The Ghost King turned to look at the two Demon Sect seniors following at Luo Yunji's side, his thoughts unreadable.
"So..." He Dazhi began, then pressed his lips together and looked toward the Ghost King and Old Ancestor Fengyue.
Just as the two of them were growing impatient from waiting, He Dazhi finally said slowly, "Perhaps the Forbidden Domain no longer contains what you two are looking for."
Because the talisman paper was inside the "Spirit-Concentrating Pearl" Luo Yunji wore around his neck, while the sacred artifact, the Ice Bowl, was currently tucked away in Zhang Xiaofan's Bamboo Bag. In that case, this so-called Forbidden Domain likely no longer held what the Ghost King and the others sought.
It wasn't that He Dazhi had never considered letting the Ghost King and Old Ancestor Fengyue enter with them. After all, their fighting strength was obvious. If danger arose, they could lend support, but they might also become a liability.
So at this moment, he wanted the two of them to stay behind. Compared with assistance, he was more worried that these two would become liabilities.
