The Legendary Son-in-law of the Emperor-Chapter 1666 - 1663: Old Ghost Liu Tree

Netherworld Ancient Land.

It exists in the Ghost Great World, yet does not belong to the Ghost Great World.

Why?

Because the Netherworld Ancient Land existed long before the Ghost Great World was born.

That place is even more mysterious than Forbidden Lands like Ghost Buddha Sky Cave or Ghost Land.

Throughout history, no ghost clan has been able to approach it.

In the River of Time, many ancient ghost clan powerhouses tried to go there, but upon arriving at the so-called Netherworld Ancient Land, they became lost.

Flying and flying, they found themselves on the other side of the Ghost Great World without ever reaching the so-called Netherworld Ancient Land.

Thus, over the long ages, the mystery of the Netherworld Ancient Land has never been unveiled.

And at this moment, Ye Xuan is already outside the Netherworld Ancient Land.

The so-called Netherworld Ancient Land is a valley shrouded in mist.

But this is merely an illusion.

Thinking back to the past, when Ye Xuan arrived at the Netherworld Ancient Land, he spent a great deal of effort to enter it.

As a result, he was directly trapped by the Old Ghost Liu Tree guy for a full hundred thousand years!

It was then that Ye Xuan began to deal with the Old Ghost Liu Tree.

Thinking of these, Ye Xuan couldn’t help but smile slightly.

Having lived for countless ages, he lacks everything but endless memories.

Some memories are quite interesting.

"Alas, I don’t want to talk about it."

Ye Xuan lingered outside the Netherworld Ancient Land, seeming hesitant.

Holding the Old Ghost Willow Twig in his hand.

Ye Xuan whispered, "Old brother, give me a break?"

However, there was no response.

"Alas."

Ye Xuan sighed, his gaze deep, but he still solemnly recited the words:

"Twilight of Heaven and Earth, forged through eternity."

"Bury Heaven, Bury Earth, Old Ghost Liu Tree."

With the word ’tree’ ending, the mist ahead suddenly dispersed.

A Chaos Ancient Ship came swaying along.

As it approached, it seemed like a mountain that covered the sky and blocked the sun!

Ye Xuan leaped into the Chaos Ancient Ship, enveloped entirely by chaotic aura, seeing and hearing nothing.

Six senses blinded.

As if entering the time before the world began, sleeping in endless chaos.

Ye Xuan was already used to such situations.

What he couldn’t stand was that every time he visited the Old Ghost Liu Tree, he had to recite those words before entering the Netherworld Ancient Land.

It’s simply unbearably shameful.

The most annoying part is, it’s not some chant to open the Netherworld Ancient Land, but just a phrase designated by the Old Ghost Liu Tree.

Like a deliberate tease.

Unfortunately, one must bow under the eaves.

No matter what, he still owes the Old Ghost Liu Tree a great favor.

He didn’t know how long had passed when the Chaos Ancient Ship stopped, as if traversing a River of Time, coming to rest on some distant shore.

The chaotic aura surrounding Ye Xuan gradually dispersed, and Ye Xuan regained his six senses.

Ye Xuan moved his body and took a final leap, exiting the Chaos Ancient Ship, seeing the realm not far away.

The surroundings of that realm were shrouded in infinite darkness.

In the center of that realm, there stood a black willow tree that covered the sky and blocked the sun.

On its branches hung artifacts like the Morning Bell, Dusk Drum, and Wind Bell.

As the wind blew, the sound of bells, drums, and wind chimes echoed.

The sounds were incessant.

This realm had no living beings.

Only under the tree sat a gray-robed woman with her head lowered, motionless, as if dead.

Ye Xuan took a step, Shrinking Ground to Inches, arriving under the tree, glancing at the gray-robed woman, and smiled: "It really is your person."

Earlier, when this Female Ghost God showed up looking for him, he guessed she was associated with the Old Ghost Liu Tree, and it seemed now she indeed was.

Ye Xuan’s voice sounded but did not disturb the Female Ghost God.

She was already seated there, head lowered and motionless, resembling death.

Ye Xuan could see she was in a state of slumber.

This Female Ghost God was originally a figure from a remote past, surviving till now through sleep, with assistance from the Old Ghost Liu Tree, evading the erosion of lifespan.

Otherwise, she would have long turned into a heap of yellow earth.

Such beings generally do not open their eyes, spending most time in sleep.

Only in this way could they survive.

Once they appear for too long, the erosion of lifespan worsens.

After all, they are not people of this era.

"You went to the Emperor Pass Great Wall."

The Old Ghost Liu Tree’s low, hoarse voice slowly sounded, magnetic yet somewhat ethereal.

As if not even present in this place.

Ye Xuan sat under the Old Ghost Liu Tree, resting his elbows on his thighs, supporting his chin with his hand, and said calmly: "I went, and saw the Dark Demon Sea."

The Old Ghost Liu Tree said slowly: "Any thoughts?"

Ye Xuan glanced at the Old Ghost Liu Tree’s thick trunk and replied indifferently: "No thoughts."

The Old Ghost Liu Tree said: "You didn’t bring the Nine Netherworld Phoenix this time, so I suppose you want to talk about something."

Ye Xuan tilted his head and said, "I’m hesitating whether to tell you."

The Old Ghost Liu Tree did not respond.

The sound of bells, drums, and wind chimes persisted.

As if playing a beautiful immortal melody.

The two fell into silence.

After a long time, Ye Xuan spoke: "That Exotic Realm is called Dou Tian Divine Domain?"

The Old Ghost Liu Tree softly replied "Yes."

"So, the King of Dou Tian is the strongest in Dou Tian Divine Domain?"

Ye Xuan stared at the Old Ghost Liu Tree, asking the question in his heart.

The Old Ghost Liu Tree was silent for a moment before speaking slowly: "Dou Tian is a race."

"The full name is Dou Tian Divine Race."

Ye Xuan frowned: "What do you mean?"

The Old Ghost Liu Tree calmly said: "It means... the King of Dou Tian is not a unique being."

"What?"

Ye Xuan’s pupils suddenly shrunk.

The King of Dou Tian is not a single person?!

But rather a group of people!?

What is going on?

Ye Xuan’s mood experienced a massive upheaval.

As he came, he guessed the Old Ghost Liu Tree surely knew these things and would tell him.

But this answer completely exceeded Ye Xuan’s expectations.

"Are you scared?"

The Old Ghost Liu Tree’s tone carried a hint of mockery.

"Afraid?"

Ye Xuan regathered his composure, a trace of heat in his eyes, and grinned: "Do you think there’s anyone in this world worthy of making the Undying Night Emperor fear?"

"Emperor Burial Lord."

The Old Ghost Liu Tree said leisurely.

Ye Xuan’s smile froze instantly, then he snorted coldly: "That was in the past."

The Old Ghost Liu Tree did not continue to point out Ye Xuan’s weakness, saying calmly: "There’s still plenty of time before that battle, no rush."

Ye Xuan nodded slightly.

The man and the tree fell into silence again.

After a long while.

Ye Xuan spoke again: "My wife went to the Heavenly Sea."

While speaking, Ye Xuan watched the Old Ghost Liu Tree closely.

Seeing the Old Ghost Liu Tree did not react, Ye Xuan squinted his eyes: "The old guy at the Empty Ancient City Old Immortal Shop is acting on my wife’s orders."

After a moment, the Old Ghost Liu Tree said: "I know."

Ye Xuan closely watched the Old Ghost Liu Tree: "So, who is my wife?"

The Old Ghost Liu Tree said leisurely: "Why ask me, an outsider, who your wife is?"

Ye Xuan spoke with a strange expression: "Aren’t you afraid I’ll have some sort of terrible occurrence with her?"

"Like... having a son."
