Chapter 196 Underworld Mutation



When the four Li brothers saw that the dark spots on the old man's abdomen had all disappeared, and that his overall condition had improved a lot, even making him look a few years younger, they immediately bowed and thanked Ye Ming.

"Thank you, Uncle Ye Ming! Thanks to you, my father was able to fully recover so quickly!"

When Ye Ming received the bows of thanks from the four Li brothers, his face remained expressionless and very calm. The old man glanced at the clock on the wall and saw that it was almost 1:30 in the morning, so he quickly told everyone to go back and rest.

"Grandpa, may I stay here with you today?"

It was Li Muhao who spoke first. He had already seen the puzzled look in his father Li Qirui's eyes. If he went back with his father, he would definitely ask him why he was there in the middle of the night. He had no way to explain it. He couldn't very well say that he was catching ghosts.

The old man of the Li family looked up at his eldest son, Li Qirui, and frowned when he saw that Li Qirui looked like he wanted to teach Li Muhao a lesson. Then he nodded to Li Muhao.

"You can sleep here tonight. You guys should go back to sleep too, you all have things to do tomorrow!"

The fourth brother, Li Qichen, and his second brother bid farewell to the old man and the old woman, and then left Li Qicheng's villa together. When they left, Li Qicheng kept trying to persuade Li Qichen to stay and sleep there that night, but Li Qichen left the villa quickly, giving the impression that he was running away.

"Luckily we ran fast. I have a feeling that the lord must have killed another powerful evil spirit tonight. The ghostly aura on his body hasn't completely disappeared yet."

After getting away from Li Qicheng's villa, the unlucky guy sitting on Li Qichen's shoulder looked like he had just escaped a disaster, patting his chest and looking back from time to time.

Before Li Qichen could speak, the unlucky ghost suddenly shrank into Li Qichen's body, and Li Qichen could even sense that something was wrong with the unlucky ghost.

"What's wrong? Who's here again?"

Li Qichen thought the unlucky guy had sensed some important person, so he asked out of curiosity. He only heard the unlucky guy wailing in his mind, while intermittently telling Li Qichen to hurry back to Li Qicheng's villa.

"Go back quickly and stay with that person or Yanbao's aunt. Don't go out and wander around."

After saying that, all that remained in Li Qichen's mind was the wail of the unlucky guy.

When Li Qichen knocked on the door of Li Qicheng's villa, his two older brothers had already gone home, and it seemed that the old man and the old woman were already asleep.

"What's wrong?"

Li Qicheng had already given the servants the night off, so only Li Qicheng could open the door. As soon as he opened the door, he saw that his fourth brother, Li Qichen, looked a little flustered, and even had fine beads of sweat on his forehead.

"Brother, I'll sleep here tonight. Is Uncle Ye Ming still here?"

"I'm here. Come in quickly. Why don't you sleep in this room on the first floor tonight?"

Li Qicheng was pointing to the room right next to Ye Ming's. Upon seeing this, Li Qichen quickly walked towards that room, turning back to instruct his third brother:

"Brother, don't go out tonight, go to bed early!"

Li Qicheng was already used to Li Qichen's eccentric behavior, so he didn't pay much attention to it and simply closed the villa door and returned to his room.

Soon, most of the lights in the Li Family Manor were turned off, and everyone fell asleep. Only Xiao Yanbao and Li Muhao arrived at the first-floor living room on time as agreed by Ye Ming.

Where are we going?

Like a curious child, Li Muhao looked at Ye Ming and cautiously asked a question.

Xiao Yanbao was also very curious, and quietly watched Ye Ming, waiting for him to tell her where they were going today.

Ye Ming waved his hand and created a virtual scene in the center of the living room. The scene inside looked very chaotic. A surging river was winding across a black land, and the turbid river water was roaring and rushing into the distance.

Numerous black shadows floated on both banks of the river, and every now and then, all sorts of claws would emerge from the surface, trying to grab the shadows on the shore, but they were blocked by an invisible force.

"This is one of the River Styx, the River of Oblivion!"

The River of Oblivion? Then there must also be the Bridge of Helplessness. Thinking of this, Li Muhao immediately spoke up:

"Is there also a Bridge of Helplessness? Is there really a Meng Po on the bridge?"

Ye Ming thought of the name Meng Po, a slight smile playing on his lips. He nodded first, then looked at Li Muhao earnestly and slowly said:

"You'll have a chance to meet her, after all, you might even work together in the future!"

Although Li Muhao didn't quite understand Ye Ming's meaning, he was filled with anticipation for Ultraman after discovering that the legendary places and locations actually existed. He didn't even bother to think about the meaning behind Li Muhao's words.

"Something's not right with this river!"

Ye Ming was about to say what their destination was for tonight, but Xiao Yanbao noticed something unusual about Wangchuan. Could it be that she had seen Wangchuan before?

Thinking of this, Ye Ming looked at Xiao Yanbao with great curiosity.

"Oh? Why do you say that?"

Xiao Yanbao carefully sensed the causal fluctuations emanating from the River of Oblivion from time to time. She couldn't quite put her finger on what was wrong, but a voice in her head kept telling her that the River of Oblivion had changed, and Xiao Yanbao's intuition was also telling her the same thing.

The River of Oblivion is no longer just a river of the underworld; it's as if the river of the underworld has gained its own consciousness, and this consciousness is full of hostility towards everything in the world.

Yes! That's the feeling, but does the River Styx really have its own consciousness? If this really happened, how could the big shots in the underworld not see it?

Thinking of this, Xiao Yanbao shook her head gently again, without answering Ye Ming's question.

“Alright, there has indeed been an accident with the River of Oblivion. You can sense that something is wrong with it, perhaps it's some kind of fate. You stay here and guard our bodies for a while, and I'll take him down there.”

As Ye Ming spoke, he pointed to Li Muhao, who seemed not to understand. Xiao Yanbao already knew that Ye Ming wanted to take Li Muhao to the underworld, but his cultivation was too weak, so Ye Ming could only use his divine soul to protect his soul. Therefore, he would have to guard the physical body left in the mortal world.

Seeing that Ye Ming only wanted him to follow him, Li Muhao felt a little nervous. He glanced at Xiao Yanbao and then quietly asked:

"Where is he taking me? And you have to keep an eye on us. Is there something wrong with our health?"

"Go downstairs!"

Below? Li Muhao was even more puzzled. He looked down at his feet and wondered if there was a basement inside the villa.

Just then, Li Qichen, who was staying on the first floor, opened the door and came out of the bedroom. He saw Ye Ming glaring coldly at the unlucky guy on Li Qichen's shoulder.

"You felt it too?"

The unlucky guy nodded slightly, then looked at Ye Ming with some worry. Ye Ming sighed softly and then turned his gaze to Li Muhao.
