Upon seeing Tian's corpse, the two ghost messengers flew into a rage.

"How dare this mere evil creature reveal itself before us brothers? It deserves to die!"

After saying this, he raised the shackles and smashed them down on the corpse's head.

The corpse, suddenly attacked, roared to the sky, and a miniature iron tower appeared in its hand—the very one that Matsui Ichiro was holding.

The iron tower and the shackles collided with a dull thud.

The corpse was merely a temporary creation by Matsui Ichiro using the evil magic of the Nine Chrysanthemums School. How could it possibly be a match for the ghost messengers? It immediately had one arm shattered, and the iron tower fell to the ground.

Suffering this severe blow, the caster, Matsui Ichiro, immediately suffered a backlash; one of his arms hung limply, as if the bones inside had been completely shattered.

Amidst screams, Matsui Ichiro shouted "Oh no!" and then controlled the corpse to flee into the distance.

Seeing this, another ghost messenger sneered and struck out with his mourning stick.

The corpse sensed something approaching from behind, and a large, ghost-headed sword appeared in its remaining hand.

The large sword was thrown, and surprisingly, it slightly deflected the mourning staff.

It caused the impact to miss the head and hit the corpse's shoulder instead.

Although the corpse's arms were now completely useless, it had successfully escaped the pursuit of the ghost messengers.

Just as I was about to run back, I suddenly felt myself crash into a wall.

It's still those thick steel walls, several meters thick.

Before the corpse could react, a pair of hairy hands had already grabbed his head, gently twisting and lifting it.

The corpse's large head was immediately pulled out.

At this moment, the owner of the large hand burst into laughter: "Oh my god, that'll teach you to be blind!"

"You dare to bump into me, Master Xin? You're dead now, hahaha!"

That's right, it was none other than Xin Lianshan, the powerful ghost who appeared before, now one of the ten Yin Marshals of the Underworld.

Upon seeing Xin Lianshan's arrival, Zhao Youliang and Liao Zhiyuan in the room finally breathed a long sigh of relief.

"This time it's all set!"

Outside the room, the two ghost messengers were stunned when they saw the powerful ghost, and then their faces were full of disgust.

Despite feeling disgusted, I still forced myself to step forward and bow.

"The Soul-Capturing Officer greets Commander Xin. Commander Xin, what brings you here?"

Xin Lianshan was a cautious person... even as a ghost, he was very careful. Upon hearing this, he showed no airs at all, laughed heartily, and clasped his hands in response.

"You two have worked hard, you can go back now."

Upon hearing this, the ghost messenger was about to subconsciously nod in agreement, but suddenly realized something.

This isn't right. Do you even know why we came here? You're telling us to go back.

If you delay the tasks assigned by your superiors, are you going to take responsibility?!

Just as one of the ghost messengers was about to speak, the powerful ghost Xin Lianshan spoke first.

"I know what you're here for, right? Just to grab a kid named Liao Zhiyuan and collect debts on the side, isn't that right?"

The two ghost messengers were completely stunned this time: "Commander Xin, how did you know?"

"I'll just do some quick calculations!" Hao Gui boasted shamelessly.

Seeing the other person's "Are you kidding me?" look, Xin Lianshan gave an awkward smile.

"Okay, I'll give you a heads-up. After that, you can do whatever you want, okay?"

"First of all, the boy you are chasing is a descendant of the Nine Heavens Fiend Child General, and also a descendant of a single lineage."

"Is that so?!" Upon hearing Xin Lianshan's words, the expressions on the two ghost messengers finally turned serious.

However, he still showed no intention of turning away.

Xin Lianshan seemed to have anticipated this situation, so he continued to speak in a cheeky manner.

"Besides the aforementioned identities, I've done some calculations... no, I mean, the young general has done some calculations, and he should have another hundred years of lifespan. Do you two agree?"

The young general never disappoints:

The two ghost messengers, who were not much to begin with, were completely charred inside and out after hearing the words "Young General."

"W-what? The young general calculated that?!"

"Xin Shuai, you can't fool us by using his name!"

Xin Lianshan laughed even more smugly upon hearing this, as if to say, "Believe it or not, or you'll have to bear the consequences if you don't."

At the same time, he couldn't resist teasing, "What's wrong? Judging from your expressions, did the young general miscalculate?"

"No way... You wait here, I'll bring the young general over and ask him right away."

Seeing that the demon was serious, the two ghost messengers hurriedly waved their hands in fear.

"Xin Shuai, no! Xin Shuai, stop fooling around!"

"How could the young general be wrong?!"

"Even if his calculations differ from those recorded in the Book of Life and Death, the Book of Life and Death must be the one that is wrong!"

"We'll go back right now, we'll go back right now and change the Book of Life and Death, okay?!"

After saying that, he immediately turned and ran, disappearing in a flash.

They didn't even mention demanding repayment of karmic debts from Zhao Youliang anymore...

Watching the two ghost messengers depart, the powerful ghost Xin Lianshan burst into laughter: "Hahahaha, how come you two weren't scared to death!"

After making fun of the ghost messenger, the powerful ghost shouted in the direction of Zhao Youliang.

"Those of you who are just watching, come out now."

“I won’t go in… I’m afraid my yin energy will affect the living people inside, and they’ll get sick.”

Upon hearing this, Zhao Youliang and Liao Zhiyuan rushed out and bowed to Hao Gui.

Akuma simply waved his hand casually, indicating that they didn't need to.

Then he hugged Chang Jie and showered him with kisses, leaving Chang Jie's face covered in eggshell-like spittle.

"Nephew, tell me the truth, have you missed me?"

Chang Jie was still listless and weak, but he nodded his chubby little head with effort.

"Yes, I've thought about it."

"Uncle Xin, you're really nice; you didn't draw a turtle on my eggshell."

"They just wanted to help me give birth, to pull me right out of the eggshell."

When Chang Jie exposed his embarrassing moment, the shameless Hao Gui wasn't embarrassed at all; instead, he laughed even louder.

A moment later, he seemed to remember something and pulled out more than ten packs of cigarettes from somewhere, pressing them against Chang Jie's limp body.

"Nephew, feel free to draw any. After you're done, I'll go to the young general's house and steal some for you... I'll get it for you."

"Alright, I need to hurry back."

"You wouldn't believe how busy we in the underworld have been these past few days. I've been so busy I haven't even had time to go out for drinks and entertainment..."

Just before Xin Lianshan disappeared little by little, he shouted out his last words.

"Oh right, Quantum, Zhiyuan, the little tower and the ghost-head knife on the ground are good stuff. You can keep them and play with them."

"Don't worry if it breaks, just ask the young general to make you a new one!"

"He's got nothing better to do than fart..."

In fact, without Xin Lianshan saying much, the clever Zhao Youliang had already realized that the tower and the ghost-head knife were treasures.

If it weren't a precious treasure, how could it withstand the Yin Judgment Instrument of the Ghost Messenger!

While Liao Zhiyuan was snatching the treasure, Chang Jie spoke weakly to Zhao Youliang.

“Quantum, my mother says men should be faithful, I don’t smoke this kind of cigarette.”

"When we get back, go to the convenience store and exchange it for the kind you usually buy."

"That kind of strong kick, it burns your throat and stings your eyes when you smoke it..."
