Sensing the strong smell of gunpowder on both sides, the Ghost King prepared to sneak away, but as soon as he reached the door, he saw the little guy standing in front of him. "You still owe me two punches."
The Ghost King felt a chill in his heart and silently turned around to find another way out, only to see Little Hu Hai blocking his way again. "How dare you bully your younger brother? This time I'm going to use all my strength to kill you."
The Ghost King was on the verge of tears, "I bullied him?"
God the hell is bullying me!
Don't you even think about who it is that has their soul shattered by a single punch?
He looked at Xiao Huhai with a bitter expression, "Little boy, he punched me, I didn't bully him."
Little Hu Hai snorted coldly, "You dared to hit his hand with your face when he was so young, I must teach you a lesson today!"
The Ghost King was dumbfounded, "Huh?"
Seeing this, the abbot frowned slightly. "Why does this Ghost King seem a bit strange?"
Why does she look so timid and hesitant when facing two little children?
In my memory, this ferocious ghost king was not only not afraid of children, but he was so frightening that he would make them cry just by standing there.
But now something just doesn't seem right.
The golden-robed monk on the right replied, "Perhaps he's been locked up for too long and his mind's a bit off?"
The abbot kept a calm expression and said nothing more.
This is the only possibility he can think of right now.
Otherwise, how could the mighty Ghost King, a being that strikes fear into the hearts of countless evil spirits, be in this state simply because he is afraid of two little children?
The Ghost King pondered for a moment, then suddenly lunged at Ying Liu and grabbed his leg, saying, "Master, please accept my bow!"
As he spoke, he kowtowed heavily to Ying Liu.
Ying Liu was taken aback by the Ghost King's sudden change of heart. "You're willing?"
Previously, this guy was an arrogant ghost king who would never submit to a child. His confident demeanor made Ying Liu waver, and he felt that he might not be able to defeat this guy.
The Ghost King's gaze turned serious. "Master, you possess extraordinary strength, are handsome, understanding, intelligent, resourceful, and dashing. I actually recognized you from the very first glance!"
It's definitely not because you have two such monstrous younger brothers.
Although Ying Liu was still somewhat puzzled, it was a good thing that the Ghost King was willing to submit, so he didn't ask too many questions and agreed, "Alright, then let's sign a contract."
Upon hearing this, the Ghost King's expression brightened, and his heart finally settled down. "Thank you, Master!"
Then he turned to look at the little guy and Xiao Huhai, "See? Now we're on the same side, so stop bothering me."
The little guy didn't say anything, turned his head away, but didn't seem to be making a move.
Seeing that the little guy had no intention of making a move, Xiao Huhai silently put the longsword he had half-drawn back in.
Seeing this, the abbot's eyes turned slightly cold. "An evil thing is an evil thing, and one can only associate with evil things!"
As soon as he finished speaking, Ying Zheng's eyes darkened. "He is my son. Before you speak, consider your own weight. Don't lose sight of the bigger picture and plunge the entire Hanshan Temple into crisis because of a single sentence."
The abbot's eyes flickered slightly. "Does His Majesty still intend to protect him?"
Ying Zheng snorted coldly, "Otherwise, would I be expected to side with you?"
The abbot frowned slightly and said, "Your Majesty, look carefully. The way he looks now is not the harmless son you had before. He is an extremely evil being. Just standing around him will make you feel cold because of the dense yin energy."
Ying Zheng roared, "Shut up!"
"I know better than you how he got to where he is today. You're just an old man who knows nothing. If you keep spouting nonsense, I'll slaughter your entire Hanshan Temple!"
The abbot's face turned quite ugly after being reprimanded like that.
But they dared not have a major outburst.
After all, the Qin Dynasty was able to unify the six kingdoms, so its foundation was undoubtedly solid. Whether it was its fierce generals or its powerful cavalry, they were all extremely strong in combat.
There's no benefit in confronting such a being head-on.
Moreover, according to legend, the strongest being who helped Ying Zheng unify the six kingdoms did not perish, but simply slumbered somewhere.
Many forces are wary of that existence, which is why they haven't taken any major action.
He looked at Xiaoyao and asked, "Is this the emperor that my senior brother was willing to abandon Hanshan Temple to follow?"
It was common knowledge throughout the world that Xiaoyao was highly regarded by the abbot of Hanshan Temple back then.
Even when the old abbot was still alive, he passed the position of abbot to him, making him the de facto abbot of Hanshan Temple.
Even so, Xiaoyao chose to give up his position as abbot, leave Hanshan Temple, and follow Ying Zheng.
This matter caused a great uproar. Those who knew the inside story couldn't understand what charm Ying Zheng possessed that could make Xiaoyao give up his position as abbot of Hanshan Temple to follow him.
Xiaoyao met his gaze, his expression unwavering. "Your Majesty is absolutely right."
Others may not know what Ying Liu went through, but Xiao Yao has seen it all and knows how difficult it was for him.
Mingming was a kind child who only wanted to live an ordinary life with his mother, but he was haunted by evil spirits and had to be separated from his mother.
Because Consort Liang spent her days in tears and was depressed, her health deteriorated day by day.
The child also had to endure loneliness, reciting Buddhist scriptures alone every day, staying away from people, for fear of bringing misfortune to others.
They even had to go through life-or-death trials to finally have the ability to live a good life.
But now, someone has actually jumped out and said that he is an evil creature and wants to kill him?
Xiaoyao felt it was utterly outrageous.
The abbot snorted coldly, "Has Senior Brother been in this palace for too long and been assimilated?"
Xiaoyao glared at him, "You old bald monk, get out of here while I'm still speaking politely, or I'll be very rude to you!"
As soon as he finished speaking, a faint Buddhist light appeared around him, and his aura surged, unleashing an extraordinary momentum.
