Chapter 4487: Unification of the World

“Not afraid? Why not?!” Mi Siyi raised an eyebrow, a faint smile playing on her lips.

“Hehe… Because I'm not afraid, I'm just not.” Xiao Fan grinned.

“Because of what?”

“Because… you won't kill me.” Xiao Fan's eyes burned as he stared into Mi Siyi's eyes.

“Hehe… You're that confident?”

“I am. You've been holding back all along. Did you think I wouldn't notice?” Xiao Fan smiled.

“Fine, you read me right. Tell me, what did you come to see me for?” Mi Siyi shook her head with a wry smile, not expecting to be so thoroughly seen through.

“Hehe… There are some things I want to ask you.”

“Things? What things? Let's hear them… but I'll tell you now, I definitely won't tell you any of the Heavenly Court's secrets.”

“It's not a secret. It's about the Ghost Mansion.”

“About the Ghost Mansion? Haha… You, a Ghost Wood Envoy of the Nether Ghost Mansion, come here to ask me about the Ghost Mansion?!” Hearing this, Mi Siyi burst out laughing.

“Sigh… I have no choice. After all, I have no one else I can trust, only you.” Xiao Fan shook his head helplessly.

His words effectively bridged the distance between them.

“Hehe… Come, sit. If I can answer you, I will.” Mi Siyi smiled, gestured for Xiao Fan to sit in front of her, and poured him a cup of tea.

Xiao Fan picked up the teacup and took a sip. “Good tea!”

“Hehe… Speak, what's on your mind?”

“Hehe… How much do you know about Reincarnation?”

“Reincarnation? How much… do you know?” Mi Siyi was stunned, staring intently at Xiao Fan.

“Is it only by being devoured by strange beasts that one can enter Reincarnation?” Xiao Fan spoke in a low voice.

From Mi Siyi's reaction, Xiao Fan could see that the matter of Reincarnation involved a great deal; otherwise, she wouldn't have reacted this way.

“Hehe… I really didn't expect you to know this.” Mi Siyi gave a bitter smile.

“As I thought… am I right? Is it only after being devoured by the strange beasts in the gray mist that one can enter Reincarnation?!”

“That's right, that's exactly it. This is the Nether Ghost Mansion's method of Reincarnation.” Mi Siyi nodded.

“This… why is it like this?!” Xiao Fan looked stunned.

Reincarnation is a Law of heaven and earth. Why was the Reincarnation managed by the Nether Ghost Mansion different from the Law of heaven and earth?!

“Hehe… Do you know what lies beneath the gray mist?” Mi Siyi didn't rush to answer, but asked a question in return.

“I don't know.” Xiao Fan shook his head.

“Hehe… That is the passage to Reincarnation. The strange beasts have treated the passage as… you understand.” Mi Siyi shook her head helplessly.

“Why is it like that?” Xiao Fan asked.

“Why? Isn't this all the Ghost Lord's doing? If it weren't for him, how could it have come to this?!”

“What did the Ghost Lord do? And what about those strange beasts?!” Xiao Fan spoke in a heavy voice.

“Sigh… This matter involves a lot.” Mi Siyi shook her head helplessly. “Why are the Heavenly Court and the Ghost Mansion opposed? This is the reason!”

Xiao Fan remained silent, listening intently for what came next.

Mi Siyi slowly began to recount a past event from endless ages ago…

Countless eons ago, the Heavenly Court and the Ghost Mansion were originally one. The Heavenly Court governed all living things in heaven and earth, while the Ghost Mansion governed Reincarnation, good and evil, life and death… everything was peaceful.

Until one day, the Nether Ghost Mansion conspired with the Alien Earth Land, planning to usurp the throne and become the sole supreme existence…

Unaware, the Heavenly Court was blindsided by a surprise attack from the experts of the Ghost Mansion and the Alien Earth Land. They suffered heavy losses, with many experts perishing. Even the former overlord of the Heavenly Court had only a sliver of a remnant soul attached to the Cloud Firmament Palace.

The Cloud Firmament Palace is the current base of the Heavenly Court…

Afterward, the Heavenly Court was defeated and retreated, yielding its position as the overlord of heaven and earth. The Ghost Mansion became the new overlord, in league with the Alien Earth Land.

However, from that moment on, the Ghost Mansion suddenly discovered that Reincarnation had failed…

The Reincarnation passage they previously controlled could no longer allow remnant souls to reincarnate.

Without a doubt, this was the Heavenly Court's doing… Because the Heavenly Court retreated, the overall situation changed. But since the Heavenly Court still possessed most of the Luck, they sealed Reincarnation.

In desperation, the Ghost Mansion sought a large number of strange beasts from the Alien Earth Land, letting them devour Divine Souls so that the Divine Souls could awaken once more…

Because of this relationship, the Nether Ghost Mansion became subject to the Alien Earth Land.

There was no other way.

If they didn't obey, and the Alien Earth Land stopped letting the strange beasts help with Reincarnation, what would become of this place?!

The Divine Souls of the strong would endure forever, with endless slaughter and no boundary between life and death. Everyone would exist eternally… Just thinking about it was terrifying, and it would threaten the control of those in power.

So the Nether Ghost Mansion agreed, and after agreeing, they began to launch campaigns everywhere to unify the world.
