East Wing of the Ghost Emperor Castle, Study Hall
"Gui Wen, where have you been?" the ghost emperor asked after noticing his subordinate's arrival.
"Reporting to your majesty, Ye Shin and I went to explore the town," Gui Wen politely bowed his head and answered. He had managed to calm himself after the encounter of the scarlet lord.
The ghost emperor looked up and observed him. "You explored the town? What do you think of her?"
Gui Wen shifted his foot and felt uncomfortable. His movement did not escape to the ghost emperor's gaze.
"Did something happen in the town?" he asked before his subordinate could respond to his first query.
"Your majesty, I suspect that Ye Shin is using black magic. But her technique is different than what we are practicing in the entire ghost realm," Gui Wen stated. He contemplated whether he would also report the matter about the destruction of the scarlet lord's mansion.
