Do not engage in underworld operations in the human world!

Chapter 257 The Ultimate Trial of the World

Jiang Lu didn't expect that the quality of the underworld had become so low after he left.

But from another perspective, he was quite satisfied.

Although there is no brother in the world, there is still the legend of brother.

Hu Ji could never have imagined that the former Lord of the Underworld, who in her eyes seemed to be good for nothing but debauchery, was right in front of her.

But Jiang Lu was not prepared to be exposed.

The winner is the king and the loser is the bandit. History is written by the victor. He still doesn't know how his life will be arranged after reincarnation, nor does he know what the attitude of the current generation of underworld people is towards him, so he wants to observe the situation for a while.

Seeing Jiang Lu in deep thought, Hu Ji thought that "An Dan" in front of her was trying his best to recall, so she asked tentatively:

"Well, did you remember something?"

"I think so." Jiang Lu replied vaguely: "I vaguely remember something, but the impression is not very deep. I don't know why."

"About what part?"

"Just the part about King Jiang Huo." Jiang Lu scratched his head: "It feels a little different from what I remembered."

"This"

Hu Ji showed an embarrassment.

Seeing this, Jiang Lu felt something strange. He felt that the other party seemed to be deliberately hiding something.

So he took advantage of his "amnesia" and asked directly, "What's wrong?"

"Well." Hu Ji's eyes dodged and she said, "Didn't you say that we should never make irresponsible comments at any time?"

She suddenly became suspicious. She hadn't noticed it before, but when they talked about this sensitive topic, she felt that there was something wrong with the person in front of her. Although his voice and appearance had not changed, his speaking style and personality seemed to have changed.

Even if he lost his memory, his personality shouldn't change drastically.

Jiang Lu also keenly noticed the subtle changes in Hu Ji's attitude.

Is she starting to doubt me?
But even realizing this, Jiang Lu still felt helpless.

This is his first time to come into contact with the underworld from a first-person perspective. He cannot give up this opportunity to understand the current underworld just because of the risks.

So Jiang Lu pretended to be angry and asked confidently: "Isn't this amnesia? I have forgotten who I am, how can I remember these things?"

Hu Ji thought about it and it seemed to be true. Besides, the death of the man now made her feel vaguely that there was something fishy about it, which somewhat dispelled her doubts.

After a moment's hesitation, she said cautiously, looking somewhat guilty:
"Well, it's normal for you to feel that there are discrepancies. After all, the real situation is not like this. You told me the inside story once when you were drunk."

"Elaborate."

"You said at the time that Emperor Yin did not get the throne legitimately, but by betraying King Jiang Huo. So in order to justify himself, he accused King Jiang Huo of many unfounded crimes. The actual King Jiang Huo may not be who we know him to be now."

Hu Ji recalled:
"But you never told me what kind of person King Jiang Huo was. Even when you were very drunk, you were very secretive. I don't know what happened in detail."

"Is that really the case?" Jiang Lu nodded.

It is said that history is a cycle, and the same thing has happened to many people. Those who came to power by being a traitor and stabbing their masters in the back, such as Zhou to Shang and Song to Later Zhou, basically the first thing they did after they got their seats was to throw dirty water on their former masters, and excessive debauchery was considered the least of their faults. Their purpose was to beautify the process of their rise to power so that they would be more easily accepted by the public.

The core is to create such an effect:
Did I do that to become the emperor myself? It was because that person had done so many bad things that God could not tolerate him anymore, so I stood up for him. So I was not a rebel at all, I was an uprising.

Even if we take a step back and say that he was a good emperor, could I have taken him down so easily?

So my ascension to the throne as emperor = the previous emperor was not qualified.

When people who don’t know the inside story hear this, they say, wow, the emperor was such a piece of shit, I support you, you are the one that everyone wants!
Rumors are like this, from the moment they are spread, they become true no matter how untrue they are.

Few people care whether it is true or not, more people only care whether the rumor is explosive enough.

And to put it bluntly, Jiang Lu was not a white lotus. Those stories made up about him cannot be called fiction. At most, they can only be considered exaggerated.

Therefore, he was not surprised at such a result. The only thing that made him curious was that he was a well-known figure in the universe, and he had single-handedly changed the situation of the underworld, which was similar to the situation of hell in heaven, and became equal to the Lord of Heaven.

I am the true leader of the revival of the country, and there are legends about me everywhere. How could I be forgotten so easily?
Is the Yin Emperor so capable that he can tamper with the history of the heavens and all worlds?

Thinking of this, Jiang Lu pretended to be surprised, and suddenly said excitedly: "I seem to remember something about King Jiang Huo. I seem to have heard that he can be found somewhere other than the underworld."

But who knew that as soon as he finished speaking, Hu Ji covered his mouth anxiously: "Don't dare to say anything nonsense."

Jiang Lu frowned and pulled her hand away: "What did you just do?"

"This is not important."

Hu Ji whispered:
"Have you forgotten how the last Grand Marshal of the Underworld was deposed by the Yin Emperor? He found some clues when he went to the Heavenly Palace for study and exchange, and he didn't control his mouth. As a result, as soon as he returned to the Underworld, the Yin Emperor found a reason to depose him.

He just retired in the morning and was found dead at home in the evening. This is how you got the chance to take over.

You know the inside story. If you go there knowing there are tigers, you will be the next one to be eliminated!"

"I didn't say I was going to look for him, I just said I had this impression." Jiang Lu said indifferently.

Hu Ji said helplessly: "By the way, what are you remembering? Each one is more dangerous and sensitive than the other. I think you are not losing your memory, but you are planning to lose your head as well?"

"That's not a problem." Jiang Lu shrugged.

An Dan's brain had been destroyed when Jiang Lu launched the Earth Rumbling. This situation is generally called brain death in medicine.

In a sense, it's like losing your head.

Seeing that Jiang Lu agreed with her words, Hu Ji sighed and said, "So listen to my advice and don't ask about things that you shouldn't ask about."

But Jiang Lu certainly couldn't give up just like that. He planned to take the risk and go all the way down the road to death.

He changed the subject again: "How long has the Yin Emperor been in power?"

"Two thousand three hundred and twenty-three years." Hu Ji replied immediately.

"Two thousand years?" Jiang Lu thought. It seemed that the entire underworld and the world he was in now also followed a time flow rate of 1:1000.

This is actually reasonable. A few months can make people forget what happened on the Internet, a few years are enough for people to forget something very important to them, decades are enough for people to forget a period of history, and hundreds or even thousands of years can make people completely forget the original appearance of the former emperor and be covered by new history. This is not impossible.

All I can say is that Yin Di’s chess game is a bit big.

If that's the case, then there's no point in continuing to ask questions. Jiang Lu knows that he won't get what he wants.

His close confidants, such as the God of Contract and the Mother of a Hundred Arts, either died, escaped, or were exiled. They are probably no longer in the underworld, and those who remain are the diehard fans left behind after the Yin Emperor's major blood changes.

Moreover, after continuous optimization, Jiang Lu guessed that the backbones of the underworld might be people who are less than two thousand years old. Having grown up in such an environment, they might believe in this fictional underworld history more than the Yin Emperor himself.

Let’s not talk about anything else, just talk about An Dan.

As a marshal, he was able to lead his troops to the underworld and even gain the upper hand. Although the way he came to the position was a bit abstract and not so presentable, his ability was definitely not a problem.

But Jiang Lu had never heard of anyone with such ability. He was 100% sure that An Dan was definitely not from his era. Otherwise, with his ability to identify people and his keen eye for talent, he would have discovered such a talent long ago.

Therefore, there are probably very few people who know the truth now. Even Jiang Lu suspected that after Yin Di consolidated his position, he deliberately killed people to silence them. He killed all those who knew the truth, and then slowly optimized the brainwashing.

Otherwise, how could it be possible that just because the previous Grand Marshal found some dirty secrets about him in Heaven, he would be killed without any hesitation?

No matter how you look at it, it's really too skilled and decisive.

So now if we want to further uncover the truth of that year, it seems that the only way is to meet the Yin Emperor himself.

Seeing that Jiang Lu had been silent for such a long time with a serious expression, Hu Ji became inexplicably flustered. Although she was just chewing her tongue, she always had a hunch that she seemed to have done something extraordinary.

"Um, husband, how about we not talk about these things?"

Hu Ji felt a sudden palpitation for no reason:
"I always feel uneasy inside, as if I have done something bad and got caught."

Ah, because the spine you poked is mine.

Jiang Lu really wanted to say this, but he didn't say it in the end.

"Let's talk about something else." Jiang Lu said with a bitter smile: "I don't remember anything now. What do you think Emperor Yin would do if I went to the battlefield? I don't think I can lead troops to fight."

"We can only wait and see. Maybe you will slowly remember it after a while." Hu Ji was also very helpless, but she thought of something and comforted him: "But you don't have to worry too much. I suddenly remembered that the front line seems to be at a stalemate recently. There shouldn't be any large-scale battles for a while."

"Why?" Jiang Lu was curious.

“The main gods from other worlds suddenly came out one after another to put pressure on Emperor Yin.

Recently, the Yin Emperor has been busy dealing with pressure from all sides, so he has temporarily let go of the underworld.

Fortunately, we have an absolute advantage, and the Underworld doesn't have much energy to fight back, so the situation is at a stalemate."

Hu Ji explained.

"Why?" Jiang Lu felt very strange: "Didn't those main gods sit on the mountain and watch the fight between the tigers before? Why did they suddenly come out and put pressure on the Yin Emperor?"

"Uh"

Perhaps Hu Ji thought the reason was a bit absurd, and couldn't help laughing:
"It's funny, Zeus, the Emperor of Heaven on the other side, united many gods from other worlds and even made up a pantheon called the Outer Gods. He also said that behind the Yin Emperor stood a very evil Outer God.

The key is that the main gods still believed it. Well, maybe strictly speaking they were half-believing and half-doubting. In short, they wanted Yin Di to prove that he had nothing to do with those foreign gods.

But how can one prove something that does not exist?
Isn’t this pure rumor?”

Hearing this, Jiang Lu was startled at first, then said excitedly: "Fuck! My brother has become a partner of justice, I am so proud!"

"what?"

Hearing that his good brother was no longer the rat that everyone wanted to beat, and even joined forces with other main gods, Jiang Lu asked excitedly: "Don't you? Go on, how did the Yin Emperor deal with it?"

Hu Ji shook her head: "I only know that Yin Di is dealing with it, but I don't know how he is dealing with it. However, I think he must be under a lot of pressure recently, otherwise he would not have called you back from the front line."

".?" Jiang Lu's smile froze: "Didn't you say I sneaked back by myself?"

"You may have misunderstood." Hu Ji bit her lip and said pitifully, "You came to see me because you ran away secretly, but you came back from the front line because of the order of the Yin Emperor."

"Uh," Jiang Lu realized something: "He's under a lot of pressure and wants to chisel me, right?"

"Chisel" Hu Ji covered her face and laughed: "What an appropriate expression."

Before Jiang Lu could say anything, she said coquettishly: "Speaking of this, you were going to chisel me, but before you even started, you..."

She stopped talking, but her eyes became more charming, and her already rosy lips became even more delicate and tempting.

Seeing her like this, Jiang Lu couldn't help feeling a little guilty.

An Dan finally had a chance to change his fate of being chiseled and chisel others, but he was turned into brain death by his own earth rumbling at the critical moment, and was replaced by himself in the middle. He must have died with regrets.

So what if he died? But he left behind such an attractive concubine. I really don’t know who will get the chance in the future.

When Jiang Lu thought of this, he felt a little regretful.

At this moment, a dialog box suddenly appeared in front of Jiang Lu.

[The Ultimate Trial - Andan's Obsession ①]

Please help An Dan to exercise his manly power with his body.

"?"

Jiang Lu silently lowered his head and turned over the fat on his belly. He searched through several layers before he found the small mushroom hidden in the fat.

Looking at this pitiful guy, Jiang Lu showed a look of pity.
