Chapter 638
There were people who were busy watching the show and they also encountered a fight with two evil ghosts. But not long after, several chains flew out from the dark energy that permeated the surroundings and flew straight towards the two evil ghosts. The evil ghosts turned around and tried to run, but they could not outrun the chains, which were too long, and in the end they were tied up and dragged back.
Then two ghost messengers flew out from the mist, trying to take away the tightly tied evil ghost. Before leaving, they glanced in the direction of Yuan Jing and Yan Yuansen, then stopped and flew towards them, pulling the evil ghost tied with a chain.
These two ghost messengers were much stronger than the little ghost messengers Yuan Jing and his friends had seen before. They looked alert and cautious and asked, "Where are you from and where are you going?"
Yuan Jing and Yan Yuansen looked at each other, knowing that they had been seen through by the two men, so they simply said frankly: "We came from the world of the living to investigate a fierce ghost that escaped to the underworld. We would like to ask the underworld to help investigate the whereabouts of that fierce ghost."
"Really? Well, please follow us."
Yuan Jing and Yan Yuansen did not refuse and entered the city with the two of them. Their previous activities were outside the city.
On the way, the two men looked at the scenery around them while telling the two ghost messengers about the evil ghosts in the world, especially the evil ghost who escaped into the underworld with the City God Seal in his hand. The two ghost messengers were shocked. They, the underworld, were completely unaware of this matter, so they did not dare to delay. After entering the city, they handed the evil ghosts over to relevant personnel for disposal, and then took them to see their superior, a judge in the Palace of Yama.
The judge was also shocked to see the two of them. Although their bodies were condensed from materials, he could tell that they were living souls that entered the underworld, and they possessed enormous merits. No wonder they dared to break into the underworld with their living souls. Perhaps they were some masters who entered the human world for training, and would return to the upper realm after the training was completed. Therefore, he would never dare to offend such people, because their status would definitely be much higher than his.
"Please take a seat, both of you. Please wait for a moment. I will invite the King of Hell to come."
Yuan Jing and Yan Yuansen had just used two Yin Fruits that were helpful to souls when Qin Yanwang arrived. There were ten Yama Palaces in the underworld, and the Yama Palace under the jurisdiction of Qin Yanwang was one of them. The underworld also formed ten large cities around these ten Yama Palaces. The operation of the entire underworld was maintained by Yin messengers of different sizes and ranks.
It was what they saw along the way that made Yuan Jing and Yan Yuansen feel relieved. The entire underworld should still be in order. There may be some problems in some areas, but there is no major chaos, so it is not a big deal.
King Qin Yan also did not put on airs. He had better eyesight than the judge. Although he had a lot of power due to his high position, it was nothing to Yuan Jing and Yan Yuansen. After learning more details about Yuchi Yan from Yuan Jing and Yan Yuansen, King Qin Yan pondered for a while and said, "We will do our best to investigate this matter. Your suspicion may be correct. There are ghosts in the underworld who are helping to cover up everything about Yuchi Yan."
King Qin even looked up information about Yin Yi's past and present lives. Yuan Jing and Yan Yuansen watched it together. Yuchi Yan's vision was not wrong. Yin Yi's previous life was indeed a person that Yuchi Yan cared about. But there was a problem. Although Yin Yi was a cultivator in his previous life, he committed a crime of heaven by forcibly changing the fate of a certain prince, which resulted in his soul being torn apart and he would not even have the chance to reincarnate.
Qin Yanwang was shocked: "Sure enough, someone in the underworld has been bribed, otherwise they would not have failed to see the problem with Yin Yi, how could he be reincarnated again? This Yuchi Yan is indeed very problematic. You two can rest assured that the underworld will investigate this matter thoroughly. You two may as well stay here as guests. Qin will order someone to investigate right away."
"You are too polite, sir. Please don't pay attention to us. We are just walking around here. It's a rare visit."
King Qin asked his judges to take good care of the two, and he hurried back to communicate with other kings of hell and find out which way Yuchi Yan had used to send Yin Yi to reincarnate.
Yuan Jing and Yan Yuansen walked in the city, looking at the surrounding scenery and the ghost town residents coming and going. He was surprised and said, "Do you think Yin Yi was really in love with Yuchi Yan in his previous life? He didn't even care about his own life. He wanted to help a prince at that time change his fate. He didn't hesitate to go against the will of heaven and be punished by heaven. He couldn't have known that he would end up with his soul torn apart, but he still did it."
Yan Yuansen sneered: "I guess Yin Yi was a love-brained person in his previous life, and he is still a love-brained person in this life, but the person he likes has changed."
He also agreed with Yuan Jing's view that the so-called lover in the previous life was actually just Yuchi Yan's unilateral cognition. He made so many arrangements, not only to send Yin Yi to reincarnate, but also to hope that after reincarnation, Yin Yi would forget everything about his previous life and fall in love with Yuchi Yan in this life.
Yuan Jing suddenly felt that these two people were a big joke: "I wonder how Yin Yi would feel when he learned the truth about his past life."
"It won't be too wonderful, Yuchi Yan will be in a bad mood too." Yan Yuansen laughed. Maybe Yuchi Yan had even deceived himself and believed that Yin Yi loved him in his previous life. When they exposed it in front of Yuchi Yan, he wondered if this guy would be angry and embarrassed.
While shopping, the two of them also used the things in their hands to exchange for some items. For example, the fruit unique to the underworld that they had eaten before was very effective. There were also crops and natural treasures that were unique to this world and could not be grown in the outside world.
After Yuan Jing and the others left, King Qin of Hell immediately communicated with the other nine Kings of Hell. They each held a special mirror, through which they could see each other and talk to each other. At King Qin of Hell's call, the other nine Kings of Hell soon appeared in the mirror.
"What's the matter?" These Yama Kings asked Yama King Qin directly without beating around the bush.
Qin Yanwang didn't waste any more words and told the details of the two people who came from the world of the living and the evil ghost who held the City God Seal in the world of the living, including the fact that Yin Yi, who should have been punished by heaven and had his soul destroyed, had been reincarnated.
"We understand. You want to see if there is anyone down there colluding with the evil spirits in the world of the living, right? We'll go down and check it out now, and contact you if there is any news." The other nine Hades went offline one after another, and only Qin the Hades remained in front of the mirror.
Sure enough, after a while, two more Yama Kings entered the mirror, namely Yama King Cui and Yama King Zuo.
"Lao Qin, you didn't leave because you were waiting for us. Do you also suspect that something went wrong with Lao Bi?" Cui Yanwang said with a sullen face.
Qin Yanwang nodded and said, "That's right, but I can't leave at the moment. But I believe you will show up, so I can only leave this matter to you."
"No problem." Zuo Yanwang replied, "Where did those two monks from the mortal world come from?"
King Qin touched his chin and said, "What those two entered our underworld were only a wisp of their spirit, not their soul itself. But a wisp of spirit is still very powerful and solid, especially their merits, which cannot be concealed in front of underworld messengers like us, not to mention their aura. I have a suspicion that they may have jumped out of the Three Realms and are no longer in the Five Elements."
"Really?" the two Yama Kings asked in surprise.
King Qin nodded and said, "I might as well tell you that I have checked their situations, but the record of Yu Yuanjing in the Book of Life and Death is very vague, and that Daoist Fellow Yan Yuansen is even stranger. The real Yan Yuansen was just an ordinary mortal who died in an accident and has now been reincarnated. But this Yan Yuansen doesn't seem to have possessed another body, so I guess he and Daoist Fellow Yu Yuanjing have the same origin."
King Cui and King Zuo were extremely surprised. They had not encountered such a situation for many years. No wonder Lao Qin was so cautious this time: "We understand. Let's go there right away. This should be our underworld's business."
After saying this, the two figures disappeared in the mirror. Qin Yanwang then closed the mirror, smiled first, and then turned around to go to work. As the King of Hell, he had a lot of official business.
King Yan Cui and King Yan Zuo appeared silently in another Yama Palace. Upon learning of their arrival, King Yan Bi was panicked for a moment, but then he forced himself to calm down and asked someone to invite the two in. When King Yan Cui and King Yan Zuo came in, he just glanced at him and suddenly attacked King Yan Bi.
"What are you doing?"
"What are you doing? You have the guts to impersonate the King of Hell! How can you impersonate the King of Hell?" The two Kings of Hell discovered the flaws in this man when they met for the first time, and attacked him together without saying anything.
They and King Qin had long suspected that something was wrong with King Bi, because over the years other Kings of Hell had often moved around and met privately, but King Bi himself had always appeared in the mirror to contact everyone. They asked other Kings of Hell, and they all said the same thing, so they became a little confused. The news brought from the world of the living this time made them even more suspicious, so they took this opportunity to give it a try.
Sure enough, the King Bi Yan who was sitting in the Hall of Yama was not the real King Bi Yan himself, but someone else impersonating him.
Some ghost officers came forward to help, while others were stunned after hearing what Cui Yanwang and the others said. If it wasn’t the Yanwang himself, then who was the Yanwang they had been facing for so many years?
True or not, after fighting with King Yan Cui and King Yan Zuo, the impostor revealed more and more flaws. Not having inherited the King Yan's Palace, the power he could mobilize was very limited. He could only rely on his own cultivation strength. He was soon beaten by the two King Yans and could hardly maintain his shape. Finally, several black spheres exploded, and thick black gas spread. When the black gas was dispersed by the two King Yans, they found that the guy pretending to be King Yan took the opportunity to escape.
"Damn it, it seems that our sudden arrival has put that guy on guard. Pass the order down, close the city gates and the Hades Palace, no one is allowed to enter or leave at will, and follow us two to find the real Hades."
With these two in charge, all the ghost officials who were obviously on the wrong side and stood on the side of the impostor were captured. The remaining ghost officials searched the entire Yama Palace with the two and finally found the real King Bi Yama, who had been trapped for many years and was very weak, in one of Yama's underground prisons. Only then did they realize that the person who was impersonating him was his judge in Yama Palace.
