The underworld is perpetually shrouded in darkness, yet the moonlight still manages to shine in softly.
A long river shimmered in the moonlight. Lin Wanyue felt something was floating in the water. She looked over carefully and saw a skull face smiling at her.
What's inside isn't river water at all; it's clearly a flowing river made up of the resentment of countless ghosts. Countless vengeful ghosts desperately stretch out their claws, trying to escape, but the ghosts they trample underfoot will mercilessly pull them back, thus perpetuating the cycle of life.
The banks of the river were densely covered with spider lilies of various colors, which were not beautiful, but rather somewhat eerie.
Among the flowers, Lin Wanyue saw a person wearing a straw hat fishing with a serious expression.

Why would anyone fish in a place like this?
Are fishermen really capable of anything, from flying to diving?
"What kind of duck is he fishing for?" Lin Wanyue decided to ask the two brothers, Black and White Impermanence, beside her.
After all, a river filled with resentment doesn't seem like a place where fish could grow.
"Oh." Bai Wuchang smiled. "He's fishing for his Grand Marshal, waiting for those who are willing to take the bait."
"Huh?" Lin Wanyue was even more confused, her beautiful eyes full of questions.
There was still quite a distance to the Yama King's palace, so Bai Wuchang didn't mind saying a few more words.
"That person was an emperor of the human world. His dynasty was destroyed, and he was unwilling to accept it, so he decided to come here to fish. If he could catch enough soldiers, he could take revenge."
"Revenge? Then he can go back to the Silver Chamber, right?" Lin Wanyue asked curiously.
"No, no, no." Bai Wuchang shook his head: "The dynasty that destroyed his dynasty has also been destroyed by others. That emperor is now searching for his empress in the underworld every day."
Lin Wanyue: "..."
Huh?
After listening to a bit of the epic gossip from the underworld, Lin Wanyue finally arrived in front of a huge building.
This was an extremely majestic palace. In Lin Wanyue's eyes, this palace was even taller than the Western Hills. Countless ghosts and gods peeked out from behind the city walls, creating an eerie and sinister atmosphere.
