"This..." Xu Yin's dark brows drew together slightly as she sank into memory. "That's right. When I was pregnant with Xuan'er, I once met the Ghost Emperor Miaotian on a narrow road."
"What? Yin'er, why did you never tell me?"
Before Lin Xuan could speak, the refined man had already gone pale with shock.
"What would telling Senior Brother have done? It would only have made you worry for nothing. Didn't I come out of it unharmed?" Xu Yin turned back and said as much.
"What exactly happened at the time?"
Lin Xuan likewise revealed a trace of surprise. Back then, the four great Ghost Emperors had stirred You Province into a storm of blood and gore. Later, when heaven and earth underwent a strange change and cultivators from another continent intervened, the Yinhun were beaten until their forces collapsed in rout. Even so, they had still not been wiped out completely.
There was no need to mention the other minor figures for now.
Of the four great Ghost Emperors alone, aside from Li Tian and Xuan Tian, who had died in battle on the spot, Hao Tian, that crafty old fox, had escaped without a trace, and in the end had even thrown in his lot with Li Soul Valley.
His cultivation no longer amounted to much in Lin Xuan's eyes, but his deep, scheming mind still made one shudder.
There was also the Ghost Emperor Miaotian, the only woman among the four. Lin Xuan had never met her. It was said that she had vanished mysteriously during that great battle.
Some said she had already fallen, while others said she was still lurking quietly in some corner, but as time passed, people had already forgotten the Ghost Emperor who had once called the wind and summoned the rain.
