Fantasy: I'm Really Not A Supreme Master!-Chapter 493 - 445: An Old Ghost in the Great Wilderness?_3
"The envoy from the Yangwei Dynasty has arrived to present a congratulatory gift!"
The announcement suddenly echoed through the air.
Within the great hall, everyone frowned.
Not a single power or Sect Gate had come to congratulate or witness Mu Wanqing’s ascension to the throne.
Why would the Yangwei Dynasty be so kindhearted? And why only now?
"Please!"
Mu Wanqing spoke.
Before long, a middle-aged man was already smiling as he ascended the steps of the great hall.
"I am Yang Xiao from the Yangwei Dynasty, here in the name of our Emperor to deliver a congratulatory gift to the Empress."
With that, he took out a jade box.
Mu Rantian took the jade box and after inspecting it for danger, cautiously handed it over to Mu Wanqing.
Upon opening it, Mu Wanqing saw a wisp of light silver mist within the jade box.
This was a wisp of... Yin Qi!
"This Yin Qi was collected from the body of the Pegasus Yin Spirit. During the Festival of Honoring the Divine, our dynasty will offer this as a tribute to the Divine Spirits. All powers participating in the festival will also get a share of this boon," Yang Xiao said with a slight smile.
Mu Wanqing pondered for a moment before replying,
"I understand. The envoy may rest in the city."
Yang Xiao gave a bow and then withdrew.
"It’s a conspiracy!"
Mu Zhenkong spoke up directly, "This is the Yangwei Dynasty’s Banquet of Hongmen!"
Mu Rantian also nodded, adding, "We must be on guard."
However, Mu Wanqing was quite indifferent, saying, "No matter what, let’s go see Senior Li first!"
No matter the conspiracies, nor the myriad of demons or monsters, as long as she thought of Senior Li, her heart was filled with immense calm.
...
And at this moment,
Somewhere on the borders of the Eastern Wilderness, a small frontier town.
A sudden burst of Yin wind swept through, sending the town’s residents into a panic.
Amidst the Yin wind, there were continuous wails of ghosts!
"Ghosts, there are ghosts!"
"Save me..."
The cries for help were unceasing throughout the town.
Long after, the Yin wind passed, revealing a stretch of wilderness.
The Yin wind transformed into a man, who looked as if he had starved to death, his skin clinging to his bones, his eye sockets deeply sunken, terrifying to behold.
"I sent you to gather information, and you started feasting again? You truly live up to the name Starved Ghost," said another figure, materializing from a Yin wind, cloaked in pale clothes with a crimson tongue that hung half a meter long.
This was a Hanged Ghost!
"It’s boring there. That little town only had two or three cultivators; hardly enough to fill me..."
The Starved Ghost replied.
"So, did you find out any news about the Lord of Ghosts?"
The Hanged Ghost continued to inquire.
"No news of the Lord of Ghosts... but in this domain, there seems to be... a Yin Spirit," said the Starved Ghost. "A Pegasus... must taste delicious!"
Upon hearing this, the Hanged Ghost was taken aback. "A Pegasus? There’s such a Yin Spirit? What a fine thing indeed!"
"We must report this to our leader!"

The two ghostly beings vanished from the spot.
Before long, they appeared amidst the Chaos Burial Mounds.
This place was filled with graves.
At a glance, these graves seemed to form a certain pattern, as if a secret ghostly breath was circulating amidst alternating white and black mists.
And at the center of all the graves, there was a large tomb!
Fresh blood was poured over the large tomb.
"Reporting to our leader, we have obtained information... There is a trace of the Pegasus Yin Spirit in the Eastern Wilderness!"
As soon as these words were spoken, the blood-covered large tomb suddenly cracked open.
Yin fog billowed as a ghostly being emerged.
It was a cold and indifferent old man with a complexion like dead ashes, his eyes sinister beyond measure.
"Pegasus? A Yin Spirit?"
The old ghost’s hoarse voice came forth, saying,
"The Pegasus only exists in legends, absent in all the heavens and myriad realms of the universe. Its Yin Spirit, appearing in this petty Star Realm?"
It seemed somewhat doubtful.
"But it’s possible... In the past, the Lord of Ghosts barely escaped from the hands of the Destruction Star Lord and didn’t return to the Ghost Domain. We’ve searched many places over the years before discovering this location. I’ve wondered why the Great Ruins Realm, a mere small Star Realm, would attract the interest of our esteemed Lord of Ghosts..."
"Now it seems there may be an explanation for why the Lord of Ghosts came here..."
The old ghost looked up, a trace of black light flashing in his eyes, and declared,
"I must obtain this Pegasus!"
"Once we find the Lord of Ghosts, this would serve as an excellent tonic for him!"
