Chapter 925: Back to the Underworld
It was very sad to say this. Gu Shiyi and Wangyue looked at each other, sighed and said nothing.

It is said that everyone seeks immortality, but few people know that what those who achieve immortality see most is that their children and grandchildren pass away one after another, and in the end they are the only one left in the world. It is very sad to say!

Old Ma sighed for a while, then turned around and saw that Gu Shiyi and Wangyue didn't even eat the duck meat, so he smiled and said,
"This is his fate. We cannot change the cycle of fate. But fortunately, we are all still together!"

Yes!

Compared to other cultivators, they are already lucky. At least they all love each other and live together. They will never be alone on the road to immortality!

Gu Shiyi also laughed and nodded.

"That's right. When Yan'er and I ascend to heaven, we will take everyone with us to see the world!"

Wangyue blinked her small green eyes after hearing this.

"Gu Shiyi, I heard that the demon king had taken a fancy to you and that you could ascend together with him. Is that true?"

"you do not say!"

Gu Shiyi laughed loudly, and while chewing the duck he boasted about his past with King Tianyu.

"Thinking back then... King Tianyu was the great demon king of that world, the lord of Guiyin Mountain. The beauties of the fox clan lined up to flirt in front of him, but he didn't like any of them. He only liked me, your master..."

The three of them were gnawing on the duck while strolling casually along the street. Liuguang City was very prosperous and there was no curfew. The streets were very lively. The three of them had not felt the hustle and bustle of this world for a long time. Thinking that they would leave this world soon, they didn't know when they would be able to come back. So Gu Shiyi was not in a hurry to return to Tianyi Sect.

So the three of them walked and looked, and bought and ate along the way, but it was not until late at night that there were fewer and fewer people on the street. The street had gradually become deserted, and the shops along the street began to close their doors and send customers away. Seeing that the time was almost up, Gu Shiyi said to the two of them,
"Let's go to Tianyi Gate!"

Old Ma and Wangyue nodded. They all knew that the two of them had made weapons this time, which had caused dissatisfaction among the Heavenly Dao in this world. They had no objection to this. Only Wangyue raised his hands, sniffed the remaining food aroma on his hands, and said with regret,

“I wonder if there are so many delicious foods where we go?”

Gu Shiyi shook his head,

"I don't know, but it doesn't matter. If we don't have it, we can make it ourselves. My cooking skills are pretty good, especially cooking monsters!"

As the three of them were talking, they turned a corner and saw a long, deserted alley in front of them. The lanterns on the doors of the houses were swaying in the wind, and between the flickering lights, they saw a group of people slowly walking towards them from the depths of the alley.

Gu Shiyi raised his eyebrows and stopped. He saw the people on the opposite side getting closer and closer. They were all dressed in black, holding swords in their hands, wearing tall hats, and looked very similar to ordinary yamen runners, but their faces were extremely pale, and their feet did not touch the ground when they moved. There was also the leader, who was wearing a scholar's long gown, with a handsome face. His long gown fluttered, and his legs were also flying close to the ground.
"With such a heavy Yin energy, are the Yin soldiers patrolling the city at this hour?"

There are living people patrolling the city during the day, and ghost soldiers coming out at night to lead the dead people in the city.

Gu Shiyi took a closer look at the scholar in the lead. It turned out to be Huang Tianming, whom he had met before. When the group of ghost messengers approached,

"Brother Huang, it's been a while since we last met. Is everything going well?"

Gu Shiyi took a step forward and saluted. Huang Tianming saw her and hurried over to return the salute. He looked Gu Shiyi up and down with a strange look on his face.
"Um... Isn't Fellow Daoist Gu in Beiling? Why did he come to Liuguang City?"

Gu Shiyi saw his expression and heard his questions, and felt a little strange.
"What's the matter... Can't I come to Liuguang City?"

Huang Tianming gave a bitter smile.
"Well... it's a bit surprising to see Fellow Daoist Gu here..."

"Oh...how do you say it?"

Huang Tianming's expression became more and more strange, as if he wanted to say something but hesitated.

"Well... Fellow Daoist Gu must have done something big in Beiling before, right?"

After saying this, he looked at Gu Shiyi meaningfully, and Gu Shiyi immediately understood.
"How come...even the underworld knows about it?"

Huang Tianming smiled bitterly.

"The underworld is also the most important part of the cycle of heaven. How could I not know this? Now..."

Huang Tianming suddenly stopped talking, smiled bitterly and clasped his fists,
"Gu Daoyou, I am a lowly official and dare not easily reveal the secrets. If you are interested, you can go to the underworld to meet Brother Cui!"

Gu Shiyi knew that Cui Chenghuang was now a clerk beside Yama Luo, so he naturally knew a lot of inside information. After thinking for a while, he clasped his fists and said,

"Thank you, Brother Huang, for your advice. I will go back to Tianyi Gate first, and then go to the underworld to meet Brother Cui!"

Huang Tianming nodded, still with a constipated expression, and added after thinking for a while,
"Gu Daoyou, please hurry up!"

Gu Shi nodded,

"Thank you!" Huang Tianming nodded, and disappeared with a group of ghost officials in a puff of smoke...

Gu Shiyi and the other two stood there, looking at each other.
"Let's go back to Tianyi Gate first!"

Gu Shiyi turned into a ball of evil wind and rushed back to Tianyi Gate without saying a word. When he arrived at Tianyi Gate, Gu Shiyi asked Lao Ma and Wangyue to return to the secret realm, and brought Wang Xuying out. He did not alarm others and went straight to the residence of Grand Elder Jin. When he approached and released his breath, Grand Elder Jin immediately sensed it and appeared in person. He was also a little surprised to see Gu Shiyi.

"Why did Gu Xiaoyou come back? Where is Yanlan?"

Gu Shiyi was straightforward. He stepped forward and saluted.

"Senior, I'm afraid we will have to travel far this time..."

Here, they told the story of how they were punished by the Heavenly Dao in this world, but they didn't mention the space magic weapon. They only said that they had refined an extraordinary elixir. Pu Yanlan was envied by the Heavenly Dao, so she hid her aura and didn't dare to show up easily. Elder Jin Taishang was not surprised to hear this, and he sighed and said,
"I originally thought that you would not encounter this situation until you ascended to heaven. I didn't expect it to happen so early..."

After a pause, he said again,
"I have also noticed this situation. My soul was injured a long time ago, and there is no hope for me to ascend to heaven in this life, so I devoted myself to cultivating my disciples. When the disciples who came to this world with us were promoted to a higher realm, the punishment they received was more than twice as strong as that of the disciples in this world. After thinking about it, this old man thought that perhaps it was because we are outsiders and should not have been affected by the opportunities of this world. We took the opportunities, and the cultivators in this world lost opportunities. Naturally, the heavens would punish us twice as much..."

After saying that, he sighed,

"Low-level disciples in the sect can take elixirs or rely on the protection of their masters and elders to survive the heavenly tribulation, but in Yanlan's situation, even I can't do anything. If you have a way to leave this world, see if you can go back to your original world. The heavenly tribulation there should be much smaller!"

Gu Shi nodded,

"As you command, old man!"

Then he took out several bottles of pills.
"Senior, this is the elixir Yan Lan made for our sect. We don't know when we can return. Please take care of yourself, senior and all the fellow disciples!"

Elder Jin sighed and nodded.
"The Dao is ruthless, but fellow disciples are loyal. You guys go ahead. I will take Xueying by my side and teach her personally!"

"Thank you, senior!"

Gu Shiyi bowed deeply to the Supreme Elder Jin, then turned around and rode a gust of evil wind to leave Tianyi Sect.

After leaving Tianyi Gate, she entered the secret realm and told the story of returning to Tianyi Gate and meeting Huang Tianming on the way. Pu Yanlan said in deep thought,

"I guess it's because we violated the laws of heaven, and the underworld in this world has probably sensed it..."

They probably have good relations with the underworld in this world, so after the changes occurred, Huang Tianming gave some advice, and Gu Shiyi also guessed that this was probably the case.
"If that's the case, I'll go to the underworld to ask..."

So she returned to Liuguang City and went to see Huang Tianming. Huang Tianming was surprised to see that she came back so quickly.
"That's the case. I will immediately take Fellow Daoist Gu to see Brother Cui..."

Gu Shiyi was familiar with the hell again. This time, she was led directly to the outside of Yama Palace. Cui Renyuan came out immediately after hearing the news. When he saw Gu Shiyi, he clasped his fists and smiled.
"Friend Gu, long time no see!"

Gu Shiyi also laughed.
"Is Brother Cui well?"

Brother Cui Ren smiled and said,
"I am so busy that I don't know what I am busy with. I am not as carefree as Fellow Daoist Gu!"

Gu Shiyi followed suit and said,
"What are you talking about? Isn't this just causing trouble? I have to ask Brother Cui about this."

Cui Renyuan was stunned when he heard this, then smiled again, with a strange look on his face,

"Fellow Daoist Gu is still so straightforward, but this matter... I am also a lowly official, so I dare not speak nonsense. Why don't you go into the palace and meet Lord Yama?"

Gu Shiyi raised his eyebrows after hearing this.
"I can actually see Lord Yama... I'm afraid a small figure like me wouldn't dare to enter the Yama Palace!"

Brother Cui Ren laughed.
"Others may not be able to do it, but Fellow Daoist Gu can!"

"Oh……"

Gu Shiyi raised his eyebrows. Does Cui Renyuan have such a big face?
It seems like he's doing pretty well!

She thought she was benefiting from Choi In-won's help, but Choi In-won saw through her thoughts and smiled mysteriously.
"Friend Gu, please come in!"

Gu Shiyi was confused, but since he was already here, wouldn’t it seem like a coward if he didn’t go in?
He nodded immediately and followed Cui Renyuan in with a smile.

The decoration in Yama Hall was straight out of the underworld. The white soul-calling banners were blown around by the cold wind. There were human skins of all sizes hanging on the four walls. There was also a nine-story chandelier above the head, all made of human bones. It was swaying and flickering, and the light was green. The high seat above was also made of human bones, and the base below was made of human skulls. The big black eye sockets were staring straight at the person in the hall. There was also a big drum covered with human skin and a drumstick made of human bones...

Gee!

Gu Shiyi looked around. With this kind of decoration style, if a ghost entered this room, it would be able to confess things like wetting the bed when he was three years old or eating secretly when he was five years old!
