Detective Ghost Empress

Chapter 465: The ghosts’ help

----------------

" I don't know why but it looks like the ghosts who follow her majesty, hate me," Yu Lingyun muttered as he shook his head despondently. Every time those ghosts came near him, they would tease or scare him and in case the situation was to escalate, he would find himself making a joke out of himself.

" I understand what you are feeling, Lingyun but ..." Zhai Heng looked at the big octopus which was sticking close to him with all of his limbs wrapped around his waist and neck before asking, " When are you going to go down? If we are seen by someone then it would be troublesome."

" Hah, you want me to go down? Now? When we are surrounded by ghosts? I didn't think you were such a man, Ah Heng," though he said that Yu Lingyun made no effort to undo his limbs which he had wrapped around Zhai Heng.

Zhai Heng sighed, he was not surprised to see that Yu Lingyun was acting like such, with a frustrated sigh he turned to the air which was slightly colder than it was before and then bowed his head before he requested,

" His Majesty wants to save Official Qin but for that, we would need your help, please help us by knocking the guards out, that way we will be able to help Official Qin escape."

Though Official Qin was a killer as well, he was also a victim which was why Zhai Tianyu came up with another punishment which was more worthy of someone like Official Qin.

Though Zhai Heng felt weird after speaking to nothing but air he still waited for a response and it was after a very long pause when someone wrote on the ground.

" Just that? We can do better."

" S...Someo....someone is writing—— Heng, look at that——" Yu Lingyun shrieked in Zhai Heng's ear as if the latter couldn't hear what he was saying or as if he couldn't see what was happening right in front of him.

He looked down at Yu Lingyun who smiled and then cheekily said, " Ooops,"

"Oops? You bastard! "

Whack!

The sound of something hitting a hard surface echoed in the surrounding which scared the birds and the bugs which were hiding in the trees and the grass but fortunately, the guards who were stationed outside the prison along with the shadow guards were all standing in a trance as if they couldn't see or hear anything.

When Zhai Heng and Yu Lingyun saw this, they instantly knew that it was the work of those ghosts who came to help them. No wonder they said that they could do better it was because they could indeed do better!

If all the shadow guards and the guards stationed around the prison were in a trance then no one would be able to catch them and more importantly, they will also not be able to put the blame on anyone's head since they were wide awake all night!

" These ghosts...they are really amazing aren't they?" Yu Lingyun looked at the prison which was covered in a hazy mist which was visible to the naked eye. He turned to look at Zhai Heng and then said," Hey you know..."

" Don't say it," Zhai Heng knew what Yu Lingyun was going to say which was why he immediately stopped the latter causing Yu Lingyun to furrow his brows as he still insistently said, " But if they are with us——"

" I am afraid that her majesty will agree to let you use her ghosts to conquer countries, Lingyun. So stop thinking about it and forget what you even saw," Zhai Heng was long aware of how terrifying the power which Liu Hui Ying held in her hands but now that he was seeing a small glimpse of it, he understood what the wise man meant by when they said—— with great power comes great responsibility.

However, even though he was tempted he did not let himself lose his head as he turned to look at Yu Lingyun and said, "Let's go, we have a lot to do."
