Chapter 601 A Ghost Town in the Making

Jiang Xiao glanced around the room, thought for a moment, and pointed to Han Jiangxue's position, saying, "Her name is Han Jiangxue, she's my sister, go play with her."

Xiao Chongyang's big eyes lit up slightly, and she asked, "Jiang Xiao's sister?"

Jiang Xiao smiled and patted He Chongyang's head, saying, "That's right, from now on, she's your sister too. Listen to her obediently, just like you listen to me, okay?"

Xiao Chongyang was a pure iron-head, and didn't know what "shy" meant. She ran to the sofa, stood prettily in front of Han Jiangxue, and curiously sized her up.

Han Jiangxue put down the Swift Lightning-type Star Bead in her hand. Han Jiangxue was also one of the few in the Tail Feathers team who knew Xiao Chongyang's information.

Han Jiangxue reached out and gently straightened the slightly messy bangs on Xiao Chongyang's forehead, "Hello, Xiao Chongyang."

"Oh." Xiao Chongyang nodded, but didn't know what to say. This was Jiang Xiao's sister, how should she please her?

In desperation, Xiao Chongyang grabbed Little Star Dragon's dragon horns, and pulled the Star Dragon's head over, saying, "Look! Beautiful, right!"

Little Star Dragon: ???

Han Jiangxue seemed not to have heard it. Her hand reached past Star Dragon's brilliant skin, and her fingers landed on the bone necklace on Xiao Chongyang's chest, pinching the small slate hanging below the necklace.

A circle of lines was engraved on the small slate. Obviously, this was a pattern of a "circle mask."

Slender fingers gently stroked the lines on the small slate. Han Jiangxue said softly, "This is what he looked like when you first met him."

Xiao Chongyang nodded seriously, "Yes, that's right, he was wearing a mask. When he smiled, the circle mask would open, it was very strange."

On the side, Jiang Xiao walked to Er Wei's side, and with her figure, disappeared in a flash.

Er Wei's eyes blurred, and her sitting posture instantly changed to a squatting posture. Her legs were slightly bent, and she stood firmly on the ground, but she saw an old hand in front of her.

Zi Po, standing by the tree-covered bridge, shivered, as if she had seen a ghost. When she saw that they were two humans, Zi Po hurriedly greeted them, summoning the broken bowl and thick soup again.

Jiang Xiao held the broken bowl in both hands, and said, "Xiao Chongyang was modified by me. If there are no accidents, I can modify a few more people, drastically explore and realize the potential of Star Warriors, allowing Star Warriors to improve their Star Power realm and physical fitness in a short period of time."

Er Wei: ???

"Glug, glug, glug..." Jiang Xiao drank another bowl of soup, took a step back, and gestured for Er Wei to try it, "That old man sealed my Star Slots, closed the doors and windows for me, but gave me a book and told me to study it carefully."

Er Wei stepped forward, glanced at the color of the soup, and also raised her head to drink it.

Jiang Xiao said, "The name of this book is *Star Warrior Chronicle*, it encompasses everything. I still can't understand most of it, but there's one page that I'm quite proficient in, and that's the page about exploring and realizing potential.

Back then, when I first met that old man, he used this page of the *Star Warrior Chronicle* to transform my body and improve my Star Power realm."

Er Wei: "He's cultivating you, but also sealing your Star Slots, limiting your performance."

"Yeah..." Jiang Xiao nodded, "Obviously, he wants me to switch combat styles and become a close combat fighter, so that I can grow faster."

Er Wei let go of the broken bowl, looked up at the smiling Zi Po, and replied, "Why?"

Jiang Xiao hesitated for a moment, and said, "Because of the special nature of my Star Chart, he believes that my Star Chart is about space-based Star Techniques, so it can help him better explore this world. Otherwise, he might have sealed my Time-Space Rift and Calamity Shadow Territory Star Slots as well."

Er Wei asked, "What is 'better explore this world'?"

The information Jiang Xiao reported was not comprehensive, he only said that he met a inexplicable old man, who brought him terrible shackles.

Hearing this, Jiang Xiao explained, "That old man believes that the world we live in is a space-based Star Technique of a certain Star Warrior. That old man doesn't have the ability to break through the space barrier, so he hopes that I, who possesses a space-based Star Chart, can help him fulfill this dream."

Er Wei's expression stiffened slightly, she turned around, lowered her head to look at Jiang Xiao, and said, "Like your Calamity Shadow planet, a Star Warrior's space."

As she spoke, Er Wei stepped on the ground beneath her feet.

Jiang Xiao shrugged his shoulders, "When I heard such a statement, I was very surprised, but as I read the *Star Warrior Chronicle*, my heart became more and more shaken."

Jiang Xiao suddenly changed the subject and said, "Do you know the secret to using the *Star Warrior Chronicle*?"

Er Wei: "Hmm?"

Jiang Xiao held up one finger: "Believe! If you don't believe it, it's just a broken book. As long as you believe, this all-encompassing book will reveal a lot of information, bring a lot of benefits, and transform the human body, which is one of them."

As he spoke, Jiang Xiao asked, "You've already entered the Starry Sky stage, right?"

Er Wei: "It was three months ago."

"Yeah." Jiang Xiao reached out and pretended to pinch her arm, as if he was feeling her body strength, "I guarantee you'll enter at least the mid-Starry Sky stage, or maybe even the late-Starry Sky stage. The effect varies from person to person, depending on your own luck."

Er Wei frowned, without responding. Jiang Xiao's words were indeed beyond her imagination.

"*Star Warrior Chronicle*, that's also the old man's Hua Xing Cheng Wu, which I copied over." Jiang Xiao paused, and continued, "But what you should pay attention to is that the Hua Xing Cheng Wu on that page has a limit to the number of times it can be used.

I'm not sure if I can transform all the members of the Tail Feathers team, just so you know, so you can have a number in mind."

Jiang Xiao didn't hide anything. He completely trusted Er Wei.

Er Wei pondered for a moment, and asked, "No side effects?"

Jiang Xiao shrugged his shoulders, "Some people have already been tested, my several mecha, Xiao Chongyang, including San..."

At this point, Jiang Xiao fell silent.

Er Wei also realized something, she looked down at Jiang Xiao, her brows slightly frowned, and said, "Where is she now?"

Jiang Xiao said, "After the Huaxia army came up, she couldn't stay on this land anymore, so she left to explore outside. In addition, I have to advise you, she is still a member of my Starfall Team.

Back then, she accompanied me through Bei Jiang, Zhong Ji, Liao Dong, Zhong Yuan, Lu Dong, Da Meng... Although she has now left this land, she can be considered to have made great achievements. If you see her again one day, be calm."

Jiang Xiao didn't say how strong the blind woman was at this time. Such words can threaten most people, but for Er Wei, threatening her with strength is obviously not a clear move. She is someone who responds to kindness, not force.

Hearing this, Er Wei also fell silent.

At this time, an old hand, holding a bowl of soup, was handed over again.

Jiang Xiao: "..."

In fact, Zi Po was also very puzzled. The two of them just stood in front of her and started chatting.

Zi Po didn't understand Chinese. She thought that these two people hadn't had enough to drink, so she made another bowl of Meng Po soup and handed it over. (Soup of Oblivion)

The meaning was obvious, children, is it enough?

If it's not enough, Granny still has more...

Jiang Xiao stepped forward, pulled back the topic, and said, "After I transform you, I'll have to be in a coma for at least a day. Jiang Gong will report to you on all the team's situation. While everyone is absorbing Star Beads, Tail Feathers must also update their intelligence. I'll transform you in a while."

As he spoke, Jiang Xiao stood on his toes, and his mouth approached the edge of the broken bowl, allowing the old woman to feed him.

Jiang Xiao finished drinking the second bowl of soup, filled himself with water, and contentedly took Er Wei, and flashed into the depths of the tree-covered forest. He didn't dare to stay by Zi Po's side, he was really going to be force-fed to death in a while...

Under the cover of night, the tree-covered forest was silent. Jiang Xiao said, "Remember to carry my body back in a while. Also, before the transformation, the most important thing."

Er Wei: "Yeah."

Jiang Xiao said, "You're late!"

Er Wei was expressionless, and her voice was hoarse, "You were late in cleaning up Da Jiang."

Jiang Xiao looked distressed, "You can blame me for this too?"

As he spoke, Jiang Xiao suddenly waved his hand, and Er Wei subconsciously tilted her body.

However, the pillar of light of Blessing did not fall, and Er Wei's body was also frozen in place.

Such a conditioned reflex made this frozen picture seem a bit comical~

Although most of the Star Slots were sealed, a man's name is like the shadow of a tree!

It's confirmed!

Jiu Xing Du Nai's prestige is still there! (Nine Star Poisonous Milk)

The scariest thing... is when the air suddenly becomes quiet...

Under Er Wei's gaze, Jiang Xiao couldn't help but shiver. He hurriedly summoned the *Star Warrior Chronicle*, and quickly searched for the page with the human body structure diagram.

Er Wei lowered her head, her eyes fixed on Jiang Xiao. Her chest rose and fell slightly, as if she was trying her best to control something.

Jiang Xiao looked up and said, "Don't move, don't move~ You only have one chance."

Er Wei's expression was stiff. She endured it for a long time, and finally nodded slowly.

In the next moment, in her sight, a series of mysterious Star Power text symbols floated out from the thick book, surrounding her body.

In Jiang Xiao's sight, however, there were no Star Power symbols around Er Wei.

There was only a human body structure diagram, slowly overlapping with Er Wei's body, and after continuous debugging, it perfectly matched the lines of Er Wei's body.

......

At the same time, far away from the Flower Sea Ranch, on a small mountain, a tall figure quietly appeared in front of a tomb.

"Pa!"

A bag of Star Beads slipped from his hand, fell to the ground, and made a crisp sound.

The first thing Gu Shian saw when he came here was the photo on the tombstone.

And the second thing he saw was the withered bunch of white flowers on the stone slab.

The simple bunch of white flowers caused a ripple in Gu Shian's heart.

He stood in front of the tomb and looked around.

Although weeds had grown again around the tomb, compared to the near-primitive environment in the distance, the area around the tomb clearly had been cleared.

Gu Shian slowly knelt down, and his fingers trembled as he touched the dried white flowers, and he could still vaguely imagine what they looked like when they were in full bloom.

Gu Shian didn't have the Hua Xing Cheng Wu of the Nine Star Eyes, and couldn't rewind time.

But kneeling here, he seemed to be able to see a figure clearing and worshiping in front of this tomb.

"Mom, he came to see you for me, didn't he?" Gu Shian said softly, and a layer of mist faintly rose in his eyes.

He wiped his eyes with the back of his hand, sighed softly, and murmured in a low voice: "I'm sorry, Mom. It was my carelessness that kept me too far away from you. It won't happen again."

He reached out and cleaned the dust in front of the stone slab, and spoke softly, as if he was talking about his recent situation.

Under the night, on the small mountain full of flowers, there was a silence.

......

At the same time, by the Forest Lake.

At the entrance of the Tree-Covered Forest, the old woman guarding the bridge suddenly discovered that in the depths of the forest, a faint light was lit up.

Ghost fire?

No, that seems to be... a pair of eyes?

A pair of eyes full of Star Power, as if they couldn't suppress the surging power within, and were overflowing with terrifying energy.

That pair of faint eyes was like a ferocious beast in the dark night, but for Zi Po, it was more like a fierce ghost in prison.

Zi Po hesitated for a moment, and endured the fear in her heart, and did not hide behind the big tree next to her.

And the ferocious and terrifying ghost with an astonishing aura, carrying a body that was unknown whether it was dead or alive, slowly walked over.

What was rather strange was that the old woman did not wave her hand to call, nor did she reach out to hand over the soup.

This seemingly inadvertent small detail completely subverted the setting of Zi Po, this type of Star Beast!

The human-shaped beast that walked slowly was a little shaky, and did not ask for the soup either, but stepped onto the Tree-Covered Wood Bridge and slowly left.

Zi Po still took a step back and hid behind the huge Tree-Covered Wood.

It wasn't because of fear, but because the baleful aura on that fierce ghost was too heavy. With every step it took, bursts of energy surged around, and the spreading Star Power made people unable to help but feel flustered.

Zi Po put one hand on the tree, carefully looked back, watching the fierce ghost step on the wooden bridge, her heart ached~

You damned ghost, why do you still have feet, can't you even float?

Hey... my bridge, please don't be crushed...

Under Zi Po's turbid gaze, the fierce ghost in her heart slowly walked towards the distant stone house.

Although she was a little frightened, and although she felt sorry for her wooden bridge, Zi Po was quite gratified.

Finally, this place had a bit of the appearance it should have as a ghost area...

After that fierce ghost goes back, it should transform the stone house into her exclusive "Ghost City," right?

In this way, there should be a constant stream of warriors stepping on this bridge to conquer that stone Ghost City. Her guests should be getting more and more, right?

At least more guests than the bridge she guarded before?

Zi Po thought in her heart, Star Power flashed in her hand, and she made another bowl of soup. She was frightened, and her palm trembled as she brought the broken bowl to her mouth and sipped it little by little.

Ghost King descends!

Ghost City is promising!

Everything is getting better!

Well, I'll take a sip of soup first to calm my nerves...

...
