Chapter 261 Time-travel
The Seven Ghostly Sisters had never met Master Six before. They immediately ducked behind me, immediately fearing him for what he was, an actual immortal whereas Xiao Qi and her sisters were mere ordinary ghosts sustained in human form through the use of magic. Master Six looked at Xiao Qi, his eye brows furrowing with interest. Then he looked as if he realized something as his head jerked sideways to face Father.
"Gods in Heaven, Murong Hai. Have you fallen so low?!" He glowered. Father only shrugged and muttered lackadaisically, "What is it to you? These girls met their deaths in the most pitiful way. Go below yourself and ask them. Do you think they are reserved any chance to reborn?" Master Six landed back in his sofa, seething beyond words yet he could find no valid reason to counter Father's.
As ghosts of people who died tragic deaths, Xiao Qi and her sisters should have been escorted to the City of Innocent Deaths in the Underworld where they would r

Our party of three young men and six female ghosts walked through the wormhole rimmed with sparkling lights that shone like diamonds. The familiar scene and sensation moved Lin Feng to tears. He wiped his wet eyes, gasping, "Oh, my God! I really thought we would be trapped forever in the past! I'm so relieved that we're back!"Recovering from the shock and consternation, we found ourselves in an empty stairwell. Lin Feng rubbed a hand on the steel railing and felt a hand emotionally on the wall peeling with paint. "It's true," his eyes were ringed scarlet and wet and he said, "We're really back! Steel railings and heating radiator, oh!" Lin Feng had always longed to return since we stepped into the past. We had spent such a long time there that we were beginning to forget how modern-day Wu Zhong looked like.I left Lin Feng to his histrionic revels about returning to the present and began looking around. It had been so long and we were losing touch with mod
Once Upon a Time Chapter 263 The Questioning
Chongxi scratched his nose. "How rough can these guys be?" He muttered, ending with a derisive chuckled that Zheng Shuang could only scowl in response.It was almost an hour later, when we were relating about our experiences in the past to Zheng Shuang over tea, when hurried footfalls began to resound from the corridors. Then came three rapid knocks on Zheng Shuang's door. Three intolerant and terse taps on the timber that portended our unfriendly guests. Zheng Shuang rose from his chair with a flustered but displeased look on his face, replying testily, "Come in."The door opened with a click and a mob of officers, all clad in the uniform of the department of internal affairs, flooded the room. The squad leader of the officers gave a perfunctory salute to Zheng Shuang before he cast a fierce look at us.The beer-bellied barrel of a man, who was clearly the leader of this team of officers, looked hardly young. With an acrimonious stare at us, h
Once Upon a Time Chapter 264 Back to the Center
"Of course, I understand! Perfectly, sir! I'd be bringing the boys there on the double!" Sergeant Zhan uttered apprehensively and he took a deep breath before he redirected his attention back to me. "Well, that was a call from the top..." He explained wearily, "The... the..." "What's going on, Sergeant Zhan?" I asked. I just had to, even though I know exactly what was going on.Beads of perspiration rolled anxiously down his face as he struggled to keep himself under control after listening to the unbelievable report from the District Headquarters. "The call came from HQ," he said again to me, "The victim has awakened suddenly from death. Everyone there now is either shocked or terrified." An amused smile broke across my face as I emitted an interested "Oh?" and the sergeant went on, "The victim has given a statement after he's woken up and what he said cleared you. You're free to go." He indicated a signal to the young police officer who promptly left with a nod. Then
Once Upon a Time Chapter 265 Help!
Lin Feng, Chongxi, and I shared a quick look. "It's been so long," Chongxi wondered and said aloud, "We won't know whether it's the same spot she had mentioned as we're going to. How about a look then?" Lin Feng nodded and said, "Might as well. Since we would be nearby anyway."Hearing this refilled Yuanyuan with excitement. She screamed to come along and so did Edelweiss and Xiao Yu. "I'm coming along too, since all of you would be going," Big Sister added. "Come on, all of you," I pointed out and said, "Look at the time. It's not that we're going now." Only then everyone realized that it was already six in the evening. The debacle at the police station had taken up so much time that we hardly had any drop of water the whole day.However, for Chongxi, something else came to mind: food. He jabbed a finger at the clock on the wall. "All right, enough talking. It's time for dinner! Let's settle that first! The food in ancient times is nowhere near as deliciou
Once Upon a Time Chapter 266 Na San, Again
At first, I could not recognize who the stranger was. It was only when my eyes fell upon that dirty and crumpled shirt that used to be mine, then I knew who he was: Na San!He looked just as soiled and haggard as a farmer, with that shirt of mine that looked as if it could do with a washing that it has been owed since I gave it to him last time we met. Nevertheless, Na San seemed to love it very much. Despite the many stain marks, there were two parts where he had patched it up meticulously. His hands caught some oil when he grabbed the chair and when he was about to just flippantly wipe his hands on his shirt, he paused, only to reach further down and wipe the oil of his pants instead.I was rather surprised at his unbidden arrival and he noticed my puzzled expression. With an abashed smile, he croaked sheepishly. "Urm... Greetings, Young Lordling." His voice was just as raspy as ever like a broken tin gong.Edelweiss and Lin Feng began to not
Once Upon a Time Chapter 267 Ins and Outs
With our persuasion, Na San wiped off his tears. Chongxi called for another round of a hundred barbecue skewers and we dug in again with Na San recounting to us the details."So a week ago, His Highness became worried sick when he heard that you were missing, Young Lordling. Thinking that you had been secretly abducted by the two other parties, he contacted one of them. I was not privy to their conversation and its contents, but the expression on His Highness' face after the conversation told me enough to know that things did not go well." Na San paused. "According to His Highness, Young Lordling, that person seems to be from Shanggu. A man called Jing, Jing Jiu."Chongxi stopped eating and thought aloud, "Jing Jiu? That's the same Jing as Jing Ke, the assassin, innit?" I nodded and breathed grimly. "Yishui Town of Shanggu... He could well be Jing Ke's descendant. Factor in that connection and the fact that they are after the Shiyan Blade, this could be ano
Once Upon a Time Chapter 268 Advice Over Drinks
"Prodigal son? What do you mean?" I asked the restaurateur who had aroused my interest to know more about our new friend. He cast a look at Zhang Er'ge and chuckled. "Best you ask him yourself," he muttered and he scrambled around the table, collecting all the mounds of bamboo sticks from our table before he left.It was time to delve more about our friend. By the sound of it, Zhang Er'ge's past did not seem disgraceful. "So, Zhang Er'ge. What did the proprietor mean by 'prodigal son'?" I asked and Zhang Mingwang giggled as a preoccupied finger caressed the scar on his arm. "It's all things of the past," he remarked dismissively and I decided to prod no further. But a voice came from another table, yelling, "Zhang Er'ge? You self-conscious clod! If you're reluctant to, then let me tell his story!"We twisted our heads back and saw three men grinning as they came to us. The man on the most left was the shortest with a height that almost matched Chongxi. The

Big Sister looked blankly at Mu, utterly lost for words as to how she should respond to the question. But she was hardly the only one speechless; around the table, Lin Feng, Chongxi, as well as the others, were all equally speechless.Mu inhaled his cigarette so quickly that it was burnt right down to the stub in just seconds. He was just crushing it when Big Sister finally shook her head in dismay. She had no idea how to answer his question. Mu chuckled and nipped at his Coke. "There's no need to feel troubled," he said, "You're not the only one. It's normal. Nobody has the right answer to this question. There is no such thing as fully differentiating good from evil, for there is no such thing as being absolutely good or infinitely evil. No clear line that borders good and bad. The definition of good and evil is subjective, they are just matters of perspective and angle."Big Sister took in a long, deep breath, finally understanding Mu's words. "That's Mu
