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

Chapter 63 Poverty is unbearable, even ghosts can't stand it!

The entire Yumin Street seemed to be isolated, and all sounds from the outside world disappeared!

Do not!
It's not just external voices.

The howling wind that had been blowing just moments before suddenly stopped.

Outside the funeral home.

The headless ghost leading the horse was struck as if by lightning, and stumbled back three steps!
The armored general on horseback twitched his brow a few times, and the shadowy figures in the misty aura behind him also paused.

The headless ghost was the first to react; its eyes widened... no, its gaze widened!
Staring intently at Chen Yang, he exclaimed in disbelief, "Impossible...aren't you a funeral broadcaster? Who are you?"

It was considered a formidable opponent in "Red Mountain City," an extremely powerful "ghost," but when facing Chen Yang at this moment, it felt an indescribable sense of oppression!
"A funeral broadcaster?"

Chen Yang frowned: "What do you mean?"

The headless ghost cautiously explained, "Your family owns a funeral home, so we all call you the funeral broadcaster."

Chen Yang: "You guys?"

The headless ghost's voice became even softer: "Many of our brothers in Red Mountain City love watching your live streams, but you don't usually stream."

"........."

Good guy!
No wonder twenty or thirty viewers would flood in the moment he started his live stream, staying from the beginning until the end, but rarely sending comments. Chen Yang even wondered if he had bought bots sometime during the stream...

Only now do I realize that those audience members weren't human!

Chen Yang, holding a luminous lantern in his right hand and a soul-locking chain in his left, said calmly, "Although you are a fan of this god, your disrespectful words deserve punishment!"

brush!
With a wave of his left hand, the Soul-Locking Chain flew out and instantly bound the headless ghost tightly.

With another reach out and grab, the headless ghost rolled down to his feet.

No matter how much it struggled, it could not display any of its abilities, nor could it escape the bindings of the Soul-Locking Chains.

boom!
The armored ghost general finally couldn't sit still any longer.

He leaped off his horse, his already imposing figure appearing even more robust and tall after donning the armor. He said in a deep voice, "Who exactly are you? Even if my men have made a mistake, it is not for you to punish them!"

"Who am I?"

"Humph!"

Chen Yang snorted coldly, and a powerful divine soul force emanated from him!

His spiritual realm had already reached the "Day Wanderer Realm," and with the added blessing of his identity as the [Night Wanderer God], his spiritual power was several times stronger at night. A simple "mental shock" was enough to make the Ghost General's expression change drastically, giving him the illusion of carrying a mountain!

Because his body is a "yin body" formed from yin energy, under this spiritual pressure, the "yin body" is on the verge of collapse!
The ghostly figures behind him, which were faintly visible, all knelt down under the pressure of this divine power!
In Chen Yang's hand, the luminous lantern emitted a bright yellow light. The light burned the eyes of all the ghosts who looked at it, causing them unbearable pain.

"I am a ghost official of the underworld, a night-roaming deity who walks among mortals!"

Chen Yang said, "It's one thing for you evil spirits to hide in Red Mountain City, but you dare to parade around in the city and be insolent in front of me... Your crimes deserve to be punished!"

He gave a slight tremor to his right hand—

Wow!

A ball of ghostly fire flew out from the "night-lit lantern" and landed towards the Ghost General.

huh~~~
Just then, a gust of cold wind blew by, extinguishing the "ghost fire".

"Mr. Chen, please be lenient."

Two figures emerged from the darkness; they were Ali and Ruyi.

"Princess!"

The Ghost General was overjoyed and immediately knelt down on one knee to pay his respects.

"Greetings, Your Highness!" the other ghosts cried out in unison, even the headless ghost bound by the soul-locking chains howled, "Princess...save me!"

"Ok?"

Chen Yang was somewhat surprised.

It wasn't unexpected that Ali would suddenly appear.

In fact, he had long suspected that "Ali" was a person... but the title "princess" surprised him.

Shouldn't it be "Empress"?
Could it be... that she is the daughter of the Goddess of Red Mountain?

With a thought flashing through his mind, Chen Yang smiled and said, "I never expected that Miss Ali would have such a great background... The princess of Red Mountain City, the dignified Ghost King, actually living in the human world and even coming to my little shop to do business with me."

In fact, Ali was even more horrified.

Underworld officials, night-roaming gods!

She had long realized that this "Boss Chen" was no ordinary person, but she never expected him to have such a powerful background!
She forced a smile and said, "If I had known Mr. Chen's identity earlier, I wouldn't have dared to come and do business with you even if you gave me a million times more courage!"

What ghost in this world wouldn't be terrified when it sees the underworld officials?

Even the Ghost King...

A ghost king can rule over a territory of hundreds of miles in the human world.

But for the underworld...

The Ghost King is most likely just an ant that is slightly stronger than a "wandering ghost". Don't even mention the Great Emperor Yama. In the underworld, the Ghost King is not even qualified to carry the shoes of the judge or the underworld general.

But these were, after all, citizens of "Red Mountain City," so Ali could only bite the bullet and say, "Boss Chen, please calm down... My men just hadn't seen me for a long time and were so eager to find me that they made such a big fuss. They didn't disturb the people on their way to Wu City!"

She gracefully performed a curtsy and said, "Please, Mr. Chen, be lenient... I will definitely repay you in the future."

"No need."

Chen Yang waved his hand and said calmly, "The Yin and Yang are separated, the road to the Yellow Springs is cut off, and the souls of the dead in the human world cannot enter the underworld. I will not pursue your responsibility for lingering in the human world."

"But humans and ghosts are different. Since you have come to my doorstep to cause trouble, I cannot sit idly by... otherwise it would be dereliction of duty!"

Seeing Chen Yang's firm attitude, Ali had no choice but to lower his stance and plead for leniency, hoping that Chen Yang could show some mercy. He said, "Boss Chen, for the past ten years, I have disciplined my men, and the people of Hongshan City have never done anything evil or harmful... I hope Boss Chen will be lenient and give them a way out."

"Who said I was going to kill them?"

There are so many ghosts in front of us, each with a great deal of merit. It would be such a waste to kill them.

"As the lord of Red Mountain City, are you simply going to stand by and watch your people continue to linger in the mortal realm, becoming wandering ghosts?"

Chen Yang said, "Didn't you ever think about sending them to the underworld to be reincarnated and live a new life?"

"what?"

Before Ali could answer, the headless ghost bound by the soul-locking chains spoke first, exclaiming in surprise, "Host, is this true? If I go to the underworld, will I be able to avoid being beheaded after reincarnation?"

Chen Yang's face darkened, and he snapped, "Call me Lord Night Wanderer!"

Reincarnation?

Live a new life?
A ghost, almost crying with emotion, choked out, "If we could be reincarnated, who would want to be a ghost in the human world... We have long been forgotten. Since we awoke, we have never seen incense or paper money. Even being a ghost is miserable. This kind of life is worse than being dead!"

"Lord Night Wanderer, I am willing to enter the underworld to be punished, only asking for a chance to be reincarnated!"

Chen Yang: "..."

Good guy!
poverty……

It's absolutely terrifying! Even ghosts couldn't stand it!
