Ying Rujin, that is her real name.
female.
She came from Jiangcheng, China, and had never committed any major wrongdoings in her life. She and her sister died in a car accident four years ago.
Emerging from the Reincarnation Bureau for the second time, Su Deng looked at the cyberpunk-style underworld filled with skyscrapers and cutting-edge technology, and for the first time felt the chill of the place.
It creeps up from the soles of my feet, freezing my blood so hard it feels like my whole body is frozen.
Imagine this is a game, and each of them has a personal profile and background to facilitate missions and activities.
It's normal for their information to be in the Book of Rebirth in the Underworld.
Everyone else had one, but she didn't.
Furthermore, judging from Qin Xian's reaction, the biographical information Yao Zhi investigated about other people must also be true.
Even if Divine Court Technology is truly powerful enough to extract player data and simulate a life exactly like a real person's,
but--
The game is a pre-defined framework, and the NPCs are naturally pre-defined as well.
No one knows who will enter this game.
So the character designs and stories are pre-set; they're just fitted into the players' personas.
But now every player who comes in looks exactly the same.
And he's already dead!
Especially Liu Sangua, who was actually a person from more than 1,100 years ago!
Su Deng didn't believe the game was real.
But all of this is terrifyingly real.
“Su…Su Deng…” Qin Xian’s mind went blank. “Could it be…that we are all really dead…”
He's like that; you can't expect him to use his brain at all.
The butcher was taken away, but he will definitely escape again.
Before he comes out, let's find out what's going on with this underworld.
With a deep look in her eyes, Su Deng grabbed Qin Xian, who was still reeling from the shock of her own death, and led him toward Meng Po Manor.
Yao Zhi said that in the underworld today, everything is done according to order.
There is more than one judge; they take turns on duty.
Those who can be found in the Book of Reincarnation are all people who have come to the underworld to be reincarnated.
It cannot be used to check living people.
The book that can be used to check the records of living people is called the Book of Life and Death.
The Book of Life and Death is very important and has always been kept by Meng Po.
However, since 500 years ago, Meng Po's soup has been mass-produced using technology, eliminating the need for manual labor. Therefore, Meng Po is no longer responsible for cooking the soup, nor is she in the Department of Reincarnation. Meng Po has thus assumed a self-imposed position.
Meng Po's self-imposed cap caused the Manjusaka flowers along the eight hundred miles of the Yellow Springs to wither away, leaving the area barren as it is today.
Because of the crescent moon's aura marking them, Su Deng and Qin Xian traveled smoothly without any hindrance or arrest by the ghost messengers.
When they found Meng Po Village, they saw a dilapidated thatched hut, standing desolate and ruined in the vast yellow sand, with the turbid Yellow Spring water churning and flowing under the broken bridge behind the hut.
"That is..."
When they got closer, they discovered that there were two other people outside Meng Po's Village.
Somewhat familiar.
Qin Zheng was stunned for a moment, then recognized them: "It's Liu Sangua and Zi Xiang!"
Wearing a veiled hat and dressed in a plain blue robe, Liu Sangua stood there with his arms crossed, exuding a cool and aloof aura.
Zi Xiang was much taller than him, wearing a flowing purple gauze skirt with the hem fluttering only behind her waist. Her legs were fair and long, and she held a purple pipe that looked like a bamboo joint in her hand.
Charming and enchanting.
The fox ears on her head made her look just like a fox spirit.
The two stood together, neither of them speaking.
Noticing someone approaching, they turned around.
Su Su paused slightly, "Who is Zi Xiang?"
Qin Xian was surprised to see her there and whispered in shock, "She's the president of the Tianxing Guild!"
"The president of the Tianxing Guild?" Su Deng frowned slightly.
"I heard she likes Liu Sangua, I never expected her to come here..." After his initial shock, Qin Xian muttered under his breath, "Could they really be having an affair..."
One is the vice president of the Eight Gods Guild, and the other is the president of the Heavenly Star Guild. If they were to join forces, it would be equivalent to a merger of the two guilds.
One is first, and the other is second; either of them alone is enough to make people wary.
If they merge, what chance do the other guilds have?
"You must be Su Deng?"
Zi Xiang walked over, her high heels clattering steadily in the sand. She twirled a clean pipe, unlit, in her hand, around Su Deng's lamp.
"Aside from being a little pretty, she doesn't seem to have anything special about her."
She commented on Su Deng, then turned to look at Liu Sangua, "Are you sure she's really some kind of game-changer?"
Su Deng frowned. "What game-changer?"
Zi Xiang raised an eyebrow and asked Liu Sangua, "You didn't tell her?"
"You talk too much." Liu Sangua glanced at her coldly through the veil, then walked over and looked at Su Deng. "You've come to see Meng Po, haven't you?"
Su Deng took a step back, distancing herself from him and Zi Xiang. "You knew I would come here."
"Yes." Liu Sangua nodded frankly. "I'll wait for you here."
Su Deng took another step back, bracing herself for defense.
Zi Xiang smiled and said, "Don't be afraid, we won't kill you."
"Who would confess to murder?" Qin Xian muttered to himself.
Zi Xiang looked over, and the invisible pressure made Qin Xian shrink his neck and dart behind Su Deng.
After a moment of silence.
Zi Xiang spoke first, "Are you sure you want to waste your time like this? If Liu Shen can't say it, I can say it."
He remained silent for a long while.
Liu Sangua finally spoke, "You've been in the Divine Court game for less than half a month, and this is your fourth game. I don't know if telling you this now is good or bad for you, but I think if you knew in advance..."
"Are you saying that this underworld is actually real?" Seeing that he was starting to hesitate, Su Deng narrowed her eyes.
