The man standing in the middle of the road was of course Green. Ash had sent his shadows to track Ch'ang O's every move ever since she left Casa city. When she arrived at the mountain, he ordered for the black fog to separate.
Green bowed to Ch'ang O , and said, "Welcome, Miss Ch'ang O. My master knew that you were coming here today, so he specially ordered me to come greet you. Please follow me." Having said that, the black fog split again and out came Alien. Green jumped on its head, then it turned its huge body and walked straight up the mountain. Ash had turned Alien from Shadow to undead.
Ch'ang O didn't know what to do for a moment, but as she saw Green walking away, all she could do was tell the carriage driver to follow him.
Anderson's face didn't look so good as he watched Green. "Ch'ang O, this Sasuke isn't so simple. It's likely that he really destroyed Garan. He was actually aware of our whereabouts, so he would have known in advance if Garan had tried to set up an ambush."
Ch'ang O nodded. "I didn't think that Sasuke would be so powerful. Oh, but the more powerful he is, the better. We need a formidable ally."
Anderson was sullen as he muttered. "Allies that are too formidable might not necessarily be a good thing."
The guards surrounded Ch'ang O's carriage as they walked up the road. The black fog enveloped them from behind, like a monster that had swallowed them, making everyone unconsciously speed up.
Ch'ang O noticed that huge change in Blue hill Castle. It looked completely new and very grand. Ch'ang O could tell from its size that Sasuke must have used at least few million gold coins to construct this huge castle.
The doors of the manor were opened. Inside were two rows of humanoid undead standing in line. The bodies of these humanoid black shadows was standing. They looked completely different from Undead. But the Aura around them was stronger than a undead.
These two rows added up to nearly one hundred shadows, each of them wearing armor that was usually worn by mercenaries, and they were carrying weapons.
When Ch'ang O and Anderson saw how they were dressed, they couldn't help but look at each other's eyes as they understood. They knew that sometime ago, Garan had brought a lot of mercenaries to deal with Sasuke. And Ch'ang O remembered that the first time she met Zhao, he had summoned a lot of shadows, but very few of them were humanoid ones. Yet suddenly there were so many humanoid undead. If you add in their outfits, it was natural to figure out where they came from.
Green was sitting on Alien at the back of the yard. When Ch'ang O's carriage stopped in front of him, he jumped down and stood next to the carriage, then he bowed. "Please, Miss, my master is waiting for you in the living room."
Ch'ang O nodded, then she, her maid Nier, and Anderson got down from the carriage. Green then turned to her and said, "Miss, please tell your men to follow the undead. They will take them somewhere to rest." He pointed his finger at the shadows, and they all immediately bowed to Ch'ang O.
Ch'ang O and Anderson were surprised for a moment. They were very well-informed, but they had never seen a smart shadows before. Although they were surprised, Ch'ang O turned to the leader of the guards and said, "Sergio, follow them and go rest."
Sergio nodded as he and his men followed the undead.
Green led Ch'ang O, Nier, and Anderson around the yard. Along the way, Ch'ang O stole some glances to look at everything. Although it wasn't much, the yard did go through some renovations, making it cleaner. As the four continued on, Ch'ang O's and Anderson's eyes found the ditch where the hot springs flowed through.
The last time she was here, the hot springs weren't anything to take note of, but this time, it was all she could see. That was because of the fire fish.
Dense. They couldn't count the number of fire fish that were packed inside the ditch. Seeing this scene stunned both Ch'ang O and Anderson. They were very clear about the situation of Stony Mountain. These hot springs were unsuitable to raise so many fire fish, but not only were they alive and well, they were even bigger than the average-sized small fire fish. How was this possible?
Green couldn't help but smile as he watched the two stop and stare. Of course, he had deliberately led them here. After seeing the fire fish, it would ease their talks of cooperation. Green then turned to the three and said, "Miss, my master is waiting for you inside."
Ch'ang O snapped back to reality, but then she pointed at the fire fish and stammered, "This, this, how did you do this?"
Green smiled slightly. "This is our home. Please come inside." Then he led them into the reception room of one of the buildings.
Ch'ang O could see that Green didn't want to say, so she didn't ask anymore questions. She just exchanged a surprised look with Anderson as they followed behind Green into the reception room.
Ash, and Meg were standing in the reception room, waiting for Ch'ang O and her group. When he saw Ch'ang O enter, Ash said, "Welcome, Miss Ch'ang O. I didn't think that when you just got back yesterday, you will be able to see me today. I am really honored."
This time Ash was using his transformation Jutsu to change his appearance into a ordinary and commo looking boy. Ash also deactivated his Tenseigan, his eyes had returned to normal.
