Hell Emperor

Chapter 107 Li Ba - Treat

With the order of the Lord of Guangwang Palace, all the ghosts in the palace bowed down and worshiped. That authority and decisiveness made no ghost dare to question it, but only dare to admire it from the bottom of their hearts.

Ye Jie bowed his head deeply, cold sweat on his forehead, and even Li Ba, who was arrogant in the past, couldn't stop shaking his arms.

Silent killing spread in Ye Jie's heart. The tension and depression of the coming storm made him feel uneasy from the bottom of his heart, but he never said a word.

"Such secrets must be conveyed to the human world as soon as possible... If left alone, tens of millions of people will suffer from this disaster!" Qin Qiong's voice transmission sounded in Ye Jie's heart again.

Ye Jie agreed very much that he must convey this matter to his companions in the human world as soon as possible.

However, the flying sword that was a hundred feet above the ground was not within the range of the Earth-Shrinking Stone. As the name suggests, the Earth-Shrinking Stone can only be moved on the ground, but it cannot move itself to the sky.

Ye Jie had to wait until the flying sword landed and Xia Wei and others contacted him with the ghost messenger order before he could tell them this shocking news.

Yang Guang ordered again: "Imprison Qin Qiong in the Netherworld Ghost Prison. At this moment, he must not let the news leak out!"

Judge Zhang walked in front of Ye Jie. Ye Jie saw what he meant and pretended to uncover the soul-binding talisman on Qin Qiong's back. Qin Qiong also moved with the momentum. Just as he was about to escape, he was entangled by a dark rope and could not move.

The soul-binding rope used by the judge was more than a thousand times stronger than that of ordinary ghost messengers. Even if it was only a mid-level human-level skill, it had reached perfection in the hands of the judge. Even as strong as Qin Qiong, he was completely bound by the soul-binding rope.

"What a pity..." Judge Zhang's expression was calm, but when he looked at Qin Qiong, he showed a bit of regret, and then took him away.

Ye Jie and others also took their leave.

After retreating outside the palace, the cold wind blowing in his face also made Ye Jie feel a little relieved.

Facing the old emperor, the huge pressure that the master of a palace has to bear is like a mountain pressing on his heart. If he is not careful, even if he just says the wrong words, he will fall into an irretrievable situation.

Even if he left the Yama Palace, the power of the master of the palace still remained in Ye Jie's heart, making him unable to calm down for a long time.

"Huh, Ye Jie, you are still here?" A familiar cold snort came from his ears. Looking in the direction of the sound, Ye Jie also saw Li Ba who had received the skills.

"I'm just about to leave."

He waved his hand, not wanting to chat with Li Ba, and then heard her say: "Humph, this mission was successfully completed thanks to you. Not only did I not receive any punishment from the Palace Master, but I also received some good skills. I'm not an unreasonable person. I heard that Aunt Meng's Winery has reopened, so I'll treat you to a good meal."

"What?" Ye Jie's mouth twitched, thinking that if you were reasonable, no one would be unreasonable, and looked at Li Ba curiously, "I remember, didn't you hate me? You used to target me everywhere."

Li Ba didn't shy away, and snorted: "Hmph, you used to rank last in performance every year, and you dragged down our Guangwang Palace every year at the Ghost Messenger Festival. How could you not be annoying? Now you have made me look at you in a new light."

Ye Jie clasped his fists. He didn't expect Li Ba to be so calm, but still said: "I have something important to do now, I'm afraid I can't spare the time, maybe next time..."

Li Ba was furious: "Huh? I invited you to dinner, and you dared to refuse? No, you must go with me today!"

After saying that, she unfolded a ten-foot-high demon ghost body, stretched out her hand to grab Ye Jie, and ran all the way with Ye Jie to the wine country.

Ye Jie's face was full of helplessness. Who would force others to eat? Hongmen Banquet?

Also, didn't you say that you are not an unreasonable person? So you use fists to reason?

As soon as he arrived in the magnificent wine country, Li Ba's huge demon ghost body attracted everyone's attention.

"Brother Jie, are you okay?" Bohe, who was on duty at the front desk, saw Ye Jie being caught by Li Ba at a glance, and quickly jumped over to ask, with a worried look on her face.

After saving little Meng Junyao, Ye Jie can be said to be a great benefactor of Jiuxiang. Seeing Ye Jie in trouble, all the maids in Jiuxiang would not sit idly by.

"Don't worry, Li Ba insisted on inviting me to dinner here, it's really hard to refuse such a kind invitation..." Ye Jie explained. Anyway, he was planning to go back to Jiuxiang, and Li Ba caught him, which was convenient for him.

Bohe looked at Ye Jie, and then at the red demon ghost beside him. She didn't feel any hostility from Li Ba, so she was relieved a little.

"Okay... two private rooms." Although a little confused, she still arranged a private room on the upper floor for the two.

Walking outside the private room, Li Ba dispersed his Dharma body, restored his appearance as a short girl, looked at Ye Jie and said: "Hmph, do you know that half-demon maid?"

"Half-demon maid? Did you say Mint?" Ye Jie replied, "She is my friend."

"Hmph, you have so many friends, even the maid from the wine country is your friend." Li Ba curled his lips and said, not knowing if it was an illusion, Ye Jie seemed to hear a bit of envy.

"I am not strong enough, and I don't have any natural magical powers. Thanks to my friends' help, I can become the best ghost messenger." Ye Jie answered truthfully.

"Hmph, help? Who can help you with one million Yin De? Have you made friends with ghost immortals?" Li Ba sneered at Ye Jie's statement.

Ye Jie smiled, and she really got it right.

After sitting down in the private room, a maid soon came in to ask about the meal.

"Well, give me a signature dish worth 50,000 Yin De and a wine worth 10,000 Yin De. You can decide what to order, not too much or too little." Li Ba said without even looking at the menu.

Ye Jie was helpless: "Do you usually order like this?"

"Humph, is it not okay? Or do you have any objections?" Li Ba glared at him with an unhappy look on his face, "Compared to tasting the taste, the spiritual power contained in the dishes is more important."

"That's true..." Ye Jie nodded.

After waiting for a while, Ye Jie asked again: "Speaking of which... you invited me to this high-end wine country, it shouldn't be as simple as just inviting me to dinner, right? If there is anything that can be done with me, I will definitely try my best to complete it."

As the saying goes, people who take from others are short-handed, and people who eat from others are soft-hearted. Since Li Ba dragged him to the wine country, and she also spent 60,000 Yin De, Ye Jie could only make do with what happened. No matter what task she gave him, he could only bite the bullet and do it, just hoping that it was not a difficult and troublesome matter.

"Ah, what's the matter? Eating is just eating, why is it so troublesome?" Li Ba looked puzzled.

This time, it was Ye Jie who was dumbfounded. Did she really just invite me here for a free meal?

For some reason, looking at the confused Li Ba, Ye Jie felt relieved and smiled slowly.

Although Li Ba is usually arrogant, such people are straightforward and have everything written on their faces. They are also the least calculating, at least they don't have to worry about being calculated by her. In comparison, Xie Bian, who is full of resentment in his heart, makes Ye Jie more worried, as if he was stared at by a sinister venomous snake, and he doesn't know when he will be bitten.
