Terrifying Heavens: I'll directly worship the Black Law of Fengdu!

Chapter 83 Otherworldly Ghost Messenger
boom! ! !
Ayou felt a gust of wind rush past, and when he realized what was happening, he quickly turned around to look.

Li Xuan and A Jiu were already engaged in combat!
Ajiu was surrounded by ghostly energy. In addition, as a demonic cultivator, her strength had increased dramatically. Her fingernails were pitch black, and every move she made was a killing blow, aiming to kill Li Xuan in one strike.

While Li Xuan was speaking, he was also thinking about a way to kill the enemy with one blow.

Therefore... Ajiu slapped the Dongyue Token that Li Xuan took out with one claw, and a burning sensation spread from his palm to his arm!
Ajiu's entire arm was charred black and smelled of meat. She stared in horror at the token in Li Xuan's hand: "What kind of magic weapon is that? Why could it cause me so much damage!"

Without a word, he bit his finger, tore open his collar, and smeared his blood on his chest to draw a talisman, somewhat manic: "I refuse to accept my fate!"

The runes on his chest emitted a red glow.

Upon seeing this, Ayou's pupils contracted, and he roared, "Run! This is a curse!"

The rune on Ajiu's chest cracked open, spraying out a large amount of blood. Each drop of blood was like a strong acid, falling onto the ground, walls, and furniture, corroding them and creating pitted holes...

Ayou couldn't dodge in time and was splashed with a few drops on his neck. His skin rotted and turned black at a visible speed.

The situation has become critical.

Li Xuan grabbed Ayou by the neck and took a few steps back, moving away from the area splattered with blood. He then pulled out the Gongcao talisman, threw it into the air, and chanted the incantation to summon the Gongcao!
However, this is a private number!

The talisman froze in mid-air, and instantly a figure formed from black ash emerged—it was none other than Gongcao Wang An.

Wang An's form was clearer and more lifelike than when summoned in the real world. He sensed Li Xuan's summons in Fengdu and came immediately...

Upon arriving here, he looked around and said, “This world is much better than the one you summoned before. That world was truly terrifying, unlike this one which gives me peace of mind; otherwise, I would have doubted my own existence.”

Li Xuan shouted, "Minister, there are here evil cultivators who refine children's souls into ghosts and set up feng shui formations to harm nine people every year! Now they are consuming children's ashes to forcibly prolong their lives and even want to merge twin ghosts to achieve demonic cultivation!"

Wang An's gaze fell on Ajiu, and he sneered: "This idea is extremely foolish. If combining two evil spirits could lead to demonic cultivation, Fengdu would have been in chaos long ago! Although this evil cultivator is despicable, he is not a major scourge. There is no need to use the Black Law to investigate and punish him. I will take action to eliminate this scourge myself."

As he spoke, he made a few gestures in the air with his index finger, which then coalesced into a black talisman!
Ajiu was somewhat taken aback: "What is this thing?"

Wang An didn't want to answer him; apart from Li Xuan, no one else was worth communicating with!
The black talisman struck A-Jiu's forehead, instantly extending numerous black iron chains to bind her completely. No matter how much A-Jiu struggled, it was to no avail. The blood that could corrode the ground fell onto the iron chains, but had no effect whatsoever...

Wang An smiled and said, "That will do."

He was about to speak.

Li Xuan scratched his head and said, "Wang Angongcao, I have a favor to ask. Could we speak in modern language when we talk? Last time was our first meeting, and due to the emergency, it wasn't convenient to say this..."

Wang An was taken aback. That way of speaking was a tradition in Fengdu. Whether ancient or modern people entered Fengdu, they had to endure it whether they understood it or not.

This was the first time he had heard someone say they weren't used to hearing it.

but……

Recalling the last time he and Lu Jiangong saw the Seal of the Inspector of the Three Realms, the Command of the Nine Springs, the Token of the Great Emperor of the Eastern Peak, and the Crimson Gourd during the inspection of the Black Law, none of these four items were made in the mortal world...

Wang An pondered for a moment, then smiled and said, "Your suggestion is quite common. However, this kind of way of speaking has been prevalent in Fengdu for countless years. From the gods in the heavens to the ghosts and spirits in the netherworld, everyone speaks in this way."

As a judge of Fengdu, I should naturally learn to respond accordingly. I may promise to speak to you in the language of this world, but what about other ghosts, gods, demon kings, grand marshals, or even the Great Emperor of the North Pole Ziwei?" As he spoke, he beckoned to Ajiu in mid-air, and black iron chains dragged Ajiu to his side, tearing the twin vengeful ghosts out of his body.

Li Xuan looked at Ajiu in front of the clerk, then at Ajiu lying on the ground, and understood. The clerk directly extracted Ajiu's soul from her body...

Ayou was anxious and quickly cupped his hands and said, "I am Chen Ayou, a disciple of Maoshan. Please wait a moment, Lord Gongcao, and allow me to say a few words to Ajiu."

Wang An paused with his right hand, then opened his left hand, revealing a pitch-black booklet. The pages flipped automatically, slowly revealing Ayou's illusory face, followed by rows of text that detailed everything about Ayou from childhood to adulthood, leaving no secrets whatsoever...

He snorted, "Insolence!"

An overwhelming wave of yin energy rushed towards him. Ayou instinctively raised his peach wood sword to block, but the sword immediately turned to dust. His consciousness suddenly plunged into darkness, and when he regained his senses, he was lying in the corner of the room, with a large amount of blood seeping from his mouth and nose.

what?
Why?

Ayou was completely baffled. Hearing the incantation Li Xuan used to summon the spirit, he realized that this ghost must be a clerk from the underworld of Fengdu.

When they appeared, they grabbed Ajiu without hesitation, and when they spoke to Li Xuan, they were all smiles and pleasantries, as if they were old friends who hadn't seen each other for many years. They were even willing to communicate in modern language...

But when it came to him, how come he became so "insolent" with just one sentence?
Ah-you couldn't even stand up.

Wang An looked down at him and said coldly:

"If one's heart in cultivating the Tao is not sincere, though one may harbor good intentions, one's nature is dull and foolish, unable to distinguish between good and evil, and one associates with wicked and petty people. If one were to become a judge in Fengdu, one would violate the precept of 'associating with wicked people, befriending juniors, and discussing law with the immoral.' Therefore, one should be escorted to Iron Enclosure Mountain, where the spirit official will write down one's evil deeds and sever one's soul!"

Alas, you are a disciple of Maoshan... However, I shall inquire of one of your patriarchs to see if he may serve in Fengdu..."

This second sentence roused Ayou, who said, "Could you, for the sake of the ancestor of the underworld, give Ajiu a chance to repent?"

Wang An sneered: "Naturally, we should thoroughly investigate your sects and find out if your followers have committed any disorderly acts, and punish them for collective punishment!"

Ah-you was completely dumbfounded. How could this happen?

Despite his aching body, he prostrated himself on the ground and kowtowed, saying, "I know I was wrong. Please don't implicate our ancestor. I will bear all the blame myself..."

He learned these skills from his father when he was a child, and if there were any collateral damage, his deceased father would definitely be the first to be punished.

He hated his father when he was a child, but as he grew up, he came to understand his father's helplessness.

Wang An looked at Li Xuan and smiled, "The private talisman has consumed a great deal of energy, so I must go. The merits accumulated by the ghost cultivators before and this time are enough to report to the judge and have two entries made in your merit book. If you accomplish one more thing, you can be promoted to a junior judge! I congratulate you in advance..."

He suddenly stopped, pulled in the air with his right hand, and Ah Jiu and the twin vengeful ghosts were frozen in the air, motionless.

Thick smoke filled the corridor outside, bells jingled, and four figures nearly two meters tall slowly emerged from the smoke. They held colorful, tattered umbrellas, wore hoods made of long strips of cloth, obscuring their faces, and wore robes made of similarly colorful strips of cloth...

Wang An immediately sensed these four peculiar beings, both familiar and unfamiliar, and decisively said, "Li Xuan, Inspect the Black Law!"

He loosened the chains, his body swaying into the corridor, standing in the path of four slender figures. With a flick of his right hand, a blood-red longsword suddenly emerged from his palm.
