Chapter 554: Hidden Boss


    The figure they referred to as Lord Ghost Emperor was currently wreaking havoc in the Ghost Emperor Pce within the Underworld. Every member of the Ghost n whoid eyes on Wang Chun was summarily dispatched, with none escaping his clutches.


    With Wang Chun''s strength, no one in the Ghost n could withstand him. He had firmly imprinted Commander''s words in his mind: eliminate anyone who sees him, as it was the optimal approach for infiltration.


    "It truly lives up to Commander''s wisdom. This method is incredibly effective. No one has discovered my presence in the Ghost Emperor Pce to this day," Wang Chun praised Su Chen''s strategy.


    Countless bodies of Ghost n powerhousesy strewn around Wang Chun. Among them were even eighth-order Ghost n members!


    After discovering a way to enter the human world, the Ghost n had transported nearly all of their formidable members to the surface, leaving the defenses in the Underworld unprecedentedly vulnerable. They never anticipated that a member of the Ghost n would infiltrate the Underworld and cause trouble.


    The reason this eighth-order Ghost n member remained was primarily to save face for the Ghost Emperor Pce; otherwise, he would have sought glory on the surface long ago.


    "This is where all the valuable information of the Ghost n is stored, just as it was before," Wang Chun remarked as he gazed upon the immense structure before him. He couldn''t help but marvel.


    In his previous attempt to battle the Ghost Emperor, he had also infiltrated the Ghost Emperor Pce and knew theyout inside, especially this building, which served as the source of all Ghost n knowledge.


    If he couldn''t find information about Ghost Patterns here, it was unlikely it could be found anywhere else.With this in mind, Wang Chun strode inside.


    Upon entering, Wang Chun immediately spotted shelves filled with books, all crafted from the unique epidermis of Underworld creatures. Even after tens of thousands of years, they remained unblemished, making them ideal for books.


    Unlike humans, the Ghost n''s technological advancement was painfully slow, focusing primarily on physical attributes over the years. Their technological level was, to this day, at most equivalent to ancient Earth, with no machinery, only manualbor.


    Wang Chun flipped through a few books, which contained biographies of some Ghost n individuals. He scoffed, "These are the figures who can be considered pioneers in Ghost n history? Quiteughable."


    He saw the name of the Ghost Emperor and read about him being an illustrious ruler of all ages, the Emperor who ushered in a new era for the Ghost n. If it weren''t for this generation of Ghost Emperor, they might never have set foot on the surface.


    With this in mind, Wang Chun recalled that it was the Ghost Emperor''s subordinates who had stumbled upon the existence of a teleportation device, giving the Ghost n the ability to return to the surface. Otherwise, the Ghost n might have had to live in the Underworld for countless years.


    "You truly have had a stroke of luck," Wang Chun chuckled lightly.


    Just as Wang Chun was preparing to continue his search for information about Ghost Patterns, a faint voice echoed, "Young Ghost n member, who allowed you to intrude here without permission?"


    Wang Chun was taken aback. He hadn''t sensed the presence of anyone nearby, which was impossible!


    With his Small Gxy First-tier Peak strength, he could detect any movement around him. Unless... the person before him was stronger than he was!


    When did the Ghost n have such terrifying experts?


    Though he thought this, Wang Chun remainedposed on the surface. With Commander as his backup, the current Wang Chun was not the same as before.


    "I am unaware of which esteemed senior from the Ghost n is present. It was unintentional on my part to cause offense," Wang Chun politely replied.


    The next moment, a figure materialized in front of Wang Chun. Surprisingly, Wang Chun still felt nothing. If it weren''t for his eyes confirming it, he might have thought he was facing not a Ghost n member but a ghost!


    This Ghost n member had an elegant demeanor and a slender, almost human-like figure, except for the three horns on his head, which were the only giveaway.


    "Young one, you can call me Wen Lao. I never expected that such a talent like you would emerge among the Ghost n. To possess Small Gxy-level strength at such a young age," Wen Lao said with a benevolent expression as he observed Wang Chun.


    Wang Chun''s eye twitched slightly. He truly hadn''t anticipated encountering such a powerful individual within the Ghost Emperor Pce''s library. So, why hadn''t this formidable Ghost n member intervened during his battle with the Ghost Emperor in the past?


    "It''s all a stroke of luck. Wen Lao is the true powerhouse among the Ghost n. May I ask, Wen Lao, why haven''t you ventured to the world above? Ghost Emperor requires someone like Wen Lao''s assistance," Wang Chun probed intentionally.


    He didn''t believe that Wen Lao had knowledge of the outside world, and he was exploiting this information gap to ask such questions.


    As expected, Wen Lao seemed oblivious to the outside world and subconsciously regarded Wang Chun as one of Ghost Emperor''s trusted subordinates. He replied, "Indeed, Ghost Emperor once invited me to the world above. However, I couldn''t bear to leave these books behind. They are the source of all Ghost n knowledge. Without them, the Ghost n would lose its roots."


    Wen Lao gazed at the books as if they were his descendants.


    Wang Chun felt disdainful. Although Wen Lao was a Small Gxy-level powerhouse, he still had a limited lifespan, at most several thousand years, which might seem like a long time but paled inparison to the existence of a whole race. Even powerful individuals had to face the inevitability of aging.


    When powerful individuals approached the end of their lifespans, they couldn''t escape the natural course of life.


    If he were to go out and engage in continuous battles, his already limited lifespan would rapidly diminish, leading to a quicker demise.


    "How did a junior like you manage to enter this ce? Didn''t this generation of Ghost Emperor inform you that only those with his edict are allowed entry?" Wen Lao looked at Wang Chun with an expressionless face.


    Wang Chun knew that Wen Lao was already suspicious of him but needed him to provide an answer. At this critical moment, Wang Chun didn''t back down.


    "Commander, urgent rescue!"


    Su Chen, who was enjoying a massage from Ju Ling and Tanya, was startled by Wang Chun''s voice.


    "What''s the fuss now?" Su Chen responded impatiently.


    He believed that with Wang Chun''s strength, he could easily handle any situation within the Ghost n, unless he had encountered two Cosmic Behemoths. Could Wang Chun''s luck be that bad?


    "Commander, I''m inside the Ghost Emperor Pce in the Ghost n''s Underworld. There''s an elderly Ghost n member here, and his strength surpasses mine!" Wang Chun spoke at a rapid pace.


    Su Chen''s expression immediately hardened. An elderly Ghost n member whose strength exceeded Wang Chun''s? The Ghost n had such hidden depths?


    Su Chen frowned; a Ghost n member resembling a level beyond Small Gxy was a precarious situation for him.


    Such a boss lurking in the Ghost n''s Underworld surely had ulterior motives. Su Chen couldn''t believe otherwise.


    "Don''t panic. Keep him engaged for now. If ites to it, we''ll deal with him!"


    With Su Chen''s reassurance, Wang Chun regained his confidence. He looked at Wen Lao arrogantly and dered, "I am Ghost Emperor. Here, Ie and go as I please!" (To be continued...)
