Chapter 315 Too Destructive
Chapter 315 Too Destructive
Yunyi listened with great interest, happily cracking sunflower seeds. After all, she was a human now and couldn't go to the underworld for no reason, so seeing the liveliness of the underworld was quite a rare treat.
In fact, she understood what Ox-Head and Horse-Face were saying. After the formation of Hell, Ziwei Star Lord personally transformed into the Fengdu Emperor to manage the underworld. However, he could not do everything personally, so he divided the underworld into five Ghost Emperors, and then into ten Yama Palaces.
These are all elected through elections.
Yunyi didn't witness the grand election, but the Night Wanderer had mentioned to her that the scene was spectacular, with every ghost who died a natural death getting a vote.
The entire Fengdu Square was absolutely a scene of colorful flags waving and ghosts flying everywhere.
Moreover, in order to win votes, the candidates used all sorts of tricks. Some promised houses, some promised money, some promised to help people be reborn into a better family, and some even claimed that if you voted for him, you wouldn't have to drink Meng Po's soup when crossing the Bridge of Helplessness.
In short, it was incredibly lively.
Under these circumstances, the Heavenly Court directly sent down two Heavenly Officials: King Qin Guang of the First Court and King Chu Jiang of the Second Court.
Although these ten Yama Kings are not explicitly ranked, everyone knows that the First Hall is the leader.
The other eight Yama Kings in the main halls hadn't done anything yet, but King Chujiang, who had come with them, was already feeling resentful.
Jealousy is something that not only humans have, but even ghosts can have it.
As for how the Heavenly Court arranged things between the two of them, the ghosts in the underworld didn't know. Yunyi had also been to the Ninth Heaven before, but back then, her mission didn't involve this aspect. In other words, she had never been in contact with the Heavenly Personnel Bureau, so she didn't know about the grudges involved.
Although she has familiar immortals in the celestial realm, her current abilities allow her to open the Gate of Hell, but not the South Heavenly Gate. Unless someone comes to take her up, she cannot contact them and therefore cannot understand the whole story of this gossip.
Just then, another dark figure flew out from the invisible gate of hell.
Yunyi quickly dodged to the side.
Although ghosts don't have a physical form and can't hit her, it's still quite scary, like watching a 3D movie where a plane crashes down on you.
"Ghost Boss? Waaah, it really is you..." Little Fish Gills cried out as soon as she saw Yun Yi, "I was just cursing those two, but now I have to thank them, otherwise I would never have seen you, Boss."
Yunyi raised her hand and slapped him: "Alright, little fish, stop howling, it hurts."
"Then let me give you a massage. My technique is really good, I..." Fish Gill may be a big male fish, but its voice and figure are even more alluring than Huang Tian'er's female bee.
"Let's keep quiet for a while," Yunyi pinched the bridge of her nose. "Let's see who else gets caught up in this, and see if we can gather enough people to play a round of Gouji."
(Gouji is a popular card game in Shandong province that requires six players.)
"Hey boss, you guys could actually play Guandan now." Sixteen had somehow joined in, his wolf head resting near Yunyi's feet. "Of course, if you'd allow me to lick the cards with my tongue, I could also play Baohuang with you."
(Protect the Emperor is a poker game played by five people.)
Yunyi reached out and patted Sixteen's head: "Playing with things will only distract you from your studies. You should take a break."
Sixteen could only shut up, and then the three ghosts—one human, one wolf, and one ghost—squatted together, cracking sunflower seeds while staring at the ghost gate in the void.
They weren't disappointed, and soon another ghost was shaken out.
"I went out during the day, what's with throwing me out like this in the middle of the night?" The Day Wanderer flipped in the air and was about to go back when he saw the Ghost Wolf trio watching the commotion. He rushed down and said, "Ghost Boss, hurry up and go in and stop them. If they keep fighting, the entire Yellow Springs will be ruined by those two."
“I’m not going.” Yunyi shook her head. “I’m a human, and they’re ghosts. Anyway, we can’t kill ghosts, so let them fight us.”
"But boss, if they keep fighting like this, we'll be the ones who suffer." The Day Wanderer leaned closer to Yunyi. "Can you bear to see us all homeless?"
"Have you ever thought about why only a few of you were shaken out? Look at the Night Wanderer, look at the Impermanence, they're all fine, aren't they? This only proves that you're all too incompetent. So, go back and study hard..."
Before the words were even finished, the ones that had been pointed out earlier flew out one after another, followed by some other little ghosts. Some of their souls even looked unstable, and another blow would send them flying into oblivion.
Yunyi: ...
Day Wanderer spread his hands: "Boss Ghost, it's not that we're incompetent, it's just that those two are too destructive."
Huang Tian'er, who was standing next to her, nodded vigorously in agreement.
Yunyi slapped her forehead: "But it's almost dawn now. If I go in, they..."
"Can we keep an eye on them for you? We'll make sure they're safe." Night Wanderer raised his hand in agreement.
"Come on, if you stayed with them for two days, wouldn't they be in deep trouble?"
"You damned boss, I can keep an eye on them." Huang Tian'er reverted to her original form, flapped her wings, and flew around Yun Yi's head once. "I guarantee that no one will dare to harm them."
“And me.” Leopard Tail stepped forward. “There are many wild beasts in these mountains, and their souls are all under my control.”
Yunyi stood up and brushed off some crumbs that had gotten on her from eating sunflower seeds. "In that case, I'll go in and take a look." She then sat down cross-legged again, closed her eyes, and soon her soul left her body.
The Night Wanderer took the lead and led the way back to the Gates of Hell.
Just as Yunyi entered the gates of hell, an object flew towards her, startling her so much that she hurriedly dodged to the side. However, the bull-headed creature that followed her in couldn't dodge it, and with a loud thud, the bull-headed creature was smashed down.
The horse-faced demon hurriedly went over and retrieved the bull's head, helping to place it back on his friend's shoulder.
"It's upside down," Little Fish pointed out.
"Sorry, brother, I wasn't paying attention just now." Horse-face hurriedly picked up the bull's head and put it in a different position.
Bull Head then moved his head and said, "Thanks, brother."
Yunyi's lips twitched, but she didn't have the energy to pay attention to them anymore, because where was the eeriness of the Yellow Springs Road around here? It was simply a dilapidated market, and many of the spider lilies had been ruined. She reached out and pulled out her whip, rushing towards the two shadows that were flying back and forth in the distance.
The two were locked in a fierce fight when suddenly they felt a sharp, eerie wind sweep past, accompanied by the sound of silver bells. They instantly sensed something was wrong, but it was too late to dodge. They could only take the blow head-on and couldn't help but shout, "Who dares to hurt us?"
