Chapter 232 - 231: Pulling the Wool Over the New Ghost King’s Eyes
Upon hearing the Eastern Ghost King’s words, Qin Liuxi’s face also took on an unpleasant shade, her mood worsened as she recalled the divination just now.
The Eastern Ghost King, having apparently offended her, dared not even breathe loudly upon seeing her cold and stern expression.
"Have you found Zhou Le’s soul? What about in the Underworld?" Qin Liuxi asked.
The Eastern Ghost King spoke, "We have each searched, but found nothing. The Ghost Messengers haven’t seen him reporting to the Underworld either."
So that means Zhou Le has either been utterly destroyed or entirely devoured.
"You cast a divination." Qin Liuxi commanded.
Understandably, the Eastern Ghost King placed a ruby necklace on the small table, "Looking for a person, oh, searching for a ghost?"
Qin Liuxi shot him a look, set the necklace aside, picked up three Copper Coins, shook and tossed them with both hands, repeating this thrice, then recorded the hexagram on paper to deduce its meaning. After a while, she furrowed her brow and said, "It is the ’Kan is Water’ hexagram, an ominous sign."
’Kan is Water’ signifies hardship, peril, and downfall. The water hexagram is water upon water, flooding Sifang with calamitous omens and insurmountable difficulties, suggesting a journey of no return.
