Chapter 239: The Underworld, Fengdu, and Mount Tai

"Yu Fengxian is such an evil star. It's only been a few days and she killed another goblin, but he died with his soul scattered all over the place!"

After Xiaoyu killed the tiger demon's soul, the Black and White Impermanence, who had picked up the "soul residue" of Chi Lingzi outside Luojia Village, emerged from the ground again and appeared directly in the main hall. They were right in front of Xiaoyu, pointing fingers at her unscrupulously.

At that time, Xiaoyu was sitting cross-legged on a cushion with his eyes slightly closed.

The Qiao Shi Sword shed its fierce tiger deity and turned back into an iron sword, lying horizontally on the floor tiles in front of her.

This time, Xiaoyu still failed to detect the two Fengdu Wuchang.

But the jade bell around her waist suddenly started to jingle.

A wisp of black air floated out of the dog treasure, drilled out of the bell, and drilled into Xiaoyu's ears, screaming: "Master, ghosts and gods have entered the hall. I can't see them, but I can smell their scent. They are so powerful and scary. You have to be careful!"

It’s Xiaoqiang, it’s in the dog treasure.

Last night it was also hiding in the dog treasure, and suddenly jumped out and bit Tiger Vanguard's head, creating an opportunity for the "dog treasure version of Fantian Seal" to hit people.

Although its soul was destroyed by Tiger Vanguard, it had already mastered the "1.0 Version of Dog Treasure Refining Method" and had sacrificed the Dog Treasure to refine it into its own demonic body. It would not perish until the Dog Treasure was shattered.

Moreover, Xiaoyu used the "Skeleton Monster" method taught by Chi Lingzi to train Xiaoqiang's skeleton into an "endoskeletal armor" to support its ghost body again, making the ghost dog's bite force dozens of times stronger than when it was alive.

That's why it was able to bite through the tiger demon's flesh with one bite, making him howl in pain.

After being beaten by the tiger demon, the negative energy that exploded from the ghost dog's soul was all absorbed by Gou Bao, and Xiao Qiang's "ghost body" was instantly re-condensed.

He's just a little weak and needs to rest for a while before he can fight again.

It can't turn into a ghost and jump out to bite people, but it can help Xiaoyu watch the door - be alert to the surroundings.

Xiao Yu opened her eyes and shouted, "Who are you, wild ghost, to dare to spy on me?"

"Om~~~"

The Qiao Shi sword suddenly jumped up, landed in her palm, and quickly swung the sword forward.

The golden-red pure yang sword energy blossomed into lotus flowers.

Lotus flowers were suspended in the air, scattered in an orderly manner up and down, there were hundreds of them.

For a moment, the empty main room seemed to have become a lotus pond.

The scene of the lotus pond was also projected deep into Xiaoyu's heart. Any fluctuations in the lotus pond could cause ripples in his heart.

This move is called "Green Lotus Sword - Lotus Pond at Night", which she learned from the sound of Shaoyao's piano.

Although Shaoyao is just a mortal, the sound of the piano can create a very infectious artistic conception and enter a dimension beyond "humanity".

For example, Ghost Way and Shinto Way.

When Shaoyao plays the piano in the human world, the ghosts in the ghost world and the gods in the Shinto world will be infected by the sound of the piano.

The artistic conception of the piano sound transcends dimensions and penetrates into higher dimensions.

Since the sound of the piano can spread to a deeper dimension through artistic conception, what about sword dance?

Therefore, Xiaoyu did not use the professional ghost-slaying skill "Tiger Soul Seven Kills" at this time.

To kill the enemy, you must first find him and be able to reach him.

The artistic conception of flowers is not very effective in killing enemies, but like the sound of a piano, it can easily infect people.

As expected, even the two impermanences deep in the ghost world could feel a sense of tranquility and leisure.

"Oh, Yu Fengxian is so cunning. She couldn't find us, so she just spread the sword intent. Once we see and feel this lotus sword intent, it is equivalent to falling into the lotus field realm. I'm afraid she has discovered us."

Bai Wuchang wanted to retreat, but was surprised to find that the "ghost road" around him was actually rippling with transparent ripples.

He seemed to have fallen into a lotus pond. When a person moves in a pond, ripples will inevitably be created on the surface of the lake.

This is also because his realm is high enough, otherwise he would not be able to "see" (feel with his mind) the ripples at all.

The ripples are not real waves on the lake, but fluctuations in the artistic conception of the flowers.

Of course, if the two Wuchang are not at a high enough level, they can’t come and go without a trace in front of Xiaoyu.

"With her level of skill, she shouldn't be able to detect us."

Hei Wuchang took two steps back, his eyes fixed on the jade bone bell around Xiaoyu's waist.

It was still beating gently.

"So that's it! There is a demon hidden in the bell. It's a dog. The dog has a very sensitive nose and can smell us." Hei Wuchang seemed to realize something.

"I've seen you, come out!" Xiaoyu shouted.

The Black and White Impermanence looked at each other, both hesitant.

If you run away immediately after being seen, you will be suspected of running away, which is so embarrassing!
But if it was tricked out by a mortal, it would be equally shameful.

Hei Wuchang spoke first, "Brother, I think she is bluffing."

Bai Wuchang looked hesitant and said, "We have fallen into her sword state and caused 'ripples in the lake'. I'm afraid she will find us."

"She only knows our existence, but not our location—"

As soon as Hei Wuchang finished speaking, Xiao Yu swung his sword again, and lotus flowers condensed from pure yang sword energy flew towards them and surrounded them in the center.

"Hey, she actually found us."

Hei Wuchang was a little embarrassed, but he no longer hid and appeared openly in the "lower level ghost path" in front of Xiaoyu.

"Are you the Black and White Impermanence?" Xiao Yu looked at them and asked in surprise.

"Yu Fengxian, my brother is the soul catcher of the underworld. You are a living person, but you must meet the soul catcher. Do you want to report to the underworld immediately?" Hei Wuchang shouted.

Xiaoyu adjusted her hair, sleeves and skirt, and bowed to the two impermanences respectfully but gracefully.

"The Great Qin Emperor, Yu Fengxian, is here to meet the two soul-collecting masters."

"This girl is quite interesting. When she saw the soul catcher coming to find her, she didn't get scared or cry for help. Instead, she was calm and composed, and behaved in a graceful and polite manner, like a person from a noble family." Bai Wuchang whispered to Hei Wuchang.

Hei Wuchang nodded slightly and said, "Yu Fengxian, my brother is a soul-collector. Aren't you afraid? Or, are you going to draw your sword and resist?"

Xiao Yu smiled and said, "Even if you two are soul-snatchers, you are not going to snatch my soul. Why should I be afraid? Why should I resist?" Hei Wuchang asked curiously, "How do you know they are not going to snatch you?"

"If you two wanted to seduce me, why did you retreat just now?" Xiao Yu said.

Hei Wuchang was stunned for a moment, and he began to feel embarrassed again. He remained serious and asked, "Since you knew we were leaving, why did you force us to stay?"

Xiao Yu said helplessly: "Before the two adults showed their faces, I didn't know their identities at all. I thought it was the followers of Xionghu who wanted to assassinate me."

Then she bowed and saluted, saying, "Sir, the mortal Yu Fengxian has important matters to report to the two underworld officials.

Chi Miao, the ghost messenger from the Western Shu territory, was captured by the evil ghost 'General Biantou' from the Kidnapping Mountain a few days ago. His life or death is unknown now. Please help me, sir!"

The topic shifted too quickly and too far, and both Wuchang were a little confused.

Seeing that they were silent, Xiao Yu added, "To be honest with you two, Chi Miao and I are sworn relatives. Although we are sworn relatives, he fell into the hands of the enemy for official business."

Hei Wuchang said: "Do you know why my brothers are here? We are not ghost messengers from the underworld, but soul-collectors from Fengdu City, specializing in collecting demons and ghosts of monsters and the evil spirits of Qigong practitioners.

The affairs of the underworld in your Western Shu territory, that is, the reincarnation of ordinary lives, are not under the jurisdiction of Fengdu City, and it is not our turn to intervene."

Xiao Yu was stunned. "So the two adults are from Fengdu City. What is the difference between Fengdu City and the underworld?"

Bai Wuchang said: "You don't need to know this--"

Hei Wuchang pulled his arm and whispered, "You should talk to her. We don't want to pick up soul scum anymore."

His tone became extremely strange. Xiaoyu could hear a "grunting" sound, but could not understand it at all.

Bai Wuchang's voice was even lower, and he also said in a "grunting" voice: "Tiger Lord is different from the previous Chi Lingzi.

Chi Lingzi's name was entered into the Heavenly Book of Good and Evil. Heavenly Court knew that there must be a result, otherwise the case would continue to accumulate and would not be resolved.

Tiger Lord is even more advanced, but he is a wild demon. The Heavenly Court doesn't care about him, and Fengdu doesn't even want him. If his soul is gone, then his soul is gone. Just cross out his name when you go back. There's no need to pick up the dregs of his soul. Let him completely dissipate with the wind."

Hei Wuchang shook his head and continued to mumble: "Brother, you also know Yu Fengxian's situation. She is not an ordinary person. It is easy for heavenly talismans, day-wandering gods and night-wandering gods to appear around her.

Once the demons and cultivators who were originally not paid attention to by the Heavenly Court get close to her, they may be included in the Book of Good and Evil.

The Heavenly Court has a record, and Fengdu has a mission.

Look, since she mastered the 'Tiger Soul Seven Killings', she has caused so many 'enlightened people' to lose their souls. In the past, it was Kong Zan and Ge Qing, and now it's Chi Lingzi and Tiger Tianjun. Who will be there tomorrow and the day after tomorrow?

Are we going to follow her all the way and keep picking up soul slag?
As her sword skills become more vicious and her character becomes more cruel, the soul dregs will sooner or later become "soul dust".

Picking up soul dregs is already a lot of hard work, how tiring it must be to clean up the 'soul dust' bit by bit!"

Thinking of a demon whose name is included in the "Book of Good and Evil" in the future, and being crushed into dust-sized yin energy by Yu Fengxian, they chased the yin wind to sweep it away.
Bai Wuchang shuddered, nodded repeatedly, and said, "Brother, that's a good idea. Please continue."

This sentence is no longer "gibberish", and Xiaoyu can understand it.

Hei Wuchang coughed lightly and continued, "There are mortals and animals in this world, as well as immortals and demon gods.

As the saying goes, immortals and mortals have different paths, and there is a gap between humans and demons.

When we are alive, there are different paths for immortals and mortals, and there are also different paths for demons and monsters. After we die and become ghosts, of course they must be treated differently.

The souls of ordinary creatures and the reincarnation of virtuous immortals and gods are all under the jurisdiction of the underworld.

The goblins and qi cultivators who have committed many evil deeds and have great magical powers can still wreak havoc on the world of the living after their death. They are under the jurisdiction of the Fengdu City Management Department.

Now you understand why our brothers came to your house, right? "

"It turns out that Fengdu and the underworld have different powers." Xiaoyu thought thoughtfully.

When these two impermanence beings came to her, she couldn't notice them.

The natural aura emanating from his body also made her heart tremble slightly, and her sense of crisis was constantly triggered.

They are much more powerful than Chi Miao and Song Da Shen.

She was wondering before that demons like Chi Lingzi and Hu Tianjun, even if they were dead, their spirits were extremely powerful, and the patrolling ghosts arranged by the underworld in Xishu were completely unable to control them.

"We have a Yue Temple in Tianmen Town. The temple worships the Great Emperor Dongyue. I heard that he is also a great god in the underworld. What is the relationship between Dongyue and the underworld and Fengdu?" she asked curiously.

"We are in charge, and the Lord of Mount Tai is in charge of our affairs." Hei Wuchang said simply.

"He's in charge of what we do, not us." Bai Wuchang was afraid that she would misunderstand, so he explained a little more.

"All those things?"

Seeing that the two impermanences were both unhappy and impatient, Xiao Yu quickly added: "I don't have to find out the secrets of the underworld.

I just don't understand what you two mean by 'mind your own business'.

The matter has already been assigned to you, and you say that the Lord of Mount Tai cannot control you. How can he control you?"

"You don't know the secrets of the underworld, but have you never seen the government offices in the world of the living? The six departments of the government office are in charge of their affairs, but the Lord of Taishan is not our Lord." said Hei Wuchang.

"Oh, I think I understand." Xiao Yu nodded and asked, "But aren't the Eight Ghost Kings of Guaizi Mountain considered evil ghosts?
They all plan to have thousands of ghosts roaming around every day, bringing disaster to millions of people in Tianmen Town."

"The situation at Guaizi Mountain is a bit complicated." Hei Wuchang hesitated for a moment, then simply said, "First of all, the demons and evil spirits captured in Fengdu were all full of evil and sinful during their lifetime.

They should be arrested and taken to Fengdu to be punished, so that they will pay for the sins they committed in their lifetime.

The ghost kings of Guaizi Mountain were not evil monsters when they were alive. They were even shallow in Taoism and could not escape from the underworld. Even if they were evil, they are not qualified to be haunted by us.

Humans are creatures in the world of the living, and ghosts are creatures in the world of the dead.

If you have not committed all kinds of evil in your life, it is none of Fengdu’s business.

After becoming a ghost, he committed many evil things. At least the affairs of the underworld are not under the jurisdiction of our soul-collecting agents. "

"What does the blessed land of the underworld mean?" Xiao Yu asked again.

"You don't even understand what a blessed land is. I'm too lazy to talk to you." Hei Wuchang looked disgusted and impatient.

"Okay, let's just talk about the demons and ghosts related to Fengdu." Bai Wuchang didn't want to chat with her anymore, so he said directly: "You are a self-taught person without a master to teach you. I will give you a piece of advice today, don't kill other people's souls casually.

Killing people will damage your virtue. Ghosts are living beings in the underworld, so harming ghosts will also damage your virtue."
