Chapter 586 Adu's Secret
Yun Qingqing left the Yama Palace and headed straight to the east of Fengdu City.
She was carrying the Ghost King's Order, and when she passed through the city gate, the frightened ghost guards nodded and bowed, and invited her to a place that looked like a VIP room and served her tea and water.
Yun Qingqing was very grateful, but refused to eat it without hesitation. The food in the underworld is for ghosts, and the living don't need to try it.
The little ghost said tremblingly that although she had the Ghost King's order, she did not have the power to release him. She had to report to her superiors and then make the decision.
He made sure not to let Yun Qingqing wait too long, and she didn't make things difficult for these little devils and sat for a while.
Fortunately, the commander guarding the city gate soon showed up. After seeing the Ghost King's order, he let her go without saying a word and politely asked her to say a few good words for him to Lord Yama.
Yun Qingqing passed through the city gate smoothly and walked towards Wangchuan.
The Forgotten River can be seen not far from the city, and the riverside is a sea of red Lycoris radiata flowers that spread endlessly to both ends.
She walked forward for a while and saw a girl in green walking through the sea of flowers from afar, bending down from time to time to collect something. It was A'du.
Yun Qingqing walked over, and A'du also heard the noise. He turned around and saw her, and immediately came over to greet her.
"...Lord Yun, why are you here?" The little girl, holding a basket in her hand, walked up to her and lowered her eyes slightly. She looked shy as usual and didn't dare to look her in the eye.
But Yun Qingqing had seen her holding the Judge's Pen, suppressing the demonized Judge's Seal with a wave of her hand, and easily subduing thousands of evil spirits.
This little girl has never been a simple character.
Yun Qingqing glanced at A'du and asked casually:
"Are you collecting the stamens of the red spider lily?"
A'Du tightened the basket with both hands and nodded:
"Well... this flower stamen is one of the ingredients for Meng Po Soup. I'll help pick some and send them to Naihe Bridge."
After she finished her explanation, she looked up at Yun Qingqing quickly, then lowered her eyes again:
"Um... Lord Yun came here, is there something you want to tell me?"
Yun Qingqing took out a small black stone mirror used for communicating with the underworld and showed it to her:
"Do you have this thing?"
A'Du was stunned for a moment, pursed his lips and said:
"Well... yes, but I don't carry it with me."
"That's good," Yun Qingqing said, "I want to ask you for a favor."
"Please tell me, as long as A'du can do it, I will do my best." A'du responded softly.
"Okay, I want you to help me monitor someone..."
Yun Qingqing explained it in detail.
After hearing this, A'Du was a little surprised and whispered:
"You suspect... that person has a problem?"
Yun Qingqing looked a little serious:
"This matter is special. It is very inconvenient for me to deploy it in the world of the living. Among the people I can trust in the underworld, you are the only one who has this ability. I hope the young lady can help me."
A'Du nodded repeatedly, flattered and said:
"You, you are too polite. Just leave this matter to me. I...I will definitely not let you down."
"Thank you very much." Yun Qingqing nodded and left casually.
Before leaving, she was silent for a moment, bowed her hands and saluted, and said:
"Thank you, Lord Yan Jun. I will take my leave now."
A'du's mind was full of the things he had just been asked to do.
Consciousness nodded:
"Oh, okay, Miss Yun, take your time..."
Halfway through her speech, she suddenly stopped talking, with a flash of panic in her eyes:
"No, no, Master Yun, how could you...how could I, how could I be..."
Yun Qingqing looked at her with a half-smile:
"Don't pretend, you really are Lord Yan. Otherwise, as a subordinate, when you suddenly heard Lord Yan's name, shouldn't you have thought that he was here? But you responded subconsciously."
A'Du's face flushed and he stammered:
"I just, I just... was just distracted..."
Yun Qingqing raised her hand and made a gesture, and suddenly a ball of light appeared in A'du's sleeve and flew out through her cuffs.
A'Du looked at the glowing little bead, his face froze and he was completely speechless.
Yun Qingqing took the light bead in her hand, erased the tiny formation inside, and said:
"I'm sorry, I did something with the crystal of the Yueying flower. If you still want to deny your identity, can you explain why the thing I just gave to Lord Yan is here with you?"
A'Du lowered his head, his voice as soft as a mosquito:
"S-Sorry...I didn't mean to lie to you..."
Yun Qingqing looked at her doubtfully for a moment and sighed softly:
"You didn't do anything bad to me, so you don't have to apologize. I just don't understand...what is going on?"
In fact, Yun Qingqing felt that this matter was a bit confusing and she didn't know where to start.
The girl is Adu's true appearance, so why does she dress up as Fengdu Jun?
Is there someone else who plays the Lord of Fengdu... In other words, when the Lord of Fengdu first became the Lord of Hell, was it A'du himself who played the role, or did she take his place later?
Also, the Lord of the Underworld is actually a young girl. Do other people in the Underworld know about this?
Most importantly…
Why would Lord Yan himself condescend to disguise himself as the judge's apprentice and go to great lengths to help himself?
Yun Qingqing started to notice something was wrong when A'du easily suppressed the rebellious Judge and took the Judge's Seal last time in Beicang.
At that time, her spiritual pupil discovered a special aura from A'du.
She had seen the same aura once in Yama Palace.
That was the time when Yun Qingqing brought Ahan to the underworld to borrow the Reincarnation Mirror. At that time, she was interrogating Cang Gu's soul, but the soul suddenly exploded. It was King Yan who directly pressed the explosion in his hand.
It was only at that moment that the aura on Lord Yan suddenly changed, and Yun Qingqing was able to sense the extremely powerful and special aura at a glance.
She didn't think much about it at the time, until she saw the same aura on A'du, she began to connect the details.
Including the time when her eyes were bitten back by the Samsara Mirror and Yan Jun was at a loss when he apologized, the tone of his voice was exactly the same as that of the always cautious A'du.
Even later, when A'du appeared for the first time to lead the way for her who was temporarily blind, A'han's behavior was a little subtle. He always called her "A'du".
Now that I think about it, this overly clever kid clearly called out "Adu", the "du" of Fengdu Jun...
In fact, when Yun Qingqing first discovered it, she was confused, but she restrained herself and did not intend to delve into it further.
It was not until the palace was attacked at night that the King of Hell actually sent the Black and White Impermanence to lend her the Book of Life and Death. This was really beyond her imagination.
Fengdu Jun...or rather, Adu, must have a connection with herself. Yun Qingqing finally decided to find out what was going on, so she took today's opportunity to test him.
She looked at the little girl in front of her with a red face, head lowered and almost crying, and she didn't know what to feel.
Who could have thought that Lord Yan would cry in front of him? This feeling was too unreal.
Yun Qingqing sighed, stepped forward, took A'Du's hand and patted it gently, and said in a gentle voice:
"I don't mean to force you. Do you... have any unavoidable difficulties?"
A'Du trembled slightly as she held his hand. He took a deep breath, raised his eyes and looked at Yun Qingqing. As if he had made up his mind, he spoke softly:
"I haven't told anyone about this, but... I'm willing to tell you."
