Chapter 443 Missed the Opportunity
Yun Qingqing looked at him and smiled sarcastically.
"Now you want to kidnap someone from a prestigious family? Fine, I don't need those methods anyway."
Elder Peng noticed that he said "not necessary" instead of "don't use" those means. For a moment, he couldn't tell whether he felt relieved or more nervous.
Yun Qingqing took out a small black mirror, spiritual power lit up at her fingertips, and wrote something on the mirror.
After a while, a spooky aura suddenly emanated from the corner of the wall, and a strange bell sound came from somewhere.
When two ghost messengers, one black and one white, appeared from the corner of the wall, Elder Peng's legs almost went weak and he fell to his knees.
The black and white duo came in front of Yun Qingqing and bowed respectfully.
"Lord Yun summoned us two here. What's the matter?" Bai Wuchang still had his same squinting smile on his face.
Elder Hong was stunned.
Who is Yun Qingqing? The ghost messenger actually saluted her!
But he didn't have much time to think. He saw Yun Qingqing pinching her fingers together, and the formation that trapped Elder Hong suddenly emitted a suction force, sucking out Elder Hong's soul.
"Let me go...what are you going to do..." Elder Hong's soul kept struggling in the formation, but to no avail.
Bai Wuchang's eyelids jumped: "Soul-Separation Technique? This..."
Yun Qingqing nodded and said calmly:
"Don't worry, as long as his soul returns to his body within twelve hours, nothing will happen."
Bai Wuchang was still a little confused:
"But what do you mean by suddenly... arresting a living soul and coming to us?"
Hei Wuchang, who had been silent all this time, suddenly looked at Yun Qingqing and said:
"What do you want to judge, sir?"
Yun Qingqing thought to herself that it was still Hei Wuchang, who didn’t talk much but reacted quickly.
She raised her hand, grabbed Elder Hong's struggling soul and brought it to her front, smiling.
Elder Hong looked at her smile and suddenly felt creepy.
I only heard Yun Qingqing say:
"You don't need to interrogate him. The Underworld just needs to help me entertain him."
"Even if the judge has no record of what this person did, Lord Yama can probably find out with the Samsara Mirror."
"Find out what he has done and let him experience hell for a few days according to the rules of hell, and then send him back to me."
Elder Hong was so shocked when he heard these words that his soul almost flew away:
"What, what do you mean! I am a cultivator, I shouldn't go to hell after I die! And I am not dead yet! Why, why should I go to hell!"
Yun Qingqing ignored him.
However, Bai Wuchang's squinting smile, which had never changed for thousands of years, became somewhat meaningful, and he began to help him explain in a very understanding manner:
"Oh, so that's how it is~, old man, you really hit the jackpot! You actually offended Lord Yun who is in charge of the eight ghost kings. Let him personally try you!"
Bai Wuchang's voice sounded inexplicably excited.
"In fact, we, the ghost officials of the underworld, cannot touch living people, but now that your soul has left your body, you are naturally under our control."
Bai Wuchang stood aside and explained patiently, while Hei Wuchang had already hooked Elder Hong with the soul-catching rope.
Elder Hong was completely unable to struggle and was trembling all over. If his soul was not in the hands of the ghost catcher, he would have been scared to death.
He howled:
"But I am a cultivator, and I have been enlightened! I don't need to go to the underworld after I die! Why do you take me down and send me to hell?"
Bai Wuchang smiled with his eyes narrowed, and continued to speak very kindly:
"First, your soul is out of your body, not completely dead. This is a gray area for us in the underworld. Generally speaking, the underworld will not intervene in your situation, but since Lord Yun needs it, there is absolutely no problem for us to intervene!"
Bai Wuchang said this with a smile and paused.
Elder Hong was already trembling with fear and had no time to think about what went wrong.
However, Yun Qingqing raised her eyebrows and turned to look at Bai Wuchang.
"What about the second one?"
Of course I know the first one, but what about the second one with Bai Wuchang gasping for breath?
The smile on Bai Wuchang's face seemed to deepen:
"Secondly, since this is Lord Yun's order, even if it doesn't comply with the first rule, it doesn't matter. We will still do as you say."
Yun Qingqing was a little surprised:
"Oh? I have such a big reputation in the underworld?"
"That's right! But you are..." Bai Wuchang was about to answer excitedly, when suddenly Hei Wuchang, who was using the Soul-Binding Lock to pull Elder Hong, swung his arm and bumped into Bai Wuchang.
To outsiders, it seemed like he was careless, but Bai Wuchang suddenly reacted and quickly took a breath.
"Master Yun, you are the ruler of the eight ghost kings in the underworld! This rank is almost equivalent to being just below Master Yanjun in the underworld. You usually keep a low profile. If you really want to get things done, your identity is the biggest pass!"
Yun Qingqing couldn't help but blink when she heard what he said.
When he received the Ghost King Order, he just thought that from now on he would have the eight Ghost Kings to command, and he would also have the income from the power of vows of the ghost city, which would be very convenient.
I didn't expect that the holder of the Ghost King's Order had this identity. Doesn't it mean that I can walk around the underworld as I please in the future?
Bai Wuchang seemed to understand what he meant and smiled:
"Your Excellency, do not doubt it. With the Ghost King's Order, you can walk around freely in the underworld."
Yun Qingqing came back to her senses and smiled calmly:
"If that's the case, I think I'll have to find an opportunity to personally visit Lord Yan and thank him."
Bai Wuchang nodded, and together with Hei Wuchang, they captured Elder Hong's soul and prepared to leave.
Elder Hong had already collapsed. He no longer cared about anything else and just kept begging the two ghost officials to let him go and not take him to hell.
The Black and White Impermanence have been ghost messengers for many years, and what they lack the most is a heart of stone. To them, Elder Hong’s pleading is not even a noise.
Seeing this, Elder Hong had no choice but to turn to Yun Qingqing.
"Senior Yun, Lord Yun, Aunt Yun! What do you want to know? Isn't it enough for me to tell you everything? You ask these two ghost messengers to let me go, and never take me to hell! I don't want to go to hell!"
Yun Qingqing looked at him coldly:
"Oh, so you know very well what kind of fate you will suffer in hell for the evil you did before?"
Elder Hong's ghost begged for mercy even more miserably:
"I was really just possessed by a ghost for a moment. I know I was wrong. I am willing to tell you everything I know now! Please have mercy on me and forgive me!"
Yun Qingqing looked at him with cold eyes, and her smile made him even more terrified:
"I gave you a chance before to tell the truth, but you missed it. Now there is no chance."
Yun Qingqing curled her lips and sneered:
"Go to hell and redeem yourself for a few days. After you come back from the underworld, I can give you another chance to confess everything you know. If you don't cherish this opportunity, don't blame me for not reminding you if you are dragged to the underworld again!"
