The moment Luo Sheng opened the door.
An old voice came out, followed by the sight of a white-haired old man in plain clothes, covered in dust and exhausted, thin and frail.
With disheveled hair, dirty, a common prisoner image in the dungeon.
However, he was more miserable than the average prisoner, with shackles made by Xuantian restraining his hands and feet.
Several 1-meter long iron chains locked him to the wall.
Limiting his range of motion to no more than 1 meter.
There were also several shiny iron rings precisely locking his dragon bones.
Rendering him unable to use even a fraction of his strong abilities.
He could only endure torment in this dungeon, suffering daily purification in an endless purgatory.
Therefore, he looked very disheveled, but his voice remained steady and deep, carrying the sense of timeâs vicissitudes.
âIf you want to kill me, just do it quickly, no need to torture this old man like this,â the elder said in a deep voice.
But the moment he looked up, he froze in place.
Unable to use his cultivation, he couldnât sense whose aura it was, unable to distinguish between Luo Sheng and the Ghost King.
He had only thought the one opening the door was the Ghost King, coming to take his life.
But seeing Luo Sheng before him.
A confused expression appeared on his aged face.
Luo Sheng then coughed and reintroduced himself: âThe Golden King has already been killed by us. Iâm here to take over Fengdu Ghost City. You can call me Luo Sheng, and this is my fiancee, Bai Moxue.â
âThat bastard Jin Ke is dead?â
Jin Ke was the Ghost Kingâs full name.
Faced with the old manâs questioning again.
Luo Sheng nodded solemnly, âHe died at the hands of my fiancee. Look, this is his ghost crystal.â
As he spoke, he displayed a purple crystal emanating a terrifying energy, obtained from killing the Ghost King.
âGood riddance!â
The old man sighed, as if a great revenge had been fulfilled, and his whole body relaxed.
Then he turned his head calmly to look at Luo Sheng, âWhat do you want from me?â
Luo Sheng then said: âI know you were once the City Lord of Fengdu Ghost City, the Yin King, Wang Yuanping, so I wanted to ask you about some things.â
As he spoke.
He came to the Yin Kingâs side, took out the steel-melting sword that could create ultra-high temperatures, and slowly cut through the dark iron.
Releasing the Yin King.
He wasnât worried about what the Yin King might do to him, although the Yin King possessed gold-level abilities.
Unfortunately, he had lost a large amount of his cultivation, and the power he could exert was only at the silver level, even weaker than Bai Moxue at her peak.
So, Luo Sheng wasnât afraid at all.
âThank you, young one.â
Wang Fangping felt the shackles on his body loosen bit by bit, and his previously unusable cultivation slowly recovered.
Stroking the indentations on his hands and feet where the shackles had been.
His mind was in a daze.
He had thought he would spend the rest of his life trapped in this dungeon, enduring endless torment until death.
He never expected to have a day of rebirth.Enjoying the story? Read on at noveâlping.com.
âWhat do you want to know from me?â the Yin King asked again.
Luo Sheng then stated his purpose: âI want to know why the Yin-Yang world has fallen into disorder, and why you were imprisoned here, allowing the Ghost King to become the city lord and act as his accompliceâŠ
Also, what exactly is beneath the Demon Suppression Tower?â
These were all the various problems and anomalies that had appeared in Bai Moxueâs world.
So, Luo Sheng wanted to understand clearly.
He also wanted to unravel the reason for the Card World being darkened.
âYou have too many questions. I can enlighten you, but now is not the time to talk here.â
As the Yin King spoke, he looked towards Bai Moxue.
She was protected by a thin film of water, but the water film was evaporating bit by bit, and in about two incense sticksâ time, the water film would be depleted.
âHer essence blood is burning severely. If she continues to stay here, Iâm afraid she wonât survive,â the Yin King pointed out.
Luo Sheng then came to his senses.
Although Bai Moxue seemed fine now, if the ice water protection disappeared, she would have to endure heavy suffering.
âIâm sorry, I didnât consider thoroughly.â
He held Bai Moxueâs hand.
Bai Moxue also lowered her head, her face also showing apology. If she hadnât been so weak, she wouldnât have needed someone to take care of her.
âRepairing her essence blood will be extremely difficult. The precious materials needed have probably been eaten by that bastard Jin Ke,â the Yin King said.
After all, Luo Sheng had saved his life.
Freeing him from the suffering in the cage.
However, if there was really no way to restore Bai Moxue, being able to survive would already be good enough.
Luo Sheng said indifferently: âSir, Iâve already thought of a solution for this.â
âThatâs good.â
The Yin King nodded.
Then the three left the dungeon and returned to the City Lordâs mansion.
But when the Yin King appeared in the City Lordâs mansion.
The former ghost soldiers all showed surprised expressions.
Many ghost soldiers prostrated themselves on the ground: âYin King, so you didnât die, we thought you had passed away!â
âYes!â
âThe Ghost King said you had died from cultivation deviation, so he took control of Fengdu Ghost City.â
Faced with the crying subordinates, the Yin King was also moved, âI was just imprisoned by that beast, but now itâs all over, and heâs dead.â
Then the Yin King asked the surrounding ghost soldiers: âOnly you are left? What about the others?â
Hearing his words, their faces showed even more painful expressions.
A ghost soldier came directly in front of him, âMy lord, the others are all dead. To eliminate dissent, the Golden King sent them to their deaths one by one, and finally replaced them with his own people.â
âWhat!â
The Yin King showed an extremely surprised expression.
His originally calm face showed a worried look, and he bent over, seeming to have aged many years.
âHeheheâŠâ He laughed bitterly, âI agreed to hand over the position of City Lord of Fengdu Ghost City to him back then, to protect my subordinates. I didnât expect him to treat me like this. That bastard truly deserved to die!â
He glanced at the people around him.
The familiar ghost generals were long gone, replaced by new faces.
But under him, the very lowly ghost soldiers all still recognized him.This chapter is updated first at novДlping.com.
Even Soldier A and Soldier B knelt on the ground, crying in pain.
Luo Sheng said from the side: âThese are all very loyal ghost soldiers. Just by throwing down a few resources, they can grow again and become great generals.â
The Yin King waved his hand.
He found a stone stool and sat down.
âNo, no, Fengdu Ghost City was taken by you, you should be in charge. Iâve been imprisoned for so many years, I no longer want to manage Fengdu. I hope youâll treat the people below well.â
The Yin King said straightforwardly.
He laughed bitterly again.
The torture he had endured over these years made him never want to touch Fengdu Ghost City affairs again.
He also didnât want to fight with Luo Sheng for control of Fengdu Ghost City. There was no need to make sacrifices for this, and he might not be able to defeat Luo Sheng anyway.
The current Luo Sheng should have used some kind of spell to conceal his aura.
But judging by his calm demeanor in the face of the high temperatures of the endless purgatory, his strength should not be low.
In addition to his life-saving grace, the Yin King felt that giving Fengdu Ghost City to them might be a good choice, and he could also focus on his own cultivation.
At this time, Bai Moxue said from the side: âGrandpa, Luo Sheng will leave a position for you in Fengdu, so you can live here.â
She wanted to help Luo Sheng win over the Yin King.
The Yin King forced out a smile, âThen I thank you.â
After he rested for a cup of teaâs time.
The Yin King began to answer the questions Luo Sheng had raised earlier: âThe disorder of the Yin-Yang world is due to the King of Hell. Everyone thinks the King of Hell has disappeared, but in fact, he hasnât disappeared, he has gone into cultivation deviation.â
âCultivation deviation?â Luo Sheng frowned slightly.
Bai Moxue also expressed her confusion from the side: âThe King of Hellâs strength is so formidable, he generally wouldnât go into cultivation deviation.â
The Yin King explained in detail: âBut he did indeed go into cultivation deviation. As far as this old man knows, he didnât go into cultivation deviation while cultivating.
Instead, suddenly, a black energy was born in him.
So he went mad, slaughtering all the subordinates around him, even devouring their cultivation. It took two days to massacre everyone in the King of Hell Palace, and then he disappeared.
Such a big event, only a few people knew about it, but they didnât dare tell others that the King of Hell had gone mad, they could only falsely report that the King of Hell had disappeared.â
Listening to the Yin Kingâs explanation.
Luo Sheng nodded thoughtfully.
And expressed his own thoughts: âI think the King of Hell didnât suddenly go mad, but was influenced by the power of darkness.â
âPower of darkness?â
Both the Yin King and Bai Moxue showed puzzled expressions.
Luo Sheng had to explain like this: âA strange energy, just like the demons and monsters coming out of the Demon Suppression Tower, only understanding killing.
I canât explain the details to you yet.
I can only say that some mysterious force is controlling all this, so the disorder of Yin and Yang is just a derived result.â
The Yin King mentioned devouring.
It could confirm that the power of darkness suddenly descended upon the King of Hell long ago.
If thatâs the case, then the King of Hell card must be in the hands of an evil Card Master, and this evil Card Master is incredibly powerful.
Judging by the Yin Kingâs peak strength at the golden level, he was still no match for the King of Hell.
From this, it can be deduced that the King of Hell must be a platinum level or above card, and the Card Master possessing such cards must also be at this level or above in strength.
