Chapter 472: Return to Jiang City
After disposing of the female ghost, Chen Fan turned his head to look at Lin Zhendong standing beside him. Seeing his incredulous expression, he called out, "Leader Lin."
Lin Zhendong showed no reaction; his eyes remained fixedly staring at the demon core on the table.
Chen Fan waved his hand in front of his eyes and called out again, "Leader Lin?"
Only then did Lin Zhendong come to his senses, turned his head to look at Chen Fan, and asked, "The Goddess... she’s just gone?"
With a smile, Chen Fan said, "She was no goddess, just a wild ghost clinging desperately to the power within that demon core of yours to eke out an existence. Leader Lin, the way you’re lost in thought, could it be that you miss the taste of that female ghost?"
Lin Zhendong’s face turned red, and he quickly said, "How... How could that be possible, don’t talk nonsense here. I never tasted what she was like; how could I miss it!"
Chen Fan chuckled playfully, but didn’t tease him further. After all, Lin Zhendong was getting on in years, and Chen Fan still needed to give him some respect.
However, the female ghost did remind him of Tong. Compared to this ghost, Tong was much kinder and gentler. He wondered where she had been reborn, and if he counted the time, she should now be a child of one or two years old.
Without dwelling on it, Chen Fan went over to pick up the demon core. Instantly, he felt an overwhelming power surging within it, and he heard the howls of a Jiao Dragon.
"If I’m not wrong, this should be the inner core of that White Flood Dragon. The visions I saw earlier were the scenes it witnessed before dying. This indicates that the great battle must have truly taken place on Earth during Ancient Times. Otherwise, this core wouldn’t have appeared here. One wonders what exactly happened back then to trigger such a catastrophic war."
