A bit of suspicion appears on the Ghost Envoyâs face, then itâs immediately followed by a snort . He waves a hand, gesturing to bring the two people along .
The moment they go outside the room, Muyan hears various indignant and panic-stricken voices throughout the Inner chambers .
âImpudent, Iâm a doctor that has been invited by your Ghost Lord, and Iâve come to treat the Ghost Lordâs illness â you people actually to dare to be so rude and impudent!â
âDonât you people know who I am? How dare you raise a hand against me!â
âAh! Let go, unhand me, where are you taking me!â
â¦â¦
With the chaotic scene, and angry derisions and screams, the feelings of fear and alarm s spreads within the entire Ghost Wind Valley .

However, the doctorsâ resistance is completely futile .
The Ghost Envoysâ actions are very boorish and brutal, thereâs completely none of the past few daysâ diligence and eager attentiveness in their treatment of these doctors .
This makes a phrase flash through Muyanâs mindâ
The map unrolls and the knife is revealed!*
For those three days, Liu Se and s.h.i.+ Lanling were probably preparing something, so theyâve been biding their time .
Now that their preparations are complete, thereâs no need to keep up the pretense any longer, and they reveal their true colors .
Soon, all the doctors are escorted by the Ghost Envoys to arrive in a s.p.a.cious hall .

Thereâs no sick Ghost Lord there .
Thereâs only the fully wrapped and covered Ghost King Liu Se, as well as the gaudily-dressed and heavily painted in makeup s.h.i.+ Lanling, sitting at the Head Table .
The hall is surrounded by Ghost Envoys in similar uniforms .
Compared with the Ghost Envoys in the Ghost City, their cultivation is higher by a whole major stratum .
Near them, youâd be able to smell the heavy scent of blood oozing out of their bodies .
A testament to the excessive amount of human lives that have moistened their hands .
The dozen or so doctors, who are prestigious and reputable people outside, are herded into the hall like lambs for slaughter .
All of their faces are filled with unease, but they keep quiet out of fear, not daring to speak .

At this moment, a lot of them are starting to regret it .
For the secret skill of Pill Condensation, they shouldnât have run to the Ghost Wind Valley to take risks .
âGhost King, what is the meaning of this?!â suddenly, a resonant voice rises, breaking the consuming silence, âWe are doctors that youâve personally invited to come and treat the Ghost Lord, not prisoners . Is this how the Ghost City shows its hospitality?â
Everyone simultaneously turns to the source of the voice .
Seeing the ident.i.ty of the person whoâs speaking fervently, a lot of people show expressions like theyâre relieved from a burden .
âSo Dr . Song is here, thatâs great!â
âYes, yes! Dr . Song is highly respected, thereâs no one in the entire Yanwu Continent who is without some degree of consideration for him . Heâs a person that even the Royal Family of Jing Cheng gives esteem and gratification . â
The person who spoke up is Dr . Song of Jing Chengâs Longevity Hall, ill.u.s.trious and celebrated in the Yanwu Continent, one can say that he is an existence that is second only to the G.o.dly Doctor Qian Qing .
In a moment, another grizzly-haired, droopy-eyed elderly man opens his mouth: âSimply making trouble, what about the Ghost Lord? Where is he? This time, the Ghost Lord must give us a reasonable explanation . Otherwise, we would absolutely not be willing to take things lying down . This old man will report to the Emperor, and let His Majesty personally exact justice for me!â
Looking at the old man who spoke up, someone cries out in surprise: âAh! That is Huang Yaoâs Dr . Du!â
âHah, Ghost City is in trouble this time, Dr . Du is the Imperial Physician of the Emperor of Huang Yao, he refines many of the draughts in Huang Yaoâs Ghost City! More than that, Dr . Du has a violent temper . By p.i.s.sing him off, the Ghost City will face consequences this time!â
Soon after, the respected doctors rise up one after another, criticizing Liu Se and s.h.i.+ Lanling .
In the wake of these doctors rising up, the originally anxious and worried group immediately has their minds stabilize, becoming arrogant .
*based from a story at the end of the Warring States period . From what I understand, someone presents a map to the king, with the excuse of ceding the area to the king, but actually smuggling in a knife in the innermost part of the roll . The character for âMapâ could also mean âschemeâ or âplotâ . So itâs âthe plot unravelsâ .
