Chapter 185: Chapter 156 Connected!

In the imperial night sky.

Several shadows suddenly plunged from the depths of the sky.

They broke through the barriers of the parallel worlds and directly landed on a high mountain, surveying their surroundings.

There were six of them in total.

They scanned the environment, and after a while, they finally confirmed their location.

"Gjestastav, I need to say it again, that Dragon Egg was pushed to the mouth of the cave by that spirit, and then it was killed by my Power."

A burly man with a black eye patch buzzed.

Next to him, a stern beauty in a hip-wrapped skirt said:

"I know, Astalot. There’s no need to repeat yourself."

Not far away.

The handsome young man with golden curls said, "This is... parallel world number 1666."

"Parallel world number 5432 has been destroyed, yet we still haven’t found that soul who has awakened the Power of Death... He must be in this world," whispered the beautiful girl in a black silk maid’s outfit.

When the curly-haired young man looked at her, she quietly stuck out her pink tongue and gently licked her lips with the tip.

The young man hurriedly turned away and bowed his head.

The girl silently chuckled.

But among this group, there were two people who did not speak.

The tall young man holding a toy was just silently observing the surroundings, not saying a word from the beginning to the end.

But the remaining person finally spoke up:

"Two reminders."

The others perked up and looked at him in unison.

The man appeared to be in his forties, with a beard, black-rimmed glasses, a portly beer belly, wearing jeans and an oversized dark green T-shirt.

"First: My Magic is fragile, don’t alarm your counterparts from the parallel worlds, otherwise you’ll immediately trigger the parallel universe fusion mechanism, and both of you will have to duel, with only one survivor;"

"Second: Don’t startle the snake in the grass—"

"Let the soul who has awakened the Power of Death think he is safe, until we find him;"

"Now go, take action!"

As his voice faded, everyone disappeared.

Elsewhere.

The palace.

Zhao Junyu, Xiao Baihong, and Li Kunlun walked into the grand council hall.

The Emperor was not there at the moment, only Zhao Zhibing stood before the coffee table, meticulously drawing talismans with a pen.

"Sister, they’re back," Zhao Junyu said.

"We have something urgent to tell you," Li Kunlun said.

"It’s very important," Xiao Baihong added.

Zhao Zhibing put down her pen, ready to speak, when suddenly her brow furrowed.

She abruptly made a gesture with her hand for everyone to be silent and then raised her head to look in a certain direction.

The others, not understanding her intent, looked at each other in puzzled silence.

"This is bad, something has come to our world... They are too powerful, no one can match them," Zhao Zhibing whispered.

"What should we do?" Zhao Junyu asked anxiously, "Should I go report to Father Emperor?"

"Father Emperor has been working for several days and just now rested. Let him sleep a bit longer—quickly, what information do you have?" Zhao Zhibing said.

"It seems that things from a parallel world have begun to leak into ours," Li Kunlun said.

"What things?" Zhao Zhibing asked.

"So far, just some ruins and rocks and trees, no monsters," Xiao Baihong replied.

"It won’t be long then... Strange, why hasn’t Little Wu returned?" Zhao Zhibing said.

"What happened to him?" Xiao Baihong asked.

"He’s still trying to heal my wounds; now that I’m recovered, he must come back immediately. There’s no need for him to stay in other worlds looking for a cure—that’s too dangerous!" Zhao Zhibing said.

"So, what do you need?" Li Kunlun asked.

Realizing her needs, Zhao Zhibing spoke up, "If only there was something that could contact him."

As she finished speaking.

Everyone looked at Li Kunlun.

Li Kunlun fished in his pocket and suddenly pulled out a handful of joss paper.

"Why joss paper!" Zhao Junyu blurted out.

Joss paper is burnt for the dead.

If they needed to use joss paper—

Did that not imply that Wu Xiaode had already died?

Zhao Zhibing’s face paled, her eyes dimmed significantly.

"Don’t overthink it. I just activated ’The Dual Aspects of Reality and Illusion,’ and the object I fetched is one that can ’make contact with Little Wu’," Li Kunlun said.

"So these joss papers can definitely communicate with him?" Xiao Baihong asked.

"Yes, we can communicate with him through this joss paper, but it doesn’t mean he’s dead," Li Kunlun replied.

Zhao Zhibing regained some composure, took the joss paper from Li Kunlun’s hand, and asked, "How do I use it?"

"Burn it, and while burning, talk to him," Li Kunlun instructed.

"Sounds like what people do when burning joss paper... This makes it seem like he’s still dead," Xiao Baihong noted.

Zhao Zhibing glared at him, took the joss paper, pulled out a sheet, and lit it.

"Little Wu..."

She began speaking cautiously: "My wound is no longer of concern, return immediately, and don’t risk anything else."

"Come back to me alive, now!"

Whoosh!

The joss paper burned fiercely, turning to ash, vanishing completely.

...

The Death Realm.

The battle had been raging for half an hour.

The Ghost Tree Man pulled out a wooden staff, waving it repeatedly, unleashing spell after spell, confronting the Demon before him.

Neither could overcome the other, both panting with exhaustion.

"Won’t you die?"

The Demon struggled to release one last Flame Magic.

But a cone-shaped flame shot towards the Ghost Tree Man.

"Don’t even think about it!"

The Ghost Tree Man roared, and his wooden staff released an ice ball, colliding with the cone-shaped flame.

Boom!

The sound of an explosion rang out.

The Ghost Tree Man was gasping for breath, feeling as if he had drained all his Soul Power.

——What’s the point of fighting anymore.

Those two guys stubbornly refused to make a move.

I’ve reached my limit too.

Run!

He turned to run, but suddenly a scream sounded from behind him.

"No! You actually had an ambush!"

The Demon roared.

The Ghost Tree Man turned his head to look.

He saw the skeleton fighting the Demon.

Its scimitar relentlessly struck the Demon, who tried to defend itself, but due to the prolonged fight and exhaustion, it failed to dodge several times.

The young spirit of the deceased also reappeared.

He swooped in, asking with concern, "Are you alright?"

The Ghost Tree Man, heaving for breath, replied, "I’m fine."

The young spirit patted his shoulder and said with rightful indignation, "Don’t be afraid, leave this kind of situation to us!"

The Ghost Tree Man opened his mouth, suppressing the urge to say anything.

I’ve been fighting for half an hour, exhausted all my Soul Power, and now you pop up and tell me not to be afraid?

The young man dashed forward, suddenly jumping onto the Demon’s shoulder, and forcefully broke off its horns with both hands.

——Most of the Demon’s Magic required its horns to gather and cast, and with the horns broken, it was basically powerless.

Another sharp scimitar stabbed into the Demon’s back and protruded from its chest.

It was the skeleton!

Thud——

The Demon fell to the ground, struggled for a few times, and then stopped moving.

"Hahaha, no matter how infinite your Magic is, it can’t withstand our brothers’ tacit strike!"

Rotten Bone stood on the Demon’s head, triumphantly waving his scimitar.

Wu Xiaode nodded towards the Ghost Tree Man and said, "You coordinated well too."

The Ghost Tree Man was still catching his breath.

Coordinated?

What coordination! You guys hid, and if I didn’t act, I would have just waited to die?

"Where, where, thank you guys for finally showing up and killing it with an ambush; otherwise, I would’ve been done for."

The Ghost Tree Man said with an ironic tone.

"Hahaha, good to know. My brother and I are brave and victorious warriors; stay with us, and you’ll be fine, understand?"

Rotten Bone patted his shoulder.

"That—Have you always fought like this?" the Ghost Tree Man asked.

"Of course, this is tactics, understand? With these tactics, we always come out unscathed, undefeated!" Rotten Bone explained.

The Ghost Tree Man fell silent for a moment.

It all became clear now.

What strong ability did these two have?

They completed their tasks relying on this despicable, shameless, vile, filthy, bottomless, and utterly cowardly tactic.

——I even made a special trip here.

Such a waste of time.

"Ah, meeting is destiny, but I think it’s time to leave and do business elsewhere now, see you around," the Ghost Tree Man said.

"Are you leaving just like that?" Wu Xiaode asked.

"Is there anything else?" the Ghost Tree Man asked, bewildered.

"Of course, why don’t you join us? We could use an expert like you to lead the way," Wu Xiaode sincerely invited.

Thanks a lot!

"No, thanks," the Ghost Tree Man replied with a stiff smile on his face, "I better go do my business. If fate allows, we’ll meet again."

He grabbed the bag and turned to leave, soon disappearing without a trace.

"He left in such a hurry; why does it feel like he’s running for his life..."

The skeleton crossed his arms and murmured in wonder.

"Yeah, maybe he’s not quite cut out for battles of this intensity," Wu Xiaode said as well.

Suddenly.

The Void stirred.

A yellow banknote fell in front of Wu Xiaode.

"Wow, buddy, you must have been well off before you died, someone’s still burning paper money for you," Rotten Bone said enviously.

Burning paper money...

I’m not dead, who would be burning paper money for me? Isn’t that like jinxing me?

Wu Xiaode picked up the paper money.

A woman’s voice suddenly echoed in his mind:

"Little Wu..."

"My injuries are no longer serious; you need to come back quickly, don’t take any more risks."

"Come back to me alive, right now!"

It was the voice of Zhao Zhibing.

She always had some strange abilities, so it wasn’t unusual that she could contact him this way.

This was indeed good news.

"Death God" had died, and her wounds had healed.

So, today’s commission could be used in the Holy City to help the old woman with the title look for her son.

But how to get there?

Wu Xiaode fell into deep thought.
