Chapter 235 Fengdu City
Chapter 235 Fengdu City
Fortunately, this place was close enough to Fengdu City. After looking around, Li Deyang felt a mysterious guidance and silently walked in one direction.
Lin Qiye's eyes lit up with surprise, and he quickened his pace to catch up.
After walking for a while, the group saw many ancient camp buildings.
Lin Qiye's face was already smiling. Sure enough, once they got here, all they had to do was follow Li Deyang.
The group passed through the ancient camp and soon saw a towering gate.
This is an ancient and solemn gate, exuding a strong sense of antiquity, its majestic grandeur inspiring awe. Three characters are faintly visible on the gate, but due to the passage of time and the erosion of wind and frost, the characters have become blurred and illegible, making it difficult to discern their content.
The group didn't pay any attention. Just as they reached the door, the door, which had been tightly closed, began to slowly open by itself!
Several people looked up at the same time, and as the crack in the door gradually widened, a woman dressed in a bright red wedding gown and with exquisite phoenix makeup slowly peeked half of her body out from inside the door.
A strange smile graced her beautiful face as she grinned at the crowd outside the door, as if welcoming them, yet a chill ran down one's spine.
Without hesitation, Wang Ye drew his sword and was about to step forward when Ling Yunxiao, whose face was equally grim, grabbed his shoulder.
"Young Prince, listen to my advice. Don't touch anything here. No matter what you see, don't do anything. Just look at it."
Except for Wang Ye, everyone else knew Li Deyang's identity, so even though they were startled by the mysterious peeking, no one made a move.
"Why aren't you making a move yet?"
Li Deyang had no memory of it at this moment. He was walking at the front and was the one who was most frightened by the ghost bride.
Wang Ye had given him a strong sense of security, but just as Wang Ye was about to make a move, Ling Yunxiao stopped him.
Li Deyang was quite taken aback, but what shocked him was what happened next when he spoke.
The alluring ghost bride inside the door actually opened the door directly and then knelt down respectfully in front of everyone.
"what's the situation?"
Li Deyang was a little confused, so he asked his question.
Lin Qiye couldn't wait to go in, so he smiled and looked at Li Deyang.
"Uncle Li, don't worry, the Divine Ruins in Yunxiao are the Six Paths of Reincarnation. Walking here is almost like coming home. Let's go!"
"What is the connection between this place and his divine ruins?"
Li Deyang still didn't understand, but this time he didn't ask a question; he just muttered something under his breath.
After all, this was the place the team insisted on coming to, and he was just leading the way. Although he had a strange feeling that he wanted to go in, he wouldn't say it and delay everyone.
As Lin Qiye entered Fengdu City, he quickened his pace. After a few turns, he had already left the others far behind.
"Let him go by himself! It's already quite good that he's held back until now."
Ling Yunxiao stopped the group that wanted to follow, and shook his head with a smile.
"Let's go! We still need to visit the main hall."
As Ling Yunxiao spoke, he pointed to the largest building not far away.
The group continued on their way, passing by the Viewing Platform, the Bridge of Helplessness, the Coroner's Hall, the Hall of Impermanence, the Hall of the Ghost King, and the City of the Wrongfully Dead...
Finally, the group arrived at the largest palace. The palace doors opened automatically, and a chilling wind blew up.
Except for Li Deyang, the others all looked relaxed. Having come this far, they all knew where they were.
Even if Wang Ye didn't know Li Deyang's identity, he had no defenses or resistance towards this place. After all, he himself was wearing the robes of a ghost messenger from the underworld.
Li Deyang's expression was very complicated at this moment. He slowly walked into the main hall and approached the throne. A tattered blood-red imperial robe flew out and landed directly in front of Li Deyang.
Li Deyang sighed, his mind filled with a myriad of thoughts. He still had his elderly father, wife, and daughter; he still wanted to be a night watchman in Anta County…
"Your Majesty, don't hesitate, listen carefully to the sounds here..."
Ling Yunxiao's gaze swept around. There were too many remnant souls and lonely ghosts here, quietly guarding this place, just waiting for the return of the Fengdu Emperor.
As soon as Ling Yunxiao finished speaking, the group simultaneously concealed their auras. The trembling ghosts around them immediately sensed the aura of the Fengdu Emperor, and their cries, laughter, and prayers filled Li Deyang's ears.
"Great Emperor... Yes, I am the Great Emperor of Fengdu..."
As Li Deyang finished speaking, the tattered imperial robe emitted a burst of light, which then fell upon Li Deyang, and his aura rapidly changed...
After becoming the Emperor of Fengdu, Li Deyang looked at the devastated city of Fengdu with a sorrowful and heavy expression.
Ling Yunxiao looked at Li Deyang with a smile and took two steps forward.
"Congratulations on your return, Your Majesty! I have a great gift for you, and I hope you will accept it with joy."
As soon as Ling Yunxiao finished speaking, he flicked his wrist and wrote out four characters.
"Living towards death"
"Roar……"
"I'm back……"
"Hahaha...I've actually been resurrected..."
Emperor Fengdu looked up in astonishment as figures emerged from the broken magical artifacts in the corner, then materialized and were resurrected by Ling Yunxiao, standing in the same spot.
Ten Kings of Hell, the Ghosts of the Underworld, the Four Judges, the Ten Kings of Hell...
One by one, familiar figures came into the eyes of the Emperor of Fengdu. This god, who had never frowned even when he died in battle, gradually...
Eyes red.
He clasped his hands in a fist salute to Ling Yunxiao and bowed deeply.
"Thank you so much... The entire city of Fengdu will be eternally grateful for your kindness today and will remember it forever..."
"No matter when, where, or what, as long as you give the order, we will do our utmost, even at the cost of our lives..."
The Emperor of Fengdu raised his head, and everyone stood behind him one after another. After bowing respectfully to Ling Yunxiao, they expressed their gratitude in unison.
"No need to be so polite, I have an even bigger gift here!"
Ling Yunxiao smiled gently and humbly, slightly shifting his body to avoid the crowd's bows. With a stroke of his judge's pen, he wrote another line of text:
"Reincarnation and longing for home, past and present lives"
The red spider lilies bloomed at everyone's feet, and the four great underworld officials of the primordial world appeared. Looking at the weakened underworld people, they actually turned around and bowed to Ling Yunxiao.
"Master, thank you for rebuilding this realm of the underworld. You have worked hard. Regarding the restoration of your magical power, I will discuss with the Book of Life and Death later to waive your handling fee."
As Zhong Kui finished speaking, the phantom of Fengdu City appeared in the sea of red spider lilies. On the platform overlooking the homeland, bursts of light shone, and beams of light flew out from the mirror, landing on the Fengdu Emperor and the gods behind him.
Just then, dark clouds gathered in the sky, thunder rumbled, and a jet-black arm reached out.
"Oh! I forgot, there's someone who can reimburse my expenses for today..."
