Chapter 366 Temporary Commander

Through talking with ghosts, Jiang Li knew a lot about the underworld. There are ten rulers in the underworld, and they are called the Ten Kings of Hell. All affairs of the underworld are decided by them. Under the Ten Kings of Hell, there are Black and White Impermanence, Ox-Headed and Horse-Faced Ghost Messengers, all of whom are ghost immortals.

There are countless ghosts and immortals in the underworld, who can compete with the immortal world.

The underworld manages the dead and has no interest in the affairs of the world of the living.

There are many immortal artifacts in the underworld, all of which are related to reincarnation. The lack of any one of them may lead to chaos in the reincarnation order.

These can all correspond to what Immortal Changcun said.

Jiang Li thought that the underworld was under attack, whether by external enemies or internal strife, which showed that the situation in the underworld was not very good. Perhaps the underworld was too chaotic, which resulted in the Black and White Impermanence not having the time to ask him to return the Book of Life and Death.

If it was an external enemy, Jiang Li guessed it was the demon from outside the domain or a powerful being from the immortal world. If it was a civil strife, the source must be the demon from outside the domain destroying the world and causing the imbalance between life and death.

In short, it is most likely related to the demons from outer space.

"What were you doing near the tavern last night?" Du Ping asked curiously.

Xiaofang's eyes were blurry: "I don't know, I just feel that the street is very familiar, as if I have been there before. Maybe this is the world I lived in in my previous life."

"I wanted to walk down that street last night, maybe I could remember things from my past life, but when I showed up, I saw you rushing towards me."

"The yang energy in your body was too terrifying and very dangerous to me. I was so scared that I ran away in a hurry."

Du Ping was speechless. From what Xiaofang said, it seemed that he was the scary ghost.

“What should be done with these ghosts?”

"No rush, let's help Xiaofang find her family first." Jiang Li used his spiritual sense to see a portrait of a family in Anyang City, which showed a couple and their daughter.

The daughter in the portrait looks exactly like Xiaofang.

…

Qi Ming returned home, sat dejectedly on a wooden chair, looked at the portrait on the table, and burst into tears.

During these years, she has always lived in the pain of losing her daughter. Every year after the memorial service for her daughter, she only does one thing, which is to wait for her daughter's death anniversary next year.

The lifespan of a Jindan cultivator of over 200 years made her very miserable. She had wanted to end her life more than once, but she couldn't bring herself to do it.

She always felt that she would see her daughter again.

The husband didn't want to stay in Anyang City, which brought back sad memories, and moved to another place.

Qi Ming was guarding the huge house, not knowing what to do. He lived like a walking corpse every day. He was completely different from the high-spirited Jindan cultivator he was fifty years ago.

"Daughter, I'm sorry for you." Qi Ming hugged the portrait and burst into tears.

Through the blurry tears, Qi Ming vaguely saw his daughter standing in front of him.

Qi Ming rubbed his eyes and found that his daughter really appeared in front of him.

"Xiaofang, is that you?"

Qi Ming stretched out his hand tremblingly, wanting to touch this familiar face, but was shocked to find that his hands passed through his daughter's body and could not touch anything.

Xiaofang didn’t know how to respond. She forgot everything and just felt that Qi Ming was very familiar.

In Xiaofang's memory, it was the first time she met Qi Ming, but she seemed to know Qi Ming's name, but the words came to her lips but she couldn't say them.

Who is she?

Xiaofang couldn't remember Qi Ming's identity, nor could she remember the relationship between them.

Until Xiaofang noticed the portrait in Qi Ming's hand, the girl in the portrait looked exactly like her.

However, Xiaofang still can't remember her past life.

She was a little overwhelmed.

Jiang Li on the side shook his head slightly. The effect of Meng Po soup cannot be offset by perseverance and emotion.

"This is your mother Qi Ming. Your name is Qi Gufang. She died fifty years ago."

"Human, Human Emperor?" Qi Ming then noticed that besides Xiaofang, there were also Jiang Li and three others in the room.

"I accidentally encountered this ghost named Xiaofang. I think she should be your daughter."

Jiang Li briefly explained Xiaofang's origins, and Qi Ming realized that he was not dreaming.

My daughter was standing right in front of me.

But no matter how hard Qi Ming tried, he couldn't touch his daughter.

"I'm sorry, I don't remember you." Xiaofang said in a low voice. Even though she knew that the woman in front of her was her mother, she really didn't remember anything and felt uncomfortable with Qi Ming's behavior.

"It's okay, it's okay... It doesn't matter if you don't remember mom, as long as you are here..." Qi Ming cried. Her daughter's appearance was beyond her expectations, so how could she expect anything else?

"Thank you, Human Emperor." Qi Ming kowtowed to Jiang Li, but was lifted up by Jiang Li with an invisible force.

Jiang Li said gently: "You wipe my statue every day, worship me, and pray for my blessing. This is already a way of thanking me."

There is a statue of Jiang Li in Qi Ming's home, and Jiang Li can feel the strong power of faith from it.

"I want to build a city near the Human Emperor Palace and gather all the ghosts wandering in Kyushu there, including Xiaofang. I hope you can understand."

After figuring out the origins of the ghosts, Jiang Li wanted to gather them together. After all, although the ghosts had no malicious intent, they knew very little about them after all, and if they were scattered around for a long time, something might go wrong.

“Can I go to that city?”

"sure."

Qi Ming breathed a sigh of relief. As long as he could go, it would just be a matter of moving to a new place.

"Du Ping, the Human Emperor Palace is short of manpower right now. I know you well. You are not a bad person, you just like drinking."

"I appoint you as the temporary leader of the Emperor's Palace for a probation period of ten years. If you do not cause trouble within ten years, I will agree to let you become the real leader."

"Do you have any objection to this appointment?"

Du Ping was overjoyed: "Greetings, Palace Master!"

He did not expect that the fifty-year probation period would be shortened to ten years, and that his status would no longer be a candidate for leadership, but a temporary leadership.

"Since you agree, I will give you a task. I will let Commander Liu build a city near the Human Emperor Palace. What you have to do is to bring all the ghosts in Jiuzhou to the newly built city."

"Make sure to complete the mission!"

Du Ping was determined to do his first task well.

"Kong Kong, after what happened, are you still afraid of ghosts?" Jiang Li said with a smile.

Ji Kongkong blushed, and her fear of ghosts was greatly reduced. When she thought about her previous appearance, she really wanted to find a crack in the ground to crawl into.

Only then did she realize that she was just scaring herself.

No, it was obviously my father who deliberately told me ghost stories to scare me.

She still remembered her father's original words.

"Kong Kong, you must be tired of listening to Uncle Jiang's stories before going to bed. Father will tell you a different story to change your taste."

Jiang Li laughed so hard that tears almost came out: "Did he tell you that?"

When Jiang Li and Ji Zhi were studying, Jiang Li also told Ji Zhi ghost stories using the same rhetoric.

"Ji Zhi, you must be tired from reading. I'll tell you a story to relax your mind. Oh, and don't use your double pupils. The most important thing about this story is the sense of mystery."

Jiang Li still remembered that Ji Zhi was so scared that he had to use his double pupils every time he went to the toilet at night, to see the future in advance, to worry about ghosts above his head, ghost faces appearing under his crotch, and to place red embroidered shoes at the door, etc.

Ji Kongkong looked at Jiang Li with resentment.

It turned out that the incident was caused by Uncle Jiang.
