A few days later, Lu Xingkong brought news that the Ghost King wanted to meet with Li Zhongnan.
Li Yuxue originally intended to accompany him, but she was blocked by Ghost Clan Cultivators outside the Ghost King's Main Fortress. Concerned for Li Zhongnan's safety, she had come along, but the cultivators blocking her declared that the Ghost King had summoned only Li Zhongnan, and no one else was allowed to enter.
Li Zhongnan frowned slightly. This little girl was certainly worried about him.
But it was merely a meeting with the Ghost King, nothing too threatening. Li Zhongnan said, "Don't worry, the Ghost King, after all, is a ruler of his domain. He shouldn't make things difficult for me."
In truth, he already knew—if the Ghost King wanted to act against him, he would have done so back in the Ice Crystal Cave. This summons might even be an attempt to recruit him, especially since his strength had already been demonstrated.
