The system asked me, a weak woman, to challenge a saint

According to the plan, the news that the Ghost Temple team entered the Misty Valley was conveyed in a secretive way along the way, avoiding the eyes and ears of the Ghost Gate guards. But it happened that Senior Brother Zhou's spy got the news, so Senior Brother Zhou immediately told the Ghost Gate Guards about the situation, and persuaded the Ghost Gate Guards to let some people pretend to launch an all-out war on the Ghost Temple territory in the Ghost City, and secretly sent elite forces He quietly followed the team from the Ghost Temple to the Misty Valley. This step went very smoothly.

At the same time, the spies of the Holy Clan are also paying close attention to the dynamics of the two parties. According to the prior agreement, when Senior Brother Zhou's people spread the news that the Ghost Temple and Ghost Gate guards had sent elite forces to the Misty Valley, the Saints would immediately send an absolutely superior manpower to the Misty Valley.

If the plan goes well, the expected melee will soon break out in the Misty Valley. As soon as the team from the Ghost Temple enters the Misty Valley, they will be attacked by the team guarding the Ghost Gate. The two sides did not speculate and started a fierce battle directly. The ghost temple has few monks and will definitely be at a disadvantage. At this time, the team of ghost monks who had taken refuge in the saints arrived in the Misty Valley. After they saw the ghost temple and ghost gate guards fighting, they immediately divided into two groups. Some of them went to the target location first, while the other group approached the ghost temple monks.

The melee between the ghost temple monks and the ghost gate guards was at its most intense. The people of the Holy Clan helped the Ghost Temple defeat the guards at the Ghost Gate. After gaining the trust of the Ghost Temple, they helped the Ghost Temple find the Ghost Jade. In fact, the Ghost Jade was already in the hands of the Holy Clan. Once they got the control method of the Ghost Temple or found a way Take control of the monk who can control the ghost jade. After he succeeds, he will use all his ambush troops to destroy the ghost temple monks.

The traitor Zhou Zimu even considered how to use the ghost gate guards to round up the remnants of the ghost temple monks who fled in all directions after defeating the ghost temple monks.

While he was secretly cheering for his plan, the team of ghost gate guards entered a canyon. Xiao Yuhan, who was following behind, was not in a hurry to follow the canyon. She was observing the terrain outside the canyon. The outside of the gorge is open and clear, and the inside of the gorge is dangerous and cool. The temperature difference between the inside and outside of the gorge is large, and the feeling is strong. Her mind enters the canyon and looks around. There are two steep cliffs on both sides, diagonally inserted into the sky, like a mountain being struck by a sharp ax. Open, through the sparse vines and dense vines, the tips of the branches and leaves, a line of blue sky is revealed. The nearby mountains are thousands of feet high, and this narrow wall is also up to a hundred feet high. The narrowest point can only allow two people to pass side by side.

Xiao Yuhan feels that the terrain here is full of dangers. Once a formation is set up for an ambush, the numerical advantage of the ghost gate guards will be greatly limited. Although they will not be massacred like mortals if they are ambushed in such terrain, if neither party wants to If she fights to the death, there may not be any casualties, but the march after the Ghost Gate Guard will enter alert mode, causing unnecessary trouble for her tracking.

Her mind didn't follow too closely, but she still saw the team of Ghost Gate Guards being stuck in a narrow canyon, and the passage was very slow. Xiao Yuhan complained in her mind why the Ghost Gate Guards took this road, but then she thought again, This path was not chosen by the ghost gate guards, but by the ghost temple monks. Even if they know that this road is very inconvenient, they still have to go. If they fly there forcefully, they will be noticed by the ghost temple. Xiao Yuhan doesn't dare to fly so close to the ghost gate guards even if he has the magic bell.

Xiao Yuhan saw a man dressed in a completely different style from the guards at the Ghost Gate getting off the carriage that could no longer move. The man was nervously checking the terrain. She estimated that this was Zhou Zimu, Liu'er's traitorous senior brother.

At this moment, everyone heard a sound like a clapper echoing crisply in the canyon. When the sound sounded for the second time, the canyon was suddenly shrouded in fog that suddenly appeared. There seemed to be some kind of power mixed in the mist, which could isolate the monk's conscious exploration. Xiao Yuhan's consciousness was forced back out of the canyon by the mist because it was not blessed by Tiangang's energy.

After Xiao Yuhan's consciousness returned to her body, she, He and Liu heard a huge roar from the canyon at the same time, like a mountain collapsing and the ground cracking, and there was a faint light penetrating the fog.

Obviously, the ghost temple monks were not deceived by the ghost gate guards' methods as Zhou Zimu planned. These ghost temple monks may have used some means from the beginning to observe the tracking of the ghost gate guards, so they led them into the canyon.

This attack on the ghost temple conveys an attitude that they are not afraid of the ghost gate guards. Although they took advantage of the terrain this time, their fighting skills were all-consuming. They were not afraid of confronting the ghost gate guards. This was indeed a bit surprising to Xiao Yuhan, who had been hiding in the ghost city for many years.

"The current situation in the canyon is unclear. The fog has the effect of suppressing the monks' consciousness. Let's not rush in for the time being. Just wait and see here." Xiao Yuhan said to the two women.

So the three of them moved to a sheltered place to observe. If there was a powerful spiritual power fluctuation, they would have time to prepare and would not be affected.

Xiao Yuhan observed the canyon for a while and found that the flash of light became more intense. She asked Master He next to her: "Master, your ghost temple doesn't look weak."

Mr. He rolled his eyes at her and said: "When did I say that the ghost temple is weak? The ghost temple monks are just not very good at conflicting with the ghost gate guards in the ghost market. The ghost ghost always doesn't like to practice, but he is not a fool. , you don’t think that all these years after the ghost jade was lost, the ghost temple relied on the mercy of the ghost gate guards to survive, right?”

Xiao Yuhan's eyes gradually shifted from the canyon to Master He. She suddenly became more interested in the ghost temple, so she said, "Master, tell me about the composition of the ghost temple."

Master He saw that Xiao Yuhan was not staring at the canyon, so she fixed her gaze on the other side of the canyon and said, "Liu'er, please tell Fellow Daoist Chen that I will watch the activities on the other side of the canyon for you."

Liu'er came to Xiao Yuhan's side happily. She didn't have much chance to speak along the way. Now she got the master's order and told Xiao Yuhan about the structure of the ghost temple in a serious manner.

"You've heard a lot about the Netherworld Ghost Elder and the High Priest, so I won't introduce them in detail. The Soul Burial Lottery also had several disciples who died before the master joined the Ghost Market. I heard it was for the Ghost Market. Development, but the master suspects that some of it is due to the struggle for power between ghost jade and power.

The great elder, Mr. Netherworld Ghost, is actually the only elder alive. He controls almost all the power in the ghost market. The master feels that the departure of the high priest is also caused by the failure of the power struggle.

In the ghost market, the ghost temple is divided into nine areas, which are governed by nine judges. Each of them has a unique name. In addition to being in charge of the ghost market and secular goods, they also have corresponding responsibilities in the ghost temple. They are:
