Chapter 479 - 479: Barbarian Ghost’s Call for Help (1)
As the dream jade was activated, a black light expanded in Xiao Shi’s palm, covering the surroundings with a layer of black curtains. The surrounding scenery began to distort and was replaced by darkness.
Xiao Shi appeared out of thin air in the dark world. In front of him were seven dazzling figures of light that were emitting light.
“Howling Tiger is here.” Everyone looked at Xiao Shi.
Howling Tiger was Xiao Shi’s code name in the Four Symbols Divine Martial Sect. As the members of the Four Symbols Divine Martial Sect usually did not interact in reality and kept their identities a secret, they would not reveal their real names when they met in the dream. Instead, they had their own code names.
For example, Qin Mo’s code name in the Four Symbols Divine Martial Sect in the past was Mo Hu. Now that Xiao Shi had joined, he also had his own code name.
Howling Tiger!
“Since everyone is here now, Barbarian Ghost, tell me about your gathering this time.”
The figure of light representing Xiang Zizhen looked at another figure of light. This person’s code name was Barbarian Ghost and he was from the evil ghost lineage of the Four Symbols Divine Martial Sect.
They were the members of the Four Symbols Divine Martial Sect from the Xingluo Province. Three of them were from the Mountain God lineage, two were from the Dream Witch lineage, one was from the Red Tiger lineage, and the other was from the Evil Ghost lineage.
The one who had gathered everyone this time was the Barbarian Ghost of the evil ghost lineage.
Barbarian Ghost nodded. He looked at everyone and said, “Everyone. I’ve encountered a tricky matter recently and need help.”
As soon as he finished speaking, many people frowned. According to the rules, the disciples of the Four Symbols Divine Martial Sect could not meet in private. Now, the Barbarian Ghost was asking them for help. It was undoubtedly a violation of the rules.
“I don’t have any other choice. This matter is extremely important to me. 1 really need your help!” Barbarian Ghost said in an extremely serious tone.
“Tell me what it is first.” One of the figures of light asked.
However, Barbarian Ghost shook his head. “I’m sorry, I can’t tell you the details. This will expose my identity. I can only tell the specifics to those who are willing to help me. What 1 can reveal now is that this matter concerns my next Life Spirit. 1 might need you to come to my city to help me.”
Everyone fell silent. It wasn’t that they didn’t want to help. It was not that they did not trust Barbarian Ghost either. Instead, they were a little helpless.
First of all, they all had their own identities in the Xingluo Province. With Xiang Zizhen’s identity, he usually had to hold down the Prison City. At most, he would go to the demonic factions to capture prisoners. He had no chance to go to other cities.
Secondly, these people had different positions and personas in their respective factions. This was what they relied on to hide their identities. Most people maintained a low profile. If they rashly helped, it was very likely that they would destroy the persona they had built. Especially if the matter with the Barbarian Ghost was troublesome, they would need to expose even more things.
This was very disadvantageous to them. After all, not all the members of the Four Symbols Divine Martial Sect were as good at hiding and disguising their identities as Xiao Shi. They only had this identity in total, so they definitely could not take the risk easily.
The Barbarian Ghost sighed. He also knew that everyone had their own difficulties, so he could only think of a way by himself.
Everyone left the dream world one after another. However, Xiao Shi had just left the dream world when the Dream Jade in his hand shook again. “Hmm?” He looked at the jade in his hand in confusion. He realized that someone was asking him for a “private chat” this time. It was not a “group chat” like before.
He immediately entered the dream world again. He realized that the person who wanted to private chat with him this time was Xiang Zizhen.
In the entire dream world, there were only the two of them.
“What do you think about the matter of Barbarian Ghost?” Xiang Zizhen went straight to the point.
Xiao Shi thought for a moment and shook his head. “I can’t help him.” Although if he really wanted to help, he could do it. He only needed to let his avatar stay in Prison City.
The main body could just rush over to provide support. However, his main body was his foundation. Even in front of Xiang Zizhen, he could not expose his main body. This was not a matter of trust. It was just his way of survival in this world.
“This matter… I want you to help him!” Xiang Zizhen said seriously. “On the one hand, I don’t want to see anything happen to my brother. We don’t have many people to begin with, and in the evil ghost lineage, there’s only Barbarian Ghost. If something happens to him, it will be very disadvantageous to the entire Four Symbols Divine Martial Sect.
“On the other hand, 1 have some selfish motives. I learned from Master that there’s a way to control the demon avatar in our Four Symbols Divine Martial Sect. If 1 can control the demon avatar, I won’t have to worry about my demon avatar anymore.
“However, this method involves the evil ghost lineage. It’s related to the Life Spirit of the evil ghost lineage. Therefore, i want you to understand the Evil Ghost’s Life Spirit from the Barbarian Ghost through this support.
“If you have such a way to control your demon avatar, it will be much easier for you when you reach the Martial Demon Realm in the future.”
Xiang Zizhen’s words successfully aroused Xiao Shi’s interest. Ever since he learned that the A-Iartial Demon Realm needed to split into demon avatars, he had been worried about this. There was nothing that interested him more than the demon avatar.
“What’s different about the Life Spirit of the evil ghost lineage?” Xiao Shi asked in confusion..
