Xue An’s expression instantly became rather peculiar.
Of course, he knew who Zhuge Cang was.
The foremost diviner in the Multiverse, whose mastery of divination was said to encompass all of creation.
Although, in Xue An’s eyes, he seemed like nothing more than a charlatan. Yet, due to his mysterious and uncanny abilities, he was a presence no one in the Multiverse dared provoke.
Even the masters of those great Void sects had to show him some courtesy.
However, Xue An had a pretty good relationship with him. Back when he was in the Tian Zhao Star Domain, Xue An had even intervened to protect Zhuge Cang’s family.
But the problem was, Zhuge Cang was someone whose whereabouts were always unpredictable, to the point where even Xue An could hardly locate him.
So how had he come to the Ghost Realm, and how did he know this Zang Xueling?
These questions lingered in Xue An’s mind.
Zang Xueling, on the other hand, was trembling with fear, her face pale.
Because even now, Xue An was still gripping her neck.
Although, given her level of strength, she didn’t really need to breathe.
Yet under Xue An’s control, she felt as though she was being gradually peeled away from this world.
Once completely severed, she would be like a fish out of water, left at the mercy of others.
That feeling made her tremble all over.
But she dared not show even the slightest resistance.
Because she knew very well just how terrifying this youthful-looking, frail-seeming boy before her truly was.
He was the one who had once suppressed all the Multiverse’s most powerful beings, leaving them unable to even lift their heads!
At that moment, Xue An suddenly released his grip.
Zang Xueling fell into the void with a thud, breathing heavily in gasps.
Meanwhile, the crowd whose hearts had been caught in their throats couldn’t help but exhale in relief at the sight.
Whatever the case, Xue An had refrained from killing.
At the same time, Xue An stood before Zang Xueling, his face expressionless, and said, "Now tell me exactly what’s going on. And how do you know that old charlatan?"
Zang Xueling nodded, took a deep breath, and began recounting her past.
The truth was quite simple.
Zang Xueling, though a member of the Ghost Race and ruler of this particular realm, held beliefs quite different from other ghosts!
She loathed brutality and bloodshed. As such, under her governance, this realm remained detached from worldly conflicts. Humans and ghosts coexisted harmoniously, creating a place that could almost be described as a utopia.
It was in this context that Zang Xueling accidentally encountered an elderly passerby.
At the time, Zang Xueling had no idea that this man was none other than Zhuge Cang, whose mere presence shook the cosmos and bent countless mighty figures to his will.
She only thought the elder was extraordinarily strange because everything he said struck directly at the core of her being and invariably came true.
Under such circumstances, Zang Xueling naturally held him in utmost reverence.
Zhuge Cang ended up living in this realm for a while.
But on a certain day, Zhuge Cang suddenly told Zang Xueling he was leaving!
Zang Xueling naturally tried to persuade him to stay.
But Zhuge Cang merely smiled and told Zang Xueling,
After observing for some time, he’d concluded that Zang Xueling, despite being of the Ghost Race, possessed a kind heart. Hence, he decided to help her.
And then Zhuge Cang had shared all kinds of information about Xue An with her.
When Zang Xueling first heard that the Divine Fire Ghost Sovereign of the Ghost Realm was actually the infamous Red Lotus Immortal Venerable of the Multiverse, she was utterly stunned.
"Correct! Moreover, the detailed circumstances of these two families should be well known to this young girl over there!" As she spoke, Zang Xueling turned her gaze toward Luo Jingting, who sat dazed on the ground in the distance.
