Chapter 67: I Have No Intentions of Causing Harm
Her little ghosts all curiously came out to take a look, especially the little black furball. It blankly circled the rock for a while and then looked around.
But there was no movement, let alone other hidden ghosts.
Yun Qin knew that at this moment, there must be hidden ghosts watching them in the dark, wary of their every move.
Sighing, Yun Qin said in a clear voice, “I know you can see me, and you can also see this black one of your kind.”
Her surroundings were quiet, she could only hear the sound of flowing water.
“I’m not here to cause any harm. First, I want to send this lonely hidden ghost to be with its own kind. Second, I want to ask the elders in the clan about the stone coffin in Black Bear Ridge.”
“Of course, I will pay you accordingly. At the same time, I promise that I will not do anything to hurt your tribe.”
There was still no movement in her surroundings. Yun Qin continued to speak loudly, “You can ask the two little guys who were leading the way just now. I have no intention of hurting you. I just have something important to ask.”
“This matter also concerns your clan. Can I at least get a chance to express myself?”
After she spoke, Yun Qin called the little black furball over and slowly stroked its fur while waiting for the hidden ghosts’ response.
After a while, a wave of evil energy suddenly appeared in the surroundings. Yun Qin quickly stood up.
After feeling a few waves of evil energy gradually approaching, a few hidden ghosts slowly appeared.
Walking in front was a brown-fur, slightly pale hidden ghost. It looked fairly old.
Behind it was three strong-looking hidden ghosts.
When she met the ghosts, the situation was quite awkward. It was Yun Qin who took the initiative and said, “Hello?”
The brown-fur hidden ghost who was leading the group blinked and looked at the little black furball beside Yun Qin.
The little black furball immediately translated, “Clan leader, can’t speak.”
Thus, Yun Qin could only rely on the little black furball’s clumsy translation to communicate with the clan leader.
“Do you have any other hidden ghosts here that can speak?”
Yun Qin was extremely frustrated by this method of communication, so she asked.
The clan leader indicated that there was an elder in the clan who was very old. They were planning on bringing Yun Qin to meet him and listen to the elder’s opinion.
As the hidden ghosts moved to the back of the waterfall, they removed their illusion spell and a cave entrance appeared in front of Yun Qin.
After passing through the cave entrance, everything was suddenly clear. Behind the small waterfall, there was a beautiful open space.
In the open space, not only were there all kinds of strange plants but there were also many shade-resistant and moisture-resistant flowers. On the tall trees, there were many night pearls for lighting.
Seeing a stranger come in, the grass-green hidden ghosts playing in the open space approached one after another, looking at Yun Qin with great curiosity.
Among them, there were the two that Yun Qin met at the beginning. When they saw Yun Qin, their eyes were bright as if they wanted to say something. However, when they saw the hidden ghosts behind Yun Qin, they shrunk back and lowered their heads.
She didn’t know what the strong hidden ghost behind her said to them, but quickly, the small hidden ghosts scattered away and continued to play in the middle of the open space.
Some of these small hidden ghosts were even smaller than the two that Yun Qin first met. They were naturally bred by the hidden ghosts here.
Seeing so many small ghosts born naturally in this place, Yun Qin felt complicated for a moment.
Compared to hidden ghosts that only became ghosts after death, these creatures that were born from ghosts were not quite ghosts nor quite monsters.
Seeing so many hidden ghosts here meant that the clan was growing stronger and that the hidden ghosts were doing their best to protect their clan.
No wonder they were so cautious. Yun Qin sighed silently.
The clan leader walked to the biggest tree. There was a wooden house hanging on the tree. Then, she heard the little black furball translate, “Please, go up.”
Yun Qin looked at the big tree without a ladder and felt a little helpless.
Usually, hidden ghosts could just jump up. However, she was a human, how could she jump that high?
Obviously, the hidden ghosts did not understand her struggle. They all stood to the side and watched Yun Qin’s movements.
What kind of authority does this elder have that she had to climb up to meet him? Yun Qin cursed in her heart.
Although the easiest method was to climb up the tree like a gecko, Yun Qin did not want to let little black furball lose face. She also wanted to show the hidden ghosts her strength because only then would she have a chance to negotiate.
Therefore, Yun Qin regained her composure and gathered her evil energy. Then, she controlled her evil energy to make herself into an unstable half-human half-ghost appearance.
