Shi Haiyuan is already a grandfather, and his eldest grandson is in his twenties.

He used to be romantic when he was young, but in recent years, he has fewer and fewer desires. No way, old age; the hardware conditions are not good.

But at this moment, his mind rippled again. He felt that he had regained his youthful vitality, and he fell in love with a man with a scar on his face!

The man’s posture was so graceful that he was instantly addicted to it, unable to extricate himself.

He loves this man to the core!

Shi Haiyuan stared at the person in front of him, and was slashed.

Even if he was cut, he still couldn’t restrain his heartbeat!

He loves this man so much, loves this man so much!

Shi Haiyuan was hit again.

Wait, what happened? Why am I slashed, injured, but my mind is full of strange things?

Shi Haiyuan woke up instantly and realized that something was wrong.

How did he get distracted in a fight?

He even… suddenly felt that the disfigured Ghost King had clear eyebrows and beautiful eyes, making his heart move?

Is he crazy?!

No, it’s not that he’s crazy, it must be something the Ghost King did.

The Ghost King is so scary, he possesses sorcery!

No wonder this person can come and go without a trace in the Holy City. No wonder many well-known masters fought against him and finally returned in defeat!

It turns out that he has such means!

If he hadn’t woken up by being slashed twice in a row, he’d still be staring at him now.

Shi Haiyuan was disgusted, but in addition to being disgusted, he also felt that the person in front of him was really beautiful…

At this moment, he saw the face of the Ghost King, and instantly sobered up.

This person is so ugly, and also a man. He can’t possibly fall in love with this man!

Must be a mistake!

Shi Haiyuan was immersed in strange emotions and struggled endlessly, and his actions naturally slowed down as he struggled.

He was slashed by the Ghost King again.

As a ninth-level warrior, Shi Haiyuan’s body is like a steel frame. Ordinary people can’t cut him at all, but the Ghost King was also a ninth-level warrior.

Even after instinctively avoiding three hits, and despite his restricted movements and open wounds, Shi Haiyuan was not injured severely at all.

If he doesn’t escape, he will die here!

Shi Haiyuan didn’t dare continue fighting – he turned around and ran away.

The Ghost King didn’t react for a bit.

He knew Shi Haiyuan. When he was in the Holy City, he was his senior, and he despised him for hiding behind a woman. He felt that his wife shouldn’t be looking for a man based on their face.

This old man is old now, and it is normal for his combat power to decline, but is he really this weak?

Or, is it because his family’s Xiaojiu’s strength has increased again?

Although his Xiaojiu’s combat ability is not good, its talent and skills are very strong, and can confuse others. Just now, Shi Haiyuan looked confused.

It’s just that the effect is much better than before. He also felt that Shi Haiyuan’s eyes didn’t seem quite right.

Seeing Shi Haiyuan run away, the Ghost King chased after him without hesitation.

If it was before, he would never chase him, after all he had to protect Xie Yunnan.

But now, isn’t there a god-level warrior by Xie Yunnan’s side?! Without hesitation, the Ghost King chased out.

Seeing the Ghost King chasing after him, Shi Haiyuan ran faster, and then he saw Meng Yan and the others.

Shi Haiyuan said hoarsely: “Run! Quick!”

He has good concentration, and is old enough to resist the temptation of the Ghost King. But if the people in front of him can’t resist… these people might turn to attack him!

Meng Yan and the others rushed over upon seeing Shi Haiyuan’s signal, but as soon as they entered the plantation, they encountered Shi Haiyuan who was fleeing.

Shi Haiyuan, a ninth-level warrior, escaped with blood all over his body?

How many minutes has it been since Shi Haiyuan sent the signal? And he already became like this?

Meng Yan was shocked, he has always been timid… No, he cherishes life, so he turned around and ran without hesitation.

When the two eighth-level warriors around Meng Yan saw this situation, how could they dare to fight against the Ghost King? Of course they ran!

They can’t even beat Shi Haiyuan, let alone the Ghost King who beat Shi Haiyuan like this!

It’s just… After they caught a glimpse of the Ghost King, they suddenly felt that this person was quite good-looking.

Are their aesthetics so weird?

The two didn’t have time to think about it, and ran away quickly.

The Ghost King: “???”

The Ghost King stopped abruptly, not daring to chase.

After all, Shi Haiyuan has both warriors and priests on his side, and he can’t beat them.

Watching Shi Haiyuan and others leave, the Ghost King turned around and walked back.

The amount of worry he had when seeing Shi Haiyuan earlier matched how speechless he was now.

He thought there would be a big battle today, but Shi Haiyuan didn’t resist. After being slashed three times, he ran away?

When the Ghost King returned to his residence, he saw Xia Qing and his other two subordinates guarding the house.

“Boss, are you alright!” Xia Qing immediately asked when she saw the Ghost King coming back.

Their boss had instructed them a long time ago that if they were in danger, the most important thing was to protect Xie Yunnan… so they didn’t follow him out.

As for the battle between Ghost King and Shi Haiyuan, they didn’t see it clearly.

The Ghost King said: “It’s okay.”

“Boss, who is it?” Xia Qing asked again.

“It’s Shi Haiyuan.”

“Ah!” Xia Qing exclaimed.

Shi Haiyuan is a ninth-level warrior. Although he’s considered weak among many ninth-level warriors, no matter how weak he is, he’s still a ninth-level warrior!

He was beaten away by their boss?

Their boss is too strong!

The Ghost King said again: “Meng Yan and two others were also there… they should be seventh or eighth-level senior warriors.”

Xia Qing and the others inhaled a deep breath.

A ninth-level warrior and an intermediate priest were chased away by their boss. The boss deserves to be the boss!

“They ran away, and shouldn’t come again for the time being… You guys should go back to rest.” The Ghost King said, and went back to his room.

He has been sleeping in a folding bed in his room these past few days.

He dedicated the big bed to his son and son’s partner, curling himself up in a tiny rollaway bed…but the benefits are huge.

Not to mention his injuries getting better, practicing Duan Changqing’s exercises also paid off.

Because of his son, Ghost King attached great importance to learning it immediately, and… the effect was really good.

He even felt that his injuries improved a lot as he practiced, and the connection with his companion beast also became more intimate during the practice.

The fact that he can beat Shi Haiyuan today should be related to those exercises given by Duan Changqing.

The Ghost King who returned to the room was very excited, but Xie Yunnan was a little worried. “Master, are you alright? What happened just now?”

“I’m fine, just a former enemy of mine came to ask for trouble… Don’t worry, I’ve already driven them away.” After the Ghost King finished speaking, he glanced at Duan Changqing. He actually had a lot to say to him… but his son is here.

In the previous battle, Duan Changqing and Xie Yunnan stayed inside and watched.

Duan Changqing felt a little pity.

The Ghost King wore such an ugly mask and fought against his opponent for a short time, using his charm to attack the opponent, so that his opponent ran away.

In the world of self-cultivation, which demon cultivator didn’t dress up beautifully when using this exercise? Only in this way can there be a multiplicative effect.

But the person in front of him… wore such a scarred mask, which greatly weakens the effect.

Even so, the Ghost King’s success has much to do with the nine-tail fox. A nine-tailed fox’s innate talent is to charm others, and will automatically charm others with its innate skills.

But it won’t be so obvious.

The next day when Xie Yunnan was away, the Ghost King took the opportunity to ask Duan Changqing: “Yesterday Shi Haiyuan was slashed three times by me because of the exercises I practiced? Is the effect so good?”

“If you show your face, the effect will be better.” Duan Changqing said.

The Ghost King doesn’t look as good as Xie Yunnan, but because his face has not seen the sun all year round, his skin is whiter than Xie Yunnan, and the corners of his eyes and brows are even more charming… His charm is stronger than Xie Yunnan.

“Why?” The Ghost King was puzzled. “It’s my companion beast’s innate skills that confuses others. What does it have to do with my face?”

Duan Changqing didn’t speak, and looked at the Ghost King deeply.

In fact, it’s quite good to use such a face. It can block many wild bees and butterflies.

Plus when he fights, others will suffer and people will doubt life.

At this moment, Shi Haiyuan is still doubting his life.

He actually fell in love with the Ghost King! Really scary!

The innate skills of the Ghost King’s companion beast turned out to make people fall in love with him?

Those who have fought with the Ghost King in the past hardly mentioned the process of their battle, nor could they tell what the Ghost King’s companion beast was… Is it because they all encountered the same thing as him?

Shi Haiyuan was distracted while receiving treatment… The injuries he suffered were all skin trauma. It wasn’t serious, so he could meet people the next day.

Meng Yan came in with the two eighth-level warriors who acted with them last night, and saw Shi Haiyuan’s face full of depression.

“What happened last night?” Meng Yan asked.

Shi Haiyuan was embarrassed.

Meng Yan asked again: “The Ghost King… is he difficult to deal with?”

Shi Haiyuan said solemnly: “I don’t want to face him again.”

Meng Yan didn’t expect Shi Haiyuan to say this, and gasped.

The Ghost King is so powerful? Shi Haiyuan, a ninth-level expert, doesn’t dare fight him again?

They’re careless!

Jiao Qinyun is the older of the two mid-level priests who came to Hongye City. He also wanted the treasure in the hands of the High Priest. Last night, when Meng Yan and the others acted, he hid in the dark to observe, and planned to be the mantis who stalks the cicada and the oriole.

As a result, Meng Yan and the others ran out soon after!

The Ghost King is so powerful? Or… the plantation is actually a trap.

He’d better get someone to explore the way first.
