Meet the Gentleman

Chapter 789: Before the Dead
On the hill of homesickness.

The water curtain is like a waterfall, cascading layer upon layer, extremely spectacular.

Ah Heng stood on the Wangxiang Terrace, sadly recalling the black pottery flowerpot he had once touched.

Feng Qingyan was shocked. The black pottery flowerpot that Ah Heng mentioned, isn’t this the reincarnation evolution basin?
But how did the Basin of Reincarnation and Evolution end up in the hands of the Emperor?
Shouldn't it be in his hands?

"You mean, you came to my world after you touched that flowerpot?" Feng Qingyan asked after a moment of hesitation.

"I do not know."

Ah Heng shook his head and said softly, "Maybe, maybe not. It's just a rather strange flower pot."

“A rather strange flower pot?”

Feng Qingyan was speechless.

Is the Reincarnation Evolution Pot just a rather strange flower pot?
How many supreme beings have died or had their fates determined because of touching the basin of reincarnation and evolution?

"Is not it?"

Ah Heng said, then frowned, and suddenly thought of something and said, "Red spider lily? The flower planted in the flowerpot is red spider lily? But at that time, I didn't know it was red spider lily, I just thought it was very bright red."

"If it is really the red spider lily, then..."

At this moment she was looking at Feng Qingyan.

"Ah Heng, I am now basically certain that you came to my world because you touched the flower pot."

Feng Qingyan thought about it and said.

"So, is there any way to leave?"

Ah Heng asked quickly, she really wanted to go back.

"Yes, it is to let the underworld descend upon the heavens."

Feng Qingyan Road.

"Let the underworld descend upon the heavens?"

Ah Heng was stunned for a moment, and asked with some doubt in anticipation: "When will the underworld descend upon the heavens? When the underworld descends upon the heavens, can I go back?"

"Ah."

Feng Qingyan nodded and said, "Rather than saying that the underworld has descended upon the heavens, it is better to say that the City God Palace has descended upon the heavens. In fact, the underworld is still only in the netherworld and will not descend upon the heavens in the living world. What descends upon the heavens in the living world are only the various City God Palaces in the underworld..."

"I understand."

Ah Heng said.

"What do you think, Ah Heng?"

Feng Qingyan asked.

“If the City God’s Palace can really descend to the heavens, I, Yan Subai, will be the vanguard of the underworld.” Ah Heng said after a moment of silence, his sad and weak eyes gradually becoming firm.

"Welcome."

Feng Qingyan smiled.

"Canonization, but I have never been a City God, I don't know if I can do it." Ah Heng frowned, looking a little worried.

"Don't worry, take your time. If you don't understand, you can learn." Feng Qingyan smiled, feeling quite good. "Who in this world is born to be a city god?"

"When will the canonization preparations come to the heavens?"

Ah Heng asked after a moment of hesitation.

“Unknown at this time.”

Feng Qingyan frowned and thought for a moment, then said, "Before I descend to the heavens, my underworld needs to do one more thing. Only after I do this, will I have a chance to descend to the heavens of the living."

"What is it? Is it difficult?"

Ah Heng asked curiously.

"Maybe it's difficult, maybe it's not. I can't make an accurate judgment before I do it." Feng Qingyan sighed, "What we have to do now is to perfect the underworld and then descend to the world of the dead..."

"Descend into the world of the dead? What is the world of the dead?"

Ah Heng was a little confused.

She had been in Feng Qingyan's world for tens of millions of years, but had never heard of the world of the dead.

Where did this world of the dead come from?
"You can think of it as the underworld." Feng Qingyan said, and then he looked towards the sky of the underworld, as if he was looking at the world of the dead. "My underworld can only descend into the world of the dead, establish itself in the world of the dead, rule the world of the dead, and control the world of the dead before we can descend into the heavens of the living."

"So, there will be a fierce battle? Or even..."

Ah Heng said.

"Maybe there will be, maybe not."

Feng Qingyan hesitated for a moment, then said firmly, "But no matter what, my underworld must completely control the world of the dead."

“Whether the world of the dead is empty or filled with powerful forces, my underworld must be prepared to descend upon the world of the dead with the strongest force.”

"If it weren't for this..."

Feng Qingyan shook his head.

Therefore, he must descend into the world of the dead with the strongest power, so strong that the world of the dead cannot react. If the world of the dead reacts, the one who dies may be him, or the underworld...

This is why the reincarnation evolution was successful but did not descend into the world of the dead.

First, the underworld is not perfect.

Second, the power of the underworld is not strong enough...

Moreover, he didn't know that the world of the dead was strong, so he could only make himself reach the strongest state.

The time of the underworld’s arrival can be delayed, but the underworld must never be defeated.

If you lose.

Everything disappeared.

"So, the underworld only has one chance to descend into the world of the dead?" Ah Heng frowned and said, "We can only succeed, and we cannot fail?! If we fail, then..."

Feng Qingyan did not respond.

"I understand."

Ah Heng said.

"Every City God's Mansion in the underworld has extraordinary significance. I hope Ah Heng can lend me a helping hand."

Feng Qingyan bowed.

"You're welcome to canonize me. This is what Xiaobai should do."

Ah Heng quickly returned the gift.

At this moment, Feng Qingyan stepped into the air, walked along the Wangchuan River, and came to the Sea of ​​Bitterness.

“Is this the Sea of ​​Bitterness?”

Ah Heng looked at the bitter sea with a curious look, so she flew forward to see the other side of the bitter sea. Unfortunately, she did not see the other side, but only the boundless bitter sea, so she said: "It is indeed the bitter sea with no end."

"Whether the sea of ​​suffering has boundaries or no boundaries is a relative term." Feng Qingyan said, "For billions of living beings in the heavens, the sea of ​​suffering is indeed boundless and it is impossible to cross it to the end. However, for a very small number of living beings, they can cross the sea of ​​suffering in one step, gain great liberation, and achieve great success..."

"How many people in this world can achieve great liberation?"

Ah Heng shook his head.

"I don't know, but as time goes by, there will always be..."

Feng Qingyan Road.

"Can I cross the sea of ​​suffering, can I be blessed?"

Ah Heng said.

"Ah Heng, don't try. If you can't get through the sea of ​​suffering, you will only fall into it, and perhaps you will never be free."

Feng Qingyan looked at Ah Heng and said.

Ah Heng was so determined to go home, and had strong concerns in his heart, that there was no chance at all.

There was some disbelief in Ah Heng's eyes. After all, she was still very confident in her own abilities.

but.

Crossing the sea of ​​suffering is not a question of strength.

At this moment, even the supreme being in the heavens cannot cross the sea of ​​suffering, so how can Ah Heng do it?
"I really can't make it through?"

Ah Heng asked.

"You have a strong pull in your heart. If you can't do this, you will only fall into a sea of ​​suffering, and the suffering in your heart will become more and more bitter."

Feng Qingyan Road.

"So, only by having no desires and no demands can one survive the sea of ​​suffering?"

Ah Heng asked with some doubt.

“Since you have no desires, why do you need to cross the sea of ​​suffering?” Feng Qingyan smiled, “Even if you really have no desires, you may not be able to cross the sea of ​​suffering…”

Ah Heng frowned, still feeling somewhat unwilling.

but.

Since Feng Shengdu said so, she didn't dare to try it rashly, for fear of falling into the sea of ​​suffering.

At this time, her eyes fell on the Huangquan military camp. Seeing the Yin soldiers in the camp were training hard with murderous intent, she asked, "Feng Sheng, are these Yin soldiers preparing to descend into the world of the dead?"

Feng Qingyan nodded and said, "However, when the underworld descends upon the dead, it cannot rely solely on the ghost soldiers, but also on the various city god palaces..."

"If the various city god palaces are not perfect, it may lead to the collapse of the underworld."

"so serious?"

"Very serious." A moment later, Feng Qingyan brought Ah Heng to Fengdu City...

"Is this a public carriage?"

Ah Heng was stunned for a moment, then he came to the front of the public carriage in surprise and looked at it curiously. Then, like a curious kitten, he ran around and looked around Fengdu City.

Everything in Fengdu City.

To her, everything is very new and fun.

After two or three hours, Ah Heng's curiosity finally subsided and he stopped running and jumping.

After a moment, Feng Qingyan took her to the Ten Palaces of Yama.

"Horse-faced?!"

When Ah Heng walked onto the Hundred Ghosts Bridge, he pointed at the Horse-Faced Guardian guarding the Nine Nether Ghost River and exclaimed, "Feng Sheng, is it the Horse-Faced Guardian?"

Feng Qingyan was speechless.

Ah Heng, even if you don't think of yourself as the City God of a city, you are at least the mysterious Goddess of Wushan in the hearts of the people.

Don't make such a fuss.

"Excuse me, are you a horse-faced man?"

Ah Heng ran to Horse-Faced Master agitatedly, raised his head and asked him.

The Horse-Faced Guard looked at Ah Heng, then at Feng Qingyan. Where did this yellow-haired girl come from? But since she was brought by the mansion lord himself, he had to give her some respect, so he said, "I am the Horse-Faced Guard. May I ask who you are?"

"My name is Yan...you should just call me Ah Heng."

Ah Heng hesitated and said.

"Master Ah Heng?"

At this moment, Ma Mian's eyes widened, his face full of disappointment. How could this be Ah Heng?
Is Ah Heng like this?
Horse-Faced Guardian widened his eyes and looked at Ah Heng carefully. It seemed that Ah Heng was indeed like this. But when did Lady Ah Heng act like a little girl?
"Why, do you know me?"

Ah Heng was a little surprised.

"Ah Heng, the Horse-Faced Guard is the Soul-Chasing Marquis..."

Feng Qingyan was speechless.

"what?"

Ah Heng was stunned for a moment, then looked at the horse-faced man carefully, then nodded and said, "Now it does look a bit like the Soul-Chasing Marquis."

"Master Ah Heng, I am the Soul Chaser."

Horse-Faced Guard said helplessly.

“Soul-Chasing Marquis, you have changed so much that even your aura has changed.” Ah Heng shook his head. He did not recognize him as the Soul-Chasing Marquis. “No, you should be called Horse-Faced Marquis now…”

"Master, how come Lord Ah Heng..."

At this moment, Ma Mian was a little confused.

Logically speaking, living people cannot enter the underworld. Although Ah Heng cannot be considered a human, but...

"Ah Heng is now the City God of Wushan Prefecture."

Feng Qingyan Road.

"what--"

The Horse-Faced Guard was somewhat surprised, and said, "Congratulations, Master Heng."

Ah Heng waved his hands, feeling quite happy. After all, the legendary Horse-Faced Demon was once his subordinate.

This also means there are people in the underworld.

"Canonized, where is Niutou?" Ah Heng looked around and said, "After all, in my previous life, Niutou and Mamian were a pair."

"The bull's head hasn't returned yet."

Feng Qingyan said, and walked towards the Ten Halls of Yama, but he just stood outside and did not go in.

"Is this the Ten Palaces of Yama?"

Ah Heng looked up at the legendary Ten Palaces of Yama as if he were on a pilgrimage, and saw that the Ten Palaces of Yama were as majestic as mountains.

There is an indescribable shock.

"Perhaps in the near future, Ah Heng will be able to enter the palace, or even become the master of a palace."

Feng Qingyan smiled.

"Thank you for your kind words."

Ah Heng said.

A moment later, Feng Qingyan brought Ah Heng to the Cliff of Resurrection.

“This place is spectacular and soul-stirring.”

Ah Heng exclaimed.

As Feng Qingyan walked to the end of the Cliff of Resurrection, he looked down and saw only endless fog and strange lights flashing in the fog.

"Below is the Samsara Pond. All the dead souls are reincarnated through the Samsara Pond."

Feng Qingyan Road.

"For countless years, only one person can be canonized as a saint, and then the reincarnation can be evolved..."

Ah Heng was filled with emotion.

Feng Qingyan just smiled, pointed to the left side of the Samsara Pond, and said, "Have you seen the red spider lily?"

"I vaguely saw it."

Ah Heng said.

"That is the other shore."

Feng Qingyan Road.

"Is that the other shore?"

Ah Heng was stunned for a moment, then looked at the other side seriously. Beyond the other side was indeed a sea of ​​suffering, and the sea of ​​suffering indeed had no end.

But the other side.

Why is it so close to the Samsara Pond?
After a moment, she understood vaguely and said, "So, this is the other shore. Now, I understand a little bit why reaching the other shore can bring great liberation and great achievement..."

"Ah Heng, do you want to continue watching?"

Feng Qingyan Road.

"I've seen enough. No need to read on." Ah Heng came back to his senses and said, "Alas, after reading it, the sense of mystery I had about the underworld has disappeared little by little."

“Because we don’t know, it’s mysterious.”

Feng Qingyan Road.

Ah Heng nodded, then looked at Feng Qingyan and said, "Feng Sheng, although I am willing to be the City God of Wushan Prefecture, I don't have a single soldier under my command..."

"I will dispatch a group of ghost soldiers and ghost gods to the Wushan City God's Mansion to obey orders."

Feng Qingyan Road.

"Oh, is it so?"

Ah Heng nodded, still looking at Feng Qingyan, as if he wanted to say something but hesitated.

"Tell me, what else do you want?"

Feng Qingyan Road.

"Actually, I want to borrow the Horse-Faced Mask first. After all, I don't have any soldiers under my command..."

Ah Heng said.

"That's fine, but it can only be a temporary secondment."

Feng Qingyan thought for a moment and said.

Anyway, Horse-Faced Guard is guarding the bridge now, so it would be better to let Ah Heng lead the way first.

"Thank you for the canonization."

Ah Heng said.

"You're welcome. If you manage the Wushan City God's Mansion well, that would be the greatest help to me." Feng Qingyan said, and then he ordered the Qingshan City God's Mansion to dispatch a group of ghost soldiers and ghost gods to the Wushan City God's Mansion to obey his orders.

And Ah Heng left the underworld with Horse-Faced Demon.

"Horse-faced man, do you feel wronged to obey my orders?"

Ah Heng said as he walked.

"How could it be? It is Horse-Faced Guard's blessing to be able to obey orders from Lord Aheng." Horse-Faced Guard said somewhat unwillingly.

"is it?"

Ah Heng smiled, walked out of the gates of hell and returned to the City God's Mansion in Wushan.

However, she didn't know how to manage the City God's Mansion, so she planned to visit other City God's Mansions to learn...

After Ah Heng took over Wushan City God's Mansion.

Feng Qingyan was thinking about establishing the fifth city god's palace, but how should he establish the city god's palace in Kumodian and the unknown martial world?

This is a difficult question.
