King Yama, Black and White Impermanence, Meng Po, and the ghost constables... Was the Fengdu Mission real or not?
They all said it was real. Fang Shenyan had never participated in it, so he made no judgment.
But he knew that before entering Ghost Gate Pass, the ghost constable that had escaped had been holding an Oil-paper Umbrella, not a Prayer Wheel.
Gray skin, gray clothes, thin and withered—that was indeed characteristic of a ghost constable.
Arresting ghosts and hunting supernatural entities truly was the ghost constables' function.
But Fang Shenyan did not believe a single ghost constable could inspire such intense fear in him. Even if King Yama himself had arrived, it should have been impossible.
Ever since the last cycle ended, he had been thinking about the meaning behind the ghost constable's existence.
This ghost was far too unusual, and far too suspicious.
He had once believed that Gao Zhihua had survived until now because the ghost constable roamed the Old World, opposing Ta and the Anomalous Ghosts of the New World.
But Gao Zhihua's true identity had been exposed at the end of the previous cycle. Clearly, he did not need the ghost constable's protection.
So what purpose did the ghost constable serve in these two worlds?
From what he knew so far, it only attacked Anomalous Ghosts. It paid no attention to the Eye monsters or the charred ghost tide.
Moreover, its abilities were extraordinarily powerful—an unsolvable threat to ghosts, attacking indiscriminately.
At the same time, its level was suspected to be extremely, extremely high. Not only people, but even ghosts had to avoid it. Even Gao Zhihua was no exception.
Fang Shenyan had a bold guess: it was an outsider.
This "outsider" did not merely refer to the Haunted House, but to the entirety of
