Chapter 104 The Real Murderer



Jin Banwei has never had such an easy fight since she entered the industry. She only needed to chat with Ren Qiao throughout the whole process. Although she could not see clearly what happened in the sea of ​​blood, Zhongsui would not be the one who suffered.

While they were talking, Guan Jiyue had finished the task.

Guan Jiyue's weak voice came from the Paper Dragonfly, accompanied by two slight coughs: "I've solved it here, I'll be there to help you right away."

The sound was like a thin gust of wind blowing past, and there was no need to see with the eyes. Jin Banwei also knew that Guan Jiyue's current situation was a little bad. She had already regarded Guan Jiyue as a family member in her heart, so of course she cared about Guan Jiyue.

Jin Banwei quickly asked, "Sister Ji Yue, are you injured?"

"It's just a minor injury." Guan Jiyue paused for a moment and started coughing violently again. Her throat sounded even hoarser, as if her throat was choked by fireworks.

This doesn't seem like a minor injury.

Jin Banwei quickly refused: "Sister Ji Yue, there is no problem on my side. I have asked Zhong Sui to come over. The most important thing for you is to go back to Yang Street and recuperate."

Hearing Zhongsui, Guan Jiyue did not feel relieved, but became even more worried: "Did Zhongsui bully you?"

Guan Jiyue had always been reluctant to deal with the underworld, so naturally she had never come into contact with Zhongsui. Most of the time, like her, she had heard from Leng Xiangying and the others what kind of underworld official Zhongsui was. When Zhongsui was mentioned, all those not-so-good words popped into her mind. It was hard for her not to worry about Jin Banwei and Ren Qiao, and she was even worried that Zhongsui would turn against her and help Fu Xi.

After getting to know each other, Jin Banwei didn't dislike Zhongsui, and Zhongsui was indeed not a bad person.

Jin Banwei was a person who knew how to repay kindness. At this time, she couldn't help but mention Zhong Sui who protected her: "Sister Ji Yue, Zhong Sui's personality is different from what Shen and the others said. She is not a bad person, and she must like you very much."

Guan Jiyue: "Like me? Is she sick?"

Even though they were far apart, Jin Banwei also felt Guan Jiyue's disdain and indifference. Jin Banwei quickly added, "She likes you to help her with work."

Zhongsui was just saying that he wanted Fuxi to die in front of Guan Jiyue as an atonement for his crime.

Guan Jiyue coughed twice and said, "Don't consider it for now. I have already dealt with the Shen family. I will keep Shen Yuanqing's life. Don't you like to feed them Red Luo Gu? Shen Yuanqing has not tasted the taste of Red Luo Gu, so I am not going to kill him for now. If he dies too easily, it will be unfair to him for all the evil things he has done."

Speaking of bad things, Jin Banwei suddenly thought of those insect monsters. She lowered her voice and said, "Sister Ji Yue, I didn't fight against those wizards. They were all turned into insect monsters by Sheng Mao."

Guan Jiyue didn't seem surprised by Sheng Mao and his men's cruelty. She just asked, "Ban Wei, do you know what's hidden in the secret room under the Shen family's ancestral home?"

Jin Banwei: "What?"

Guan Jiyue was silent for a moment before saying, "The secret room in the basement of the Shen family is a living laboratory. They have been studying how to purify fate over the years. The result of their research is to use the lives of people with the same fate. I also found a few girls with immortal official fate in the laboratory. They are not only using human lives to feed Meng Po, but also to raise Yin God."

"Do you still remember Xie Zuping who was trapped in the Yin-Yang Channel? Didn't they rescue him? I met him at the Shen family. It seems that he was left behind because the time was too short and his strength did not meet expectations. He was originally a full-time Tiansha bone spirit. After they sacrificed hundreds of lives with the same fate, his current strength is no weaker than Bai Lian, so their power to attack the Hades is probably stronger. Even if we solve the four Huangquan evil spirits, the Hades may not be able to solve the problem. After all, there are too many evil spirits in the Hades. Once they seduce, suppressing them will be enough to give Yan Tao and the others a headache. Ask Zhong Sui about the situation in the Hades. She is a regular Yin official. Leng Xiangying and the others can't contact the Hades, but she should still be able to contact Yan Tao. If the situation is not optimistic, we still have to leave our bodies and go to the Hades to help."

Jin Banwei's eyes widened in surprise. She looked at Ren Qiao, who was also confused: "Ji Yue, are you saying that they are creating a Yin God?"

Guan Jiyue: "Yes, but this is understandable. If there weren't a group of fake Yin gods, they wouldn't dare to attack the underworld."

It makes sense, but goes against human nature.

How many lives had they killed? Jin Banwei no longer dared to think about the horrifying numbers behind it.

Guan Jiyue was silent for only a short while, and then quickly jumped to the next topic: "Wait for me at Yungu Village, I'll send Shen Yuanqing there right away."

Jin Banwei heard her voice was very weak: "Sister Ji Yue, do you want to recover first?"

Guan Jiyue: "No, I want to see Fu Xi now."

Among this group of people, Guan Jiyue probably hated Huang Yuanjing and Fu Xi the most, not the mastermind. One was the guardian deity of the Guan family, and the other was the guardian of Yang Street, but they almost destroyed Yang Street and cut off the Guan family.

How could Guan Jiyue not hate this?

Jin Banwei wisely did not stop Guan Jiyue. Lin Qing's voice suddenly rang out: "Guan girl, since you are coming here, why don't you come to Shenyuan Lake to pick me up? I'm injured and can't move now."

Logically speaking, Lin Ping's place should be easier to deal with, after all, there is no one guarding the formation. However, Lin Ping's place is also where the spiritual energy is most abundant, and the level of the water corpses there should be not low.

Hearing that he was injured, Jin Banwei was also a little worried: "Senior Lin, you hide first, I will come to Shenyuan Lake soon."

Jin Banwei was ready to leave Yungu Village to Zhongsui and quickly rush to Shenyuan Lake, but Lin Qing refused: "No need to come, I have already dealt with the water corpse here, there is no danger, but I am a little injured and exhausted. You have to understand the old man, I am old after all, and I can't compare with your physical strength."

Lin Ping and Guan Jiyue were both dealt with, so only they and Min Ziyu were left.

Jin Banwei looked down and saw that the fog in the sea of ​​blood had begun to fade and the sounds inside had become much quieter. She thought that it would soon be over.

"Sister Ji Yue, let's meet at Shen Yuan Lake. I'll take Fu Xi over there."

"Okay." After finishing the conversation with Guan Jiyue, she tried to contact Min Ziyu twice, but she didn't get in touch with Min Ziyu. Maybe the paper dragonfly was broken. She tried the talisman paper bag that Guan Jiyue left for Min Ziyu, but still couldn't get in touch with Min Ziyu.

I wonder if something happened to Min Ziyu.

Jin Banwei thought a little uneasily, while the noise on the ground became quieter and quieter.

When the blood mist dissipated, Shen Yuantao and the snake, the weakest among them, had been broken into pieces, and their breath was gone.

The more than 300 insect monsters also turned into pus and blood and melted into the ground. Zhong Sui was holding the Yin-sided love drum in his left hand and a bone whip in his right hand. He had a flute hanging around his waist and was stepping on Sheng Changyi, who had only half of his body left.

Chen Yi, Tao Shengmao and the others had their arms and legs broken and were dying.

No matter how strong the recovery ability is, it is useless at this moment. The strength comparable to that of a divine bone is enough to crush all of them.

The most respectable one among them was Fu Xi. Fu Xi was just tied up in a rather embarrassing manner, with many deep and shallow bloody wounds on her body. However, compared with Sheng Changyi and others who had broken arms and legs, and even half of their bodies were severed, Fu Xi was already doing very well.

Zhongsui still showed mercy.

The twelve lanterns that Jin Banwei had not yet taken back were hanging high, with Zhongsui's unclear face printed on them.

Seeing that the situation was settled, Jin Banwei quickly untied the paper lock Yu Jin. She hugged Ren Qiao and asked her to follow her down on the paper butterfly. When Zhong Sui saw them coming down, he turned around and threw the Yin-sided love drum and bone whip to Jin Banwei.

She let go of her foot that was stepping on Sheng Changyi, took two steps forward, and handed the flute to Jin Banwei. She looked at Ren Qiao seriously, and for the first time ever, there was a little smile in her eyes: "You don't look much like your mother. You are more beautiful."

"Thank you." Ren Qiao took Jin Banwei's arm and thanked Zhong Sui softly.

Zhong Sui's smile could only last for a moment, and the next moment her true nature was exposed. She put her hand on Jin Banwei's shoulder and said, "Fuck, your method is really awesome. This level of power increase has no side effects. Give each of our Yin officials one of these, and we can get out of this trouble quickly."

Jin Banwei counted her inventory. She had just used three Luo Shengna talismans on Zhong Sui at once, so she only had twelve Luo Shengna talismans left.

To be honest, not much.

Moreover, her lottery draw has come to an end, and it is basically difficult to collect the fragments needed for the Luoshengna Talisman.

Besides, if this kind of talisman paper is widely spread, it will inevitably attract attention. Jin Banwei still wants to hide some tricks. She pretended to be serious and said: "Sister Zhongsui, even if I sacrifice my life to draw this kind of talisman paper, I can't draw a few pieces."

"Don't draw the talisman paper that shortens your life!" Zhong Sui deliberately glanced at Ren Qiao a few more times: "It would be quite despair if you just got your revenge and then lost your wife right away."

Shortening your life doesn’t mean you will die immediately.

Why did Zhongsui sentence her to death here?

Jin Banwei wanted to protest, but Ren Qiao tightened his grip on her arm. Jin Banwei wanted to cry but had no tears. She wanted to yell at Ren Qiao, "Sister, don't take everything you say to heart!"

Zhong Sui, who had caused Ren Qiao to worry, was unaware of anything. Her power had already dissipated at this moment, but her own strength was not weak. She could no longer regard these people who were only breathing their last breath as her opponents. However, when her eyes met Fu Xi, she would still linger for a little longer.

When Jin Banwei went forward to feed them the Red Luo Gu one by one, she hesitated when she saw Fu Xi.

She glanced at Zhong Sui thoughtfully, and Zhong Sui cursed irritably: "If you want revenge, then go ahead. Don't look at me. I don't know her well!"

Although he said that, Zhong Sui's gaze remained on Jin Banwei's hands.

Jin Banwei glanced at Fu Xi. Compared with Zhong Sui, Fu Xi's appearance was not outstanding, even a little ordinary to the point of being unmemorable. Only her pair of misty eyes made her look particularly delicate. However, Jin Banwei did not believe in tears, or it could be said that she did not feel sorry for everyone's tears. It was difficult for her to sympathize with Fu Xi because she knew very well what role Fu Xi played in this situation.

Although she did not participate in the sacrifice, she was involved and was by no means innocent.

However, the Red Luo Gu still did not fall on Fu Xi.

"Forget it, Sister Ji Yue said she wants to see her, I'll feed her later."

The Red Luo Gu did not fall, and Fu Xi breathed a sigh of relief.

All of them have a special fear of the Red Luo Gu, except Sheng Mao.

When Sheng Mao saw the appearance of Red Luo Gu, the smile on his face actually deepened: "I didn't expect that there was someone besides me who could raise such a large number of Red Luo Gu. You shouldn't be a paper-making master. You must be a great Gu master."

What was the light in Sheng Mao's eyes? It couldn't be that he valued talent.

They have killed many geniuses over the years, and those demon-killing swords have taken the lives of Yin-Yang sorcerers.

Thinking that the red Luo Gu that persecuted Yu Li was raised by Sheng Mao, Jin Banwei put two more insects on Sheng Mao. Sheng Mao saw through her venting behavior at a glance. He glanced at Shen Yitao coldly and said, "In fact, you should torture Shen Yitao more. After all, her great grandfather and great grandmother were the masterminds. Even this attack on the underworld was to prolong the life of this little girl."

Sheng Mao's words made them look at Shen Yitao twice more. Shen Yitao felt their gazes, and her shattered body trembled. She said coldly: "Sheng Mao, shut up!"

If it were normal times, Sheng Mao would give her some leniency, but now he is almost dying.

This young lady from the Shen family has been arrogant for a long time, and it is time for her to put an end to it.

Sheng Mao glanced at Sheng Changyi, who was unable to make a sound due to his crushed throat, and sneered: "Everyone is dying now, I have nothing to be afraid of. Both of them have taken Yu Li's heart and have long been immortal. If they didn't want to extend your life, who would attack the underworld?"

Shen Yitao was dying, but he was conscious.

Facing Sheng Mao's behavior of wanting her to bear the greatest consequences, she was very ashamed: "Don't throw dirty water on me, do you think I don't know? Those of you who have swallowed the power of the immortal bones are not truly immortal. Except for the Yellow Kite Spirit, everyone's body has mutated. Some have become like ghosts, and some have become like monsters. My great-grandmother originally wanted to have the immortal bones in order to have a living body. If her goal was not achieved, of course she would find a way to achieve it. Moreover, she has long hated the reincarnation system of the underworld. This was her plan from the beginning, and it has nothing to do with me. You can't accept that you have become a monster, so you help. In the final analysis, you are all because of your own selfish desires. If I deserve to die, you deserve to die too!"

Surprisingly, there was only one successful product.

This answer was what Jin Banwei had expected. It turned out that the successful product did not become extremely powerful, but was able to stay alive in its original body.

But even at this point, they still know nothing about the person behind the scenes.

Jin Banwei slowly squatted down and asked Shen Yitao: "Shen Yitao, who is your great grandmother?"

Shen Yitao glanced at her and said nothing.

She responded to Jin Banwei with silence, but unfortunately Jin Banwei did not draw a card that could extract memories.

However... the True Yin Official can extract the memory of the soul. She looked at Zhong Sui, but Zhong Sui walked up to Fu Xi silently. She looked at him with an enemy in her eyes and curled her fingers slightly: "Fu Xi, I only want to ask you one question, why did you betray the underworld?"

Fu Xi was trapped by her Yin Lock. As long as Zhongsui was not dead, it would be difficult for her to escape. She knew she couldn't escape, but she had no intention of telling the truth.

She just chuckled: "It doesn't matter who you work for."

Zhong Sui did not give up. She asked again: "Then let me change the question. Who are you working for now?"

Fu Xi still didn't say anything. The reason was probably that he still had expectations for the person behind the scenes, and there was a curse mark on his body.

Jin Banwei remembered that she had seen the face of the person behind the scenes through Hai Caihua's vision. She stood up and said to Zhong Sui, "Master Zhong Sui, the person behind the scenes is a female ghost. There is a pattern of dark blue underworld fire on her face."

Fu Xi looked up in fear: "How did you know?"

A female ghost with a dark blue fire pattern, and she is related to Fu Xi...

Zhong Sui understood clearly, and she said with certainty: "Fu Xi, you are working for Jiang Fei."

Jiang Fei.

Jin Banwei seemed to have heard of this name before. She tapped her arm and realized in an instant that Jiang Fei was the Meng Po before Leng Siqing. She was also the Meng Po who had the shortest reign and disappeared inexplicably.

It’s her!

Rather than being in danger, she became the world’s greatest danger, which must have been beyond everyone’s expectations.

Including Sheng Mao and Sheng Changyi, they were unaware of Jiang Fei's identity. They should know the same as Huang Yuanjing, that she was Shen Yuanqing's ghost wife.

Zhong Sui's eyes were filled with confusion: "Why Jiang Fei? I remember you were annoyed with every Meng Po in the underworld."

Bai Lian likes every Meng Po, while Fu Xi hates every Meng Po. The two Yin Shuai guarding the Ghost Market are completely opposite.

Fu Xi saw that the identity of the person behind the scenes had been exposed. After the shock, she was left with nothing but calmness. She raised her eyes, looked at Zhong Sui who was looking down at her, and asked, "Then do you know why I hate every Meng Po?"

Zhong Sui naturally didn’t know, as she was not the kind of person who was good at speculating and pondering.

Fu Xi saw her shaking her head, and a mocking smile appeared on his lips. "Because it's unfair, it's clear that official positions in the underworld are determined by strength, but the position of Meng Po is the only exception. Several Meng Pos can't compare to my cultivation, but just because they are immortal officials with a fate of more than six palaces, because the underworld lacks Meng Pos, they can become Meng Pos and suppress me. This is unfair! In order to climb up, I have been practicing hard day and night, but they only need one fate to have a higher position than me. Several of them, Meng Po, have weaker power than me after obtaining the Meng Po Order!"

"I have spent countless days and nights wondering why I am not destined to be an immortal official, why those who are weaker than me can climb over my head, but I can't climb over your heads."

Zhong Sui took a deep breath and forced himself to speak calmly: "But you should know that Meng Po's life is not an easy one. The Naihe Bridge is boring, Meng Po soup is hard to make, and few Meng Po can live for more than two thousand years. But you have existed as a Yin official for tens of thousands of years."

Fu Xi was not someone who could be changed by her gentle preaching. It could even be said that she had been thinking obsessively in her heart for many years. She could refute every word Zhong Sui said: "Leng Siqing lived for two thousand years, and Min Ziyu served as Meng Po twice. Why can't I? Is it just because of the fate of an immortal official?"

Zhong Sui couldn't bear it for more than two minutes, his true nature was already revealed: "Yes, it's because of the fate of being an immortal official. It's what people are destined to have. If it's not in your fate, who can you blame? You might as well reincarnate and strive to be an immortal official in your next life! I really don't understand you. What kind of good job is Meng Po? Many people don't want to do it if it wasn't for Yan Tao forcing them. How dare you still think about it? Aren't you also caught and forced to boil Meng Po soup? That boring job that takes time, effort and energy. I'm tired of doing it for a whole day, and you're envious!"

Fu Xi shook her head in resistance: "No, you don't understand, what I want is status."

Zhong Sui was once again amused by Fu Xi. Sure enough, nothing good would happen if he met his ex-girlfriend at this time. Although she would not be so angry that she died young, she could easily be so angry that she would tear Fu Xi's skin off.

"No, you are fucking sick! The rules of the underworld have always been that whoever is stronger gets the upper hand, except for Meng Po's position which is an exception. All other positions can be challenged. If you are capable, challenge me in a one-on-one duel. If you beat me, you can become the number one Yin Shuai. If that doesn't work, you can also challenge the emperors..."

"That's enough!" Fu Xi interrupted her: "You obviously know that this is impossible. Your Yinguan system is not fair to living souls like us!"

Jin Banwei listened to the two of them arguing and actually figured out what was going on.

To put it bluntly, Zhongsui is a shady official who is forced to be led by the party but has a heart of a lazy fish, but Fuxi is a career-oriented person. When her efforts did not get her any room for advancement, she chose to change jobs and then join forces with others to deal with her old employer.

But Jin Banwei still didn't understand something. She looked at Fu Xi, whose face was filled with anger, and asked, "What's unfair about getting promoted based on your own abilities?"

Fu Xi curled his lips and said, "Then do you know that every Zheng Yin Official in the underworld is irreplaceable? Take Zhong Sui and Shan Sui as examples. They are not the reincarnation of living souls at all. They were conceived by the souls of heaven and earth. They were blessed by the King of Hell before they were fully born. Their strength is so strong that it is insurmountable. It is not something that can be caught up with by fate or hard work. They are born Zheng Yin Officials. What can you expect me to surpass!"

Jin Banwei suddenly realized and was about to nod to express her understanding, but Zhong Sui grabbed her head and refused to let her lower her head.

"Don't listen to her nonsense. Let's not talk about Shan Jing and Yu Ruo. Let's talk about the two princes, King Shen Yuan and King Ming You. They were both alive. Lord Shen Yuan was a casual cultivator who did justice everywhere and saved people from suffering. He came to the underworld with three thousand merits, and his fate was quite good, so he was promoted all the way. His Highness King Ming You came to the underworld later than you. He was only a second-rank official in his lifetime, but he was incorruptible all his life, redressed grievances for the people, and was honest and upright. He also came to the underworld with three thousand merits and was promoted all the way."

"Promotions in the underworld have always been based on fate and merit. Those who do good will be blessed, and those who do evil will be punished. Isn't this fair? Fu Xi, don't blame others. Just based on what you have done now, you deserve your low position!"

The official position of that Zheng Yin should be quite high.

Basically, the number of people who can stand above Fu Xi can be counted on one’s fingers.

Jin Banwei thought so in her heart, but she couldn't say it out loud, otherwise it would easily make Zhongsui angry.

Fu Xi's mouth trembled slightly, and after a long while, he said with sadness: "That's also your fault. If you hadn't provoked me, I wouldn't have been targeted by Yan Tao. How could I have died so early? If I hadn't died so early, I should have accumulated three thousand merits."

"Fu Xi, you fell off a cliff to your death while trying to save your stupid senior brother, and you weren't forced to death by Yan Tao. I don't owe you anything, and Yan Tao doesn't owe you anything either. You are just a mean person, so don't blame me and Yan Tao for everything."

Fu Xi was startled, and looked up in surprise: "So you knew..."

"In fact, if you use your brain to think about it, you should know Shan Sui's personality. He can't say anything about you, let alone tell me that Yan Tao asked you about your relationship for me." Zhong Sui felt that she must have been angry for too long, so when the curse came to her lips, she unexpectedly explained the cause and effect in a gentle voice: "Yan Tao doesn't like Yin officials to be trapped by love, so she let me see everything that happened to you during my 30 years in hell, including your love for someone else. I thought Yan Tao was cruel at that time, but later you lied to me again and again, and I understood Yan Tao's painstaking efforts. She didn't want me to be a fool. I should thank her."

Seeing that his lie was completely exposed, Fu Xi no longer tried to hide anything and just casually asked, "Why?"

"There's no need to ask why. Over the years, I've been deceived by you as a punishment for the evildoers. Sometimes, I really believed you, and even went along with you to lie to myself. For a long time, I actually forgot that you died for your brother. In fact, you should be honest. I'm not a petty person. I will forgive you. But after more than ten thousand years, you're still a liar."

Zhong Sui stretched his waist and suddenly said in a frustrated tone: "Fuck you... Forget it, I won't scold you anymore. I just want to say one thing now, I was really fucking blind before!"

Fu Xi suddenly laughed out loud: "You are wrong, you were blind not only before, but you are blind now too. It seems that you still have feelings for me. Why don't I give you a chance? Take me away. As long as you take me away, I can marry you."

Zhong Sui looked at Fu Xi in disbelief, then turned to ask Jin Banwei and Ren Qiao: "Is she speaking human language?"

Jin Banwei didn't want to answer the call at this time, but if she didn't, Ren Qiao would definitely answer it, so it would be better for her to bring bad luck: "Master Zhongsui, Fu Xi is a ghost, and what he said must be a ghost."

"I know!" Zhong Sui felt that her heart was like a balloon that would explode with a slight touch. "I didn't mean to scold you. It's mainly because you, a pig-headed person, should look at what you have done in your daydreaming! Yan Tao didn't choose me to fill my head with love. The difference between a Yin God and an ordinary person is that sentient beings come first, and love comes second. I liked you when I was blind, but you were no longer worthy of my love for you when you hurt the lives I protected. Don't take yourself too seriously. Do you understand?"

Fu Xi's smile became more dazzling, and her laughter became more piercing: "If you have the time to argue with me, you might as well worry about whether your boss is dead or not. If she dies, all the lives you protect will cease to exist."
