Hell Emperor
Chapter 150 The Return of the Lord of Guangwang Palace
Chapter 150: The Lord of Guangwang Palace - Return
The cold wind swept past, and Ye Jie and his party returned to Lijia Village.
The flames gradually died out, and the sky was filled with ashes after the burning. The corpses of the villagers lay on the streets, and they died with their eyes wide open.
Li Ba's eyes were sad and her face was sorrowful. At this point, the only thing she could do was to collect the corpses of the villagers and let them rest in peace.
She unfolded her Dharma body and entered the form of a ten-foot-tall demon ghost. The peak realm of the third level gave her Dharma body the strength of ten cows and ten horses. She soon dug a large pit several feet square with her bare hands.
Ye Jie sighed and helped her bury the villagers. Guazi still looked like he had no desire to live, staring at the sky in a daze.
One by one, the corpses with miserable appearances were placed in the pit by Ye Jie. There were hundreds of corpses, and they could not be placed flat, so they had to be piled up. After all the corpses were placed, Li Ba, who was as dead as ashes, began to fill the pit with soil, so that everyone could rest here forever.
"Do we need to erect a monument?" Ye Jie asked.
"No need..." After returning to his original form, Li Ba sighed, "Now that everyone in Lijia Village is dead, no one will care about them except me. There is no point in erecting a monument here."
Ye Jie stopped asking.
Li Ba looked at the filled land in silence for a long time, and then said sadly: "Decades ago, Lijia Village was just a small village with a population of less than a hundred, and there were very few practitioners. All this has changed since I became a ghost messenger."
After a pause, she said: "In Guangwang Palace, I tried my best to gain Yinde, but the efficiency of plundering wandering souls was too low, so I set my sights on those wanted criminals with bounties. I used those Yinde to exchange sufficient cultivation resources for the villagers, and Lijia Village became more and more prosperous, and everything was developing in a better direction... However, now everything is ruined. The ghosts followed the orders of the Lord of Guangwang Palace and ruthlessly took away everyone's lives. The Lord of Guangwang Palace and I are irreconcilable!"
Ye Jie was stunned, and looked at her carefully again.
It turned out that before this, she worked so hard to earn Yinde for the people in the village, not just to satisfy her own selfish desires.
Guazi commented: "The so-called impermanence of the world is just like this. People always think that things are controllable and everything is under control, but changes always happen suddenly and there is no common sense to follow."
Li Ba took a deep breath, closed her eyes, and her short figure couldn't help trembling.
Gradually, a different breath gradually gathered in her body, and even Ye Jie couldn't help but look sideways.
She, who was at the peak of the third level, gradually understood the true meaning of impermanence. The destruction of the village and the death of her tribesmen made her deeply understand what the impermanence of the world is.
The spiritual power surged and rushed past. When she opened her eyes again, her capable training clothes were stained black by an inexplicable force, and she also entered the fourth level of impermanence.
"It seems that you have gained a lot." Ye Jie sighed, "As the old saying goes: A blessing in disguise. If Lijia Village had not been destroyed, you would not have been able to comprehend the true meaning of impermanence, nor would you have been able to enter the fourth level so quickly. You should adjust your state and meet the next challenge."
"Hmph, I would rather not have such a realization..." Li Ba clenched her fists. As her level rose, she could no longer suppress the anger in her heart. "We will rush to Luoyang City now. No matter what the Lord of Guangwang Palace wants to do, we can't let him get his wish!"
"That's right... It took so long, and I don't know what's going on over there."
Ye Jie took a deep breath. In order to bury the people in Lijia Village, he spent a lot of time. He just hoped that nothing would happen over there.
"When we get to Luoyang City, we will find a way to find the garrison there, tell them the Lord of Guangwang Palace's plan, and let them prepare in advance..."
While planning the itinerary, Ye Jie took out the Earth-Shrinking Stone. As the sound of the black stone hitting the ground came, everyone moved away again.
"Is this... Luoyang City?"
The space changed, and a magnificent city appeared in front of him.
The city stood on a vast land, with towering walls, weathered by wind and rain, and full of traces of time.
Passing through the city gate, what came to us were wide streets and magnificent mansions. The painted carvings on the eaves told the history of the past and the legends of heroes.
Everything showed the appearance of a peaceful time, and even the sound of insects and birds did not sound. Being here, all troubles seemed to be gone.
If there was something missing in the city, it was probably the lack of bustling people coming and going.
"Something is wrong... be careful!"
Seeing the situation in the city, Guazi's expression changed drastically. She let go of her perception, but the result she received frightened her heart.
Whether it was the magnificent restaurant or the market stalls along the street, they were now empty, and the whole city seemed to be in a dead silence.
"Hmm? What happened? Where did the people in the city go?" Li Ba also found the problem.
Ye Jie took a deep breath: "Not good... We may be too late."
Li Ba was suspicious and said: "Could it be that the people in this city, like the people in Lijia Village, have suffered the murderous hands of the ghost soldiers? But the streets are so clean, there is not even a trace of fighting left, and there is not a single corpse nearby. Did they all disappear?"
Ye Jie frowned, always feeling that things were not that simple.
Li Ba looked around, she rushed into a restaurant, but saw that the seats in the restaurant were neatly arranged, and many tables were displayed with a dazzling array of rare delicacies.
She stretched out her hand and touched the bowls and chopsticks on the nearest table. The next moment she was so frightened that she retracted her hand and shouted: "Ye Jie, come and see, these dishes are still hot!"
"What?" Ye Jie was stunned, and hurriedly ran to the restaurant and found that it was indeed the case, "It's strange, judging from the temperature of these dishes, they were just cooked not long ago... In this case, where have all the people here gone? ?”
Li Ba crossed his arms so hard that goosebumps almost appeared on his arms: "Hmph, don't scare me. Could it be that we bumped into a ghost?"
Ye Jie was helpless: "What are you talking about? Aren't you a ghost? Aren't I a ghost too? If other ghosts almost bump into you, they would be thankful to God. In which case will you bump into ghosts?"
"Humph, that's true." Li Ba scratched his head and asked, "But, how do you explain everything in this city?"
Ye Jie looked around and soon noticed clues.
But he saw traces of chaos remaining on the ground in front of him.
Looking carefully, it was a wooden board with two exquisite dishes on it. The incongruous thing was that the dishes were completely knocked over and scattered all over the floor. They were steaming and even the plates were cracked.
Ye Jie frowned and restored what happened in his mind.
The waiters in the restaurant were working hard to serve the guests. Everything was as usual. The diners were coming and going, drinking and talking, and suddenly something happened.
An inexplicable force took everyone away. No one could realize what happened. Unexpectedly, the wooden board in the waiter's hand fell to the ground, and the dishes were overturned.
"I can probably guess what happened..."
The more he thought about it, the more surprised Ye Jie became, and there was a look of disbelief in his eyes.
It's not just the people in the restaurant who have disappeared without a trace, but the entire city's residents are now missing. That power is more terrifying than Ye Jie thought, and it is also more difficult to guard against.
As Ye Jie explained his deduction, Li Ba looked stunned. Even Guazi felt a little unbelievable:
"Carry away the entire city in an instant? Even the ghost fairy Aunt Meng in her heyday couldn't do it with this kind of power. Under the suppression of the equality formation, even the fairy will have limited power. There is no way There is no way to do this...I am afraid that only a true artifact can do this."
Divine weapons of the first to third grades are far more powerful than the magical weapons of the fourth to sixth grades. Even immortals, few people can possess divine weapons. Those who are qualified to control the magical weapons are all powerful.
Ye Jie took a deep breath and had the answer in his mind: "Master Guang Wang holds a third-grade artifact in his hands: the Ghost Gate. Could it be that this is the power of the Ghost Gate?"
Li Ba was a little puzzled: "Wait a minute... I can understand if the human soul is taken away, but there is not even a corpse left in this city, so what's going on?"
Ye Jie shook his head: "I heard that the power of the Ghost Gate can reverse the yin and yang and open the passage connecting the human world and the underworld. Maybe this is the effect of the Ghost Gate... We know very little about that artifact, or It’s better to be careful.”
"Since there is no one in the city, what should we do now? Who should we remind?" Li Ba was a little embarrassed. She had just entered the fourth level of impermanence, and she instinctively felt fear when facing artifacts such as the Ghost Gate.
"Let me think about it..." After pondering for a while, Ye Jie quickly came up with the answer, "Wait for me for a moment."
After saying that, Ye Jie took out a golden and red divine stone from his arms, which was the spiritual stone that enhanced sound transmission.
Putting the spiritual stone close to his eyebrows, Ye Jie closed his eyes, emptied his mind, and his thinking became more open. His consciousness crossed many barriers and contacted Qin Qiong in the ghost prison.
Ignoring the polite exchanges, Ye Jie hurriedly conveyed the news: "There has been a sudden change in Luoyang City. It is suspected that the master of the Guangwang Palace was attacked. The residents of the city are missing. Is there anything strange in the ghost prison?"
"What?" After hearing this, Qin Qiong, who was waiting in prison, was shocked. "Just now, many people were imprisoned in the ghost prison. I couldn't talk to them. It turns out that the human world Something like this happened..."
Ye Jie was shocked. Sure enough, the worst case scenario happened. He heard Qin Qiong say: "Speaking of which, I have figured out the situation of the ghost prison and made some friends. As long as someone can break through the ghost prison formation from the outside, The prisoners in the prison will start a riot, and then they can take the opportunity to rescue the soul of the late emperor. "
Ye Jie was overjoyed when he heard this, but what followed was a moment of embarrassment:
"It's just that the Netherworld Ghost Prison is tightly guarded and guarded by judges. How can we compete with the master of Guangwang Palace who has been running the palace for many years with our current strength... Could it be that we have to wait until many years later, when the soul of famous general Li Tang returns to the underworld, can we defeat him? Lord Guang Wang?"
Qin Qiong didn't think so: "Speaking of which, I met a person with a special identity in the ghost prison. He is the Hungry Ghost King on the Yaksha Plain. He was imprisoned here because he offended the Lord of the Guangwang Palace. He has Tens of thousands of hungry ghosts are currently in the deepest part of the Yaksha Plain. If those hungry ghosts learn of the whereabouts of the Hungry Ghost King, they will do whatever it takes to save him. This is a God-given opportunity. "
"This is really good news." Ye Jie said with emotion.
The Yaksha Plain does not belong to the Guangwang Palace, nor to the Tianxuan Palace, but to the Sangui Zone sandwiched between the two palaces.
There are always souls who do not want to follow the order of Yama Palace and become the eagle dog of the palace master. They do not want to re-enter reincarnation and forget the past, so Yaksha Plain becomes their first choice.
In the depths of the Yaksha Plain, there are fierce ghosts who have been cultivating for thousands of years. Even the judge has to be careful when he comes here. However, because he and the Yama Palace are not in conflict with each other on weekdays, they have been in peace for many years.
"In this case, after learning the news, I will immediately go to the Yaksha Plain and tell the hungry ghosts there about the Hungry Ghost King." Ye Jie settled his attention.
Qin Qiong remembered something again, and a message came from him: "By the way, I heard that there have been some changes in the Tianxuan Palace recently. Maybe you can ask the ghost messenger from the Yama Palace for help."
Ye Jie smiled bitterly: "Tianxuan Palace... they hate me even if they hate me, and they won't help me."
Ye Jie was quite helpless. If he left the main tent in Tianxuan Hall and befriended the master of Tianxuan Hall, he might be able to get help from Tianxuan Hall at this time.
It's just that... if he was asked to betray his partners and ignore Hua Xiaomei's safety, he absolutely couldn't do it. Even now, he has no room for regret.
Just as he was talking, Ye Jie's expression suddenly changed and he quickly ended the transmission: "It happened suddenly, let's talk about it next time."
Without waiting for Qin Qiong's reply, Ye Jie put down the spiritual stone in his hand and stared at the center of Luoyang with a horrified expression.
But above the majestic and majestic palace, black clouds suddenly filled the air. Between the layers of cirrus clouds, a golden body soared past. The dragon scales were prominent and shining. What followed was a loud dragon roar. Chanting: "People of the Sui Dynasty, your emperor is back!"
The sound of the dragon's roar resounded throughout the world and echoed all over the place. At this moment, many creatures in Nanzhan Continent, no matter what they were doing, involuntarily stopped their movements, raised their heads, and listened to the sounds coming from the nine heavens.
"I am the lord of the Sui Dynasty, Emperor Yang Guang! Now the country of Li and Tang is mediocre and ignorant, condoning treachery and evil, killing babies, and has exhausted its strength. God cannot bear to see the people's livelihood withered and suffering, so it sent me back from the underworld to clean up the rivers and mountains and regain control. world!"
As soon as the word fell, the heaven and earth shook, and those who responded gathered.
Ye Jie's expression changed slightly. On the top of the sky, a divine dragon appeared. What it brought was not auspiciousness, but endless disasters. I don't know how many people would lose their lives for this, and even after death, there would be no peace.
"No... let's get out of here quickly."
Aware of the emperor's power, Ye Jie did not dare to stay for a moment. If he was discovered, he would be dead. He quickly took out the Shuodi Stone from his arms and moved away with everyone.
