By the time TianGou got the notice that someone had made their home in the Ghost Tomb Mountain Range, You XiaoMo and the others had pretty much finished their home.

The palace was vast and desolate, so You XiaoMo took out all of his past furniture and even got some plants for the hallways. Although there were only four people living there, once it was carefully furnished, it became full.

By the time Tian Dao sent people over, they already settled down.

Due to the current climate of Xi Jing, when they weren’t sure if it was friend or foe, TianGou took greater care in their approach. However, as careful as they were, they were still sent rolling down the hill by Ling Xiao.

The ones who were sent to investigate were the disciples of Hua Gu, a man called Xiao San (little three/third-wheel) and another called Hua Diao. Since it was easy to remember, they all called them that.

Before, Xiao San wasn’t even at the Imperial Realm, however, ever since he joined the Weeping Ghost Shore with Hua Gu, he became an Imperial Realm practitioner. However, that was still pretty weak and traveling in the Ghost Tomb Mountain Range was as if traveling beside death’s door. But, that didn’t mean he was useless.

Tian Dao gave him a magic pill that could hid his scent, with that, if he wasn’t stupid, he shouldn’t be found. Xiao San was very reliant on the pill, thus when he was struck by Ling Xiao, his whole expression went blank. You XiaoMo even started to wonder if he hit his head and went stupid or something.

“Why do I think he looks familiar?” You XiaoMo said as he tilted his head and looked quizzically at Xiao San. He wasn’t to blame since it was years ago when they last met and that was when Xiao San was still a passerby. It was normal that he didn’t recognize him.

However, just because he couldn’t didn’t mean Ling Xiao couldn’t either. With one look he replied casually, “He’s probably one of Hua Gu’s disciples.”

You XiaoMo made a face of sudden enlightenment and said, “What’s your name?”

Finally Xiao San came to his senses. You XiaoMo and Ling Xiao made a lasting impression on him, if it wasn’t for them, the three of them would still be a hired thugs (hatchet man) in Xing Luo City. Hua Gu wouldn’t be regarded highly by TianGou either. Now, they were much stronger than before.

“Bo-Boss, it’s you! When did you guys come back?” Stripping away his dumb look, Xiao San said with excitement. “Oh, my real name is Hua Shan but everyone calls me Xiao San.”

You XiaoMo nodded and asked, “Why are you here?”

Xiao San scratched his head in embarrassment, “Sir Tian Dao said that some unidentified personnel had appeared in the Ghost Tomb Mountain Range so he told us to come check it out. We didn’t think it would be you guys. If they knew, they would be very happy.”

You XiaoMo continued, “Then go and report back to Tian Dao, after a few days we’ll go find them. Also, PiQiu and the others are still in the Weeping Ghost Shore, right?”

Xiao San knew that PiQiu was the boss’ wife’s contracted demon beast, so he nodded hurriedly in response, “Some of them, but some of them aren’t. If the boss really wants to see them, I can tell Sir Tian Dao to call them back.”

“No need to call them specifically. We’re going to be in the Ghost Tomb Mountain Range, so for the duration of our stay, we can see them at anytime.” You XiaoMo shook his head in rejection. If they were sent away by Tian Dao, then they must have stuff to do.
