"Chu Ying!"
Qi Yan recognized the person.
Chu Ying is one of the Nine Netherworld Generals under the command of King Hong Ling. She is dressed in a dark red outfit, has a pretty face, and a pair of watery peach blossom eyes. She looks very young.
"Qi Yan, why are you here? What's the situation outside?" Chu Ying showed up on her own initiative because she recognized Qi Yan. She walked over quickly.
Upon hearing this, Qi Yan's face turned gloomy and for a moment he didn't know how to respond.
"Who is this?" Chu Ying paused and glanced at Chen Yan vigilantly.
"Chu Ying, this is Ming..." Qi Yan said anxiously.
Chen Yan said: "I am a friend of your Red Spirit King."
Qi Yan was slightly surprised. He didn't understand why she wanted to hide her identity. No, that's not right. Lord Hades was originally a friend of King Hongling.
She is now looking for the Red Spirit King as a friend.
Qi Yan thought of this and immediately said to Chu Ying: "Chu Ying, this is the king's friend, he is trustworthy."
After a pause, he added: "Don't be rude."
Chu Ying looked at the masked girl in purple and felt suspicious.
At this moment, Chu Ying caught a glimpse of Qi Yan winking at her from the corner of her eye. His expression was very strange. Her brows knitted tightly together involuntarily, and she was filled with suspicion, unable to guess what Qi Yan was trying to say.
Just as the scene fell into a brief silence, Chen Yan finally broke the deadlock and said, "Can you take me to see your Red Spirit King?"
Hearing this, Chu Ying frowned even tighter. It was obvious that she still had doubts about Chen Yan's request.
So, she turned her gaze to Qi Yan again, hoping to get a clear instruction from him. Qi Yan looked serious and nodded very affirmatively.
"Okay, follow me."
Chu Ying turned around and walked forward.
Chen Yan and Qi Yan followed.
After walking for about a quarter of an hour, the view suddenly opened up and I saw several exquisite bamboo houses standing in an orderly manner in a lush green bamboo forest.
The bamboo houses are shrouded in a light mist.
Just outside the bamboo house stood an old man, dressed in a long white robe with flowing sleeves, giving him a certain air of immortality. In stark contrast to his otherworldly demeanor, his face was a sickly paleness, a colorless, ghostly hue.
When his deep eyes looked at everyone, people could not help but feel a chill running down their spines, making their hair stand on end.
"Qi Yan, who is she?!"
Yin Tai stared at Chen Yan closely, his tone full of vigilance and alertness.
Qi Yan hurriedly explained, "She is the king's friend."
Yin Tai smiled coldly, "I've never seen any friends appear around the king."
He said to Qi Yan in a stern voice: "Qi Yan, to protect the king's safety, you'd better tie up the woman next to you."
Yin Tai slowly condensed a powerful ghost power in his hands. He said expressionlessly: "If you don't want to do it, then get out of the way and let me do it!"
Seeing this, Qi Yan's face changed instantly.
He immediately took two steps forward, raised his arm to block Chen Yan behind him, and explained: "Yin Tai, Ming...Miss Chen is really the king's friend, I guarantee it with my life!"
Yin Tai's expression was grim. "Even if she is the king's friend, I would still be offended!"
Chen Yan stared at Yin Tai and said, "Are you so nervous because your king hasn't woken up yet?"
When Yin Tai heard this, his eyes instantly turned murderous. Just as he was about to gather his ghost power and attack Chen Yan—
Suddenly there was a noise coming from the bamboo house.
With a creak, the door opened.
Several people present immediately looked up and saw a slender red figure appearing outside the door. The woman looked pale, with her black hair scattered all over, adding a bit of messy beauty.
"king!"
"Why are you up?!"
Yin Tai and Chu Ying were shocked, and they quickly rushed towards the direction of the Red Spirit King.
Hong Ling raised her eyes and looked in the direction of Chen Yan. The corners of her pale lips curled up slightly, "You came to the underworld specifically to find me, your sister?"
She recognized Chen Yan, but not completely.
The Red Spirit King raised an eyebrow, and there was a smile in her voice. "Why are you wearing a mask? I haven't seen you for a long time. Come here and let me hug you."
After hearing their king's words, Yin Tai and Chu Ying looked at each other in surprise. Is this purple-clothed girl really the king's friend?!
Qi Yan immediately knelt down respectfully and saluted King Hongling.
"I am late, please forgive me, Your Majesty!"
The Red Spirit King smiled faintly and asked, "What is your crime?"
As soon as she finished speaking, she suddenly started coughing violently. With each cough, her already pale face became even paler, like a flower about to wither.
Chen Yan walked quickly towards Hong Ling.
Before Hong Ling could react, she was hugged by Chen Yan.
This sudden hug made Hong Ling slightly startled, because the Xiao Yan'er in her memory was not such a passionate and unrestrained person.
She was about to say something when she heard Chen Yan's voice.
"Honghong."
When Hong Ling heard this, her whole body stiffened instantly. She looked a little dazed and said in a trembling voice, "Call me again."
"Honghong, I'm back."
These words were like a huge rock hitting the lake of her heart, stirring up thousands of waves, and her eyes instantly became moist.
She raised her hands and hugged Chen Yan tightly.
"Ayan."
Her voice was a little choked. "You're finally back."
