Chapter 164: Let’s just make do with the final battle.
If we join forces with the Ghost King to deceive the Underworld, the Underworld may be able to reach a reconciliation with the living, but the fundamental contradiction has not been resolved and this reconciliation will not last.
"Go ahead, don't hold back on her."
Ming Hui said to the dead souls standing beside him,
"The blockade of the underworld has been lifted. She is useless."
The dead souls said in unison: "Yes!"
Before he could finish his words, a wrecked bus set on fire by amber fire appeared in front of Lin Zhuyue. It rushed towards Minghui with irresistible force. Minghui dodged it, and the bus rushed into the ghosts, knocking them away and tearing a hole in the dark team.
"How did you convince them?"
Lin Zhuyue spread out the Ukiyoe scroll in front of him and said,
"The breaking of the seal on the underworld is not a good thing for the souls who have joined the Ghost King!"
"It seems that the memories you obtained from me are incomplete."
Minghui had a smile in his eyes, and that smile carried a hint of the elder's contempt for the young. He said,
"Do you know how they joined Minghui City? I fulfilled the wishes of every ghost that came to Minghui City, signing a contract with them, requiring them to serve me at the critical moment. Ghosts' wishes, you call them obsessions... To fulfill their obsessions, they are willing to bear any consequences, including the scattering of their souls."
Lin Zhuyue raised her eyes, stared at Minghui coldly, and said, "You are really not a good person."
Ming Hui asked, "You talk too much. Do you want a beating?"
"Can you beat him?"
Lin Zhuyue stuck the blade in his left hand into the yellow sand, raised his hand and brushed across the picture on the Ukiyo-e scroll, and said,
"The Floating World·Mountains and Seas!"
The ferocious beasts appeared in front of Lin Zhuyue one after another.
Flying in the sky, running on the ground, swimming in the sand... the formation is quite spectacular.
Lin Zhuyue waved his hand and they all rushed towards Minghui, wanting to tear out his tendons and bones.
Kunpeng swallowed the evil into his mouth.
Minghui used his Yin Qi to prop up his mouth which was about to close. He closed his eyes and the Yin Qi burst out, as if to tear the giant beast in half.
Seeing that the situation was not good, Lin Zhuyue shouted, "Pulling the silk——!"
A figure identical to Ming Hui appeared. This was the part that Lin Zhuyue took away from Ming Hui with the silk thread. He was not complete, but Ming Hui was not complete now either. Using Ming Hui to deal with Ming Hui might be a very good way.
When Ming Hui saw Lin Zhuyue doing this, he was not panicked or angry, but laughed instead.
He raised his hand and cut off the thread connected to "Ming Hui", intending to break Lin Zhuyue's control over "Ming Hui" and take back this part.
But Lin Zhuyue had anticipated his actions. After the golden thread was severed, it immediately returned, as if Minghui had just cut it off an illusion. Minghui cut it several times, but the thread remained the same, and even more threads appeared, connecting more tightly than before.
"Take it back? Don't even think about it!"
Lin Zhuyue pointed at Minghui and said,
"Tear him apart!"
The ferocious beasts rushed forward.
The surrounding souls tried to offer support, but saw tiny golden petals floating around them. These petals were beautiful, but also dangerous. A mere touch would set their entire bodies ablaze with golden amber fire. This was the underworld, and they were also very powerful. The golden amber fire couldn't instantly burn them to ash, but it was enough to make them writhe on the ground in agony.
While Ming Hui was dealing with the ferocious beast, he was also distractedly looking at Lin Zhuyue.
Unknowingly, she had become so strong, probably even stronger than Ling Yan back then.
However, being strong is normal...
Her ability to come here and use the key to unlock the underworld proved that she was carrying a destiny. To fulfill this destiny, the Great Dao would grant her boundless power, making her, at only nineteen years old, equivalent to the entire Spiritual Master Mansion.
But she is still too young.
Black flames burned in Minghui's hands. He waved his hand, and his palm, like a blade, cut off Minghui's head.
The "bright evil" connected by the thread turned into gray-black ashes, and the thread also loosened.
The ashes did not disappear, but all flowed back into Minghui's body. The terrifying yin energy burst out from him again, and the gloomy wind blew away the surrounding ferocious beasts and ghosts.
The bright evil turned into black fog and attacked Lin Zhuyue like a tornado. The black fog was like a knife and the cold wind was like a blade. Wherever it passed, the blood and flesh of ferocious beasts flew everywhere.
Lin Zhuyue still stood in front of the gate of the underworld and did not move.
“Squeak—”
The red door behind opens inward.
The ghost officials dressed in black and white stood inside the door, but in the blink of an eye, they turned into mist, and when they reappeared, they were already blocking Lin Zhuyue.
A woman in black said, "Young lady from the Ling family, step back."
Lin Zhuyue recognized her: "Bai Lu?"
"You know me?" Bai Lu was a little surprised. Pointing at Ming Hui who had already stopped, he asked, "Did this bastard introduce you to me?"
Lin Zhuyue nodded, but she did not step back. Instead, she stretched out her hand to Minghui.
Countless golden threads passed through Minghui's soul, hanging him up like a puppet.
Ming Hui was surprised and tried to move his hands and feet, but the strings were so tight that he could hardly move.
Lin Zhuyue walked towards Minghui and said, "When you took back the part of you that was controlled by Qiansi, Qiansi also returned to you along with that part."
Ming Hui understood clearly and said, "You plotted against me."
"You've schemed against me a lot too." Lin Zhuyue said calmly, "If you scheme against others, you must be prepared to be schemed against in return."
Ming Hui asked, "Are you going to kill me?"
"No, I will hand you over to the underworld." Lin Zhuyue said to Ming Hui, "I really hate being controlled, but I have to admit that my growth to this point is in part due to you. Although I don't want to admit that you are my master, you do have a lot to thank me for your guidance."
Lin Zhuyue said, "You can see the egret now, Aman."
Ming Hui was stunned for a moment, then he lowered his head and said, "Yes, I can see egrets... egrets... and I can see the sun again."
Lin Zhuyue no longer paid attention to Minghui. She leaned back and lay on the ground with her arms and legs spread.
She looked up at the ghost messengers who had gathered around her and said, "Save Shican, save Tiancheng..."
Bai Lu responded, "Okay."
Lin Zhuyue fainted immediately.
"Hey! Don't sleep! Where is that Shi Chan you were talking about?"
After arriving in the underworld, she controlled Kunpeng and flew against the dark wind for more than ten hours. After a fierce battle, she had exhausted all her strength.
When Lin Zhuyue regained consciousness, she first saw the pale ceiling and electric lights. Then, as if realizing something, she turned her head and saw Shi Can lying on the bed next to her. This seemed to be a hospital ward, a double room. It seemed as if someone had fumigated her and Shi Can with mugwort; the room was filled with the smell of burning mugwort.
Shi Can was awake, playing with a glowing edge. The edge was red and extended from the ring finger of Shi Can's left hand and connected to the ring finger of Lin Zhuyue's right hand.
Lin Zhuyue asked: "Are we returning to the Yang Realm?"
"Are you awake?" Shi Can turned his gaze away from the red edge and looked at Lin Zhuyue. "We were sent to the nearest hospital in Fog City by the Underworld. After the hospital contacted Tiancheng, they sent an ambulance to take us back to Linhai City."
Lin Zhuyue blinked, various questions arising in his mind.
Shi Chan was like a worm in his stomach. He started answering before she asked:
"Amagi was saved, and all the evil spirits were dispersed. No one died, but many were hospitalized. Amagi is doing post-war cleanup work, and they will take us back once they're done."
"Oh, yes, this is... love."
Shi Can shook his hands and said proudly,
"It is said that only true destiny can connect people with such a connection. The underworld found me through the destiny between us."
Lin Zhuyue looked at the edge of his hand, looked up at the ceiling, and thought:
The young master is happy again, he is so happy that he is silly. He would be willing to eat spicy hot pot and chicken stewed with mushrooms, right?
Just then, the door of the ward was pushed open.
Lin Zhuyue looked towards the direction where the voice came from and saw Lin Lang with red eyes.
Bowie followed behind, carrying his own bag and his mother's bag, panting, "Mom, don't run so fast. You just sprained your ankle yesterday..."
Lin Zhuyue sat up and called out, "Mom..."
Lin Lang rushed in. She said nothing, but just hugged Lin Zhuyue tightly.
After Bowie entered the ward, he just turned around to close the door when Cui Yi pushed it open again.
Cui Yi came well prepared, carrying large and small bags in her hands, almost all of which were supplements for nourishing yin and yang - Lin Zhuyue and Shi Can were both affected by yin energy, and these supplements would be very useful for their current physical condition.
"Oh, since we've met, let's have a good chat later."
Cui Yi put down the supplements and said to Lin Lang who raised his head,
"Let's talk about the children... If you don't mind, we can also talk about Ling Yan."
Lin Lang was in love with Ling Yan back then, but she didn't know much about Ling Yan. Before she could be told about the spiritual master, Ling Yan died.
Lin Lang said, "Okay."
Cui Yi pulled Lin Lang away and said to Lin Zhuyue and Shi Can before leaving: "I ordered a hospital meal for you. It will be delivered to you later."
Bowie, who was left behind, sat down beside Lin Zhuyue's bed and asked, "Sister, are you really going to spend your life with Huangmao?"
Shi Can couldn't help but say: "...I have power, influence and money, and I've never dyed my hair. It's not yellow."
"It seems we can't do without holding hands." Lin Zhuyue raised her hand, looked at the red line extending from her ring finger, and said, "Let's just make do."
"Lin Zhuyue! What do you mean by 'make do'?"
"Don't be mean to my sister!"
Shi Can said angrily: "How am I mean to your sister?"
Lin Zhuyue turned her head to look at Shi Can and reminded him, "Don't be mean to my sister."
Shi Chan immediately fell silent, but he was very unconvinced and turned over to look at the window.
Bowie said to Lin Zhuyue, "Sister, grandparents noticed that you weren't studying hard at university. They somehow found out you wanted to become a spiritualist. They also knew your father was a spiritualist... and they don't agree."
"Mom had a big fight with them. She said if you want to go to college, you can go to college. If you want to be a spiritualist, you can be a spiritualist. I will never let them control you like they controlled her."
Lin Zhuyue looked at Bowie.
Bowie asked, "So, you're going to stay a spiritualist?"
