Whew——

Due to the presence of many City-Destroying Level Fierce Ghosts here, their undisguised aura collided with each other, causing a chilling wind that made people shiver uncontrollably.

But at this moment, all the Fierce Ghosts were dumbfounded.

They stopped repelling each other and turned to look at the newly arrived human.

"Didn't you hear? You all came to see the Terracotta Warriors, but won't pay Emperor Qin Shi Huang?" Wu Liang frowned, seemingly unable to understand why this group of ghosts didn't respond at all.

The next second, a roar came from behind.

"Roar!"

Somehow, a City-Destroying Level Fierce Ghost appeared, facing Wu Liang's undefended back, its roar that could shatter eardrums and a strange dark red beam appeared simultaneously.

By the time everyone heard it, those seemingly lethal beams had already reached the back of Wu Liang's head, seemingly just about to penetrate it.

"You little rascal, what are you planning to do?"

A sudden and helpless voice sounded.

Following it was another human walking over from a distance, casually tossed a square object toward the Fierce Ghost about to land its attack.

Instantly, the deadly dark red beam halted in mid-air, as if blocked by some invisible force.

The cube unfurled just before touching the City-annihilating Ghost, transforming into a ten-meter-long menacing magic dragon in defiance of the law of conservation of mass.

It tightly wrapped around the City-Destroying Level Fierce Ghost, opened its bloody maw, and shredded it into pieces.

The seemingly sturdy body of the Fierce Ghost became useless under the magic dragon's space-tearing ability, quickly leaving only a fragment of the glass-like Fierce Ghost's true form on the ground.

Wu Liang didn't even bother to turn his head to look at all that happened behind him.

If Director Long couldn't swiftly deal with such ordinary City-Destroying Level Fierce Ghosts, then he could truly return to the Beijing Headquarters and wait to die.

"It's nothing, I just want to see if this group respects Emperor Qin Shi Huang, the old gentleman."

With that, Wu Liang strode forward.

He stopped only when he reached the side of three or four City-Destroying Level Fierce Ghosts, grinning mischievously and said, "Guys, what's the good stuff in there, care to share?"

"..."

All the Fierce Ghosts were puzzled by this situation, but they could sense a strong murderous intent and sense of threat from this guy.

Not a good piece of work!

Almost simultaneously, all the City-Destroying Level Fierce Ghosts took a step back, putting distance between themselves and Wu Liang, seemingly not wanting to dispute with him.

However, this retreating action looked even more eerie in Wu Liang and Minister Long's eyes.

"When did City-Destroying Level Fierce Ghosts coexist peacefully with humans?" Director Long asked in confusion.

Wu Liang got so close, even if they feared his powerful aura and didn't immediately attack, they should at least be eyeing him like prey, looking for openings and ready to strike anytime!

This is the normal behavior of Fierce Ghosts.

But this step back showed they didn't want to clash with Wu Liang at this time.

There could only be one reason—the things inside the Terracotta Warrior Pit are so important to them that they dare not test Wu Liang's strength at this time, lest they get hurt or consume too much energy, and then have their treasures snatched by other ghosts.

"Ha-ha, not saying anything, huh? Then I'll go in with you to find it! Whoever gets it, owns it!"

After speaking, Wu Liang directly sat down on the ground.

He provocatively swept his gaze across all the City-Destroying Level Fierce Ghosts around him, as if saying 'come at me if you dare.'

Counting roughly, there are still eight City-Destroying Level Fierce Ghosts here, and purely in terms of strength, both Wu Liang and Director Long could completely win and exorcise them all.

After all, they are only ordinary City-Destroying Level Fierce Ghosts.

While both Wu Liang and Director Long are basically at the peak of their level.

It's a pity that this place is too close to the area separating the Chang'an citizens, and under normal circumstances, it should be within Chang'an City limits.

Winning the fight is one thing, but whether these creatures would flee when they get cautious is another.

Should any slip-up occur, letting a Fierce Ghost escape to the Chang'an City District, the consequences could be unimaginable.

Therefore, Wu Liang plans to remain here and enter the Terracotta Warrior Pit with this group of ghosts, seeking an opportunity to capture them all.

"Boss... it's so aromatic in here!"

Suddenly, the voice of Puppet Ghost emanated from the Ghost Compendium, and separated by the Consciousness Space, Wu Liang could imagine the drooling scene.

Hmm? Wait a minute? Aromatic?

To Puppet Ghost, the phrase 'so aromatic' means it wants to eat, and from past experiences, it finds anything delicious in its Red Robe form and upon advancing to City-Destroying, it finds only things of the same level appealing.

And now, at City-Destroying Peak, it seems like it hasn't mentioned anything being aromatic for quite a while.

Now, hearing this, doesn't it mean what's inside, even if Puppet Ghost eats it now, would be greatly beneficial?

"Oh? Interesting, an item that can enhance the abilities of even City-Destroying Peak Fierce Ghosts? No wonder this group of guys would rather tolerate me and Dragon's presence, not wanting to leave here."

Wu Liang squinted his eyes in thought, continuing to ask Puppet Ghost through the Ghost Compendium: "Besides the aroma, do you feel anything else?"

After all, he isn't a Fierce Ghost, and can't perceive any unusual circumstances here.

He's not just planning to squat here and find a way to capture all these City-Destroying Ghosts.

He also needs to find the thing inside and study it.

Perhaps this is the key to ascending to the Destruction of the Country level?

Currently, all his Fierce Ghost minions have reached the City-Destroying Level, but Wu Liang still has no clue on how to truly ascend to the Destruction of the Country level.

Previously, when exorcising Triton, the opponent mistakenly thought Wu Liang had the ability to destroy a country, but that was merely because the Ghost Compendium happened to perfectly restrain its soul attack.

Wu Liang himself knew well that even merging two ghosts, he at best exceeds City-Destroying Peak slightly, but utterly incapable of obliterating an entire country with a mere wave of his hand.

Even now, Wu Liang can't conceive just how exaggerated a country-level annihilation approach is.

Upon hearing the boss's question, Puppet Ghost again carefully sensed it, then made a strange noise: "Hmm? Something's not right, it smells delicious… but I don't feel like eating."

"What kind of nonsense are you spouting? Is there something you don't want to eat? You used to eagerly start gnawing on other Fierce Ghosts, and now you're acting coy? Smells delicious, but you don't want to eat?" Wu Liang retorted sarcastically.

But the mischievous Puppet Ghost, used to making quirks, responded seriously: "Really delicious, but I truly don't want to eat, just like when you see an art piece made of play dough and full of spices by the roadside."

"Whether it looks or smells appetizing, you're drooling, but if you seriously consider taking a bite, you'd probably refuse, right?"

"The things inside give me just that feeling—glamorous but empty."
