CH 62

Duan Changqing has heard people talk about the High Priest more than once.

But the High Priest is too mysterious, and those he came in contact with are not familiar with the High Priest.

Therefore, he only learned that the High Priest is very strong and elusive, and that something happened to the High Priest during the Holy City rebellion a while ago.

The original owner of his body was very weak, and although he had spiritual marrow in his body, he could not not draw spiritual power into his body like other priests.

He’s an ordinary person through and through – no, he’s weaker than an ordinary person.

How can such an ordinary person be a High Priest? Duan Changqing never even thought of such a possibility.

However, when Wen Che said that the High Priest fell into the river after his death, he already felt something was wrong. Now that he saw this photo, he was sure of one thing.

The original owner of this body is the High Priest.

The Ghost King thought he was a warrior beside the High Priest, but…he’s actually the High Priest?

They made things up and said that Xie Yunnan had the inheritance of the High Priest…he never thought it was the truth.

Seeing Duan Changqing staring at the photo of the High Priest, Wen Che said, “The High Priest is still a child, but unfortunately he was murdered by a traitor…”

“Child?” Duan Changqing was shocked.

Wen Che said, “He’s your age! He’s much thinner than you!”

“I can’t tell from the photos…”

“This kid doesn’t want to show weakness, so every time he appears in front of people, he wears thick clothes.” Wen Che is not too young, and people of his age like to ramble about.

“The High Priest has always worn a mask, do you have a way to confirm his identity?” Duan Changqing asked again.

Wen Che said: “No… but the Holy City can do identification.” He had to bring the High Priest’s body back to the Holy City to confirm his identity.

Since he entered this body, he must also bear the cause and effect of the original owner.

It’s fine when he didn’t know, but now that he knows… Duan Changqing intends to recognize this person.

But this person obviously didn’t recognize him…

Duan Changqing said, “Actually, I was also picked up by Xie Yunnan from that river.”

Wen Che was puzzled.

Duan Changqing said again: “I also forgot my past… Do you think I might be the High Priest?”

“Ha! Dream on!” Wen Che got angry, turned around with a sneer, and left.

This Duan Changqing wants to pretend to be the High Priest… how bold!

Ignored, Duan Changqing sighed, and slowly focused on recuperating.

He is the High Priest, but he has no way to prove that he is the High Priest.

How embarrassing!

Duan Changqing practiced for two hours until it was dawn when Wen Che came and picked him up, and headed straight for Hongye Forest.

At the same time, Xie Yunnan, who had learned fighting skills all night, planned to save Duan Changqing.

“I’ll go with you.” Ghost King said.

When Duan Changqing was just captured yesterday, the Ghost King was still very calm. He felt that Duan Changqing should come back by himself soon.

No matter how bad it is, he should’ve contacted him and let him cooperate with acting or something.

However, Duan Changqing never came back after one night.

Is Duan Changqing in trouble?

Or did something else happen?

Although his son suddenly became a high-level priest after hugging his thighs, the Ghost King was worried about his son acting alone, and planned to go with him.

“They asked me to go alone…” Xie Yunnan worried. Not only is he afraid that Duan Changqing will have an accident because of this, but also that his father will follow him and fall into the trap.

“After I hide my figure, there are only a handful of people in this world who can find my traces! I know that old man, and he will never find me.” He replied.

He knows Wen Che, a ninth-level warrior from the High Priest’s side.

In the past, he and Wen Che were equal in strength, but because Wen Che received the High Priest’s treatment, his body was healthier and would win if they fought.

But now it’s different.

Although he hasn’t fully recovered from his internal injuries, his strength has greatly improved after practicing those exercises given by Duan Changqing.

He can definitely beat Wencher!

His current deception skills are no longer as simple as before. Isn’t Shi Haiyuan so afraid of him now and will hide away whenever he sees him?

The Ghost King made up his mind to go with Xie Yunnan, and Xie Yunnan had no choice but to set out with him.

When they were about to save people, on the other side, Liao Muye disguised himself and left Hongye City.

Liao Muye wanted to leave before, but he continued to endure. During this time, he contacted his own people and asked them to provoke the relationship between the rebel forces.

In his previous life, he was the city owner at this time. Back then there were many people who refused to accept him and targeted him everywhere.

With the backing of Hongye City’s big families and the Ghost King’s forces, those people couldn’t do anything to him, and could only make noises.

Now, Xie Yunnan is only a low-level priest, and there is no one else behind him except the Ghost King; those people must be even more dissatisfied.

As he expected, someone went to find Xie Yunnan’s fault.

It’s just… He thought that Xie Yunnan would be unlucky, but in the end Xie Yunnan became a senior priest?

The treasure left by the High Priest is much more useful than that exotic plant!

Knowing this, he should’ve retrieved the body of the High Priest earlier!

Now that Xie Yunnan has become a senior priest, he has no chance to fight Xie Yunnan… Liao Muye could only leave.

However… There are many people in the Holy City who dislike Xie Yunnan. When he arrives in the Holy City, he will definitely find someone willing to help him deal with Xie Yunnan and the Ghost King.

There are still some opportunities that originally belonged to Xie Yunnan waiting for him!

Liao Muye left in despair, along with some other members of the big families.

——

Wen Che gave Xie Yunnan an address, but he didn’t go to that address to wait for Xie Yunnan.

He put another note at that address, directing Xie Yunnan to the next address…

Repeating this several times, Xie Yunnan feared it would be afternoon before he met him.

Therefore, Wen Che and his men even had time to cook in Hongye Forest.

They didn’t specifically go and hunt, they just randomly grabbed something and roasted it along the way.

While eating, Wen Che also looked at Duan Changqing: “You say, will Xie Yunnan come save you?”

“He will.” Duan Changqing said.

Xie Yunnan is very responsible. Even if he doesn’t like him, he will definitely come to save him.

Not to mention… Xie Yunnan should like him.

When Wen Che kidnapped Duan Changqing yesterday, he was not sure that Xie Yunnan would come, but after investigating Xie Yunnan yesterday, he felt that Xie Yunnan should come.

That guy… is a nice guy.

While waiting for Xe Yunnan, Wen Che didn’t know that one of his subordinates secretly contacted others.

Among the people on the High Priest’s side, some were loyal, and others betrayed the High Priest in the previous rebellion.

People like Wen Che, who are loyal to the High Priest, hate those betrayers more than those two senior priests.

Those betrayers naturally knew this and wanted to completely eradicate Wen Che and the others to feel at ease.

Confrontation coming up!
