As time went by, the scent of souls in the park became stronger and stronger, as if it had permeated every corner.
Chuchu's spells became more and more rapid, and a hint of nervousness appeared on her face.
A moment later, a strong yin energy suddenly surged from the depths of the park. Everyone's heart tightened, knowing that the Ghost King had arrived.
As the powerful yin energy approached, the atmosphere in the park instantly grew tense. Chuchu's spell reached its climax at this moment, her figure looming in the moonlight, like a goddess about to go into battle.
Her eyes were firm and resolute, as if she was ready to fight to the death with the Ghost King.
With a "bang," a figure suddenly burst out from the gloomy atmosphere. It was the Ghost King. He was clad in a black robe, his face ferocious, his eyes gleaming with a green light, making him look extremely terrifying. His gaze swept over everyone, finally settling on Chu Chu, a cruel smile curling his lips.
Xiao Qian stood in front of Chu Chu.
"It turns out that it was the Qingming Princess who I haven't seen for a long time. She set a soul trap for me!" The Ghost King's voice was hoarse and gloomy, which made people shudder.
"Ghost King, you have committed such a heinous crime, and yet you dare to appear before me?" Chu Chu met the Ghost King's gaze without fear, her voice firm and powerful.
"Haha, what crime have I committed? I'm just pursuing the ultimate power." The Ghost King laughed wildly, moved his body, and rushed towards Chu Chu.
Seeing this, Chuchu transformed into the form of an imperial princess and swung her Qingming Sword with a fierce force, piercing the Ghost King's chest. However, the Ghost King seemed to have not seen it, dodging the attack with a flash of his body. He slapped back with his palm, and a powerful palm force instantly sent Chuchu flying.
Upon seeing this, Tianyi transformed into a massive black cat and pounced upon the Ghost King. Its claws were sharp as knives, and each strike contained immense power. However, the Ghost King seemed unfazed. With a simple wave of his hand, a burst of black energy sent Tianyi flying.
Upon seeing this, Qingtian immediately transformed into his original form, a gigantic dog, carrying Chuchu and charging towards the Ghost King. He was incredibly fast, reaching the Ghost King in the blink of an eye. However, the Ghost King simply smiled and slapped them with one palm, sending Qingtian and Chuchu flying backwards.
Lu Chenguang attacked again, but magic was like playing the lute to a cow against the evil spirit. He was attacked by the magic, spitting out blood and turned into a child.
The Ghost King's power was so strong that it was unbelievable that even if everyone joined forces they couldn't hurt him at all.
Seeing this, Chuchu knew she couldn't continue like this, otherwise everyone would be defeated one by one by the Ghost King. She took a deep breath and began to mobilize the dark power in her body with all her strength.
"Ghost King, do you think you are really strong? Today, I will let you see the true strength of the Princess of the Underworld!" Chuchu's voice echoed in the night sky, and her figure began to become blurred.
As Chuchu's chanting grew more rapid, her silhouette gradually became clearer. The Qingming Sword in her hand transformed into a massive black sickle, its blade gleaming with a faint, dark fire. With a fierce swing of the sickle, a black blade slashed towards the Ghost King.
Seeing this, the Ghost King didn't dare to be careless. He formed seals with his hands, and a powerful black energy gathered in front of him to form a barrier. However, the black blade light seemed to be able to destroy anything, easily breaking through the barrier and slashing directly at the Ghost King.
The Ghost King was shocked. He had not expected Chu Chu's strength to be so strong. He quickly took a step back and narrowly avoided the attack.
However, before he could even breathe a sigh of relief, Chuchu swung her sickle again. This time, she aimed it directly at the Ghost King's head.
The Ghost King was horrified, knowing he could no longer hide. He took a deep breath and thrust his hands forward. An even more powerful black energy condensed into a massive black ball before him. The black ball collided with the black blade light, emitting a deafening roar.
At that moment, a sudden commotion erupted. Hundreds of figures, clad in black robes and armed with weapons, suddenly emerged from all directions, attacking the Ghost King. These were all warriors from the Underworld sent by the Pluto. Upon learning that the Ghost King was causing chaos in the human world, they rushed to his aid.
The Ghost King was horrified upon seeing this. He hadn't expected the King of Hell to personally send his men to capture him. He knew he was in a desperate situation, but he refused to surrender. With a furious roar, he suddenly sprang up, transforming into a gigantic ghost. His hands transformed into sharp claws, and he launched a fierce attack on the surrounding ghost messengers of the underworld.
However, the warriors of the underworld were not afraid at all. They waved their weapons and fought fiercely with the Ghost King.
Although the Ghost King was extremely powerful, he gradually began to lose the strength under the siege of so many underworld warriors.
Seeing this, Chuchu knew this was the perfect time to defeat the Ghost King. She swung her sickle again, striking at the Ghost King's head. This time, she gave him no chance. The black blade light instantly split the Ghost King's head, knocking his soul out of his body.
Chuchu fought bravely in this battle, but she was ultimately wounded. She lay exhausted on the ground, her figure instantly shrinking to the size of a three-year-old child. The blazing crimson flames above her head slowly died, leaving only the bright moonlight of the night sky casting its shadow over her.
With a more violent power fluctuation, except for Lu Chenguang, the rest of the people were brought into the underworld by this power. They were surrounded by the mysterious aura of the underworld, and everything before them became strange and mysterious.
The Ghost King was locked tightly in the Death Chain, lying in front of the Pluto in a state of panic. His former arrogance had completely vanished, leaving only endless fear and despair.
Chu Chu struggled to stand up and looked up at the Hades, her eyes filled with confusion and doubt. She asked, "Father, the Ghost King has been captured by us, why did you summon me back to the Underworld?"
The Hades looked at her, his eyes filled with both love and reproach: "Chu Chu, I warned you before not to act on your own. Have you forgotten? The boundary between the human world and the underworld cannot be easily crossed. Your actions this time have violated the rules of the underworld."
Tianyi and Qingtian knelt before Hades, "We failed to protect the princess. Please punish us, Lord Hades!"
"As Chuchu's guardians, you two should have ensured her safety, yet you failed." A hint of authority lingered in Hades' voice. "However, in consideration of your loyalty to the Underworld, I will grant you a lighter punishment this time. You and Chuchu will be punished together, and the duration of your punishment will be determined by me."
"Yanlie, have you recovered your memory?" asked Hades.
Xiao Qian stepped forward and saluted respectfully, "Yes, Lord Pluto. I have recovered my memories of my past life, but my strength has not yet fully recovered."
The Hades frowned slightly, clearly dissatisfied with Xiao Qian's current situation. He said in a deep voice, "Yan Lie, as one of my elite, you should possess great power to protect the Underworld. However, you are so weak now. How can I be assured?"
Xiao Qian lowered his head and remained silent. He knew that Hades had high expectations of him, but he also understood that his current situation was indeed worrying.
Chu Chu said, "Yan Lie can't do that. If he doesn't go back, it's the same as if he's dead."
