Black Impermanence hesitated, as if he wanted to speak but then stopped.
White Impermanence seemed to think that Black Impermanence's words were inappropriate. After hesitating for a few seconds, he chose to add: "My lord, the formation you set up was supposed to gradually weaken those two ghosts until their souls were scattered. But I don't know who changed your formation. Not only did the two ghosts not weaken, but they also transformed from fierce ghosts into evil ghosts. They are not afraid of gods or ghosts in that haunted house."
Wan Jiao: "..."
She seemed to know how those two thousand-year-old evil spirits came to be.
Yes, she had seen them in the illusion and in Jing Mo's memories; they were undoubtedly the two that had searched for countless demons for her!
So... it was her fault?
What does it mean that the formation was simply altered?
She was the ruler of the underworld at the time; who could alter the formations she set up?
"Is there any way to deal with this?" Wan Jiao asked the Black and White Impermanence.
They looked at each other, hesitated for a long time, and then slowly said, "No. Lord Li Wen had already sent several groups of ghost messengers to deal with it, but they all went and never returned. Later, he even went there himself, but... but when he came back, he was seriously injured."
As 'Runling', she certainly knows very well who Li Wen is.
As for Wan Jiao, she has no memory of it.
However... it doesn't really affect anything.
After all, the fact that Li Wen was the head of the Seven Kings of Hell in the Underworld is recorded in storybooks and folk tales.
(Note: This book sets the underworld as a separate realm, with the King of the Underworld as its master, and the Seven Kings of Hell each having their own duties. Li Wen is the head of the Seven Kings of Hell.)
Li Wen, as the strongest being in the Underworld second only to the King of the Underworld, and wielding the 'Ghost-Cleansing Whip,' should have been feared by all evil spirits and vengeful ghosts. How could he...?
Wan Jiao lowered her eyes, lost in thought for a long time, before asking again, "Are we really going to let those two evil spirits continue to develop?"
Both Black and White Impermanence sighed and replied, "My lord, if you could return to the Underworld, perhaps..."
Wan Jiao knew exactly what they were going to say.
But even putting aside her pregnancy, she couldn't leave without repaying the kindness of her master and Nanshan Temple in raising her.
The cycle of cause and effect dictates that even if she is the Queen of the Underworld, she will still have to pay the price for going against the will of Heaven.
Moreover, she was carrying a child born with good intentions.
In the future, he will surely make contributions to the people.
Therefore, even though she knew the chances of defeating those two evil spirits were slim, she was determined to give it her all.
"I can't go back for now." Wan Jiao's words were firm and powerful. "I want to see if we can really do anything to them."
Wan Jiao's meaning couldn't be clearer!
She was determined to use her mortal body to fight those two thousand-year-old evil spirits.
Black Impermanence's expression changed drastically, "My lord, you mustn't!"
The White Impermanence's expression was not much better. "My lord, you are now pregnant. Even if you try your best, you will definitely not be a match for them."
"Isn't that perfect? I can die inside and then return to the underworld," Wan Jiao said calmly.
Black and White Impermanence: "..."
Although something feels off, it seems to make sense...
"My lord, if you die at their hands, it will surely be very painful for you. It would be better to die sooner rather than later..."
Wan Jiao raised her hand to interrupt Hei Wuchang before he could finish speaking, "My mind is made up. Make the arrangements. If anything happens to me, you must protect everyone in the production team."
Wan Jiao's words sounded like she was making her final arrangements.
The Black and White Impermanence exchanged glances for a few seconds, then bowed respectfully, saying, "Yes, sir!"
…
When the car arrived at its destination, Wan Jiao woke up.
After getting out of the car, the group stood directly in front of the haunted house, and their teeth started chattering.
Yeah, it's freezing.
"This place is so scary. I can feel the thick, cold air rushing towards me. I'm so cold." Hua Ya's face scrunched up, and she was on the verge of crying.
This side of her is the complete opposite of her usual self.
To be honest, I felt an indescribable chill even through the screen.
[Ugh, whose idea was this? Why go to a haunted house? Look how scared the goddess is, she can't even control her expression!]
[I'm a local from Mingcheng, and to be honest, I think the entire Running Man production team is courting disaster.]
[Upstairs, did you eat shit? Your mouth stinks! If you can't speak properly, then don't speak at all.]
【You think I'm exaggerating? Let me tell you, it's not. I live nearby. A few years ago, the Xuanmen Association's Chairman Lan and a very powerful and respected old man led a large group of over a hundred people to the haunted house. Of the more than a hundred people who went in, only five or six came out, and they were all seriously injured.】
This comment caused an uproar across the entire internet!
It's common knowledge what kind of person Chairman Lan of the Xuanmen Society is.
So many people went, but only five or six came out, and they were all injured. Isn't it clear what that means?
Immediately, all netizens felt a chill run down their spines!
[Oh no, oh no, oh no! My goddess is inside, will she never come out again?]
[Can anyone stop them? Why would they go to such a dangerous place? The sisters don't know anything about this!]
Where is the leadership of Mingcheng? Aren't they going to do something about this? So many people have gotten into trouble in your territory, and you think you can just walk away unscathed?
[...]
Let's look at both sides of the story!
The relevant departments in Mingcheng are holding an emergency meeting to discuss the Running Man program crew's plan to enter the haunted house.
Some believe this is a great opportunity; if the legendary Half-Immortal Wan really does solve the problem, Mingcheng's tourism industry will surely boom like never before.
Some people believe that when Chairman Lan and Elder Cui from the Special Security Bureau led so many experts from the metaphysical world in, they all met with bad ends. Now, with Wan Jiao alone, is it possible for her to succeed? It's best not to let them in. Otherwise, if so many famous people die in Ming City, their fans could bury the city alive. What else is there to talk about then?
Some people also believe...
Some even believe...
In short, various opinions are arguing and no decision has been reached for a long time.
Just as the conference room was filled with a cacophony of noise, the door was pushed open from the outside. Everyone fell silent and turned to look.
They entered, led by Elder Cui and Chairman Lan, with Amber and Director Xiao of the Mingcheng Special Security Bureau bringing up the rear.
"There's no point in arguing, they're already inside, it's too late to fight!" The speaker was Chairman Lan, who was the publicly acknowledged 'number one' in the metaphysical world. In reality, Elder Cui's strength was on par with his, but because of Elder Cui's special status and the 'burden' he bore for the entire Special Security Bureau, he couldn't stand in the sunlight and be noticed by the world.
After he finished speaking, he looked at the head of the Mingcheng Police Department and said, "Gather manpower and evacuate the people within a hundred miles of the haunted house in a timely manner."
The need to evacuate people from a radius of hundreds of miles is a very serious matter, as one can imagine.
The top leader dared not delay, immediately agreed, and hurriedly left!
