"Wait, let me think about it. You said that my ancestor conquered a territory in the underworld and became one of the twelve Lords of the Underworld. Now that he's dead, you want me to inherit his legacy?"
In the park of Indigo City, Lu Wu looked at the little girl who was sitting on a small stool with a serious expression.
"To be precise, when you inherit his legacy, you have to find a way to avenge your ancestor. After his death, his former subordinates betrayed him and divided the territory that belonged to you!"
Lu Wu laughed, "Kid, you must visit Qidian a lot, right? You're just like me when I was a kid! "
"I'm not joking. Your ancestor was one of the most powerful beings in the underworld. To expand his territory and unify the whole underworld, he lost his life in an experiment to create a war artifact. So, you must inherit his will, unify the underworld, and become the emperor of the underworld!"
Lu Wu nodded solemnly and patted the little girl's head.
"Then, do you want to help me and become my right-hand man? After we conquer the underworld, we will conquer heaven and become the master of the three realms!"
Hearing Lu Wu's words, the little girl suddenly became excited. She looked at Lu Wu with a blushing face and nodded vigorously.
"Okay, then tell me where your house is. I'll send you back first. I'll call you when I have enough soldiers."
The little girl's expression froze, "Do you still not trust me?"
Lu Wu shook his head decisively, "Of course I trust you. I'll make a call in a few days and borrow tens of thousands of soldiers from Emperor Qin. Then, we will conquer the underworld!"
Hearing this, the little girl suddenly stood up from the small stool and hammered her head on Lu Wu's chest.
"You lied to me! You lied to me! "
Lu Wu quickly pushed the little loli away. Looking at her clenched teeth and furious face, he felt very helpless in his heart.
"Come with me, I'll bring you back!"
"Where to?"
"The underworld!"
Lu Wu was stunned, "Kid, you can't be so stupid!"
Hearing this, the little girl raised her head and began to grind her teeth again.
Then, she took out a black object from her pocket and stuffed it into Lu Wu's hand.
"This is a Yin Talisman. With it, you can go back and forth between the Yin and Yang!"
It was a triangular piece of talisman with a metallic texture. There were many twisted runes on it. It looked very peculiar, and Lu Wu could not help but take a second look at it.
At first, Lu Wu wanted to ask if she bought it from Baobao, but the little girl grabbed Lu Wu's hand that was holding the talisman and mumbled something.
What happened next shocked Lu Wu. A black dot appeared in front of him. The black dot expanded rapidly as it rotated. There was even a suction force coming from the inside that pulled him in.
A sense of weightlessness followed. Just as Lu Wu was at a loss of what to do, an image appeared at the end of the black tunnel. Then, he was thrown out and landed on his butt.
Dark clouds rolled in the dusky sky, and a hazy blood moon hung high in the sky. Blood-colored rain sprinkled down from the sky.
The scene in front of him made Lu Wu realize that he had really transmigrated to the legendary Underworld.
Looking back at the little girl, Lu Wu's lips trembled slightly, "Are you telling the truth?"
The little girl put her hands on her hips proudly, "I'm telling the truth. This area is your ancestor's territory. It's called Beiqi, and it's one of the twelve major territories of the Underworld!"
This time, Lu Wu believed her. Everything in front of him proved that the little girl was telling the truth.
"So, I'm the new His Excellency? One of the rulers of the Underworld? "Happiness came so suddenly that Lu Wu could not accept it. Of course, he could not resist it.
"Yes! You're the new King of Beiqi. But before that, you have to find a way to reclaim your lost territory. "
Thinking of what the little girl said before, that his ancestor's territory was divided by his subordinates after his death, Lu Wu's expression froze.
"That's a must. Those bastards dared to betray my ancestor, so they must be punished. So, did my ancestor leave me any Peerless Godly Skills?" Lu Wu looked at the little girl expectantly, waiting for her answer.
"No," the little girl shrugged.
"You should know that every Yin Realm creature's cultivation relies on the accumulation of time as a foundation. So, if you don't have a hundred thousand years of cultivation time, it will be very difficult for you to reach the height of your ancestor." The little loli answered truthfully.
Lu Wu was stunned, "Then, did he have thousands of soldiers and horses, or elite cavalry or something?"
"No, he didn't. After your ancestor died, they all betrayed him. Do you have anything except this house?"
The little girl pointed at the almost abandoned palace that had obviously been burned down.
"Then I'll take my hammer and take back my ancestor's territory!" Lu Wu looked sad and angry.
"No, you still have me!" the little girl said proudly with her hands on her hips.
Hearing this, Lu Wu's eyes lit up again, "You must be very strong!"
The little girl shook her head and pouted, "I fought with a ghost last time and was almost eaten. It was so scary!"
Lu Wu's eyes were listless. This inheritance was just a little girl with negative combat power. How could he survive in the Underworld? He would be lucky if he was not eaten.
Seeing the disappointment on Lu Wu's face, the little girl smiled and took out a ring from her pocket,
"Your grandfather died in the final stage of building the Battle Artifact, but I helped him complete the last step. So, you still have this artifact."
Lu Wu took the hollow ring from the little girl's hand, which was glowing with a faint blue light.
"Is this thing very powerful?"
The little girl nodded quickly, "Yes, it is. Try it on!"
With great anticipation, Lu Wu wore the Battle Artifact on his index finger.
A blue light suddenly appeared and covered Lu Wu's body.
[The Battle Artifact has been activated, testing the wearer's identity …]
[Bloodline testing successful. The host is the descendant of the King of Beiqi. The Battle Artifact is officially bound to the host …]
Two notifications suddenly appeared in Lu Wu's mind. At the same time, the description of the Battle Artifact also flowed into his mind.
In the description, the Battle Artifact was built by the ambitious ancestors in order to unify the entire Underworld. Its most powerful function was to create immortal soldiers. These immortal soldiers were condensed from the Yin Energy that was everywhere in the Underworld. It cost almost nothing. As long as the soul existed, the body could be changed at any time, achieving the goal of almost immortality.
However, this ability had a prerequisite, which was to control a sufficient number of souls. Only then could there be countless immortal soldiers to command.
After being stunned for a moment, Lu Wu's expression gradually returned to normal.
"How is it? Isn't it a great invention?" the little girl said proudly.
"Actually, I just want to know where to find a large number of souls to command," Lu Wu pointed out the key problem.
Hearing this, the little girl was obviously stunned. Her expression gradually stiffened, and tears began to appear in her eyes.
"I … Why didn't I think of that? Without souls, this artifact seems to be useless!"
Looking at the little girl who was crying, Lu Wu felt a headache coming on. This ancestor was too unreliable. The idea of the artifact was good, but with his current strength, where could he find a bunch of souls? It was practically useless.
Reaching out to rub the little girl's head, Lu Wu was about to comfort her. Suddenly, an idea flashed in his mind.
"By the way, are you also the developer of this artifact?"
The little loli rubbed her reddened eyes and nodded.
"Then, can you add some functions to the artifact?"
The little girl raised her head in confusion. She seemed a little puzzled.
Lu Wu took out the Yin Talisman that could travel between Yin and Yang and shook it in front of the little girl, "Add the functions of this thing?"
"It's not difficult, but what's the use?" the little girl sobbed a few times, as if she was trying to calm herself down.
Lu Wu laughed, "Do you know what I do in reality?"
Hearing this, the little girl took out a small notebook from her pocket, flipped it open, and read:
"Lu Wu, 23 years old, the 365th generation descendant of the King of Beiqi. Three years after starting his business, he's still a loser. He opened a small gaming website with almost zero hits, and he's still single …"
Lu Wu quickly stopped the little girl's rambling, "You know that I make games.
"You also know that I make games. Can you enrich the functions of this artifact? For example, we can guide the mortals in the world of the living into the underworld by experiencing the game and let them become our undying warriors. As long as the game is popular enough, we can have countless warriors!"
The little girl pondered for a moment with a serious face, and her eyes gradually lit up.
"Great idea! Moreover, when their bodies die, they can completely condense a new Yin body, which is equivalent to resurrection in the game! "
The little girl's reaction surprised Lu Wu. He did not expect her to understand the true meaning of this method so quickly.
"Have you played games before?" he asked subconsciously.
"Phew, I'm a veteran player of World of Warcraft. I've been playing for more than 300 years!" the little girl put her hands on her waist proudly.
Lu Wu was speechless. He did not expect the little girl to be so old.
"But this is a big project. We need a set of game systems, such as quests, shops, dungeons, professions, and so on!" Lu Wu said worriedly.
"Leave it to me. The Battle Artifact's function is not only to create undying warriors, but also to condense various things with Yin energy and soul power. It can be used to create all kinds of game equipment and items in the shop."
"What is soul power?" Lu Wu asked curiously.
"Soul power is the first indicator to measure the strength of an underworld creature. It's equivalent to the spiritual power in a cultivator's body. After all the underworld creatures die, the soul power in their bodies will dissipate. It's an existence of a higher level than Yin energy."
This made Lu Wu's eyes lit up, "Then can we let our players kill other underworld creatures and rob them of their soul power, then absorb it? If we can do that, wouldn't it be equivalent to leveling up the character in the game?"
"No problem!" the little girl patted her chest confidently.
"But it's best if we can take some commission after the players kill the monsters. This is because the soul power can speed up your cultivation, and it can also be used to rebuild the Palace of the King of Beiqi. Its biggest use is as a reward for issuing quests!"
The little girl's suggestion was exactly what Lu Wu wanted to say. He suddenly grinned, "How about 20%?"
"How about 30%!"
Then, the two of them laughed.
