Chapter 113 97. The Immortal Nature Rooted in the Human Corpse
After throwing all the fierce ghosts within the Ghost City into his sleeve, Tan Shuchang sensed that only his own few fierce ghosts remained in the entire city, and he couldn't help but lament the craftiness and spectacle of the "Menyuan" ghost.
Because he had searched the Ghost City and had not found that one.
However, as the core protagonist of this instance, making a final appearance was quite reasonable. After all, in scenarios like rescuing people or major sect competitions, the protagonist typically shows up in the nick of time, just like clocking in for work.
"But what about the Grade-A players? I remember there were three special invites, so why only one?"
Tan Shuchang was somewhat surprised by this.
It wasn't that he was intent on killing the other party because there were evil ghosts inside them, but he couldn't help feeling curious about such special existences.
After all, sustaining life with deathly energy was quite magical no matter how you looked at it.
However, Tan Shuchang waited until his canine-headed adviser arrived, but still could not sense the whereabouts of the other two Grade-A special invite players.
"City Lord, the time has come for Your Excellency to display your divine might and intimidate the petty and inferior," said the ghostly scholar, arriving with a dark robe. Although the robe looked gloomy and seemed filled with ghostly qi, there was an unspeakable domineering intent within its invisibility.
"This is a royal robe, specially approved by Dimei King and sent for Your Excellency," explained the ghostly scholar. After all, this dog-headed adviser was a native of this bizarre game world, naturally knowing many things better than Tan Shuchang.

"Fine then."
Tan Shuchang thought for a moment and didn't reject the suggestion. He was only somewhat regretful because the "Menyuan" ghost had not shown up from beginning to end.
It seems that his taking away all the fierce ghosts within the Ghost City in a short time had somewhat frightened the other party.
Indeed, worthy of someone who dares to collude with the Yin God to snatch his position, this "Menyuan" ghost was truly cunning!
Tan Shuchang came to appreciate the cautiousness of this ghost to some degree.
After all, this was a ghost that could escape from his grasp!
And as he donned the specially approved royal robe, Tan Shuchang's aura instantly changed, with the demon might bolstered by seventy-five years of cultivation bursting forth all at once.
For a time, the entire Ghost City was plunged into abject terror.
Whether it was the few fierce ghosts by Tan Shuchang's side, the players hiding in various parts of the city, or even the two people merely implicated by their involvement with this bizarre game instance outside of the city, all were affected.
Those were the two Grade-A special invite players who had not shown up.

And the reason these two hadn't shown up was simply because they had been fighting all along. One was on their way to assist players in the Ghost City, and the other was trying to stop them.
"It looks like Menyuan has lost," said the stopped Grade-A player, a hint of surprise on their face.
"Do you really think Menyuan has lost, Your Excellency?" The player tasked with stopping them couldn't help but frown slightly upon hearing this. Although they were rebutting, they were certain that the Menyuan ghost had lost.
They had chosen Menyuan and so were very familiar with its aura; moreover, even if Menyuan managed to rise to the position of City Lord and successfully elevated in rank, its aura would not be this overwhelmingly powerful.
"Do you believe that?" said the player called "Your Excellency," sneering.
"Your Excellency, do you really think you're still human?" The player tasked with stopping them was not pleased, so he directly touched upon the sore point.
However, what they thought would provoke the player known as "Your Excellency" left him unmoved, "I have never considered myself a true living person, as I am well aware that I am merely someone revived in another's body. Nevertheless, now that I have successfully resurrected, I must abide by the rules."
"Rules? Hah! Your Excellency, you've aggravated the Living Dead Yin God and Death-speaking Yin God, and this is their final opportunity for you. Next time, it won't be me looking for Your Excellency. You had better watch yourself," said the player responsible for stopping them, before heading towards the Ghost City.
With the failure of the Menyuan ghost, it was time to meet this mysterious Master of the Ghost City.
The player known as "Your Excellency," who was left watching their departure, did not utter a word, as the mention of the Living Dead Yin God and Death-speaking Yin God exerted great pressure on him.
If he had not been resurrected, he would not have feared these two joining forces, as he was of the same level. But a Yin God cannot be resurrected, so to walk the world again, he had destroyed his own status as a Yin God.
"However, before they make a move against me, those two will probably act against the Master of the Ghost City first. They have long been dissatisfied with Dimei King and Jianhei King," he thought, and immediately rushed towards the Ghost City. Yet, just as he arrived at the city gates, he heard a shrill howl followed by the familiar fierce ghost qi vanishing in an instant.
"Is this the strength of the Master of the Ghost City?"
The player known as "Your Excellency" was utterly astonished. The individual who had just stopped his successful resurrection, in both their living state and when revealing their true ghostly nature, was formidable and extremely difficult to deal with.
