The Rebirth of the Cultivation Leader Qin Zhao as a Celebrity-Chapter 460 - 458 Qing Dai, the Little Princess

"Don’t be in a hurry to find him."

Chu Yan said nonchalantly, "First, follow me in the Mortal World."

As his words fell, Chu Yan sealed the Ghost King’s mouth with a spell.

It would be better for him to play mute rather than risk him saying something he shouldn’t when he sees Qin Zhao.

"Mmmph!"

The Ghost King was puzzled as to why he was being taken around the Mortal World.

Could it be that King Chujiang valued him more?

He must perform well—perhaps he could leave hell earlier!

The Ghost King followed Chu Yan with a menacing air, assuming some significant deed was about to be done in the Mortal World.

But after trailing him for a while, he discovered that Chu Yan had entered a milk tea shop.

"Matcha Milk Green, 50% sweet."

Chu Yan waited at the entrance for a while, thankful that not many people were buying milk tea at that time.

With milk tea in hand on his way home, Chu Yan still felt a bit tense.

He hoped that after drinking the milk tea, Qin Zhao wouldn’t bring up today’s events.

If she asked about recovering her memory again, he really wouldn’t know what to say.

Qin Zhao was doing alchemy at home when she heard noises at the door and came out of the study.

"Chu Yan, you..."

When she saw the formidable ghost trailing behind him, clearly possessing the cultivation level of a Ghost King, her complexion instantly changed, and she rushed to his side.

"What’s wrong?" Chu Yan asked, looking at her confusedly.

"I bought you some milk tea."

"Didn’t you notice something following you?"

"Not at all."

Chu Yan turned around and glanced behind, his gaze not landing on the Ghost King.

The Ghost King even waved his hand in front of Chu Yan’s eyes, trying to say something but failing to speak.

As a result, his expression was somewhat ferocious.

In Qin Zhao’s eyes, this was the Ghost King showing his claws and teeth, ready to attack Chu Yan.

Before the Ghost King could react, Qin Zhao gave him a thorough thrashing.

"..."

The Ghost King turned into a wisp of black energy, helplessly shrinking into a corner and questioning his ghostly existence.

Qin Zhao summoned Black Impermanence.

"What’s going on with the underworld? Another Ghost King! And he’s latched onto my Chu Yan!"

Seeing the familiar and tearful Ghost King, Black Impermanence couldn’t help but feel ashamed.

"Ah, the underworld has indeed had some issues recently with many Ghost Kings escaping. We’re handling it and hope to find the cause soon!"

"Why is he clinging to my Chu Yan? Is he trying to take possession?"

Qin Zhao thought about how he had possessed Chu Yan during the day to beat up Nan Xian, a hint of menace in her eyes.

"He seems unable to speak. Let me check for you!"

Black Impermanence pretended to browse through the underworld iPad.

After a moment, he told Qin Zhao, "This Ghost King was formerly from the Canglan Realm, notorious for his evil deeds. He met his end at the hands of a Heavenly Master named Nan Xian.

Later, Lao Bai captured him and sent him to punishment in hell. As for why he’s fixated on Chu Yan, I don’t know.

The records above don’t mention any connection between him and Chu Yan."

Qin Zhao suddenly realized, "So he’s seeking revenge on his master."

"No wonder I couldn’t control my own body; compared to a Ghost King, I’m still too weak."

Chu Yan let out a sigh and stood behind Qin Zhao.

Ghost King: "..."

Black Impermanence: "..."

Saying this, aren’t you embarrassed?

"This is our negligence in the underworld. I’ll take him back and ensure he won’t escape again."

Black Impermanence guaranteed it and then took the Ghost King away.

Before leaving, Chu Yan whispered in Black Impermanence’s ear, telling him about the escape route in Avici Hell and asked him to take Ghost King along with White Impermanence to check it out.

Black Impermanence’s face lit up with joy; finally, there was a lead on the matter!

Originally, Qin Zhao had been skeptical of Chu Yan’s statement. Her thoughts were similar to Nan Xian’s; they planned to observe Chu Yan and see if he had regained his memory.

But this time, she let go of some of her doubts.

-

Avici Hell.

"Sirs, the Wojiao Stone is right over here."

After Black Impermanence brought back the Ghost King from the Underworld, the spell Chu Yan had cast on him was lifted.

Ghost King, accompanied by Black and White Impermanence, arrived at the escape route.

Just as they neared the location, they coincidentally found a Ghost King attempting to escape.

Black and White Impermanence took action and captured him.

"Wojiao Stones can only be found in King Zhuanlun’s domain. Ghosts from the Underworld can travel to the Five Turbid World through them, so why is there a Wojiao Stone here? Who placed it?"

The two spirits circled the Wojiao Stone several times.

"Avici Hell is under King Pingdeng’s jurisdiction, could this be related to him?"

"If we ask King Pingdeng, he certainly won’t answer, even if he knows he won’t say."

As per the Netherworld Emperor’s orders, their primary duty was to serve under King Chujiang because he was greatly favored by the Netherworld Emperor and held a higher status in the Underworld.

King Pingdeng had a history of conflict with King Chujiang and had always disliked Chu Yan, as well as the two of them.

"Let’s take the Wojiao Stone back first, and have His Highness take a look at it."

The Wojiao Stone was not large, only the size of a fist, and only one ghost could pass through at a time.

Not any ghost could escape; the Wojiao Stone required a certain amount of energy to activate and traverse spaces, which is why only Ghost Kings could get out.

Just as the two ghosts were about to leave, thin strands of red thread suddenly wrapped around their necks.

A powerful Spiritual Power dragged them over.

"Has Your Highness finished your seclusion?"

"Qingdai."

Upon seeing the woman in red, Black and White Impermanence hurriedly bowed and greeted.

"How come you are here?"

"I came looking for Chu Yan. I just happened to see you both, so I followed along."

"..."

This Qingdai was the Immortal Emperor’s little princess.

Previously, there were rumors in the Immortal Realm that the Immortal Emperor wanted to betroth her to Chu Yan.

Chu Yan did not agree and even publicly refused.

He relinquished the title bestowed by the Immortal Emperor, returned the fief, and came to work under the Netherworld Emperor.

Qingdai somehow learned about this and came to the Underworld several times to find him.

Chu Yan refused to meet her each time, and after he went into a long seclusion, Qingdai stopped coming.

"His Highness has indeed ended his seclusion, but he might not meet with you."

Black Impermanence said helplessly.

Since Princess Qingdai had a pleasant personality, he spoke frankly.

"Just tell me secretly where he is; I just want to have a quick glance."

Qingdai squeezed next to Black Impermanence, tugging at his sleeve.

"Big brother Black Impermanence, just tell me, please, I’ll only take one look!"

"Without His Highness’ command, we dare not divulge his whereabouts."

"All right."

Qingdai knew Black and White Impermanence were subordinates and felt it wrong to trouble them too much.

She pulled at her skirt and muttered softly, "I wanted to show him my new dress, too. I heard he likes girls in red."

Upon hearing this, White Impermanence could not help but sigh, "Princess Qingdai, you should return sooner. If you play outside too late, the Immortal Emperor might worry."

"But I haven’t seen him for nearly a hundred years."

Black and White Impermanence knew that Chu Yan had found his love, and they couldn’t bear to tell Qingdai.

The two ghosts had to leave first.

Qingdai stood there, a small frown creasing her brow, torn about whether she should return to the Immortal Realm.

Suddenly, a teasing voice sounded behind her, "I know where King Chujiang is. Little princess, would you like to know?"
