At Prison Emperor's words, Ling Mei wavered.
She was not entirely certain that the master of the Netherferry Ship was still alive, nor could she be entirely certain that its master could still control the Netherferry Ship.
If he could, why had he not acted earlier? Why act only now?
Prison Emperor had merely raised a question, yet Ling Mei had already fallen into self-doubt.
The Netherferry Ship was simply too important to her. If she lost it, her combat strength would plummet, and her status in the Ghost World would fall from the upper echelon to the middle tier.
