Chapter 64 The End of Storm

"You don't even know that?"

"I only heard of it once, but... it is actually real?"

"Of course. If the Ghost King, Hua Chengzu is real, so is his Ghost City!"

That peaks Wei Wuxian's interest, "Hmm... How can I enter the Ghost City?"

"Oh... You don't have to worry about such a thing! The Ghost City welcomes everyone who wants to enter it, even living humans could enter."

Ghost City, like he said, he only heard of it, but he found no clue of its existence, so Wei Wuxian drop it just a tale, but now, right Infront of his eyes the gates of Ghost City is opening.

*****

The war have ended upon Tiao Kanglin's and Evil Tortoise's death...

How is that possible?

With the news of defeat of the last line of defense, Wen Chao went into hiding, disappeared to everyone's radar, together with some remaining cultivators that still believing that prominent sects or the Suns must shot down, and they are not the only thing the prominent sects have lost, but also the clues about Wen Ruohan.

Everyone thinks that the missing Sect Leader of Wen Clan has already died, and maybe Wen Chao and Wen Xiu has done something to his body that's why no one could find it.

Some thinks that his corpse were might been eaten by Tiao Kanglin's Xuanwu, but Tiao Reinshun claims that she never once feel his spiritual energy or a bit of soul there.

So... Wei Wuxian and the others continue to search for Wen Ruohan's being.

As for Tiao Liujuan, after hearing everything that occured against Tiao Kanglin, Tiao Liujuan has place a placate with Tiao Kanglin's name next to the placate of his wife, and everyday, every night, him and Tiao Reinshun would offer a prayer for them.

They just doesn't making it obvious but they are both heartbroken upon Tiao Kanglin's death. They thought, that a time would come where they could still spend moments together as a family, but Tiao Liujuan didn't even able to see nor hold his child for the last time.

That's some of the things that everyone faces after the war.

Because of many deaths during the campaign, there also a lot of new born resentful spirits in various locations, most are spirits of cultivators, and some are from innocent, harmless, ordinary, and normal people that had been killed just because they caught on the heat of battle.

The sects send out their disciples to defeat these resentful spirits, and also to cleanse the areas that are affected.

Tiao Reinshun sighs after finishing at reading the documents in her hand, she pinch the bridge of her nose and rest her back on her chair. Since coming back Tiao Reinshun has been tied into this kind of jobs, not going out nor even allow to meet anyone else but Zhuque Sect's Heads, Head Disciples and Hua Xie.

The thing about her real origin were being question by several sects, and her humanity is being included on the problem. Most people—Sect Leader Yao the one that ignites the doubts, making them afraid of her and the power hiding within Zhuque Sect; and even though they already told them that nothing needs to be afraid of, those who are actually wants Zhuque Sect to fall, insists on locking Tiao Reinshun away.

Really, there's nothing needed to fear about Tiao Reinshun.

They are just simply afraid of the strength that Zhuque Sect has.

Such a ironic thing.

Before Wei Wuxian come in Zhuque Sect, there are less than five people were aware of their existence, not really bothered, worst their sect were being look down. Yet now, look at how work up they are.
