Hell Emperor.

Chapter 293 Shura Jie - Concerns
Seeing the image projected by the wheel crown, the master of the Golden Wheel Palace was furious: "Who on earth is so cruel that he slaughtered all my disciples and didn't take me seriously at all! If I let this matter go, wouldn't it make the other palace masters laugh at me? I will make that person regret it!"

Ye Jie frowned. Although he didn't know what happened, the person in the picture was indeed Xia Wei. How could Ye Jie forget Xia Wei's appearance? Even though she was now full of anger and hatred, not as strong and moving as before, Ye Jie still recognized her at a glance. That person was Xia Wei.

Ye Jie was very careful and did not show in front of the Golden Wheel Palace Master that he was familiar with the man in the picture. He just said, "I saw that the man is very powerful. It seems that the Golden Wheel Palace Master has encountered trouble this time. If the mission is delayed because of this, I am afraid that His Highness Moro will be unhappy."

The Lord of the Golden Wheel Palace took a deep breath. Although he really wanted to find those thieves immediately and let them learn a lesson from his methods, unfortunately the task assigned by the Lord of the Mo Luo Palace prevented him from doing so.

The master of the Golden Wheel Palace is a true immortal. Although he has immortal energy, it is more troublesome for him to move. He cannot move around with the shrinking stone like ordinary ghosts. If he wants to find those thieves, he must go there himself, starting from the Golden Wheel Palace, driving the magic weapon, and crossing half of the Dongsheng Shenzhou. It is unknown how much time it will take to go there and back.

If the mission is delayed and the Lord of the Demon Palace is unhappy, that is definitely not what the Lord of the Golden Wheel Palace wants to see. All the tasks in the Golden Wheel Palace should be given priority to the Demon Palace, and important things should not be missed for the sake of momentary pleasure.

He took a deep breath, and finally found the original messenger, and said, "Let Jin Sheng and Jin Tai take down those offenders!"

The ghost took the order and immediately passed the news down. Soon, two rays of light shot up into the sky, and all the wheels in the Golden Wheel Palace spun in unison, as if they were respectfully bidding farewell to the two people nominated by the Palace Master.

Ye Jie's face tensed up, and then he asked inconspicuously: "I saw that the man is very powerful. Can the two people sent by the Palace Master really complete the task?"

The Lord of the Golden Wheel Palace showed a reassuring look: "Don't worry, Jin Sheng is my direct disciple. He has practiced with me for many years and has already reached the second level of immortality. His strength is extraordinary. Jin Tai is even a reincarnated spirit child with seven talents. Although he has not yet become an immortal, it is a common thing for him to challenge higher levels. He is far beyond the reach of ordinary people."

After a pause, the eyes of the Golden Wheel Palace Master also showed a bit of peace: "Everyone in the palace said that these two are most likely to succeed me as the Golden Wheel Palace Master. I am very relieved to give this mission to them. Just treat it as a test for the two of them. Whoever performs better in this mission will be qualified to succeed the Palace Master."

Realizing the strength of Jin Sheng and Jin Tai, Ye Jie's eyes narrowed slightly. In the past, the strength of these two would be enough to shock him deeply. Fortunately, his strength has already been greatly improved with the help of the seven stitching pages, so he is not afraid of them.

However, Ye Jie may not be afraid of those two people, but he is not sure about his family members. If they encounter any trouble, it will be terrible.

While Ye Jie was thinking, the Lord of the Golden Wheel Palace waved his hand and said, "My two distinguished guests, please take a good rest in the Golden Wheel Palace these few days. After seven days, follow me to the Wushen Palace to carry out the mission. For His Highness Moro, this mission must not fail!"

Ye Jie was a little worried and asked, "Does the Golden Wheel Palace have any backup for this mission? If we fail, how are we going to escape? Master of the Golden Wheel Palace, who in the palace is responsible for picking us up when we evacuate?"

Compared to the Lord of the Golden Wheel Palace, Ye Jie obviously has more concerns.

Not to mention how to complete the assassination and what to do if it fails, just how to escape after the assassination is completed and not be captured by the people of the Witch Temple is also a difficult task.

Once the Lord of the Witch God Temple is attacked, the ghost officials in the temple will immediately close the Underworld Formation to cut off the possibility of any ghost using the Shrinking Stone to move away. At that time, if you want to escape, you can only rely on your own abilities.

With the help of the seven stitching pages, Ye Jie's strength is enough to surpass the third-level immortal, but he is suppressed by the equality formation and cannot exert power above the third level. He may still be defeated by other third-level enemies.

When Ye Jie thought of the task assigned by the Lord of the Moro Palace, he felt a headache. He didn't want to take on this task, but Moro didn't give him the power to refuse, nor did he tell him what to do specifically. He just said that everything was left to the Lord of the Golden Wheel Palace to arrange.

In desperation, Ye Jie had to ask the Lord of the Golden Wheel Palace for specific matters. If the assassination was completed but the person couldn't escape, that would be a huge loss.

The assassination mission cannot be neglected. Before the mission begins, all preparations must be made and various emergencies must be taken into consideration. The choice of evacuation route, how to escape in case of failure and exposure, what to do in case of an emergency... all kinds of situations must be planned in detail. If the timing is not right or the risk is too great, you must stop for the time being and look for another opportunity.

Unfortunately, the answer from the Lord of the Golden Wheel Palace surprised Ye Jie: "I will complete this mission with my life, and I will not fail. Only in this way can I live up to His Highness Moruo's trust. There is no backup plan, and no escape plan. No matter what happens, the mission will not be stopped halfway until the Lord of the Wushen Palace dies."

Ye Jie coughed dryly: "But if that's the case, what if something happens to you? What will happen to the other people in the Golden Wheel Palace? They can't live without the Palace Master."

The Golden Wheel Palace Master had expected this and showed a relieved look: "Don't worry, after that, one of Jin Sheng and Jin Taizhong will succeed the Golden Wheel Palace Master."

After hearing this, Ye Jie was very upset. It turned out that he had never thought about leaving alive and had already chosen his successor long ago.

What confused Ye Jie was that even ants still had the desire to survive, but the Lord of the Golden Wheel Palace had none of that. When he mentioned the Lord of the Moluo Palace, his eyes were full of fanaticism. Even if his soul was scattered or he died, it did not matter. In order to complete the task, he would do anything.

Ye Jie was also very puzzled by the strange reaction of the Lord of the Golden Wheel Palace. As the Lord of the Yama Palace, who was above ten thousand people, he should have been as proud and conceited as the other palace masters. However, he was now servile to the Lord of the Moluo Palace. The fanaticism that came from his heart was what surprised Ye Jie.

Even if he had to succumb to the pressure of Moro and allow himself to be driven around by him due to his lack of strength, he should have prioritized saving his own life. He was even willing to sacrifice his life. Could it be that the Lord of the Golden Wheel Palace had some leverage over the Lord of the Moro Palace?
Although he was quite speechless, Ye Jie still advised: "I believe that Lord Mo Luo will also know about Lord Jinlun's loyalty, but you are Lord Yama after all. Why don't you cherish your life? Why do you want to bury it in vain during the mission?"

In response, the Lord of the Golden Wheel Palace laughed out loud: "Death will not drown me, His Majesty Moro will awaken me again. When the ten main accounts gather together and the Emperor of the Underworld appears, I will return from death and receive the promised eternal life."

Ye Jie's expression changed slightly, and he seemed to realize something: "What you said, could it be..." The Lord of the Golden Wheel Palace looked at him deeply: "His Highness Moro will not treat any meritorious person unfairly, you also know, right?"

At the end, there was a hint of sharpness in the eyes of the Lord of the Golden Wheel Palace. That extremely sharp look pierced Ye Jie's soul, as if every secret in him was seen through by the Lord of the Golden Wheel Palace. He even knew the secret that he had once lost his soul and was then reawakened by the Lord of the Moluo Palace.

Now Ye Jie finally understood why the Lord of the Golden Wheel Palace was so calm. Even though he knew that assassinating the Lord of the Witch God Palace was extremely dangerous and that he could lose his life if he was not careful, he still looked indifferent and even chose his successor early on. It turned out that he had already placed his hopes on the resurrection of the Lord of the Moluo Palace.

Ye Jie had personally felt the power that could revive ghosts, and naturally understood how attractive it was to other ghosts. When the threat of being torn apart was no longer present, they had no worries in their hearts, just like the Lord of the Golden Wheel Palace in front of him, who was willing to give everything to complete the task.

Ye Jie was silent for a moment, then asked: "How do you know that I was resurrected by His Highness Moro?"

"Your aura is significantly different from that of ordinary ghosts. Only those who have returned again have such an aura." The Lord of the Golden Wheel Palace did not hide it and said it directly, "Her Highness Moruo is watching you. She knows everything you do. You'd better not have any other thoughts, otherwise, your end will be very miserable."

Ye Jie took a deep breath. Things seemed to be more troublesome than he had imagined. Even without the Shura Mask, it would not be an easy task to escape. Unless he exchanged it for another main account, he would have to stay in the Demon Palace forever.

The Lord of the Golden Wheel Palace can disregard life and death and focus on seizing the main account, but Ye Jie cannot do so.

Especially after seeing his family in the scene just now, Ye Jie's determination became even stronger. He didn't want to lose his life in vain just to complete the mission. He wanted to survive and find a way to return to his family. How could he fail in this mission?

If his soul were to be scattered again, Ye Jie was not sure whether the Lord of the Demon Palace would go to great lengths to resurrect him.

Speaking of which, until now, Ye Jie still felt a little confused. Why did Moro resurrect himself instead of handing over the main account to her Guangwang Palace Master? Whether in terms of strength or the power of the subordinates, Guangwang Palace Master was much stronger than him at the time. Moro Palace Master should have resurrected Guangwang Palace Master, but she did not do so, and gave the opportunity to resurrect to herself.

After thinking about it, Ye Jie still had no clear conclusion. He just thought that his action of handing over the main account to Moro in Tianxuan Palace won her favor, and this gave him the chance to come back to life.

Now that he had the chance to come back from the dead, Ye Jie should cherish it. How could he waste it? No matter what, he could not agree with the actions of the Lord of the Golden Wheel Palace.

Since the Golden Wheel Palace is unreliable, Ye Jie must find another way to survive this assassination mission. Otherwise, he will definitely regret his rashness.

After bidding farewell to the Master of the Golden Wheel Palace and leaving the main hall, Ye Jie reached into his arms, his fingertips touching the seven stitching pages in his arms.

The seven stitched pages are Ye Jie's greatest support, and also the trump card that makes him different from other Shuras and enables him to fight all the way to this day.

Since the Lord of the Golden Wheel Palace is unreliable, Ye Jie can only place his hope on the stitched pages. These seemingly unremarkable torn pages actually contain infinite power. He can only hope that he can survive this disaster safely.

Combining the power of the seven main books of life and death, the seven stitched pages can not only modify the files of the skills, but also the files of the innate magical powers.

Previously, when Ye Jie was invited to a banquet by Moro, he also obtained the innate magical powers of the owner of some rare ingredients through the use of the ingredients.

Those plates of dragon liver and phoenix marrow, their owners in their lifetime were all famous divine beasts and demon kings, but in the end they all became meals in front of Moro. If he hadn't been invited, it would not have been easy for Ye Jie to eat those delicacies, let alone collect his innate magical powers from them.

Ye Jie had not studied the various talents shown in the magical power atlas before. Now that he had come to the Golden Wheel Palace, with the mission imminent, Ye Jie also thought of the power therein. He only hoped that the extremely mysterious talents and magical powers could help him with his current predicament.

At this moment, a puzzled voice suddenly came from Ye Jie's ear:
"Was my eyes dazzled just now? The person in the picture is clearly Shura Hong, and even Youdie appears in a corner of the picture. It's not a coincidence no matter how you look at it. Don't tell me that's just a person who looks like Shura Hong."

Lin Hanyan looked confused. She couldn't understand why she saw Shura Hong in the picture revealed by the Lord of the Golden Wheel Palace.

It was obvious that not long ago, Shura Hong regained his freedom and left the Moluo Palace. He never continued to carry out the mission of the Moluo Palace. How could he appear there?
Even if we say that it was just a person who looked very similar to Shura Hong, it doesn't make sense at all. Even Youdie appeared, so it was clearly Shura Hong himself.

Thinking of this, Lin Hanyan had no choice but to look at Ye Jie with a confused look. Her intuition told her that Ye Jie must know the answer to the question: "Brother Jie, do you know who the girl who killed the monk is?"

Because of her understanding of Ye Jie, Lin Hanyan keenly discovered the problem. Although Ye Jie tried hard not to show it, when he saw the girl in the picture, his aura changed, as if he was a completely different person. Therefore, Lin Hanyan's tentative words became cautious.

In this regard, Ye Jie said helplessly: "She is my apprentice..."
