The Ghost King and the Demon Queen

They are rising stars in recent years, the four envoys of the Underworld who appear and disappear like ghosts, and are known as the envoys of soul searching.

The four of them waited in the same position for half an hour, motionless, without any sign of impatience, only awe and humility.

A very light breeze blew from the entrance of the main hall, the corners of the black robe slightly raised, a black cloak, half of a silver mask, black hair like a waterfall, and a strange and cold aura all over his body.

With extremely graceful steps, she touched everyone's heart. She walked slowly to the main seat, lifted the corner of her clothes, and sat down gracefully.

Ye Chen followed her and stood aside. This kind of scene didn't happen more than four times a year. For nothing important, she wouldn't summon the four hall masters.

"See the lord." The four bowed down and said respectfully, their tense bodies leaked their nervousness and trembling.

"Hmm." The very soft nasal voice, faintly present, made the four of them concentrate so tightly that they almost broke.

The four of them kept their heads down all the time, and they didn't dare to raise their heads even after being given the seat by the lord. The first order of the lord was not to peep.

A year ago, a person raised his head to peep at the Lord, and blood was immediately splashed on the spot. Since then, coming to the fort has become their nightmare.

"How is the matter going?" The voice was very weak, but it was extraordinarily clear in the silent hall.

"Return to the lord, the three small countries and seven cities on the northern border of the Jinli Kingdom have been subdued. Among the original monarchs and city lords, the subordinates killed four people who did not surrender, including their family members, and sent the six people who surrendered to the city to serve as city lords." Jiang Xue, the man at the front, replied.

"Well, Leng Yutongyun, how are you doing?"

The people who were named trembled slightly, their backs were covered with cold sweat, and their hands and feet were stiff. They were afraid because things were not going well.

"My lord, my subordinates are incompetent. I haven't seen half of the Nanxu Empire for half a year, but my subordinates have conquered the Beiyan Principality and two cities on the border of Nanxu. Now the Northern Yan Kingdom is still in power on the surface. , the essence is controlled by Yan Dian."

The man Leng Yu replied, his voice trembling with a hint of composure.

He didn't dare to ask the lord to forgive his sins. Whether the lord forgives his sins depends on his mood. If the lord is in a good mood today, they might be able to escape.

"The two of you did such a little thing in a year? What use does this deity want you for?" Qiongying said in a nonchalant manner, as if talking about the weather today.

With a puff, Leng Yu and Tong Yun immediately knelt down on one knee, their faces pale and their hearts clenched. The more inattentive the Lord was, the stronger the deterrent effect he gave them, making them breathless.

"Honorable Lord, please give your subordinates a chance to make up for their past mistakes. Your subordinates will definitely do their best and will not let your Lord down."

The woman Tongyun lowered her head and said firmly, maybe she is not afraid of death, but unwilling to do nothing.

Originally, she had died two years ago, her life was saved by the Lord, and it was only natural for the Lord to take her life back.

"So, very good, then I will give you... eight years, maybe even longer." Qiongying said casually.

A rough calculation shows that in the previous life, it took two years to fetch things and four years of sleeping.

She is stronger in this life, and she believes that the time to fetch things will be shortened. As for the deep sleep, she might not need to sleep deeply, and maybe she won't wake up.

eight years?Leng Yu and Tong Yun were surprised and shocked. The Lord sent them to the Nanxu Empire a year ago and asked them to come back in a year. There was nothing they could do in a year. They came back with the mentality of being punished or even killed.
