Chapter 243 Heading to the Underworld
Zhang Lan was also stunned for a moment, and asked awkwardly:
"Isn't this progressing too fast? Are we going to hell now?"
Feng Tianning nodded, without giving him a chance to react, set up a formation at home, and pulled Zhang Lan towards the Ghost Gate.
Zhang Lan also knew that it was he who suggested to go with them. Now it was too late for him to react and get scared. He could only hold Feng Tianning's arm tightly.
Under the murderous gaze of Cang Yao and Feng Yangxi, the two slowly walked into the Ghost Gate.
"You must protect me later."
Zhang Lan also nervously pulled Feng Tianning's sleeve, looking like a little wife.
Feng Tianning nodded helplessly and said:
"After we go in, if you're scared, just go to Yama Palace and don't follow me."
"There will be no danger in Yama Palace."
Yama Palace?
Zhang Lan also silently repeated these three words in his heart, and his head lowered even more.
"I'll follow you."
His voice is as small as a mosquito.
Are you kidding? That’s the Hall of Yama.
If Feng Tianning really left him to the Ten Kings of Hell, he would die on the spot in front of her.
"Tianning, I still want to live a few more days. Shouldn't we go to see the King of Hell?"
Feng Tianning always felt that his words were a little strange. What does being alive have to do with meeting the King of Hell?
But seeing how nervous he looked, Feng Tianning nodded.
Outside Youdu City, they did not go in directly, but went to the dense forest outside the city.
Feng Tianning followed Xiaobao's memory and quickly found the cave where Pangu was outside the city.
As soon as she approached, she felt a powerful demonic energy rushing out of the cave, as if it was going to corrode both of them.
Feng Tianning hung the Nuwa Stone on his neck on Zhang Lanye, and then walked into the cave.
However, unlike the demonic energy outside, they walked all the way to the end of the cave and did not find any demonic energy, let alone Pangu's soul.
"Strange." Feng Tianning looked around the stone wall.
"Could there be some kind of mechanism?" Zhang Lan also asked tentatively.
When he came into the cave, he was not so scared anymore.
organ?
Feng Tianning glanced around, but didn't see any signs of any mechanism.
"Boom—"
A powerful force suddenly came from outside the cave, and Feng Tianning and Zhang Lan subconsciously dodged.
"Monster, surrender now!"
Xuan Ming's voice suddenly came from outside. Feng Tianning was stunned for a moment, and hurriedly pulled Zhang Lan out of the cave.
"Madam?" Xuan Ming was stunned the moment he saw Feng Tianning.
But when she saw Zhang Lan beside her, the words on her lips suddenly changed course.
Feng Tianning nodded at him and said:
"Why are you here?"
Xuan Ming hesitated for a moment and said:
"Sir, the person next to you is..."
Hearing the person in front of him calling his name, Zhang Lan also shrank behind Feng Tianning, trying to reduce his presence as much as possible.
Being able to enter and leave the underworld so freely, he must hold a high official position, perhaps even the legendary King of Hell.
Xuan Ming's gaze fell on Zhang Lanye who was hiding behind Feng Tianning. It was not that he did not trust Feng Tianning, but a monster had appeared and he had to be vigilant.
"It's okay, he's here to help me, you can trust him."
After hearing Feng Tianning's words, Xuan Ming breathed a sigh of relief and continued:
"Not long ago, we sensed that there seemed to be a demonic aura here, so we wanted to come over and check it out."
"But for some reason, there's demonic energy rising from the cave entrance, but nothing inside."
Feng Tianning raised his eyebrows and looked at them:
"So you were just waiting here, and you didn't expect me to show up?"
Xuan Ming nodded and said:
"Please enlighten me, sir."
Feng Tianning looked at them, hesitated for a moment, and still didn't tell them about Pangu.
She then asked:
"When did you realize something was wrong?"
"Three days ago, a large amount of demonic energy suddenly appeared here, and the little ghosts sent to investigate never returned."
"Last night, several of us Yama Kings came here in person, but there was already nothing inside."
Feng Tianning lowered his head and thought.
Three days ago seemed to be the day when she first saw the Night Wanderer.
Last night... was the first time she and Pangu "met", and she also wiped out all the night wandering gods.
"Is the Night Wanderer of the Underworld here?"
Xuan Ming was stunned for a moment, then shook his head and said:
"I haven't received any reports from the Night Wanderers during this period. I suspect they may have met with an accident."
"It's most likely the monster in this cave did it."
Xuan Ming didn't say a word, but Feng Tianning's brows furrowed even tighter.
She suddenly had a bad guess in her mind.
If Pangu disappeared last night, then what she saw that night might not be a clone, but him.
In other words, Pangu had already escaped to the human world at this moment.
Feng Tianning pursed his lips and suddenly thought of Feng Yangxi and Cang Yao who stayed at home.
"You don't need to worry about this anymore."
"Let's go."
Without waiting for them to speak, Feng Tianning waved his hand and left the underworld with Zhang Lan.
"Sir, should we still take action?"
A ghost messenger beside Xuanming asked cautiously.
He shook his head and said:
"Since this guy has taken action, I guess this time the trouble is going to be big."
"This is not something we in the underworld can control."
"So we're not going to do anything?"
Xuan Ming hesitated for a moment and said:
"During this period, all matters of the underworld, big or small, will be handed over to the other nine Yamas. I will go to the Heavenly Palace to meet the Jade Emperor."
After saying that, Xuanming waved his hand and left the underworld.
He arrived outside the Lingxiao Palace, hesitating whether to go in.
"Xuan Ming?"
Xuan Ming looked back and found that it was Taibai Jinxing who was looking at him in surprise from behind.
He bowed to Taibai Jinxing, lowered his head and said nothing.
"The King of Hell cannot go to the Heavenly Palace without permission. Why are you here?"
"Did the Jade Emperor summon you?"
Listening to Taibai Jinxing's questions, Xuanming didn't know how to start.
After a long while, he took a deep breath and stepped into the Lingxiao Palace.
"I have something important to report to the Jade Emperor."
The last time he showed this expression was when the monkey caused trouble in the underworld, and Xuanming came here with the torn Book of Life and Death to complain.
This is the first time Xuanming has come to the Heavenly Palace since that time.
Taibai Jinxing's eyebrows twitched, and he suddenly had an ominous premonition.
He hurriedly followed Xuanming's footsteps to the Lingxiao Palace and looked at him nervously.
Xuan Ming thought for a moment and told Feng Tianning everything he had done in the underworld in the past.
The Jade Emperor didn't really care about what he said before. After all, it was not a big deal for a god to take a back door.
Besides, Feng Tianning didn't do anything out of line.
Even if she did, she was Nuwa, and even the Jade Emperor couldn't say anything.
