To Have Eyes Yet Fail to Recognize Mount Tai

"What an ugly mug."

Verdant Green Maiden cursed disdainfully. Ning Lian chuckled sheepishly without arguing back.

To be scolded by such a big shot was an honor for him!

Rich Flower was planted into the ground.

Its aura instantly cowed every ghost. All of them stared at the Blade Mountain Wood, their expressions trembling with shock.

Verdant Green Maiden's gaze fell upon the others again as she slowly reassured them, "You needn't be afraid! I'm not someone who can't distinguish good from evil. Ghosts can be good or bad, and you're merely conducting ordinary trade in the ghost market, not committing evil deeds, right?"

Verdant Green Maiden's words were quite fair.

The ghosts all nodded.

"Yes, yes!"

"My lord is wise!"

"My lord is truly a living blue sky!"

A few nodded so vigorously that their eyeballs shook loose, only for them to stuff them back in.

Verdant Green Maiden: "..."

Were these things in the ghost market ghosts or corpses?

Calm down—don't shake yourselves to pieces!

After some reassurance, order gradually returned to the ghost market. No one harbored the slightest dissatisfaction toward Verdant Green Maiden, this uninvited guest.

Though the ghost market had never allowed living people inside.

Still...

Setting aside Verdant Green Maiden's strong and powerful fists, most of the ghosts in the market came from ordinary backgrounds.

They had once been living people too. They were merely dead now.

Why fuss over it?

Thinking this way, everyone calmed down considerably.

Ning Lian continued leading Verdant Green Maiden onward.

This time, he was much more attentive.

"This way, my lady..."

"Ah!"

"My lady, watch your step. The road here is uneven."

Verdant Green Maiden glanced at him and laughed softly.

"You really are a fine lackey! Were you a professional at this when you were alive?"

"Hehe."
