Chapter 860

Mo Jiuli couldn’t help but marvel at the black-clad man whose face remained unseen; his appetite was truly astonishing. With such a voracious hunger, Mo Jiuli was sure this person was absolutely not from the Human Clan. Must be from the Beast Clan instead…

“Master, you’re mistaken. He is indeed from the Human Clan, but he’s already dead!” Little book’s voice echoed in Mo Jiuli’s mind.

“Dead?” Mo Jiuli asked in surprise.

“Exactly, Master. If I’m not mistaken, he should belong to the Ghost Clan!” Little book replied.

“Ghost Clan? That’s impossible! I can clearly sense the vitality in his body. Although his aura is chaotic, making it hard to determine whether he is from the Human Clan or Beast Clan, he is definitely not from the Ghost Clan!” Mo Jiuli declared with firm conviction.

“He likely possesses a human body, but make no mistake, he is from the Ghost Clan. If you don’t believe me, Master, you can test him yourself! The Ghost Clan’s greatest weaknesses are dark energy infused with light attributes and fire…” Little book explained.

Upon hearing this, Mo Jiuli focused on the black-clad man across from her. A small cluster flame gently flew from her hand and landed directly on the table before him. The suddenness of the act caught him off guard, as he clearly hadn’t anticipated anyone entering their territory. Panicked, he dodged aside and, in an icy voice, glanced warily around before demanding, “Who’s there? Show yourself!”

Mo Jiuli did not disappoint him. As his words fell, she commanded Qiuqiu to dispel her invisibility, revealing herself in front of him.

“You? How did you get in here?” The black-clad man was shocked to see Mo Jiuli and Little Lingling; wasn’t this the same woman who had vanished before their very eyes earlier? How had she appeared here?

How did she enter? And why didn’t the Barrier alert anyone to her arrival? The black-clad man was utterly baffled, but his wariness of Mo Jiuli deepened. Her ability to bypass the Barrier of the Dark Abyss was a clear sign that this woman was far from ordinary…

Could she be a deity from the Divine World? At this thought, the black-clad man’s aura grew even colder. Mo Jiuli could sense the shift in his emotions. Judging by his expression, he seemed to now view her as some sort of enemy…

“I merely seek to enter the Dark Abyss for training. I don’t intend to become your enemy. Let me pass, and I won’t trouble you further!” Mo Jiuli stated directly.

“Training? Do you think you can fool me? You so-called gods are always plotting to destroy the Dark Abyss, aren’t you? Who do you think you are? Even if I, Night, have to die, I will never let you destroy the Dark Abyss! The Divine World will pay for what it did to our King!” the black-clad man roared in fury.

“Night? Your King? Are you referring to the Ghost King?” Mo Jiuli tentatively asked.

“Hahaha… So you truly are from the Divine World. You think I don’t know that the Ghost King was bought off by you long ago? Don’t imagine that your schemes will succeed. That traitor will meet his end, and his soul will be scattered to the winds!” Night laughed coldly.

Hearing this, Mo Jiuli became even more confused. However, one thing was clear—Night was the guardian of the Dark Abyss, responsible for preventing anyone from entering…

As for his King not being the Ghost King, yet he himself belonging to the Ghost Clan—if it wasn’t the Ghost King, could it be the Netherworld King? That made sense, as the Ghost World was under the jurisdiction of the Netherworld…

“Are you a subordinate of the Netherworld King?” Mo Jiuli asked with a raised brow.

“You are unworthy to speak of my King! Even if your Divine World scum manipulated the Ghost King into dominating the entire Netherworld and making himself the Netherworld King, in our hearts, he will never truly be the King…”
