Akali's eyes were so profound that she seemed to see through all the secrets in my heart at a glance. I couldn't help but lower my head, not daring to look at her.
The Earth Dragon clan has a special status in the Netherworld. Regardless of their appearance or body shape, they are similar to the Death God I saw.
What is the relationship between the two, I can't say now. Therefore, even if I judge a gentleman with a villain's heart, I still can't reveal my purpose.
"Thank you, senior!"
I could only accept the piece of fluff and said with gratitude.
Akali nodded slightly, then flapped her wings and left with the little Earth Dragon King.
It wasn't until Akali's figure disappeared that I let out a deep breath and continued paddling the canoe towards the other shore.
Without the harassment of the dead water ghosts, not long after, the canoe reached the other side of the Styx River. I jumped on the river bank and continued towards the dark place in the distance.
Following the direction given by Mr. Hu San, I walked all the way and walked in total darkness for about two hours. Not far ahead, a city finally appeared faintly.
Here is the destination of my trip, Song Emperor City, one of the thirty-two ghost cities in Yincao!
Compared with the City of the Past, Emperor Song City is larger in scale and more magnificent. Looking from a distance, there are countless green lights flashing in the city.
This is the will-o'-the-wisp emanating from the ghost people living in Emperor Song's city. Judging from the flashing will-o'-the-wisp, there are at least tens of thousands of ghost people in this ghost city.
If compared with the secular world, Purana City can only be said to be a small town, while Emperor Song City is basically equivalent to a large county town.
When I came to the city gate, I released a corpse demon aura, and my whole body was immediately wrapped in the turbid corpse aura. Yanran had become a real zombie.
The ghost soldiers at the door stood up straight when they saw me coming, not daring to stop me at all. Just like that, I walked in easily.
On the streets of the city, some richly dressed ghosts were walking in an endless stream, and there were shops on both sides. Although there was no living person on the street, there was a strange lively atmosphere.
In addition to countless dead souls walking on the streets, there are also some strange spirits and zombies, who from time to time sell treasures they have brought from the outside world to the passing ghost people.
These spirits, zombies, and the like are essentially the same as ghosts. They are all evil spirits that cannot be seen in the light. Therefore, some evil spirits with Taoism often travel to and from the underworld, playing the role of some yin and yang merchants.
As for living people, you absolutely cannot see them in Emperor Song City. After all, this is different from the City of the Past. This is a real ghost city. The Yincao Ghost City has strict rules, that is, no living people are allowed to enter. Once discovered, they will be arrested. The ghost people divided and ate them.
In addition to ordinary ghosts and spirits, a group of ghost soldiers wearing black armor will also pass by on the street from time to time. They are majestic and full of evil spirit. Once they see the ghost soldiers approaching, whether they are ordinary ghosts or evil spirits, they will They all retreated.
Because the aura of the corpse demon lingered around me, no one dared to cause trouble. I walked freely through the streets in a swagger, thinking about how to complete this mission as I walked.
As I was walking, I suddenly heard bursts of wailing coming from a small alley on the left, which was extremely shrill.
I followed the sound and walked in, and saw a thin ghost squatting under the wall not far away.
A ghost soldier was waving the long whip in his hand and whipping the ghost fiercely. The scream just now was caused by this ghost.
His figure was shaky, and every time the whip fell, a black energy would escape from the Yin Hun's body. It seemed that its soul was close to collapse.
Yin Hun's face was full of pain, and he knelt on the ground and begged, but there was no sympathy on the ghost soldier's face. The black whip in his hand continued to fall on Yin Hun, and he even let out a proud grin.
Seeing that the long whip in the ghost soldier's hand was about to fall again, I was sure that if the whip fell, the poor ghost would be driven away immediately, so I shouted immediately.
"stop!"
The ghost soldier was stunned for a moment, turned to look at me, and his face became gloomy.
"Mr. Corpse Demon, I am executing the punishment on the ghost people in the city according to the instructions of the Lord of the City. Do you, an outsider, have to intervene?"
I said calmly: "I don't want to break the rules of Song Emperor City, but the breath of this ghost is more to my taste. I plan to use it to sacrifice the corpse energy. Brother, please give me this ghost as a favor. How about this?" ?”
"this……"
Hearing what I said, the ghost soldier hesitated for a while.
He should know in his heart that with the strength of the corpse demon, it would be easy to kill one of his little ghost soldiers.
What's more, he is alone now, with no other companions around him. If he doesn't agree to my request, I can kill him with a snap of my fingers.
"Since Mr. Corpse Demon has taken a fancy to him, I naturally don't dare to make any mistakes."
After the ghost soldier finished speaking to me, he glanced at the ghost again: "You're lucky, you won't be able to escape so easily next time if I encounter you!"
After saying these words, the ghost soldier put away his whip and left the alley dejectedly.
Although the ghost soldiers left, the ghost still shivered and knelt on the ground, trembling.
"Why are you still kneeling? You are free now."
I walked up to Yinhun and said calmly.
The ghost raised his head and looked at me with surprise in his eyes.
"Lord Corpse Demon, you, you want to let me go?"
"But I just heard you say that you want to use me as a sacrifice to refine the corpse energy..."
"How much do you think a nearly collapsed ghost can do for me in refining corpse energy?"
The ghost couldn't help but lowered his head in shame, but the confusion in his eyes became even deeper.
"If that's the case, then why did you save me..."
I said calmly: "As for me, I have always liked to fight against injustice. I can't stand it when I see someone bullying the weak. I don't have that many reasons."
As I said that, there was a ball of cold air in my hand, and I handed it to the ghost.
"This ball of Yin Qi can re-condensate your three souls and seven souls. Absorb it quickly, otherwise your ghost body will not be able to support it for long."
The Yin Hun trembled all over. He took the Yin Qi with great excitement and swallowed it in one gulp. Then, his soul body gradually became solid.
"Thank you so much, my benefactor, Brother Gui is very grateful!"
Feeling that his soul had become extremely solid, Yin Hun knelt down excitedly and thanked me.
"Brother Gui, is that your name?"
"Yes, sir. Because I am the youngest in the family, my family has always called me little brother. After my death, I was also called ghost brother by my friends around me."
The ghost answered honestly.
