"Ding!"
The strange bell sound got closer and closer, and the sound became clearer and clearer.
Every time the bell rang.
Everyone's heart skipped a beat.
Unknowingly, he fell into the rhythm of the bell.
"How dare you! How dare he disturb the order of the Yang Realm and kill a living person? Hurry up and stop!"
A berating voice interrupted everyone's thoughts.
He saw that a strange figure had appeared in the middle of the Zhang family's residence.
This figure was dressed in a black official uniform, and there was a horizontal knife at his waist.
He held a black chain in his hand.
For some reason.
Old Minister Zhang felt a fatal pressure from this figure, as if it was his natural enemy.
His subconscious was calling out to him.
"Run! Hurry up and run!"
Chen Xiyi was also panicking.
Even he did not notice this strange figure at all.
It was as if he had suddenly appeared.
Moreover, he discovered that this figure was surrounded by Yin Qi. Clearly, it was not a living person.
Neither of them dared to act rashly.
Suddenly.
The figure frowned and looked at the little ghosts who were committing crimes.
He immediately snorted coldly.
Then, he waved the chain in his hand gently.
He turned into a streak of light and fiercely whipped the bodies of a few little ghosts.
A series of miserable screams came, and the few little ghosts were beaten until their skin was split open.
His soul almost dissipated.
They immediately fled in all directions.
The strange figure sneered.
He immediately used his divine power to capture the few little ghosts.
He swallowed the little ghosts in one gulp.
He revealed an expression of enjoyment.
"Burp."
This burp made everyone's hair stand on end.
"A few little wandering ghosts dare to cause trouble in the world of the living!”
Immediately, his gaze landed on Old Minister Zhang.
The old minister felt his heart palpitate.
He did not dare to act rashly.
The strange figure took out a document from his pocket.
He paused for a moment and sized up Old Minister Zhang.
"Are you Zhang Shunchang from Changping County?"”
Zhang Shunchang was a little confused about the origin of this strange figure.
But he still replied,"I am."”
"Yes, I am. That's right."
The strange figure nodded in satisfaction.
Then, he recited.
"Zhang Shunchang, male. He was born in the first year of Yongye in the Song Dynasty. At the age of twenty-seven, he passed the examination of Jinshi and became a third-grade member of the government. During his tenure, he had a good reputation and outstanding achievements. He had 69 years of life on the Life and Death Book! Today, your lifespan has come to an end. I've specially come to capture souls and go to the Netherworld! Zhang Shunchang, follow me."
Everyone was puzzled.
What was the origin of this strange figure?
What was the Life and Death Book?
Who was the Prefect Lord?
What kind of power was the Netherworld Kingdom?
Who knew that Zhang Shunchang would laugh in disdain.
"What a huge joke, just based on your one-sided words. You want me to surrender? I don't care where you come from, you have to defeat me first.”
Although the scene just now had given him a fright, who was he, Zhang Shunchang?
He was not scared.
The first to strike was the best.
Immediately, dozens of ghost faces appeared and attacked the strange figure.
The strange figure saw Zhang Shunchang attack.
A trace of anger flashed in his eyes.
"How dare you, a little ghost." How dare you openly attack the ghost officers of hell?"
Then. His body trembled.
He swung the chain in his hand and hit the ghost face that was coming at him.
Wherever the chains passed, the ghost faces vanished.
After dispersing Zhang Shunchang's attack, the black chain's momentum did not decrease.
He charged towards Zhang Shunchang. Zhang Shunchang knew the power of his attack. It was so easily resolved that this chain was clearly not an ordinary item.
His eyes were filled with seriousness.
He immediately became extremely careful.
He hurriedly activated a barrier of ghostly power to block this chain.
The strange figure was quite disdainful, and the corners of his mouth curled up slightly.
With just a small malicious ghost, he still dared to resist the Netherworld.
These chains were no ordinary chains. They were Soul Capturing Chains, and they were extremely effective against ghosts.
The soul-capturing chain easily penetrated Zhang Shunchang's ghost power barrier and ruthlessly whipped Zhang Shunchang's body.
A mournful wail was heard as Zhang Shunchang was sent flying by the Soul Binding Chain.
He landed heavily on the ground. The originally solid soul body had become much more illusory at this moment.
It was obvious that this slap had greatly injured his vitality.
His premonition was right.
This strange figure was not something he could fight against.
There was only one thought in his mind, and that was to run!”
As long as there was life, there was hope.
He had to save his own life first. No, his ghost life.
With an idea in mind, Zhang Shunchang did as he said.
It wouldn't be too late to take revenge after he became a ghost general.
He immediately turned into a gust of cold wind and fled out of the Zhang family's residence.
The strange figure also sensed Zhang Shunchang's thoughts and frowned.
If I let you escape, I won't have to stay in the underworld anymore.
He immediately waved the Soul Capturing Chain. The chain grew longer in the wind.
He quickly caught up to Zhang Shunchang and gave him another heavy slap.
He immediately whipped Zhang Shunchang down from the sky and lashed out a few more times. The mournful wails and howls of ghosts and wolves could be heard from afar.
It was exceptionally terrifying.
After a few whips, the originally ferocious Zhang Shunchang was on the verge of death, his soul body already transparent.
No one doubted that another whip would scatter their souls.
Seeing that Zhang Shunchang had lost the ability to resist, the strange figure took a step forward and muttered.
The Soul Capturing Chains immediately bound Zhang Shunchang. He captured him.
The three people at the side were completely dumbfounded. Was this still the incomparably fierce Old Minister Zhang from before?
How could he be captured by this evil spirit without being able to fight back?
Could this evil spirit be a ghost general that was comparable to a Spiritual Mansion Realm Perfected Being?
When they thought of this, the three of them revealed a trace of bitterness on the corners of their mouths. They had just left the wolf's den and entered the tiger's den. How were they going to play?
If it was Zhang Shunchang, they still had a chance.
Now that it was this ghost general, they were completely in despair. They didn't even have the chance to struggle.
Didn't he see that even someone as powerful as Zhang Shunchang was almost killed?
Not to mention them. He might as well wait for death.
The strange figure grabbed the chain and tied it to Zhang Shunchang.
He looked at the weak ghostly figure. He shook his head.
This was the outcome of fighting against the Netherworld Kingdom. If not for the fact that Zhang Shunchang's soul body was a little special and was of great use to him.
He had long been scared out of his wits.
Then, he looked at the three people trembling in the corner with disdain. Were these the cultivators of this world?
How weak.
After completing his mission, he was about to turn around and leave.
The old man stood up shakily.
He bowed to the strange figure and said,""Thank you for saving my life. I am Elder Chen Xiyi of the Gaze Peak Temple.”
The two Dao children beside him were speechless.
This Demon was obviously not interested in them.
They saw that the person was about to leave, no, the ghost was about to leave. Their lives were saved, but you still took the initiative to appear.
What if he didn't like you and killed you?
This was a ghost general!
The strange figure was a little surprised. This person was quite bold.
"What's the matter?" he asked immediately.”
Chen Xiyi cleared his throat.
"First of all, I would like to thank Your Excellency for saving my life. Secondly, I have some questions. I wonder what kind of power is in the Netherworld and what position Your Excellency holds?"”
The strange figure calculated in his heart. This was a good opportunity to make a name for himself in the underworld.
After thinking for a while,
"The netherworld is the place where living people go after death.
In the Yang Realm, there was the imperial court that controlled living people, and in the netherworld, there was naturally the netherworld that controlled ghosts.
After death, one had to return to the underworld and could not stay in the world of the living.
Then, the judge of the underworld would judge their merits and demerits. Whether they were to transcend the mortal world, enter the cycle of reincarnation, or fall into hell and never be reincarnated would be judged by the underworld.
The underworld was ruled by the supreme Son of Heaven Yin.
There were five Ghost Emperors suppressing the four directions.
There were ten kings of hell, ox-headed and horse-faced, and black and white impermanences who could capture souls.
There are millions of nether soldiers to maintain order in the netherworld and to fight against those who don't obey. As for me, I'm just a small low-level Soul Reaper under the jurisdiction of the Impermanence Palace.”
The three of them could not help but suck in a breath of cold air when they heard that. This Netherworld was really terrifying to the extreme.
Let's not talk about the supreme Son of Heaven Yin that he spoke of.
Just the Five Realm Ghost Emperor alone was an extremely terrifying existence.
He could probably destroy a region with one hand, let alone Son of Heaven Yin who could lead the five Ghost Emperors.
On the other hand, if this strange figure could only become the so-called Soul Reaper of the Impermanence Palace with the cultivation of a ghost general, then there would be even more terrifying figures above him.
The three of them didn't dare to think about it carefully. The more they thought about it, the more afraid they became. Why hadn't they heard of such a terrifying force before?
They did not suspect that this strange figure would lie to them. After all, there was no need for the strong to lie to the weak.
It was just that they might not have expected this strange figure to be someone who did not play by the rules.
Seeing that the three of them had been fooled, the strange figure secretly laughed in his heart.
He did not say anything else. After all, only mysterious things were more frightening.
He immediately pulled the chain in his hand. Under the gazes of the three of them, he disappeared in three flashes.
When the three of them saw that the two ghosts had disappeared, they couldn't help but heave a sigh of relief.
The three of them looked at each other. After a series of ups and downs, they were quite happy to have survived a disaster.
However, Chen Xiyi's face was full of seriousness. He was shocked to learn about the existence of the Netherworld from that person.
He felt that the cultivation world of the Song Country would not be peaceful from now on.
Then, he looked at the Zhang family's second master who had fainted on the ground. Chen Xiyi stepped forward and kicked him, spitting a mouthful of phlegm on Zhang Chongjing's face.
"What a scum!"
Immediately after, he felt a piercing pain and sucked in a breath of cold air.
He hurriedly ordered the Daoist child to set off for the mountain. He had to go back and discuss what happened today with the Abbey Dean.
A storm was coming.
