School Beauty's Personal Crazy Young Master

Chapter 1546: Chapter 1632: The Ghost Lord Takes Action

Rob everything...

The little Heavenly Demon thought Chen Nan was right, but couldn’t help but retort, ”You’re truly shameless.”

”What do you know? This is the basic quality of a robber.”

Chen Nan didn’t feel the slightest embarrassment.

They ransacked the nine major cities, including Wentian City. Of course, he didn’t forget to loot all the treasures from the City Lord’s mansion.

Most of these mansions, like Wentian City, had a treasury with many formations and the City Lord’s Divine Thought imprint. Now, most of the ten City Lords are dead, and the remaining three have long since fled to places unknown.

Since Chen Nan’s strength had greatly improved, entering these treasuries was not a problem for him at all.

Fortunately, he had plenty of Storage Rings obtained from slain cultivators, packed to the brim with loot. Among them, many Spiritual Medicines were directly swallowed by the little Heavenly Demon.

Wherever Chen Nan and the little Heavenly Demon went, the shopkeepers looked as if they had lost their parents, but none dared to resist.

Overall, Chen Nan brought them more benefits than harm.

After all, with the Abyss Prison Master dead, the Heart of the Sky Demon within the Abyss Prison was finally available to ordinary cultivators like them, making it not so unreachable anymore.

With the help of the little Heavenly Demon, Chen Nan exited the Abyss Prison.

The man and demon reappeared, landing in the Endless Abyss in front of the Ghost Venerable Palace.

Chen Nan, in mid-air, grasped the little Heavenly Demon’s tail, his face continually changing shape as the Gang Wind from the abyss below buffeted him. After about an hour, they finally flew above the abyss.

The Ghost Venerable did not appear. Chen Nan, taking the little Heavenly Demon, entered the Ghost Venerable’s palace, but saw no sign of the Ghost Venerable.

The palace soared into the clouds. Chen Nan ascended to the Third Layer he had visited before, but couldn’t find a way up.

The little Heavenly Demon, initially uninterested, eventually sprawled on the ground and began snoring deafeningly. Chen Nan frowned and called out a few times, but got no response.

He released his Divine Sense, but it couldn’t penetrate the palace above.

”Could the Ghost Venerable be deliberately tricking me, sending me to the Abyss Prison to find the prison master’s skeleton, only to go into seclusion himself? At his level, who knows how long he’ll be in seclusion. I spent some time in the Dragon Emperor’s Tomb, and the Abyss Prison only allows for ten days. If the Demon Summoning Formation is activated, the Human World might turn into Purgatory.”

Chen Nan frowned, pondering this issue, while nearby, the little Heavenly Demon, having devoured countless Spiritual Medicines, unrestrainedly snored the day away. Chen Nan had no one to discuss a plan with.

Just as he was unsure of what to do next, he sensed a Divine Thought piercing through the Void, directed towards him.

A woman’s cold voice said, ”Chen Nan, the matters of the Mortal World have already been intervened in by the Ghost Venerable. His retreat this time is to handle these issues, so you needn’t worry too much.”

”Are you Qingqing’s godmother, the Jiuyin Witch?”

Chen Nan frowned, instantly thinking of someone. In this place, only a top-tier presence in the Magic Realm could communicate with him like this.

And the Jiuyin Witch was one of them.

Chen Nan had previously let the Pu Li Strange Beast accompany Su Qingqing to find the Jiuyin Witch, after which he entered the Abyss Prison.

”You’re very clever; no wonder Qingqing likes you. But I must say, you are quite the philanderer.” The Jiuyin Witch’s voice was emotionless.

However, the next piece of news she delivered almost made Chen Nan spit blood.

”Qingqing went into seclusion as a bargaining chip for your safety. As for when she’ll be allowed out, that depends on my mood and her advancement progress.”

The Jiuyin Witch suddenly dropped a bombshell.

Chen Nan was dumbstruck: ”What did you say? I didn’t encounter any danger in the Abyss Prison, and besides, you didn’t help me there at all. How could you use that as a bargaining chip with her!”

”I never said you were in definite danger, just hinted at the risks within the Abyss Prison to Qingqing. So, you won’t see her for a while.”

The Jiuyin Witch laughed coldly, as if pleased at having schemed against Chen Nan.

”You old witch...”

Chen Nan nearly cursed her, but held back.

Damn it, she’s a Supreme after all!

Against such a peerless expert, even if he joined forces with the little Heavenly Demon, they’d end up battered and bleeding.

But this isn’t so bad. Though the Jiuyin Witch doesn’t favor him, at least she won’t harm Su Qingqing, who is her goddaughter.

The great catastrophe of the Mortal World is imminent. The Heavenly People Clan surely won’t just target the Mortal World; the Four Extremes World falls within this range.

In the current situation, it’s a good choice for Su Qingqing to go into seclusion to enhance her strength.

This way, not only is her safety ensured, but she’ll also have more power to face the Heavenly People Clan in the future.

”I know you want to curse me. Go ahead; meanwhile, you should stay quietly at the Ghost Venerable’s place. His nine-level palace retreat is aimed at researching an array to counter the Demon Summoning Formation affecting the Mortal World. It won’t be long until the skeleton you brought from the Abyss Prison will come in handy. After you went to the Abyss Prison, the Ghost Venerable went to the Mortal World to implement some measures to temporarily suppress the Demon Summoning Formation before coming back to refine a counter array.”

Having said this, the Jiuyin Witch fell silent.

Chen Nan called out, but no one answered.

He looked at the Ghost Venerable’s palace, then listened to the snoring of the little Heavenly Demon, and suddenly found everything rather endearing.

Su Qingqing going into seclusion was quite regrettable, but the purpose of coming to the Magic Realm was achieved. The Ghost Venerable surprisingly intervened early to offer help, a truly quirky character that left Chen Nan astonished.

Feeling buoyant, Chen Nan began to inspect the spoils he brought back from the Abyss Prison.

After a while, Chen Nan realized he had brought back quite a lot. It would take more than just a day or two to go through everything.

The Ghost Venerable’s retreat should be to prepare against the Demon Summoning Formation and the Heavenly People Clan, but who knows how long he’ll remain in seclusion.

Chen Nan feared boredom the most.

With Su Qingqing called into retreat by the Jiuyin Witch, the other ladies were all still in the Magic Realm—Tiantian, the Seductive Concubine, Xiaomi, Xinya, Yu Ting, along with Chu Wenrou and Cheng Bingbing. Chen Nan had wanted to find them last time.

Now that there’s time, he took out the Storage Ring, retrieving the prison master’s skeleton, and handed it to the little Heavenly Demon, instructing him to wait here for the Ghost Venerable to come out and hand over the skeleton.

After giving instructions, Chen Nan left a strand of Divine Thought on a Jade Scroll for the Ghost Venerable and then flew out of the Ghost Venerable’s palace.

Passing by Ghost King Mountain this time, all the ghost kings there had retreated into the mountain’s belly, not daring to show themselves. They must have been thoroughly bullied by him last time, still in lingering fear.

Chen Nan chuckled, not intending to give them any trouble.

Commanding the Dual World, he speedily flew for several hours and reached the Illusion Destruction Sect. Last time, Purple Rhythm Heavenly Monarch accompanied him to find the Ghost Venerable, but after he awoke, Purple Rhythm Heavenly Monarch had vanished without a trace.

The Illusion Destruction Sect was immensely powerful within the entire Magic Realm. Chen Nan came this time to thank Purple Rhythm Heavenly Monarch and Ancestor Zi Jie, and also wanted their help in locating his several wives.

After all, it’s been eighteen years; claiming not to miss them would be a lie.

Following the positioning token left by Ancestor Zi Jie, he didn’t spend much Cultivation Technique before finding the Illusion Destruction Sect.
