Chapter 852 The Call from Qingrou
Gao Ge does have a lot of good stuff.
Putting aside what he got before, even the things that he has plundered from the Ghost Sect are enough to support a sect.
A treasury is also set up in the Star Sect, in which there are the good things moved from the Ghost Sect by Gao Ge. These things are not of much use for Gao Ge while those of great use are still placed in the star map.
Even so, quite some people are tempted.
“Sovereign, what are you going to send to those who attend our opening ceremony?” The bearded man asks curiously.
Wen Yihuan, Master Guanshan and the others are not curious.
They know Gao Ge well. They are also aware that if there is any good thing, Gao Ge won’t give it to others randomly.
“This is a secret,” Gao Ge says with a serious look, “Don’t inquire about the sovereign.”
The bearded man is speechless.
“You will know by then. Rest assured. They must be very happy,” Gao Ge says smilingly.
Upon hearing Gao Ge’s words, Master Guanshan and the others all look dubious.
If this saying were uttered by another man, they might believe it; however, now that such a saying is uttered by Gao Ge, it is not trustable.
“Sovereign, can I have the Hell Grass?” Wen Yihuan suddenly asks.
The Hell Grass mentioned by Wen Yihuan is acquired from the Ghost Sect by Gao Ge. Yet, as to its function, Gao Ge has no idea.
However, since Wen Yihuan asks for it, Gao Ge won’t decline his request.
Seeing that Gao Ge agrees with a nod, Wen Yihuan wears a smile of delight.
“Tell me what you are going to do with it,” Gao Ge says.
“It cannot be a bad thing,” Wen Yihuan explains, “If ordinary people obtain the Hell Grass, it won’t be of use then. However, if I can have it, it will be of great use. Hell Grass is of no use for the cultivator but very conducive to the ghost. It can accelerate the condensation of the ghost. If the condensed ghost eats the Hell Grass, its capability can be elevated.”

“You’ve raised a ghost slave?”
Wen Yihuan hastens to shake his head.
“Sovereign, if you say so, I will feel so hurt. Don’t you know who I am? How can I do that? If I really did, I would be no different from the members of the Ghost Sect,” Wen Yihuan says with a serious look.
Gao Ge grins.
Actually, he doesn’t think that raising the ghost slave is a serious thing.
After all, a ghost slave is a double-edged sword.
If one can make a deal with the ghost slave and let the ghost slave work for him without both parties suffering loss, it won’t be a big deal. However, if one tortures the ghost slave and also makes it do something against reason and nature, it won’t be bearable. Such a man is of course detestable.
“I haven’t finished talking yet. The Hell Grass is greatly tempting for the ghosts. Likewise, if one has the Hell Grass, it can help search for some ghosts,” Wen Yihuan continues saying.
Gao Ge nods and waves his head.
“Enough. Just take it. No need to tell me about it.”
Just like what Wen Yihuan said, Gao Ge knows who he is very well.
Therefore, Gao Ge is not worried that Wen Yihuan may conduct any misdeed.
At the moment, Gao Ge’s phone suddenly rings.
He takes out the phone to cast a glance and feels somewhat confused.
The call is from Qingrou.
This time, Qingrou follows Yue Xincheng to the Western Border Region.
If this call were from Yue Xincheng, Gao Ge would be rather happy. On the contrary, he suddenly feels a sense of foreboding now.
Hence, he waves a hand and all the people around quickly quiet down.
“Hello, Qingrou, what’s wrong?”
Wen Yihuan and the others are not clear what Qingrou says over the phone but they can see that Gao Ge’s facial expression is gradually becoming stern.
“Okay. I’ll go over there.”
After hanging up the phone, Gao Ge immediately rises, her eyes glistening with coldness.
“What’s wrong?” Xia Lu subconsciously grabs Gao Ge’s arm, her eyes full of concern.
“Yue Xincheng is in trouble.”
“In the Western Border Region?”
“Yes.”
“I will go with you,” Xia Lu says without thinking.
Gao Ge shakes his head, “Forget it. I will go on my own. I can deal with it and come back as soon as possible.”
Xia Lu puckers her lips.
Right at the moment, Xia Shengtang’s voice suddenly comes.
“I’ll go with you. I’m familiar with the Western Border Region,” Xia Shengtang says.
Gao Ge looks at him in surprise.
“Don’t look at me. I’m not doing this for you. I just think you are a playboy. What if you go to the Western Border Region and mess with another girl? By then, my sister will suffer wrong,” Xia Shengtang says with a serious look.
Gao Ge laughs and nods, “Thank you.”
Xia Shengtang waves his hand.
Wen Yihuan seems to feel like saying something but he still bites his tongue.
Gao Ge knows what Wen Yihuan wants to say so he says, “I will make it back as early as possible.”
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm“Forget it.” Wen Yihuan waves his hand, “Sovereign, I know even the Star Sect is not as important as Yue Xincheng, let alone the opening ceremony.”
Gao Ge laughs, “Actually, Yue Xincheng is not the only one I care about. If I have to choose between the Star Sect and you one day, I will dismiss the Star Sect without hesitation.”
Wen Yihuan is slightly dazed and then his eyes become a bit complicated. He just says nothing anymore.
A group of people sends Gao Ge and Xia Shengtang to the foot of the mountain.
“If I cannot come back before the opening ceremony starts, you guys shall handle it,” Gao Ge says.
“Well...” Master Guanshan feels a bit dejected.
The sovereign doesn’t attend the opening ceremony of the sect? It is too absurd.
“By the way, if I cannot make it back in time, the souvenirs will be dealt with by Xia Lu. I’ve put those things in the bedside closet,” Gao Ge says, “I’ve prepared a lot. Don’t be too stingy.”
Xia Lu blinks her eyes and looks at Gao Ge in disbelief.
It is hard for her to believe that such words should be uttered by Gao Ge.
“Be careful.” At parting, Xia Lu can’t bear to see him leave.
Gao Ge laughs, holds out his hand to stroke Xia Lu’s hair and then turns to drive to the airport with Xia Shengtang.
Sitting in the car, Xia Shengtang asks, “What’s wrong with Yue Xincheng?”
“He has been caught,” Gao Ge says with a cold face.
“Haha. Interesting. I didn’t know anyone in Huaxia dared to catch the deputy sovereign of the Star Sect.” Xia Shengtang is amused.
Gao Ge really can’t laugh.
Over the phone, he could feel Qingrou’s flurry when she talked.
Evidently, Yue Xincheng is in a precarious situation.
“Oh right, you said that you were familiar with the Western Border Region?”
“Of course. Why would I lie to you?” Xia Shengtang holds his arms and looks out of the window, “I stayed in the Western Border Region for one year before.”
