Chapter 1290: Citywide Lockdown
The judge didn't hesitate, quickly entering the room and scanning the bookshelf repeatedly with his eyes.
After a moment, he respectfully said: "Reporting to the Southern Ghost Emperor, there are indeed traces of disturbance in the records here, but the exact number is unclear, and nothing seems to be missing."
The Southern Ghost Emperor said seriously: "Find out what records he has seen, don't miss any."
Trace his viewing history to infer his purpose.
"Yes!"
The judge's heart ached, but he dared not resist. He hurried forward to search quickly.
First, the middle bookshelf, then the left bookshelf, and finally the right bookshelf.
He felt like all the records had been scrutinized, but he dared not speak out. Being tied up was a huge humiliation. If he couldn't analyze and redeem himself, his position would be in jeopardy.
There was not a single bird singing outside the door.
The King of Hell, Yama, was startled and stood in disbelief. The more he thought about it, the less it made sense. He had just been studying anomalies at the residence of the Emperor of Fengdu when this creature appeared. Could these two events be related
If there truly is a connection, it would be a momentous event unprecedented in the history of Fengdu!
The crowd behind him dared not speak, all kneeling on the ground, trembling with fear.
Time flies by minute by minute.
The judge held a thick stack of records in his hand, just short of the last row of bookshelves. Suddenly, his gaze fell on the bookshelf in the corner, where... it was completely empty.
Oh my.
He screamed in fright, his whole body going limp as he collapsed to the ground. His notes scattered everywhere, and the fear on his face was undeniable.
What is it
The Southern Ghost Emperor quickly asked.
Betrayal wanted to stand up, but he found he had no strength in his body. He trembled and raised a finger towards the corner: "Regarding what the Ghost Emperor said, it's gone. Sure enough, there are records missing. It seems it was just kept there, probably taken by him."
Whoosh!
The Southern Ghost Emperor was slightly excited. He would rather lose than waste time guessing, and could follow the record to find that person instead.
He asked, "Who made that record"
The judge gritted his teeth and said with difficulty, "There are two records."
One is the First Demon Lord, Ye Wujie.
"The other one is the second-generation Demon Lord, Jiang Caimeng."
"What"
The Southern Ghost Emperor let out a bellow, even he couldn't keep his composure. Who did that thief steal the records from They were not just anyone! They were two people whose history was an absolute taboo in Fengdu. Even he rarely spoke about them.
What was the thief's motive for stealing their records
People outside also heard the name.
The King of Hell was so scared he almost fell over.
Others were even scared into lying on the ground.
What are these two people recording for Every little ripple in their lives is a tsunami to Fengdu.
The Southern Ghost Emperor calmed his emotions, pondered for a moment, and thought that this matter was beyond his control. He slowly raised his finger upward, and a burst of energy shot out.
Soon.
Several dozen figures appeared in the backyard.
The remaining nine Halls of Hell, the Four Directions Ghost Emperors, and even the Emperor of Mount Fu.
Suddenly, the pressure in the small courtyard reached its peak. The ox-head and horse-face, along with others, were almost crushed to the point of losing their souls.
The Southern Ghost Emperor quickly recounted the events.
"What"
"What"
The remaining four emperors' expressions were identical to that of the Southern Ghost Emperor just now, all shocked. They had thought it was just someone causing trouble in the city, creating unrest. However, they never expected such a person to appear.
The remaining nine Halls of Hell were utterly astonished. Suddenly, they remembered when Ye Wuji first arrived, he punched the Five Emperors and kicked the Great Emperor, truly an invincible being!
Then that person……
They simultaneously turned their heads to look at the Emperor of Fengdu, their eyes spoke volumes. They also felt that perhaps the strange phenomenon in Fengdu was related to this man.
The Emperor of Fengdu let out a long sigh, only then realizing this was the last time he "betrayed" Ye Fusheng. He never expected that he wouldn't be caught
Stress is here again!
If it's not investigated, it doesn't make logical sense.
If it came to an investigation, he wouldn't be able to leave this city of the dead, it would be like a death sentence.
The Emperor of Fengdu raised his hand, and an array surrounded them, containing only a few people.
"Then they asked him, "Do you think these visions are connected to him"
The Ghost Emperor spoke first: "It's better to believe it exists than not. If this thief hadn't appeared, the phenomenon would definitely be related to the collision of mortal thoughts. But since he has appeared, we have to think more deeply."
The Northern Ghost Emperor said solemnly: 'This thief's appearance is full of strangeness, we have to take it seriously. Especially what was just mentioned, the Soul-Crushing Whip had no effect on him at all, which is even more strange.'
"All the soul-beating whips in Fengdu are magical artifacts that inflict special damage on souls. However, he is completely immune to them, which indicates that his soul has reached a certain level of strength. If left unchecked, he will undoubtedly cause havoc."
The Eastern Ghost Emperor said in a deep voice: “There is one more important point. This thief is incredibly bold and audacious, he even dared to tempt the King of Hell, trying to control him. If we don’t eliminate him in time, the consequences will be unimaginable.”
That's the scariest part. He's already starting to attack people in charge of the underworld, even though he didn't hurt the Black and White Impermanence before. But who can guarantee that he called the King Yama here just to chat
The Emperor of Fengdu nodded slightly, meaningfully saying: "What are your speculations about this person's identity..."
The Southern Ghost Emperor spoke first: “It shouldn’t be a mortal who practices Yin-Yang sorcery. Firstly, a sorcerer wouldn't have the ability to resist the Black and White Impermanence. Secondly, according to their description, it should be a pure soul.”
The Western Ghost Emperor said solemnly: "It shouldn't be a demon either. Hei Wu Chang and Niu Tou Ma Mian know the ways of demons, they should have noticed something unusual if it were."
The Center Ghost Emperor shook his head: "It's even more impossible that it was an immortal from the Upper Realm. According to the description, the thief didn't have any magical artifacts or fairy aura. I also think he was purely a soul body."
The real intention of the Hell-God Emperor was to let them deduce his specific identity. For example, who would use Jia Sidao as a cover If they had even a slight chance of saying Ye Fusheng, he could seize the opportunity to object and lay the groundwork in advance, so that he wouldn't be caught later on and reveal himself.
Unexpectedly, they went astray.
It's not possible to continue guiding, it would be too deliberate.
"So, are you going to search the entire city"
"Yes!"
The Five Ghost Emperors replied in unison.
The Emperor of Fengdu commanded with a solemn air, "Very well, search the entire city!"
This was their idea, they just agreed to it. It's not considered "betraying" Ye Fusheng.
With the decision made, the entire city of Fengdu instantly entered a search state, its intensity surpassing that of Captain Gu's previous searches.
All guards donned civilian clothes and took to the streets.
All the apparitions roamed the city.
All personnel take formation, the connection point of the realm is guarded.
The simplest analogy is that it's like an airtight net, already spread across the city of Fengdu.
……
Meanwhile.
Ye Fu Sheng was moving through the crowd, looking just like any ordinary person. He gazed at the city wall in the distance, watching as the guards began to increase, a growing sense of foreboding settling in his heart.
In fact.
He didn't leave the courtroom in advance.
After calling upon the King of Hell with a jade talisman, I waited outside the courtyard. I carefully steered the Wannian boat and only left when I saw the Southern Ghost Emperor arrive... the day your master appears. At that time, your master and you will together strike at the Upper Realm, crushing Lingxiao...complete!”Ye Fusheng looked more and more troubled, until he reached the la...
