Endless Mountains, Sunset City!
In an ordinary tavern!
A burly man was sitting by the window, sipping the wine in his glass thoughtfully!
Not far from him, an elegant scholar in white ordered a few side dishes and sipped wine with satisfaction!
"Good wine, good wine!"
"I've been drinking wine for decades, but your wine is still the best!"
Although the scholar in white appears to be refined in appearance, his words are extremely heroic.
"Sir, you're joking. If it weren't for your care, my tavern would have closed down long ago!"
Hearing the words of the scholar in white, the owner of the tavern smiled slightly, obviously not taking the scholar's words seriously.
The family knows their own business. Their wine is brewed with the most common grains and cannot be compared with the spiritual wine in those big restaurants.
"Boss, don't believe me. It's really hard to find a few places that sell pure wine like yours these days!"
The scholar in white took another sip and said seriously to the tavern owner!
“Snap!”
An ingot of bright yellow gold was placed on the table.
"Boss, check out!"
"This... Sir, I can't find it!"
Looking at the heavy gold on the table, the tavern owner was suddenly at a loss.
That's a full ten taels of gold. Judging from the income of his tavern, it would be difficult for him to make that much money in a year!
"Boss, no need to change. Just consider this money as the payment for the wine I left here. I don't want to never be able to drink such delicious wine next time I come here!"
The scholar in white smiled slightly, with a hint of determination in his smile!
In Sunset City, in a deserted alley!
The scholar in white looked quietly at the deserted alley and said softly, "Come out. You've been following me all the way here for so long, aren't you tired?"
As soon as the white-robed scholar finished speaking, a burly figure appeared.
It was the burly man who had been sitting not far from the scholar in white!
"Oh, it's you!"
Looking at the burly man who appeared, the scholar in white chuckled and was not surprised at all!
However, the burly man's next words instantly filled the white-clothed scholar's heart with a sense of vigilance!
"Rumor has it that Fu Taosheng is now a disheveled, alcoholic beggar. I never thought rumors were just that, rumors. They shouldn't be taken seriously!"
"Who is Fu Taosheng? This name seems familiar!"
The scholar in white frowned slightly, as if he was recalling who Fu Taosheng was!
"Haha, Fu Taosheng, you don't have to pretend. Now that I've found you, I must have confirmed your identity!"
With a chuckle, Emperor Jiu, dressed in a black robe, appeared in the alley!
"The Underworld? You are actually from the Underworld!"
Looking at Di Jiu's sudden change of attire, Fu Taosheng exclaimed and took two steps forward with obvious excitement!
With light steps, Di Jiu dodged Fu Taosheng's extended dirty hand without leaving a trace!
"You actually know the existence of the underworld?"
Emperor Jiu's eyes narrowed slightly, and a trace of vigilance towards Fu Taosheng arose in his heart!
"Of course, who in the martial arts world doesn't know the name of the underworld nowadays?"
Fu Taosheng slightly suppressed the excitement in his heart and told Di Jiu about the black robe incident that had occurred in major cities in the Tianwu Dynasty!
"Forehead..."
Emperor Jiu rolled his eyes. He didn't expect that the first time the Underworld became famous in the Tianwu Continent was because of its uniforms.
"Fu Taosheng, I wonder if the promise you made before is still valid?"
Looking at the scholar in white in front of him, although Di Jiu was a little bit unconvinced, he had no choice but to believe it!
A few days ago, after he discovered something unusual about the handsome young man, he had been following him.
Now, the scholar in white in front of him is the handsome young man after changing his clothes!
He could feel that this scholar in white clothes had a huge amount of energy hidden in him!
But this energy was suppressed by another energy in his body!
This energy is the ghostly energy of the underworld that Emperor Jiu felt before!
Logically speaking, something like the ghostly aura of the underworld shouldn't appear on Fu Taosheng's body.
In order to find out the secret of Fu Taosheng, Di Jiu followed Fu Taosheng for three consecutive days.
However, for three whole days, Fu Taosheng was either drinking or on his way to drink!
After spending three full days, Emperor Jiu finally couldn't help but jump out!
No matter what secrets Fu Taosheng has, as long as he enters the underworld, he will find a way to make him spit them out!
"Promise? What promise?"
Hearing Di Jiu's question, Fu Taosheng was obviously stunned!
"What promise? What else could it be? Of course, it's a promise that after I help you expel the strange energy in your body, you will be willing to serve it as your master!"
Looking at the dazed Fu Taosheng, a dangerous light flashed in Di Jiu's eyes.
This guy's behavior was so abnormal that he began to doubt whether he had found the wrong person!
"Hmm? You mean..."
Fu Taosheng narrowed his eyes slightly. He didn't believe that the black-robed man in front of him could expel the strange energy that even the powerful people in the Venerable Realm could not expel.
"That's right, I can expel the strange energy in your body, and I can even transform this energy into energy you can use!"
After knowing that the strange energy in Fu Taosheng's body is the ghost energy of the underworld, everything becomes easy!
The ghost energy of the underworld is an extremely special kind of spiritual energy of heaven and earth, which cannot be directly absorbed by warriors.
Once a warrior forcibly absorbs the ghost energy of the Netherworld, the ghost energy of the Netherworld will attach to the warrior's dantian like a bone-eating ant!
In the underworld, the red spider lily grows on the Yellow Springs Road and beside the Naihe Bridge. It feeds on the ghostly energy of the underworld and uses the water of the Wangchuan River as nourishment.
If you want to perfectly absorb this ghostly energy from the underworld, the red spider lily is indispensable.
Therefore, in his previous life, Fu Taosheng did not gain a new life after taking the Huangquan Pill.
Instead, he merged the Netherworld ghost energy in his body with his own spiritual energy to form a new kind of power, and through it he reached the realm of the Venerable!
"If you can really help me get rid of the strange energy in my body, I, Fu Taosheng, am willing to respect you as my master!"
He bowed respectfully to the black-robed man in front of him. This was the first time Fu Taosheng acknowledged his identity after meeting Di Jiu.
“No, no, no!”
"I'm just an errand boy. You should respect the Lord of our underworld!"
He shook his head slightly, and a familiar smile appeared at the corner of Emperor Jiu's mouth under the mask!
"Palace Master?"
However, what Emperor Jiu didn't know was that Fu Taosheng, who was bowing to greet him, suddenly had his pupils shrink when he heard the word "Lord of the Mansion" from Emperor Jiu's mouth!
How is this possible!!!
How could there be a Lord in the underworld???
The underworld shouldn't have a master nowadays!!!
