After hearing Ye Xianya's words, the Ghost King Bei Tu, who was hiding under the Naihe River, had a gloomy expression on his face.

He sent his local officials to inquire and learned that Ye Xianya was now a princess of the Great Yan Dynasty and liked to do good deeds. So he secretly sent out many ghost messengers to aggravate the earthquake in Xilong Province, causing the death toll to be twice as high as expected. Then he reported to King Yama and asked Naihe River to change its course to Xilong Province to guide souls, all in order to capture Ye Xianya. Unexpectedly, she was very cautious and did not give him an opportunity.

This time, Ye Xianya walked right into the trap.

He heard from the local landman that Ye Xianya had come to Jichuan, so he came here to lie in ambush.

He thought he could finally avenge the woman, but the man withstood his attack.

Although he didn't use his full strength in that attack, he still used seven-tenths of his power. Anyone with a mortal body would have been doomed.

But that man is still alive.

Although it was only at a glance, Bei Tu felt that the man looked somewhat familiar.

He was a little scared, and even though Ye Xianya was shouting by the Naihe River, he didn't dare to make a move anymore.

His reappearance signifies that he is the one who made the move today, and the other ghost kings are just looking for a way to catch him red-handed.

Therefore, Bei Tu had no choice but to endure and flee.

"He's gone!" Qi Chengshuo coughed a few times, clutching his chest.

"Are you badly injured?" Ye Xianya asked with concern.

"It's not serious. A lot of vitality is surging in my heart, repairing the injuries to my internal organs. It won't be long before I'm fully recovered." Qi Chengshuo shook his head.

"Did you sense that he left?" Ye Xianya asked, composing herself.

"Mm." Qi Chengshuo nodded.

Ye Xianya looked at him upon hearing this, her expression complex.

She had just investigated but found no trace of Bei Tu. He was more powerful than her. She had calculated that she could only see a blurry black shadow in the Naihe River, but she could not see the person clearly. As for when the shadow left, she did not know.

Unexpectedly, Qi Chengshuo was able to sense it.

Lately, Qi Chengshuo has become increasingly extraordinary.

No one knows who he was reincarnated from.

“This Northern Map must be using the land to track our movements,” Ye Xianya said, frowning.

The City Gods and Earth Gods who enjoy incense offerings in various places are actually deities appointed by the Underworld and are under the jurisdiction of the Netherworld. However, since there have always been cultivators in this land of the Great Yan Dynasty, and there are Taoist temples everywhere, there are very few City God Temples and Earth God Temples. Therefore, the power of the Underworld is not great here.

Not only in the Great Yan Dynasty, but also in the Jiyuan Kingdom and the Zhuwu Kingdom, there are almost no City God Temples or Earth God Temples. Only in some countries far away from the Great Yan Dynasty are there more.

"Land God!" Qi Chengshuo frowned slightly: "Then please, Uncle Jiu, issue an imperial edict to demolish the land god temples throughout the Great Yan Dynasty!"

“I just calculated that there are no more than a hundred local earth god temples in the entire Great Yan Dynasty. Some people still believe in the earth god in some places, so there is no need to demolish them. At worst, when we pass through some places in the future, we can use magic to temporarily seal the local earth god temples to prevent the earth god from leaving to report the news. In this way, the Northern Map will not get the news.”

Ye Xianya didn't really care about these things.

"That demoness escaped again by sheer luck, what a pity!" the elder sighed.

“She hasn’t dared to show her face lately. She’s been hiding everywhere and won’t stay in one place for long. It’s not easy for us to stop her in advance. Let’s go back to the capital first and intercept her when she appears again.” After Ye Xianya finished speaking, she glanced at Qi Chengshuo beside her.

His complexion looked much better than before, suggesting that his injuries had healed somewhat, but Ye Xianya was still very worried.

Let's go back to the capital and recuperate first!

Qi Chengshuo felt Ye Xianya's concern for him. Although he appeared calm on the surface, he was actually very happy inside.

...

After returning to the underworld, Bei Tu sat on his throne and remained silent for a long time.

One of the ghost immortals standing below mustered his courage and said, "Ghost Lord, please calm down. Although we failed to kill that woman this time, there will be other opportunities in the future."

"How is my daughter's soul?" Bei Tu asked, frowning.

"Your Majesty, things are much more stable than before," the Ghost Immortal replied hastily.

"Use more treasures to stabilize her soul, and also my grandson, let him properly fuse with the Ghost Immortal Token." Just as Ye Xianya guessed, it would be quite easy for a Ghost Lord like Bei Tu to make his relatives become Ghost Immortals.

Because he had given his daughter the Ghost Immortal Token before, he believed that no one in the world could kill her. Besides, his daughter had only killed a hundred people, so she was not considered a great villain. In addition, he had sent people to set up a barrier there, so his daughter and grandson were definitely safe.

Therefore, the National Library of China did not send people to visit her frequently. It wasn't until almost three months after Zhuang Meihua's death that the National Library of China learned of everything.

When he went to another hell ruled by a different ghost king to bring his daughter back, her soul was almost gone after three months of torment.

Bei Tu was naturally furious and wanted to take revenge on Ye Xianya.

Unfortunately, we failed today.

He thought of Qi Chengshuo's face, and his heart sank slightly.

"Do you remember the man who helped Ye Xianya block my attack today?" Bei Tu turned his head and asked.

This ghost immortal also went with him today.

"No!" The ghost immortal shook his head.

Bei Tu cast a spell, and Qi Chengshuo's face immediately appeared before the two of them.

"Have you seen this person before?" Bei Tu asked.

"Never seen it before!" The ghost immortal shook his head.

He had always lived in the underworld, and his knowledge was limited; he didn't know anyone in the human world.

"Never mind, I'll ask someone else another day!" Bei Tu waved his hand after saying that, planning to go to the Ghost Realm under the jurisdiction of Ghost Lord Su Yu tomorrow to ask her.

Of the ten ghost kings, he was at odds with the others, but had a good relationship with Ghost King Su Yu.

"Your subordinate takes his leave!" The ghost immortal immediately withdrew.

The Northern Ghost King's eyes were full of doubt.

Logically speaking, as a Ghost King, ranked among the immortals of the underworld, he possessed extremely powerful strength and an incredibly strong soul. It was impossible for him to forget anyone he had ever met in his life.

Why did he feel that the man looked familiar, but couldn't remember who he was?

That's really strange!

Having racked his brains but still unable to figure it out, Bei Tu decided to give up and ask Su Yu tomorrow.

However, his daughter had been so schemed against by a mere mortal. If he didn't kill that mortal and annihilate him, he would be letting down the suffering his daughter had endured all these days.

That mortal is a tough nut to crack. Just now by the Naihe River, he actually exposed his identity and revealed that he had violated the Heavenly Laws of the Underworld. He's probably going to run into some trouble. Those ghost lords who have old grudges against him will definitely not let this opportunity pass.
