"Ah, forget it. I don't want to think about these things. Let's take it one step at a time. The most important thing now is to make a sweet and sour fish for Little Ink. So I said to Shen Chen, 'Chen, when we arrive at your Realm of the Underworld, let's go straight to the kitchen. It looks like Little Ink is so hungry that he's talking nonsense, complaining that his mom doesn't care about him. Hehe...'
'Yeah, let's go to the kitchen first and use some delicious fish to shut Little Ink's mouth and make him say something nice,' Shen Chen said with a smile, looking indulgently at Little Ink."
"Daddy, Mommy, as long as you make delicious Sweet and Sour Fish for Little Ink, Little Ink will obediently say good things to you every day," Little Ink immediately exclaimed excitedly.
After hearing Little Ink's words, we naturally agreed. Then, the three of us happily arrived at the Realm of the Underworld. It turned out that the place we had previously visited was just the main street before the Realm of the Underworld. The grandeur of the place was beyond words. The ghost soldiers at the gate were all spirited. When they saw a ghost trying to enter the Realm of the Underworld, two of them immediately stepped forward and sternly said, "Stop! What kind of ghost are you? Why do you have such strong yang energy? Are you a sorcerer from the human beings? But whether you are human or ghost, this is the Realm of the Underworld. Without an official summons, you must stop, or you will be killed."
"Waste, I told you to guard faithfully, not to not even recognize Master. Who the hell are you guys, and how do you not even recognize Master? Go, bring your leader here to talk. Master doesn't have time to explain to you." Shen Chen stepped forward angrily, pointing to his own face.
"Master, do you think you're the Dark Lord? Let me tell you, the Dark Lord has been missing for a long time, and now there are many impostors trying to sneak into the Realm of the Underworld. Do you think you're the only one who thought of this method to come in and gain some benefits? Dream on, do you think we are blind?" At this point, the Ghost seat suddenly changed his tone and said, "But things are not absolute. If you show enough respect, we might consider letting you in. But once inside, if you get caught by King of the Underworld is not an adult., don't say we let you in. Oh, I forgot, we don't need to fear King of the Underworld is not an adult. anymore. According to reliable internal sources, King of the Underworld is not an adult. has fallen. Now the Realm of the Underworld is an empty shell. You don't have to worry. Here, only we have the final say. So, tell us, how much resources can you provide to get in? As long as the resources are enough, nothing is a problem."
Upon hearing this, I immediately became angry and wanted to confront these few ghost soldiers, and even considered personally teaching them a lesson. However, I was stopped by Shen Chen, who seemed very interested and calmly said, "Oh, so you need resources. Tell me, what kind of resources do you need? Hell money, or gold and silver currency, or something else?"
"Haha, it seems like you've just arrived here and don't know about this new thing called resources. With this resource, becoming a ghost king is no longer just a dream. Even ordinary spirits can become a ghost king in minutes. If you don't have resources, giving us a sufficient amount of gold and silver currency is also acceptable, just don't give us hell money. Now, there's inflation in the underworld, and no one knows who's in charge. Hell money is just like waste paper. So, we only accept resources and gold and silver currency," said the guarding ghost soldier.
"Oh, so that's how it is. Can you guys tell me what the resource looks like and see if we have it?" Shen Chen asked with some curiosity. I'm actually quite curious too.
"You guys don't even know what the resource is, you're really out of touch. Let me tell you, it's the Magic crystal, a kind of magical stone from the demon world. This thing was originally very common in the demon world, but it was blessed by the Demon Lord. With enough Magic crystals, you can instantly upgrade to the level of a Demon King. It's said to have no side effects, so don't doubt it. We saw one of our brothers instantly upgrade to a Demon King, and he didn't feel any pain. Now that brother of ours is dominating in the underworld," the ghost soldier said in a hushed tone, looking around.
"Originally it's the Magic crystal, but we heard that if the Magic crystal is absorbed by the ghosts of the underworld, it will turn into a demon. You're not deceiving us, are you?" Shen Chen said incredulously.
"It doesn't turn into a demon, it just has to pledge loyalty to the Demon Lord in the future. In fact, we all know the truth now, that the Demon Lord and our Dark Lord are biological twin brothers. So it's no big deal for us to pledge loyalty to the Demon Lord, we all come from the underworld, we're all family, there's no betrayal, right?" the ghost soldier said nonchalantly.
"However, if your Dark Lord were to return, how would you choose? Would you pledge allegiance to the Demon Lord or to the Dark Lord?" I was afraid that Shen Chen would be too embarrassed to ask, so I asked on behalf of Shen Chen.
"It's hard to say. We'll see who can benefit us. After all, we are just guarding. You guys, don't waste our precious time with your dilly-dallying. Do any of you have any gold or silver to show us respect? If not, don't delay our valuable time." The ghost soldier impatiently shouted at me, showing no sign of the tenderness one would expect towards a beautiful woman. It seems that these few are single-mindedly aiming to upgrade to become ghost kings and are not interested in women.
"Hmph, there's no welfare, but there are those who want your lives." Upon hearing this, Shen Chen didn't bother with these ghost soldiers and directly dispersed the talkative gatekeeper ghost with a palm strike, ensuring he could never be reincarnated.
Seeing Shen Chen act so ruthlessly, the other ghost soldiers immediately became furious and shouted, "How dare you, reckless disciple, dare to act so arrogantly in front of our Realm of the Underworld gate, and even kill our brothers. You really don't want to live. Let me tell you, the underworld is in such chaos right now, why is it still very safe within a thousand miles around Realm of the Underworld and Realm of the Underworld? That's because we have the protective formation in Realm of the Underworld. In the underworld, no ghost or human is a match for the protective formation. As long as we activate the killing formation, except for Dark Lord and those protected by Dark Lord, all will be scattered souls. Come, let's activate the killing formation and avenge our brothers."
"Is that so? Then I'd like to see how your activated killing formation will kill Master." After a cold laugh from Shen Chen, he didn't rush to eliminate the remaining traitors.
"Such arrogance from the human beings, thinking they are the Dark Lord even at the brink of death. Let me tell you, even if Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva himself comes, this protective formation will still be unfailing. You think you're powerful in the human realm, but can you still be powerful in the Realm of the Underworld? Dream on. See that? When the light of this formation shines on you, you will regret it, hehe..." Amidst the wild laughter of the ghost soldiers, I saw countless beams of light surging out from the gates of the Realm of the Underworld towards the three of us.
I'm a little scared, so I pulled Shen Chen and whispered to him, "Don't forget to protect me and Little Ink. I'll be fine, but Little Ink can't afford to be in danger."
"Woman, don't worry. With me here, nothing will happen to you guys," said Shen Chen as he pulled Little Ink into his arms. At that moment, the light shone on us, and although it looked fierce, it felt warm and comforting.
We three were illuminated by these lights, and yet we were unharmed, even laughing and talking. The ghost soldiers were dumbfounded for a while, and it took them a long time to recover. They immediately knelt down and begged, "Dark Lord, please forgive us. We really didn't know that you had returned. If we had known, even if we had ten times the courage, we wouldn't have dared to act this way towards you. Please spare us. We have elderly and young dependents. We can't die like this. We're sorry, Dark Lord. We won't dare to do it again."
"Dead? You seem to have died a long time ago, so how can you have elderly and young dependents? You're already dead, right? So you're still dead." At this point, I spoke for Shen Chen, then used Gui Li to directly kill one of the ghost soldiers. Before I could make another move, Shen Chen waved his hand, and all the remaining traitors who had just appeared were together, none of them escaped, and all of them perished.
Of course, not everyone is a traitor. Whether in the human realm or the underworld, there are always some loyal people or ghosts. So there are also some loyal ghosts here, but they are arranged in the most remote corner and are even chained up, not allowed to move. This time, those traitors were cleared out and immediately released by Shen Chen. After these ghosts were rescued, they immediately ran up in an orderly manner to pay their respects to Shen Chen.
The matter of the gatekeeper was resolved, and we began to enter the Realm of the Underworld. Fortunately, the surface of the Realm of the Underworld still looks good. Most of the ghosts know Shen Chen and when they saw Shen Chen return, many senior-level ghosts were overjoyed and cried out that the underworld was saved. They also advised Shen Chen not to act impulsively in the future, and not to be stubborn for the sake of a woman.
What does this mean? It seems like it's talking about me. My face immediately turned ugly. Shen Chen also noticed this and immediately pulled me out, loudly saying to those senior ghosts, "No nonsense. Master didn't come here for nothing. It's Master who found your Queen of the Underworld. This is your Queen of the Underworld, Yuan Yuan."
"What? That witch has been found? Dark Lord, she's a witch, the former supreme female son of the demon world. How can you really bring her back? Oh my god, it looks like there will be another bloody storm. The chaos of the underworld is imminent. Dark Lord, if you still can't do it, we will act on your behalf again." One of the senior elders said resentfully.
"You dare, Master knows the truth about what happened back then. It was a deliberate act by you elders. Originally, when Master returned this time, out of consideration for your role in the underworld, he didn't want to pursue it further. But now you still show no remorse, do you want to commit sins again? Master has given up the position of Dark Lord for twenty-four years in exchange for Yuan Yuan's rebirth. If you dare to harm her again, His Excellency will subject you to various underworld tortures before dispersing your souls. Shen Chen hugged me in shock and said."
