Chapter 302 The White Ghost

A woman with white hair and red eyes...

The soldiers were quite wary of this. Although they gave a warning, they didn't say much. If they wanted to know more, they would have to find out for themselves. If it were a secret of a noble family, it would be difficult to find out in a restaurant or teahouse. But since this matter was known throughout the city, it was obviously not a secret. So the group inquired about the nearest teahouse and headed there.

In the short time it took to get to the teahouse, two patrol teams passed by. Perhaps it was because the city center was heavily patrolled and any danger could be detected immediately that the atmosphere wasn't so oppressive.

Upon entering the teahouse, one finds many customers sitting in the main hall, chatting about everything under the sun, with many discussing the white-haired, red-eyed woman.

Ling Yi and his group found a corner to sit down. The people at the tables in front of them were chatting enthusiastically. After listening for a while, they got a clue.

The white-haired, red-eyed woman was brought out of the mountain secret realm by Miss Zhou from Poison King City when she participated in sect training. She did not attract attention at the time. It was not until the young master of the Zhou family had a conflict with the young master of the Xu family and used poison to lose to the other that the white-haired, red-eyed woman came into everyone's view.

In Poison King City, apart from newborns, all the noble families teach their children to use poison from a young age. The young master of the Zhou family and the young master of the Xu family had a conflict and decided to use poison to communicate. In this kind of open contest, the loser could get the antidote by apologizing to the other party. On that day, when the young master of the Xu family was confidently waiting for the young master of the Zhou family to admit his mistake, an accident occurred.

The white-haired woman brought back by Miss Zhou cured Young Master Zhou of the poison and pointed out that Young Master Xu had cheated, and that the poison he used was not something he had prepared himself on the field.

The contest between the two young masters attracted onlookers from other families as well. Upon hearing this, everyone's gaze towards Young Master Xu changed. Young Master Xu and his family were unconvinced and immediately began arguing with the white-haired woman. During the argument, an elder of the Xu family even directly poisoned the white-haired woman. However, the white-haired woman was completely immune to the poison. The Xu family lost face and left in anger. The onlookers thought that the matter was over, including the Zhou family.

However, they did not expect that after the white-haired woman revealed her abilities, other families in Poison King City became greedy for her. Those with a conscience took the initiative to talk to the Zhou family about this matter, offering to exchange her for something in return, but the Zhou family naturally refused.

But those heartless people banded together to suppress the Zhou family. During that period, the younger generation of the Zhou family were all confined to their homes and not allowed to go out, for fear that they would be harmed if they went out.

Even so, the Zhou family did not budge, which made some people curious as to why the Zhou family was so protective of that woman of unknown origin.

As more people became curious, even more rumors spread, one of which was that the Zhou family was so desperate yet still refused to hand the girl over, because they must be able to gain more benefits from her!

When this news spread, the powerful families who wanted the white-haired woman became even more eager, and their methods became more elaborate. The most outrageous thing they did was to find a beggar in the city, turn him into a poisoned human, and then dump him at the Zhou family's residence, hoping the Zhou family would help him. Seeing so many children suffering from the poison, the Zhou family had no choice but to open their gates and let the white-haired woman rescue them. The woman was saved, but the powerful families also took the opportunity to surround the Zhou residence. Under these circumstances, the Zhou family had no choice but to hand her over, and the white-haired woman was taken away.

Miss Zhou and Young Master Zhou were unwilling, but they couldn't withstand the overwhelming numbers of the other side, and could only watch helplessly as the white-haired woman was taken away.

After the other aristocratic families took the woman away, the white-haired woman was no longer oppressed. Since the aristocratic families had not gained any benefit from her, they thought of the young lady from the Zhou family.

It was Miss Zhou who brought them back in the first place. If we use Miss Zhou as leverage, she will definitely hand over what they want!

The woman learned of their plan, and that very night, the City Lord's Mansion, the Deputy City Lord's Mansion, the Xu family, and the Ouyang family were all massacred, leaving no one alive.

After the incident, Poison King City was shocked. Upon receiving the news, the Poison Domain Lord immediately ordered the city's protective barrier to be activated, and personally led a team to capture the white-haired woman.

After the domain lord arrived, he went directly to the Zhou family and arrested all of them, hoping to find out the whereabouts of the white-haired woman from them, but the Zhou family had no idea.

At first, they didn't even know why the White Ghost Girl wanted to slaughter four families.

It was the Domain Lord who told them that the four families had tried to use the Zhou family's daughter to threaten the White Ghost, which led to their massacre by the White Ghost. The Zhou family head asked the Domain Lord, "What wrong did the White Ghost's daughter do?"

What wrong has the Zhou family done?

The Zhou family was not wrong, Bai Gui was not wrong, the wrong was greed. The domain lord naturally knew this, but Bai Gui had slaughtered four families and was not afraid of poison. Such a time bomb, whether killed or gathered, must be captured. But how can we lure the other party to show himself?

Miss Zhou was the best bait. The domain lord had no intention of doing anything to Miss Zhou; he only wanted to use her to lure out the White Ghost. However, he did not expect that Miss Zhou would leave a suicide note and take her own life.

She said she should have died in the mountain secret realm, but the White Ghost saved her. She already owed the White Ghost a debt of gratitude. He brought her out of the secret realm, hoping to let her see the world, but she never expected that she would become someone else's threat to the White Ghost.

She didn't want to become the White Ghost's weakness.

The death of Miss Zhou dealt a heavy blow to the Zhou family, but the Domain Lord did not make things difficult for them and released them.

The White Ghost reappeared half a month after the death of Miss Zhou. Upon learning that Miss Zhou's death was related to the Domain Lord, the White Ghost stormed the City Lord's Mansion. The Domain Lord had brought countless experts with him this time, but even so, they could not stop the White Ghost. Just as the White Ghost was about to kill the Domain Lord, the Zhou family, who had learned of the White Ghost's reappearance, arrived.

The young master of the Zhou family told Bai Gui that his sister hoped her death would end everything and free Bai Gui from the bondage of hatred.

After hearing what the young master of the Zhou family said, Bai Gui let the domain lord go. The domain lord's people and the Zhou family all breathed a sigh of relief, thinking that everything could end there. But then they heard Bai Gui say, "It can't end here."

At first, Young Master Zhou didn't understand what it meant, until the white ghost turned around and he saw black lines on her face. The black lines covered half of the white ghost's face, twisted and terrifying, making her look like a real evil ghost.

The Zhou family and young master Zhou were shocked. The white ghost left at that moment. Afterwards, the Zhou family told the domain lord that the white ghost was not like this before.

After hearing what the Zhou family said, the Domain Lord keenly sensed that something was amiss. Thinking of the White Ghost's formidable strength, the Domain Lord knew that they were no match for him. Just then, the Domain Lord learned that a divine descendant was heading to the Eternal Heaven, so he asked the divine descendant to lend a helping hand.

Someone ahead said, "The divine offspring are now in the city. With their help, that white ghost will definitely not be able to escape if it reappears."

"Alas, things have come to this, it's such a pity for that Zhou family girl..."

Upon hearing this, someone further ahead scoffed, "What's so regrettable about her?"
