"Let's find the Immortal Venerable to save them. I don't believe they can't save them."
Xia Yubing said quickly, frowning.
Yes, if the Immortal Venerable couldn't save them, then no one in this world could.
"Alright, stop thinking about letting the Immortal Venerable clean up your messes for everything. The Immortal Venerable is the leader of the main plane, not a nanny for a bunch of kids.
When you went missing this time, it was the Immortal Venerable who personally ordered us to find you, consuming so much manpower and resources, and it led to Xi Sha's current state."
The Sun God glared at the Thunderstorm Squad members and continued,
"In this world, besides the Immortal Venerable, there is only one other person who can save them."
"Who?"
"They are suffering from mental and illusionary damage, so we can only ask the person most skilled in illusions in the main plane to save them. No one else can."
"I know, Sun God, you're talking about the Illusion Sage Li Mengran,"
Wan Qianxin exclaimed.
"Yes, go find her. Only she can help. I still need to stay here to gather the army and clean up the mess you left behind."
"Thank you, Sun God."
After thanking the Sun God, everyone immediately rushed into the distance.
The closest base to here was Base 16, but it was still half a universe away. If they flew there, it would take forever.
In the end, Ao Lie and Qi Manyao, who were originally part of the Base 16 legion, came forward, borrowed a spaceship from the local army, and took them back to Base 16.
Upon arriving at Base 16, Ling Xin bid them farewell and returned to Base 18 with his people. Ao Lie and Qi Manyao, along with the Thunderstorm Squad, piloted the spaceship and jumped directly to the sky above Ghost Emperor Island in the Ghost Realm through the base's space jump point.
The Illusion Sage resided there.
Regarding the Illusion Sage, some said she was the most noble woman in the entire Immortal Realm, while others said she was the most famous person in the Immortal Realm.
Indeed, she had many identities.
Granddaughter of the first Saint Heavenly Venerable of the Immortal Realm,
Youngest princess of the Great Tang Empire's Emperor, the Human Emperor,
Empress of the Ghost Realm's ruler, Ghost Emperor Wang Xiaohang,
Hall Master of the Illusory Hall, a branch of the Supreme Five Elements Hall,
Founding Elder of the Sacred Hall of the Supreme Five Elements Hall,
The only one in the endless main plane to achieve sainthood through the Illusory Dao,
The foremost among the Four Great Beauties of the Five Elements Hall.
Li Mengran.
She was a little princess who had accumulated countless honors and favors.
Any one of these titles was enough to make her walk unhindered in the Immortal Realm and Ghost Realm.
Everyone had heard of this one of the Four Great Beauties whom they had never met before, as no one except the Four Little Ones had seen her.
Moreover, the Four Little Ones had only seen her when they were young. In recent years, Li Mengran had not returned to the Immortal Realm, and they had not visited the Ghost Realm, so they naturally hadn't seen her.
Upon reaching the sky above Ghost Emperor Island, everyone disembarked from the spaceship and headed straight for the Ghost Emperor Palace.
The guards of the Ghost Emperor Palace naturally would not let just anyone in.
"We are disciples of the Five Elements Hall, seeking an audience with His Majesty the Ghost Emperor and Hall Master Illusion Sage."
Fang Xiaoyu said quickly.
"Disciples of the Five Elements Hall? Go straight in."
After looking at the identification documents shown by everyone, the guard immediately let them pass without hesitation.
Everyone was bewildered. They were let in without any questions or checks? Did disciples of the Five Elements Hall have such privileges in the Ghost Emperor Palace?
Did the ruler of the Ghost Realm also fall for this?
Seeing everyone's confused expressions, the guard smiled and said,
"What's so strange about that? As disciples of the Five Elements Hall, do you dare to be presumptuous in front of the Hall Master of the Law Enforcement Hall? Which disciple of the Five Elements Hall isn't afraid of the Law Enforcement Hall, let alone the Hall Master?"
"Hall Master of the Law Enforcement Hall?"
Everyone exclaimed.
"Yes, His Majesty the Ghost Emperor is the Hall Master of the Law Enforcement Hall. Don't you know? All the older disciples know this."
Not only the newcomers like Fang Xiaoyu, but even the Four Little Ones were unaware of this.
In their impression, Uncle Ghost Emperor Wang Xiaohang was just a jolly little man who always smiled, with no airs about him. How could he be the Hall Master of the Law Enforcement Hall, whom many disciples of the Five Elements Hall feared?
However, everyone was in a hurry and had no time to ask. They headed straight into the Ghost Emperor Palace.
The Ghost Emperor Palace was vast, but not as vast as the Five Elements Hall, as only the Ghost Emperor and his wife, along with some high-ranking officials managing the Ghost Realm, resided here.
When everyone flew to the plaza in front of the Ghost Emperor Hall, Xia Yubing started shouting,
"Uncle Ghost Emperor, we need to see you about something."
"Come in."
The Ghost Emperor was currently inside the Ghost Emperor Palace.
Hearing this, Xia Yubing and Bao Bao carried Xi Sha, Dada carried Wan Lei, and everyone entered the Ghost Emperor Hall.
Inside the hall, several high-ranking officials of the Ghost Realm stood with bowed heads. On the imperial seat in the center sat a young man.
This person was not tall, not even as tall as Xia Dayu. He had a baby face, with a black crying-and-laughing ghost face imprint between his eyebrows. Despite his kind appearance, he possessed considerable authority. His gaze was gentle but hid a fierce ruthlessness, clearly indicating he was a smiling tiger – someone who smiled on the surface but would kill your entire family in secret.
"Uncle Ghost Emperor."
"Uncle Ghost Emperor."
The Four Little Ones called out in unison.
"Oh, it's you kids. You've all grown so much,"
Ghost Emperor Wang Xiaohang smiled, stood up, and walked down the steps, asking,
"You don't visit the three treasures without a reason. What brings you to me?"
"We're not looking for you, we're here to see Aunt Illusion Sage and ask her to save people."
"Oh, you're not looking for me? Then please leave,"
The Ghost Emperor waved his hand with a smile.
What was this? A group of people ran to his home and didn't look for him, but for his wife?
"Wan Lei and Aunt Xi Sha are seriously injured, their mental power is eroded, and they need Aunt Mengran to save them,"
Han Xiaoyun said with a frown.
"Wan Lei?"
Wang Xiaohang looked at the person Dada was carrying, then at Fang Xiaoyu, and then chuckled,
"I see why you all look so familiar. It's Fang Xiaoyu and Wan Lei."
Fang Xiaoyu quickly cupped his hands and said,
"Junior pays his respects to His Majesty the Ghost Emperor. Junior has not yet had the chance to thank Your Majesty for the great kindness in the Ghost Immortal Secret Realm back then."
"Hey, it's a small matter. I told you back then that if you had the chance to come to the Ghost Realm, you could look for me. I didn't expect you to come under these circumstances.
Don't worry, put them down first. I've already called Meng Meng, and she'll be here soon."
Li Mengran's nickname was Meng Meng, not Ran Ran.
This was because the last character of the names of the children of the Human Emperor was Ran.
Li Mengran's eldest brother, who was currently the Emperor of Tang, was named Li Xiaoran. His second brother was Li Yaoran, and his eldest sister was Li Lingran.
This was the Grand Princess who had tried to abduct Xia Dayu to be her male consort.
"Thank you, Your Majesty."
The crowd spread blankets on the ground and placed the two on the ground.
"Hehe, let me see who's here to play with me."
A voice came from the back door of the Ghost Emperor Palace. Fang Xiaoyu looked up and gasped, exclaiming,
"Meng Meng?!"
