"Not bad, right? I only stabbed you a dozen times earlier. Now, I'm going to slice open the sheepskin scroll. This treasure of mine should be able to slice it open easily, right? " Lin Feng sneered.
After hearing Lin Feng's words, the sheepskin scroll shrieked in fright, "Spare me, spare me, please spare me!"
This fellow had been very stubborn before, even daring to threaten Lin Feng.
Now, however, Lin Feng had scared it to death.
"Why aren't you ordering the skeleton army to leave?" Lin Feng said coldly.
"Alright, alright, alright. I'll order the skeleton army to leave now!"
The sheepskin scroll hurriedly said.
Next, the sheepskin scroll let out a series of strange cries.
After hearing the strange cry of the sheepskin scroll, the densely packed skeleton army entered the cracked earth.
Then, the ground closed.
Peace returned to the Plains of Death.
"Now, can you tell me why you schemed against me?" Lin Feng asked.
The sheepskin scroll said, "It's because I wanted to escort this wooden coffin to Hell on your behalf and receive the reward on your behalf!"
If an Underworld Envoy had said this, Lin Feng might have believed it. However, when it came from the sheepskin scroll, he did not believe it at all. The sheepskin scroll was very strange, and he was hiding many secrets. Of course, the most important thing was that the sheepskin scroll was very dishonest. There was no truth in his words.
Lin Feng sneered. "To be honest, if I hear this again, I don't mind destroying you!"
The sheepskin scroll suddenly fell silent. It seemed to be weighing the pros and cons.
In the end, it said, "I was ordered by that lord to steal the wooden coffin on the way. Someone will receive me outside Hell!"
"The person who gave me the mission? Who is he? " Lin Feng asked in a low voice.
"That lord is a mysterious existence in Hell. I don't know where he came from. I only know that others call him Lord Prison Keeper!"
The sheepskin scroll said.
Lin Feng couldn't help but frown slightly. He felt that when he accepted this person's mission, he had already been tricked.
Of course, the Prison Keeper's target might not be him.
He was just a tool he found to escort the wooden coffin.
The person who was really escorting the wooden coffin was actually the sheepskin scroll.
The sheepskin scroll continued, "I've heard that this Lord Prison Warden would often trick some of the Yang Realm's Underworld Envoys. He would get the Yang Realm's Underworld Envoys to escort some items to deceive the public. Then, along the way, the Lord Prison Warden's men would eliminate the Yang Realm's Underworld Envoys and take over the task. In the end, these items would not be delivered to the destination. Instead, they would be sent to somewhere else. When the Underworld asks for an explanation, the Lord Prison Warden can also say that the Underworld Envoys failed to escort the items and caused them to be stolen!"
"Isn't this the same as how you schemed against me back then?" Lin Feng sneered.
The parchment smiled embarrassedly and said, "It is said that the Prison Keeper is related to a mysterious force, but I don't know what kind of force it is!"
"Isn't he from Hell?" Lin Feng asked.
The parchment scroll said, "There's a saying that goes, 'eat one's while betraying another' …"
Lin Feng and Daoist Wu Liang could not help but roll their eyes. The parchment scroll really knew how to use words.
Clearly, its meaning was very clear.
It wanted to say that the Prison Keeper was very likely to be in cahoots with some outside force.
"Don't the Underworld's upper echelons know about this?" Daoist Wu Liang asked.
"Of course not. This matter is very secretive, and I only found out about it by chance. If the Underworld's upper echelons knew about this, how could they tolerate this person?" The parchment scroll said.
Lin Feng asked, "Then do you know what's sealed in the wooden coffin?"
The sheepskin scroll said, "I'm not sure about that, but the Prison Warden, no, the Prison Warden warned me not to open the coffin, because it contains a peerless terror. Once I open the coffin, I will be doomed eternally. Moreover, this coffin is said to be sent to hell to be destroyed!"
"Destroyed coffin? Is it to destroy the thing inside the coffin? " Lin Feng could not help but ask.
The parchment scroll said, "That's right! It's to destroy what's inside! "
"Open it and take a look?" Lin Feng looked at Daoist Wu Liang.
Daoist Wu Liang nodded.
* Whoosh whoosh whoosh whoosh … *
At that moment, a gust of wind swept through the area.
Boundless ghostly qi surged.
Amidst the ghostly qi, a mysterious existence shrouded in a black robe walked over step by step.
"Did the Prison Keeper send a useless person like you to escort the wooden coffin? I'm so disappointed … "
Amidst the ghostly qi, a mysterious man walked over step by step. The man was wearing a long black robe.
He was abnormally handsome.
"Qin … Qin …"
Upon seeing this person, the parchment scroll cried out in horror, as if it wanted to call out a name.
However, the parchment scroll did not have the courage to call out that name.
This existence before them must have an extremely heaven-defying origin. Otherwise, the parchment scroll would not be so frightened.
"You two ants almost ruined my plan!"
The terrifying cultivator looked coldly at Lin Feng and Daoist Wu Liang.
When their gazes met, Lin Feng felt as if he had fallen into a boundless purgatory.
His body and soul were trembling.
This made Lin Feng feel a sense of disbelief. What kind of existence was this cultivator in front of them?
A single look from him was enough to make him feel so terrified.
It was truly inconceivable.
"Looks like I guessed right. That person's corpse is inside the wooden coffin …" Daoist Wu Liang said.
"Hmm?"
The mysterious existence revealed an astonished expression after hearing Daoist Wu Liang's words.
Then, his expression became extremely cold. "How could a mere Yang Realm Underworld Envoy know about this?"
"Hehe …"
Daoist Wu Liang laughed strangely, then said, "It's a secret discovered after excavating an ancient tomb!"
"Then take this secret with you and die …" The terrifying cultivator attacked, sending a palm strike toward Daoist Wu Liang.
He wanted to kill Daoist Wu Liang.
At this moment, Daoist Wu Liang shouted, "I'll stop him. Hurry up and open the coffin …"
"Okay …"
Lin Feng nodded and began to break the seal on the wooden coffin.
Daoist Wu Liang took out a defensive magic treasure. It was a seal that was surrounded by boundless divine light, protecting him.
However, the mysterious existence was too powerful. It instantly destroyed Daoist Wu Liang's magic treasure.
Then, the palm strike landed on Daoist Wu Liang's body.
Crack … Crack … Crack …
Countless bones in Daoist Wu Liang's body were broken.
His entire body was sent flying.
With a thump, he fell to the ground, his body twitching.
