You, a living person, are telling me I've served in the underworld for ten years?

Chapter 129 My father has only been gone a few days, and he's already a master?
Niu Si, the River God of Qingshui River, was a poor man who had been a bachelor for half his life and died without ever getting married.

Although he had been the River God for a long time and seen many things, his words, actions and thoughts had changed a lot, but his appearance was still that of a wretched old man from his previous life.

At this moment, however, the old man, who was surrounded by several "fierce ghosts" who were overseeing the kiln and dozens of ghostly soldiers who were guarding the kiln, stood tall and proud, without the slightest fear on his face!
He even had a somewhat arrogant and bossy attitude!
Our family is the River God!

Standing behind him is Lord Chen, the Daily Inspector and Inspector of the Underworld, who represents the laws and regulations of the underworld. Let alone a group of fierce ghost soldiers, what are ghost kings and ghost immortals?
That's the source of our confidence!

Another point is the difference in status!

Although Niu Si's position as a deity is small, he is a legitimate River God who has been officially appointed by imperial decree. He is a deity of the underworld and a civil servant of the netherworld. He has some contempt for these evil ghosts and spirits that cannot be seen in the light of day!

Moreover, his strength far surpasses that of these construction ghosts and guardian soldiers.

His body was filled with a mixture of yin energy and divine power, and a water curtain suddenly formed. The water curtain then transformed into streams of water arrows, which sent the surrounding Yin soldiers flying!

"Be bold!"

"What kind of bullshit River God? Never heard of him!"

"Dare to trespass on the territory of the Demon-Slaying Immortal? Even the Heavenly King himself will die!"

A group of ghostly soldiers were about to surround them, but they were stopped by a burly and tall overseer ghost.

Its aura was stronger than the other overseer ghosts, and it seemed to be a foreman. It looked Niu Si up and down and asked, "Are you the River God of the Clear Water River?"

Niu Si glanced at it out of the corner of his eye and said indifferently, "It is this god."

"very good!"

The foreman ghost said, "River God of the Clear Water River, come with me! The Dispersing Calamity Ghost Immortal invites you!"

To be honest, the words "Ghost Immortal" put a lot of pressure on Niu Si, but he wasn't afraid and said calmly, "Lead the way!"

"please!"

The vengeful foreman turned and walked towards a kiln burning with raging flames.

Niu Si frowned.

Water can extinguish fire, but conversely, if the fire is strong enough, it can also cause water to evaporate.

The raging fire inside the cave gave Niu Si the feeling that he could be burned to ashes, but he did not back down and stepped into the cave.

The world was spinning again.

Inside the cave dwelling, there is a hidden world.

A ghost engulfed in raging flames appeared in Niu Si's field of vision. It had a single horn on its head, dark red eyes, and a string of beads the size of a washbasin around its neck. Upon closer inspection, one would discover that the beads were actually skulls!
It was a full ten meters tall, looking down at Niu Si, its dark red eyes revealing a hint of surprise.

"Are you the River God of the Clear Water River?"

“Strange… After that incident in the underworld, the path between Yin and Yang was severed. In addition, a major event occurred in the human world afterward, when a human expert used great supernatural powers to suppress the dragon veins of the human world, causing the human world to completely enter the Dharma-ending Age.”

"Even someone as powerful as myself suffered a severe backlash, leaving only eighteen thoughts dormant... How could you, a mere River God of the Clear Water River with no followers, have managed to survive until now?"

Niu Si sneered and said, "This god indeed has no incense offerings and no great abilities. The temple collapsed more than five hundred years ago, and the golden body was also smashed."

"However, I was lucky enough to be valued by the Inspector and entrusted with important responsibilities again."

………………

What Niu Si saw and heard was something Chen Yang, who lived outside Dingjiagou Village, could not "see".

He only saw Niu Si step into the village, going deeper and deeper, his body radiating yin energy and rippling water, until one moment, Niu Si's "figure" suddenly vanished without a trace.

"Master Chen!"

Wang Lin and Cao Zepan also witnessed this scene and hurriedly asked, "Master Chen, that River God... could he be gone?"

"Although the position of the River God of the Clear Water River is small, he has at least entered the ranks of the gods in the underworld. Who would dare to kill the River God?"

Chen Yang smiled and said, "Wait a minute, he'll be out soon."

Niu Si was bestowed the title by Chen Yang. His name was written in the "Book of Yin and Yang Good and Evil" by Chen Yang using his divine soul power as a pen. Naturally, one can perceive his state through the "Book of Yin and Yang Good and Evil".

as predicted.

Less than three minutes had passed—

hum!
Niu Si's figure suddenly reappeared in the center of the village.

From Chen Yang's perspective, Niu Si glanced behind him, then, though appearing slightly flustered, feigned composure and slowly walked out of Dingjiagou Village, until he saw Chen Yang just outside the village...

Pfft!
Niu Si's legs went weak, and he knelt at Chen Yang's feet, wailing, "Your Excellency Inspector, I... I thought I would never see you again!"

He was indeed frightened, but he exaggerated a bit.

Chen Yang didn't expose him, and said calmly, "Get up... Tell me, what's the situation inside?"

Niu Si got up and told Chen Yang everything he had seen and heard.

"The Dispersing Calamity Ghost Immortal?"

"Dispersing calamity?"

Chen Yang muttered to himself twice and said, "Yang means disaster or calamity. It seems that this 'Dispelling Calamity Ghost Immortal' is not an auspicious thing... Didn't you convey my meaning?"

Niu Si said, "Your Excellency, I have fully conveyed your message to the Scattered Calamity Ghost Immortal, ordering him to surrender, but... but..."

Chen Yang: "Just what?"

Niu Si: "The Fiend Fairy said that the path between Yin and Yang is not open, so there is no inspector in the human world... It... It even told you, sir, to get lost."

What the hell!
Chen Yang was so angry he laughed!
"If the tiger doesn't show its power, people will think I'm a sick cat!"

After the battle at Jinlong Mountain in Ganfu where the Flying Ghost King was eliminated, Chen Yang thought his reputation would spread throughout the "circle of ghosts and monsters" in the Great Xia Dynasty. However, he never expected that there would be such an ignorant thing jumping around in his own little corner of Wucheng City.

Chen Yang took out his phone and called Yang Shuai.

"Notify Gu Jinghui, Li Ali, and Ruyi to bring Cat Master... to Tongxin County!"

"Is another war about to break out?"

Upon hearing this, Yang Shuai became excited: "Don't worry, we will come as quickly as possible!"

Fighting battles means earning merit and making money... With Chen Yang as my powerful backer, as long as I have enough merit, I'm not afraid of not getting promoted.
Hang up the phone.

In just over twenty minutes—

In the distance, a dark cloud drifted rapidly towards the horizon.

As the cold wind howled, Li Ali descended from the sky.

At this moment, she was wearing silver armor, and her whole being... no, it should be called a ghost!

The ghost exuded a heroic and dashing aura.

Beside Li Ali was Ruyi, dressed in a red dress. As soon as Ruyi landed, she said, "Your Excellency Inspector, which blind fool dared to anger you... Say a word, and I will kill it right now!"

Chen Yang smiled and said, "No rush, let's wait until everyone is here."

Ten minutes later, Gu Jinghui and Yang Shuai arrived together.

Gu Jinghui toyed with the "Mountain-Suppressing Seal" in his hand, glanced at Dingjiagou Village in front of him... He was now the Mountain God of Helan Mountain, and his perception of things like the mountain's energy was particularly sensitive. With a little perception, he noticed the strangeness of the village in front of him and said, "A ghostly realm?"

Chen Yang nodded. "This village is covered by a ghostly realm, and the villagers and livestock are almost turned into ceramics... The source of the ghostly realm is a ghost immortal who escaped from the eighteenth level of hell to the human world, named San Yang."

“The location of this village was actually a kiln site a thousand years ago.”

"After a major earthquake, the kiln was buried underground... The foremen, guards and kiln workers in the kiln all became dead."

I gave a brief explanation of the situation in "Dingjiagou Village".

"Your purpose in coming here is to protect the ceramic dolls that were transformed from the more than 1800 villagers of Dingjiagou Village, and to deal with those overseers and guards... As for dispersing the evil spirits, leave that to me."

Gu Jinghui, Yang Shuai, Li Ali, Ruyi, Cat Master, and He Bo Niu Si all accepted the order.

Chen Yang said, "By the way... Little Fatty doesn't need to go. This ghostly realm will porcelainize your physical body."

Cat Lord was naturally unwilling to miss the opportunity to gain merit, so he immediately stood up and swaggered over to Wang Lin, speaking in human language: "Little Wang... I'm going to fight, so this body will be entrusted to you. Please guard this body for me."

brush!
A chilling wind blew out from Cat Lord's body.

The yin wind landed and transformed back into a tabby cat.

However, this tabby cat is not made of flesh and blood, but is formed from divine power and spiritual energy.

It's not just Cat Lord.

Yang Shuai also took off his "painted skin": "Xiao Wang... keep an eye on my clothes for me. Hey, be careful not to scratch me. This garment of mine was made from the skin that a great demon personally peeled off. It's priceless!"

He strode into "Dingjiagou Village," carrying the Soul-Locking Chain in his right hand and the Mourning Stick in his left.

Next was Gu Jinghui.

Gu Jinghui summoned the "Mountain-Suppressing Seal," a small seal a few inches tall that hovered above his head, emitting a faint, hazy, earthy-yellow halo that enveloped his entire body.

Li Ali also has a soul-locking chain, which Chen Yang gave to her.

Only Ruyi possessed no magical treasures.

Chen Yang summoned the "Night-illuminating Lantern" and handed it to Ruyi: "This is a night-illuminating lantern, a magical artifact that only the Night Wanderers of the Underworld can use. Your cultivation is weak to begin with, so I'll lend you this lantern for protection for now."

Ruyi was carrying a lantern and was extremely happy.

Chen Yang summoned the Yin God, whose spirit materialized and strode towards Dingjiagou Village.

As they entered the realm of the spirits, a dizzying sensation swept over them, and the village vanished, replaced by a brightly lit kiln.

"Foreman, foreman!"

A ghostly guard ran towards a cave dwelling, shouting, "Foreman, it's terrible! That River God is back again... and he's brought a lot of helpers with him!"

Wow!

Inside the cave, the vengeful ghost foreman burst forth.

He exuded a chilling aura and roared, "Old man, you're asking for trouble... Are you looking for death?"

brush!
He was greeted by a dark light.

But Yang Shuai unleashed the Soul-Locking Chain.

The poor foreman was buried underground after his death. By the time he was controlled by the "Dispelling Ghost Immortal", the path between Yin and Yang had been severed. He had never seen the soul-locking chains of the underworld ghost messengers.

Caught off guard, he was tightly bound by the Soul-Locking Chains.

"receive!"

Yang Shuai yanked the chain, pulling the vengeful foreman back. He stepped on the foreman's face and sneered, "You dog! You dare bark at my brother, the Daily Patrol Captain and Inspector of the Underworld, right in front of you?"

Brush brush brush brush!

Li Ali, Ruyi, Hebo Niu Si, and Mountain God Gu Jinghui all flashed out and landed around the ceramic dolls.

Their cultivation levels erupted simultaneously, causing the entire Ghost God Domain to tremble slightly.

Another giant cat, ten meters tall, swooped down from the sky and swallowed the dozens of ghostly guards whole in one gulp, shouting, "Where is the Dispelling Calamity Ghost Immortal?"

"How dare you! My esteemed Inspector is right here! Why don't you come out and kneel down to pay your respects?"

With a flick of its tail, it sent another overseer flying.

Curious about the power of the night-light lantern, Ruyi flicked her wrist, and a ball of green "ghost fire" flew out, igniting the overseer ghost, which let out a shrill scream.

"Humph!"

Just then, from inside a cave engulfed in raging flames, the cold snort of the Demon Immortal of Dispelling Calamities echoed out.

A ten-meter-tall, ethereal ghost stepped out of the cave.

With each step he took, the earth seemed to shake. His pair of dark red eyes swept over Chen Yang, Yang Shuai, Gu Jinghui, Ruyi, Li Ali, and Cat Master, revealing a hint of undisguised surprise.

"Mountain God... River God? Ghost Messenger?"

"Impossible! Could the path between the living and the dead have been opened?"

Whether the path between Yin and Yang is open or not is not a reason for you to cause harm in the human world.

Chen Yang said calmly, "Dissipating Calamity Ghost Immortal, your escape from the eighteenth level of hell to the mortal realm is already a grave crime, and now you're committing evil deeds in the mortal realm... Hmm?"

Before he could finish his sentence, his expression suddenly shifted, and he felt a wave of exhaustion wash over him, an overwhelming weariness washing over him.

Chen Yang was very polite and said, "Immortal San Yang, I'm very sorry... Lord Cui has something to discuss with me, let's talk later."

The next moment, Chen Yang slowly closed his eyes.

When he opened his eyes again, he found himself in that familiar place where yin and yang met. The blood moon still hung in the sky, and the ground was shrouded in mist.

Two figures stood in the mist.

Lord Cui and...

Ok?
Chen Yang initially thought that it was Lord Cui bringing Old Chen to pull him "into the dream" again, but upon closer inspection, he discovered that the man was wearing a purple official robe, with a leopard-like head, piercing eyes, an iron face, and a bushy beard. His appearance was very dignified, but... ugly!
With just one glance, a legendary name involuntarily surfaced in Chen Yang's mind—

"Could it be Zhong Kui, the Demon-Exorcising True Lord and one of the Four Judges of the Underworld?"

With a thought flashing through his mind, Chen Yang stepped forward to meet them.

Lord Cui smiled and said, "Little Chen has arrived..."

"Come, come, Xiao Chen, let me introduce you."

"This is Zhong Kui, the chief judge of the Punishment Department... Judge Zhong, and this is Commandant Chen."

Confirming his suspicions, Chen Yang quickly bowed and said, "Your subordinate Chen Yang greets the Prefect and the True Lord."

Zhong Kui looked Chen Yang up and down, and thinking that he would need his help later, he praised him, "Not bad... handsome and dignified, no wonder Lord Cui values ​​him as a promising young man, no wonder he is the son of Master Chen."

"???"

Chen Yang was taken aback.

It's understandable that Lord Cui values ​​talented individuals...

What does "Master Chen's son" mean?
My dad's only been gone a few days, and he's already acting like a lord??
