While he was talking to Shi Sheng, the King of the Dead's soul fire became even weaker.
The King of the Dead was in despair. His soul fire fluctuated greatly. "I'm going to die soon … If I knew I would encounter the underground palace, I wouldn't have made my move today."
"How did you know that person had the Book of the Dead?" It wasn't hard to know that she had the Staff of the Dead. After all, everyone in the Netherworld knew that the Staff of the Dead was in Wei Xian's hands.
"The Staff of the Dead and the Book of the Dead will appear together in Song Willow City. I've known this for a long time."
"You hid under Song Willow City just to wait for these two things to meet?" This made sense. Why would the King of the Dead live under Song Willow City?
But …
"Who told you this?"
The King of the Dead glanced at her. "Why should I tell you?"
"You're going to die anyway! It doesn't matter if you tell me or not. "Shi Sheng shrugged indifferently.
The King of the Dead: "…" He actually felt that it made sense.
The King of the Dead didn't want to stay in the dark alone, so he chose to 'chat' with Shi Sheng. "This was passed down from my family."
Just like humans, the King of the Dead had families. Moreover, the title of King of the Dead could be inherited.
Wasn't it very down-to-earth?
Wasn't it very grand?
The King of the Dead in front of them was indeed hereditary. His family had always said that the Staff of the Dead and the Book of the Dead would appear in Song Willow City at the same time.
Therefore, his family had been living under Song Willow City for generations, waiting for the right time.
In fact, Song Willow City didn't even exist in the beginning. It was just a desolate area with yellow sand and rocks. Only later did Song Willow City come into existence.
"The Staff of the Dead originally belonged to us. You humans stole it from us and used it against us. Despicable and shameless." The King of the Dead was a little angry. "Humans are insatiably greedy. You shouldn't have appeared in the Netherworld. If it weren't for you, the Netherworld wouldn't be like this."
Shi Sheng didn't want to discuss this kind of difficult topic with the King of the Dead.
"You've been living here for generations, waiting for the Staff of the Dead and the Book of the Dead to appear at the same time. Now that the Staff of the Dead and the Book of the Dead have appeared, the underground palace … Do you think this is a coincidence? "
The soul fire of the Undead King wavered. "What do you mean? Could it not be a coincidence? "
Shi Sheng narrowed his eyes and smiled. "You said that there's something terrifying in this underground palace. What is it?"
"I don't know. It's just a saying among the undead." The Undead King shook his head. "The undead who really entered the underground palace are all dead."
"It's a conspiracy!" Shi Sheng gave the Undead King five words and a punctuation mark.
Wherever there is a female lead, there must be a conspiracy!
If she hadn't intervened, the Necromancer's Staff and Necromancer's Book would have been in the hands of the female lead …
It would be strange if there wasn't a conspiracy in a place where the female lead was.
"What scheme?"
"How would I know?" Shi Sheng threw these words back at the Undead King. "Doesn't this underground palace belong to you undead? Go ask your ancestors. "
Obviously, this statement was unanimous. The underground palace belonged to the undead, so the Undead King did not refute it.
It had never thought that this was a conspiracy. Now that Shi Sheng had pointed it out, it seemed to be true …
How did his family know that the Necromancer's Staff and Necromancer's Book would appear in Song Willow City at the same time?
And why did they insist on getting the Necromancer's Staff and Necromancer's Book back?
"No matter what the scheme is, we are all dead now." The Undead King thought for a while and gave up.
Shi Sheng sneered. There was no place that they couldn't get out of. Since they could enter this underground palace, they could definitely get out.
Moreover, the female lead was still inside. How could she die so easily? With the female lead, who was a mobile cheat, there was no need to worry about this sealed world.
… Of course, there were some crazy settings that only the female lead could enter and leave. That was a bit sinister!
When she encountered a crazy setting, she could only become even crazier.
The tunnel fell into a dead silence. The Undead King did not speak and waited for his death.
Shi Sheng was thinking about how to get out. Dong Yu stared at the Undead King, as if he wanted to lick him.
Shi Sheng pulled him over and let him lean against him. "Rest for a while."
"I'm not tired."
"Good boy, rest for a while."
Dong Yu muttered but did not refute Shi Sheng. He leaned against her and continued to stare at the Undead King.
"Can you tell him not to stare at me? I'm about to die. Can't you let me die in peace?! "The Undead King was really uncomfortable being stared at.
Shi Sheng pressed Dong Yu's head against his chest.
Dong Yu was forced to look away. However, when he realized that Shi Sheng's smell was more comfortable, he hugged Shi Sheng's waist and ignored the dying Undead King.
Chu Yunling fell asleep in the Undead Puppet. She had suffered a lot of shock today. Now that it was quiet, the little girl fell asleep easily.
Shi Sheng stuck a Soundproof Talisman on Chu Yunling so that she could sleep well.
…
As time passed, the Undead King became weaker and weaker. His Soul Fire became smaller and dimmer.
"Wife … I'm not feeling well." Dong Yu, who had been nestled in Shi Sheng's arms, suddenly spoke.
"Hmph, you have a reaction." The Undead King immediately took the opportunity to mock him.
"Where are you feeling unwell?"
Dong Yu raised his head. His hood immediately fell down, revealing his pale face. "I'm hungry."
Shi Sheng: "…"
He had only absorbed so many Soul Fires when he came in. Wouldn't he need to take care of it for a while? How long had it been, and he was already complaining that he was hungry?
He was being poisoned!
The Undead King immediately curled up into a ball when he heard Dong Yu complaining that he was hungry. He was afraid that he would be treated as food.
Since Dong Yu's hood had fallen down, the Undead King was able to see his face. He blurted out in shock, "Is … is he the host of the Vairocana Demon?"
No wonder he could absorb so many Soul Fires. With the Vairocana Demon, it was not enough for him to eat.
"Host?" Dong Yu had never told her that.
Of course, the truth was, she did not have time to figure out what the Vairocana Demon was.
"Is he crazy?" The Undead King continued to shrink into the corner. The Soul Fires were flickering even more because of his emotions. "Once the Vairocana Demon is fully grown, the whole Undead World will be doomed!"
Dong Yu tilted his head and stared at the Undead King coldly. The Undead King swallowed his saliva with difficulty. "You, I advise you to kill him quickly. The Vairocana Demon is a ferocious demon. It's a treasure for the undead and some Dark Mages before it fully matures. Once it's fully matured, it's a disaster … the one inside his body is almost fully matured."
Dong Yu tightened his grip on Shi Sheng's hand.
Shi Sheng lowered his head and looked at him.
Dong Yu was still staring at the Undead King, as if he did not notice Shi Sheng's gaze.
"It's fine." Shi Sheng pried his hand away and held it gently.
Dong Yu suddenly turned his head and looked at her cautiously. It was a strange look, filled with darkness and blood.
Shi Sheng smiled and comforted him softly, "It's fine, relax."
