Chapter 223: Chapter 223 Little Hei_1

A quick sidestep to the right, and you narrowly avoided the threat.

When you turned around, a look of surprise could not help but show on your face, as what appeared before you was a wolf as large as an adult tiger?

Or was it a dog?

"Woof!"

It really was a dog!

Facing its fully bared tusks, you kept retreating backward.

The large dog did not pursue you, merely forcing you back two or three meters before it stopped the chase, but it still stared at you with wide eyes, unwavering in its gaze.

This dog was quite interesting.

Speaking of dogs, you were actually quite fond of them. You had owned one as a child, Little Hei, with fur as black as this large dog’s. However, Little Hei was just an ordinary mutt, not large in size and lacking the attractive appearance of a pet dog, yet it had played the role of both a Guardian and a friend during your childhood.

You looked at it and it looked back at you. Gradually, you noticed its tail, which had been sticking up initially, start to wag increasingly faster!

Suddenly, it lunged at you again!

You hadn’t expected it to attack once more and, caught off guard, you were knocked to the ground with a thud!

Just as you prepared to throw a punch at the large dog’s head, you realized it wasn’t its sharp tusks attacking you, but its tongue!

"Hey, hey, stop licking, that tickles so much!"

The large dog licking you made you roll around on the ground, and it even knew your weak spot, your neck. Whenever your neck was licked, you couldn’t help but burst into laughter.

Hey, wait a minute!

You quickly extended your arms to hug the large dog’s head, squinting at the dog’s head which was as big as a tiger’s. The appearance of the ordinary mutt, an image both familiar and missed, slowly emerged in your view as the mark of the Sen Luo Curse appeared.

"Little Hei!"

You couldn’t believe it, and even thought you had seen wrong. After rubbing your eyes, you realized that the other form of the large dog was indeed Little Hei, who had been dead for many years!

"Woof!"

Little Hei had lunged at you because it recognized you, smelling the unique scent on your body.

At that moment, it wagged its tail non-stop, looking very happy.

You quickly stood up, scanning over Little Hei with the Sen Luo Eye. After the scan, you frowned, because Little Hei was not a dog!

Oh, that’s not right!

It should be said, Little Hei was not an ordinary dog!

You saw Ghost Qi emanating from its body, and it was extremely dense at that!

"Woof, woof-woof!"

Suddenly, Little Hei barked a few times in the direction of the street behind you, and at the same time, a dense mist began to spread from both ends of the street, and you could hear the familiar sound of iron chains coming from within the fog.

Ghost officers?

Turning your head, you saw two ghost officers slowly emerging from the mist.

"Woof!"

Little Hei was actually barking at the ghost officers?

You looked at Little Hei with some surprise, only to see him bark twice before running back into the alley.

"Little Hei, what are you hiding in there for?"

As you approached the entrance of the alley and looked inside, you too were somewhat taken aback. Behind Little Hei was a little girl about seven or eight years old, with two ponytails tied up like sheep’s horns, looking very adorable.

Seeing this little girl, the image of Er Ya from years ago couldn’t help but surface in your mind. However, you knew that this girl was obviously not related to Er Ya and, more importantly, she wasn’t human—she was a ghost!

"Master Li, we meet again." The ghost officer holding a ledger greeted you with a smile and a bow.

You returned the greeting with a smile and said to the ghost officer, "Are you two here to take this young lady away?"

"Exactly," replied the ghost officer with the ledger, glancing at Little Hei who was nearly blocking the entire alley. He sighed and said, " But this Little Hei has made it quite difficult for us brothers."

"Is it really Little Hei?" Upon confirming Little Hei’s identity from the ghost officer, you felt a mix of surprise and confusion.

"What, Master Li, are you acquainted with it?"

"Woof!"

As if understanding your conversation, Little Hei barked at you once, seemingly telling you not to get involved in this matter.

You smiled at Little Hei and gently pressed down on the air, causing Little Hei to sit down as if by reflex.

"Oh? It appears Master Li is its owner, then. That makes this much easier." The ghost officer with the ledger immediately brightened up, seemingly relieved of a big trouble.

"Before that, I would like to ask Brother Ghost to fully inform me about this matter," you requested.

"It is only proper," the ghost officer with the ledger nodded and changed his tone as he spoke, "This young lady’s surname is Lin, called Er Ya. She lives in this alley. Her parents are both ordinary workers, and she grew up under their care. You from the Yang Realm have opened the policy for a second child, haven’t you? Her parents conceived another. But this child, lacking understanding and being pampered, didn’t know how to share. She worried that her parents’ love for her would diminish if they had another brother or sister. So, she made a fuss every day, and it got worse, flirting with the idea of dying. Then, an accident occurred; she rushed out of a box right into a passing car..."

While speaking, the ghost officer with the ledger glanced at the little girl and sighed softly, "In your Yang Realm, this is just seen as a traffic accident; but in our Netherworld, everything is about cause and effect. Er Ya has been added by the judge to the suicide list, so she must serve eighty years in Lonely Hell."

"That long? She’s just a little girl, isn’t that too harsh?"

"There’s no helping it; the Netherworld has its laws. If nothing had gone wrong, her Yang Realm lifespan would have been eighty-seven years. The term for those who commit suicide is determined by their intended lifespan, often multiple times over. The judge has already been lenient with her. Moreover, it’s only Lonely Hell. There, she will merely endure loneliness and pain."

You sighed gently and asked, "What about Little Hei then?"

"We’ve looked into Little Hei’s origins as well; it’s a Dark Mongrel."

"A Dark Mongrel? What’s that?"

The ghost officer with the ledger smiled and said, "Just like humans, dogs have to enter the six realms of reincarnation after death. Of course, some dogs are placed in Evil Mongrel Hell after their deaths, specifically to bite those who abused, killed, or even ate dog meat in life. Little Hei used to be assigned to Evil Mongrel Hell, but after that, nobody knows why, it suddenly disappeared and entered the Dark Ghost Domain."

"The Dark Ghost Domain?"

"That is a very special domain outside the Three Realms, created and ruled by the Emperor of the Dark Ghost Domain and beyond the jurisdiction of the Three Realms."

"So you mean to say, Little Hei mysteriously left the Underworld for the Dark Ghost Domain and then came out of there again?"
