Chapter 231: Chapter 184: Master Xu, Wang has come to have a cup of wedding wine! _3
Ma Long, Yang Fan, and the others insisted on going together, so Xu Yang had no choice but to agree.
As they entered Long Flow River, Yang Fan couldn’t help but ask, “Xu Yang, did we make a mistake?… You’re here to get married, but why have we come to a mountain? As far as I know, no one lives in these mountains?”
At this moment, the sun had already begun to set, and the sky gradually darkened.
Suddenly, the sounds of drums and gongs could be heard, followed by cheerful suona music.
Yang Fan and the other male students stared in amazement as they saw mist swirling around in the scenic area ahead.
Through the mist, a group of people playing drums and gongs appeared.
These people looked odd – some were floating in mid-air, some were beating drums with their tongues, some had only heads but no bodies, and others had bodies but no heads!
“My god!”
“Ghosts!”
These classmates didn’t know that Xu Yang was marrying a ghost.
A timid student screamed in fear and turned to run away, only to be stopped by Ma Long’s firm grip!
“Look at your behavior. Just a few minor demons, what are you afraid of?”
Ma Long scoffed!
At this moment, he looked extremely confident, with his head held high and a calm demeanor. He casually said, “Ghosts like these, I’ve seen plenty. Even at my own home, I keep a talented dancing female ghost to entertain me. I’ll introduce you guys sometime.”
His right hand was in a cast, and a bandage hung around his neck, completely forgetting the scene when he was initially scared out of his wits and couldn’t even bother to put on his pants.
“Master!”
“Master!”
At this moment, the group that emerged from the mist stopped, and all the Yin spirits saluted Xu Yang. One of them said, “Master, the young lady ordered us to wait for you here and accompany you up the mountain to get married!”
Of course, a wedding procession was needed for the marriage.
Yue Qiluo had clearly thought of everything.
Yang Fan and the others stared at Xu Yang in disbelief.
Ma Long proudly said, “Xu Yang is just marrying a few female ghosts. Why are you so shocked?”
Xu Yang took out a handful of paper money, waved it into the air, and set it ablaze. In the hands of those Yin spirits, crisp new banknotes appeared one by one. The spirits were very excited and thanked Xu Yang in unison, “Thank you, Master!”
Xu Yang said, “This is what you deserve. Come, follow me up the mountain!”
As the sound of drums and gongs resumed, the numerous ghosts redoubled their efforts, and even a majestic black horse was brought forward. The horse was draped in armor, and its eyes emitted a ghostly fire.
“Master.”
“This is the Ghost Market General’s steed, specially borrowed by the young lady for you!”
Xu Yang mounted the horse and couldn’t help but exclaim, “What a fine horse!”
He had heard a little about the Ghost Market “General”.
Unlike Yue Qiluo, Chiyan Ghost King, and other Xi Xia Ghost Market managers, the “General” was the strongest and most powerful manager of Xi Xia Ghost Market without exception. It was said that he had once followed the Lord of the Ghost Market and rarely appeared in public or interfered with other managers’ conflicts.
The grand wedding procession, cutting through the mountain mist, headed straight towards Yue Mansion!
At this time,
The Chiyan Ghost King’s mansion was also bustling with activity.
Outside his ghost tower, thousands of Yin spirits had gathered, covering the mountains and plains. Among these spirits, there were not many minor demons, mostly fierce ghosts. Among these fierce ghosts, several Red Robes could be seen. Judging from their aura alone, there seemed to be more than thirty or forty Red Robe level-ghosts!
This was not an exaggeration!
Although Xi Xia Province was small, with its population ranking third last in the country and only over 7 million people, it was located on the Loess Plateau, and many mountains were uninhabited!
Furthermore, an “ecological migration” policy had been implemented ten years ago, leaving countless deserted villages, temples, and abandoned schools in the mountains. These places were rarely visited by people, making them the perfect hiding places for ghosts and malevolent beings.
Many powerful ghosts usually didn’t harm humans.
Otherwise, how could the team stationed in Wu City manage the entire city with just a few Supernatural Affairs Bureau members?
Inside the Ghost Tower, the scene was even more impressive.
In addition to Chiyan Ghost King and Huishan Demon, six other Ghost Kings had gathered. Most of the fierce ghosts and Red Robes outside had come with them.
Among these six Ghost Kings, two were also managers of the Xi Xia Ghost Market. The other four were powerful local Xi Xia Ghost Kings who ruled over various territories. They all had powerful auras and were extremely ferocious!
One of the Ghost Kings was only about 1.7 meters tall, but he was extremely fat.
Sitting on a chair, he looked like a pile of fat.
With a chicken leg in his left hand and a jar of wine in his right, he sneered at the empty table, “Chiyan, you invited us here so grandly, but you didn’t even prepare dinner. Isn’t that beneath your status as the Chiyan Ghost King?”
Chiyan Ghost King laughed, “Ghostlord Taodi, don’t be angry. It’s not that I’m stingy and didn’t provide dinner for you all, but there’s a big feast tonight.”
“Oh?”
Ghostlord Taodi’s eyes sparkled with greed. He licked his lips and asked, “What kind of feast?”
This fellow was a gluttonous ghost!
He had died from overeating in his previous life, which resulted in various diseases. After death, his obsession with food turned him into a gluttonous ghost.
He ate everything.
Even other ghosts were not safe from him. As he gradually grew stronger, he eventually became a ruling Ghost King!
Upon hearing about the “big feast”, Ghostlord Taodi couldn’t contain his excitement.
Chiyan Ghost King laughed, “Tonight is the wedding day of the two young ladies from the Yue family….”
