Someone had actually taken Gongshu Yi away first—and brought him up the mountain.
The few old monsters from the Mo Family and the Gongshu Family should have been on the mountain.
The only question was whether the person who took Gongshu Yi away belonged to the Mo Family or the Gongshu Family.
"Did you fight with the person who came to take him away?" Old Ghost asked, narrowing his eyes.
The man gave a bitter smile. "No. He also took out an Ancestor Token at the time, but it wasn't from our Mo Family—it was from the Gongshu Family. So we had no reason to stop him from taking the man away."
Jiang Xiaohui asked, "You've never seen an Ancestor Token before. How did you know whether the one he showed you was real?"
Old Ghost explained, "Don't worry. Ancestor Tokens can't be faked, and no one in the underground city would dare counterfeit one."
"If that's the case, then let's go up the mountain," I said.
The man looked somewhat troubled.
He said, "The person who took Gongshu Yi away said that only one of you may go up the mountain." After saying that, he seemed to realize something was wrong and hurriedly added to Old Ghost, "Naturally, Patriarch, you may go up as well."
What a joke. The man before him was the Mo Family's ancestor. If Old Ghost wanted to go up the mountain, they naturally would not stop him.
Old Ghost glanced at me. Without hesitation, I said to Jiang Xiaohui, "You and Miss Gongshu wait here. I'll go up and take a look." Only then did Old Ghost say, "I'll accompany you, young friend. I know the roads on this mountain well, and if anything truly happens, I believe they'll give me some respect."
