Chapter 1037: Chapter 81: There Is No Path to Immortality in This World (43)

At this moment, no matter how much Zhuifeng tried to ignore ‘Big Brother Mo Xiaofei’s’ abnormalities, he couldn’t convince himself…

If Big Brother’s abnormality was because of the trick played by the eccentric old man on Mountain Wudang, then the current ‘Big Brother’s’ abnormality certainly wouldn’t be caused by any trick.

He seemed exceptionally familiar with this place… He knew perfectly well how to navigate the path and avoid the restrictions along the way… Even some strange things he spoke of were clear from his mouth.

Zhuifeng remembered that Mo Xiaofei’s initial goal to go to Mount Tai and look for the Clothed Daoist’s disciple was to explore his past life.

Could it be, the current Big Brother Mo Xiaofei is actually…

But thinking this way, Zhuifeng felt a bit whimsical. Although he was a single wandering… wolf, he had mixed with some monster hangouts.

He remembered during his wandering days, he encountered a dying old monster and chatted for a while. Humans have past lives, and monsters actually have past lives too.

The cycle of Six Paths is in the hands of the netherworld. It’s said the netherworld has a book that can record one’s pre-death affairs. Good and bad, merits and faults, they’re all recorded in the unseen. The netherworld will decide a person’s next life based on the contents of this book.

The netherworld has Six Paths, a monster’s next life could be human, and a human’s next life could be a monster.

But regardless, after reincarnation, one forgets previous life affairs, and recalling one’s past life is extremely difficult…

“What are you thinking?” ‘Mo Xiaofei’ suddenly stopped and cast a questioning look.

This gaze had an indescribable dignified aura, making Zhuifeng reluctant to meet his eyes. He scratched his head and said, “I was just thinking, we’ve been in here for a while, not sure if the people outside have left.”

Zhuifeng remembered that when he followed ‘Mo Xiaofei’ inside, he encountered a silent-mask intruder, and there was another patrolling team in the cave.

“Mm.” ‘Mo Xiaofei’ just nodded, not responding to Zhuifeng’s question.

Zhuifeng quickly walked two more steps, catching up, “Um, Big Brother, when are we going out?”

“Are you in a hurry to leave?”

Zhuifeng replied, “It’s not that… I was just planning to visit some friends for New Year’s greetings.”

Besides, giving New Year greetings and assuring the two elders at home… Zhuifeng thought that given ‘Mo Xiaofei’s’ current state, he probably wouldn’t do this, so he’d have to do it himself with a stiff upper lip.

Unexpectedly, ‘Mo Xiaofei’ said, “No need for that, once we’re out, the New Year will already be over… perhaps, even the New Year’s Day has passed.”

Zhuifeng was stunned, subconsciously saying, “Huh? Big Brother, what did you say? How could New Year’s Day have passed by now? We’ve only been here for a few hours at most, probably not midnight yet.”

‘Mo Xiaofei’ looked at Zhuifeng with a calm gaze, “Have you ever heard, ‘A day in heaven, a year on earth’?”

“Seems like the myth story about Heaven, right?” Zhuifeng subconsciously said, “I once forgot which old monster said it, in heaven, an immortal’s day equals a mortal’s year.”

“Here, more or less.”

Leaving Zhuifeng standing stunned on the spot, “More or less… More or less? Wait! Big Brother, what did you say? Big Brother!”

‘Mo Xiaofei’ walked up the mountain with his hands behind his back. On this mountain, clouds and mist swirled around, and his pace couldn’t be matched by Zhuifeng.

…

…

Rumbling—!

Huge stone pillars fell to the ground like trees being chopped down, raising a vast cloud of dust.

But Wang Hu paused and frowned—behind him was the strange old ghost continually urging him that smooth attacks could clear the way.

This old ghost claimed to have escaped from Xiao Shengmo’s Tower of Myriad Ghosts, because after several hundred years of staying inside the tower, he wasn’t clear about outer affairs.

However… although the old ghost’s attire was somewhat outdated with current trends, it wasn’t exaggerated by several centuries—a testimony to the abundant resources within Tower of Myriad Ghosts, and Lord Xiao being considerate towards his subordinates. Therefore, even those staying inside could enjoy exceptional treatment… such nonsense.

The gloomy and terrifying Lord of the Ghost City would have considerate moments for his subordinates?
