Chapter 217: Chapter 215: Recognizing Identity_1

Lord of the Skeleton Sea was a bit puzzled, not understanding the deeper meaning of the Honored Lord’s words, but King of Souls was truly overjoyed, continuously kowtowing and saying, "I understand, I will do my best, this Grand Gathering will definitely be a complete success!"

Among the four giants, only King of Souls could see that his Ghost Zone could only be considered a "casual chess move" by the Honored Lord. It was basically like this: he accidentally discovered that there was a Ghost Zone here, eh? It seemed a bit different from other Ghost Zones; it was quite interesting.

Then, the four of them eagerly submitted themselves to the Honored Lord’s door, but the Honored Lord didn’t regard these ghost beings as "his own people" at all.

After numerous efforts before, the Honored Lord probably only thought, "These little fellows are quite enterprising," so he would kindly give some advice.

But if after this guidance, these little fellows’ progress was mediocre, it would leave an impression of "rotten wood cannot be carved" in the Honored Lord’s heart.

Now that the Honored Lord finally spoke up, if the Grand Gathering was successful and the Ghost Zone was greatly improved, he would then consider accepting these people as his "subordinates" in earnest, and truly take the four of them under his wing!

For an existence at the level of the Honored Lord, as long as he acknowledges it in his heart, he will not stand idly by if they encounter any calamities in the future!

But with the jumbled thoughts running through Lord of the Skeleton Sea’s mind, he couldn’t think that far and simply believed that he was already one of the Honored Lord’s people.

He didn’t plan to use the Honored Lord’s name to show off, so whether the Honored Lord said those words or not didn’t make much difference to him.

Little Loach nodded to King of Souls, swaying his body and preparing to leave, when suddenly at this moment, a voice came from the distance: "Lord of the Ten Thousand Souls, there is an urgent matter to report."

Since the Archway was built in the green stone slab area near the water, there had been a "inner chamber" around it. The entire Ghost Zone, other than the four giants, including the Judgment Officer who was speaking now, was not allowed in.

King of Souls said, "There are more affairs in the Ghost Zone recently for the preparation of the Grand Gathering. I’ll go deal with them first and then come back to listen to the Honored Lord’s teachings."

Little Loach flicked his whisker: "You guys go handle the matters while I leave now."

King of Souls and Lord of the Skeleton Sea respectfully saw the Honored Lord off and immediately came out to see the Judgment Officer.

Ethan Eastwood, now the Treasure Ghost Judge, was very polite in his greeting before saying, "There is something that a client reported to me, but I am unable to decide, so I came to bother the two Lords."

King of Souls smiled and said, "Brother Judgment Officer is dedicated to his public duty, there’s no need to be so courteous. Just tell us what’s the matter."

He said, "The owner of the Ten Percent Pawn inside the city just came to me in tears; he had hoarded a batch of treasures for the upcoming Ghost Market Grand Gathering, but while he was transporting these treasures they were robbed near the upper reaches of the Yangtze River in Casterly County. The owner is powerless to take them back, so he came to ask me to seek justice."

Lord of the Skeleton Sea thought for a moment and suddenly said, "Why hasn’t Bat Taoist come to find me over this matter?"

Judgment Officer glanced at him: "I’m afraid he’s worried that it would be difficult for you, my Lord."

Lord of the Skeleton Sea blurted out, "What’s so difficult about it? I’ll go over there right now and get the treasures back for him!"

His whole skeleton shook, making crackling sounds as it floated up, about to break through the Ghost Account and strike out - King of Souls stretched out a hand and held each of his skull heads.

This scene made Lord of the Skeleton Sea feel both embarrassed and helpless: King of Souls had conjured countless ghost hands, each ghost hand pressing on the forehead of a skull head!

First, he held them - then gently rubbed them.

It was like petting a pet.

Lord of the Skeleton Sea’s strength was originally inferior to King of Souls, let alone King of Souls’ recent breakthrough to the next level.

Judgment Officer almost laughed out loud at this scene on the side! Fortunately, he was also a former big shot and had great self-restraint, otherwise Lord of the Skeleton Sea would have completely lost face.

"It’s good that Bat Taoist didn’t come to you," King of Souls was also very frustrated, having to break down and explain these things piece by piece to his companions: "The Ghost Zone is transforming from disordered to ordered; it’s a time to establish rules. The way things are handled now will become ’precedents’ - similar incidents in the future will need to be dealt with according to these precedents."

"If the stuff from Ten Percent Pawn gets robbed, and Bat Taoist comes to you, and you go out to get it back, then does that mean you’ll have to follow this method in the future? If someone steals our Ghost Zone’s things, will you be responsible for getting them back?"

Lord of the Skeleton Sea was left speechless; wouldn’t that just tire this Lord to death?

King of Souls snorted, "Your subordinates all have a better sense of priorities than you do."

Lord of the Skeleton Sea was unconvinced but couldn’t find any reason to argue, so he asked fiercely, "Then what do you suggest? The owner of Ten Percent Pawn, hoarding treasures for the upcoming Ghost Market Grand Gathering, is in line with the Honored Lord’s wishes, should we just ignore this matter?"

"Of course we should take care of it!" said King of Souls, "The whole purpose of the Ghost Zone is to follow the Honored Lord’s will. But we also need to make it clear in advance: during the Grand Gathering and Small Gathering, please give us some face, don’t mess with our affairs.

However, for these ordinary matters, we can’t control everything, as long as it doesn’t happen right at our Ghost Zone’s doorstep, we won’t pursue it."

Previously, in order to maintain the prosperity of the Ghost Market, all the treasures sold in the Ghost Market would be protected by the Ghost Market after they were sold and robbed by people, even in case of followed pursuits and killings.

But this time, Casterly County was simply too far away.

King of Souls added, "This time, it’s a show of force, so not only should we take care of it, but we should also make those hidden families tremble in fear! So in the end, you still have to go there yourself."

Lord of the Skeleton Sea rolled his eyes, "After all is said and done, isn’t it the same as my way of handling it?"

Looking at this foolish fellow, King of Souls didn’t know what to say to him anymore, so he waved his hand to let him get on with his work.

Lord of the Skeleton Sea raised his skeletons arrogantly and shattered the Ghost Account, flying towards the upper reaches of the Yangtze River. A voice behind him shouted, "Wait, my Lord."

Judgment Officer came up with the Lord, "We still have to take the client with us as a guide."

Lord of the Skeleton Sea slapped his forehead, having completely forgotten about this crucial matter because he was too busy arguing with the old man. He waved his hands, and countless skull heads rolled up like white waves, sweeping up the Lord and together transforming into a pale white light wave, whistling towards Casterly County.

Owen Bertram had just returned his soul to his body when a trembling Military Officer knocked on the door outside to report, "S-Sir, there seems to be a Great Ghost floating above the Yangtze River... "

After Lord of the Skeleton Sea passed with a rolling wave of white light, all the fierce creatures in the Yangtze River were frightened and sank to the bottom, regardless of how high level they were, as long as they were not as high as him.

The Military Officers in the outpost, of course, noticed this, and they all felt very conflicted. According to the rules, they needed to "investigate and clear it up" and then "file a report", but who would dare to investigate such high-level ghost beings?

When the Military Officer reported, he also said "it seemed", Owen Bertram secretly cursed at Little Bone, then said, "Sleep!"

"Yes, sir!" The Military Officer sighed in relief, thinking his superior was indeed very understanding and decided to pretend as if nothing had happened.
