Hell Emperor

Chapter 158 Lucy-Mysterious Origin

"what happened?"

The sudden change shocked everyone present.

"That judge Lai, who is the leader of the four great judges, was defeated by her one move. She...who is she? Is there such a master hiding in the wine country?"

Li Ba looked horrified and couldn't believe what he saw.

The prestige of the judge has long been deeply rooted in the hearts of every ghost. In the Guangwang Palace, the judge is the supreme existence, and it can be said that no one can rival him under the palace master.

Not only that, Judge Lai's strength ranks first among the four great judges. He is at the peak of the fifth level. He is also able to face the defensive formations set up by ghosts and immortals with ease and can break through them in an instant.

It was such a being who was able to disperse his dharma body with one move. If word spread, no one would believe it at all.

Guazi also had a look of astonishment on his face: "Is that...the target of Miss He's investigation? She actually masters such a powerful technique, but her strength is clearly only at the first level. How did she do it..."

Ye Jie took a deep breath and calmed down after a while:

"No...she just looks like a first-level wandering soul. In fact, her strength is much more than that. I used the remaining pages of the Book of Life and Death to explore her before, and there were all question marks on them, and there was no indication at all..."

Looking at Lucy who slowly closed her hands, covered her head, and collapsed in pain, Ye Jie felt something in her heart. Her origin seemed to be far more mysterious than everyone expected.

This was the first time Ye Jie saw an existence beyond the realm of life and death.

Previously, when practicing together by the Jing River, Ye Jie had seen Lucy perform her skills. She could condense pure white arrows that were very similar to the soul-breaking arrows.

The power of pure white arrows was not strong, and Ye Jie did not take it to heart at that time.

It's just that now, even the aggressive Judge Lai has been shattered by Lu Qian, which makes it difficult for Ye Jie not to pay attention to it.

The law body was broken, and Judge Lai was unable to fight anymore. Zhong Wu Chang also realized that something was wrong, and was worried that there were still back-ups left by ghosts and immortals in the wine country. Even the fifth-level peak judge Lai couldn't beat him, so how could they win? He hesitated for a while and didn't dare to get close.

"No matter what, things have finally turned around. The attack of the ghost soldiers has stopped. It's better to quickly include the wine country in the Qionglou scroll." Ye Jie reminded.

Guazi also understood that the matter was urgent and included Ye Jie and Li Ba in the scroll in advance. Then he flew forward, swept away the Yin soldiers blocking the way, shook the scroll in his hand, and the golden light burst out from the scroll, covering the entire building. Wine country embellishments sparkle.

Seeing the arrival of the melon seeds, all the maids' faces were filled with joy. Golden light filled the air, and the entire wine country rose from the ground. The ground shook and the mountains shook. The light was so bright that it caused the nearby ghost soldiers to scream in surprise.

When everything calmed down, the wine country that stood here just now had long since disappeared, but within the picture of green mountains and green waters, there was an exquisite pavilion.

Before waiting for the impermanence nearby to recover, Guazi took out the Shuchi Stone and disappeared in the blink of an eye, leaving only a group of Yin soldiers looking at each other.

In the scroll, as the wine country was included, Ye Jie also saw familiar maids.

"Are you okay?" Ye Jie asked with concern.

Yulan nodded: "Thanks to the great formation set up by Aunt Meng, none of us were injured. If we delay for a while, the consequences may be disastrous."

"It's okay..." Ye Jie also breathed a sigh of relief.

On the side, Bai Luo was still frightened. She sat back on the chair and clenched her fists tightly:

"Is that the judge's strength? It's really extraordinary. Even the formation set up by Aunt Meng was broken by him. Speaking of which, if Miss Lu Qian hadn't taken action, I'm afraid none of us would have been able to escape the murderous hands of the judge... I'm ashamed to say that, I treated Miss Lucy’s headache many times, but I failed to see that she is strong enough to compete with the judge..."

Guazi said: "The incident happened suddenly, so there is no need to blame yourself. Her actions were beyond everyone's expectations. But speaking of it, even if Miss Lu Qian doesn't take action, the forbidden ancient talisman brought by Brother Jie is enough to deal with the judge. "

The maids counted the losses in the wine country. Although there were no casualties, a corner of the wine country pavilion collapsed during the battle. It would be quite troublesome to repair it.

On the side, Ye Jie also noticed that Lucy was in great pain. After defeating the judge, she covered her head and screamed, uttering words that no one could understand. Under the care of the maids, her expression improved.

At this time, Ye Jie suddenly felt that someone was poking him hard from behind. When he looked back, he saw Xie Xinyu's face was full of questions, and his eyes were filled with anger.

"What's wrong?" Ye Jie coughed dryly.

"Are you still asking me what's wrong? I want to ask you what's wrong!" Xie Xinyu said coquettishly, "When you asked me to teach Lucy how to read, you didn't tell me that she could defeat the judge!"

Ye Jie was also quite helpless and explained: "It's not that I meant to hide it from you, it's just that it happened suddenly, and I didn't know until today that Lucy actually has such power hidden in her body."

After receiving Ye Jie's explanation, Xie Xinyu was still angry and refused to forgive him, complaining:

"It's over now... If I had known she was so powerful, I should have found a way to have a good relationship with her. No matter how stupid she was when she was reading, I shouldn't have been impatient. Now she hates me. It’s all your fault, how are you going to compensate me?”

"Can this be blamed on me?" Ye Jie's eyes twitched.

"Of course! Now that the foundation of my soul has been destroyed, I can no longer practice at all. I finally met a master who is as good as the judge, and I was hated by her. This is all your fault!" Xie Xinyu refused to give up. road.

Ye Jie waved his hand: "This is not my fault. After all, haven't you missed the opportunity? Your temper should really be changed. You can't just because Lu Qian is weak on the surface and doesn't understand the language. Just look down on her. If you were respectful to her and guided her carefully from the beginning, just like Nan Linghe, how could you be hated by her? "

Under Ye Jie's correction, Xie Xinyu puffed up her lips, but she was still dissatisfied: "Only the strong can gain people's respect. She didn't show anything at the beginning. How do I know? I tried my best to respect her, and finally Will it be in vain?”

Ye Jie smiled: "So, your motives at the beginning were wrong."

Xie Xinyu turned her head sideways, and after a while, she set her sights on Lu Qian again: "Speaking of which, what is her origin? I used the book of life and death to explore her, and there were all question marks on it. No matter how many evil virtues I took out, does not work."

Ye Jie also has doubts about this:

"I don't know...but, after all, she is the target of the mission that Nan Linghe received. Nan Linghe has good luck with her. Even if Lucy's origin is mysterious, she will not threaten us. On the contrary, this time Thanks to her action, I was able to defeat the judge, and I was able to save a forbidden ancient talisman."

Xie Xinyu raised her head with a puzzled look on her face: "Did I hear it wrong? Forbidden ancient talisman? What on earth are you talking about? The forbidden ancient talisman is a powerful spiritual talisman drawn by the master of Fu Lu. Where did you get it from a little brat like you? Taboo ancient talisman?”

"do not you know?"

Ye Jie raised his eyebrows. Xie Xinyu stayed in the wine country to recuperate all day long. Of course, he didn't know anything about what happened in Tianxuan Palace: "Do you still remember the Talisman Festival in Tianxuan Palace? In the Talisman Competition, Nan Linghe defeated you. , and finally qualified to participate in the competition..."

Xie Xinyu nodded and said harshly: "Of course I remember, but last time, Nan Linghe was just lucky and drew the mutant talisman. If it happens again, I won't necessarily lose to her!"

Ye Jie glanced at her: "Do you really think so? In the subsequent Talisman Competition, Nan Linghe drew the forbidden ancient talisman, defeated all the Talisman masters, and became the champion of the competition."

Hearing this, Xie Xinyu sneered, not believing it at all: "Are you kidding? This is not funny at all!"

Not long ago, Nan Linghe, who had just learned how to make talismans, turned into a talisman master in the blink of an eye. How could she believe this?

Ye Jie didn't explain much, just took out the six-character Great Ming Talisman from his arms.

Feeling the vast aura coming from the forbidden ancient talisman, Xie Xinyu took half a step back, her eyes widened, and she couldn't say a word at all.

She has made great achievements in the way of talismans. Of course she understands what the forbidden ancient talisman means. Only the master of talismans can draw this talisman. If this talisman is really drawn by Nan Linghe, doesn't it mean that she has become a talisman? The top master of the Tao?

After confirming again and again that Ye Jie was not joking, Xie Xinyu's expression completely collapsed, and the pride in his heart disappeared:

"How could this happen... If I had known that Gui Chahe could become the Fu Lu Grandmaster, I should have made friends with her. Now it's over, even the Fu Lu Grandmaster has been offended by me... She shouldn't hold a grudge, Are you going to harm me?"

Ye Jie smiled and shook his head: "So, you'd better not offend people casually. You don't know what kind of fate the person you offended will have in the future. But you can rest assured that Nan Linghe will not harm you. She didn't take it to heart at all that you offended her, and she has long forgotten about it. "

"That's good." Xie Xinyu breathed a sigh of relief, but said a little worriedly, "But if Nan Linghe really wants to harm me, you have to stop her..."

At the end of the day, Xie Xinyu lost her previous self-confidence. She never expected that the people she offended so easily were powerful people that she couldn't afford to offend. Not only did she lose the opportunity, but now she had to worry about her own safety.

Thinking of this, Xie Xinyu took another look at Ye Jie. At this point, Ye Jie was much better than her, and there was something worth learning from her.

In the scroll of Qionglou, the mentally weak Poria and Mint also learned about what happened to the wine country, and gathered together with the maids who came after hearing the news.

"I didn't expect that in just a few days, such a change would happen in the wine country... From this point of view, our decision to stay in Qionglou Picture Scroll for cultivation couldn't be more correct." Fuling said with emotion.

"We can't go to Guangwang Palace, where will we go from now on?" Bo Min was worried.

"Would you like to go to Tianxuan Palace? I heard that the atmosphere there is much more peaceful than Guangwang Palace." Yulan suggested.

At this moment, Ye Jie also came over. Listening to the discussion of the maids, he said:

"Now there is no peace in Tianxuan Palace. In order to fight for the main tent, the ghosts there will do whatever it takes. The entire Nanzhan continent will be caught in the flames of war, both in the human world and in the underworld. The war-torn environment has already It is not suitable for the wine country to operate smoothly. In my opinion, you should stay in this Qionglou Picture Scroll and wait until the situation calms down and the situation is stable before making plans. "

Guazi nodded in agreement: "Brother Jie is right. As Aunt Meng's maids, what we have to do first is to take care of Meng Junyao's safety in this life. As for the management of the wine country, it is secondary, but it is important not to sacrifice the good and the bad. ”

All the maids echoed:

"That's right. Protecting Meng Junyao is our first duty."

"Wherever Meng Junyao goes, we will go."

Even Fuling, the accountant, agreed:

"By running the wine country, we can gain more virtues. We can also exchange more cultivation resources for Meng Junyao from the underworld. But now that the storm is coming and the world is in chaos, it is not suitable for the management of the wine country. In the end, unless we rely on Aunt Meng’s relationship requires the protection of the Ping Ping Palace. Otherwise, we wouldn’t be able to hold on to the wine country’s foundation. Without Aunt Meng in charge, the wine country would easily be plundered by the evil spirits in the underworld.”

Mentioning Aunt Meng, the mint cat ears raised and couldn't help but ask: "By the way, I don't know how Meng Junyao is doing, whether she is happy in this world... On weekdays, we have to be responsible for the management of the wine country, so we don't have time. I went to the human world to accompany Meng Junyao. Now that I don’t have the busy schedule of wine country, I can go to the human world freely and protect her safety.”

Guazi replied: "Don't worry, she has found a group of very reliable companions in the human world, and her safety is fully guaranteed. Miss He is taking care of her. Even if you don't trust other people, don't you still trust Miss He?"

Mentioning Meng Junyao, all the maids sighed with emotion. The closing of the wine country gave them enough time to be with Meng Junyao. In a sense, it was not all a bad thing.

On the side, Li Ba was still recalling Lucy's move. He couldn't recover for a long time, and turned to pull Ye Jie aside:

"Ye Jie, have you seen it? She can scatter the judge's body with one move. Isn't it easy to deal with other judges? With her attack, it is also easy to defeat the defenders outside Naihe Bridge!"

Ye Jie looked at Lucy but did not answer.

After the battle, she first had a splitting headache, and then began to whisper frantically. It was not until everyone comforted her that she got slightly better. She was silent for a long time, and now her eyes were closed tightly, as if she was in a coma.

Even Ye Jie was not sure whether Lucy in this state could really step onto the battlefield and face off against the judge. The pain she felt was real.

"Her abilities are very unstable, and even her memory is missing... This time, it was because everyone was threatened that she subconsciously activated the power in her body. Next time, I'm afraid she won't be so lucky." Ye Jieyao shook his head.

Hearing this, Li Ba could only secretly say that it was a pity. Judging from Ye Jie's expression, she knew that Ye Jie had made up his mind and would not take the risk of putting Lucy in danger.
