Chapter 323 Game Over
Hongzhu, the Queen of the Netherworld, restored her original appearance and ended the game of life and death as a winner.
This game seemed very unfair. She was forced to be hunted in the game and her ability was greatly weakened.
The rules of the game are often set by the strong. The weak have to make themselves stronger in the game until they can re-set new rules.
But she is very confident that she will win the game even in the next hundred years. For herself, and for the Netherworld behind her.
As the incarnation of the Netherworld Emperor, Heiyang still hangs proudly in the sky of the Forgotten Land. Even if it fails this time, it will always be high above.
At this time, the Netherworld Emperor himself is enjoying flowers in a luxurious flower garden in the Grand Palace of Fengdu in the Netherworld.
He is wearing a black brocade robe embroidered with five-clawed dragons in gold silk. His tall back stands on the flower viewing platform, and the arrogant temperament of the king is fully revealed.
There are countless magical flowers in the flower garden in front of him.
Lilies with emerald green petals; orchids with black stamens like black snake tongues and an alluring fragrance; golden chrysanthemums with the appearance of a woman's gauze skirt... It's dazzling.
Among these many strange flowers, a red peony with a flower shape of half a foot is particularly eye-catching. Its red petals are stacked layer by layer, showing the color of its life like a burning flame.
The Hades passed by this flower and stopped.
He glanced at it and said without any emotion: "Red Candle Peony."
He gently waved his hand, and the red flower was neatly broken off from the branch, silently flew into his hand, put it in front of his nose, and sniffed it gently. Then, he played with it in his hand for a while, twisted his fingers gently, and turned into flying ash in a ball of black flames.
"This game is getting more and more interesting." The Hades "Tang" said to himself.
…
The memory of Forget-Your-Valley was wiped out by Hongzhu from the Underworld General Tianfeng and his three ghost generals, Qingniu, Lijiao and Zishi, and they hurried back to the Underworld to report. After returning to the Underworld, they were not punished by the Underworld Emperor, nor were they praised, as if the assassination of Hongzhu had never happened. Perhaps the Underworld Emperor himself did not want people to know that he had failed, even if it was just a game.
The six people Yin Feng, Luo Yu, Xingbao, Xinghu, Huansha and Huanli, who were sent by the Three Palaces of the Underworld to hunt down Hongzhu, were also wiped out of their memory of Forget-Your-Valley by the Empress Hongzhu.
Although they did not complete the task, after experiencing this life-and-death crisis together, the relationship between the six people became deeper, which was also their gain. For example, the vague love between Yin Feng and Luo Yu became somewhat clear. The friendship between Xingbao and Xinghu became stronger. Huansha and Huanli, as twin brothers, became more and more like the same person.
The six of them returned to the Three Palaces of the Underworld to continue being their killers. Similarly, the Three Palaces of the Underworld kept silent about this matter.
After the discussion between Empress Hongzhu and the old village chief Lin Badi and others, they reached a consensus to keep Forget-Your-Valley. More innocent people of the You clan who were exiled to the Land of Oblivion were saved.
As for the residents of Forget-Your-Valley, except for a few who were willing to follow Empress Hongzhu back to the You Realm. Most people were used to the life in Forget-Your-Valley. Perhaps they were reluctant to leave the Blood Soul Monument of the Great General, and still stayed in Forget-Your-Valley.
Drunkard Xiao chose to stay in Forget-Your-Valley. He liked to drink under the lush weeping willow in Forget-Your-Valley. When he was drunk, he leaned against the trunk and fell asleep. There were the good memories of him and his apprentice Xiao Yudian.
Boss Bai, who had no relatives in the You Realm, also chose to stay in Forget-Your-Valley and continue to run her small wine shop. Hunter Dali and Butcher Laohen still liked to go to her wine shop together to drink. When they were slightly drunk, they would always intentionally or unintentionally focus their eyes on the plump breasts of Boss Bai, which were unique to mature women, or on her hips that swayed rhythmically when she walked, and even occasionally secretly commented on her.
Boss Bai didn't care. A woman who was admired by more people showed that she was attractive.
However, Boss Bai seemed to prefer to see Drunkard Xiao come to the wine shop to buy wine. Every time she looked at Drunkard Xiao, there was a hint of ambiguity in her eyes, and Drunkard Xiao always politely responded with his signature, uninhibited smile.
The old village chief Lin Badi still liked to stroll around the streets of Wangyou Valley with his copper pipe, and greeted people he met from time to time with a smile. He put the pipe in his mouth and puffed rhythmically, emitting leisurely clouds of smoke.
The blacksmith's hammer was sweating in his blacksmith shop, and loud, clanging iron sounds were heard from time to time.
The tall blood soul monument standing in the center of Wangyou Valley remained unmoved in the wind and rain. The villagers of Wangyou Valley lived without worries under the protection of the Blood Soul Monument. After experiencing this disaster, Wangyou Valley has restored its former peaceful scene.
Wangyou Valley, the Valley of Forgetfulness.
Venerable Youfeng returned to Youfeng Mountain to continue his work as the head of Youfeng Mountain. He organized many Youfeng servants to renovate Youfeng Mountain. Strangely, the No. 2 position was temporarily omitted in the ranking of Youfeng servants. This may be a special reward from Venerable Youfeng to Youfeng servant No. 2, who had the word "two" written on his forehead and gave his life to save Cheng Luyi's life. Someone always remembers him.
Cheng Luyi followed Venerable Youfeng back to Youfeng Mountain, fulfilled her duties as Youfeng servant No. 1, and continued to guard Wangyou Valley in secret. But she would often go to Wangyou Valley alone, looking at the sky of Wangyou Valley and meditating. And her relationship with Venerable Youfeng became more and more like brother and sister.
There is a short, pretty girl in green with two pigtails on her head who often appears on Youfeng Mountain.
The girl in green occasionally holds a fluffy little tiger in her arms. The cute girl and the cute pet make Youfeng Mountain, which is like a black mountain, less monotonous and adds a touch of color to life.
The daring Tiger Siniu on Youfeng Mountain counts her fingers every day. According to the agreement between her and her father, Youfeng Zun, she can go to Tiangui Sect to find Zhuge Yu in half a year.
With a physical body and a young appearance, E Ling followed the Empress Hongzhu back to the Netherworld. From then on, the dignified and noble Empress of the Netherworld had a handsome young guard.
The Netherworld and the Underworld still maintain the same close and special relationship as before.
Every year, people from the Netherworld choose to have the Netherworld Qi infused into their bodies, and then enter the Underworld through the Nipo Dark World to become residents of the Underworld. After all, this can increase their lifespan. In order to live longer, there are always people willing to go to the underworld as second-class residents. But most of them are planned immigrants according to the agreement between the underworld and the netherworld.
The underworld still monitors and intervenes in the netherworld through the three palaces of the netherworld. The two sides seem to be very harmonious on the surface, and there is no obvious conflict. The people of the netherworld live a relatively peaceful life.
Xu Yang, Mu Jin, Gui Gu Changyang, Gui Gu Zan and other Tian Guizong disciples returned to Tian Guizong safely under the leadership of Bai Shaojie, the master of the evil ghost road trial. Each of them was praised by Yu Cheng, the master of the Tian Guizong.
Xu Yang and other 20 disciples who participated in this trial successfully obtained the trial task item-Nine Nether Crystals, and thus became formal disciples of the evil ghost hall.
Ning Tianqi secretly arranged the personnel in this trial, Huang Jiu, Hong Haitang and Xu Yang reported their findings truthfully. The conclusion is that the three people who had contact with the Shadow Organization before, Bai Mujin, Guigu Zan and Shangguan Hongxue, did not have any special actions to prove that they were related to the Shadow Organization.
Afterwards, Ning Tianqi continued to send people to investigate and found that at least ten Nine Nether Crystals flowed into the recent treasure auction market, and three of them were later bought by buyers suspected to be related to the Shadow Organization. These Nine Nether Crystals were the normal income of the disciples who participated in the trial. For a while, Ning Tianqi could not judge who was the spy or intelligence informant of the Shadow Organization in the Tiangui Sect. But it is certain that the Shadow Organization is interested in the Nine Nether Crystals, and they got it.
After a few days, the Shadow Organization seemed to hibernate suddenly, and no news came out.
…
Xu Yang returned to the Tiangui Sect and first paid a visit to Xiao Yue'e, the dean of the Wood Spirit Academy. Xiao Yue'e specifically called out her sister Xiao Yueyu, and the two sisters thanked Xu Yang in person.
Seeing the other sisters reunited, Xu Yang blessed and was happy from the bottom of his heart. He also returned the Phantom Treasure Mirror that Xiao Yue'e had given him before, saying it was a gift to congratulate the reunion of the two sisters. After all, this Phantom Treasure Mirror was an heirloom of the Xiao family, and Xu Yang did not want to take it for himself.
...
Soon, the Evil Ghost Hall was officially established.
Although it was far from the huge scale of the Evil Ghost Hall before it was disbanded several years ago, it also gathered many outstanding young people in the Heavenly Ghost Sect. For example, Xu Yang, Guigu Zan, Guigu Changyang, Huang Jiu, Yaksha Ming... made the Evil Ghost Hall one of the most dynamic branches of the Heavenly Ghost Sect.
The second Evil Ghost Road Trial is being prepared, and more elite disciples will join the Evil Ghost Hall through the Evil Ghost Road Trial.
Regarding the selection of the new Evil Ghost Hall Master, the three major families of the Heavenly Ghost Sect, the Guigu Family, the Yaksha Family and the Impermanence Family, believed that the Evil Ghost Hall Master should be the same as before, and it would be appropriate for the three major families to serve. However, the other families that already hold the majority of seats in the Elders' Council of the Heavenly Ghost Sect firmly opposed it. The final compromise was that Yu Cheng, the leader of the Heavenly Ghost Sect, temporarily took on the position of the leader of the Evil Ghost Hall.
After Xu Yang successfully became a disciple of the Evil Ghost Hall, Tu Sanli came to congratulate him and said that it was a pity that Xu Yang should join Feng Gui Hall with him. The relationship between the two of them, both teacher and friend, became deeper and deeper.
According to the agreement between Xu Yang and his master Gui Gu Ye Yan, he successfully obtained the Ghost Wood Waist Pendant. But the Ghost Howl Land has been closed and can only be opened again in April next year.
In the following time, Xu Yang decided to practice in seclusion. He formed two false pills in Wangyou Valley and began to prepare for a breakthrough to the True Pill Realm.
Before the retreat, Xu Yang went to visit Mu Jin on purpose. Coincidentally, after experiencing the Evil Ghost Road Trial, Mu Jin also vaguely felt the threshold of the True Pill Realm. After meeting Xu Yang, the two sides exchanged their insights into the True Pill Realm. And encouraged each other to break through to the True Pill Realm together.
After that, Xu Yang left Mu Jin's residence, and Mu Jin began to practice in seclusion.
