Chapter 539 Lord Yun
Yun Bailian's bloodless face became even more hideous and ugly, with a hint of panic.
She stared at Yun Qingqing intently, and suddenly laughed shrilly:
"Yun Qingqing, why are you pretending to be a righteous man? Even though I fell into your hands today, are you still a good person?"
Yun Bailian's eyes swept across a group of civil and military officials with complicated expressions, and finally fell on the emperor:
"You all saw it clearly today! Yun Qingqing also practices the way of ghosts! Do you know how many ghosts and even living souls my master's natal ghost, Afeng, swallowed to reach that level? But what Yun Qingqing summoned directly was the Ghost King! He is even more powerful than Afeng!"
"Don't you think about it? If Yun Qingqing hadn't done all these evil things in secret, how could she raise a ghost of the Ghost King level?"
The emperor and all the civil and military officials knew nothing about these things, but they had all witnessed the horror of evil spirits. They were most afraid of these evil creatures, and when they heard Yun Bailian's words, they couldn't help but look at Yun Qingqing with fear in their hearts.
"Nonsense!" Xiao Changheng looked at Yun Bailian with cold eyes, clenched the long sword in his hand, and secretly accumulated strength in his palm.
If he was not unsure about how Yun Qingqing would deal with Yun Bailian's vengeful soul, he would have chopped it down with a knife long ago.
Yun Bailian was suppressed by the talisman and could not move. She had given up and looked at Xiao Changheng with extreme sarcasm:
"The Regent is really devoted to her! I don't think he would accept her practicing such evil techniques as ghost arts. Are you planning to cover up your mistake and deny it?"
"It's a pity that you care about her, but she doesn't care about you! Maybe she is just waiting for the opportunity to turn you into a vengeful spirit and use you as material to raise a ghost king, hahahahahaha!"
"After all, if the powerful regent suddenly died one day, his resentment would definitely be a thousand times higher than that of an ordinary person!"
"Shut up!" Xiao Changheng's long sword glowed faintly white, and his eyes revealed murderous intent.
But he still controlled himself and didn't make a move.
Xiao Changheng didn’t know how to practice the ghost way, but he knew that Yun Qingqing was definitely not like that.
He saw the complicated expressions of all the officials and the emperor's doubts. He knew that if he chopped off Yun Bailian's soul with a knife now, there would be no evidence. Even if others did not dare to speak out, they would definitely have doubts about Yun Qingqing and would not be able to explain it clearly.
Yun Bailian looked at his expression, her smile became more ferocious, and she continued to speak nonsense:
"After meeting the Ghost King today, I finally understood! What's this about the Heavenly Phoenix... It's all her tricks to fool you idiots! The Ghost King has become a powerful figure, and the mortal world can only wait to endure the catastrophe brought about by her indulgence of the Ghost King, hahahaha..."
Yun Bailian was immersed in the madness of not caring about anyone, and didn't notice that Yun Qingqing was fiddling with a small black mirror in her hand and put it away.
She was laughing wildly when suddenly a faint bell sounded in the air.
The ringtone didn't sound loud, but its presence was so strong that no one in the entire square missed it.
Everyone who heard the ringing felt a chill rising from their backs, and the temperature around them seemed to drop suddenly!
There was a commotion among the crowd. This feeling was very similar to when the evil ghost and the ghost king appeared just now. When they thought about what Yun Bailian had just said, they were suddenly frightened again.
"Hiss... What's that sound? Did you hear it?"
"It's so cold... this feeling..."
"Could it be that the Ghost King has come back again?"
"Could it be that Yun Bailian really came true..."
The emperor's face turned pale, cold sweat oozed from his forehead, and he looked around in confusion for the source of the sound.
Only Yun Qingqing stood still like a mountain, looking in one direction with a calm expression.
Xiao Changheng narrowed his eyes slightly, stood in front of the emperor and whispered:
"Don't be afraid, my brother. It's not a ghost."
The emperor was slightly startled, and his expression seemed to relax a little, but he was still very nervous. He asked in a low voice with some hesitation:
"Chang Heng, how did you know?"
Xiao Changheng looked in the same direction as Yun Qingqing, without saying anything.
At the same time, the skylight suddenly disappeared in an empty space, and a dark hole appeared out of nowhere and expanded rapidly. Soon, the deep hole was big enough for a person to pass through.
Then, two figures, one white and one black, walked out from inside.
Everyone who saw how these two people were dressed gasped!
The two men were seen wearing tall hats, one white and the other black, with the words "Make Fortune at First Sight" and "Peace in the World" written on them. They were holding two terrifying sticks with tiny bells on them.
The man in black had a gloomy face. He held a chain with a hook on the top in one hand and gently shook the stick in his hand as he walked. The bell that had just reached his mind rang again.
The man in white had narrowed eyes and a perfect smile on his face. He spoke as he walked, his tone sarcastic:
"I really can't stand listening to this anymore. Where did this ignorant kid come from? He doesn't even know what a ghost cultivator is, and yet he's talking nonsense and making shocking remarks."
"Tsk, tsk, tsk..." He said as he flipped through a booklet in his hand, smiling, "Yun Bailian... Oh, you may not be that old, but you've done a lot of bad things. You've accumulated a lot of sins before you even go to the underworld, and the nonsense you just said also has to be counted into the list..."
"Oh, it's too much trouble. Let's just take him to the underworld and wait for the judge to deal with him!"
As they were talking, the two men had already walked up to Yun Bailian. When Yun Bailian saw them, her eyes widened, her whole body trembled, and she dared not move.
Needless to say, the other people present had their eyes widened wider and wider, and they didn't know whether they should be shocked or scared!
Although no living person has ever actually seen the images of these two people, they are extremely familiar!
If not the Black and White Impermanence, then who else could it be!
And...what Bai Wuchang just said contained a lot of information.
He said Yun Bailian didn't understand ghost cultivation? He also said she was talking nonsense. Does that mean... Yun Qingqing and her ghost kings are not what they thought?
Although Bai Wuchang stood in front of Yun Bailian, he bowed respectfully to Yun Qingqing first:
"Master Yun, please forgive us for being late. We will take this evil ghost back to the underworld. Please remove the talisman first."
Yun Qingqing nodded and raised her hand to take back the talisman that was pressing on Yun Bailian.
Everyone was stunned.
What did Bai Wuchang just say?
...Lord Yun?
