Chapter 421: Chapter 421 Noise_1

"Hmph, hmph, hmph..." Changsun Wuji laughed heartily, lifting his head to the sky, "Luo Cheng, oh Luo Cheng, I knew from the start you rogue had a treacherous heart!"

Following that, Changsun Wuji took out a jade seal from his bosom. The jade seal appeared unremarkable at first glance, but upon closer inspection, you would be surprised to find wisps of black air emanating from it!

Seeing it, Luo Cheng’s brow furrowed. He immediately bowed with his fists clasped to Changsun Wuji alongside the generals by his side.

Changsun Wuji’s mouth twitched into a sneer, and he coldly huffed, "Open Gate!"

Although somewhat reluctant, Luo Cheng still turned to his lieutenant and spoke a command before raising his hand and shouting, "Open Gate!"

"Boom!!"

The imposing doors of the checkpoint issued a muffled yet thunderous noise, slowly opening under your watchful eyes.

"Go!"

Changsun Wuji lifted his hand, tightened the reins, and spurred his horse forward in a charge.

Luo Cheng also came down from the city wall immediately, leading a small team as he rode to follow Changsun Wuji.

At this moment, you too had entered the checkpoint. To avoid startling the surrounding ghostly Underworld Soldiers, you slowed your pace as much as possible.

You had no extra energy left to observe Changsun Wuji and his group through the Sen Luo Eye; your only thought was to quickly leave the checkpoint, given the abundance of prying eyes.

The interior of the checkpoint had similarities and differences from its exterior.

Compared to the outside, it was a bit colder here, yet the sky above remained azure and bright, with birds occasionally flying past.

The flowers and plants on the ground were as lush as outside, except there was no scent to be detected here.

After leaving the checkpoint, you noticed a city on the horizon in front of you.

The city stood on flat ground between mountains and rivers and—speaking of the environment alone—it wasn’t too shabby. But even from hundreds of meters away, the city gave you an unpleasant feeling.

When you looked at it with the Sen Luo Eye, you involuntarily stepped back several paces. The air above the city was thick with Resentful Qi. This Resentful Qi was different from the Yin Ghost Qi of the ghosts in the Yang Realm. Even though Yin Ghost Qi could affect people, if a person possessed sufficiently strong Yang energy, the Yin Ghost Qi would not harm a hair on their head.

But this present Resentful Qi gave you an extreme sense of danger, as if one would become violent and irritable just by getting close.

You swallowed hard. You knew there was no longer anything to worry about, and you had to rescue Er Ya!

With that thought, you rushed forward at a brisk pace!

The city had no gates, or rather, the gates were open with no guards.

Of course, all these were superficial. You were well aware that rather than a city, it was more appropriate to call it a massive prison.

After entering the city, you found the scenes inside differed somewhat from what you saw outside. Upon entering the city, you were struck by its uniqueness—it was pyramid-shaped!

Residences were scattered around the outer perimeter of the city. Though called residences, they were actually prisons, for those people were locked inside their homes, unable to leave. The terrain naturally rose towards the center of the city, where the buildings became much grander.

Further up were courtyards with tall pavilions and lofty terraces, which provided a much better environment than below.

It wasn’t until this point that you realized each room here was a barrier, a remarkably strong one. People on either side of the barrier could not see each other.

You quickly reached the place where Changsun Wuji and others had left their horses. They had already ascended, and Wu Qiyi’s prison was at the pinnacle of the pyramid!

Continuing upwards, you then heard the argument between Changsun Wuji and Luo Cheng.

"Changsun Wuji! This is Heavenless Hell, not the Yama Palace!"

"Luo Cheng! Don’t forget, Yan Wang has the authority to execute any criminal, especially those with serious offenses!"

"You can execute whoever else you want, I won’t stop you, but not her!"

"Chong’er!"

"Father!"

"Attack!"

When you stealthily arrived at a staircase that was more than a hundred meters away from the topmost floor, you discovered two wide and large gateways.

There was no one in the courtyard on the left, while at the entrance of the courtyard on the right, two groups of people armed with knives were confronting each other.

The moment your front foot stepped onto the scene, Changsun Chong, holding a Tang Knife, took a stride forward and chopped down towards Luo Cheng!

Luo Cheng casually grasped and a Red Tassel Spear appeared out of thin air. Slamming the butt of the spear against the ground, an extremely powerful Qi Force swept outwards, sending the attacking Changsun Chong flying!

"Get lost!"

In terms of martial prowess, Luo Cheng was ranked among the top seven in the Early Tang Dynasty where military generals were prevalent—not to mention a single Changsun Chong, even Changsun Wuji and the hundred or so Underworld Soldiers behind him together were not enough to pose a challenge for Luo Cheng.

"In single combat, we naturally are no match for you, but do you really think we are intimidated by you?"

Changsun Wuji gave a sinister smile and pulled out a Gold Funnel from his embrace.

The instant Luo Cheng saw the Gold Funnel, he violently thrust his spear, transforming it into a dragon akin to silver thunder and lightning, aiming directly at Changsun Wuji!

"Too late!"

Changsun Wuji had thrown the Gold Funnel at Luo Cheng at the same time he raised his spear. Instantly, the object expanded, turning into a golden pyramid-shaped energy barrier that trapped the swiftly advancing Luo Cheng within!

"Clang!"

The Silver Electric Spear fiercely struck the golden energy barrier.

Luo Cheng’s seemingly sharp strike was completely blocked.

Luo Cheng, holding the spear, glared furiously at Changsun Wuji, "Changsun Wuji, you’re seeking personal revenge in the guise of public duty. Ksitigarbha will not forgive you for this!"

"We’ll talk about that when he comes back!"

With a cold snort, Changsun Wuji’s eyes, fierce as a malevolent wolf, emitted an extremely vindictive glint as he suddenly turned his head and looked up at the courtyard ahead, where the plaque hung with two characters—Wu Mansion!

Changsun Wuji raised his right hand, and a Gold Spell appeared in the palm of his hand. The Gold Spell immediately scattered a strong golden light that enveloped the entire Wu Mansion.

Soon enough, you realized that the barrier that had always shrouded the Wu Mansion had vanished.

Changsun Wuji and Changsun Chong exchanged glances, and father and son naturally displayed a smile that was particularly annoying to see.

"You all, stay out here and guard!"

"Yes!"

Changsun Chong kicked open the doors of the Wu Mansion and swaggered in.

Changsun Wuji, with his hands behind his back, wore a faint smile at the corners of his mouth, his eyes twinkling with sharp light.

Without a moment to spare, you vaulted over the wall and entered the Wu Mansion.

The Wu Mansion seemed large, and its interior facilities were very comprehensive. If there was anything to complain about, it would be the absence of people—it was quiet and desolate, making one naturally feel uncomfortable.

"Wu Wanhui, you can’t run anymore, come out!"

Changsun Chong was an impatient sort. Because the courtyard was quite large, he kept shouting non-stop.

"So noisy!"

It was Er Ya’s voice!
