The man did not hesitate, and smiled strangely, trying to make himself look kinder, but in fact it was even more terrifying.
"Come in."
Mu Lingjiu stepped into the house and said to Lu Zhibai, "Wait for me outside."
Lu Zhibai was worried, "I'd better go with you."
"Wait outside." Mu Lingjiu made the decision.
Lu Zhibai subconsciously agreed to Mu Lingjiu and nodded, "Okay, I'll wait for you outside."
The man turned his head and glanced at Lu Zhibai, "Isn't he going in?"
"Just wait for me outside." Mu Lingjiu said.
The man didn't say much, just nodded and said, "Okay, then I'll treat you first."
As he spoke, his smile grew wider.
When I entered the house, I found it very dull, like a snow cave. There was nothing inside, just a stone bed.
Naturally, Mu Lingjiu’s things were gone.
Mu Lingjiu withdrew his gaze and looked at the man.
"How long have you lived here?"
The man thought for a moment, "About a few decades? I can't remember exactly. Why, the girl is interested in this?"
Mu Lingjiu shook his head. "I placed something in this room decades ago. I wonder if you've seen it? It was a purple box."
The man said "oh" and suddenly took out a purple box from his arms.
"Is this the thing you're talking about? I thought its owner didn't want it anymore."
Mu Lingjiu tilted her head. Various cracks appeared on the box. It was obvious that the man had tried various methods to open the box but failed.
Mu Lingjiu has placed a restriction on this box. Even someone who knows runes well cannot open it. This is a sealing spell that only she can open.
"Can you give me back my things? I can avenge you."
The man smiled and put the box away. "Why should I believe you? This is the first time we meet."
"Then how can you believe me?" Mu Lingjiu asked back.
The man hesitated for a moment and said, "How about this, you tell me what's inside. If the answer is correct, I'll give it to you. If the answer is wrong, I can't give it to you."
"Here are two Qiankun Stones and one Longyang Stone." Mu Lingjiu said calmly, "You won't need them."
She placed it here precisely because she knew it was incompatible with the Nine Netherworld Qi, but she didn't expect it to be taken away.
The man frowned after hearing this.
But he quickly asked, "Anything else?"
"There are also some rare treasures." Mu Lingjiu said.
"So..." The man nodded seriously, not knowing what he was thinking about.
"Then tell me what kind of reward you will give me? You are the first person I have met in all these years. I believe you will not treat me unfairly?"
Mu Lingjiu said: "I can give you some Nine Nether Stones."
The Nine Nether Stone contains the power of the Nine Nether, so it should be needed.
The man opposite hummed, as if he wanted to agree, but was a little hesitant.
"One thousand Nine Nether Stones." Mu Lingjiu said.
Hearing this, he immediately became excited. "Okay, okay, okay, one thousand Nine Nether Stones. If you give them to me now, I will give them to you. It's a fair trade."
"I don't have that many Nine Nether Stones on me. How about I give them to you after I get out?"
"How do I know if you'll come back after you leave? The risk is too great."
"Don't worry, I'll definitely come back. If you don't believe me, I can ask a friend to get it for me. How about that?"
"That's perfect. He goes to get his things, and we stay here to drink. Why not?"
Mu Lingjiu immediately said to Bazhua, "Bazhua, go get something."
Upon hearing this, Bazhua immediately took the order and left.
Looking at the octopus running out from Mu Lingjiu, the man licked his lips and said, "This thing can be roasted and eaten."
Mu Lingjiu immediately said, "This is my friend."
"Ah, I was just kidding. You're the first person I've met, and also my first friend since I was reborn as the Nine Nether Emperor. If you help me regain my power, I'll make you a general when I conquer the Nine Provinces. What do you think?"
It looked at Mu Lingjiu with anticipation.
Mu Lingjiu's mouth twitched slightly, but he suppressed his emotions and asked professionally, "I wonder what the Nine Nether Emperor's plan is?"
The 'Nine Nether Emperor' said, "I've practiced this in my mind for a long time. The reason I failed before might be that I wasn't ruthless enough. I didn't kill all the gods, and even let some go. This allowed them to unite and fight me. If I were to defeat them one by one, then those gods wouldn't be able to do anything to me."
"From now on, you stay by my side, and we'll kill gods together! What do you say? Okay?"
It looked crazy.
Mu Lingjiu said seriously, "It's not impossible, but the outside world has changed a long time ago. There are no gods anymore. Where can I find a god?"
As soon as these words were spoken, the Nine Nether Emperor felt a splitting headache instantly.
He thought he should know how to find God, but he actually didn't.
What went wrong?
He began to doubt whether he was still the Nine Nether Emperor. If he was not the Nine Nether Emperor, then what was he?
What am I?
Did you forget?
"Wait a minute, let me think about it."
Mu Lingjiu was not in a hurry and just looked at him.
He covered his head and looked extremely painful. While he was feeling the pain, his body seemed to be falling apart, each with its own thoughts.
It took him a while to calm down, and he said to Mu Lingjiu:
"I know. They killed me and hid me, so I don't know where they are. I fell into a deep sleep."
"But you should know where they will hide?" Mu Lingjiu asked.
The man rubbed his brows. "How should I know? He must be hiding. He's like a rat in a gutter. Disgusting."
Mu Lingjiu smiled without comment.
It was obvious that the man's mind was becoming more and more confused.
He kept rubbing his eyebrows and temples.
Mu Lingjiu also knew that this thing contained some of the Nine Nether Emperor's memories in its brain, but this part of the memory was only eavesdropped from somewhere, so it was not comprehensive.
In other words, these monsters on the third floor inherited part of the Nine Nether Emperor's memories and believed themselves to be the Nine Nether Emperor.
In fact, he is not the Nine Nether Emperor, and is not even half as good as the Nine Nether Emperor.
It's just a monster that was created without knowing how, and it has long lost its own thoughts.
"I heard that there is a world beyond heaven in your era?" Mu Lingjiu asked.
It looked crazy, staring at Mu Lingjiu, "Heaven Beyond Heaven, what Heaven Beyond Heaven? I don't know what you are talking about. I have never seen Heaven Beyond Heaven."
It was filled with anger, and the Nine Nether Qi around it became thicker and thicker. Mu Lingjiu could feel the oppression,
She let out a breath and mumbled, "It's been so long, it's normal to have forgotten. But, can you tell me what God is like?"
His face was pale, and his mind was devoid of any memories. He didn't even remember the God War, but he had a mission in mind that he had to complete.
