Chapter 712: Chapter 423: Broken Mirror_2

However, Lord Sun didn’t plan to delve too deeply into this Little Ghost’s background. He strode towards his ’One Percent Pawnshop’. In his opinion, losing something was trivial, and since he’d already spoken, it meant that the issue was resolved.

Surprisingly, as soon as he moved, Little Ghost rushed up and fell down at Owen Bertram’s feet, lying on the ground to block his path!

"You can’t leave!"

"You have to find my treasure!"

Ghost Knight trembled with anger. How could such hooligan-like behavior stop a Sixth Realm Powerhouse? However, it was extremely offensive. Ghost Knight drew his sword and pointed it at Little Ghost: "Scoundrel! This is an esteemed guest of the Ghost Zone!"

But Little Ghost still reached out to hug Owen Bertram’s leg: "I don’t care! I have nothing to lose, and without my treasure, all hope is gone. I don’t want to live. Just kill me and let me vanish completely..."

Lord Sun frowned with dissatisfaction. The Sixth Great Realm should not be disrespected! But suddenly, he sensed something and looked towards a small alley a few hundred yards away from the ’One Percent Pawnshop’.

At the same time when Lord Sun frowned, Little Ghost became unable to move, his wicked expression, and outstretched arms, all frozen in place.

From the small alley, there was a sudden loud bang, and a huge mass of dark spirit flames soared into the sky, with immense power. It created a crater several yards wide and caused the surrounding buildings to collapse from the impact.

With the explosion, seven or eight shadows quickly fled in different directions.

The Ghost Knights sent by their leader were quite embarrassed as they rushed out from the explosion. Their armor’s radiance dimmed.

The leader angrily said, "Bob and his gang actually broke the rules!"

He quickly took out a Token from his chest, shook it in the air, and brought forth a part of the Ghost Zone’s Authority. A vast area within several miles was immediately sealed by the tremendous dark energy.

The fleeing shadows were completely immobilized with crackling sounds, remaining in their escape poses, unable to move.

However, one of them had three tadpole-like dark energy streams surging out of its body. It was unknown what treasure it was, but it swam around and managed to counter the sealing power brought in by the Token, still trying to escape at full speed!

The leader was embarrassed and cursing as he urged his horse to take to the sky, quickly chasing after the fleeing shadow. With one furious shout, he swung his sword down.

Owen Bertram shook his head secretly. King of Souls and others were unable to repair and perfect the Ghost Zone in time, which allowed someone to take advantage of the loophole. Those tadpole-like dark energy streams were precisely what made use of the gaps; otherwise, how could they resist the entire Ghost Zone’s Authority?

The fleeing shadow was the gang leader Bob, who had some connections with Ghost Knights in the area. The Ghost Knights had thought they could easily retrieve the stolen object by speaking a few words, but they didn’t expect Bob to go crazy this time and turn against them!

However, these local gangs would never amount to anything significant. Caught by the Ghost Knight Leader, a single slash shattered the four Magical Instruments on Bob’s body. He was slashed through the air and fell miserably to the ground, a long cut on his body oozing with sticky dark energy.

The Ghost Knight Leader returned to Lord Sun’s side, his sword sheathed and a chain tossed to bind Bob’s neck, dragging him behind the horse.

He saluted Owen Bertram, "Sir, it must be him and his Ghost minions who did it."

Owen Bertram nodded and released the restraint on Little Ghost. Little Ghost showed no gratitude, immediately jumping on Bob’s body and searching him zealously, finding the disguised and hidden Broken Mirror.

Little Ghost finally breathed a sigh of relief, holding the treasure tightly in his hands. Bob couldn’t help but feel regret, his eyes never leaving the small mirror.

Both the Ghost Knight Leader and the Corpse Fiend in front of One Percent Pawnshop frowned and looked at the mirror, wondering if it was another demonic artifact capable of bewitching and unsettling Ghosts’ minds.

However, Lord Sun, who had previously shown no interest in the treasure, looked surprised and told the Ghost Knight Leader, "Bring him in. I have a few questions for him."

After saying that, Lord Sun didn’t even look at Little Ghost, and entered the One Percent Pawnshop first.

Bat Taoist was minding the shop, cooperatively pretending it was his first meeting with Lord Sun. He simply fulfilled his duty as a host and cleared out the Back Hall for Lord Sun to "interrogate" the suspect.

Little Ghost uneasily followed the Ghost Knights inside, his hands still hugging the treasure to his chest. All the way, he kept babbling, "Don’t even think about swallowing my treasure. So many Ghosts saw me come in, if I never show up again, everyone will know what happened. The reputation of your Ghost Market will be completely ruined..."

The Ghost Knights were extremely annoyed with this fellow. If it weren’t for Lord Sun’s order to bring him in, the Ghost Knights had countless ways to torment him and leave him speechless and forced to swallow the bitterness.

Owen Bertram sat high in the Back Hall, waving his hand casually, "Sir, I want this small mirror. Name your price."

If Leroy Baker were present, given Little Ghost’s shameful behavior, he would certainly never show any interest in the treasure. He would leave without hesitation, then secretly bribe some local crooks, making it easier to obtain the treasure through theft, deception, fraud, and various other means.
