Gu Xi was unaware that by holding Wudou Minami, he inadvertently fulfilled the eerie forbidden requirement.

At least he wasn’t affected by anything strange. As long as he waited for the train to reach the station, he could get off safely.

This was a good choice for Gu Xi, who didn’t want to cause trouble during the day.

However, even if Gu Xi didn’t want trouble, trouble came to find him.

Holding Wudou Minami in one arm and gripping the handrail with the other, Gu Xi looked up at the altered station sign.

Each station name on the sign had become incredibly eerie, such as Tearing Valley, Bloodwater Passage, Poison Gas Subway Station, and so on, all sorts of names.

It was unclear whether these places were real names or fake ones altered by the strange influence. Anyway, after seeing these names, Gu Xi only felt that this subway wasn’t a good place.

And the trouble arose from these place names.

When Gu Xi looked at these station names, he did so with a bit of curiosity.

Until he saw a stop named Blood Luo Cave, and his eyes suddenly narrowed.

Then a voice sounded in Gu Xi’s ear.

"You know about Blood Luo Cave. Do you know something?"

Gu Xi didn’t even lift his head. He was a bit unsure if taking action now counted as acting under the watchful eyes of the Celestial Dao White-robed Great Guanyin.

If it did, where would the Celestial Dao White-robed Great Guanyin see him from? If it didn’t, then would it be okay for him to act here?

Gu Xi pondered such matters but did not respond to the voice he just heard.

After staying here for a few days, Gu Xi knew very well that this kind of eerie thing would persist as long as you ignored it, but it wouldn’t actively attack you.

Unless you ventured into a place not noticed by the Celestial Dao White-robed Great Guanyin.

After all, they were afraid of the Celestial Dao White-robed Great Guanyin themselves. If the Celestial Dao White-robed Great Guanyin took action against them, it might mean real death.

They could only act in places confirmed to be safe, like the Mysterious Mirror Image Space or the underwater space of the Well Dragon King.

If the subway really was such a place, then why should he be afraid? Just go ahead and fight.

At this moment, Gu Xi gently patted Wudou Minami’s back, signaling her to close her eyes, and then stared at the platform of Blood Luo Cave he just saw.

There were only three stops to Blood Luo Cave.

But at this moment, Gu Xi didn’t pay attention to these things, as he was provoking that strange being.

At the same time, Gu Xi recalled where he had seen Blood Luo Cave before.

The just received Tainted Treasure Map marked the location of Blood Luo Cave.

Gu Xi had merely glanced at it, wondering how such a city could have a place with this kind of name.

Now it seemed that Blood Luo Cave probably needed to be accessed via the subway here.

Should he just go and take a look?

As Gu Xi was staring at the name Blood Luo Cave, that voice spoke again.

"Where did you hear about Blood Luo Cave? Quickly tell me, or I’ll kill you."

Gu Xi didn’t respond even once. Wudou Minami in his arms showed no reaction, indicating that he was the only one who could hear this voice.

Moreover, this guy had no intention of acting, clearly wanting to provoke him into speaking or taking action.

If Gu Xi had just arrived in this world, he might have fallen for this.

Now, Gu Xi wouldn’t fall for such a trick.

The best way to handle this petty clown was to ignore them entirely.

Just like earlier when he thought, "If they have the guts, let them come and hit me."

Gu Xi couldn’t talk now; his only way to provoke was by staring at Blood Luo Cave.

Sure enough, the longer he stared at the station name Blood Luo Cave, the more anxious the hidden strange being became, but it didn’t dare to act.

This cowardly behavior made Gu Xi understand that the subway tracks here were unlike the Mysterious Mirror Image Space and underwater space. This was not an independent eerie space.

The subway’s level was much lower than those two spaces.

This realization gave Gu Xi an idea, and a phantom of a city gate quietly appeared behind him.

Then Amirka walked out from the city gate.

Before he could speak, Gu Xi made a gesture.

Amirka stood still in place.

After Amirka appeared, Gu Xi released Wudou Minami.

Only then did Wudou Minami notice Amirka standing beside Gu Xi.

Wudou Minami was shocked at the sudden appearance of an Undead. Unlike the eerie beings accustomed to seeing all sorts of strange things, she didn’t know how Amirka appeared.

However, Gu Xi had no intention of explaining, only pointing to the station name Blood Luo Cave before taking out the Tainted Treasure Map and handing it to Amirka.

As soon as he took out the Tainted Treasure Map, the voice sounded in Gu Xi’s ear.

"How can this thing be in your hand? I remember I had already thrown it into the toilet, and no one would find it. Why is it with you?"

The voice kept shouting, but Gu Xi ignored it, already understanding the situation.

It seemed that Blood Luo Cave was this guy’s treasure vault.

But so what?

Initially, Gu Xi hadn’t thought of anything. It was the voice that came out to create trouble for him.

Now it’s too late to want Gu Xi to stop.

Gu Xi himself didn’t even need to act; Amirka acting was enough.

Amirka now directly commanded by Gu Xi, had under him a thousand Undead in full force.

In such a force, at night, they could sweep an entire street alone.

Even if the eerie forces were difficult to deal with during the day, self-preservation was absolutely not a problem.

Gu Xi’s requirements were not high, first letting Amirka get off at Blood Luo Cave to look for the treasures in the treasure map since Gu Xi himself was busy and couldn’t handle it.

As for anyone trying to destroy or stop them during the treasure hunt, did they think Amirka’s Corps was a joke?

If someone did try to stop them, it would mean it’s a suitable place for a battle, so fight it out.

Gu Xi was worried about not having enough Undead, so sending them out would just be an opportunity to gather some bodies and summon new Undead.

Under the endless taunts and words of provocation from the strange voice, the subway quickly reached Blood Luo Cave Station.

When the subway doors opened, Gu Xi pointed outside the train, and the Garrison Gate from the Magic Plant District appeared in the subway station.

Then Amirka glanced at Gu Xi and strode out.

As he passed through the gate, Amirka’s corps also emerged from the gate.

Without needing Amirka’s command, the Undead Corps quickly split into two parts. Over three hundred men, led by three Undead Bosses, guarded the Garrison Gate ahead.

The remaining seven hundred men followed Amirka, holding the Tainted Treasure Map and ventured forth.

Gu Xi could even see at the other end of Blood Luo Cave Station, some skinless Deceitful Shadows appearing.

The great battle was about to begin.
