Crimson Powder Bride replied in a soft, sweet voice, "That's right!"
Pei Ling furrowed his brow. A subordinate of a taboo... The taboo probably hadn't noticed yet.
Once he'd claimed the fortune and left You Su Fen, he had to dispel the Crimson Powder Bride's Chaos God Parasitic Curse and Great Evolution Curse of Inner Demons as soon as possible!
Being hunted by a Void Returning Ghostly Being was better than directly offending a taboo!
With that thought, Pei Ling collected himself. He ignored "Yu" and "Tan Nu" in the distance and continued gazing at the towering, imposing gate before him.
A moment later, he transmitted an instruction. "Send a few Ghostly Beings ahead to scout the way."
Crimson Powder Bride nodded slightly. "Yes, Master."
Her blood-red sleeve shifted. Her slender, pale hand curled in a loose grip, and more than a dozen Ghostly Beings burst out of the ground. Their bodies were blue-black, wrapped in Yin Qi, and grotesquely misshapen. Without hesitation, they headed toward the gate.
Halfway there, boundless hatred surged from their bodies, as if they were reliving the most loathsome and infuriating injustice of their lives.
The next instant, the gate sucked all that hatred away.
Soon, the Ghostly Beings scattered too, vanishing in a flash like smoke and clouds.
Seeing this, Pei Ling nodded slightly. It was the Grievance Nightmare divine abilities!
But it was nothing like the Grievance Nightmare divine abilities he could use. If he wanted to approach the gate, he would have to use them to resist it as well.
At that moment, Crimson Powder Bride swept her wide sleeves and summoned a second batch of Ghostly Beings, preparing to send them toward the gate.
Pei Ling raised a hand slightly and transmitted, "That's enough. I'll go over and test it myself."
