Chapter 375: Chapter 332: Ghost Zone and River God_2

As he continued to worry, the Corpse Fiend suddenly pointed to the river’s surface and loudly announced, "The Honored Lord has arrived!"

"Ah!" The three King of Souls were overjoyed and quickly looked towards the river’s surface. However, only the night wind and the rippling water could be seen, along with a few demon beasts hunting at night. Where was the Honored Lord?

"Hahaha!" Corpse Fiend stood there smiling and laughing with his hands on his hips.

The three King of Souls knew they had been tricked and glared at the Corpse Fiend angrily. The Corpse Fiend, who had just been enjoying himself, suddenly realized that he was playing a prank on all three of them. Was this a bit too much?

"Don’t mess around..." Corpse Fiend quietly retreated. The King of Souls was seething with anger, and a dense fog of Yin energy rose from his body, about to capture the Corpse Fiend. Suddenly, the Drowned Ghost Princess cheered from behind, "I’ll go greet the Honored Lord!"

The King of Souls was enraged, "You’re causing trouble too!"

He turned around abruptly and saw that Little Loach had been pushed by the Drowned Ghost Princess’s waves onto the large stone slab.

"Honored Lord!" The King of Souls was overjoyed, and hurriedly collected the Yin Qi fog, and knelt down. Corpse Fiend also knelt, secretly touching his mouth: was it really a joke?

Owen Bertram’s voice rang out, "What’s been going on during this time?"

King of Souls replied respectfully, "Everything is normal here. Please take a look, Honored Lord; the scope of the Ghost Zone has expanded by more than double."

Quick, praise us! Our achievements are remarkable!

Little Loach raised its upper body, showing a somewhat expert demeanor, and nodded slightly, "Not bad, but the growth of our forces here is rather slow."

King of Souls immediately replied, "Please rest assured, Honored Lord. We have already developed a comprehensive plan that is being implemented step by step. The unique cultivators in the nearby counties will gradually be attracted to settle down in the Ghost Zone."

Owen Bertram responded calmly, "Too slow."

King of Souls and the others were startled, thinking that the Honored Lord was still not satisfied. They anxiously replied, "We will redouble our efforts..."

"It’s not your fault," said Owen Bertram. "The number of unique cultivators in the human territory is actually quite small."

He manipulated the Commander’s Token, making it fly around the Ghost Zone for a week, and then said, "You all should pay more attention recently, and work harder to expand the scope of the Ghost Zone."

After hearing what the Honored Lord meant, the King of Souls plucked up the courage to ask, "Please enlighten us, Honored Lord. How many times must the Ghost Zone be expanded before it can be considered enough?"

Owen Bertram replied, "Four times would hardly be enough, but I guess it will have to do. I shouldn’t make things too difficult for you."

The King of Souls secretly grieved, for it was only due to the success of the first Grand Gathering that the scope of the Ghost Zone had been expanded by one fold. However, the next gathering would undoubtedly not have the same effect. It would be quite a challenge to expand the zone by four times in such a short time.

While he was worrying, the Honored Lord remarked quite casually, "Once you are ready, I’ll go out for a trip and bring back a ghost army for you. Well, expanding the Ghost Zone four times is still somewhat inadequate, but it will have to do."

King of Souls and the others were dumbstruck. As expected of the Honored Lord, he could easily summon such a large Ghost Army!

A Ghost Zone four times its current size wouldn’t be enough?!

"We are grateful, Honored Lord!" The King of Souls was the first to kneel down. Before he could even finish speaking, Owen Bertram hurriedly added, "The four of you need to work twice as hard, or you might be outshined by those Tier-6 ghosts within the Ghost Army. Who would lead the Ghost Zone then?"

King of Souls was deeply shaken: among that huge Ghost Army, there were several Tier-6 Great Ghosts!

His sense of crisis rocketed, as he deeply bowed, "Please rest assured, my lord. We will redouble our efforts and at least one of us will reach Tier-7 before the arrival of the Ghost Army!"

Then, he gritted his teeth and made a firm commitment, "If we fail to accomplish this, we are willing to give up the position of Ghost Zone leader!"

Owen Bertram nodded indifferently, "Good. Work hard. Opportunities are reserved for those who are prepared." After finishing, Little Loach flicked its tail and disappeared into the river water.

"Farewell, Honored Lord."

After the Drowned Ghost Princess sent Little Loach away, she saw the three King of Souls with determined eyes and fury in their hearts, "We must put everything on the line this time!"

"The Honored Lord has given us the chance; whether we can grasp it or not depends on ourselves!"

The four of them were well aware of the implications of a Ghost Army with several Tier-6 Great Ghosts. Once the Ghost Zone was established, the process of transforming it into a Miniature Underworld would take a significant step forward.

King of Souls glared fiercely at the Drowned Ghost Princess, "Especially you! Stop thinking about seducing the Honored Lord all the time! Focus on cultivation!"

The Drowned Ghost Princess pouted, thinking that the old man knew nothing. She had the lowest cultivation level and couldn’t catch up with them no matter how hard she tried. But if she could really become the Honored Lord’s concubine, wouldn’t they all have to respect her no matter what cultivation level she had?

No matter how many Ghost Armies arrived, she would be the mistress!

However, it was still necessary to double her cultivation efforts, as she couldn’t afford to fall too far behind. The Honored Lord was too powerful, and if her cultivation was insufficient, she might not be able to withstand the favor of the Honored Lord.

King of Souls said, "Summon the Treasure Ghost Judge, and let’s discuss this matter."

When the Treasure Ghost Judge was called to see the King of Souls and the others, Lord walked back to the Ghost Zone with his hands behind his back and a young girl in tow.

As soon as the Ghost Knights guarding the entrance of the Ghost Zone saw them, they shivered and hurriedly stepped aside: So powerful!

Lord had returned to his roots with honor this time. Although he had not fully digested the soul power of a near Tier-5 peak that he had devoured, Owen Bertram could vaguely sense that even if he did absorb all the power, it would still be difficult for him to break through to Tier-6.
