Daji peeled a grape. She stretched out her slender hand and gently placed it next to Li Nianfan's mouth. She smiled and said, "Young Master, come, open your mouth."
Li Nianfan opened his mouth and ate the grape. His lips touched Daji's little finger. It was much more fragrant than the grape. He said contentedly, "Mm, Little Daji is so obedient. So fragrant."
Nanna rubbed her arms. "Eh, I'm getting goosebumps."
Long'er also snorted and said, "That's right. You have two children next to you. Embarrassing!"
"You still have the nerve to say that. Little Daji and I are enjoying our two-person world. It's just that you two third wheels are messing it up." Li Nianfan rubbed Long'er's head. "Take a good look at the battle on the field and learn more. When you guys are as powerful as them, I'll be able to bask in your glory too."
Nanna pursed her lips and said, "I'll definitely be more powerful than them sooner or later!"
Li Nianfan smiled and said, "Little Daji, ignore them. Come, continue peeling. Don't stop."
With Daji serving him, he could also watch the exciting battle. It was like watching a blockbuster movie. It felt so good.
Ziye's group of five and the three ghosts were locked in a fierce battle. All kinds of gorgeous spells bloomed in the air like fireworks. Li Nianfan was dazzled and exclaimed in satisfaction.
Li Nianfan looked at Daji and said, "Little Daji, isn't it exciting? Are you afraid?"
"Daji is not afraid of anything when I'm by Young Master's side." Daji shook her head and said, "A battle between immortals is naturally exciting. The battle is so intense."
Li Nianfan nodded and said sincerely, "Yes, it's amazing."
He felt that it was a pity. Although he was touched by Little Daji's words, shouldn't girls be afraid of ghosts? At times like this, shouldn't you be screaming and running into his arms for comfort?
It was like taking a girl to watch a horror movie. It was obviously scary, but the girl said that she was not afraid of anything when she was with you. How helpless would that be?
On the battlefield, Ziye's group of five looked at each other and began to communicate.
"Fairy Ziye, how's your side? Is it almost done? "
"That's about it. I've already used all the beautiful and powerful magic arts. My performance was also on point."
"It's the same for me. If we continue fighting, we can only repeat the moves we've used before."
"We've put in so much effort. I'm sure the expert will enjoy watching us. It's almost time to end it."
"Alright! Let's wrap it up..... group... "
Immediately, the five of them worked together. Dharmic powers surged and the sky changed color. Flames, wind, and lightning were all present in the sky. It was extremely terrifying.
The powerful storm of Dharmic powers crashed towards the three ghosts with destructive power.
The three ghosts were not shocked. Instead, they were happy. Their faces were full of relief.
"I can finally die in peace. Sigh, it's been so hard on me."
The battle ended.
The black-armored Ghost General quickly brought his underlings over. He said respectfully, "Yaksha of the Underworld, Bing San. Greetings, immortals."
Ziye nodded. "Hurry up and close the Gates of Hell here."
"I'm coming."
Bing San said. The broken metal chain appeared in the hands of the four Reapers. They threw it out.
This time, there was no obstruction. They closed the Gates of Hell easily.
The gray aura lost its source and began to fade.
Lingzhu and Ziye knew a little about the Underworld. They could not help but ask, "Why are there only a few of you in the Underworld?"
Bing San smiled bitterly. "Immortals, you don't know. The Underworld is no longer the Underworld of the past. We're severely lacking in manpower. Moreover, the entire Underworld is in turmoil. A large portion of our combat power has to stay in there to suppress the ghosts. Some have to go to other places to prevent the ghosts from wreaking havoc in the mortal realm."
Ziye shook her head. "I didn't expect the Underworld to be like this. Even the ghosts can't be suppressed?"
Bing San sighed. He said softly, "The calamity last time caused countless Reapers to die. The Road to the Underworld was cut off. The Reincarnation Stone was shattered. Hell collapsed. Most importantly, even the Gates of Reincarnation were cut off. Now, the Underworld is only left with its name."
Everyone's expression changed. "The Gates of Reincarnation are gone? What about reincarnation? "
"They can only rely on the Heavenly Axiom to operate on their own. This also caused a situation where they have to line up to reincarnate."
Bing San did not know whether to laugh or cry. "The Underworld is now in chaos. How can it accommodate so many ghosts? Thus, more than half of them were thrown into the River Styx. This also caused the ghosts to wreak havoc. However, there's nothing we can do about it."
He paused, then continued. "Back then, the Emperor of Feng Du could not bear for ghosts to wreak havoc in the mortal realm. Thus, he directly cut off the Road to Life and Death. However, recently, I don't know who has the guts to use methods to connect the Road to Life and Death."
"Be careful with your words!"
Ziye and the others spoke in unison. Their expressions were serious as they hurriedly reprimanded him.
How can you casually comment on the actions of an expert?
Bing San was shocked. He then said, "This matter is indeed not something I can casually comment on."
Pausing, he said uncertainly, "Just now, everyone … were you toying with those three ghosts?"
He felt that these five immortals had a special hobby. They liked to show off their strength in front of people who were about to die.
"That's not toying. We were performing!" Ye Liuyun said seriously. "There's an important person who likes to watch immortals fight. Naturally, we had to put in our best."
"C … Performing?" Come and read!
Bing San was stunned. He could not even believe his ears.
Immortals performing a fight for people to watch? Not to mention now, even in the long river of time, this had never happened before. It could be said to be a fantasy story.
In the mortal realm, there were actors who sang songs and busked on the streets. These were all unorthodox professions.
Immortals actually performing in a fight? Wasn't this lowering their status?
Most importantly, Ziye and the others were all kings among immortals. Just which important person was worthy of them doing this?
They did not dare to think about it. Just thinking about it made their scalps tingle.
Ziye pondered for a moment, then solemnly reminded, "This person is a person who transcends the mortal realm. He enjoys the pleasures of the mortal realm. The Road to Life and Death was connected by him. When you see him later, you must be very, very careful when you speak!"
Bing San's face instantly turned pale. He said with a trembling voice, "He connected the Road to Life and Death? Could it be that he's right next to us? "
"Nonsense. Otherwise, who are we performing for?" Xiao Chengfeng said. "Let's not talk about it. Don't let the expert wait too long."
Immediately, everyone headed towards Li Nianfan's direction. Bing San, on the other hand, followed behind nervously.
Li Nianfan had been paying attention to this place. When he saw them walk over, his face instantly froze.
This was a staff member of the Underworld. Through Ziye and the others' recommendation, they might be able to form a good relationship.
He opened his mouth and said with a smile, "Wonderful, too wonderful. Everyone has worked hard."
Ao Cheng opened his mouth and said, "Those three ghosts are quite skilled. We also spent quite a bit of effort."
"I can see that." Li Nianfan nodded. He looked at Bing San and said, "This should be someone from the Underworld, right?"
Bing San's heart tightened. He did not dare to delay and quickly said, "I am Bing San, a Yaksha ghost soldier of the Underworld. Greetings, Young Master Li."
Bing San? The name of the Underworld was strange.
Li Nianfan cupped his hands, "So it's Young Master Bing. Nice to meet you, nice to meet you."
Bing San said embarrassedly, "There are ghosts in the Underworld that wreak havoc in the mortal world. I've made a fool of myself in front of Young Master Li."
Li Nianfan naturally would not expose him. He shook his head and said, "Just now, in the village not far away, I met two ghost soldiers. Ghosts run amok. You guys were able to fight with your lives on the line. It's already very admirable."
Bing San quickly said, "Young Master Li reminded me. We have to quickly quell the chaos here. We can't let the mortals suffer."
"Let's go and take a look."
Not long after, everyone arrived at the village from before.
Compared to before, there were much fewer ghosts here. It was not as chaotic as before.
After all, most of the ghosts were not very strong. With the intervention of cultivators and two ghost soldiers, many wandering souls were subdued.
Of course, there were even more wandering souls that fled. There was nothing they could do. They could only slowly collect them in the future.
However, what surprised Li Nianfan was that although the ghost chaos had been quelled, the two ghost soldiers were surrounded by the mortals in the village. Moreover, there were sounds of crying.
There were even some cultivators who seemed to be surrounding the two ghost soldiers.
In the crowd, a ghost man was confronting the two ghost soldiers. Beside the man, there was an old woman with half-white hair.
They seemed to be arguing about something.
"Young Master Li." When Emperor Luo saw Li Nianfan, he immediately turned into a streak of light and flew over. His expression was a little reserved. After all, everyone around Li Nianfan was a big shot that he could not reach.
Li Nianfan asked curiously, "Emperor Luo, what's going on?"
Emperor Luo explained the situation tirelessly. Everyone's expression became a little unnatural.
Li Nianfan looked at the ghost man and the old woman in disbelief. He could not help but confirm, "You said they are husband and wife?"
Emperor Luo nodded. "Absolutely."
To be precise, they were husband and wife from twenty years ago. The man had been dead for twenty years, and the old woman had been a widow for twenty years for the man. That was why she had become like this.
It was a love story that was moving and moving.
Twenty years later, this man turned into a ghost and came out of the Underworld. The first thing he did was return to his village to protect the village and his wife. Just now, he had fought with his life for the villagers and was still defending.
Emperor Luo said again, "This man was the hunter instructor of this village back then. He was also the leader of the village and had a high prestige. He also died for this village."
Li Nianfan nodded. "I can see that."
After all, he had been dead for twenty years. Even if he had turned into a ghost, he could still obtain the support of everyone in the village. He even dared to confront the ghost soldiers with them. This prestige was naturally extremely high.
Li Nianfan said sincerely, "This man is worthy of admiration!"
Ziye and the others quickly nodded in agreement without hesitation.
"Young Master Li is right. Even I have to say that he has guts!"
"He is indeed worthy of admiration."
When Bing San heard Li Nianfan speaking up for the ghost man, his heart moved. He immediately said, "This kind of person is qualified to be a ghost soldier!"
