This time when Fang Cheng came to the Iron Cast Palace, not to mention Gui Yunji, not even Yueguang Xingxi came out to greet her.
It wasn't that they didn't pay attention, but that Fang Cheng came too quickly.
In less than half an hour, we crossed Hokkaido and rushed from the Machinery City to the Iron Casting Palace.
Due to altitude issues, the Oni soldiers on duty below didn't even notice the plane entering the airspace of Ibuki Castle.
The last time he came here, he was riding only a giant eagle, which was at a low altitude. The monsters did not expect that his mount would be updated so quickly, evolving from animal power to supersonic aircraft.
It wasn't until he landed in the iron palace that the monsters noticed it.
Gui Yunji immediately came out to greet him with Yueguang Xingxi.
"Long time no see, Cheng!"
Gui Yunji strode up with a surprised smile and gave Fang Cheng a heavy hug.
I don’t know if it’s intentional or unintentional, it just looks like a facial cleanser.
Although it was very comfortable, it was still a bit embarrassing to be watched by so many people. Fang Cheng reluctantly gave up the facial cleanser and raised his body to the same height as Oni Yunji.
Now I can finally have a perfect hug with her.
But Oni Yunji is very strong, so the facial cleanser becomes a meat and egg impact.
Fang Cheng could clearly feel that she was wearing nothing underneath.
Did he take it off on purpose when he ran out just now?
"Welcome back!"
Oniyunji hugged Fang Cheng for more than ten seconds before letting go of Fang Cheng. She turned to Umitsu Kaori and said, "Sister Kaori, does the future not matter?"
She didn't expect that Uguang Kaori would abandon Uguang Mirai and rush back to the Iron Palace.
Umitsu Kaori bowed slightly: "The future is safe in Machinery City. I have rested for too long. It is time to come back to work."
Oniunji showed a pleased smile. The competition for the Lord of Ten Thousand Demons was about to begin. Umitsu Kaori's return at this time proved that the interests of the Iron Palace were above all else in her heart.
This is something any ruler would be happy to see.
Fang Cheng's eyes fell on Yueguang Xingxi behind Gui Yunji, and he smiled and opened his hands towards her: "Madam boss, we haven't seen you for so long, why don't you give her a hug to celebrate?"
Yueguang Xingxi did not come up, but opened her small fan and looked back and forth at Fang Cheng and Uguang Kaori.
She smiled and said: "Should I call you Fang Cheng now? Or should I call you brother-in-law?"
"Forehead……"
"Stop talking nonsense!"
Umitsu Kaori quickly stopped her sister.
Yueguang Xingxi covered half of her face with a fan, revealing only a pair of charming eyes that narrowed into crescent moons: "Oh, I was just joking. You are so anxious. Could it be that you have been fooled?"
Oniunji was also looking at Fang Cheng and Umitsu Kaori with suspicious eyes.
Umitsu Kaori stayed in the Machinery City for almost three months, while Fang Cheng only spent two months in North America, and they lived together for the next month.
Maybe something really happened between the two of them.
Oni Yunji was happy to see this. After Fang Cheng defeated Isis, the most important policy of the Iron Cast Palace was to tightly surround this ally.
Especially during this period when the competition for the Lord of Demons is about to begin.
Umitsu Kaori did not defend herself, but said with a cold face: "Umitsu Kana, you are itchy again, right?"
If Oni Yunji hadn't been here, she would have taught this little sister who deserved a beating.
Yueguang Xingxi was not afraid, and was about to continue teasing her sister, but Fang Cheng persuaded her: "Madam boss, stop teasing your sister."
He had to endure the cold war between Kanzaki Rin and Asaka Aki every day in the Machinery City, but he didn't want to have to endure the mutual hostility between the two sisters when he came to the Iron Cast Palace.
Yueguang Xingxi was a little surprised. When she flirted with her sister in the past, Fang Cheng would never persuade her.
She asked strangely: "You really don't want to be my brother-in-law, do you?"
Fang Cheng said seriously: "Whether I really become your brother-in-law or not, if you don't like it, you don't have to call me that."
This was simply a vague admission of some special relationship between him and Umitsu Kaori.
Umitsu Kaori felt the half-smiling gaze of Oniunji, and her whole body suddenly felt hot, and she wanted to find a crack in the ground to crawl in.
After all, she had just retorted to her sister in a stern tone.
Yueguang Xingxi gave a deep oh, and the other party said sincerely: "Then how should I call you?"
Fang Cheng smiled and said, "Just call me dad."
Yueguang Xingxi: "..."
Seeing that her subordinate was embarrassed, Gui Yunji laughed shamelessly, and then said sincerely: "Go in, don't stand outside."
They were supposed to prepare a banquet to wash away the dust, but Fang Cheng arrived in such a hurry that he hadn't started preparing anything yet.
But Fang Cheng didn't come all the way to have a meal. He said to Gui Yunji, who was about to reminisce with him, "Let's go take a look at the crime scene first."
The ghost master's tomb is next to Tennoko at the top of Sounkyo Gorge, where only royal monsters can go up.
However, Oni Yunji is not a follower of the rules. Now that she is the one who is rude, she will naturally allow the fox sisters to follow last time.
After all, in order to deal with the Ghost Rakshasa, Fang Cheng, an outsider, had already been involved, and the rules were broken only zero and countless times.
The four of them quickly climbed up the long stairs and arrived at the Lake of Heaven.
The lake in the sky is as clear as water, the lake water reflects the sky, and they are almost indistinguishable from each other in the distance.
During the last battle with the Ghost Rakshasa, the destroyed lakeshore had been restored to its original state, with vegetation replanted, and no trace of damage could be seen.
When the fox sisters came up for the first time, they couldn't help but marvel at the beauty of the scenery here.
But Fang Cheng thought that the lake here was so clear, it would be great to go swimming with the girls someday.
It would be even better if you were swimming naked.
"No one has ever gone swimming in Tianzhi Lake."
Oni Yunji, who was standing nearby, suddenly whispered such a sentence, then turned to Fang Cheng and said: "But no one prohibits it, are you interested?"
Fang Cheng nodded: "I have a great sexual interest."
The two looked at each other and smiled.
After looking at the scenery, Gui Yunji took the three of them to a forest on the shore and saw the ghost master's grave.
The tomb is simple, with only a tombstone carved by Oni Yunji herself, and a grave bag behind it.
The grave mound seemed to have cracked open after an earthquake, forming a wavy gap, revealing the coffin underneath.
The coffin had been damaged and the body inside was missing.
Gui Yunji explained to Fang Cheng: "I go to Tianzhi Lake every once in a while and visit my father's tomb. I just discovered something was wrong with the tomb yesterday, but I don't know exactly when it happened. .”
She had checked her surroundings thoroughly and found no footprints.
The mound of the tomb showed no traces of excavation. It seemed that it had cracked naturally and only the coffin inside was damaged.
This is not something ordinary people can do, and ordinary people will not sneak into the core area of the Iron Palace to rob tombs.
After listening to Gui Yunji's story, Fang Cheng pondered for a while: "Did your father fake the corpse himself?"
Umitsu Kaori and Tsukiko Hoshiki both had black lines on their heads, but they didn't express any opinions about it.
If the ghost master really cheats, what will happen to the throne of the Iron Palace?
Oni Yunji was very calm: "I don't deny this possibility, but you can see that this coffin was damaged from the outside to the inside, which proves that someone broke the coffin from the outside."
So someone must have stolen the body. Fang Cheng pondered, "Will eating your father's body have aphrodisiac effects?"
Gui Yunji: "..."
Fox sisters: "..."
Fang Cheng also felt that this possibility was low, so he changed the question: "You didn't get any valuable burial objects for your father, did you?"
"I have this plan, but at least I have to wait until my father is reburied before placing any funeral objects."
Gui Yunji said helplessly: "Even if someone comes to rob the tomb, they can't just steal my father's body, right?"
Not many people know about the ghost master's death. Even if many monsters in the Iron Cast Palace have guessed it, they can't be sure.
What's more, only Oni Yunji knows the burial location. She can't come to rob the tomb when she is sleepwalking.
Fang Cheng is at a loss. He is not a primary school student of Death, and he is not good at decrypting and solving cases.
"Could it be Shuten Douji?"
"If it's him, it's very possible, and I doubt it too."
The person with the greatest suspicion in Oniunji's mind is the missing Shuten Doji.
"I don't know what he is going to do after stealing my father's body. It is not a good thing for the Iron Palace. I have asked people to be on guard, but now no one in the entire Ibuki City is his opponent..."
Fang Cheng heard the subtext of Gui Yunji and said simply: "Then it seems I have to stay here for a few more days?"
The corners of Gui Yunji's lips curled up slightly: "This is your home, you can stay here as long as you want."
She asked Fang Cheng to come back, not expecting Fang Cheng to solve the case, but to ask him to come back to deter potential enemies.
The high-end military force of the Iron Palace has not yet been restored. No one can beat Shuten Doji, so they can only rely on Fang Cheng.
After knowing each other for so long, she had a thorough grasp of Fang Cheng's character and knew that he was not keen on power, but rather a very emotional person.
Don’t worry about being ignored or turned into a puppet after relying too much.
Now that he knew that Gui Yunji called him back to act as a thigh, Fang Cheng had no interest in staying here to solve the case.
The four of them left Tianzhi Lake and returned to the Iron Cast Palace. Fang Cheng said to Guiyun Ji, "Call all the guards and maids in the Iron Cast Palace."
Gui Yunji reacted: "Do you suspect there is a mole here?"
Fang Cheng shook his head and said, "I'm not sure, but you won't get pregnant if you give it a try."
So thousands of guards and nearly a hundred maids in the Iron Palace were called over, and the leader was Fang Cheng's old acquaintance - Jinjiu Eyi.
Tsujiu Eyi was originally just Oniyunji's bodyguard, and had fights with Fang Cheng several times.
After Oni Yunji ascended the throne, he also rose to the top and is now the commander of the bodyguards.
He happily greeted Fang Cheng: "Master Fang, long time no see."
Fang Cheng exchanged a few words with him, and then asked the guards and maids to come up one after another to touch his head and read his mind.
With Gui Yunji standing by and being shocked, these people didn't dare to have any objections at all and walked up to him honestly.
Reading thoughts is now a LV3 ability, and it takes Fang Cheng less than a second to read a thought memory.
Moreover, the lives of these guards are very simple and boring, making it very easy to read.
Oni Yunji and the fox sisters had no objections to this, even though they both felt that Fang Cheng would return without success.
These guards and maids all need to be of clean family background and must be selected through layers of selection. They have already worked in the Iron Palace and have won the trust of two generations of ghost masters...
"Um?"
Fang Cheng looked at the ghost guard shivering in front of him and said with a smile, "I saw a familiar face in your memory."
Gui Yunji: "..."
