Chapter 1175 This is called officials protecting each other

After saying their final goodbyes, Ye Linglong and Shen Lixian flew away from the Forgotten River as Man Shurou watched them go.

When they flew to the agreed edge of the Underworld Sea, they saw three ghost messengers waiting for them there, 7025, Jialiu and Heijiu.

"Miss, you are finally here!"

When 7025 saw them, he immediately came over and looked a little impatient.

There were three of them when they went to the Forgotten River, but only two when they reached the Underworld Sea. There was obvious confusion in their eyes, but no one asked.

Is this the professional ethics of the ghost messengers? They really know their limits!

Ye Linglong glanced at the still bustling Nether Sea and asked, "What's going on in the Nether Sea?"

"The explosion attracted a lot of people, and also woke up all the fierce ghosts dormant underneath, and they fought each other.

But the power and range of the explosion were too great, and many powerful ghosts were awakened, so the underworld has ordered all ghost officials without special missions to go to the underworld sea to suppress these powerful ghosts, and now everyone is in a hurry.

But don't worry, Miss, Zhaocai ate very cleanly. Apart from the explosion and the powerful ghost below, they found nothing. So far, no one knows why the accident happened."

7025 explained the matter succinctly and clearly, so that Ye Linglong could not find anything he needed to ask.

"All the ghost officials have to go to suppress it, don't you need to go?" Ye Linglong asked with a smile.

"A-16 reported to my superiors that he was on a special mission, so I don't have to go." 7025 smiled proudly.

"Heijiu reported to my superiors that he is on a special mission, so I don't have to go." Jialiu also smiled brightly.

"As a ghost messenger, you can assign tasks to yourself and ignore them." Hei Jiu spread his hands arrogantly.

Good guy, Ye Linglong has experienced what it means when officials protect each other.

This can also protect one layer at a time and cover everyone.

"Let's go back to the place where the three-eyed evil spirit of world destruction was sent."

"Miss, the ghost messenger has a magic weapon that can teleport to several important places in the underworld, such as the Ghost Gate, the Hades, etc. But currently there is no landing point in the Mountains of the Living Dead. The nearest teleportation point to there is the City of the Dead. Do you think we should go to the City of the Dead first or fly to the Mountains of the Living Dead?" 7025 asked.

"Then let's go to the City of the Dead first."

"Miss, the City of the Dead has a rule that you cannot leave the city gates overnight. If we go there at this time, it will be too late for us to leave. We have to stay overnight."

Seeing Ye Linglong hesitate, 7025 said, "If you choose to fly there, the flight time is about six hours, which is a little earlier than the city gates open at dawn."

"Let's go to the City of the Dead first."

"Okay."

After saying this, 7025 took out their magic weapon for teleportation and teleported Ye Linglong with him.

They landed right at the city gate of the City of the Dead, but when they landed, the city gate just closed. Ye Linglong even heard the sound of the gate closing when he stood still.

In front of her was the closed gate of the City of the Dead. She looked up and could see the stone plaque on the gate. The three big characters "City of the Dead" on the plaque were written in very sloppy but also very mottled characters, as if telling of the length of time.

Behind her was endless noise and bustling crowds.

For a moment, she felt as if she had returned to the human world, with its bustling streets, bright lights, the loud whispers of passers-by, the hawking of vendors, and everything else.

Ye Linglong turned his head and saw a prosperous and bustling street. There were many figures on the street, or to be more precise, souls coming and going.

It is very obvious that some of these souls are from the human world, some are from the demon world, some are even from the devil world, and some seem to be ghosts.

The four tribes lived together in one city, which gave people a feeling of being in the underworld.

Seeing Ye Linglong standing at the city gate watching the endless stream of souls coming and going without moving, 7025 walked up to her smartly and introduced her.

"The souls in the City of the Dead were all powerful figures in their lifetime.

Generally, after dying and entering the underworld, one has to pass through the Ghost Gate, walk along the Yellow Spring Road, cross the Naihe Bridge, and then be judged by Yanluo before entering the cycle of reincarnation.

Some souls still hold grudges and are unwilling to cooperate with our process. They either jump into the River of Oblivion or wander around aimlessly. In the end, they will turn into wandering ghosts.

But those souls are relatively weak. Some souls are very strong, so strong that we, the ghost officials, dare not provoke them casually. These people do not want to enter the cycle of reincarnation and want to leave the underworld and return to the world they lived in before.

But they are already dead. When they enter the underworld, they only have souls but no bodies. In this case, they cannot go back, and it is useless to go back. So they stay in the underworld, either waiting for someone to pick them up, or rebuilding their bodies, or completely turning into ghosts and living in the underworld.

The place where these people stay in the underworld and are waiting to leave is the City of the Dead."

Ye Linglong nodded. No wonder they were discussing why the demons did not go to the City of the Dead but wandered around the Underworld Sea. It turned out there was such a reason.

It seems that many people from other realms are also trying their best to go to the underworld to rescue people.

Even though it is difficult, if you have the ability, you will succeed.

Jialiu and Heijiu were already used to introducing every detail of 7025 to Ye Linglong.

If it were in the past, they would definitely have doubts, but now after following the young lady and witnessing so many of her methods, they no longer have doubts.

There must be other reasons why she needs an introduction, but only the most favored 7025 knows the reason.

"Then let's go into the city and rest for a night."

"Okay." 7025 said attentively, "The conditions at our ghost messenger's inn in Wangsi City are pretty good. I'll take you there."

Ye Linglong and his group attracted a lot of attention as they walked on the road, because compared to the souls all over the city, they, a few people with real bodies, were really eye-catching.

The most eye-catching one is Shen Lixian. His evil aura has attracted the attention of many souls. No one knows who he is here to pick up and who can leave this ghost place.

At this moment, a soft and boneless hand stood in front of Shen Lixian. They all turned around and saw the soul of a fox demon.

She had a very charming smile and a very seductive figure.

"My lord, you are here in the City of the Dead. Are you interested in having a drink?"

Shen Lixian didn't even look at her, and just uttered two words coldly.

"no."

The fox demon sighed in disappointment, but she was unwilling to give up: "No matter which tribe you belong to in the demon world, you should have heard of the fox tribe, right? I am a descendant of the royal family of the fox tribe. If you are willing to take me with you, I will reward you greatly when we return to the fox tribe. Just take me with you."

After she finished such a long speech, Shen Lixian still replied with two words.
