Hell Emperor

Chapter 56 Ghost Master-Ranking

In the Pingdong Hall, the announcement of the ghost missions event is still going on.

"This year, the one who won the title of the best ghost in the Witch Temple is - Miko Ina! A total of 2.7 million Yinde was obtained throughout the year!"

The person whose name was heard was a young girl with a cold temperament. She was wearing a red and white witch costume with wide and flowing cuffs. She was bowing to the ghosts around her calmly.

"Next is the Tianxuan Palace. In the twelfth year of the Zhenguan calendar, the best ghost in the spring is Guizacheng, who has obtained a total of 270,000 yin virtues..."

Gui Cha Ba's expression was tense. Di Ting had announced the best ghost chariots in the Eight Halls, and read out the names of the elites one after another. Finally, he came to Nanzhan Buzhou. He only waited for Tianxuan Palace to pass, and then it was Guang's turn. The king's palace.

Looking at the ranking on the performance list, Gui Chajie's heart was beating fast. Although no matter how he calculated it, he should be the best Gui Chai in Guangwang Palace this year, but Gui Chajie's bright red name ranked second was It's so dazzling that it feels like it's stuck in your throat.

Ye Jie's sudden rise in ranking actually put him under a serious threat. On a normal day, judging from the number of yin virtues he had gained in the Guangwang Hall, it would have been impossible to happen.

"Hmph, Guizhajie... You have always been ranked at the bottom, but this time you are qualified to be ranked behind me. You should be proud of this, but the position of the best ghost in winter must belong to me. of!"

Gui Chaba roared angrily, and even looked at Di Ting in the eyes, which also became unkind. Only when everything has settled down can it feel at ease. He cursed secretly: "Huh! Why is this monster's announcement so slow? ! Damn it, don’t be like a turtle, read it to me quickly!”

On the stage, Di listened to the words for a moment, and his amber eyes as big as copper bells accurately locked the ghost in the crowd.

Locked by the aura of the mythical beast, Gui Cha Ba knew that he had made a mistake and remained silent, quietly waiting for the final result to come.

However, offending the mythical beast that symbolized auspiciousness also caused Gui Chaba's luck to be compromised invisibly. Di Ting looked at it carefully and deliberately prolonged the sentence, wanting to say it for a long time.

Gui Cha Ba was stunned and couldn't express his pain, so he had to grit his teeth secretly. No matter what, the final victory must belong to it.

…………

The top of the Black Mountain.

After all the men of the Hengshan Bandit jumped into it, Ye Jie put the soul-calling flag in his arms, looked around, and said loudly:

"I don't know which lord it is, but you secretly protected my life. Please show up now."

There was no one around, and the only answer to Ye Jie was the dark wind blowing under the cliff.

Ye Jie was unwilling to give up and continued: "The Hengshan Bandit at the peak of the third level, his heart-destroying demon palm, even if it is only a long-range attack, is definitely not something I can withstand in the middle of the second level. The end that awaits me should be that I will be completely stunned." Yes. Under his full palm, my soul was intact and not even injured at all. This was thanks to the secret protection of senior. Ye Jie wanted to come out to see me in person. Ye Jie wanted to express his gratitude to senior in person. "

Under Ye Jie's call, he saw ripples in the space in front of him, and indeed someone was moving.

The person was a woman with shark teeth, triangular eyes, and lifeless eyes. There was a deep aura of exhaustion all over her body. The power of the fifth-level Immortal Realm could not cheer her up.

Ye Jie recognized her identity as Guazi, one of the chief maids in the wine country. He cupped his fists and said, "Thanks to Miss Guazi's help, Ye Jie was able to save his life and not end up in a state of despair. This life-saving grace..."

Before Ye Jie could finish speaking, Guazi waved his hand and said feebly: "Aunt Meng told me. If you want to repay, just repay Aunt Meng. It happens that Aunt Meng is looking for trouble, so come with me."

"Look for me at this time..."

Ye Jie was stunned for a moment, with a troubled expression on his face. He was concerned about the safety of his apprentice. When he saw Xia Wei leaving, he frowned and was filled with anger. He was afraid that something unexpected would happen. With Xia Wei's stubborn and even paranoid temperament, he might cause trouble. What trouble comes.

However, rejecting Guazi, who had just saved him, was unreasonable both emotionally and rationally. Ye Jie sighed slightly and moved away with Guazi. He could only pray secretly in his heart that Xia Wei would not cause any trouble.

Returning to the familiar wine country, Ye Jie's eyes froze, but he saw that the zenith of the wine country, which used to be clear and clear, was shrouded in layers of dark clouds. Among the dark clouds, thunder was raging and arcs were surging, as if a storm was coming. precursor.

Guazi moved forward. Although Ye Jie had doubts in his heart, he could only press down temporarily, followed behind Guazi, and quickly climbed to the top of the wine country.

Entering the Splendid Hall on the top floor, Ye Jie also saw many familiar faces, including Magnolia holding a pipa, Poria cocos holding a folding fan, Mint with cat ears, Bailuo with a floating chair, and the other two maids. , all waiting here.

Different from the cheerful and festive atmosphere in the wine country in the past, this time, all the head maids had frowns and depressed expressions.

The sentimental Magnolia was secretly wiping her tears with her hands. Now that she saw Ye Jie coming, she could no longer suppress the sadness in her heart. She threw herself into Ye Jie's arms involuntarily and sobbed softly against his shoulder.

"It's okay...I'm here with you."

Ye Jie stretched out his hand, patted Yulan's back, and comforted her slowly.

Under Ye Jie's repeated words of comfort, Yulan's expression improved, but she refused to let go of the hand holding Ye Jie. She heard Ye Jie ask again:

"Who can tell me what is going on here? Why do you all look so worried? Is there any bad news?"

Poria shook the folding fan and sighed: "It's not bad news. Speaking of it, it should be considered good news, but separation is inevitable... Hey. After Aunt Meng left, the wine country seemed to have been lost. Without Guixian as the backbone, many things will become quite troublesome in the future.”

"Leave..." Ye Jie was stunned, thinking of the thunderclouds gathering over the wine country, and suddenly understood, "Could it be that Aunt Meng is planning to..."

Bai Luo on the seat took over the words and said: "The deadline has come. Aunt Meng has tried her best to delay the coming of the calamity cloud, but in the end it is difficult to escape the fatal calamity. The ghostly Ye Jie, now it's his turn It’s time for you to take action.”

"I see..." Ye Jie thought thoughtfully.

"Now is not a good time for reincarnation. The news of the demon king's reincarnation has made people in Nanzhan Buzhou panic. I really don't understand why Aunt Meng insists on reincarnating in Nanzhan Buzhou..." The heroic maid chief holding a green bamboo spear Slowly speaking, Yulan introduced her identity to Ye Jie. Her name was Yunzhu.

Mint put her hands behind her head, and the cat ears on her head drooped: "We can't guess what Aunt Meng is thinking. All we can do is to find Aunt Meng's reincarnation as soon as possible and protect her all the way. If something happens Three long and two short, we will never forgive ourselves for the rest of our lives. "

Yulan glanced at Ye Jie who was very close and said softly: "With Brother Jie here, I believe that the matter will be resolved satisfactorily. He is the destined person that Aunt Meng has found."

Hearing this, Ye Jie cupped his fists to the chief maids and said, "Ye Jie will do his best to fulfill his mission."

Just as he was talking, a breath of spring breeze came, and the Lord of Wine Country, Aunt Meng, finally arrived. She was dressed in a gilt fairy dress, with a phoenix hairpin on her temples, plump body, and impressive wealth. She had a smile on her face and a leisurely expression, as if she was about to enter not an unknown afterlife, but an ordinary outing.

"Aunt Meng...you are finally here."

"We will protect everything in the wine country and wait for your return."

Seeing Aunt Meng coming, the head maids gathered around her chattering, their words full of reluctance.

Aunt Meng smiled and waved her hand: "Well, separation is always heartbreaking, but I believe that fate will bring us back together. You must know that the word fate is so wonderful, don't you think so? Ah, a destined person?"

As she said that, the corners of Aunt Meng's eyes slightly raised, her beautiful eyes like a clear lake swept over Ye Jie beside her.

Ye Jie cupped his hands and said, "Aunt Meng said yes, so of course it is."

Aunt Meng raised her hand and snapped her fingers. The surrounding space changed. In an instant, everyone came to a rushing river. A bridge stood here. The bridge was filled with purple phantom mist, which seemed real and illusory. In Meng Ruyan, in the middle of the bridge, an old woman hunched over looked like she had been waiting here for a long time.

…………

In the Hall of Pingping, Ting Ting's tone was neither fast nor slow, showing the leisurely contentment of the divine beast:

"After the ranking announcement of the first nine halls, it is finally the turn of the last hall of the ten halls of Yama. Let us take a look at the ranking of Guangwang Hall..."

In a corner of the hall, listening to Di Ting's slow tone, Gui Cha Ba felt anxious, wishing he could rush to the stage and recite the next content on Di Ting's behalf.

It couldn't help but look at the rankings again, and saw that Ye Jie's moral virtue had stopped moving at 350,000, and the rankings had not changed. It had long lost the possibility of sprinting to the first place in the quarter. It finally felt relieved and laughed loudly: "Humph, Gui Cha Jie? You want to fight with me, but you are too young. Next, it is time to gain victory!"

On the stage, Di Ting recited loudly: "In the twelfth year of the Zhenguan calendar, the best ghost in the spring of Guangwang Palace was Gui Chaba, who obtained a total of 294,000 yin virtues..."

Hearing the familiar name ringing, all the ghosts in the Guangwang Palace cast their envious and admiring eyes on the red demon ghost with his arms folded, and praised him repeatedly:

"Gui Cha Ba is really good."

"It is indeed the pride of our Guangwang Palace!"

"The glory of Guangwang Palace can be carried on Gui Chaba's shoulders!"

On the luxurious steps, Di Ting said again: "The best ghost in summer is Gui Chaba, who has obtained a total of 342,000 yin virtues..."

This time, even the fourth-level Gui Chahu, who was ranked high in the Guangwang Palace, couldn't help but cast his sights on Gui Chaba: "This person is extremely talented and can only rise in a few years. Although He is only at the third level, but he can barely compete with me. He is a rare talent. "

Even Xie Bi'an looked at Gui Cha Ba with cold eyes: "You have some strength, but in the upcoming Ten Palaces Gui Cha Battle, do you have the ability to survive it?"

Di Ting said again: "The best ghost chariot in autumn is Gu Cha Ba, who has obtained a total of 331,000 yin virtues..."

Seeing that someone has won the position of the best ghost for three consecutive quarters, this time, even the Lord of Guangwang Palace, who was sitting on the throne of Yama, cast his admiring eyes on the red demon ghost. The judges around him, I couldn't help but applaud Gui Cha Ba.

In the compliments of everyone, Gui Cha Ba gradually lost himself. He raised his hands, ready to welcome the victory.

…………

When they came to the Naihe Bridge, Gungun Jieyun also followed. Aunt Meng took out a lifelike clay figure from her arms, and then took out a palm-sized wooden name tag and showed it to Ye Jie.

Looking at the nameplate, Ye Jie was stunned: "Is this... Divine Phoenix Sycamore Wood?"

Aunt Meng smiled slightly: "Do you know what it does?"

Ye Jie nodded: "I have heard that it is the phoenix wood that the phoenix inhabited when it was reborn. As long as it is made into a nameplate, engraved with the name you like, and carried with you when you reincarnate, you can guarantee that your name will be called this in the next life. The phoenix bird only exists in the heaven where immortals gather. I have never seen the phoenix phoenix wood. Today, I know that what I said is true."

"In order to get this small piece of phoenix phoenix wood, I have thought of many ways."

Auntie Meng showed a pained look on her face, and asked Ye Jie to look at the name on the nameplate: "'Meng Junyao', this is my name, and I will use this name in the next life. Maybe in reincarnation, I will forget everything, but I don't want to forget even my name."

Ye Jie secretly sighed, with a clay man made of the soil of the Styx to determine the appearance of the next life, and a nameplate made of the phoenix phoenix wood to determine the name of the next life, the immortals' attention to the method of reincarnation is indeed unique.

Aunt Meng asked again: "In my next life, she has exactly the same name and looks as me, but do you think she is still me?"

Ye Jie thought for a moment: "She is still you, but not the original you. Although the soul is the same, what kind of personality she will have and what kind of person she will become are all shaped by her fate."

Aunt Meng was silent. Hanging the nameplate in front of her, she saw the calamity clouds in the sky getting more and more intense, and the blazing lightning tore through the sky. She shook her head gently, swept away the troubles in her mind, and said with a smile: "Anyway, my destined person, I'm waiting for you to find me in the next life. Give me your ghost messenger order."

Ye Jie did as he was told and handed the ghost messenger order engraved with the word Jie to her. She slowly stepped onto the bridge and looked back. There was endless attachment in the depths of her eyes, and her figure disappeared in the thick mist.

At the same time, the broken page in Ye Jie's arms also sent an unprecedented violent vibration!

[Book of Life and Death:]

[In the winter of the twelfth year of Zhenguan, the immortal holding the ghost messenger Jie token successfully carried out the third-grade reincarnation. 】

【A second-level ghost messenger charges a 1% guide fee. 】

【Ghost messenger Jie has earned 1 million Yin De. 】

Next to the cold text, a bright red cinnabar painted Aunt Meng's plump, round, happy and kind face.

After watching Aunt Meng go away, Ye Jie took the remaining pages back into his arms and remained silent for a long time.

…………

In the Pingdeng Hall, the announcement that was being listened to attentively finally came to the last moment:

"The best ghost messenger in winter is Ghost Messenger Jie, who has earned a total of 1.35 million Yin De."

"This year, the winner of the best ghost messenger in Guangwang Hall is - Ghost Messenger Jie! He has earned a total of 1.34 million Yin De throughout the year!"

As soon as the words fell, the ghosts in Guangwang Hall who were congratulating Ghost Messenger Badao stopped their compliments and cheers, and were completely dumbfounded.
