Chapter 257-258: The Underworld’s Past, Getting Married~
The mont Luo Sheng opened the door.
An old voice ca out, followed by the sight of a white-haired old man in plain clothes, covered in dust and exhausted, thin and frail.
With disheveled hair, dirty, a common prisoner image in the dungeon.
However, he was more miserable than the average prisoner, with shackles made by Xuantian restraining his hands and feet.
Several 1-ter long iron chains locked him to the wall.
Limiting his range of motion to no more than 1 ter.
There were also several shiny iron rings precisely locking his dragon bones.
Rendering him unable to use even a fraction of his strong abilities.
He could only endure tornt in this dungeon, suffering daily purification in an endless purgatory.
Therefore, he looked very disheveled, but his voice remained steady and deep, carrying the sense of ti’s vicissitudes.
“If you want to kill , just do it quickly, no need to torture this old man like this,”
the elder said in a deep voice.
But the mont he looked up, he froze in place.
Unable to use his cultivation, he couldn’t sense whose aura it was, unable to distinguish between Luo Sheng and the Ghost King.
He had only thought the one opening the door was the Ghost King, coming to take his life.
But seeing Luo Sheng before him.
A confused expression appeared on his aged face.
Luo Sheng then coughed and reintroduced himself: “The Golden King has already been killed by us. I’m here to take over Fengdu Ghost City. You can call
Luo Sheng, and this is my fiancee, Bai Moxue.”
“That bastard Jin Ke is dead?”
Jin Ke was the Ghost King’s full na.
Faced with the old man’s questioning again.
Luo Sheng nodded solemnly, “He died at the hands of my fiancee. Look, this is his ghost crystal.”
As he spoke, he displayed a purple crystal emanating a terrifying energy, obtained from killing the Ghost King.
“Good riddance!”
The old man sighed, as if a great revenge had been fulfilled, and his whole body relaxed.
Then he turned his head calmly to look at Luo Sheng, “What do you want from ?”
Luo Sheng then said: “I know you were once the City Lord of Fengdu Ghost City, the Yin King, Wang Yuanping, so I wanted to ask you about so things.”
As he spoke.
He ca to the Yin King’s side, took out the steel-lting sword that could create ultra-high temperatures, and slowly cut through the dark iron.
Releasing the Yin King.
He wasn’t worried about what the Yin King might do to him, although the Yin King possessed gold-level abilities.
Unfortunately, he had lost a large amount of his cultivation, and the power he could exert was only at the silver level, even weaker than Bai Moxue at her peak.
So, Luo Sheng wasn’t afraid at all.
“Thank you, young one.”
Wang Fangping felt the shackles on his body loosen bit by bit, and his previously unusable cultivation slowly recovered.
Stroking the indentations on his hands and feet where the shackles had been.
His mind was in a daze.
He had thought he would spend the rest of his life trapped in this dungeon, enduring endless tornt until death.
He never expected to have a day of rebirth.
“What do you want to know from ?” the Yin King asked again.
Luo Sheng then stated his purpose: “I want to know why the Yin-Yang world has fallen into disorder, and why you were imprisoned here, allowing the Ghost King to beco the city lord and act as his accomplice…
Also, what exactly is beneath the Demon Suppression Tower?”
These were all the various problems and anomalies that had appeared in Bai Moxue’s world.
So, Luo Sheng wanted to understand clearly.
He also wanted to unravel the reason for the Card World being darkened.
“You have too many questions. I can enlighten you, but now is not the ti to talk here.”
As the Yin King spoke, he looked towards Bai Moxue.
She was protected by a thin film of water, but the water film was evaporating bit by bit, and in about two incense sticks’ ti, the water film would be depleted.
“Her essence blood is burning severely. If she continues to stay here, I’m afraid she won’t survive,” the Yin King pointed out.
Luo Sheng then ca to his senses.
Although Bai Moxue seed fine now, if the ice water protection disappeared, she would have to endure heavy suffering.
“I’m sorry, I didn’t consider thoroughly.”
He held Bai Moxue’s hand.
Bai Moxue also lowered her head, her face also showing apology. If she hadn’t been so weak, she wouldn’t have needed soone to take care of her.
“Repairing her essence blood will be extrely difficult. The precious materials needed have probably been eaten by that bastard Jin Ke,” the Yin King said.
After all, Luo Sheng had saved his life.
Freeing him from the suffering in the cage.
However, if there was really no way to restore Bai Moxue, being able to survive would already be good enough.
Luo Sheng said indifferently: “Sir, I’ve already thought of a solution for this.”
“That’s good.”
The Yin King nodded.
Then the three left the dungeon and returned to the City Lord’s mansion.
But when the Yin King appeared in the City Lord’s mansion.
The forr ghost soldiers all showed surprised expressions.
Many ghost soldiers prostrated themselves on the ground: “Yin King, so you didn’t die, we thought you had passed away!”
“Yes!”
“The Ghost King said you had died from cultivation deviation, so he took control of Fengdu Ghost City.”
Faced with the crying subordinates, the Yin King was also moved, “I was just imprisoned by that beast, but now it’s all over, and he’s dead.”
Then the Yin King asked the surrounding ghost soldiers: “Only you are left? What about the others?”
Hearing his words, their faces showed even more painful expressions.
A ghost soldier ca directly in front of him, “My lord, the others are all dead. To eliminate dissent, the Golden King sent them to their deaths one by one, and finally replaced them with his own people.”
“What!”
The Yin King showed an extrely surprised expression.
His originally calm face showed a worried look, and he bent over, seeming to have aged many years.
“Hehehe…” He laughed bitterly, “I agreed to hand over the position of City Lord of Fengdu Ghost City to him back then, to protect my subordinates. I didn’t expect him to treat
like this. That bastard truly deserved to die!”
He glanced at the people around him.
The familiar ghost generals were long gone, replaced by new faces.
But under him, the very lowly ghost soldiers all still recognized him.
Even Soldier A and Soldier B knelt on the ground, crying in pain.
Luo Sheng said from the side: “These are all very loyal ghost soldiers. Just by throwing down a few resources, they can grow again and beco great generals.”
The Yin King waved his hand.
He found a stone stool and sat down.
“No, no, Fengdu Ghost City was taken by you, you should be in charge. I’ve been imprisoned for so many years, I no longer want to manage Fengdu. I hope you’ll treat the people below well.”
The Yin King said straightforwardly.
He laughed bitterly again.
The torture he had endured over these years made him never want to touch Fengdu Ghost City affairs again.
He also didn’t want to fight with Luo Sheng for control of Fengdu Ghost City. There was no need to make sacrifices for this, and he might not be able to defeat Luo Sheng anyway.
The current Luo Sheng should have used so kind of spell to conceal his aura.
But judging by his calm deanor in the face of the high temperatures of the endless purgatory, his strength should not be low.
In addition to his life-saving grace, the Yin King felt that giving Fengdu Ghost City to them might be a good choice, and he could also focus on his own cultivation.
At this ti, Bai Moxue said from the side: “Grandpa, Luo Sheng will leave a position for you in Fengdu, so you can live here.”
She wanted to help Luo Sheng win over the Yin King.
The Yin King forced out a smile, “Then I thank you.”
After he rested for a cup of tea’s ti.
The Yin King began to answer the questions Luo Sheng had raised earlier: “The disorder of the Yin-Yang world is due to the King of Hell. Everyone thinks the King of Hell has disappeared, but in fact, he hasn’t disappeared, he has gone into cultivation deviation.”
“Cultivation deviation?” Luo Sheng frowned slightly.
Bai Moxue also expressed her confusion from the side: “The King of Hell’s strength is so formidable, he generally wouldn’t go into cultivation deviation.”
The Yin King explained in detail: “But he did indeed go into cultivation deviation. As far as this old man knows, he didn’t go into cultivation deviation while cultivating.
Instead, suddenly, a black energy was born in him.
So he went mad, slaughtering all the subordinates around him, even devouring their cultivation. It took two days to massacre everyone in the King of Hell Palace, and then he disappeared.
Such a big event, only a few people knew about it, but they didn’t dare tell others that the King of Hell had gone mad, they could only falsely report that the King of Hell had disappeared.”
Listening to the Yin King’s explanation.
Luo Sheng nodded thoughtfully.
And expressed his own thoughts: “I think the King of Hell didn’t suddenly go mad, but was influenced by the power of darkness.”
“Power of darkness?”
Both the Yin King and Bai Moxue showed puzzled expressions.
Luo Sheng had to explain like this: “A strange energy, just like the demons and monsters coming out of the Demon Suppression Tower, only understanding killing.
I can’t explain the details to you yet.
I can only say that so mysterious force is controlling all this, so the disorder of Yin and Yang is just a derived result.”
The Yin King ntioned devouring.
It could confirm that the power of darkness suddenly descended upon the King of Hell long ago.
If that’s the case, then the King of Hell card must be in the hands of an evil Card Master, and this evil Card Master is incredibly powerful.
Judging by the Yin King’s peak strength at the golden level, he was still no match for the King of Hell.
From this, it can be deduced that the King of Hell must be a platinum level or above card, and the Card Master possessing such cards must also be at this level or above in strength.
