Chapter 210 The Ten Kings of Hell
Huo Qinghuang was not in a hurry. He took out another ghost-exorcising talisman and threw it at the evil ghost.
The exorcism talismans she drew were completely different from those drawn by ordinary monks, and they were extremely mysterious and powerful.
The evil ghost was hit instantly and let out a shrill scream. Its body became illusory under the impact of the ghost-exorcising talisman.
But it did not stop there. Instead, it attacked Huo Qinghuang even more frantically, with black ghost energy shooting at her like sharp arrows.
Huo Qinghuang licked her lips and a faint smile appeared at the corner of her mouth.
The more powerful the ghost, the more delicious it tastes to devour.
Her body trembled slightly, and her blood and energy surged like a rainbow, and she rushed forward towards the evil spirits.
“Bang!”
Just one punch was enough to almost kill the evil ghost and turn it into ashes.
Fortunately, she withdrew her strength in time, thus saving the evil ghost's life.
However, before the evil ghost could rejoice that he had escaped, he suddenly felt the world spinning, and then nothing happened.
As soon as an evil spirit enters the body, merit will soon fall into the sea of consciousness. Although it is only a trace, it is better than nothing.
Huo Qinghuang smacked her lips, feeling a little unsatisfied.
Although the merits are small, they can be accumulated into a lot.
This is the only time of the year when you can eat to your heart's content, so you might as well eat two more and accumulate more merit.
Next, any evil spirit that dared to show up in the imperial capital suffered disaster, and even the evil spirits in the surrounding areas were completely wiped out.
There were even many evil ghosts who just rushed out of the gates of hell happily, but the next moment they felt dizzy and stepped from one gate of hell into another.
The inexplicable disappearance of groups of evil spirits made ordinary ghosts happy but also uneasy.
Although they don't know which big boss did the good deed to eliminate all the evil spirits, what if they feel they haven't killed enough and come to harm these ordinary ghosts?
As a result, some ghosts who should have taken advantage of this rare opportunity of the year to happily go to the human world to enjoy offerings are now hiding in the underworld, not daring to take a single step out.
This abnormal phenomenon soon attracted the attention of the Ten Kings of Hell in the underworld.
Underworld.
Inside the Yama Palace, the ten Yama Kings were sitting around a huge stone table with solemn expressions.
On the stone table in front of them, there was a huge bronze mirror, which showed the scene of Huo Qinghuang devouring evil spirits in the human world.
"Who is this person? How dare he do that!"
King Qin Guang frowned, with a hint of dissatisfaction in his tone.
As the chief of the Ten Kings of Hell, he has always been known for his majesty. How could he bear to see the monks in the human world causing such harm to the ghosts in the underworld?
Even if they are all evil spirits, they will not tolerate outsiders being so presumptuous.
If this matter gets out, where will the face of the underworld be?
"Yes, after she made such a fuss, all the evil spirits in the underworld were almost devoured by her."
King Chujiang frowned, looking a little unhappy.
"But she is the disciple of that master after all, and we can't offend her." Emperor Song shook his head, with a hint of fear in his tone.
"Um?"
King Qin Guang turned to look at the two people and said, "How come you all know each other? What is the origin of this woman?"
"Um, doesn't she look familiar to you?"
The Chakravartin on the side seemed to want to say something but hesitated, and finally blinked and asked meaningfully.
"Look familiar? Could it be someone I know?"
King Qin Guang's face darkened and he snorted, "Hmph, even if you are an acquaintance, you can't be so presumptuous and throw the face of my underworld to the ground..."
Before he could finish his words, he suddenly froze, his eyes fixed on Huo Qinghuang's cold and arrogant face.
A painful memory rushed in from the long river of time and hit his soul in an instant!
So similar...
King Qin Guang's face froze, looking as ugly as if he had eaten a dead child.
Then he looked around guiltily.
Upon taking a look, he saw that the other Yama Kings were looking at him with sympathy. Of course, there were also some who were gloating over his misfortune.
"You knew this a long time ago?"
After a while, King Qin Guang asked with a grim expression.
"No!"
Several Yama Kings shook their heads in unison.
But because the shaking was too neat, King Qin Guang was even more angry.
"I believed you!"
He snorted angrily, stood up, and without even looking at the bronze mirror, he walked away.
But the footsteps looked a little panicked, as if something scary was chasing him from behind.
"Why did he leave? I really just noticed it just now..."
King Pingdeng said with a puzzled look on his face.
The other Yama Kings looked at each other, and the corners of their mouths twitched.
The news of the reincarnation of the Queen Qinghuang had spread among the high-ranking officials of the underworld long before Judge Cui went to the human world.
Only King Qin Guang and King Pingdeng didn't know.
"She is still as willful as ever. If she continues like this, all the evil spirits will be devoured by her."
King Yama frowned and said.
"Yes, after she made such a fuss, even ordinary ghosts dared not go up to enjoy the offerings."
King Chujiang sighed, with helplessness in his tone.
"Tsk tsk, the ghosts of this year are so pitiful."
The Chakravartin said this with a hint of gloating in his tone.
"So what? Do you dare to go up and warn her?"
Emperor Song shook his head, with a hint of fear in his tone.
“…”
The ten kings of hell looked at each other and finally chose to remain silent.
Warn Empress Qinghuang?
It’s not like they are tired of living and want to seek death.
What's more, although the devouring evil spirit has caused some chaos in the order of the underworld, it may not be a bad thing in the long run.
After all, those evil spirits were the scourge of the underworld, and Empress Qinghuang cleaned them out for them, saving them a lot of trouble.
King Taishan sighed helplessly: "Forget it, since she only targeted the evil spirits and did not harm ordinary ghosts, we should just turn a blind eye."
Although the Yama Kings were unwilling, they had no choice but to accept the matter.
At the same time, the Taoist monks who were praying for blessings and warding off disasters in the human world also noticed something strange.
Longhu Mountain, Tianshi Mansion.
Zhang Tianshi stood in front of the hall with a frown on his face.
He was holding a cell phone in his hand, which recorded the details of Huo Qinghuang devouring the evil spirit in the imperial capital.
As the leader of Taoism, the Tianshi Mansion has always taken it as its responsibility to maintain order in the world. Huo Qinghuang's behavior undoubtedly touched the bottom line of Taoism.
"Who exactly is this Huo Qinghuang?"
Zhang Tianshi murmured in a low voice, with a hint of doubt in his eyes.
He had never heard of the name Huo Qinghuang, but from the news brought back by his disciples, this person's strength was unfathomable, and might even be not inferior to his.
"Master, this matter is of great importance. We must find out Huo Qinghuang's origins as soon as possible."
The elder on the side said in a deep voice.
Zhang Tianshi nodded and immediately gave the order: "Pass the order down, have all the disciples of Longhu Mountain keep a close eye on Huo Qinghuang's movements, and report back immediately if they find any trace of her."
At the same time, the Maoshan Sect and the Sanqing Palace also took action.
