For a moment, the old man stood in the main hall and bowed his hands in worship.
"Your Majesty, the spies in the world have sent news that Yu Shangfei, the ferryman from the north, encountered an accident a few days ago. Now Qingya has gone to take charge of daily life."
"Yu Shangfei is dead? Do you know who did it?" Di Xi said in shock.
Sima Yi shook his head: "It's not clear who it is, but it is said that it was Cao Ning, the ferryman from Jiangning Bay Area, who did it.
That day, Yu Shangfei went to him to vent his anger for his own selfish reasons, so he was brutally murdered.
Now some foreign ferrymen have jointly filed a lawsuit against the underworld.
However, it seems that someone deliberately suppressed the matter of sending it to the underworld, and it has never been put on the agenda."
Since Ximen Wudi was demoted to the animal realm and would never be reincarnated, Sima Yi was also implicated and wanted by the underworld.
In desperation, he fled to the ghost world alone.
With his talent and resourcefulness, Sima Yi was quickly taken under Di Xi's command and served as a think tank to advise him.
"Cao Ning? It's him again!"
Hearing this name, Di Xi couldn't sit still.
He stood up from the throne and carefully recalled all the deeds about Cao Ning with his hands behind his back.
"This kid has repeatedly ruined my good deeds by relying on Yao Ji's backing. He has destroyed several properties I managed in the world of the world.
Unexpectedly, he would now reach out to Yu Shangfei again, which was tantamount to destroying all my informants in the Northern Faction.
It’s so hateful!” Di Xi said angrily.
Speaking of Cao Ning's various actions, Sima Yi is the one who has the most say.
Because he had just been cornered by Cao Ning.
"What the King said is absolutely true. It was because of him that Ximen, the Logistics Secretary, and his family were completely destroyed.
But what surprises my subordinates the most is that the underworld has not punished this person for making such a big fuss, which is simply puzzling."
"Haha, what's so strange about this? It's not all because he has a good wife."
Di Xi said with a sullen face: "The majestic King of Hades would actually marry a small ferryman.
She Yao Ji is not afraid of being laughed at!"
"What, Pluto is married?"
Hearing this, Sima Yi seemed to have been struck by lightning and stood there with his eyes wide open.
After being stunned for a while, Sima Yi asked with disbelief.
"Your Majesty, are you saying that Pluto did not go into seclusion, but got married in the human world?"
"Haha, do you also find it incredible?"
Di Xi laughed and explained: "Did you still think she was in seclusion?
If you really believe such nonsense, you are totally wrong.
In fact, Gu knew that she was married as early as a year ago, but he did not make the matter public because of intimidation."
"this..."
Although he heard Di Xi personally testify to this matter, Sima Yi still couldn't believe it was true.
As the ruler of the underworld, Pluto would actually marry a mortal. No one would believe it if he told it.
At first glance, isn’t this a plot that only appears in novels?
"This is so... ridiculous!"
Sima Yi couldn't get over it for a long time after hearing this.
But now that I connect everything together, it can be explained.
Sima Yi thought for a long time, and then said seriously: "Your Majesty, if this matter is true, then we may have a chance to rise."
"Oh, what do you mean?"
Di Xi suddenly became interested!
Sima Yi is a famous counselor, and his vision is far more far-sighted than ordinary people.
Sima Yi stroked his beard and continued confidently: "Your Majesty, Pluto is the ruler of the underworld and the only remaining gods in the Three Realms.
Her magic power is unfathomable, and it is precisely because of her presence these years that the ghost realm has been overwhelmed by the underworld.
But now she has destroyed the Great Wall and even married a mortal.
Then can we use this as an opportunity to publicize and create public opinion?
You know, not everyone in the underworld is die-hard loyal to Pluto, as long as we spread this news.
I think that when the time comes, those with grudges will definitely come out to oppose it, and the underworld will be in chaos.
At that time, our opportunity will come."
"Zhongda's strategy is indeed good, but..."
Di Xi hesitated after hearing this!
He had thought about this idea a long time ago, but considering that his own strength was too weak, he gave up this adventurous idea.
At this time, Sima Yi obviously saw Di Xi's concerns, so he added.
"Your Majesty, my subordinates have been responsible for counting the number of ghosts in the area during this period.
Fortunately, I have fulfilled my mission and finally registered all the ghost people under my rule."
"So fast?"
Di Xi was a little surprised!
The people under my command have been collecting data for ten years, but they still haven’t come out yet.
But within a month of Sima Yi's arrival, he had compiled statistics.
This kind of speed can't help but stun people.
"Zhongda is indeed a capable man, much better than the losers under me.
Please tell me quickly, how strong are we now?"
After Di Xi heard this, he couldn't wait to ask Sima Yi about the situation.
The Ghost Domain has always pursued a strategy of keeping a low profile and secretly recruiting evil ghosts to enrich its own strength.
After so many years of development, the changes in Ghostland are visible to the naked eye.
Sima Yi solemnly raised his hands and said: "Back to your Majesty, there are now 2.62 million ghost people of various types under Donglan's rule.
Among them, there are 536,000 people who can reach the level of evil spirits and 18,000 evil spirits.
There are a little less people at the Ghost King level, only more than 300, and beginners account for a large proportion of them.
If we really go to war with the underworld, the number of troops we can use is probably around 1.6 million."
"Are there so many?"
Di Xi was stunned!
He didn't even know that an army of millions of undead had gathered under his rule without even realizing it.
"This is not considered non-combat. If we really pull them all in, we can still get two million."
Noticing that Di Xi was very excited, Sima Yi continued to add.
“In fact, we have been pursuing the policy of keeping a low profile and biding our time in recent years, and have continuously expanded our capabilities.
If we let go of all-round development, our strength will not stop there.
Besides, this is only the military strength of my Donglan family, and I think the strength of the other three families in Ghost Domain is not much different."
"Listening to what Zhongda said, does that mean that we have enough strength to start a war with the underworld?" Di Xi said excitedly.
You know, he has been waiting for this day for too long.
Sima Yi nodded and added: "Judging from the quantity, you can say so!
But to be on the safe side, you still need to keep training.
You must know that our combat strength of more than one million is basically a mob.
I'm worried that once we confront the regular underworld soldiers, there will be a risk of collapse."
"What Zhongda said is absolutely true!"
Di Xi nodded: "That woman Yao Ji is indeed not that easy to deal with."
"In addition, when my subordinates were sorting out files recently, they discovered that a large formation was sealed underground in Jiangning.
It is unclear what is sealed in the formation, but my subordinates speculate that it is most likely an evil spirit that was damaged in previous battles.
If we can break the seal and take those evil spirits into our own hands, maybe our strength will be even higher." Sima Yi added.
