Chapter 1256: Chapter 1255: Finding Xie Changliu, Yin Soul Returns to the Mortal World

The arrival of Xu Zimei was like a plague, everyone avoided him from afar.

Watching these people leave one by one, the elderly storyteller gently shook his head, collected the book in front of him, and prepared to leave.

“Old man, may I ask you a few questions?” Xu Zimei asked with a smile.

“Go ahead,” the old man lifted his head and looked at Xu Zimei, then spoke.

“Why are those people afraid to come near me?” Xu Zimei asked.

“They are all low-level ghost spirits, your yang energy is too strong; if they stay too long, their souls will scatter,” the old man explained.

“Is this Netherworld City considered a forbidden land?” Xu Zimei asked.

“The Netherworld City is Netherworld City, it is not considered a forbidden land,” the old man shook his head.

“If you want to go to the forbidden land, you can find the City Lord, the entrance is in his hands.”

Xu Zimei asked a few more simple questions, and before leaving, the old man reminded him: “The Netherworld City opens at night and closes at dawn.

If you don’t want to be expelled from the Netherworld City, you must find a shelter before dawn.”

Xu Zimei expressed thanks, walked down from the city wall, and brushed past people wearing various ghost masks.

He planned to find the City Lord of this Netherworld City.

However, after walking a few steps, he heard the sound of fighting coming from not far away.

The originally bustling street made many ghost spirits panic, several figures stepped into the air from a distance.

“Catch that human, the Ghost King has a reward,” several figures chasing behind roared angrily.

The person fleeing ahead was Xie Changliu.

After separating from Xie Changliu, Xu Zimei had asked him to wait in Rihua City.

Unexpectedly, the other party had also come to this Netherworld City.

Seeing Xie Changliu being chased, Xu Zimei frowned slightly, unsure of what was happening.

He secretly followed several figures, seeing Xie Changliu surrounded by sword intent.

He was fighting with those ghost envoys while searching for a route to escape.

However, there were guards all around the Netherworld City, making it extremely difficult to escape.

The strength of these ghost envoys was similar to Xie Changliu, for the moment neither could overpower the other.

Xu Zimei decided to first find a place to settle down.

He walked into several inns, but upon his entry, the inns directly shut their doors.

Due to the conflict of Yin Yang Qi, people here were extremely unfriendly to outsiders.

Turning a corner, Xu Zimei’s figure stopped in front of an inn named Granny Hua Building.

The shopkeeper here, an old blind woman, did not shun him, but staying here required underworld coins.

This was a kind of currency used in the Netherworld; Xu Zimei decided to first find Xie Changliu.

Several ghost envoys were constantly chasing Xie Changliu, fleeing throughout the entire Netherworld City.

“Leave him,” one of the ghost envoys said, holding a long staff, gently pointing its tip, a black net fell from the void.

Xie Changliu’s longsword flew over and directly tore the net apart.

“This won’t work,” one of the ghost envoys said with a troubled look.

“Why don’t we find the Ghost King?”

“Can’t handle this little matter, you think the Ghost King will let us off easily?” another ghost envoy said.

“Then what do we do? If we keep chasing, it might disrupt the city’s order.”

After some discussion, one ghost envoy suddenly shouted: “Aren’t you looking for your wife?

Stop and we can talk.”

Hearing this, Xie Changliu’s figure instantly stopped, but he still looked vigilantly at several ghost envoys.

“You want your wife’s yin soul,” one of the ghost envoys smiled.

“Just stay where you are and speak, I can hear you,” Xie Changliu stepped back, cutting off the advancing shadow of the ghost envoy.

“Alright, let me be direct, we ghost tribe come from the Netherworld Realm,” the ghost envoy explained.

“There is a Book of Life and Death in the Netherworld Realm; the Realm of Life and Death is vast, it records every deceased soul in detail.

If you look at the Book of Life and Death, you can find your wife’s yin soul.”

“So, what do you mean by this?” Xie Changliu frowned and asked.

“Give me the Ghost King’s Reincarnation Pearl, and I’ll take you to the Netherworld Realm,” the ghost envoy said.

“Do you think I would believe you?” Xie Changliu said: “A trivial ghost envoy, what qualifications do you have to say this.”

“Then there’s no negotiation,” the ghost envoy squinted eyes and suddenly shouted: “Take action.”

Several ghost envoys suddenly appeared around him in the void.

They surrounded Xie Changliu and all pointed in the void, numerous black nets soared upwards.

The nets merged into one, forming a net that was large enough to cover half of the Netherworld City.

Xie Changliu used sword intent to cut at it, but this brand new net was exceptionally tough, it couldn’t be torn apart in the slightest.

“Kid, since you are so unwilling to part with your wife, we’ll do you a favor, kill you and let you keep her company,” several ghost envoys said darkly.

The net directly wrapped around Xie Changliu, tightly binding him and making it impossible to move.

Several ghost envoys reached out, countless yin energy gushed out from their palms, carrying a putrid odor.

At this moment, a Mi Tian Blade Qi came across the void.

“Watch out,” several ghost envoys shouted.

As their figures quickly retreated, the blade qi exploded directly, creating a vortex in the void.

A big hand stretched out from the vortex, pulling Xie Changliu’s body into it.

The ghost envoys could only watch this scene helplessly, and then looked at each other.

“Someone is helping him in secret.”

“We are not a match for that person, if he doesn’t harm us, it’s likely he doesn’t want to offend our Netherworld.”

“This matter looks like we can only report it to the Ghost King.”

In a short time, they reached a consensus.

……

Within the bustling crowd of the Netherworld City, Xu Zimei and Xie Changliu walked among them.

“How did you get involved with them?” Xu Zimei asked.

“I want to find my wife’s yin soul,” Xie Changliu said after a brief silence.

“I just heard them say you stole the Ghost King’s Reincarnation Pearl; they intend to use it to coerce you into releasing your wife’s yin soul?” Xu Zimei asked.

Xie Changliu’s wife is currently temporarily residing within the Divine Continent; her yan soul has already been preserved by Xu Zimei using the Tree of Life.

Once the yin soul is found, she can be resurrected.

Being so close to the Netherworld now, it’s no wonder Xie Changliu would be so impulsive.

“Yes,” Xie Changliu nodded, not refuting it.

“You’re thinking too simply,” Xu Zimei shook his head in mirth.

“Why?” Xie Changliu asked.

“Do you know who the Dominator of the Netherworld Realm is?” Xu Zimei asked.

Xie Changliu still shook his head.

“The Lord of the Dead Spirits,” Xu Zimei replied.

Previously at the Old Monarch Temple, the old man had given him a list with this name on it.

“In the entire Netherworld Realm, unless the Lord of the Dead Spirits agrees.

Not to mention Ghost King, Ghost General, none would be of any use,” Xu Zimei said.

“Allowing a yin soul to return to the yang world has never happened in the history of the Netherworld Realm.”
