Chapter 127: Ghost Gate Completed
“You…”
Qian Renxue blushed furiously. Although she had already mentally prepared herself, why did the words from Ling Mo’s mouth always feel so strange?
“Alright, see you tonight!”
With extreme mischievousness, Ling Mo left directly.
Leaving Qian Renxue sitting there in a daze.
“Damn rogue…”
Watching Ling Mo’s departing back, Qian Renxue truly didn’t know how to face him.
Love and hate?
It seemed like this contradictory feeling had already been fermenting in her heart.
Ever since their first time together, she hadn’t slept for days and nights. As soon as she closed her eyes, it was Ling Mo’s smile that made her both love and hate it.
She clearly hated Ling Mo very much, but… that feeling seemed wonderful too.
During this time, she had been very entangled, not knowing how to face Ling Mo.
Last time at the Holy Temple gate, as soon as she received Ling Mo’s message, she rushed over directly.
Actually, it was more about wanting to see Ling Mo, but after seeing him, she wished she could kill him with one sword.
“Hmph… Tonight, I’ll make you know that big sister isn’t to be trifled with…”
Her jade hand gently stroked the table, gazing at Ling Mo’s dashing departing back. Qian Renxue suddenly exerted force, directly smashing the table under her hand to pieces.
“Your Highness…”
Hearing the movement inside, more than ten soldiers rushed in, thinking something had happened.
“Your Highness, are you alright?”
The atmosphere was somewhat strange. The soldiers looked at Qian Renxue, whose face was slightly flushed, utterly puzzled.
What exactly were these two big men talking about inside? How could they chat until they were blushing?
Oh! I get it… man on man?
It seemed that some bad rumors were spreading from this tavern.
Could it be that the Crown Prince likes men?
This news spread like wildfire! In just half an hour, it spread through every street and alley.
The more it spread, the more outrageous it got, and the Crown Prince Xue Qinghe’s image plummeted instantly.
Saying he likes men, and not only that, he has unclear relationships with several men at the same time.
All sorts of rumors, spreading more and more outrageously.
From this day on, Qian Renxue couldn’t clear her name even if she jumped into the Yellow River.
She did like men, but the problem was she wasn’t a man!
How to explain?
Tell these people she was a woman?
Suddenly feeling a headache, Qian Renxue could no longer suppress it.
“Get out…”
A cold shout scared away countless soldiers.
But unexpectedly, this cold shout was taken by these soldiers as a thief crying thief, directly confirming it.
The Heaven Dou Empire’s Crown Prince likes men.
Not only did Qian Renxue’s image plummet, even Ling Mo was implicated.
Countless people wanted to see just what kind of man dared to hook up with the Crown Prince.
Ling Mo, who had already left long ago, was unaware of these things. At this time… he had left Heaven Dou City, heading straight for Sunset Forest.
After walking for nearly an hour, Ling Mo could vaguely see a large mountain ahead, with countless palaces standing imposingly.
From the foot of the mountain to the mountaintop, a long staircase road had been built.
At the foot of the mountain, a stone tablet stood prominently, with only two words written on it.
Ghost Gate
The writing style was truly eerie, giving people a chilling feeling, along with the eerie atmosphere around and the architectural style.
It made people feel as if they had entered the underworld, with goosebumps all over!
Walking up the stairs, a closed great gate stood at the mountainside, with a plaque above writing several large characters.
“Yanluo Hall…”
The latter two sides respectively wrote.
Netherworld Ghost Realm, no living mortals allowed!
These short eight large characters gave people a feeling of being on the verge of death, especially matched with that eerie environment and strange atmosphere.
“Hehe, interesting!”
Ling Mo looked satisfied at the series of style designs on the front mountain, better than the ideal state.
Ghost Gate, a place specially for sheltering demons, monsters, and ghosts. Normal people couldn’t step into this gate at all.
“When I have time, I should go to the graves to find some, bring back those Yin Soldiers, ghosts, and such.
Craft a true shadow legion, that would look even more interesting…”
Ling Mo suddenly had a whimsical idea. With the three thousand armored soldiers in hand, he could find ways to bring back those demons and monsters from the Netherworld Realm.
What would that be like?
Ghost Gate Ghost Gate, precisely a place for sheltering demons, monsters, and ghosts.
Unfortunately… there didn’t seem to be such things in the Douluo World. Digging them out and taming them wouldn’t be easy.
Moreover… to find them, he still had to rely on the Three Lives Bronze Coffin; otherwise, Ling Mo couldn’t track their traces at all.
The Three Lives Bronze Coffin would open a mysterious passage for Ling Mo each time it appeared. Only then could he enter those sinister places.
“Forget it! Put these things aside for now, talk about it later when there’s a chance…”
The Three Lives Bronze Coffin wouldn’t appear again in the short term, so Ling Mo had to give up.
Opening the Yanluo Hall great gate, Ling Mo entered directly.
What met the eyes was a huge palace, of course… this was just one palace at the mountainside.
Additionally… on the mountaintop, there was also the main hall, sub-halls, and various other palaces.
Moreover… this was just one mountain; the other mountains were still under construction.
Workers had used iron locks to build a bridge connecting several large mountains. The other mountains had almost no paths up, with rugged terrain that ordinary people couldn’t climb.
Unless one could fly, it was impossible to go up the mountain.
The only possibility was to fight up from Yanluo Hall.
When Dugu Bo chose the location back then, he discovered this point, which was why he selected this excellent spot.
The terrain was easy to defend and hard to attack. As long as the main peak was guarded, the other peaks could rest easy.
“Sect Master!”
While Ling Mo was observing from the gorge, suddenly… a figure came flying from afar, appearing before him in less than a second.
It was Dugu Bo!
“Yo, your spirit looks good lately, radiant and full of vitality, looking more and more handsome. Is this a second spring?”
Ling Mo noticed that Dugu Bo’s hair had turned completely black, and his spirit looked good, appearing younger and younger.
This old man… what good thing happened recently to make him so spirited?
“Hehe, the way you put it, as if I wasn’t handsome before…”
Dugu Bo said proudly. Ever since submitting to Ling Mo, his personality had gradually been influenced by Ling Mo.
“See, you’re delighted. Speak, what is it!”
“It’s like this! Currently, several main halls on the main peak have been built. Except for the other two mountains, everything is basically complete. When do we open the mountain gate and recruit disciples?”
“Mm… I know about this! You can go handle it now. Since this sect master is busy with affairs, I can only rely on Elder Dugu to personally manage these matters…”
Ling Mo suddenly smiled. Was he busy?
How could that be? He lived a life of drunken revelry every day, more comfortable than anyone.
It was just… he didn’t want to deal with these trivial matters. Professional things should be left to professionals.
Dugu Bo was the best person for it.
“Damn, if you want to slack, just say it. You think I don’t know?
Playing multiplayer games every day at the academy with your two little girlfriends, I’ve long seen through everything…”
“Fuck, how did you know?”
Hearing this, how could he take it?
When did this old man go to Shrek Academy? Not only that, he even knew about Ling Mo and Zhu Zhuqing and Ning Rongrong.
“Hehe… A couple days ago, I went to report the construction progress to you and accidentally bumped into it…”
“Fuck me!”
“Forget it, what do you want?”
“Want me to work hard, no problem! But you gotta give me some motivation, right?”
Dugu Bo smiled slyly. He had been coveting the treasures in Ling Mo’s hands for a long time.
“Don’t you already have the hidden weapons on me? Isn’t one Peacock Plume enough?”
“Not enough, I want two…”
“Oh… you want to get one for your granddaughter too, right?”
