"What if you were the one who sent them?" the battalion commander muttered under his breath.
"Ahem, it seems this brother has some doubts about my character. Looks like you're quite conscious of your actions!" Yang Jifeng looked at the battalion commander beside him, who didn't seem angry at all. He then prepared to pat the battalion commander on the shoulder again, but the battalion commander dodged it!
But the battalion commander looked pained, and then thick smoke slowly began to rise from his body. In just a few breaths, the battalion commander, right before everyone's eyes, went from a living person to a pile of blackened ashes...
"Yang Jifeng! What do you mean by this? Are you trying to intimidate our Longxia Kingdom?" Old Xia roared angrily at Yang Jifeng.
"Uncle Xia, please don't be angry. I can't stand people wronging me, so I couldn't help but teach him a lesson. But I forgot that he's an ordinary person. Ordinary people are so fragile. I could have killed him by accident. I'm so sorry!" Yang Jifeng said apologetically.
"Yang Jifeng! Stop acting crazy in front of us. Say what you have to say quickly. We have important things to do," General Xu said.
"Uncle Xu, I know what you're discussing, it's Langcheng, right? To be honest, I'm also very interested in Langcheng. Why don't we discuss it together?" After Yang Jifeng finished speaking, he completely ignored the permission of the leaders of Longxia Kingdom and sat down next to Elder Xia, putting his feet on the conference room table in a very arrogant manner!
"Very well, since Jifeng has come all the way from America to help us solve our problems, we can't just turn him away. After all, we're still family behind closed doors. But Jifeng, let me tell you, you know about the situation in Langcheng. It's nominally under the jurisdiction of our Longxia Kingdom, but it's already out of our control. There are so many supernatural beings and criminals there, it's a mixed bag. You should also know that Ruhuan and his two spirit slaves are no longer in Langcheng. We're afraid that Langcheng will suddenly get out of control and harm innocent people!" Old Xia said with a solemn expression.
"Uncle Xia, I know all about what you've said. If the master of Langcheng were still alive, I wouldn't have come back to die. I came back this time because I was afraid that Langcheng would suddenly get out of control. Although I, Yang Jifeng, am not as good as Brother Shan Lang, nor do I have Uncle Bai's foresight, I believe I can subdue all the evil spirits in Langcheng!" Yang Jifeng said with great confidence.
“Little Yang! You probably don’t know what happened after you went to America, do you? The Shangguan family is now the agent of Langcheng, and they have a monopoly in Langcheng. If we go to Langcheng now, won’t Shangguan Qiangwei of the Shangguan family think we’re taking advantage of our misfortune?” an old man said.
“Survival of the fittest is the law of nature. This world is a dog-eat-dog world. So our trip to Langcheng is in accordance with the natural order. All the good things and resources in the world belong to the capable. So there is no such thing as taking advantage of someone’s misfortune or kicking someone when they are down. Besides, we are just a group of ordinary people. What right do we have to compete with us extraordinary people? Don’t you agree?” Yang Jifeng said.
"Yes, yes, I think so too. Xiao Feng is absolutely right. It is our Xiao Feng who is so dedicated to our Longxia Kingdom. Since Xiao Feng is so interested in Langcheng, then we will ask you to go to Langcheng. Don't worry, as long as you take back Langcheng, you can take the resources first, and the rest will be our Longxia Kingdom's. Xiao Feng, what do you think?" Old Xia looked at Xiao Feng with a smile, appearing very satisfied.
"Alright, since you all want to be the good guys, then I'll be the bad guy! Don't worry, within half a month, I'll hand Langcheng over to you completely!" Yang Jifeng said with a confident look, then disappeared from his chair, leaving only the leaders of Longxia Kingdom looking at each other...
"Sister Rose, what's the matter that you called me over in such a hurry?" A young man knocked on the door and then opened it after receiving permission from inside.
"You're Amumu Zhen? You look quite young. Work hard with me from now on, and I, Brother Feng, will definitely not treat you unfairly!" A young man sat in the seat that was originally Shangguan Qiangwei's, with his feet propped up on the desk, and said very confidently.
"Sister Qiangwei, which mental hospital did this lunatic escape from? How dare he come to the Shangguan Group in Langcheng to act crazy? Did he forget to take his medicine before leaving? Is he that sick?" Amumu looked at the young man and asked Shangguan Qiangwei, who had a bitter expression on her face.
“A child is still a child. Haven’t you grasped the situation yet? I, Yang Jifeng, your brother Feng, represent the Longxia Kingdom to take over Langcheng!” Yang Jifeng stood up, placed his hands on the table, leaned forward slightly, and looked at Amumuzhen with a smile.
"Hahaha... You? Representing the Dragon Xia Kingdom? And you even have the audacity to take over Langcheng? Even Bai Xiaochun wouldn't dare say that! Who gave you the courage and confidence? How much fake alcohol did you drink to dare to say such arrogant and conceited words?"
“Mu Zhen, Brother Feng is right. He really did come to reclaim Langcheng. He really came on behalf of the Longxia Kingdom,” Shangguan Qiangwei said with a bitter expression.
"It seems that since our boss hasn't caused any trouble for so long, the Dragon Xia Kingdom thinks that our boss is easy to manipulate? Aren't they afraid that our boss will wipe out the entire Dragon Xia Kingdom in one fell swoop?" Amumu asked with some doubt.
"Hehe, little kid, you don't know yet, do you? Ruhuan, the master of Langcheng and Bai Xiaochun are all in the past. They've died in the Yellow Springs Hell and can't come back. Now I'm the new master of Langcheng, which means I'm your new boss. I'm a little thirsty now, go get me the first cup of water!" Yang Jifeng looked at Amumu and gave the order with a smile on his face.
"Even if Ru Huan and the others are dead and gone, it's not your place to be the master of Langcheng!" Amumu said fearlessly to Yang Jifeng.
"Oh ho? I didn't expect that in such a short time, Ru Huan would have such a loyal dog, such a loyal lackey. Tsk tsk tsk... It seems that Ru Huan does have some tricks up her sleeve." Yang Jifeng slowly walked up to Amumuzhen and prepared to raise his hand to pat Amumuzhen's shoulder!
"Hmm?" Yang Jifeng looked at the boy who looked only fourteen or fifteen years old with some surprise. He had imagined using the same trick as in front of the leaders of Tiandu, trying to make an example of this hothead. But he didn't expect that he couldn't bring himself to do it!
"What? You want to use me as a scapegoat to establish your authority right from the start? Do you want to die?" Amumu looked at Yang Jifeng calmly. Some people had mentioned it before, but he didn't expect that this exiled bastard would see what happened to Ru Huan and Bai Xiaochun in Langcheng and was preparing to make a comeback and act arrogantly.
"An extraordinary person?" Yang Jifeng was surprised. He thought that the Shangguan family was just a bunch of ordinary people and small fry, not worth worrying about at all. But it seemed that he had encountered a formidable opponent on his first visit here.
“I don’t know anything about any superhumans. I’m the CEO of the Shangguan Group. I can’t control what you do in Langcheng. If you want to cause trouble in the Shangguan Group or the Shangguan family, you’d better give up that idea. Otherwise, you won’t even have a chance to escape back to America!” Amumu said to Yang Jifeng.
"Oh! Is that so? Then I'll be right here now, and I'm going to start causing trouble. What can you do to me?" After Yang Jifeng finished speaking, a flame appeared in his palm, and he looked at Amumuzhen with a sinister smile.
"Looks like you really want to die here!" Amumu Zhen looked at Yang Jifeng's arrogant and unruly appearance and decided to teach him a lesson!
With a deafening roar, the entire Shangguan Group office building shook violently, threatening to collapse. Everyone working inside was terrified; another fight had broken out upstairs!
Yang Jifeng is in a very bad situation. He thought that without Ru Huan, Hyena and Li Xia, Shan Lang and Bai Xiaochun, he could turn the world upside down and dominate the country. But he didn't expect to have such a bad start as soon as he arrived in Langcheng. The Shangguan family gave him a big blow and he was humiliated by a little kid.
"I told you, you can cause trouble in Langcheng, but if you want to cause trouble in the Shangguan Group and the Shangguan family, you won't even have a chance to escape back to America!" Amumu pressed down on Yang Jifeng's neck and slammed the half-meter-long jade ruler in his hand hard against Yang Jifeng's head!
"Muzhen, forget it. Team Leader Yang was forced to come here. We might cooperate in the future and develop Langcheng together. Let's just have a friendly exchange and not hurt our harmony!" Just then, Shangguan Qiangwei stopped Amumuzhen.
"Cough cough cough..." Yang Jifeng coughed violently, gasping for air. He had just been on the verge of death and almost went to see his great-grandmother. He could almost see his great-grandfather and great-grandmother coming to pick him up!
"Team Leader Yang, is there anything else? Would you like me to have the executive officer take you on a tour of our Shangguan Group?" Shangguan Qiangwei asked Yang Jifeng with a smile.
"Hmph!" Yang Jifeng snorted coldly, glanced at Shangguan Qiangwei and Amumu Zhen with a livid face, and then left Shangguan Group without looking back...
"Sister Qiangwei, why did you stop me just now? This kind of person shouldn't be allowed to live. We've already offended him. Aren't you afraid he'll retaliate against us later?" Amumu asked Shangguan Qiangwei with a puzzled look. This Yang Jifeng seemed to be a vengeful person. If he let the tiger return to the mountain this time, there would be endless trouble in the future!
"I just don't want to be used as a tool to kill someone else," Shangguan Qiangwei said thoughtfully.
"Knife, are you saying someone wants to use us to kill Yang Jifeng?"
"Sister Rose, what should we do if something really happens to the boss and the others?" Amumu asked blankly.
"What kind of event do you think could happen to a deity like the boss, who can destroy the world, that would prevent her from returning?" Shangguan Qiangwei asked rhetorically.
"I feel like the boss is fishing, letting those who are eager to take over Langcheng come out, and then killing them all, just like those hidden sects in the past!" Amumu suddenly understood.
Shangguan Qiangwei nodded, then looked at the towering buildings of Langcheng and fell into deep thought...
"Did you do this on purpose?" Yang Jifeng asked, looking at Elder Xia and the others with a hostile expression.
"What do you mean, was it intentional? What happened, Xiao Yang? Didn't you go to Langcheng? You resolved it so quickly? Young people are so efficient and decisive, much faster than us old folks!" Old Xia said, looking at Yang Jifeng with admiration.
"I'll curse your grandma's leg!" Yang Jifeng cursed inwardly, but he didn't dare to say it out loud. On the way back, he finally realized that he had been tricked by these old bastards and used as a stepping stone. Yang Jifeng was now filled with anger and had nowhere to vent it!
"You can't possibly not know about that guy named Amumu next to Shangguan Qiangwei, right?" Yang Jifeng looked at these old geezers with a dangerous expression. He wished he could kill them all. He had returned from America full of confidence and high spirits after hearing the news, only to be tricked by these old geezers as soon as he got back.
What's most infuriating is that after I returned from my setback, these old geezers acted as if they knew nothing and had an innocent look on their faces, which made me even angrier!
"Little Yang, you know Ru Huan. When she was around, how could we dare to send anyone to Langcheng? You're abroad, so you know what happened last time, right? Fang Qingguan killed so many of our Longxia Kingdom's secret sects that they all shut down. How could we ordinary people dare to go to Langcheng?" Old Xia said with a wry smile.
When Yang Jifeng heard the name Fang Qingguan, it felt like a bucket of cold water had been poured over him. He had been too complacent and had forgotten that there was a killing god in the Shangguan Group. But he never expected that this killing god was so young!
If it weren't for Shangguan Qiangwei's intervention, would I still be here arguing with these old folks? I might already be seeing my great-grandmother! Thinking about it now gives me the chills.
However, he was unwilling to give up. Now that Ru Huan and the others were not in Langcheng, he could at least make some profits there, even if he didn't want to be the master of Langcheng! Yang Jifeng changed his mind and then stopped pursuing the matter.
Seeing Yang Jifeng leave with a thoughtful expression, Old Xia and the other old men exchanged glances, then grinned silently...
Since I can't run into the Shangguan Group, but there are so many other things in Langcheng besides the Shangguan Group that I can choose from, Yang Jifeng comforted himself, but he didn't care about these ordinary people's things right now.
The Star-Picking Tower! Yes! It's the Star-Picking Tower!
Ru Huan and the others have already left, and they must have left behind a lot of treasures. Going to the Star-Picking Tower would be much more worthwhile than annexing the Shangguan Group. However, he is afraid that Ru Huan has already set a trap inside the Star-Picking Tower. If he falls into the trap as soon as he enters, he might not only lose the treasures, but also his life.
"Damn it, I'll risk it! Fortune favors the bold! The daring get rich, the cowardly starve! If I get in there and come out alive, I might become as powerful as Li Xia and the Hyena!" Yang Jifeng encouraged himself, then took out his phone and started dialing an international number...
"Hehe, this little brat really can't sit still anymore, he's starting to set his sights on the Star-Picking Tower!" Old Xia said with a smile.
"Do you think this little brat will succeed?"
"Hehe, heavenly secrets cannot be revealed, cannot be spoken, cannot be spoken!" Old Xia said with a profound and unfathomable expression.
"Sister Rose, Yang Jifeng is planning to infiltrate the Star-Picking Tower. Should we stop him?" Amumu asked.
"Hehe, another one who's good at courting death. Let him go. It's quite an achievement that he came out alive. Our main concern now is to guard against those people who are eyeing us and lurking in the shadows. Now that we don't have Ruhuan's protection, we have to solve everything ourselves and bear everything on our own!" Shangguan Qiangwei said.
“Yes, I know that,” Amumu said.
Yin-Yang Road
A thick stench of blood permeated the dim gray fog. The cratered ground looked as if it had been blasted into bottomless pits by a meteorite that had fallen from the sky. Limbs and broken weapons were scattered everywhere, and small flames flickered on the ground.
At the very end of this mountain of corpses and sea of blood, a tall and majestic city wall stood amidst the drifting gray mist, like a giant beast crouching on the ground, ready to leap up and attack at any moment.
"This Yin-Yang Road isn't a road? It's a city?" The hyena looked at the city wall in front of it with some surprise and voiced the question in its mind.
"It seems this place is different from the legends of the human world. The Yin-Yang Road is not a road leading to the Netherworld, but a city!" Li Xia was also somewhat surprised.
"Master, what do we do now? Should we continue fighting?" The hyena was excited, feeling that it hadn't had enough of the fight yet. The creatures it had encountered were too weak and couldn't possibly fight it for three hundred rounds.
"Hit!" Ru Huan said softly.
"Alright!" Hearing that its master had given the order, the hyena immediately spurred the lynx and galloped towards the opposite city wall!
"Ru Huan, what do you want here?" Bai Xiaochun looked at Ru Huan and felt that this little girl was not here to help him save people, but had other purposes.
"I came here seeking an answer, though I don't know if the answer lies here!" Ru Huan said, watching the hyena gallop away in a cloud of dust.
"Here he comes! Prepare!" The creatures atop the city walls were enraged to see a lone figure riding a lynx charging towards them. They felt their very existence had been utterly insulted! They were determined to crush this arrogant intruder beneath their walls!
"Blazing Flames!" the hyena roared! Countless Vermilion Birds and Golden Crows rose from behind him, their bodies engulfed in raging flames as they soared into the sky!
The Vermilion Bird and Golden Crow, blotting out the sky, were like blazing suns, illuminating the dim sky with extraordinary brightness! Waves of heat swept away all the gray fog, and a majestic city appeared before everyone's eyes!
The creatures on the city wall were blinded by the sudden burst of intense light, and felt as if they were about to be melted by the terrifying yang fire, unable to resist it at all!
With a loud "bang," the heavy city gate was shattered by an ice bullet as thick as a round table! In less than a breath, the city of Yin Yang Road was breached by Ru Huan and her group!
All the creatures inside hid in the shadows, not daring to come out at all. The divine birds in the sky were scorching the entire city with their blazing flames. If these creatures went out, they would be burned directly by the scorching yang fire!
"Where is your city lord? I want to see him!" Ru Huan asked, looking at a creature that Li Xia had dragged over.
"Our city lord is not here; he's still in the gates of hell!" the creature replied tremblingly.
"The Gates of Hell? Is this really the Yellow Springs Hell?" Ru Huan asked.
"Yes, but it's not the real Yellow Springs Hell. We just gave it such a terrifying name to scare intruders like you. We hope that you creatures will be afraid of us so that we can be safe!"
"Can you go to the Yellow Springs Road in the Netherworld from here?"
"I don't know, I'm just a lowly soldier, I don't know anything!" the creature replied tremblingly.
"Then do you know where the Gate of Hell is?" the hyena asked.
"It's still two or three hundred miles from here, but... but..." The creature stammered, as if it had some unspeakable secret.
"Is there something you can't say? Or are you trying to hide something? Believe me or not, I'll turn you to ashes right now!" The hyena roared as it watched the creature stammer and hesitate.
"I dare not deceive the God, but the road ahead is extremely dangerous, because on the way to the Gate of Hell, we must pass through the City God, the River of Oblivion, and the Other Shore. Only after crossing the Other Shore can we reach the Gate of Hell."
"But the creatures in these three places are extremely vicious. They come to our borderlands every time to capture us and make us their slaves and ghouls. My sister and younger sister were captured by them!" the creature said through gritted teeth.
"Okay, we'll kill them for you when we pass by. Alright, you can go now!" Ru Huan said, looking at the creature.
"I... can I go with you? I want to see if my sister and younger sister are still alive!" The creature looked at Ru Huan and the others with a pleading expression.
"What's the use of going? Even if your sister and younger sister are still alive, and we rescue them, can you protect them from being captured by these villains?" Li Xia said, looking at the creature.
"I am willing to be your servants, as long as you can take my sister and younger sister away, we will serve you for all eternity!" the creature pleaded, kneeling on the ground.
"Get out of my way, you think you're so great!" The hyena kicked the creature away, then rode the lynx ahead to clear the way, with Ru Huan, Li Xia, and Bai Xiaochun following behind.
"Why don't we agree to him?" Bai Xiaochun finally blurted out after holding it in for a long time.
"Looks like there's still an honest man here! Heh, you really believe what this creature says? Can you read minds? At your age, don't you know the saying 'the road is slippery when it's dark, and society is complicated'?" The hyena looked at Bai Xiaochun with disdain, wondering how this old man could be so simple-minded and naive.
“Hyena is right. Don’t trust anyone easily in this unfamiliar place. You’ll either be used or schemed against. Why invite unnecessary trouble?” Li Xia said.
The four people and three lynxes slowly left the city called Yin Yang Road...
"Spirit Lord, what do we do now? Should we just let them leave like this?" One being asked, looking at another being after Ru Huan and the others had already gone far away.
"Let them pass first, and once they start fighting with the City God and his men up ahead, we'll launch a pincer attack! Then I'll make sure they can't escape!" the creature said with a sinister look. So many of his companions had died on the Yin-Yang Path, and he had to vent his anger!
"But he doesn't seem to be faking it," Bai Xiaochun said, still trusting her intuition.
"Yes! Yes, yes, you're right, everything you said is correct!" The hyena stopped talking and walked forward...
"Master, the City God has arrived!" The hyena in front saw a city wall faintly visible in the dim fog.
“Okay! Tell them to have their city lord come over so I can ask him a few questions. After that, we’ll leave!” Ru Huan said.
"Yes!" The hyena rode the lynx slowly to the foot of the city wall, but there was no one there, and the city gate was wide open!
"Be careful, it might be a scam!" Bai Xiaochun warned.
"I'm more afraid he's not bluffing than that he is!" The hyena chuckled, then walked towards the city.
The four of them passed through the city, which was completely devoid of life, not even a single breath could be heard; it was like a dead city.
"What if they're scared off by us and just abandon the city and run away?" The hyena was a bit dumbfounded. It had originally planned to make a big splash, but this was the result.
“Keep going, to the River of Oblivion!” Ru Huan said.
An hour later,
Ru Huan and the others arrived at a vast river with no end in sight. The water was extremely murky and emitted a nauseating smell of blood!
Just as Ru Huan and her three companions were preparing to fly across the River of Oblivion, a dark mass of creatures suddenly surged toward them from the direction of the City God!
"Hehe, God, we meet again," a being greeted Ru Huan and the others with a smile.
"Is this your intuition?" The hyena looked at Bai Xiaochun with a mocking expression.
Bai Xiaochun's face was flushed and looked terrible. His eyes were fixed on the creature as if they were about to breathe fire.
"That's a good idea, but I don't know if you creatures have the ability to kill us here," Li Xia said with a smile as she looked at the creatures that were closing in.
"Now you have nowhere to escape! Either surrender, or jump into the River of Oblivion to feed the evil spirits. If you want us to chop you into pieces and throw you in, that's fine too," said a creature with two heads, each topped with horns like those of a goat.
"Heh, so you mean we're going to fight to the death? Are you coming one by one or all at once? I advise you to come at once! You may not have been born on the same day, but you can die on the same day, month, and year!" The hyena said, laughing as it looked at the creatures.
"Just the four of you plus three beasts? You dare to talk so big to us? Aren't you a little too confident?" the two-headed creature asked.
"Whether you're confident or not, you'll have to try it first. Should you go first, me first, or both of us together?" the hyena asked, looking at Lixia.
"Let's go together! We still need to cross the river to see what's on the other side," Li Xia said, adjusting her glasses.
"Alright! Master, please wait a moment, Lixia and I will be right back!" After the hyena finished speaking, it patted the lynx beneath it. The lynx let out a strange cry and then transformed into a bolt of lightning, charging towards the opposing camp!
Li Xia was not to be outdone, and rode her lynx and hyena to attack the other side from the left and right!
A burst of blazing flames erupted! A burst of icy flames burst forth! The creatures opposite began to be harvested in droves by the icy flames and blazing flames of Lixia and the hyenas, without even a chance to scream!
Countless crystal-clear creatures condensed and formed around Li Xia, appearing continuously and rushing towards the creatures opposite like a raging wave!
The hyenas were not to be outdone; countless fire-breathing figures appeared around them, wielding flaming blades and slashing towards the enemy...
"Kill!" Bai Xiaochun's blood boiled with excitement. With a roar, he swung his two sharp claws and charged out with the hyena and Li Xia's clones... The two-headed City God leader and the leader of the Yin-Yang Path were terrified to see that most of their subordinates had been killed or wounded in less than a quarter of an hour. While ordering their men to fight to the death, they were also thinking about how to make these two ferocious demons surrender.
Just when the two were at their wits' end, they suddenly saw a very weak-looking creature sitting on a lynx by the river. It looked so helpless, all alone there, giving them a chance to take advantage of the situation!
The two leaders exchanged a glance, understanding each other's thoughts. They began directing their own bone vultures and birds to seize the opportunity to ambush the two ferocious-looking men below, while the two leaders themselves led a group of elites stealthily and furtively toward where Ru Huan was...
Ru Huan watched as a group of sneaky creatures, like thieves, circled stealthily above her head, preparing to deliver a fatal blow. To embolden them, Ru Huan pretended to be weak, trembling, and terrified...
"Whoosh..." A raptor swooped down towards Ru Huan! Its sharp claws reached for Ru Huan's head! Ru Huan stumbled and narrowly avoided the raptor's attack.
"Ah..." Ru Huan let out a scream, then looked at the sky in great terror, her whole body trembling violently.
"Damn it! They're trying to capture our sister! We have to go back and save her!" The hyena and Lixia growled and began to shake off the creatures, preparing to rescue their 'sister'.
The two leaders hurriedly ordered their subordinates to desperately hold back the three creatures that were on the verge of madness. As long as they could grasp this 'weak point,' they could control these creatures.
The hyena, Lixia, and Bai Xiaochun charged left and right. At first, Bai Xiaochun didn't understand what was going on or why they had to go to rescue Ruhuan. Later, he realized that these creatures were desperately intercepting the three of them because they wanted to capture Ruhuan and then threaten them, making them hesitant to act and allowing them to manipulate them.
"This group of old sixes is really going to kill this bunch of creatures!" Bai Xiaochun exclaimed as he, Li Xia, and the hyena, who seemed very anxious but were actually slowly killing the creatures that surrounded them!
The two leaders were extremely anxious as they watched their creatures being overwhelmed by the frenzied slaughter of the three creatures. Every time their raptors seemed about to succeed, the weak and helpless creatures would narrowly escape.
"Don't be cowards, let's attack together!" The two leaders immediately stepped onto the field, leading their raptors and one of their subordinate eagles to swoop down towards Ru Huan...
"What... what happened?" The two leaders were dumbfounded, standing there in a daze, not daring to move. All of their more than two hundred raptors and elites had been reduced to dust, not even a complete claw was left. They hadn't even seen how this creature had done it!
"What's in this river?" Ru Huan asked coldly, looking at the two leaders of Yin Yang Road and City God.
"Hmph! Do with me as you please, but don't even think about getting anything out of us!" The city god's leader was very tough.
"I didn't intend to ask!" After saying that, Ru Huan stretched out a finger and poked it directly into the City God's forehead...
The City God's other head howled in agony, while the head whose head had been poked in by Ru Huan's finger began to roll its eyes back and tremble uncontrollably.
"Shut up!" Ru Huan slapped the still excruciating head, smashing it to pieces!
"So that's how it is!" Ru Huan withdrew her fingers from the head of the City God leader, who was already dead beyond any doubt, and said softly.
"I'll tell you everything, please don't kill me!" The leader of the Yin-Yang Road was completely scared. All his subordinates, including the City God, had been killed, leaving only himself. The three creatures and two lynxes were already walking towards him!
"I don't think I need it. The City God knows far more information than you do," Ru Huan said calmly.
"I also know things that the City God doesn't know. If you spare me, I'll tell you everything!" The leader of the Yin-Yang Road was about to bargain when a sharp claw pierced his stomach!
"Even now that things are like this, haven't you seen reality yet? Are you still going to try to bargain? Where are your sister and younger sister? I'll go and rescue them for you right now!" Bai Xiaochun looked at the leader of Yin Yang Road with resentment, and the second claw in her hand stabbed into the leader's waist!
"Ah... I was wrong, I shouldn't have lied to you. I'll do whatever you want, I don't want to die!" The leader of the Yin-Yang Path screamed in agony.
"Too late," Bai Xiaochun said, pulling out the sharp claw that had been stuck in the waist of the Yin-Yang Road leader, and then stabbing it into the creature's head...
Ru Huan and her group arrived at the riverbank and stepped directly into the murky water. The lynx's four hooves touched the water and it didn't sink at all, as if it were walking on flat ground, as it walked towards the other side...
"Didn't the spirits of the City God say that there are evil spirits in this river? Why didn't any evil spirits come out to stop us when we walked on it?" Bai Xiaochun asked, looking puzzled.
"I may not be very smart, but I'm not stupid. You've already destroyed the Yin-Yang Road and the City God. If I come out to cause trouble now, it's either reckless or stupid. As long as you don't bother me, that's fine," the evil spirit hiding at the bottom of the river muttered to itself without moving.
Ru Huan and her group crossed the river safely and arrived at the other side. As soon as they got ashore, a group of creatures came towards them in a grand procession, beating drums and gongs, as if they were welcoming some kind of being.
"Hehe, timing is everything! Look, we just arrived and they're already having a feast. We can eat here as soon as we get here. I wonder if the feast here is the same as the one back home!" said the hyena.
The welcoming party approached from afar and soon arrived in front of Ru Huan and her group. A creature that looked like a badger walked over and bowed deeply to Ru Huan and her companions.
"Welcome, Your Excellency, to our Gate of Hell! We are deeply honored. Your Excellencies, we have prepared your divine carriages. Please ascend the carriages!" The creature, which looked about 1.78 meters tall and resembled a badger, spoke very respectfully through mental resonance.
"Gate of Hell? Heh heh, we don't have that saying. Once you enter the Gate of Hell, there's no turning back!" The hyena said, looking at the badger-like creature with a hostile expression.
"If the God feels that the name of this Gate of Hell is unpleasant or ominous, we will ask the God to bestow a name upon us. From now on, we, these beings, will be the God's most loyal servants!" The badger-like creature adopted a very humble posture.
"We don't care what you call us, I just want to ask you, do you have a passage to the real Yellow Springs Road?" Ru Huan asked, looking at the creature that looked like a badger.
"The real road to the underworld? No, if I were to see it, I would have no chance or honor to greet Your Majesty here!" the badger-like creature replied.
"Have you captured a few creatures like us here?" Bai Xiaochun asked, looking at the creature that resembled a badger.
"No, no, no... no! We are too busy admiring and worshipping a being as divine as the God, how could we possibly commit such a taboo as capturing him? Besides, we don't have the guts!" The creature that looked like a badger answered in great fear.
"It's best if it's not! Otherwise, this place will truly become a death trap!" Bai Xiaochun said.
"This is pointless, let's go back!" Ru Huan looked at these creatures, feeling somewhat disheartened, and prepared to return to Langcheng.
"Won't you gods rest at your servants' place? We have prepared divine delicacies and celestial wines to welcome you!" The creature that looked like a badger saw Ru Huan and the others turn to leave and hurriedly extended a very sincere invitation.
