The mysterious person was Master Ling Yun!
He followed Deng San all the way, and originally wanted to stand up at the most critical moment when Wu Rong and others were besieged by the Secret Lotus Assembly, alone having the savior role, flexing his muscles, and trying his best to show his friendliness in front of Wu Rong.
But who knew things would develop in this direction!
First, that big red-clothed ghost next to Wu Rong, whose strength was no less than that of a ghost king, almost distorted Master Ling Yun’s face with the whirlwind of Yin Qi he created! He racked his brains and couldn’t think of from where there was such a fierce ghost in his previous life, and he did not know whether this ghost was an enemy or a friend. In Master Ling Yun’s impression, all those Ghost Kings who wanted to join Ghost King Wu Rong in his previous life were all sent to claim foreign lands.
If he rushed down now, and it turned out that this big ghost was Wu Rong’s subordinate, wouldn’t it be embarrassing then?
Master Ling Yun hesitated for a while, but he found out that all the members of the Secret Lotus Assembly were dead! At the same time, the dark wind dissipated, and as was expected by Master Ling Yun, the big ghost and Wu Rong were friends rather than enemies. But Master Ling Yun was not at all happy. On the contrary, he looked at the people around Wu Rong from a distance, and his tongue felt bitter.
Ghost Dog King, Su Xiaomi, and Mourning Ghost Huang Mao were all here!
Wu Rong wasn’t dead yet, so why are half of his men ready?! How could Master Ling Yun infiltrate into this small group?! In his last life, he was also a military master of the Ghost Country. He was the true third leader. Besides the Ghost King Wu Rong and the Big Ghost Dog, he was the one who held the most real power. Now he could only helplessly see that everyone was ahead of him, it surely meant that he wouldn’t have any face!
Why are they so courageous and dare to go directly to Wu Rong? Are they not afraid of being struck to death by lightning if they change the original world line?
If he had known earlier, he would have gone to look for him in advance!
Tonight was destined to be a sleepless night. All the members of the Secret Lotus Assembly were dead, and Master Ling Yun’s stepping stone was gone. How on earth should he recognize Wu Rong gracefully and politely? This was more difficult than getting acquainted with Fu Qing.
…If he had known what would happen later, Master Ling Yun would have regretted it and swallowed his crow's mouth in advance.
Speaking of Fu Qing, Fu Qing had really arrived, tonight was simply a magical reality!
Tired, Master Ling Yun was really tired. When he found Fu Qing approaching Wu Rong aggressively with Zhengyang fire, the BGM of world destruction was already playing in his mind. It was Fu Qing who he suffered PTSD from in his previous life, and when the Zhengyang Fire ignited, Master Ling Yun was like Pavlov's dog hearing a bell, and blocked Wu Rong’s way without knowing what happened.
“Boss, let me stop Chunyangzi.”
To maintain world peace, he must be the one to maintain world peace. After finally finding a living Wu Rong, Fu Qing couldn’t beat him to death!
Master Ling Yun’s professionalism was still very good, and the homework of trying to figure out Wu Rong’s mind had also reached its highest level. He knew that his sudden appearance would definitely arouse Wu Rong’s suspicion, but this was also the best time.
“It’s not safe here, get out of here.”
Master Ling Yun lowered his head, as if meeting Wu Rong for the first time in his previous life. His heart was beating wildly, and out of the corner of his eye, he saw A-Bao reluctantly approaching the Ghost Dog King under his orders. Finally, a loud bang broke the silence, and when Wu Rong and the others finally turned and left, a sense of suffocation came, and Master Ling Yun realized that he had been holding his breath at some point, and his scalp was numb.

At least Wu Rong left, but the expression on Master Ling Yun’s face was still worse than a crying one. He stood up and turned to face the raging flames that were approaching, and drew out the green steel sword without any decoration. At this moment, Master Ling Yun felt like the word hero was written all over his body, like a fighter who sacrificed for his ideals, like a moth that slams into a flame and like a roast chicken who went to the fire on his own initiative.
P, qjt!

Master Ling Yun had lived a long life to make a comeback. Could it be that he can’t even fool a young Chunyangzi!?
He could do it!
In the night, under the firelight, Master Ling Yun bravely charged up!
“Who was that person just now?”
They followed Wu Rong, walking a distance of 1,800 meters, and made a big circle around the Ghost Territory. When the flames which filled the sky could no longer be seen clearly, and the roar of the fierce battle faded away, Huang Mao couldn’t help but mutter softly: “This… His posture was almost like making a movie.”
Huang Mao felt a little worried. Seeing Wu Rong’s silence, Huang Mao asked Bai Gu anxiously in a low voice, “Did I get us into trouble?”
Brother Rong didn’t seem to want Fu-daozhang to come? Why was this? Could it be because of the unusual big ghost beside Brother Rong? But Fu-daozhang and Brother Rong have such a good relationship, it shouldn’t be that he’s not able to tolerate even a ghost.
“Well…it should be fine.”
Bai Gu hesitated for a while before answering. He was distracted just now, which was rare for Bai Gu. Bai Gu knew he shouldn’t think too much, but from the mysterious person who jumped out suddenly, he felt more than Huang Mao.
Strong.
Very powerful.
Bai Gu’s eyes ‘saw’ the energy in that mysterious person’s body, which was a very abundant and bright white color, which was the color of the purest and cleanest soul. Usually such people were celestial masters with profound Taoism. The pure white in his body was the strongest Bai Gu had ever seen so far, an unbelievable thought emerged in his mind, like a series of thunderclaps.
A grand master.
This was only based on Bai Gu’s current strength. A Grand Master or even a big man who exceeds the master level was very rare, even in Longhu Mountain. Why did he suddenly come here without warning and treat Wu Rong so respectfully???
Bai Gu’s first reaction was to think of the person who gave Wu Rong the Purified Rootless Water. At that time, Bai Gu thought that Wu Rong could do both black and white, and he had made achievements on both sides, but after tonight he smiled wryly and realized that he was still underestimating Wu Rong. Judging from the attitude of that mysterious person towards Wu Rong, he was not just a simple partner, but more like a subordinate.
To have a Grand Master-level figure as his subordinate, this was something Bai Gu dared not dream of even in his most absurd and daring dreams!
Wu Rong, Wu Rong.
When Bai Gu said the name again, a little fear rose in Bai Gu’s heart. This person was really scary, scary because you never knew how many cards he still had. The unknown was the most frightening, and its mystery was also the most fascinating. Bai Gu firmly believed that following Wu Rong had been the most correct thing he had done since his rebirth!
Wu Rong didn’t respond to Huang Mao just now because he was concentrating on communicating with the ghost dog king.
The big ghost was taken in by Wu Rong, and they would meet Fu Qing after going around in circles. If Fu Qing asked, as long as he didn’t run into the big ghost head-on, Wu Rong could still be sure of persuading Fu Qing.
His concern was mainly the identity of the mysterious man who suddenly jumped out.
If the ghost dog king hadn’t confirmed that he was harmless just now, Wu Rong would not have acquiesced in him going to stop Fu Qing. Seeing Zha Mao – because the short legs of the small spirit dog with white fur were puffed up – nervously following behind the big ghost dog, Wu Rong knew in his heart that the mysterious man was probably the one that the ghost dog king wanted to call.
Now it seemed that it was almost possible to confirm his identity as a reborn.
Chunyangzi.
Was Fu Qing’s title Chunyangzi in his previous life?
Wu Rong should have thought earlier that since he had a good relationship with Fu Qing in his previous life, it seemed normal to have a few celestial masters under his command. Just looking at the night clothes the mysterious man was wearing, was he hiding his identity and did not want to be discovered?
Although so far, apart from Xun An and the Child Ghost, the other reborn people who had appeared were beneficial to Wu Rong, Wu Rong was still somewhat wary of this new mysterious person who appeared to have an unusual mysterious identity. But he was in no hurry.
Since this person jumped out now and respected Wu Rong as the leader, they would definitely meet again in the future. And his spirit dog was currently in Wu Rong’s hands.
Let’s take one step at a time.
“Brother Rong, where are we going?”
Huang Mao dared to ask again, but this time Wu Rong did not ignore him: “We are going to enter Jieyang.”
“Ah? Entering Jieyang? But…”
Huang Mao hesitated to speak, at this moment he finally agreed with Su Xiaomi. Even though the Secret Lotus Assembly will come to attack, if you killed them, you killed them. Killing all the other’s people, and swaggering into the city, isn’t that, isn’t it a bit too face slapping?
“The Stone Gambling Conference will start the day after tomorrow.”
Wu Rong took it for granted, he took off the amulet, untied the tether, and took out a paper crane made of purple talisman seals. The wings of the paper crane trembled slightly, as if they were about to flap their wings to take off as if alive. It had been about ten minutes since the mysterious man appeared, and the orange-red fire spreading across the sky had disappeared. If his job was said to be delaying time, the mysterious man had already succeeded.
Wu Rong just wanted to have some time to relax. Not to worry Fu Qing. At this moment, the group of them almost circled back to the station from the edge of Ghost Territory, not far from the place where the Zhengyang fire was lit just now. Not long after Wu Rong took out the paper crane, a hot feeling suddenly rushed over his face, as if entering midsummer, and then a handsome figure with a sword slowly walked out of the darkness.
Fu Qing still had that meticulous and indifferent appearance, not even messing up his hair crown, and his expression was cold. There was no blazing Zhengyang Fire around him, but his originally pitch-black eyes were now crimson, as if there were blazing flames burning in them. Like the flames that were radiating out turned into restraints, not only did his momentum not weaken, it became more terrifying and frightening.
This aura was too terrifying. Fu Qing, who had not retreated his fighting spirit, was like a sharp blood-stained weapon. When he walked towards Wu Rong step by step, his indomitable aura made everyone dare not stop him. Huang Mao, the self-proclaimed troublemaker, mustered up the courage to open his mouth to explain several times, but he was defeated by Fu Qing’s suppression. He couldn’t say a word, and watched him stand in front of Wu Rong with trepidation.
“Nothing?”
“Mm.”
Fu Qing’s gaze swept across Wu Rong’s body. After the brief conversation, he didn’t ask any more questions. Instead, he rarely took the initiative to put his hand on Wu Rong’s shoulder. It’s unknown if it was just a coincidence, but the area he held was exactly where the big ghost’s hand was just now. Its coldness was swept away, leaving only warmth.
“Follow me into town.”
Fu Qing’s tone could not be refused, and his expression was always cold. Bai Gu raised his brows when he heard his words, he was startled, and subconsciously looked at Wu Rong. This was the first time he had met Fu Qing, and it was also the first time he had met someone who dared to speak to Wu Rong like that. He was really very courageous!
Would Wu Rong be angry?
But his inexplicable intuition prevented him from taking the initiative this time.
“Mm.”
Wu Rong was relieved that Fu Qing didn’t ask about the big ghost. And Wu Rong’s two unhesitating responses made Fu Qing’s expression calm down, and the redness in his eyes faded away. The Taoist priest lowered his head, his white and slender neck carved like flawless jade. He held Wu Rong’s hand, which was the one written on by the ghost. Wu Rong’s heart suddenly skipped a beat. Could it be that Fu Qing discovered something?
But Fu Qing just held his hand, and his voice was cold, like ice and stones colliding: “Be careful.”
After a pause, he looked into Wu Rong’s eyes and said seriously, “Don’t make me worry.”
Hiss–
Bai Gu, who was watching all this, sucked in a breath of cold air.
He wasn’t a clueless person about the matter of people falling in love, but…
Why do I feel that this atmosphere is… not quite right?
Bai Gu seemed to understand something, no wonder Wu Rong didn’t let Fu Qing see that bloody ghost!
“Mm.”
Seeing Wu Rong’s calm and unashamed face, on the other hand, Bai Gu felt a new awe towards him.
The author has something to say:
The master of time management, Shan Rong, is running out of time, what to do?
Let Master Ling Yun add time for you!
Editor: Cloud Chip Cake
Poor fellow, they did not even think of him again
Thank you for the update ❤️💯
Bai Gu figuring out the triangle 😂😂
Thanks for the chapter!!! ❤️❤️
I wonder how much damage Master Ling Yun took. Fu Qing looking picture-perfect isn’t a good sign. At least it didn’t mention that there was blood on his sword. It really isn’t Master Ling Yun’s day, is it?
Poor Ling Yun’s gonna have a heart attack if he sees them holding hands 🤣🤣🤣
Thanks for the chapter!!!
Shouldn’t it be PTSD Not PSTD?
Bai Gu’s thoughts are always so fun to read – he’s competing with a dog for Rong Rong’s favor, he’s making full on pink-colored skits in his mind about Wu Rong and Fu Qing – he’s so full of thoughts~ 😂🤣😂
Yikes! So, running with the headcanon (or straightup canon??) that Nan is the soul Fu Qing is missing, how in the world is this gonna end? 🫣 are they gonna merge or stay separate and enter in a harmonious Poly(?) relationship with our Wu Rong?? 🤔 sigh so many questions, so little answers~ 😞
lol, it’s 1v1 so either he ends up with one but since both are gongs I’m assuming they will merge into one 😂🤣
Also, it’s only right to compete with a dog, that dog was the one who led thousands of ghost to conquer land xD
The dog really is the MVP of the Rong Gang~ 🤣
lol it really deserves to be Xiao Wu’s one and only dog!!
I feel like Bai Gu will be impressed no matter what Wu Rong does at this point lol.
