Chapter 782: Punishing the Southern Ghost Emperor!

In the past few days in Imperial City, all the talk in the streets and alleys was about the marriage between Qin Feng and the princess.

These tantalizing events, though distant, became the topic of conversation for people after meals and during tea breaks.

As the Great Qian continued to grow stronger, with various schools of thought flourishing, people gradually forgot about the horrors and terrors of Demons and Ghosts.

However, outside the Imperial City, the disturbance that disrupted the balance between life and death had intensified. It was only due to the intervention of the Demon Slaying Department and the court that ordinary people knew little about it.

Transcendent beings hidden in the four domains of the Great Qian all sensed the anomaly, understanding that this realm was about to face a great calamity.

Some chose to leave their original positions. Thus, there were often sightings of mountains moving at night, with long serpentine bodies roaming above the dark clouds.

Sharp bird cries could be heard from within the volcanoes, and fleeting shadows could be glimpsed in the depths of the sea.

Of course, some cautious beings chose to continue hiding in the void, including the Lord of Marsh.

He sniffed the air and grimaced, “Disgusting aura, similar to the aura that permeated the Immortal Realm when the Gods and Demons descended.”

As someone who always believed in doing less rather than more, he was preparing to unfold the void technique to conceal himself even deeper when he saw a figure emitting a holy white light pass by in the night sky.

Facing disaster, not all beings chose to retreat; some sought change and opportunity. The owner of the white light was evidently one of them.

“It’s that damned white deer again,” he muttered as his words dissipated into the night.

In the southern domain, near the highest peak close to the moon, a figure stood with hands behind his back, staring blankly at the moonlit sky.

As a gentle night breeze blew, the Seven-Colored Horned White Deer landed lightly beside the figure.

“You’ve come to me voluntarily, it seems you have recovered most of your memories,” the delicate and gentle words flowed from the mouth of the white deer, with a hint of reminiscence and longing in its eyes.

“I want to return to the Immortal Realm.”

“I see.” The white deer nodded slightly. Wasn’t this the goal they had been planning for thousands of years?

It knew that the man in front of it wanted to return to the upper realm, to regather his strength and confront the upcoming crisis.

“What do you need me to do?”

“Help me protect someone.”

“Is it him?”

“Yes.”

After a moment, Meng Shuang seemed to have realized something, her expression changed drastically, “At this juncture, the top combat power in the Netherworld is indispensable, and everyone knows it. However, even so, Lord Shentu still wants to challenge Mr. Qin.”

“Before the truth is revealed, such words must not be spoken lightly. Shentu has existed since the birth of the Netherworld, and he cannot hope to see the Netherworld overturned.” The little girl shook her head.

“But why does he target the Southern Ghost Emperor? There should be no grudge between the two of them,” Meng Shuang wondered.

“Perhaps, in such a critical moment, Shentu doesn’t want internal problems to arise, so he wants to temporarily detain the Southern Ghost Emperor who came from the broken realm.”

“Moreover, even though the Abyssal Prison is a place of void cracks, the Southern Ghost Emperor will not be in danger there. Zhao Wenhe will let him out when he finds out the truth.”

Just then, two figures entered the hall.

The Ghost Lord looked up, and the visitors were Shentu and Zhao Wenhao.

The former was aggressive, while the latter frowned, appearing hesitant to speak.

Shentu spoke first, “The truth has been revealed. The chaos in the Netherworld, the disruption of the balance between life and death, is inseparable from the Southern Ghost Emperor.”

“Why do you say so?” The Ghost Lord frowned.

Shentu didn’t explain much, but took out a grain of black sand from his pocket.

The black sand floated in the air, projecting a scene.

In the scene, Father Qin was crossing the tribulation and entering the transcendence realm. There was a black and gold radiance swirling around him, and the laws of the Netherworld were continuously being consumed and destroyed by that black and gold radiance.

But at the moment Father Qin succeeded in transcending, a bone arm reached out from the void, taking away some of the black light, yet Father Qin seemed oblivious to it all!

“The cultivation method of the Southern Ghost Emperor is vastly different from that of the Netherworld. That black and gold radiance may be the cause of the disruption of the balance between life and death. The owner of the bone arm is those guys. The Southern Ghost Emperor has hidden such important information and has evil intentions. I hope the Ghost Lord will carry out proper judgment!”

The Ghost Lord’s expression turned grave as she turned her gaze to Zhao Wenhao.

The latter exhaled and said, “Lord Shentu’s words are true.”

The black sand is scattered dust in the void of the Netherworld, possessing the magical ability to replay past scenes, making it difficult to fake.

With such facts presented, even Meng Shuang couldn’t defend Father Qin.

“So, what do you want this lord to do?”

Shentu exclaimed loudly, “I implore the Ghost Lord to impose the punishment of ‘Hades’ on the Southern Ghost Emperor as a warning to others!”
