1478 Origin is a mystery
will repay the trouble—""No need." I waved my hand.I don't like the way he makes money, and I don't intend to take his money.I was waiting for my brother at the entrance of our apartment building, bu...While it's called a funeral home, the displays here are somewhat jarring.
My brother was the first to notice something was wrong—he's a doctor, and in this dark corner, there were some cold, rusty instruments discarded around. It felt more like a dissection room next to a morgue.
"What in the world is this place" My brother, wearing gloves, touched the old, cold vessels and frowned. "A funeral home only holds one person And where's the condition for preserving a corpse It feels more like a robbed grave to me."
Our Mu family ancestors did study tomb robbing, but we weren't very professional when it came to corpses. With expert Zheng here, I took a look at Bai Wu Chang and motioned for him to let Expert Zheng return the soul to its rightful place so he could explain things.
Bai Wu Chang was quite straightforward, immediately retracting the chain. Zheng Zhe and Chen Ru trembled, their eyes gradually regaining clarity.
"Ah...ahhh!" Zheng Zhuanjia looked at himself, back in this place again. He screamed "Ahhh!" out of fright and was covered by my brother's hand.
"Shut up, just tell me what's going on here!"
"This, this, this, this is the situation we can't possibly change!" Zheng Zhexue spoke with his words a little jumbled: "This, this, this has all become corpses! How could they possibly come back to life!"
“Reanimation isn’t about bringing people back to life! Those demons will haunt me forever!! ” Zheng turned and rushed out the small door!
"Hey hey, don't let him run around!" My brother hurried to pull him back.
The door here was extremely narrow and short. Zheng, the expert, had also put on some weight, so when he squeezed out, there was no way to reach back and grab him.
My brother also squeezed out, and I followed closely behind.
It's just a matter of twenty seconds or so, and the world outside seems completely different from what we entered before.
A solemn silence hung in the air, the gloomy mist parting to reveal moonlight shining like snow.
Before the Zheng expert could even step off the stage, he was suddenly and silently thrown to the ground at the door. My brother raised his hand to shield his eyes, adjusting to the sudden burst of cold white light.
"Brother, brother! What's wrong!" I rushed out, grabbed my brother's arm, and pulled him aside.
Waves of tremors coursed through my body, goosebumps erupted on my skin, and my scalp tingled.
--- Yin Su Bai stood silently in front of the funeral home, he had come.
The mantis stalks the cicada, unaware of the hawk behind it. He seems to have been waiting for us to enter here before slowly making his appearance.
Jiang Qiyun appeared beside me almost simultaneously, pulling me behind him and using his own body to shield me from Yin Su Bai's silent and cold aura.
Bai Wu Chang's insignificant, nearly invisible body bent slightly. He was wearing a tall hat and tilted his head as he smiled. "Great Demon Lord~~~~ It’s been hundreds of years since I last saw you in the mortal realm~~~~"
Yin Su Bai didn't react at all. He still wore his understated yet eye-catching attire, looking like a wealthy young master from the late Qing Dynasty or early Republic of China.
Although bathed in brilliance, he carried an indescribable depth and a veil of mist that obscured his face and made his emotions unreadable.
Jiang Qiyun slightly frowned and whispered, “Yin Su Bai, what are you doing in the human world Your demonic aura is so strong, as the Northern Demon Lord, your energy field is unstable yet you walk amongst mortals... The human world has enjoyed peace for a long time. Although desires have become more chaotic, there hasn’t been large-scale war or bloodshed, which does you no good in cultivation. Why would you abandon your position and risk contaminating yourself with earthly dust”
This is quite mind-blowing.
The demon realm in my mind is like a world ending with a volcanic eruption. Thick smoke billows, the earth cracks with molten lava, nothing grows, and killing runs rampant... In short, it's a very dangerous place.
Originally, in the eyes of the divine beings, a demon lord coming to the mortal realm was still considered "tainted by dust"
Yin Su Bai was silent as a mute, he could speak if he wanted to, but he chose not to. His fingers twitched imperceptibly. The corpse-watcher standing by the doorway suddenly collapsed to the ground!
< >
The corpse watcher's nape, the strange monster on its back sprouted crimson lines, its bean-sized eyes burned like flames. It suddenly raised its head from behind the corpse watcher's back, drawing out a slender beak with a long needle attached to it.
Everything happened in the blink of an eye.
"Watch out!" My brother reacted first. His voice reached my ears as I saw the strange monster spread its wings and take flight.
That speed was so fast, it only took a blink of an eye! The monster beast suddenly flew towards Zheng Zhuanjia!
This demonic beast seems to be a low-level minion, able to control the minds and bodies of living people. Yin Su Bai didn't believe that Zheng Zhuanjia was truly helpless, wanting to control him for his own use.
The middle three fingers are bent, and the thumb grips firmly to make sure it doesn't see the nail.
In a moment of panic, my execution of the Demonic Thunder Technique was rather messy. However, low-level demons are especially afraid of thunder magic. My strike went awry, and as the beast dodged sideways, it suddenly flew towards me!
And this monster was quite cunning, not daring to approach Jiang Qiyun's aura at all. It suddenly swerved from the side before charging over.
I thought this monster was going to charge at my face, but I didn't expect it to be a decoy. Its target is behind me —
Chen Ru!
We all came out, Chen Ruo definitely wouldn't dare to stay alone inside. She was sneaking out sideways, crouching low, when she suddenly looked up and saw this strange monster pounce at her!
Jiang Qiyun rarely meddled in other people's affairs, let alone now facing Yin Sukbai. I subconsciously clenched the Lei Jue again, ready to cast a spell!
With a light *thunk*, Bai Wu Chang's chains stopped just before Chen Ru, the monster suddenly braking and cowering. I seized the opportunity to strike another Yajue, pushing it back.
"At such a young age, Lei Jue acts so freely and whimsically..." Yin Su Bai suddenly spoke up, as if addressing me.
I didn't dare to speak up. Such a big shot definitely wouldn't be talking to me directly. If I responded rashly, it would seem out of place.
Jiang Qiyun's voice was icy cold: "Mu Xiaqiao's thunder magic has my guidance, naturally different from ordinary people... As for you, as the Northern Divine God of the Demon Realm, you have repeatedly attacked my disciple. This is too presumptuous."
Yin Su Bai's jaw moved slightly, lifting slightly, and said in a cold voice: "Concubine Still without an immortal decree, she is still just an ordinary person, an ant among mortals... I spared her life, it was already mercy."
"Mercy" Jiang Qiyun sneered. "If you dare touch her, the spatial array of the Underworld will crack directly above your Xuan Gui Shan Shen Shui Feng!"
Mysterious Tortoise Mountain Divine Water Peak
This place name sounds very mysterious, like something from Daoist philosophy. Could it be the temple or palace of the Northern Black Emperor, the great demon king of the demonic realm
Originally, Jiang Qiyun was planning to barge into someone else's house and kidnap them in the underworld. Thankfully, Yin Su Bai only "grounded" me. Otherwise, a real war would have erupted between the Underworld deities and the Demon King, and I would be the one responsible.
Jiang Qiyun is a primordial divine being, inherently possessing a cool and aloof pride. However, he adheres to his divine status and would not easily act to harm the underworld. Facing Yin Su Bai, he also shows restraint.
Yin Su Bai seemed to deliberately avoid Jiang Qi Yun's edge. He bound his own magic power, sacrificing numerous cannon fodder from the demon realm rift, and immediately concealed his figure to avoid a direct confrontation.
They both seem pretty restrained, don't they
Bai Wuchang didn't know when he floated behind me, leaning down and whispering with a sly smile: "Hee hee hee~~~ If these two really fight, how could our Qingxuan Zuqi Yuanhuang Great Dao Lord just sit idly by~~~~ At that time, we will summon both honorable gods to go to Yuqing Realm. That's not something that can be resolved in a day or two~~~~"
Well, I see.
Even two highly esteemed deities ruling over their respective territories would be afraid of being held accountable and confined by the supreme leader in the heavens, wouldn't theyrmonious~~hehe, this time I really heard some gossip..."As he spoke, he glanced at my grandmother and the child. I got up and escorted them back to the east wing room. When I returned to the room, my...
