"Yes, only the Lord of the Underworld can open the Ghost Gate. I am too narrow-minded. I didn't even guess it."
Wen Chenxi was completely dejected, with his head drooping and a dazed look on his face.
“No wonder Wen Xi has such great abilities, able to deal with the ghosts in the ghost realm and save us!”
Xiao Shaoyan murmured to himself, a darkness in the depths of his eyes, and his hanging hands clenched silently. He could feel that the gap between him and Wen Xi was getting wider and wider.
"No wonder you were able to make so many ghosts submit without a contract. Lord of the Underworld, it's almost as if they covet the power and position around you."
Tie Ruonan sighed softly, feeling that she had seen the truth, and the look in her eyes when she looked at Wen Xi was filled with more awe.
Wen Jianghan's entire body tensed up as he suddenly realized something, "Such a big thing happened back then. Could this be her chance?"
Wen Xi blinked her beautiful eyes innocently and said, "Why are you all looking at me like that? I am indeed the next King of Fengdu, but so what? I am still a mortal, an ordinary person!"
Ordinary people…bullshit!
No matter whether they were humans or ghosts, everyone present couldn't help but complain in their hearts.
"The eldest lady is right. Her life span has not yet ended. It is indeed not yet time for the procedure to be carried out."
Lu Pan said something appropriate.
The Northern Ghost Emperor said, "That's why Zhai Wujiang felt he had an opportunity. Since he hadn't officially taken the throne, he wanted to intervene. After all, he felt he was the most suitable candidate."
"Tsk, you're wrong."
Wen Xi supported his chin with one hand and sneered, "An ambitious man like Zhai Wujiang wouldn't do this just because I didn't succeed him. I've already presented evidence before, haven't I? He started planning this when the underworld was in turmoil a hundred years ago. I had nothing to do with it then. He just saw that the old man's term was about to expire, so he planned it for himself."
"Now that you mention it...it seems to be true."
The Eastern Ghost Emperor lowered his head in thought and felt that what Wen Xi said made sense.
"That's how it is. I had Lu Pan and the others investigate. Many of the missing items were also found at Knock Manor. It's no wonder that this old man looks down on such a selfish guy who disregards the lives of others."
Wen Xi said, "I don't know where he learned a lot of forbidden techniques, and he also stole the dark and turbid energy and released it, causing trouble for the world! Ten Palace Lords, Five Direction Ghost Emperors, listen up! Capture him as soon as possible and imprison him in the Styx to face trial!"
"Yes, Miss!"
Immediately afterwards, a green light flashed, and the Ten True Lords of the Palace of Justice and other Ghost Emperors received orders and went to do their work.
Judge Lu clasped his fists and said, "Miss, more than half of the ghost realm in the mortal world has been destroyed, and all the evil spirits trapped within have been brought back. Most have been taken to the Eighteen Levels of Hell to be punished. Do you want to go and take a look?"
"No need, you guys can do whatever you want. The original purpose is to prevent Zhai Wujiang from opening the Ghost Gate, so it is connected to Fengdu Ghost City. People in the mortal world can't stand the ghost energy here, so they can't stay too long. I will take them back soon!"
Wen Xi stood up, walked swiftly to the flat ground, and said a few words to Lu Pan and the others.
He turned and came to Xiao Shaoyan and the others, "The underworld has issued a wanted order. They will take care of Zhai Wujiang's affairs. I will take you away."
"good!"
They looked at each other, feeling the chill that penetrated their bones, and they really couldn't stay any longer.
Wen Xi casually swept the air, golden light shone, space twisted, and a ghost gate appeared in front of them.
"The ghost gates are interconnected, so go with peace of mind."
Seeing that they were motionless and looking at her, Wen Xi walked over first, followed by Wen Chenxi and the others.
It was just a matter of closing their eyes and opening them again, and the next moment, they appeared in Knock Manor.
Nock Manor was once so exquisite and luxurious, but now it is so dilapidated. It is not just talk that it has fallen into the abyss. The original lawn has fallen into a big pit, and the nearby buildings have collapsed one after another, like ruins.
Ling Feng asked in surprise, "What on earth happened to you last night that you left this place in such a mess?"
"The person you should ask is Zhai Wujiang!"
Wen Xi called out, "Bai Yi, go and take all the dead souls and ghosts here back."
The summoned white cat jumped down from the big tree and walked with cat steps to collect souls.
"Wen Xi, Shao Yan, you finally showed up!"
Xiao Changji came over with a group of people and was relieved to see that they were safe and sound.
"What exactly happened? Wen Xi, you fell into the abyss and nothing happened? And Shao Yan, he was staying by my side just fine, how could he disappear all of a sudden?"
"It's a long story, so why don't you and your nephew talk about it later? Something's happened at Knock Manor now, and someone from the local area who handles this kind of special matter will definitely be here soon. Before that, I want to find all the ghost weapons they've hidden away!"
Wen Xi said, "And those people have all been marked by Zhai Wujiang. Captain Ling, you're going to have a lot of headaches from now on."
Ling Feng frowned and sighed melancholy.
Wow wow wow wow wow ~
The sound of birds singing could be heard outside Knock Manor, and the sun was shining on the white sky!
Three days later, Wen Xi was invited to the Special Management Bureau.
The people in the Special Management Bureau greeted her politely, but after she left, they all pointed and talked excitedly behind her.
When Wen Xi arrived at the conference room, Qin Chen, Feng Fang and others were already sitting in their seats waiting for her.
"Miss Wen, oh no, it's...Emperor Fengdu, it's been a long time."
Qin Chen changed his previous arrogant look. Seeing her coming, he stood up and smiled gently, with a hint of... disbelief in his eyes?
"Don't call me that, it's weird."
Wen Xi said speechlessly, "Just for calling me like this, I have to leave first."
"Of course not. Knok Manor has been sealed off. Since the territory is not on our side, it is not convenient for us to interfere. However, most of the assets inside were circulated by the Qin family. Qin Sheng was seriously injured because of this incident, so the family sent me to deal with it. I heard that you are very interested in the ghost weapon inside. I just want to borrow flowers to offer to Buddha and give you the ghost weapon I recovered."
Qin Chen's attitude was very good. "This can be considered as a thank you gift for helping me waste most of Qin Sheng's vitality."
"Oh? So good?"
When Wen Xi saw Ling Feng open the secret door and saw a pile of ghost weapons inside, his eyes lit up instantly and his mood improved a lot.
"Well, I'll accept this thank you gift."
Wen Xi was not polite either.
"Of course. Miss Wen is the Lord of the Underworld. It's only right that you be handed over to her."
Qin Chen hesitated and said, "We are not well-informed even about the underworld. I would like to ask if the Western Ghost Emperor has been captured. After all, he is the driving force behind Qin Sheng's actions."
