"How dare you!"

But at that moment, a thunderous voice rang out, roaring angrily.

"boom!"

A powerful force descended from the sky, quickly enveloping the young man and sending him flying backward. At that moment, the domain power that the young man had just unleashed dissipated before it even reached Lin Yun.

"What?"

"Lord Yama...was sent flying by a powerful opponent..."

The group of ghost cultivators, including the Bronze Bull, were all shocked by what they saw.

They couldn't believe it. How could Lord Yama, such a powerful figure, be sent flying by another powerful individual? And how terrifying must the power of the one who sent Lord Yama flying be?

"Could it be that we were taken by surprise..."

"That must be true..."

"Could it be that she has her eye on the Flower of Reincarnation in Lord Yama's possession?"

What should we do?

In an instant, countless thoughts arose in the minds of the bronze bull and his fellow ghost cultivators, along with a sense of fear.

Even if the opponent's attack was unexpected and their true strength is not much stronger than Lord Yama's, the fact that they could launch such an unexpected attack suggests that their strength must be extremely terrifying.

As the saying goes, when gods fight, mortals suffer. If Yama, the King of Hell, were to fight his opponent, how would ordinary ghost cultivators cope? Run? Or not run?

If they run away, what will happen to that Flower of Reincarnation? Wouldn't it be a waste of their effort? Moreover, will Lord Yama be angry, and will he hold a grudge against them afterward? Furthermore, if they run now, can they even escape? Or will this newly appeared powerful figure misunderstand and notice them, thus killing them first?

They didn't believe that if this newly emerged terrifying powerhouse were to attack them, Lord Yama would specifically step in to stop him for their sake. Perhaps, Lord Yama wanted them to die unexpectedly to save the reward of offering them the Flower of Reincarnation, so as to avoid leaving them with psychological trauma.

This situation is not impossible.

These various psychological states left these ghost cultivators feeling as if they were walking on knives and fire, unsure of what to do and caught in a dilemma.

These ghost cultivators' thoughts were fleeting; just as they looked up, they saw the newly appeared powerful figure.

What kind of man is he?

Just by standing there, without emitting any aura, he gave people an endless sense of majesty, making them feel awe and a chill run down their spines.

"Who...who is this powerful figure?"

"His strength... is probably even greater than Lord Yama's!"

"I've heard that there are ten Yama Kings in the Netherworld, ten supreme experts. Could he be another Yama King?"

The group of ghost cultivators, including Tongniu, were shocked. This newly appeared powerhouse did not emit much aura, but he seemed to be far more powerful than the Yama they had encountered.

"this……"

Xiao Chong and Bai Po were extremely anxious for Lin Yun. They were even about to release their domain power to help Lin Yun resist the domain power of that Yama Lord, just like when they were in the Realm of Living Beings, where their domain power was combined to resist the suppression of a stronger domain power.

However, before Xiao Chong and Bai Po could release their domain power, such a scene occurred, leaving them shocked and momentarily unaware of what had happened.

In their eyes, that Lord Yama was the top expert in the entire Netherworld, so who would dare to attack him?

"The Three...Three-Eyed Emperor..."

Not to mention the shock felt by Tongniu and his fellow ghost cultivators, as well as by Xiao Chong and Bai Po, even the Yama King himself was deeply shocked. Looking at this newly appeared terrifying powerhouse, he stammered.

Three-Eyed Emperor!

It was actually the Three-Eyed Emperor!

Originally, the Three-Eyed Emperor was vaguely known as the strongest person in the Netherworld. Coupled with his identity as the Lord of the Thirty-Sixth Heaven, his status and strength far surpassed those of this one of the Ten Kings of Hell.

If it had been the Three-Eyed Emperor who attacked him back then, he had no confidence that he could have stopped him.

At that time, in his eyes, the Three-Eyed Emperor was a supreme being who should not be offended.

Later, the most mysterious of the nine emperors, the Blood Emperor, appeared and proved with reality that he was the undisputed number one powerhouse in the Netherworld. Upon his appearance, he broke through nine new layers of heaven in succession, causing earth-shattering changes throughout the entire Netherworld.

With such strength and talent, he far surpassed the Three-Eyed Emperor, who was originally hailed by many ghost cultivators as the strongest in the Netherworld.

However, the Three-Eyed Emperor's status did not decline; on the contrary, it rose again.

For some unknown reason, the Three-Eyed Emperor became the most valued ghost cultivator by the Blood Emperor. It is said that under the Blood Emperor's great care, the Three-Eyed Emperor's strength soared like a rocket, and even a group of ghost cultivators at the peak Saint King level could not defeat him.

If he were to face a ghost cultivator at the peak of the Saint King realm, the Three-Eyed Emperor could even instantly kill him.

What does this mean?

None of the so-called Ten Kings of Hell have reached the peak Saint King realm!

Among the Ten Kings of Hell, he is considered quite powerful, but he is only at the level of an ordinary upper-class Saint King!

This means that even if he were to face the current Three-Eyed Emperor, he might not be able to withstand a single blow!

The young man was shocked and had no doubt about it, because he had seen the Three-Eyed Emperor before, but the Three-Eyed Emperor back then was far less imposing than he was now!

Judging from the Three-Eyed Emperor's current aura, it is clear that his strength has indeed increased significantly!

Those rumors are probably true!

Therefore, when the young man saw that the powerful figure who attacked him was actually the Three-Eyed Emperor, he was suddenly filled with immense panic. After he came to his senses, he bowed respectfully and said, "Song Ting greets the Three-Eyed Emperor. I was unaware of the Three-Eyed Emperor's arrival and failed to greet you properly. Please forgive me, Three-Eyed Emperor!"

Song Ting was his name, but he didn't mention a word about the Three-Eyed Emperor using his domain power to attack him.

"By the way, this is the Flower of Reincarnation that Song Ting just found. I didn't have time to present it to the Blood Emperor. Since the Three-Eyed Emperor has come, Song Ting will give the Flower of Reincarnation to the Three-Eyed Emperor!" As soon as he finished speaking, Song Ting suddenly remembered something, quickly took out the Flower of Reincarnation and handed it over, saying very respectfully.

He didn't know where he had offended the Three-Eyed Emperor. Fearing that simply bowing and apologizing wouldn't be enough to win the Emperor's forgiveness, he quickly took out the Flower of Reincarnation to increase his chances, hoping that the Three-Eyed Emperor would spare him in consideration of his help in finding the Flower of Reincarnation for the Blood Emperor.

His life or death was entirely in the hands of the Three-Eyed Emperor; at this moment, he dared not be careless in the slightest.

"Hmph! Song Ting, you have quite the audacity to attack the Blood Emperor! Have you become arrogant and ignorant now that you've recently acquired the title of Yama?" The Three-Eyed Emperor snorted coldly, looking at the Yama Lord and rebuking him.

"What?"

Song Ting's mind went blank for a moment, and his entire brain was buzzing.

He... he attacked the Blood Emperor? How is that possible? When did he attack the Blood Emperor? How dare he attack the Blood Emperor?

He had never met the Blood Emperor before. If he had, he would be too busy currying favor with the Blood Emperor to dare to provoke him.

That hat is way too big!

This caused extreme panic in Song Ting's heart!

The Blood Emperor is currently the strongest being in the Netherworld, far surpassing the Three-Eyed Emperor in strength. He could very well kill him in the blink of an eye!

Not to mention, the Blood Emperor is also the master of the new Nine Heavens. Countless top experts want to enter the new Nine Heavens to cultivate, including him. However, without the Blood Emperor's permission, no ghost cultivator dares to go. If this big label is confirmed, just this information will probably cause countless top experts from the Netherworld to rush to kill him. It would be good to leave a good impression on the Blood Emperor!

That big hat... he absolutely cannot wear it!

"Three-Eyed Emperor, is there some misunderstanding? I have never seen the Blood Emperor! I was in seclusion during the battle that happened in New Heaven some time ago, and I didn't have time to go! How could I possibly attack the Blood Emperor? I don't even dare to think about such a thing!" Thinking this, Song Tinglian looked at the Three-Eyed Emperor and explained anxiously.

Since the other party was the Three-Eyed Emperor, he dared not speak rudely in the slightest and could only humbly try his best to explain.

At this moment, he really wanted to cry. This was a huge injustice, and it concerned his life and death. He was extremely anxious. If he could, he would like to dig out his heart and show it to the Three-Eyed Emperor to clear his name.

"What?"

"Lord Yama... is he so afraid of this powerful figure?"

"The Three-Eyed Emperor? I've long heard that above the Ten Kings of Hell, there are nine more emperors. Could this one be one of them?"

"Lord Yama attacked Lord Blood Emperor? Who is Lord Blood Emperor?"

Seeing this, the bronze bull and his fellow ghost cultivators were all stunned.

They had assumed the other party's status was not low, but they hadn't expected it to be so high that even a top expert from the Netherworld would treat him with such fear.

As this Lord Yama said, the Netherworld is a world where the strong are respected. This Lord Yama is already a top expert in the Netherworld. What kind of terrifying expert could make this Lord Yama treat him with such fear?

"The Blood Emperor is right in front of you, what else do you have to say?" On the other side, seeing Song Ting's reaction, the Three-Eyed Emperor snorted again and said.

He just witnessed Song Ting attacking the Blood Emperor with his own eyes, how could it be fake?

As soon as he finished speaking, the Three-Eyed Emperor turned around and bowed very respectfully to Lin Yun, saying, "Three-Eyed greets the Blood Emperor! I am late, please forgive me!"

"What?"

"That...that young man is the Blood Emperor?"

"How is this possible? How is this possible?"

"Isn't he just an ordinary ghost cultivator who recently entered the Netherworld?"

"It's over... it's over..."

Seeing this, Song Ting was incredulous, and the group of ghost cultivators led by Tong Niu were also shocked. Then, an endless chill ran through them. It was all over. They hadn't just kicked a steel plate; they had kicked a knife!

Xiao Chong and his wife were just two ordinary ghost cultivators who had just entered the Netherworld. How could they possibly know this Blood Emperor? This Blood Emperor seemed to have a status and position far exceeding that of Yama. How could they have imagined this beforehand?

"Have you finished searching the River of Reincarnation over there?" Lin Yun looked at the Three-Eyed Emperor, not mentioning the matter, but asking instead.

"We've searched it all, but we haven't found the souls that the Blood Emperor mentioned," the Three-Eyed Emperor said, shaking his head slightly.

"Oh." Lin Yun said with some disappointment. Although he had vaguely guessed the outcome when he saw the Three-Eyed Emperor return alone, he still couldn't help but feel disappointed when he heard the Three-Eyed Emperor say so.

"You blocked his domain power, were you perhaps trying to plead for him?" After a pause, Lin Yun steered the conversation back on track, glanced at the distraught Song Ting, and asked again.

"Um?"

"Did the Three-Eyed Emperor block my domain power in an attempt to plead for me?"

Upon hearing Lin Yun's words, Song Ting was startled and suddenly realized that the Three-Eyed Emperor was not only trying to punish him.

By the way, that young man was actually the Blood Emperor?

In fact, he knew the original image of the Blood Emperor... Although he had never seen the Blood Emperor in person, the Blood Emperor's reputation had spread throughout the entire Netherworld, and many ghost cultivators of high status knew about him.

Therefore, he never thought that this young man would be the Blood Emperor, and when he heard the Three-Eyed Emperor say this fact, he could hardly believe it.

However, as the Three-Eyed Emperor interacted with the boy, he gradually came to believe it.

Because there's no need.

Given the Three-Eyed Emperor's strength, there was no need for him to lie.

If the Three-Eyed Emperor wanted to kill him, one move would probably suffice; if the Three-Eyed Emperor wanted him to do something, a single command would suffice.

Previously, many ghost cultivators of his strength might not have been willing to work under the Three-Eyed Emperor, but now, the Three-Eyed Emperor's status in front of that Blood Emperor is at its zenith.

The new Nine Heavens has only been open for a short time, and its environment far surpasses that of other heavens, not to mention its much stronger flow of time. It is estimated that the Three-Eyed Emperor could send them into the new Nine Heavens to cultivate with just a word.

For this reason, countless top experts are willing to work for the Three-Eyed Emperor, and naturally, he is one of them.

Therefore, it was really unnecessary for the Three-Eyed Emperor to lie to him.

So, what the Three-Eyed Emperor said was true; this young man really is the Blood Emperor!

Song Ting was shocked. He had long heard that the Blood Emperor had been reborn and that his soul aura and appearance were different from his previous life. Now it seemed that this young man was the Blood Emperor in his current form!

He... actually dared to attack the Blood Emperor!

Song Ting felt immense panic and lingering fear. Fortunately, the Three-Eyed Emperor had stopped him from using his domain power to suppress him. Otherwise, he might have already perished. He had no doubt that the current Blood Emperor could kill him with a single thought!

Thinking about it this way, the Blood Emperor was right. When the Three-Eyed Emperor blocked his domain power and then scolded him, he was actually saving him!

Thinking this, Song Ting hurriedly bowed to Lin Yun and said in a panic, "Song Ting greets the Blood Emperor. I was unaware that the Blood Emperor was here. I have acted rashly. I beg the Blood Emperor to spare me, considering my dedication to finding the Flower of Reincarnation for you!"

After saying this, Song Ting prostrated himself on the ground. He had actually attacked the Blood Emperor, which was a grave offense. He had to perform the most respectful and apologetic rites to make the Blood Emperor forgive him.

At this moment, Song Ting finally understood why the other party had said earlier that he would let him leave and not pursue the matter further, considering that he had helped him find the Flower of Reincarnation.

The other party was actually the Blood Emperor. He had indeed been searching for the Flower of Reincarnation for him.

Song Ting felt like crying but had no tears left to shed.

At the time, how could he have known that the other party was none other than the Blood Emperor? If he had known, he would never have dared to attack him!

Thinking of this, he felt extremely resentful towards the group of ghost cultivators led by the Bronze Bull. It was not easy for countless top experts in the Netherworld to even see the Blood Emperor. Those ghost cultivators were incredibly lucky to have offended the Blood Emperor's friends. If it weren't for these ghost cultivators, how could he have offended the Blood Emperor?

At the same time, he was filled with regret!

This is a tremendous disaster, but it is also a tremendous opportunity.

Those two ordinary ghost cultivators were actually friends of the Blood Emperor?

If he had known about this beforehand, why would he have treated them that way? If he had treated them well, wouldn't he have been able to rise to the top in one step and get in touch with the Blood Emperor?

Thinking about it this way, he felt so regretful that his heart was bleeding!

It's truly a matter of one step to heaven and one step to hell. He actually abandoned the path to heaven and instead plunged into the abyss of hell!

It's all over! It's completely over!

Seeing this, the hearts of the Bronze Bull and his fellow ghost cultivators turned completely cold!

If even Yama, the King of Hell, is like this, how could ordinary ghost cultivators possibly escape?

Thinking of this, they all hurriedly turned to Lin Yun and Xiao Chong, their bodies prostrate on the ground, trembling, but they dared not utter a word.
