Chapter 176 She Almost Tore Up the Book of Life and Death

After gaining spiritual power, Huo Qinghuang no longer had to waste his spiritual power to communicate with the underworld; a decree from the Emperor would suffice.

The talisman exuded a mysterious power that did not belong to any sect in this world. Long Weihua had never seen it before.

His heart was greatly shocked, and he thought to himself, I was right, this Miss Huo must be the reincarnation of a big boss from the underworld, otherwise how could she dare to summon Judge Cui so casually.

Not long after, a strange fluctuation suddenly appeared in the surrounding space, and a black vortex appeared out of nowhere, emitting a gloomy aura.

Everyone felt a chill coming towards them and couldn't help shivering.

As the vortex spun, a figure dressed in a black robe, wearing a tall crown and holding a book of life and death slowly walked out of it.

This person is Cui Yu, the judge of the underworld.

This scene had already frightened Li Chengliang silly.

Although he had worked in Bureau 749 for many years, he had always been in the logistics department. Although he had handled many rare treasures, he had never seen such a strange scene.

It’s over!

At this moment, Li Chengliang had only this one thought in his mind.

He collapsed to the ground, holding his chest. He wanted to escape, but found that his body seemed to be imprisoned. His legs were weak and he could hardly move.

"Who summoned me?"

Judge Cui's voice was low, as if it came from the Netherworld, and if you listened carefully, it sounded a little displeased.

He had just finished interrogating a wicked man who had committed many evil deeds and was in a bad mood when he was summoned. How could he be in a good temper?

"Hmm? Is Cui Pan really that brave enough to show me his displeasure?"

The clear and cold voice was like an icy arrow that suddenly pierced into Judge Cui's heart.

He suddenly raised his head and looked at the extremely similar face. His expression changed drastically in an instant, his eyes widened, and he was full of disbelief.

Judge Cui's forehead was covered with cold sweat, his body was stiff, and he even had difficulty breathing. He quickly bowed and said, "Your humble servant greets the Green Phoenix girl..."

"shut up!"

Huo Qinghuang's eyes shone, and she shouted, "I called you here to borrow your Book of Life and Death to see what bad things this person has done. Don't talk nonsense about the rest."

As she spoke, she glanced at Judge Cui warningly.

Although this glance did not carry any lethal power, Judge Cui reflexively thought of certain past events and shuddered again.

Yes, yes!

It’s this look!

In the underworld, anyone who was warned by this look but did not take it seriously had their souls scattered and disappeared between heaven and earth.

Cui Yu is a smart man, which is why he has been able to sit on the judge's seat for so many years and even escape from Huo Qinghuang's hands.

So as soon as Huo Qinghuang said this, he knew that he almost broke a taboo again.

This once lawless emperor appeared in the mortal world, he must be going through a tribulation.

If he accidentally let the cat out of the bag, not to mention how the person in front of him would torment him, even if the Emperor knew about it, he would not look at him kindly.

There is no way. Who can blame this person for having such a strong backer? Even the Emperor doesn't want to get involved in the cause and effect, let alone him, a small judge?

Thinking of this, Judge Cui swallowed his saliva, carefully handed over the Book of Birth and Death, and said respectfully: "Please check it."

Huo Qinghuang's mouth twitched slightly, and he said speechlessly: "It is your duty to check the Book of Life and Death. If I look through it, aren't you afraid that your official hat will be in jeopardy?"

I used to think Cui Yu was quite smart, why did he become so stupid today?

She didn't know that Cui Yu was frightened by her.

In the past, when she caused chaos in the underworld, let alone looking through the Book of Life and Death, if the Emperor had not come to the rescue, she would have torn up the Book of Life and Death.

So when Judge Cui heard that she wanted to borrow the Book of Life and Death, he dared not neglect her. Even if he felt very miserable, he had to obediently hand it over to her with both hands.

Now, hearing what Huo Qinghuang said, the first thing that came to Judge Cui's mind was not that he had lost face in front of mortals, but that he felt happy in his heart, knowing that he had escaped another disaster.

He hastily took back the Book of Life and Death, and kept saying, "I didn't think it through. I will check this person's life right away."

As he spoke, he opened the Book of Life and Death in his hand. A gust of cold wind blew past, and the pages flipped rapidly.

Long Weihua and several masters around him were already stunned, their eyes wide open, looking back and forth between Huo Qinghuang and Judge Cui.

Not to mention how shocked the masters were, Long Weihua once again confirmed his guess.

This Miss Huo is indeed the reincarnation of a big boss from the underworld. We can only flatter him and must not offend him!

The rustling sound of the Book of Life and Death was like mysterious funeral sounds from hell, stirring everyone's heartstrings.

After a while, Judge Cui stopped and looked at Li Chengliang, with a cold light flashing in his eyes.

"This person has indeed committed many crimes, including colluding with foreign forces, leaking state secrets, and smuggling rare medicinal materials. All of his crimes are recorded in the case."

Judge Cui said loudly.

After hearing this, Long Weihua's face turned extremely ugly and he glared at Li Chengliang: "Li Chengliang, what else do you have to say!"

Li Chengliang was so frightened that his face turned pale. He collapsed to the ground and muttered, "It's over, it's over..."

He never thought that Huo Qinghuang could actually summon Judge Cui. Now the evidence was irrefutable and he had no room for excuses.

"Li Chengliang, the evidence is irrefutable. You have betrayed the country's trust in you. You deserve to die!"

Long Weihua was furious and turned to the expert beside him and said, "Take him away and interrogate him strictly. We must find out the forces behind him and all his crimes!"

Several masters came forward and took Li Chengliang away like a chicken.

Long Weihua took a deep breath, trying to calm down the anger in his heart, and said to Huo Qinghuang: "Miss Huo, this time it is really thanks to you. If you hadn't discovered it in time, the 749th Bureau would have suffered huge losses."

Huo Qinghuang waved her hand and said with a smile, "Director Long, you are too polite. I just happened to see you."

"I don't need to thank you for your kindness."

Long Weihua understood what was going on, nodded, turned around and bowed deeply to Judge Cui, and said, "I am very grateful to Judge Cui for taking this trip. When I am done, I will personally offer the tribute. I hope Judge Cui will accept it."

Hearing this, Judge Cui nodded lightly, feeling very satisfied with Long Weihua's approach.

He had completely lost face in front of these mortals today, but the Director Long in front of him did not behave inappropriately.

Just based on this point, Judge Cui looked up to him.

This person holds a high position in the human world, and maybe he also has a place in the underworld. It would be possible to make friends with him.

Thinking of this, Judge Cui smiled and said, "Director Long, you are too polite. This is my seal. Director Long, if you have anything next time, just summon me directly."

What I mean is that you can just come to me yourself and don't bother that ancestor anymore. He won't be able to stand it if you come a few more times.

Not expecting such a good thing to happen, Long Weihua was immediately overjoyed. He hurriedly thanked him, took the seal, and was so happy that he could hardly stop smiling.

"Although this seal is a replica, it cannot be used casually. Please keep it carefully and don't lose it. If you two have nothing else to do, I will leave."

Judge Cui gave some instructions, then looked at Huo Qinghuang and spoke cautiously.

"Go ahead."

Huo Qinghuang nodded slightly.

Judge Cui felt as if he had been pardoned. His figure flashed and turned into a wisp of black smoke, disappearing into the passage.

It was moving so fast that it seemed as if there was a dog chasing it from behind, which made Huo Qinghuang grit her teeth.
