Hell Emperor

Chapter 384 Xia Wei-takes action

"how so……"

In the messy house, Xiao Yun's face was full of panic and his whole body was shaking. He didn't know where his mother had gone, but the situation inside clearly showed that it had been ransacked by thieves.

He took a deep breath and tried to calm down his uneasy heart. After thinking about it, he soon came up with an idea: "Fortunately, I left a ghost order with my mother in advance and asked her to keep it at all times. As expected, she I will also take Zi Ling with me..."

After finding the Ghost Order on a high mountain not far from home, Xiao Yun did not dare to hesitate and quickly took out the Shukuchi Stone and set off for it.

The space changed, and when everything around him gradually solidified, the scene ahead made Xiao Yun shocked and angry.

On the edge of the cliff, his old mother was tied up with a dark rope with a bruise on her face. The other end of the rope was held in the hands of an erratic ghost.

"Give me all your strength and longevity! Or do you want to suffer more? Do you believe I will throw you out of here?"

The ghost screamed and threatened, and the old mother was shaking all over, but she refused to cooperate and refused to hand over the Yang Shou no matter what.

"stop!"

Xiao Yun immediately yelled angrily, raised his hand, and a soul-breaking arrow shot out, attacking the ghost in the distance.

The ghost shadow let out a slight sigh, with a hint of contempt in his tone. With a little movement, he completely neutralized the approaching soul-breaking arrow.

Xiao Yun's expression changed slightly and he asked: "Who are you? How dare you steal my mother's life!"

"Scary ghost? Open your eyes and see clearly. I am Zheng Xuan, the ghost messenger of Jinlun Palace. I am not a lonely wild ghost like you!" Ghost Shadow snorted coldly and took out a dark token with the sign on it. Engraved with a rotating character.

The style of the token was so familiar to Xiao Yun. He subconsciously reached into his arms and took out a token that was 90% similar to it. The only difference was that the token in Xiao Yun's hand was engraved with " is a cloud word.

Seeing Xiao Yun also taking out the ghost messenger order, Zheng Xuan was stunned and looked at him for the first time: "So you are also a ghost messenger in the palace. What a coincidence. No wonder this old woman has so many yangshou. The feelings are all given by you.”

At this time, the old mother coughed hard, and blood overflowed from the corner of her mouth. In order to keep her body alive, she had to suffer a lot. This situation made Xiao Yun heartbroken, and his eyes looking at Zheng Xuan were filled with anger, but he There is still some doubt in my heart:

"How do you know that my mother has hundreds of years of longevity? Given her age, she doesn't look like someone with that much longevity, right? You should go find those children. Why are you doing this to my mother? Take action?"

Zheng Xuan said disdainfully: "Shouqi told me. I asked Shouqi to reveal the longest-lived person in this area, and it guided me to your mother."

Xiao Yun felt horrified in his heart. While he continued to extend his mother's life, he also put her in danger and was eventually targeted by thieves. Now he was not the only ghost who could rob children of their life. When he wantonly robbed children of their life, , but never thought that one day, his mother would become the target of robbery by others: "Shouqi actually has such ability?"

"Didn't you use the Yangshou sacrifice flag? If you use enough Yangshou to sacrifice the flag, the power of the longevity flag will be stronger. With about two thousand years of Yangshou sacrifice flag, you can accurately find out the longest-lived person in an area." Zheng Xuan answer.

Xiao Yun was shocked to find that there was such a secret in the longevity flag. He had always felt that using Yang Shou to sacrifice the flag was just a waste, so he only performed the minimum flag sacrifice, so that the longevity flag in his hand changed except for the appearance. , and does not add any substantial power.

"Since they are all ghosts of Jinlun Palace, please let my mother go quickly!" Seeing his mother's face depressed and filled with sadness, Xiao Yun felt anxious and spoke quickly.

At this moment, Zheng Xuan did not agree: "No."

"What exactly are you planning to do?" Xiao Yun was furious and stamped his feet hard.

"You should have a lot of Yangshou in your longevity flag, right? Give me the longevity flag and I will let her go. Otherwise, you know the consequences." Zheng Xuan threatened.

Xiao Yun's heart trembled. It was not that he was reluctant to part with Yang Shou in the longevity flag. If he could exchange the longevity flag for his mother's safety, why not give it to him? However, a worse premonition flashed through Xiao Yun's heart:

"What if I give you the birthday flag but you still don't let my mother go?"

"You have no choice. If you don't hand it over, I will throw her off the cliff!"

With that said, Zheng Xuan pulled the soul-binding rope hard, and the old mother immediately fell to the ground, moaning in pain.

Xiao Yun was completely panicked and had no choice but to take out the longevity flag: "I will give you the longevity flag. The longevity flag contains a thousand years of Yangshou, which is enough to satisfy you!"

After learning that Xiao Yun's longevity flag actually contained a thousand years of Yangshou, Zheng Xuan's eyes also lit up. He caught the longevity flag thrown by Xiao Yun, stopped pretending, and said solemnly:

"The master of the palace does not allow ordinary ghosts to interfere in the Yangshou trade. He only allows people to trade on their own, or let the longevity service ghosts do it. Using longevity flags to snatch Yangshou like us has violated the precepts of the Jinlun Palace and will be punished. The punishment will be severe. From the moment you find me, I will never let you go!"

Zheng Xuan's eyes darkened, with lingering murderous intent concentrated in his eyes, as if in his eyes, Xiao Yun, mother and son were already two dead people.

Xiao Yun also felt the fierce murderous intention, and his whole body was chilled. He had just become a ghost. Zheng Xuan's realm was much higher than him. The suppression of the realm alone was enough to make people lose their fighting spirit, but he He couldn't retreat, but his mother was still captured by Zheng Xuan. He had to rescue her!

"Taste the power of the soul-breaking arrow!"

Xiao Yun shouted angrily, held one hand with one hand, condensed a dark sharp arrow in his palm, and shot towards Zheng Xuan!

"You dare to show off a soul-breaking arrow that is just an entry-level one? To tell you the truth, because of my merits in catching beast-shaped ghosts, the soul-breaking arrows on my body have been promoted to the minor level by the palace master. It is not something you can compare with. !”

Zheng Xuan's face was full of disdain. The soul-breaking arrow he condensed was larger and more solid than Xiao Yun's, and its power was completely different.

The big arrow shot through the small arrow, without even a trace of obstruction, and went straight towards Xiao Yun.

Xiao Yun was horrified. The big arrow contained terrifying power that could shatter the soul. If he was shot, his soul would be scattered, and there would be no other possibility!

Xiao Yun dodged to avoid it, and the soul-shattering arrow narrowly missed his body. He could almost feel the terrifying power contained in the arrow, and at the next moment, a rope wrapped around him like a gangrene attached to the bone, wiping his body. His body was completely frozen, making him unable to move.

Binding Xiao Yun with a soul-binding rope, Zheng Xuan laughed triumphantly: "With your strength, you dare to fight with me? These Yangshou are all mine now, so you can just scatter away..."

Before Zheng Xuan finished speaking, two purple lights suddenly flashed in the sky.

Purple light falls from the sky, like a sharp sword wielded by a god. The blazing light contains the divine power to cut all things. Anything that blocks it will be split into two under the magic light!

Facing the mighty force that suppressed everything, Zheng Xuan's soul came out. The only thing that remained in his eyes was the girl riding a dragon at the end of the zenith.

With a flash of magic light, Zheng Xuan's soul was completely shattered and disappeared.

Xiao Yun knelt on the ground, feeling grateful to have survived the disaster in his heart. Could it be that God opened his eyes and allowed an immortal to save their mother and son? Just when he was wondering, a black shadow fell from the sky and hit the ground heavily, making a dull sound and splashing dust all over the sky.

When the dust cleared, a girl with eyes like fire and eyebrows like daggers appeared here. There was still a lingering purple meaning hidden deep in her eyes. Obviously, the magic light just came from her hand.

"It seems that this evil spirit is the murderer who killed the children in the village." Xia Wei asserted when she came here.

The dragon descended from the sky, and Li Feimo also jumped down and said thankfully: "Fortunately, we arrived in time. If we had arrived a step later, I'm afraid a few more innocent people would have been poisoned by that evil spirit..."

Xia Wei glanced at Xiao Yun and her son who were attacked, and frowned: "But, why did the evil ghost attack the children in the village? Could it be that he suffered injustice in life and turned into a ghost to take revenge after death?"

Li Feimo stepped forward quickly and picked up a ghost order and two golden flags from where Zheng Xuan's soul was scattered: "Huh? This is... a ghost order? The evil ghost just now turned out to be a What a ghost?"

Xia Wei was confused and looked at Xiao Yun: "Hey, why did the evil ghost attack you just now?"

When asked by Xia Wei, Xiao Yun also reacted and quickly replied: "Qi Immortal, the ghost attacked us just to rob the Yangshou. He attacked the children in the village before, also to rob the children of the Yangshou!"

"What?" Xia Wei was stunned when she heard this, "Robbing Yangshou? Life is determined by God, how can it be snatched away by others?"

The latest chapter of this novel was first published on 6@9书#. Please go to Liujiu Book Bar to read it!

Xiao Yun explained: "Life is determined by heaven. That was all in the past. Now that heaven's merit has been attributed to humans, people are the masters of their own lives and have the right to dispose of their longevity and even trade their longevity."

Xia Wei's eyes trembled and she said in disbelief: "This...how is this possible?"

Xiao Yun just said: "The golden longevity flag is the proof of Yang Shou transaction. If you don't believe me, you can check it. There are many years of Yang Shou in it."

Li Feimo checked and found out that the matter was indeed as Xiao Yun said: "What he said is true. One of these two longevity flags contains four hundred years of life, and the other is empty... I can even use these flags." The Yangshou inside is added to one’s body, extending one’s life by four hundred years!”

Holding the longevity flag, Li Feimo seemed to have discovered some novel toy. He looked left and right and couldn't help but want to add Yangshou to himself.

But Xia Wei stopped her: "Don't touch the Yang Shou inside. If all this is true, the Yang Shou in the Shou Banner were stolen from those innocent children. How can they be used indiscriminately?"

Hearing this, Li Feimo also realized the seriousness of the problem, and even Qizhong's four-hundred-year-old Yangshou suddenly felt unsatisfactory.

Xia Wei asked Xiao Yun: "Is the ghost robbing Yang Shou an exception or a common behavior?"

Xiao Yun was silent for a while before replying: "Not only are ghosts robbing, but people themselves are robbing as well. I heard that in Goguryeo, the king there asked everyone to give up to sixty years of life, and tens of thousands of people died every day. The human souls returned to the underworld, and the world was already in chaos."

"How could it be..." Xia Wei's teeth chattered and she couldn't believe what she heard, "How could the world become like this? I knew that if people could suddenly see their own life, nothing good would happen... No, I want to Tell Master to help the people here!"

Xiao Yun was stunned: "Who is your master?"

Xia Wei replied: "His name is Ye Jie, and he is the master of Jinlun Palace, one of the ten palaces of Yama."

"Ye...Hall Master Ye?" Xiao Yun opened his mouth wide. He never expected that the girl in front of him was actually the disciple of Hall Master Ye. "Don't you know that everything related to the Yangshou trade was promoted by Hall Master Ye?"

"What..." Xia Wei's pupils shrank and she was completely stunned on the spot, only to feel something shattering beside her ears!

After bidding farewell to those unfathomable practitioners, Xiao Yun hurried to his mother's side, ready to take her home to recuperate.

Thinking of the girl's eyes and fury at the end, Xiao Yun was frightened. Fortunately, Zheng Xuan appeared and took the blame for him, so he was able to escape. Otherwise, if that person knew that those children were not killed by Zheng Xuan, but by Xiao Yun, he would not be able to escape.

"Fortunately, I was one step ahead. I knew that even if Zheng Xuan took away his life span, he would not let us go. So when I threw out the life span flag, I added all the life span on the flag to my mother in advance. Although the life span flag has been taken away, with these life spans, my mother can live for at least a thousand years..."

Xiao Yun was about to support his mother, but his arm was thrown away by her. He looked at her blankly, but saw that his mother was looking at him with a complicated face. There was both regret and shame in her eyes:

"Yun'er, tell me honestly, where did those life spans come from?"

Xiao Yun opened his mouth, not knowing how to answer. He wanted to find a reason, but under the mother's eyes that were clear and full of tears, he finally put away his lie and bowed his head and said: "I got it from others."

The mother was ashamed , beating her chest and stamping her feet: "So... you did all those children who disappeared in the village?"

Xiao Yun panicked, as if he had done something wrong and was discovered, and hurriedly explained: "Mother, I did all this to extend your life. Now you have a thousand years of life, you can live ten lives of ordinary people, and you don't have to worry about the end of your life!"

The old mother shed tears of disappointment and murmured: "How can you hurt so many innocent people just to extend my life? What the ghost messenger did to me, I think you did to others when you were trying to steal your life. This thousand years of life is full of other people's blood and tears. I don't know how many innocent people suffered because of it..."

As she said, the old mother retreated and came to the edge of the cliff in a blink of an eye. The cold wind kept blowing her robe, and it rustled in the wind.

Xiao Yun panicked: "Mother, please come back soon, it's very dangerous over there!"

"It's all my fault. I taught you to be like this. I feel sorry for those who died. This is all retribution..."

The old mother pursed her lips tightly and shook her head. Her eyes were full of guilt and loss when she looked at him. Finally, she resolutely jumped out and disappeared into the clouds under the cliff.
