"I didn't know that Emperor Huangquan was here. I offended you a lot just now. My dear, Cui Ruyin, I hope that the Emperor will open his eyes for the sake of my ancestors."
The white-haired boy spoke, breaking the dullness, his voice was clear and shocked the world.
"Ancestor of the Cui family? Humph! Today's Criminal Law Department is full of chaos and constant strife. It was all destroyed by you dirty people. Even sacred artifacts such as the Netherworld Plate cannot be saved. If I don't have something important to do, I would go there.
Ask Cui Zhenkong if he really plans to hand over the Criminal Law Department."
That deep voice sounded, carrying a compelling power.
Cui Zhenkong!
The ancestor of the Cui family is a powerful person who lives in seclusion. It is because of his presence that the Cui family can still firmly control the criminal law department of the underworld despite the endless internal fighting.
That voice dared to call Cui Zhenkong's name so directly, which made Cui Ruyin and others more and more certain that the other party must be Qi Shanhe, the Great Emperor of Huangquan!
Because of this, everyone seemed to be even more silent and did not dare to move.
"Get lost! Disappear in the underworld immediately!" The deep voice sounded again.
"Great Emperor, this woman is..." the white-haired boy Cui Ruyin said bravely.
puff!
With a muffled sound, another strong Earth Immortal exploded and died on the spot. This was a warning that anyone who was not a fool could understand.
Cui Ruyin did not dare to hesitate any longer, glared at Bei Ling fiercely, led the others, tore open the void, and left in a hurry.
Seeing this, Bei Ling breathed a sigh of relief and said respectfully: "Thank you, senior, for rescuing the siege. I can't thank you enough."
"Hmph! I have no intention of saving you, huh?"
The deep voice snorted coldly, and then disappeared as if it had sensed something.
Tsk!
At this moment, the void shattered, and Chen Xi's majestic figure emerged. Seeing that Bei Ling was safe and sound, he couldn't help but breathed a sigh of relief and said, "What happened before? Why did you crush the letter talisman?"
As he spoke, he glanced around and saw two pools of blood on the ground, and there was a smell of blood floating in the air, and he couldn't help but frown.
Apparently, two people had died here before.
Bei Ling gathered his thoughts and told everything that had happened before.
It turned out that just at noon today, she was practicing at Cui's secret stronghold in Luohu City, but unexpectedly someone broke in and threatened to arrest Cui Qingning.
She did not dare to hesitate and immediately fled with Cui Qingning, but unfortunately she was stopped here.
Because the opponent was too strong, she had no choice but to crush the letter talisman, and then Emperor Huangquan took action to drive away Cui Ruyin and others...
"Emperor Huangquan?"
Chen Xi felt a chill in his heart. He did not expect that this incident would actually involve such a high-ranking figure.
"Where is Miss Cui?" Chen Xi asked.
"I'll hide her in the treasure and she'll be fine for the time being."
Bei Ling replied, and then she frowned, "However, I have some doubts about whether something unexpected happened to Gu Tian. If not, how could Cui Ruyin and others come to the door first?"
Chen Xi sighed softly and said: "I have also thought of this, but there are still seven days left before the ten-day appointment. Let's wait a little longer. I hope that Brother Gu will never encounter any unexpected events...
…”
"What if something unexpected happens to him?" Beiling couldn't help but ask.
"Then I will take Miss Cui to the Kingdom of Six Paths."
Chen Xi replied without hesitation, "Whether it is to repay my kindness or to get clues about the Netherworld Disk, I must do this."
Beiling nodded.
Seeing this, Chen Xi couldn't help but said: "What about you? Are you still planning to pretend to be my maid and come with me?"
Belling asked, "Why not?"
This woman, who is as cold as ice, is always unpredictable.
However, Chen Xi was too lazy to guess. The appearance of Cui Ruyin and others, whose life and death had been uncertain for a long time, had already made him smell an inexplicable murderous intention, and he had no time to worry about anything else.
"These are four Bianhua flowers. Just accept them as your reward for being a maid." Chen Xi thought for a while and handed the remaining four fruits to Bei Ling.
Bei Ling was obviously startled, and stared at Chen Xi for a long time, but finally accepted it, "Thank you, I will always play my role well."
Hearing such an answer, Chen Xi couldn't help but feel dumb. He had never thought about keeping Bei Ling with him. After all, he did not belong to the Netherworld. After retrieving Qing Xiuyi, he would leave immediately.
"The fire from the sky shines, and the other shore comes to this world. My little friend, you are the first person I have seen in thousands of years to achieve the perfection of the road to the other shore."
Suddenly, that deep voice sounded again between heaven and earth.
Following the sound, an old man as skinny as bamboo, dressed in black, came with his hands behind his back and his feet in the air. His face was stern, his eyes were as deep as abyss, his aura was plain, but he had a breathtaking aura.
It is a kind of temperament that looks through illusions and returns to nature. It is not shocking, but it is impossible to guess how high his cultivation level has reached.
Emperor Huangquan!
When they saw this person's appearance, Bei Ling and Chen Xi immediately guessed the other person's identity. They were both a little surprised and couldn't figure out why the other person came.
Especially Chen Xi, who killed many people from the Underworld Palace three days ago. Now facing the supreme master of the Underworld Palace, he felt a little nervous.
"As far as I know, it is impossible to reach the perfection of the meaning of the other side of the world by relying solely on the fruit of the other side of the flower. May I ask, little friend, where did you realize the meaning of the other side of the road?"
Although Emperor Huang Quan's voice is plain, every word and every move carries a power that directly touches people's hearts, making people want to bow down and worship him.
This is a more terrifying momentum. It can affect the minds and souls of others with its own magnanimity, which is extremely terrifying.
"Reporting back to the seniors, the juniors also learned it accidentally." Chen Xi took a deep breath and said.
"you are lying!"
Emperor Huang Quan's eyes opened and closed, like lightning radiating, falling coldly on Chen Xi, as if he wanted to see everything inside and outside him.
Under the gaze of such eyes, Chen Xi felt his whole body stiffen and felt a huge spiritual pressure. If his Taoist cultivation had not reached the level of "heart and soul", he might not be able to bear it in an instant, so he obediently admitted it.
.
As if he didn't expect Chen Xi to be able to withstand it, Emperor Huangquan couldn't help but have a look of surprise in his eyes, and then he looked away and said: "Don't worry, even though you killed a few of my subordinates who were incompetent, but they
The person who died was not unjust, and I will not embarrass you because of this."
As soon as these words came out, Chen Xi's heart felt ripples again, and he was secretly surprised. He never expected that what he did in Luohu Canyon would have been known to the other party.
"wrong."
The next moment, Emperor Huangquan seemed to realize something. He raised his head again and suddenly cast his gaze on Chen Xi, as if examining an unknown artifact. Sometimes he frowned, sometimes pondered, and sometimes was surprised...
It wasn't until a long time later that his expression returned to calm.
During this process, Chen Xi's breathing almost stopped. There was no way he could do it. The pressure the other party put on him was too great. It was even more heart-wrenching and uncomfortable than when facing a Mystic Immortal-level powerhouse like Liang Bing.
From this, he also vaguely judged that the opponent's strength was definitely no less than that of a Xuanxian-level powerhouse!
This made him feel a little heavy. When it comes to the strength of the power, the Criminal Law Department controlled by the Cui family is not inferior to the Huangquan Palace controlled by the Huangquan Emperor.
So how strong should the cultivation level of the "chief chief" of the Criminal Law Department be?
As for the "big boss" of the Evil Ghost Department, Hell Department, and Shura Department, are they equally powerful?
Chen Xi knew very well that if he wanted to find clues to the Netherworld Disk, he would inevitably have to avoid the big forces in the Netherworld Underworld. If he wanted to rescue Qing Xiuyi, he might even have to fight with people of the same level as Emperor Huangquan and the Chief Secretary.
There is a dispute.
In that case, his advantage will be gone.
Fortunately, he is not alone and can still rely on Xiaoding's power.
Thinking of this, Chen Xi felt much more at ease.
"This is my Huangquan Order. If necessary, I can save you once."
Suddenly, Emperor Huangquan spoke, raised his hand and flicked a token towards Chen Xi. Then, after giving Chen Xi a deep look, he turned around and left.
"I hope I didn't misjudge the person."
These were the last words left by Emperor Huang Quan when he disappeared.
All of this made Chen Xi confused and confused, so he was a little stunned. The token clearly told him that all of this was true.
The token is only the size of a palm, and is as smooth as mutton-fat jade. It feels warm and cool to the touch. A divine rainbow across the sky emerges on its surface, burning like a fire, and it is a road illuminated by fire.
On the back of the token, there are only three ancient handwritings written by Qingjun Feixi - Qishanhe!
Obviously, this is the name of Emperor Huangquan.
"He seems to have discovered something unusual about you." Bei Ling glanced at Chen Xi, a flash of extraordinary light flashing in his eyes.
"Anyway, it can't be a bad thing." Chen Xi took a long breath and put the token away carefully.
He could also feel that the other party seemed to have discovered some secrets in him, but he was not sure what they were. There was no way, there were too many secrets in him.
Things like the Netherworld Record, the Evil-Destroying Pen, the Hetu Fragments, your destiny that is hidden by heaven, and the existence of Xiaoding, all of them may be one of the objects that the other party detects.
However, it seems that the other party has no ill intentions, and Chen Xi will not speculate too much. Some things can be understood when they need to be understood. When you can't understand, no matter how much you think about it, it is useless.
"Let's go back to Luohu City. If Brother Gu has not come back after seven days, we will set off to the Kingdom of Six Paths."
Chen Xi no longer hesitated, took Bei Ling with him, and disappeared in a flash.
Although it was only seven days, it was enough for him to completely restore his cultivation to its peak state. By then, he could deal with most dangers even without the help of Xiaoding's power.
In addition, the token given by Emperor Huangquan gave him more confidence in going to the Six Paths Kingdom to search for clues to the Netherworld Disk.
