Chapter 280 - Rebirth
"Are you so sure that all this was caused by that young man?" After listening to the old man's story, I couldn't help but ask the old man, "Why is he so sure that everything was done by that young man?" Perhaps … It was only a guess.
After all … Humans were similar, but things were the same. In this world, if a few people with similar appearances appeared, it wouldn't be a difficult matter.
According to what female ghost had just said, the boy he was dating seemed to be a normal person. If there really was something wrong, it was impossible for female ghost to not sense anything at all, so … Now, I suspect that the old fogey might have gotten the wrong person, or maybe … The old man was talking about a different person from what we thought.
"I'm sure it's that young man. It's already been almost 100 years since I've died, and in this 100 years, in order to verify my guess, I've always been by that young man's side. In the end … He's really just like how I imagined him to be. He's not the slightest bit old, and his appearance has not changed at all. " In order to prove the authenticity of what I said, the old geezer's gaze towards me seems a little off. He spoke those words towards me with extreme agitation.
Looking at the old geezer's agitated look, I secretly roll my eyes, but I didn't say anything. What I said was the truth, I was fine, why am I so agitated? My heart is filled with guilt, I clearly didn't do anything, but I kept feeling as though I have let down the old geezer.
"Other than that, have you noticed anything else unusual?" After a moment of silence, Chu Yu asked the old demon.
If just by relying on this matter, he was able to deduce that the young lad was the person female ghost was looking for, then … Chu Yu wanted to confirm something, after all, he was entrusted to do so by the female ghost. As for other matters, they were temporarily outside the scope of his help.
After all … He couldn't just ignore whatever it was that had happened to him. If he did, wouldn't he be too busy to death?
"I'm still not clear about other things. If there really is one, then …" Even after all the people in this city had died, that young man had still not left. However … They would bring a girl back from time to time, and every time that girl got pregnant, she would mysteriously disappear. " After hearing what Chu Yu had asked, the old geezer lowered his head in silence for a long time. Then, he spoke to Chu Yu as if recalling his memories.
After hearing the old ghost's words, Chu Yu and I remained silent at the same time. If the situation developed according to what the old geezer said, then … Everything seems to match, this young lad might really be the one we are looking for, the target of female ghost's revenge.
"Then, do you know what the fates of those pregnant women are like?" After calming myself down for a while, I continued to ask the old ghost. If the old ghost was always following by the side of that young lad, it was impossible for the old ghost to not know anything about these matters.
"I am ashamed of this. I really do not know the final result of those pregnant women, because every time that young man brought those pregnant women out of the city, when he returned, there would be another person by his side." Look at me, the old man said to me.
He really didn't know about this sort of thing. He wanted to see what exactly was going on, but … The most helpless thing was that there was no way for him to leave this city, so … He could only watch helplessly as the pregnant women were led away one by one, and then … it was unknown whether they lived or died.
"Alright, you can leave now." After Chu Yu obtained the answer he wanted to know, he indicated that the old geezer should leave now.
"Then... What about what you promised me? What about my reincarnation? " After hearing that Chu Yu actually wanted him to leave, the old geezer immediately became anxious.
Just now, Chu Yu had already promised himself that as long as he obediently answered all the questions, he would be reincarnated and wouldn't have to be a ghost anymore. As the grand Ghost King, Chu Yu should not go back on his words, right?
Although he thought like this in his heart, but … The old geezer kept muttering in his heart. What if — he was killed? No... That's not right, what if he was killed by the ghost to keep his mouth shut? In any case, if Chu Yu wanted to make a move against him, he didn't even have the slightest ability to resist.
"I will naturally do what I promised you." Seeing the old ghost not believing his words, Chu Yu frowned. However, he still took out a purple petal and handed it over to the old ghost.
After seeing Chu Yu's actions, the old geezer was especially happy as he received the purple petal in Chu Yu's hand and swallowed it in one gulp. Then, he stared at Chu Yu with shining eyes.
However … It was no wonder that the old geezer was so excited. After all, he had been a lonely ghost for hundreds of years. He didn't even have a chance to reincarnate, and now, he was about to be reincarnated.
Then, my right hand drew a circle in the air, and a cluster of flames slowly appeared not far from Chu Yu. Then, the flames slowly spread out, and formed a hexagram in the end.
"Go in. After you enter, you can reincarnate." Glancing at the old ghost, Chu Yu said indifferently.
After hearing Chu Yu's words, the old geezer happily looked at Chu Yu, and then walked towards the Six-Pointed Star. As the Old Devil stepped into the hexagram, I saw that the color of the hexagram had suddenly turned a particularly rich white.
When the old geezer's body had completely entered the space, the especially dense white hexagram started to slowly disappear.
I looked at what was happening in front of me in amazement. This is too mystical. Could it be that — after entering this Six-Pointed Star, I can be reincarnated?
Wouldn't there be any other unexpected situation? Isn't this method of reincarnation too simple? Even I find it hard to believe.
