Hearing this, Leng Xuan rushed over immediately and asked: "Where?"
The Demon Emperor pointed to the collapsed building in front of him, "Do you still remember where this is?"
"This is... the ghost king's former palace." Leng Xuan recalled it for a moment and immediately thought about it.
"Yes, look over there." The Demon Emperor pointed his hand to one end of the ruins. Leng Xuan raised his eyes and immediately understood what the Demon Emperor meant.
In the ruins pointed by the Demon Emperor, there was a pile of messy stones with obvious traces of being moved. Leng Xuan walked closer and took a closer look. The traces left in the ruins were still very new, and they should have been there not long ago.
It was left behind, so this can mean that someone must have been here not long ago.
It seemed that their guess was correct. The Ghost King had indeed returned to the Dead City. At that moment, Leng Xuan walked towards the ruins. Along the way, the messy stones were moved to both sides, clearing a path that led directly to the interior of the collapsed palace.
Leng Xuan bent down and entered the palace through a window. He saw that the surroundings were pitch black and filled with an unpleasant smell.
It's the smell of corpses. When the City of Death was destroyed, many of the Ghost King's men had no time to escape and were buried in the ruins. Now after so long, those corpses have rotted and exuded a stench.
After looking around, Leng Xuan found a shallow footprint on the ground. Needless to say, it must be the Ghost King's. Following those footprints, Leng Xuan walked forward step by step. After a while, the remaining footprints on the ground suddenly disappeared.
.
Seeing this, Leng Xuan looked around and suddenly understood. Without much effort, he found a secret passage where the footprints disappeared.
Entering the dark passage, Leng Xuan's spiritual consciousness unfolded, searching for the whereabouts of the Ghost King, hoping to find him. However, in the range covered by his spiritual consciousness, there was no one else but himself and the Demon Emperor. "Has the Ghost King already left?"
While thinking about it, Leng Xuan had already followed the secret passage to the deepest point.
This is a secret room. The area of the secret room is not small, and it can accommodate dozens of people. Although the dead city was destroyed, this secret room located underground has been well preserved and has not been affected.
There are still many things placed in the secret room, including some magic weapons. However, the Ghost King did not take away these things, so Leng Xuan naturally despised them. If he guessed correctly, this should be the Ghost King's treasure room. It's just that
, I don’t know what the Ghost King took with him when he came back this time.
"Leng Xuan, look here." The Demon Emperor's voice came. Leng Xuan turned around and walked to his side. He looked at the corner of the secret room and saw a square mark on the ground, surrounded by dust.
"There should be something placed here, maybe a box, but it's gone now. It must have been taken away by the Ghost King." The Demon Emperor said.
Leng Xuan nodded, confirming the Demon Emperor's guess, and sighed with some pity: "We are a step too late. If we were earlier, we might be able to capture him."
"When the Ghost King is reborn this time, he probably won't be content with peace. He will definitely cause some trouble. It won't be too late to arrest him once we have information about him." The Demon Emperor said lightly, "It's just a Ghost King, and I can't even think about it.
What a big wave."
Although the Ghost King was not found, Leng Xuan did not leave in a hurry, but instead checked in the secret room.
The things in this secret room were collected by the Ghost King throughout his life, and there are many rare things.
