Chapter 105 Reactions from Both Sides

The life of the Ghost King of Fengdu.

There's really nothing worth mentioning.

In his lifetime, he was just a commoner in the mountains, whose name he had long forgotten. He was simply unlucky and became a tiger's meal while hunting in the mountains. After his death, he could not wait for the legendary Ox-Head and Horse-Face, which made his resentment grow stronger and stronger, and he eventually became an evil spirit that plagued the area.

During this time, they were fortunate enough to escape the pursuit of many people from the Xuanmen sect and even made a home in these mountains.

Then, as time went on, he gradually grew stronger, recruited other evil spirits as his subordinates, and became increasingly convinced that there was no underworld in the world.

However, those immortals who ride the wind and those secluded fairy grottoes are real.

The immortals even joined forces with the official government of Shenzhou several times to destroy the newly established evil spirit dynasty, causing it to flee into the deep mountains like a stray dog, where it dared not come out for a hundred years.

The Ghost King eventually realized that since he couldn't be the king of the human world, he would be the king of the dead.

Since there is no underworld in the world, he will build one!

If the world were without Fengdu, he would become Fengdu!

How exhilarating it is for a lowly evil spirit to achieve the great feat of becoming the Emperor of Fengdu!

And so, the Ghost King chose to coexist with humans, and even perfectly integrated into human society.

He was a high-society figure who frequented various business circles, but in secret, he constantly used the money of the living to build his own afterlife.

Are governments around the world choosing to disclose their extraordinary powers?

What does it have to do with him?

A catastrophe powerful enough to destroy the world?

That would allow him to plunder a large number of souls to enrich his Fengdu Dynasty!

However, his dream was cut short when reality suddenly changed—

The blood moon that covered almost the entire Guizhou province, along with the intelligence shared by the poker organization when they contacted him afterward, all caused him intense unease.

Now that the underworld outside of China has appeared in the world.

Will the legendary underworld also appear in the world?

Before this problem could even trouble him for a few days, his own Earthly Fiend Generals summoned two Death God agents, who then killed him (Di Ran Xing) without lifting a finger!

If even the agents recruited by the underworld in the mortal realm have such strength, how strong must the real Grim Reaper, the soul-reaping messenger of the underworld, be?

It's easy to imagine how terrible the Ghost King's state of mind was at that moment, which led to his act of venting his anger by slashing the television with his sword.

"Hahaha----"

After venting his anger, the Ghost King stood there catching his breath for a moment, then quickly regained his composed and unflappable expression, and turned back to his throne.

"Investigate! Investigate everything thoroughly! Who exactly are those two Grim Reaper agents? And what about the underworld—"

Is it true or false?

The Ghost King of Fengdu no longer had the heart to bide his time. The underworld mentioned by Tsuchimiya Kagura, and the token of the Death God's agent, tormented his spirit like maggots clinging to his bones, leaving him no peace.

Even if this action might lead to the downfall of the Fengdu Dynasty he had worked so hard to build, he had to do it!

The saying "two tigers cannot share one mountain" probably means this, right?

But in his heart, he compared himself to a tiger.

Is the person on the other side also a tiger?

Meanwhile, in a conference room in the capital.

-

The high-ranking executives, who hadn't had a good night's sleep in a few days, all came in with dark circles under their eyes, and some of them were even drinking coffee to perk themselves up.

A moment later, the meeting's host came in with a kettle, looking as if it contained hot tea.

However, as soon as he sat down, the person next to him picked up the kettle and opened it, only to find that it contained milk tea instead of hot tea.

Host: ———— (awkward)

The man's eyes suddenly sharpened.

The kettle was then replaced with a regular water cup.

And so the meeting began amidst the host's grumbling and the others' suppressed laughter.

"Based on the think tank's analysis, I believe that the mysterious force—or rather, the existence of another, otherworldly entity—is more like a force in itself."

The director of the Bureau of Abnormal Event Management, who was seated on the right side of the round table, started the discussion.

"Because we couldn't find any information related to those girls in any of the databases, the existence of this other world might be similar to the cave dwellings opened up by immortals, isolated from the world like another world."

"In this world, there are different factions: humans, monsters, vampires, and even other non-humans. But they need to go through a thing called the [Gate of Boundaries] to come to reality (the outside world)."

At this point, another person raised their hand to interrupt.

"I have my doubts about that—the portals between realms might just be for convenience, rather than for entering and exiting reality and another world."

Upon hearing the other party's doubts, the director thought about it carefully and felt that it was not impossible. After all, the demon sage had shown off his ability to tear apart space in front of everyone, even if it didn't look very impressive.

But then—

Doesn't this mean there's a group of beings with extraordinary strength, each belonging to different factions, who have been hiding all over the world, yet remain unknown to the public?

"The good news is that most of them show a tendency to maintain order and social stability."

Even though Isayama Yomi, the "substitute Grim Reaper," was fighting from beginning to end, and was "awesome!", she didn't show any disdain towards the ghost-hunting trio or the official rescue team.

This is so much better than a problem child who awakens superpowers and then starts thinking, "My fate is in my own hands!"

"Therefore, our response will primarily be gentle and amicable, focusing on communication. Whether or not we share information about the major disaster is entirely up to them. As for the underworld—"

When the topic of the underworld came up, everyone present fell silent. This was something even those in the Xuanmen sect were unaware of, and the Persian and Egyptian governments were completely clueless about it.

Because of the poker organization's attempts to save face everywhere, the news had already spread throughout the underworld of both places, and the governments of Persia and Egypt had to learn about it through channels in China.

It's practically a giant makeshift operation!

I had absolutely no hope of getting any information from them.

"We can ask those two Grim Reaper agents or someone else about this later—ahem, let's talk about Fengdu for now."

Seeing that the situation had reached a stalemate, the host had no choice but to steer the conversation toward the topic of the Ghost King of Fengdu.

"We have been trying to eliminate this Ghost King for hundreds of years in China, but we have failed. Now that the Underworld exists, we should be able to wipe him out completely."

The director of the Bureau of Abnormal Events immediately perked up. He was furious when he first saw the records of the Ghost King of Fengdu, who had allowed such a monstrous creature to lie on the land of China and suck blood for so many years.

If they could find the enemy's stronghold, they would have already taken their cannons and given them a good beating!

"That Ghost King always managed to evade encirclement and suppression in the past; we can't let him escape this time!"

The Xuanmen representative at the meeting stared wide-eyed, his emotions running high, wishing he could immediately go and fulfill the last wishes of his deceased masters and ancestors.
