Cultivating Immortality from the Book of Life and Death

Chapter 282 Miss Mu. (First Update!)

Wanshan Temple, Crane Rest Hall.

Room.

Suddenly back in the real world, Mu Xiangu hurriedly looked around. What came into view was that familiar house, with its doors and windows tightly closed, the light dim, and the objects all showing signs of age.

All around was quiet, and the human cultivator beneath him had not yet woken up; everything was just as it had been when he left.

Once she was sure she had left the underworld, she breathed a long sigh of relief.

That was terrifying!

The legendary underworld, which had been lost for a long time, has actually reappeared!
The world is about to experience a major upheaval!

Fortunately, he survived this time, and this human cultivator's opportunity is related to the underworld...

Thinking of this, Mu Xiangu looked at Zheng Que, who was still fast asleep on the bed.

Now, she could easily crush this damned human cultivator with just a flick of her finger.

However, thinking of the terrifying figure from the underworld, she dared not make a move.

She finally understood why this young man, despite his low cultivation level, had so many powerful ghost servants protecting him...

This is an order issued by that great being in the underworld!

Who dares to disobey?

"The reappearance of the underworld must mean that something big is about to happen, involving both the mortal and spiritual realms."

"Even if this human cultivator can become an immortal in the future, his current meager cultivation level is like that of an ant, nothing at all. He shouldn't be worth such attention from that terrifying being."

"The real reason might be that this human cultivator is an important pawn of the Underworld, and will play a crucial role in the upcoming upheaval!"

"Therefore, that great being of the Underworld will not allow this human cultivator to be harmed at this moment!"

Thinking of this, Mu Xiangu took a deep breath, feeling extremely frustrated. Not only had she been tricked by this human boy, but she also couldn't seek revenge!

They also have to protect the other party!
She doesn't even dare to get out of bed now.

Because she didn't know when the great man of the underworld would send his messengers to investigate.
What if the underworld officials arrive as soon as I leave? How can I prove my relationship with this human boy?
After much thought, all she could do now was sit on the bed and wait for the underworld messengers to arrive...

In the blink of an eye, Zheng Que suddenly opened his eyes and slowly woke up.

Mu Xiangu sensed it, and a murderous aura suddenly surged in her charming eyes. But it quickly disappeared, replaced by a sharp look as she glared fiercely at Zheng Que: "Damn human cultivator, you've finally woken up!"

A chilling voice, shrouded in a menacing aura, echoed in the room.

Upon hearing this, Zheng Que, despite being mentally prepared, was still slightly taken aback when he actually saw Mu Xiangu, the peak of the [Scissors Prison], sharing a bed with him and having intimate contact.

The one I was cultivating with just now was indeed this Immortal Mu!

However, the other person must have returned to reality before him, so why is he still in his bed?
Moreover, the other person's clothes were in disarray, and they hadn't tidied themselves up at all, even leaving their clothes wide open, revealing their private parts.
As Zheng Que was rapidly thinking, he was about to explain that he had been misled by Wan Shan Temple and had not intended to offend anyone... Before he could finish his thought, Mu Xiangu grabbed his throat with one hand and said coldly, "You damned human cultivator, listen up!"

"There will be ghosts...ghosts will come to investigate later."

"If that ghost asks about your relationship with me, just say that you and I fell in love at first sight and are mutually attracted. As for the rest, whatever I say, you just need to nod!"

"Furthermore, my name is 'Mu Xiangu'. When that ghost comes later, you must call me 'Miss Mu'! And you must not show any fear!"

"If anyone sees through your disguise, I'll skin you alive and use you as canvas!" "Understood?!"

Zheng Que was taken aback. Had a ghost messenger come to investigate?
He casually mentioned in the underworld that he would send underworld officials to investigate, but that was just to bluff the other party; he never actually sent any underworld officials to do that.

Moreover, he only has a few underworld messengers around him, none of whom are a match for Mu Xiangu.

The only ghost bride who can rival her is currently nowhere to be found!
We can't exactly bring over the Shadow Play, can we?
The Shadow Play is in an "Unmanageable" state!
Thinking this to himself, feeling the biting cold of the other person's hand gripping his neck, and the ferocity in their eyes, Zheng Que dared not utter a word. He immediately nodded in agreement, saying, "I understand..."

As he spoke, he reached for the clothes scattered around him, intending to put them on first.

But the next moment...

brush brush...

Mu Xiangu snatched his clothes and, with a slight effort, tore all the robes to shreds in an instant, the dust scattering like rain throughout the room.

She stared intently at Zheng Que and said in a cold voice, "You are not allowed to put on any clothes until that ghost comes!"

Mu Xiangu was on high alert. She didn't know when the underworld officials would arrive, and she couldn't afford to take any risks now.

In any case, neither she nor this human cultivator could get out of bed until the underworld officials arrived!

The aura at the entrance to the Eighteen Levels of Hell already surpassed all the terrifying things she had seen in the past few hundred years. She absolutely could not reveal the slightest flaw in front of the underworld officials!
Seeing this, Zheng Que was stunned for a moment, then coughed and said, "Yes, yes..."

Just now in the underworld, he was all high and mighty, and if he wanted Mu Xian Gu to kowtow a few times, he would make Mu Xian Gu kowtow a few times.

But now, back in reality, his cultivation level is only at the eighth level of Qi Refining, which is more than a whole realm lower than this [Painted Skin] female ghost!

Therefore, his status suddenly changed from that of a master to that of a servant, and he dared not disobey the other party at all...

And so, the human and the ghost lay there on the bed, staring at each other, waiting. Time slowly passed, and the room was deathly silent, the atmosphere growing increasingly eerie.

After a while, seeing that the underworld officials were still nowhere to be seen, Mu Xiangu suddenly asked, "Do you know about the underworld?"

Hell?

of course I know!

Zheng Que controlled his expression and replied calmly, "I know. It seems that several of my ghost servants can enter the underworld, but I have never been there myself."

"Furthermore, the decree between my eyebrows was transmitted to me from a mysterious being."

"That mysterious person told me in a dream that if the ghosts I bestow upon them have too little merit, then I can only bestow upon them the position of underworld official."

"If a ghost is granted an official title and possesses profound merit, it can be granted a higher-ranking position in the underworld..."

Imperial edict?

That's it!

Upon hearing this, Mu Xiangu felt certain. She wondered what criteria were used to determine the level of merit.

However, doing things for that great person in the underworld is definitely the greatest act of merit!

Just then, Mu Xiangu suddenly realized something, turned her head sharply, and looked towards the door.
