Madam Ke Ning and the others...
Judging from their appearance, they are not utterly wicked people.
How could a soul possibly enter the spirit of a lamp?
If it's just hidden in the underworld, then it's easy to find.
But if it's hidden inside the spirit of the lamp, that would be troublesome.
Seeing Jiang Yuan frown, Riyou's laughter grew louder, echoing around, "Hahaha, hahaha, you lost, you lost!"
The dark aura grew increasingly intense, enveloping Riyou and separating him from Jiang Yuan.
He merely became nourishment for the Ghost King, becoming a part of the Ghost King's body; he did not truly die!
Jiang Yuan lost!
What Yama (the King of Hell) said is not absolute!
She said it can be changed!
We lost! Even the King of Hell lost!
The sound of the sun's journey echoed in Jiang Yuan's ears. Jiang Yuan looked coldly at the black mist in front of her, gathered her power on the Yama's Pen, and then raised her hand and waved it.
The pen, like a broom, swept away the dark mist that enveloped the sun.
Looking at the disappearing black mist and Jiang Yuan standing in front of him, Riyou's smile froze.
The black mist... has disappeared?
No, it shouldn't have disappeared!
Did the Ghost King abandon him? Or...?
"Destroy." Before Riyou could figure it out, Jiang Yuan's cold voice came from above.
Upon hearing the word "one," Riyou felt an almost annihilating force emanating from Jiang Yuan. It wasn't just him; it seemed as if even the surrounding turbid air was being compressed and deformed.
This force pressed down on him, and it hurt him even more than when he was dismissed from his post.
His entire body felt like it was being squeezed into a meat patty, and his head felt like it was about to explode.
How could this be...?
Why is Jiang Yuan's power stronger than before?
"Don't forget, this is the underworld, and I am Yama, the King of Hell." As if she could see what Riyou was thinking, Jiang Yuan's voice drifted into Riyou's ears.
No sooner had she finished speaking than Jiang Yuan heard Riyou's screams.
"Ah—" A scream pierced the sky, and the power emanating from Jiang Yuan caused the surrounding area to tremble.
This is the underworld, and she is Yama, the King of Hell.
The foul air would harm her mortal body, just as...
Her power will also return to what it was before.
Because the underworld officials, ghost messengers, and spirits all revere her and worship her.
In an instant, Riyou's soul was scattered and he disappeared before Jiang Yuan's eyes.
It's as if there's no such thing as a day trip in this world.
Jiang Yuan stared intently at the empty space in front of her, recalling He Zhao's life and the scene when he was appointed as a day-traveler.
He was a poor scholar who failed the imperial examinations three times in the capital. He thought it was because he was incapable and was depressed for a long time.
When the time came, he realized that he had passed all three exams, but someone else had taken his place.
The top scorer title that originally belonged to him became someone else's.
In a fit of anger, he wrote a complaint to the authorities, but to his surprise, the officials protected each other and refused to take the case, making excuses and obstructing it.
Seeing this, He Zhao made up his mind to go to the capital and personally appeal to the emperor.
Those who replaced him as the top scholar all came from powerful and influential families. When they heard that He Zhao wanted to file a lawsuit with the emperor, they tried to trip him up.
Just as He Zhao arrived in the capital, a trap was set for him, and a scheme was devised.
He was falsely accused of raping a woman and attempting murder, and was thrown into prison.
