This Taoist Master is too Frivolous

A ghost with chattering teeth nervously asked, “What do we do now? How do they have weapons too?”

They relied on “technological weapons” to rampage through the dark forest during this time and naturally knew how terrifying these “technological weapons” were!

Those fires under the two big elm trees could annihilate everything below the Ghost King in a single attack!

Even the Ghost King would be left skinless if he managed to survive.

These technological weapons didn’t pose much threat to those above the Ghost King.

However, there were only three beings above the Ghost King in their team.

The ghost Taoist stared at the dark, terrifying gun barrels and muttered blankly, “I’ve only been away from the human realm for four years… How did it become like this?”

He regained his mental stability.

He said, “Everyone, put away your weapons for now, and do not act rashly.”

At that moment, a ghost sniffed vigorously and exclaimed, “My Lord, there are living beings here!”

“Damn it!”

The grim-looking ghost with a bare upper body who was holding a pineapple and had bullets hanging across his body slapped the other ghost and scolded, “We’re in the human realm, isn’t it normal to have them around? What’s the big fuss? Where’s your dignity?”

This ghost was named Wang Kui. He was one of the Twelve Guardian Deities of Blackstone Mountain, a being above the Ghost King, and one of the top commanders of the Ghost Taoist!

As for the ghost on the receiving end of the slap, dressed in red, he remained silent.

He rubbed his head and complained, “I was born in the Underworld Palace and have never seen a living person. Can’t I be a little curious? My Lord…this is the Ghost Market, why can we sense the presence of living beings?”

The ghost Taoist said, “Martial world individuals from the human realm can enter the Ghost Market for transactions… But generally, living people who enter the Ghost Market need to use secret methods to hide their auras; otherwise, they would violate the taboo of the Ghost Market… Why aren’t these people hiding their auras at all?”

As they conversed, they turned to look.

They saw three figures walk out of the void.

These three people, two men and one woman, were martial artists. The strongest of them wasn’t even at the Grandmaster Realm.

They neither hid their auras nor wore masks; they just swaggered into the Ghost Market uninhibitedly.

The underworld soldiers at the entrance of the Ghost Market didn’t stop them either.

Even more…

Ghost Taoist saw one of them share a few jokes with an underworld soldier and then offer the soldier a cigarette directly!

“Could we have taken the wrong path?”

“Is this not the Ghost Market?”

“But I’ve been to the Xi Xia Ghost Market at least ten times… Those two big elm trees surely can’t be mistaken!”

Ghost Taoist was utterly confused.

At this moment, they heard more footsteps.

A young man, about twenty years old, walked out of the void.

The young man wore a tracksuit and looked around like it was his first time entering the Ghost Market.

When he saw the Ghost Taoist and other ghosts, not only did he not feel afraid, but he was overjoyed and approached them with a salute, “Excuse me, ghost sirs, is this the Xi Xia Ghost Market?”

“… …”

For a moment, the ghosts were stunned, and their eyes met, all of them filled with astonishment.

Ghost Taoist frowned and asked, “You’re not afraid of us?”

The young man countered, “Why should I be afraid?”

“In my observation, your aura is only at the fourth stage of the Qi Refining Realm… With this level of strength, I could crush you with just one finger.”

Ghost Taoist slightly released the Yin energy from his body.

With an emotionless expression, his eyes flickered with a dark glow, and he said, “Moreover, this is the Ghost Market. How can you swagger in like this and hope to leave alive?”

“… …”

The young man stared at Ghost Taoist and chuckled, “You must be a foreign ghost, right? Who in the entire Xi Xia Yin-Yang realm doesn’t know about the harmonious relationship between humans and ghosts in our Xi Xia Ghost Market? If any Yin spirits or malevolent beings dare to harm people from the martial world within the Ghost Market, they would be violating the taboo and will be punished by the Northwest Hammer King.”

“Otherwise, how could my master rest assured and let me come to the Xi Xia Ghost Market alone?”

“Northwest Hammer King?”

Ghost Taoist’s eyes flickered and asked, “Is that the Master of the Xi Xia Ghost Market?”

The young man nodded and said, “Indeed, the Northwest Hammer King is the Master of the Xi Xia Ghost Market… Well, several ghost sirs, I’ll head into the Ghost Market first.”

The other ghosts also felt a sinking feeling.

They all looked at the Ghost Taoist.

Ghost Taoist contemplated for a moment and said, “I didn’t expect that the Master of Xi Xia Ghost Market had actually returned… A Ghost Market Master is at least a Ghost Immortal Realm being. If that’s the case, then let’s proceed with Plan B.”

Each of the ghosts agreed.

They only had two goals for coming to the human realm.

Firstly, they were to find the grandson of the Ghost King in the human realm.

Secondly, they aimed to capture the Xi Xia Ghost Market.

If they couldn’t capture it, they would try to join forces with the market and find a place to settle down.

The ghosts put away their weapons and proceeded towards the Ghost Market.

One of the ghosts said, “The name of the Master of Xi Xia Ghost Market is quite special… Northwest Hammer King, Hammer King… Could he be a hammer art expert?”

“Isn’t that obvious?”

Wang Kui glared and said, “If he’s called the Hammer King, he must be a hammer art expert. If not, would he be a sword art expert? But this Northwest Hammer King is interesting, allowing living humans to swagger into his territory.”

“Be quiet!”

Ghost Taoist whispered, “This is someone else’s territory after all. Don’t say more!”

As the ghosts approached the “Ghost Gate” formed by the two big elm trees, an underworld soldier with a submachine gun walked over and stopped them. He asked, “You all seem unfamiliar… Are you foreign ghosts?”

Ghost Taoist remained composed and answered, “Indeed, we’ve traveled from afar.”
