai Di's words, the air became cold and made people's hair stand on end.
"The sudden appearance of an unfamiliar voice will naturally lead to the appropriate reaction." Lin Chen said.
"No, that's the emotion that still arises after I came in. Your ghost power is subtly mobilizing, which is more like a kind of hostility." Baidi narrowed his eyes.
Even the space seemed to be frozen. Xu Renfeng and Jian Gui were sweating profusely and felt as if they were sitting on pins and needles.
Lin Chen secretly took a deep breath, prepared himself mentally, and looked into Bai Di's eyes.
Things have come to this, if Baidi really wants to take action, we have no choice but to face it!
"grandfather……"
Monka's fingers trembled slightly, and he also saw the seriousness of the problem.
At this moment, Baidi suddenly laughed, the coldness on his face disappeared, and he said approvingly: "Interesting, Monka, your helpers are not bad."
The tense atmosphere suddenly disappeared.
Xu Renfeng and Wuxin relaxed their bodies, while Lin Chen continued to look at Baidi.
"Grandfather, they are all a little unruly, but they are all friends I made in Yinhuangzhou." Monka said promptly.
"I didn't expect you to make friends at the Tongtian level." Bai Di's eyes left Lin Chen. In his eyes, Lin Chen's strength was only Tongtian, which was not worth his attention. However, he still couldn't help laughing and said:
"A Tongtian Ghost, a Creation Ghost, and a Ghost King were willing to draw their swords when facing an Emperor Realm. They are all brave and courageous people."
Baidi smiled and seemed to have no intention of taking action.
It seemed that everyone's previous actions had been attributed to their arrogant and brutal personalities.
It was a false alarm.
This is normal. With the Emperor's way of thinking, he would definitely not think that the Ghost King, who is only as powerful as Tongtian and is even worse than an ant, would have any grudges with him.
The crisis was quickly resolved and Lin Chen felt relieved.
When Bai Di looked at the Sword Ghost, he suddenly smiled and said, "Little guy, what is your relationship with the Sword Ghost Wu Jian?"
Wu Xin was startled for a moment, then said, "He is my ancestor."
"Haha, when Wu Jian was dominating the world, I was very optimistic about him. I thought he would be able to condense the Dao Seed of Sword and achieve the Supreme God Realm in the future. Now he has been in the Ghost God Realm for many years. I am afraid it won't be long before he becomes a Sword Emperor!" Bai Di paused and said:
"And today, I seem to see his shadow in you, even stronger. The sword ghost who dares to put his hand on the sword in front of an emperor is definitely rare in the world..."
There was something amusing in Baidi's words.
Wuxin blushed and bowed again.
Lin Chen and Xu Renfeng looked at each other. Although they were speechless, they had to give Wuxin a thumbs up.
A Ghost King who dares to draw his sword in the face of an emperor is a unique person in the world.
What an extraordinary courage!
Baidi waved his hand, indicating that there was no need for courtesy, and said:
"You guys should leave first. I want to talk to my granddaughter alone."
Baidi did not continue to pay attention to these interesting "three ghosts".
After being released, Lin Chen and the other two ghosts looked at each other and slipped out of the sedan chair.
Baidi looked at Monka. His cloudy eyes seemed to contain endless wisdom, as if he could see through Monka's soul. He smiled and said slowly:
"Monka, since you can come back here, it means you have passed my test. The evil heart was solved by that Tongtian ghost just now..."
…
That was a close call!
Outside the sedan, the two men and the ghost breathed a sigh of relief at the same time.
There is often a feeling of surviving a disaster.
Even Lin Chen didn't dare to say how relaxed he was.
After all, there is indeed a big gap between him and the emperor realm now, and the only way is to call for help.
And there is also uncertainty in this regard.
And even if he succeeded in summoning the Emperor Realm, at this moment, it was different from the previous situation where he relied on helpers to hold the enemy back while he used the fixed-point teleportation talisman to leave.
The Demon Sea is divided into six major blocks. Beyond the boundary of Yinhuang Continent, the fixed-point teleportation talisman cannot be used.
There are laws of separation.
Therefore, in Gengshengzhou, although you will not be noticed or targeted by too many ghosts and can catch ghosts more freely, you still have to be extremely cautious when facing strong ones.
The two men and the ghost flew in the air without saying a word to each other. It was very quiet.
The Emperor was right beside them, possibly watching them. Even if they tried to transmit their voice at this moment, it would be eavesdropped or their mental fluctuations would be noticed.
The row of "driver" ghost kings who were carrying the sedan chair below were all a little surprised when they saw the two people and the ghost.
The abilities of the Emperor Realm cannot be viewed with common sense. Even if they appear in front of them, they can block their attention and perception.
Baidi and Monka didn't talk for too long.
In just half an hour, Monka took the initiative to get out of the sedan chair and said, "He's gone."
Only then did the atmosphere in the field finally relax.
"It felt like an elephant suddenly passed by an ant. I was scared to death." Xu Renfeng said with lingering fear.
Everyone shook their heads and smiled.
Lin Chen asked: "Why did Baidi leave so quickly? Why didn't he return with you?"
"This is related to the family's situation." Monka sighed slightly, brought Lin Chen and others back to the sedan, and then explained the situation in detail.
The situation of Wanbao Chamber of Commerce is complicated.
Thousands of years ago, Baidi practiced in seclusion and gave up power.
Baidi had six sons and three daughters, and they fought fiercely for the position of the leader of Wanbao Chamber of Commerce.
Various conspiracies and competitions have turned Baidi City into a turmoil.
It can be said that it was a battle among nine dragons for the throne.
In the end, Meng Ming, Mengka's father, who was already highly regarded by Baidi, suppressed all his brothers and sisters and ascended the throne of the helmsman.
Calmed everything down.
Under the leadership of Meng Ming, Wanbao Chamber of Commerce is expanding at an increasingly rapid pace.
But fifty years ago, in the second year after Monka was born, the entire Wanbao Chamber of Commerce was in turmoil again.
Meng Li, the second son of the Meng family who was defeated by his eldest brother, accumulated enough energy to overthrow Meng Ming's rule in one fell swoop.
On that day, a piece of evidence proving that Meng Ming betrayed the Meng family, betrayed Baidi, and leaked Baidi's retreat address was placed in front of all family members.
This is undoubtedly an unforgivable sin!
Meng Ming was so shocked and angry that he naturally could not plead guilty. But it was only then that he discovered that the attitude of the entire family's top leaders was one-sided.
No one supported him.
Meng Ming, who held great power, was successfully sidelined by his younger brother without realizing it.
The sovereignty was taken away by Meng Li.
In the end, under Meng Li's judgment, Meng Ming was imprisoned and killed...
Afterwards, Mengka, the only child of Meng Ming, was expelled from Gengshengzhou.
…
Half a month ago, Bai Di came out of retreat and vindicated Meng Ming's betrayal, because his retreat location was only known to himself and had never been leaked. Meng Ming didn't know the location, so how could it be leaked?
It is said that Meng Li was in so much pain that he cried and regretted on the spot. He was ashamed for "killing his elder brother by mistake" and wanted to destroy his ghost body, return to the sea of demons and disintegrate into a weapon to pay for his elder brother's life.
But Baidi just looked at him coldly and didn't investigate the matter any further. He just said that the girl should come back.
Next, the atmosphere of the entire Baidi City changed!
Baidi's attitude is very subtle, and many ghosts are trying to guess what he is thinking.
First of all, why didn’t Baidi pursue Meng Li too much?
This is completely contrary to his usual character.
Baidi attaches great importance to family bloodline.
You know, when the nine princes were fighting for the throne, Baidi's only request was not to kill anyone.
Therefore, none of the White Emperor's children died during the battle for the throne among the nine princes.
Meng Li's actions definitely touched Bai Di's bottom line, but in the end he didn't say much.
This makes many ghosts feel a little bit hard to understand.
The second is Monka.
Baidi's ambiguous words.
He just asked Monka to come back, but never expressed his opinion.
I don’t know whether Baidi wants to make amends to Monka, or wants to restore order, focus on training Monka, and eventually let Monka become the new helmsman.
It's possible.
They were not sure about these things, but they did not dare to gamble.
So when Monka was on his way here, the Wanbao Chamber of Commerce was already secretly hostile to Monka.
They have even begun their shady tactics.
Mo Xin is not here to escort Monka, but to eliminate Monka on the way.
But before he could take any action, the ghost ship intervened and changed everything.
"So what does your grandfather think?" Lin Chen asked curiously.
"He said he doesn't care about me..." Monka hesitated.
"What do you mean?" Everyone was stunned.
"He only told me that after I return to Baidi City, I can do whatever I want and he won't object, but he won't give me any resources or support. He seems to want me to earn back everything that belongs to me with my own abilities."
Lin Chen also understood what he meant and said with a smile: "This shows that he has expectations for you in his heart, but Wanbao Commercial Bank is too big a business and needs to test you. You will only be qualified if you pass the test of these uncles and aunts in front of you."
"That's true, but I just returned to Gengshengzhou and I didn't have any team at all. My father's direct subordinates had long been dismembered, and Meng Li is a ghost god with great strength." Meng Ka looked embarrassed.
"Ghosts and gods...that's difficult." Xu Renfeng on the side frowned.
Lin Chen didn't say anything either.
Monka looked at the two men and the ghost, hesitated for a moment, and then said, "Brother Ye, Brother Feng, I wonder if you can..."
Xu Renfeng is very strong, a Fate-level expert. Not to mention Lin Chen. In the entire Wanbao Chamber of Commerce, no one can be his opponent except Baidi.
If Lin Chen and the other two take action, many problems will be solved.
Lin Chen understood what he meant, and said, "Some minor matters may be fine, but with your grandfather in charge of the Wanbao Chamber of Commerce, there are still some restrictions on what we can do."
"Don't worry about that." Monka said hurriedly: "Grandfather just told me that he won't stay in Baidi City for too long after returning. He has to leave the family because he has something important to do."
"Big deal?" Lin Chen was stunned.
"He didn't say anything specific. He just told me that two guys had ruined his big plan and he had to catch them to vent his anger."
Well, I don’t know which two unlucky guys were targeted by the Emperor.
"Brother Ye, Brother Feng, as long as I can become the helmsman of Wanbao Chamber of Commerce, all resources can be released to Blue Star and poured into Blue Star as much as possible." Monka said.
As soon as these words were spoken, Lin Chen and Xu Renfeng's eyes lit up slightly.
Lin Chen thought for a moment and said, "As long as there is no Emperor Realm, there will be no problem. But how do you want us to help you? Act as your guards to ensure your safety, or help you assassinate the enemy?"
When Monka saw Lin Chen agreed, she was immediately delighted and expressed her gratitude. But when it came to how to help, she began to think again and said hesitantly, "Actually, this is the best way, but in this way, Brother Ye, you will be easily noticed."
Lin Chen’s current identity is a ghost from Yinhuangzhou, which is nothing, but if he becomes a "strong man" from Yinhuangzhou, then it will definitely attract the attention of certain ghosts.
When the time comes and we conduct a thorough investigation, we will most likely discover something about the two nameless ghosts.
"Brother, actually you are overthinking. I have an idea that can ensure that Monka will become the helmsman." At this time, Xu Renfeng laughed, looking like he had a wise decision.
One man and two ghosts looked at him.
Xu Renfeng smiled confidently:
"Think about it, as long as Baidi is not in the city, you will be the strongest fighter. Then you can set up a big formation and then massacre Baidi City. Isn't that the end of it?"
"Good idea! Cut the Gordian knot. By then, as long as there is no ghost left, nothing will be exposed." Lin Chen's eyes lit up and he praised.
As expected of you who are hanging out with me, you know what I want.
Wuxin's eyes widened on the spot.
Is it so direct?
Monka was sweating profusely and said quickly: "Baidi City is the foundation of my family, and we can't do things like this. Besides, not all ghosts are hostile to me. If we really do this, the Wanbao Chamber of Commerce will probably be ruined."
Lin Chen and Xu Renfeng's words made her heart beat wildly.
Even an illusion arose.
I don’t know whether I invited two helpers or two bandits.
"Well... then kill fewer. After settling down for a while, you can list all the enemy leaders and deal with them." Lin Chen was obsessed with dealing with ghosts.
"That won't work! Brother Ye, we still need to stay calm and not act rashly. What if my grandfather comes back halfway?"
Monka suddenly realized that he was the one who had a grudge against those ghosts, but he was the one who persuaded others to be gentler...
After calming down the two guys who were about to cause trouble for a long time, Monka finally breathed a sigh of relief and said, "The situation is chaotic, let's just take it one step at a time. As long as Brother Ye and you help me, I have confidence."
Lin Chen and Xu Renfeng naturally have no problem.
As I said, they are out to catch ghosts, and they will catch them wherever they go.
The quality of the ghosts in Baidi City is absolutely excellent, and if the strongest Baidi is really not guarding the city, it will definitely be very suitable for them.
As for Wuxin, there was no problem at all. In his words, he was here to gain experience. He would go wherever there was pain...
…
Almost half a day.
Everyone came to a magnificent city.
Baidi City.
At this moment in the city, there were dozens of ghosts standing on the city gate and looking around.
They were all dressed in gorgeous clothes and looked very noble.
There were eight men and women standing at the highest position, they looked a little older, and there was a hint of time on their faces, their ghost powers were extremely powerful, all of them were above Tongtian.
The two strongest among them actually exude ghostly and god-like power.
The appearance of the ghost clan does not change with age.
But some ghosts will change their appearance to some extent according to their identity.
Ghosts treat humans as food and look down on them, but they have been imitating humans intentionally or unintentionally.
In addition to the eight powerful ghosts, there are also many young men and women full of youthfulness, whose strength ranges from Ghost King to Fortune.
These are the core members of the Meng family.
At this moment, they seemed to have come out to welcome Monka, showing their enthusiasm.
But if you get closer, you can see that most of these ghosts' eyes are filled with disdain and sarcasm, and even worse, some of them even reveal undisguised cold murderous intent in their eyes!
