Hearing SongZhong's words, Spectral Soul Demon Emperor frowned and asked, "Speak, what is going on?"
"Oh, it's like this …" Seeing his father's unfriendly expression, Prince You Hun did not dare to hide anything. He told his father through telepathy that he had killed Song Zhong's butler and the Thunderbirds.
Hearing this, the Demon Emperor was so angry that he rolled his eyes and wanted to slap him. He thought to himself, Can't you save me some trouble? Song Zhong is so famous that he has turned the World of Cultivation into a mess. So many super sects do not dare to offend him. Why did you kill his people for no reason? Fortunately, I heard the news and came here personally. If I did not come and only sent someone to deliver the message, I'm afraid you would be dead today!
Since the Demon Emperor knew that he was in the wrong, there was nothing he could do. He could only smile apologetically and say, "Oh, I see. If that's the case, it's my son's fault! Hurry up and apologize to my friend! "
Although Prince You Hun was unwilling to do so, he could not disobey his father's order. He could only cup his hands and say, "I was wrong this time, I'm sorry!"
Since Prince You Hun had already apologized, SongZhong could only nod his head reluctantly, "Since you killed my butler, I will kill your guards. Together with the face of the Devil Emperor, this matter can be settled!"
SongZhong's words made Spectral Soul Demon Emperor extremely depressed. The guards he had assigned to his son were not ordinary guards, but the eight Demon Generals under his command. They had followed him for tens of thousands of years, and their strength was at the 6th Tribulation Loose Immortal level. How could a Level-7 old tortoise compare to them?
However, he was in the wrong this time. Moreover, Song Zhong was not someone to be trifled with. He had no choice but to swallow his anger. Otherwise, if he could escape unscathed today, his son would never be able to leave the Ninth Serenity Hell in the future. Once his son left the Ninth Serenity Hell, he would most likely be killed, unless he, the Demon Emperor, could follow him every day.
Thinking of this, the Demon Emperor sighed helplessly. Then, he pulled himself together and said, "If that's the case, let's forget about this matter! I still have something important to do, so I'll take my leave now! "After saying that, the Ghost Demon Emperor was about to leave with his son.
However, Song Zhong suddenly shouted, "Your Majesty, please wait!"
"What? Is there anything else, Fellow Daoist? "Ghost Demon Emperor asked with a frown. At this moment, Ghost Demon Emperor was getting impatient. He sneered inwardly and thought, "With my high status, I'm already giving you face by letting my son apologize to you. Don't tell me you want me to compensate you? If you really want to bully me like this, this old man would rather fight it out with you than let you have your way. '
However, out of the Spectral Soul Demon Emperor's expectations, SongZhong did not want him to compensate for the loss of the palace. Instead, he said calmly, "Lord Spectral Soul Demon Emperor, we have already settled the matter of my housekeeper. However, don't you think it's time for me to return my friend who was taken away? "
Ghost Demon Emperor frowned when he heard that. He asked his son impatiently, "Who did you kidnap from him?"
"I didn't?" Prince Ghost hurriedly said with an innocent face, "I really didn't kidnap anyone."
"Really?" As SongZhong heard that, he raged, "Then tell me, all of my sister Lei Shan 'er's subordinates were killed by you, but she is the only one who is missing. Where did she go?"
Prince Ghost immediately said, "I'm innocent, I didn't see her when I went there! Wasn't she taken away by the Celestial Phoenix Maiden? So many people saw her at that time? "
"Hmm? Is that so? " As SongZhong heard that, he immediately asked in doubt, "Strange, why didn't I have this in my intelligence?"
As he said that, SongZhong immediately realised that something was amiss. Ghost Demon Emperor was stunned for a moment, then he said with displeasure, "Your Majesty, you didn't even know the situation before coming to kill them. Isn't this too hasty?"
Song Zhong glanced at Ghost Demon Emperor and didn't answer his question. Instead, he asked calmly, "Your Majesty, the Ninth Nether Hell is quite far from here! Why did you suddenly appear in this godforsaken place? It's as if you're here to save your son! "
"Nonsense, of course I'm here to save him!" Ghost Demon Emperor cursed angrily at first, but then he suddenly realized something. His expression changed, and he seemed to be thinking about something.
"Is that so?" As SongZhong heard that, he replied with a smile, "This is going to be fun. I don't remember Sir Devil Emperor knowing Xiantian Divination. Then where did you get the news that I'm going to harm your son? "
"An anonymous letter, revealing that my unfilial son provoked you. He also said that my unfilial son is in danger and asked me to summon him back as soon as possible!" The Spectral Demon Emperor also realized what was going on. He sneered, "It seems like there was a kind-hearted person who cared about you!"
"That's right, but this kind-hearted person seems to hate you very much. He only wants you to summon your son back. If you really do that, I'm afraid you won't even be able to find his corpse! "Song Zhong said with a cold smile.
Obviously, Song Zhong's intention was clear. If Ghost Demon Emperor hadn't come personally, he would have killed Prince You Hun. By then, the two of them would have become sworn enemies.
Ghost Demon Emperor came to his senses and said with a cold face, "That's right! It seems that I've been in seclusion for a long time, and some people think that I'm a pushover! "
Prince You Hun was the only one who didn't know what was going on. He asked curiously, "Father, what happened? Why can't I understand what you're saying? "
Ghost Demon Emperor's face turned green and red when he heard this. He couldn't take it anymore and slapped his son hard. Then, he scolded, "You idiot, can't you be smarter? You're being used as a pawn and you still don't know? Are you a pig? "
"Ah!" Prince You Hun had never seen his father so angry. He was so scared that his face turned pale and he didn't dare to move at all.
Song Zhong, on the other hand, was laughing secretly. He thought to himself, Poor Ghost Demon Emperor. You've been wise all your life, but you've raised such a stupid son. How sad!
After Ghost Demon Emperor dealt with Prince You Hun, he ignored him and turned to Song Zhong. He said, "My friend, I don't think it's a coincidence that we've met today. It must have been deliberately arranged by someone!"
"That's what I think too!" Song Zhong said flatly, "But I wonder if your son can tell me who ordered him to kill my housekeeper?"
Ghost Demon Emperor's eyes lit up when he heard this. He said immediately, "Unfilial son, tell me now! Who ordered you to kill them? "
"It's, it's the housekeeper of the auction. He, he said that Lei Shan 'er had embarrassed me, so I should kill her whole family to vent my anger!" Prince You Hun didn't use voice transmission to speak this time. Instead, he said loudly, "So, in a moment of folly, I led my guards to the place he mentioned. Then, then …"
He didn't finish his sentence, but Song Zhong and Ghost Demon Emperor already knew.
Song Zhong didn't pursue this matter. Instead, he asked curiously, "That's strange. With your status as Prince You Hun, what kind of auction is worthy of your attendance?"
"Oh?" Ghost Demon Emperor was surprised when he heard this. He said, "You only like to eat, drink, and gamble. Since when have you been interested in the trash in the auction in the Human Realm?"
"No, no, it's not all trash this time!" Prince You Hun said hurriedly. "There's a genuine Celestial Artifact being auctioned! Otherwise, the Celestial Phoenix Maiden wouldn't have gone! "
"A genuine Celestial Artifact?" Song Zhong and Ghost Demon Emperor's expressions changed when they heard this. In the auction in the Human Realm, even a Pseudo Celestial Artifact was rarely seen in a thousand years. As for a genuine Celestial Artifact, it was impossible for it to be auctioned. Even the super sects and the Four Great Divine Beast Clans only had a few of them. How could they possibly be willing to sell them? Therefore, Song Zhong and Ghost Demon Emperor immediately realized that there was something fishy going on when they heard this.
The Ghost Demon Emperor frowned and asked, "Who's behind this auction?"
"It's the Xuan Turtle Clan!" Prince You Hun said hurriedly.
Song Zhong and Ghost Demon Emperor immediately understood what was going on when they heard Prince You Hun's words. Everyone knew about the conflict between the Xuan Turtle Clan and Song Zhong. However, Song Zhong was too powerful to be dealt with easily. Therefore, they came up with this plan.
After figuring this out, Song Zhong sneered and said, "What a good plan to sow discord and kill with a borrowed knife!"
Although Ghost Demon Emperor had the same suspicion, he did not confirm it. After all, he had no enmity with the Xuan Turtle Clan. He could not think of a reason why they would set him up.
Therefore, he continued to ask, "Unfilial son, when you went to the auction, did you encounter anything unusual?"
"Unusual?" Prince You Hun was stunned at first. Then, he quickly said, "Yes, too many! The Xuan Turtle Clan is so big, but they didn't block the auction so that everyone could see each other. Moreover, the guy who led me to the auction even told me how beautiful Lei Shan 'er was! "
This time, even Ghost Demon Emperor was convinced. He said angrily, "Xuan Turtle Clan, how dare you use me as a tool!"
It was no wonder that Ghost Demon Emperor was so angry. After all, this matter concerned his son's life. Even if his son was saved, the loss of the two guards was real. He only had eight Devil Kings at the Sixth Tribulation Disbanded Celestial Realm. Now, he had lost a quarter of them. How could he not be angry?
Song Zhong was the same. The old butler and Lei Shan 'er's subordinates had become the sacrificial lambs of the Xuan Turtle Clan's scheme. He even almost caused Lei Shan 'er to die with him. All of these had caused SongZhong to almost go crazy. Then, he said angrily, "Your Majesty, it seems that I have to leave now! I need to have a good talk with the Xuan Turtle Clan! "
"I'll go with you!" The Ghost Demon Emperor immediately added, "I've lived for hundreds of thousands of years, but I almost became someone's chess piece. If these bastards don't give me an explanation, I don't mind turning their nest into a sea of blood!"
"Hehe, that's great!" Song Zhong nodded. Then, he waved his hand and released his Thunder Divine Boat.
The Thunder Divine Boat's majestic appearance and exquisite decoration stunned Ghost Demon Emperor and Prince You Hun.
Ghost Demon Emperor's eyes lit up and he said with a smile, "Is this the famous Thunder Divine Boat?"
"Yes!" Song Zhong smiled and said, "This item can be used as a means of transportation. I wonder if Your Majesty is willing to honor me with this?"
"Haha, I was just about to disturb you!" Ghost Demon Emperor laughed heartily and followed Song Zhong into the Thunder Godly Boat.
Then, the Thunderbolt Divine Boat turned into a seven-colored stream of light and disappeared into the horizon.
On the Lightning Divine Boat, Song Zhong entertained the Ghost Demon Emperor and his son with the best wine and spirit fruits. Now that the two of them knew that they were instigated by a despicable person, their anger naturally dissipated and they became harmonious.
Although Spectral Soul Demon Emperor had a fierce reputation, he was actually a forthright and straightforward man. He liked to do things straightforwardly, which made him very compatible with Song Zhong. The two of them drank and made merry all day long on the road, complementing each other.
Of course, this was also related to their loneliness. At their level, it was very difficult to find someone of equal status to drink with. It was not easy for them to meet each other by chance. Naturally, they got along very well. As a result, the two of them ended up becoming good friends despite their age difference. Even Prince You Hun ended up becoming Song Zhong's junior.
This naturally made Prince You Hun extremely unhappy. However, in the world of cultivators, strength was everything. Since he was unable to defeat SongZhong, he could only swallow his pride and acknowledge this uncle who was many years younger than him.
Several days later, after a long journey, Song Zhong and the Spectral Soul Demon Emperor finally arrived at a Spirit World beside the Xuan Turtle Clan. It was inconvenient for Song Zhong to meet mortals, so they did not directly look for the juniors of the Xuan Turtle Clan. Instead, they asked Prince You Hun to bring Song Zhong and the Spectral Soul Demon Emperor's invitation card to the Xuan Turtle Clan's reclusive elders.
Clearly, Song Zhong and the Spectral Soul Demon Emperor were very influential. Even the Xuan Turtle Clan did not dare to slight them. Not long after Prince You Hun left, he brought the two of them to the small pavilion where Song Zhong and the Spectral Soul Demon Emperor were staying.
Song Zhong had never seen these two people before. One of them was an old man with a white beard, while the other was a bald man. It seemed that the bald man had a higher status than the old man.
After the Xuan Turtle Clan's people arrived, the old man immediately introduced himself. "I'm Xuan Sanjue, the temporary patriarch of the Xuan Turtle Clan. This is my senior, Xuan Qing!"
Song Zhong and the Spectral Soul Demon Emperor did not even bother to look at Xuan Sanjue. Instead, they both fixed their eyes on Xuan Qing. This was because they could feel the surging Immortal Qi hidden in this person. However, in terms of magic power, this person was at least on par with them.
