This isn't the usual kind of meeting with the King of Hell, but the real meeting with the King of Hell.
If Meng Po hadn't reacted quickly and stopped him in time, Xuan Shi's palm strike would have killed Qin Yune instantly.
Meng Po led Qin Yune to the Ghost Market. As soon as they entered the street, Qin Yune found it brightly lit and bustling with activity, with many people and ghosts coming and going.
However, almost everyone who comes here is a Xuan Master.
Qin Yunie looked around curiously, but that's when the unexpected happened.
A mystic master was chasing a ghost straight toward Qin Yunie and the others.
The incident happened in an instant. When the ghost saw Qin Yune and Meng Po, it seemed to want to avoid them, but when it noticed the aura emanating from Qin Yune, fear appeared on its face.
Qin Yunie was startled.
The ghost dared not approach Qin Yunie, so it quickly dodged away. The Xuan Master who was chasing closely behind had no time to dodge and the palm wind he struck was aimed straight at Qin Yunie's face.
Qin Yunie knew in her heart that she should dodge, but her body was frozen in place and she could only subconsciously close her eyes.
Just then, Meng Po reacted quickly and pulled her away.
Because the master strategist didn't stop in time, he injured his internal organs and coughed up a mouthful of blood.
Qin Yunie stared wide-eyed in shock, looking at the scene before her with lingering fear. She secretly rejoiced that Meng Po was by her side, otherwise the consequences would have been unimaginable.
The Xuan Master wiped the blood from his mouth, glared angrily at Qin Yune, and demanded, "Who is your master? Didn't your master tell you not to come to the Ghost Market if you haven't learned your skills properly, or you'll risk your life and harm yourself and others?!"
Upon hearing this, Qin Yunie immediately thought that she was just an ordinary person who knew nothing, and wondered if she really shouldn't have come to the Ghost Market.
But this thought only lasted for a moment before she became even more determined. She came here to change herself, to experience things she had never been able to before, and to see if there was anything that could make her more capable.
She needs to become stronger so that she can avoid such situations next time!
Moreover, it wasn't her fault in the first place. This Xuan Master was chasing her in the street and almost accidentally injured her. Instead of apologizing, he questioned her.
Qin Yunie was about to retort, but Meng Po, with her fiery temper, immediately became indignant upon seeing the other party's attitude. Her beautiful face turned cold. "Which sect are you from? Didn't your master tell you that there are some people in the Ghost Market that you can't afford to offend?"
Normally, in the underworld, whether they are ghosts or ghost messengers, everyone treats her with respect and courtesy. This is the first time in all these years that someone has dared to speak to her like this.
The Xuan Master was taken aback by Meng Po's impolite words. He frowned and spoke arrogantly, clearly extremely confident in his sect, saying, "Hmph! I am the 128th generation disciple of the Xuanzhen Sect! You don't even know about our Xuanzhen Sect? You are truly ignorant!"
Meng Po glanced at him casually, a disdainful smile playing on her lips, and replied indifferently, "Oh, never heard of it."
Upon hearing this, the Xuan Master's face instantly turned extremely ugly, a flash of anger and contempt in his eyes. He pointed a finger at Meng Po and said through gritted teeth, "You! You don't even know our Xuanzhen Sect! I think you're tired of living!"
Hearing his insults, Meng Po's eyes turned cold, and a chill appeared on her face. She reached out with lightning speed, grabbed his outstretched hand, and twisted it forcefully.
A crisp sound of bones breaking rang out as the Xuan Master's wrist was snapped.
Meng Po sneered, looking at the agonizing Xuan Shi, and said coldly, "You have some nerve! Even your ancestor would have to show me respect! Who do you think you are! How dare you point a finger at me! You have no sense of mortality!"
The mystic master's arm was snapped, and the intense pain contorted his face as he let out a piercing scream: "Ah—"
His voice echoed throughout the street, sending chills down people's spines.
However, this is common in the ghost market, so it did not attract much attention.
Qin Yune hissed as he listened to the screams.
It looks like it's in a lot of pain.
I never expected that Meng Po, such a beautiful woman, could be so ruthless when she gets angry.
But... he's so handsome!
She loves it!
Qin Yunie looked at Meng Po with her peach blossom eyes shining brightly. She wished she had such skills, so that when Xuan Shi spoke rudely to her just now, she could have made a move like that in a flash.
Meng Po was afraid of frightening Qin Yune, so she tried to be more reserved. Just as she turned around to see if Qin Yune was frightened and needed comforting, she met a pair of bright eyes.
Meng Po: "...??"
Why does he not look scared at all? He seems more... excited?
Meng Po hesitated before asking, "Are you... alright?"
Upon hearing Meng Po's question, Qin Yune excitedly replied, "I'm fine! Sister Meng, you were amazing just now! Could you teach me?"
Meng Po's red lips parted slightly in surprise. "Aren't you afraid?"
Qin Yune shook his head, "I'm not afraid, I actually wish I could be that powerful! That way, when something like this happens, I can take care of it myself in a couple of swift moves!"
Upon hearing this, Meng Po nodded in confusion, "That's right! It's just a bit strange, your body is much better than before."
Touching Qin Yune's body again, he said, "Hmm... Could it be that the medicine I refined this time is even more effective?"
She pondered for a moment and said, "I'll go find the Medicine Sect later to see if they've managed to refine the Golden Jade Pill."
Xuan Shi, writhing on the ground in pain, listened to the two talking as if they were ignoring each other, and a ruthless glint flashed in his eyes.
He realized that the little girl next to the woman in red was just an ordinary person. She couldn't handle the woman in red, but dealing with the little girl was a piece of cake!
If he doesn't avenge this grudge, he won't even have the face to call himself a member of the Xuanzhen Sect!
Qin Yunie nodded vigorously, "Okay!"
Then, as if remembering something, she pointed to the Xuan Master on the ground, whose face was contorted as he clutched his hand, and asked, "What about him?"
Meng Po glanced at him and said emotionlessly, "Someone will handle this."
This kind of thing is common in the ghost market; it's both safe and unsafe.
The good thing is that nothing life-threatening will happen as long as you're in the ghost market.
It's also not safe, because unless it involves life or death, law enforcement won't get involved.
Around the time the gates of hell open each year, the King of Hell arranges for some ghost messengers to patrol in order to prevent any special circumstances from occurring.
Although the ghost market is in a no-man's-land, it still has some corresponding rules and regulations.
In general, the Ghost Market is actually part of the Underworld's territory, and if special or major events occur, the King of Hell will have to take charge.
