Chapter 550: What Did I Do Wrong?

Qing Ye was still somewhat bewildered; she had no idea what Wang Chun had gone through all these years. If she knew about Yuri Clones' abilities, she probably wouldn't be so composed.

She could never have imagined that there could be such a miraculous ability as Psychic Power in the world.

Wang Chun looked at Qing Ye, slowly released her, and turned to Yuri Clones. "Begin."

Before Qing Ye could react, Yuri Clones instantly took control of her. Whatever questions he asked, she would answer truthfully, without any falsehoods.

The Ghost Clan had some resistance to Psychic Power. Su Chen knew that this was the work of Spectral Moth. However, if the questions didn't involve crucial Ghost Clan secrets, they would not resist Psychic Power.

"Have you ever loved me?" Wang Chun's expression was conflicted, as if he wanted to know the answer but also didn't want to hear it.

In this situation, Qing Ye couldn't lie at all. She spoke in a dazed manner, "No, when I saved you back then, it was out of pity. The one I liked was only Ghost Emperor."

Hearing these words, Wang Chun felt as if a part of him had shattered. A bitter smile appeared on his face.

There was no need to ask any further. Wang Chun had elevated his strength for her, but she had never harbored such feelings. She only pitied him, and his dreams were shattered.

"Back then, when you stabbed my heart with a dagger, was it your own will?"

"Yes."

In that moment, Wang Chun felt a sense of hopelessness. He waved his hand at Yuri Clones. In the next second, Qing Ye returned to her normal state, but the memories of what had just transpired still lingered in her mind.

Her face paled as she realized that her previous answers must have caused Wang Chun to lose all feelings for her. This couldn't be allowed.

"Wang Chun, what I said earlier wasn't true. It was all..." Qing Ye tried to explain, but Wang Chun didn't want to hear it anymore.

Wang Chun turned and walked away, leaving Qing Ye behind and gradually letting go of his aspiration to become Ghost Emperor.

Why had he become Ghost Emperor in the first place? It was all for her. However, the harsh reality had made it impossible for even a Small Galaxy-level powerhouse to endure.

Seeing Wang Chun leave without hesitation, Qing Ye's expression kept changing. It finally turned into a scream, "What did I do wrong? I just wanted to live a better life. What did I do wrong?"

Wang Chun's steps paused for a moment, but he didn't turn back. He walked out of the Grand Hall, leaving behind Qing Ye's agonizing cries and the unconscious Ghost Emperor.

Wang Chun seemed to have forgotten the old saying: "Cut the weeds and remove the roots, spring winds will blow again." But as one of Su Chen's soldiers, Yuri Clones, with a single Psychic impact, had eliminated Ghost Emperor when he was defenseless.

The moment the Ghost Clan outside sensed the energy fluctuations disappearing inside, they knew the battle had ended. They just didn't know who had won.

"It must be Ghost Emperor. Ghost Emperor possesses unparalleled strength among the Ghost Clan. Who could be stronger than him?"

The strong Ghost Clan members spoke with absolute certainty. However, when Wang Chun and Yuri Clones emerged from the Grand Hall, they were all stunned.

As for Yuri Clones, no one recognized him. Even Wang Chun had been extremely low-key in the past. Those who knew him among the Ghost Clan could be counted on one hand. For a moment, no one could identify these two individuals.

A human had actually entered the Ghost Emperor Palace right under their noses. This was a slap in their faces. Furthermore, this Ghost Clan member had brought a human with them, a clear act of betrayal against the Ghost Clan. This was unforgivable.

"What did you do to Ghost Emperor?" an eighth-order Ghost Clan member stepped forward.

"Ghost Emperor?" Wang Chun sneered and looked at the Ghost Clan members. "From now on, I am the Ghost Emperor!"

Qing Ye was no longer the Qing Ye in his heart, but the position of Ghost Emperor was something he wouldn't easily relinquish to anyone else. When Yuri Clones killed Ghost Emperor, he didn't intervene, all for this moment.

"Insolence!" A powerful member of the Ghost Clan shouted and charged forward to kill this Ghost Clan traitor.

A person who could kill Ghost Emperor, and yet this eighth-order Ghost Clan dared to rush in. Had he lost his mind?

Not at all!

In reality, this eighth-order Ghost Clan had his own ulterior motives. He believed that with the strength of Lord Ghost Emperor, confronting this Ghost Clan would definitely not end well for him. In other words, the opponent might be barely holding on. If he were to kill the traitor in this highly publicized situation, even if he couldn't become Ghost Emperor, he would surely receive a substantial reward.

Never underestimate the intelligence of the Ghost Clan.

"As long as I kill him, I'll be a hero of the Ghost Clan!"

Before the eighth-order Ghost Clan could show a triumphant smile, Wang Chun extended a hand and calmly seized the eighth-order Ghost Clan's head. To outsiders, it appeared as if the eighth-order Ghost Clan had willingly offered his head.

"No..."

Fear filled the eyes of the eighth-order Ghost Clan. Before he could utter a word, Wang Chun exerted force, and his head exploded in his grasp, the corpse casually discarded on the ground.

An eighth-order Ghost Clan died in such a humiliating manner.

This was an eighth-order Ghost Clan, a formidable warrior who could serve as a general on the outside. Yet he died like this, a fact that left the other Ghost Clan members in shock.

"For offending Ghost Emperor, what should be the punishment?" Wang Chun's lips curved into a faint smile, though it seemed rather odd in this context.

"You are also a member of my Ghost Clan; you should know that to become Ghost Emperor, there are several prerequisites. The first is that you must possess the Ghost Clan Royal Bloodline to qualify as Ghost Emperor. May I inquire whose descendant you are, honored Ghost Emperor?" The one speaking was the ninth-level peak Ghost Master. His insight was far superior to that of other Ghost Clan members. After fighting alongside Ghost Emperor and emerging unscathed, it was evident that his combat strength might surpass his own. What was more important was that there had been no sign of Ghost Emperor so far; he suspected that Ghost Emperor might have fallen.

Ghost Clan couldn't be without an Emperor for a day. As long as he could prove the formidable strength of the Ghost Clan before him, even if he became Ghost Emperor, it wouldn't matter.

In other words, the Ghost Master's words were to offer the other party a way out. As long as the other party wasn't foolish and casually claimed a Royal Bloodline, everything else would naturally follow.

However, he didn't know that Wang Chun was a very stubborn member of the Ghost Clan.

"I am not of Royal Bloodline, just a lowly Ghost Clan."

The Ghost Master frowned. The other party was so uncooperative. You could just fabricate a Royal Bloodline identity, and I wouldn't actually investigate it. Your strength is evident, and who would dare to prevent you from becoming Ghost Emperor?

But when the other party made it so obvious, he was at a loss.

"How should I address you?"

"Wang Chun."

Just as the Ghost Master was preparing to continue questioning for relevant information, a figure stumbled out of the Ghost Emperor Palace. It was Qing Ye.

"He killed Ghost Emperor! What are you waiting for? Hurry up and kill him!" (To be continued...)
