Yun Ran put away her knife and scanned the area, but she did not see the King of Ghouls.
She asked curiously, "Why don't I see the ghoul king with his broken arm? Is he hiding like a scaredy cat?"
The secret guards also found it strange. They had already killed their way to the ghouls' nest. Where was the King of the Ghouls? Did he really think he was a turtle that could hide under its shall?
The secret guards went to ask around and found out from a blood slave that the King of Ghouls had gone to the forbidden area deep in the forest and was not in Black City at all.
"The so-called forbidden area is a place that only the kings and elders of the ghoul clan can enter. The blood slaves and blood servants don't know what's there because no blood slave or blood servant can come out alive after entering. It's said that there are secrets of the ghoul clan there."
