A master of comedy!

押？
The Black and White Impermanence exchanged a glance, a hint of shame flashing in their eyes.

Even that old fellow, the Yellow Demon God, has been slain. It's likely that Zhou Sheng's name will soon spread throughout the entire underworld.

If such a vicious person really wanted to resist, he might have been able to kill his brothers while they were underwater.

"Thank you, Boss Long, for ridding the underworld of a scourge. My brother and I will definitely report this to King Yama and report your merits."

Their voices became more polite.

"As for escorting him, that's even more out of the question. Boss Long is a distinguished guest who was invited to perform. How could he be escorted?"

Zhou Sheng looked at them and said with a half-smile, "But this journey has truly been anything but peaceful."

A hint of hesitation flashed in Bai Wuchang's eyes, while Hei Wuchang was more straightforward, taking out a small mirror and smashing it down in front of Zhou Sheng.

Click!

He stomped on the mirror and shattered it.

"Brother, that guy surnamed Lu has harmed us so much. You can tolerate this, but I can't. Let's get rid of this broken mirror!"

"Okay, no thanks!"

Bai Wuchang also made up his mind, took out a mirror and smashed it, explaining, "This is the Yin-Yang Treasure Mirror, a treasure given to us by Lu Zhidao, who told us brothers to find a way to make you suffer, and then stand by and watch from the sidelines at Golden Rooster Mountain."

“Through these two mirrors, Lu Zhidao can observe this place at any time and transmit his voice to us. He used these mirrors before to have us take you by water.”

A look of realization flashed across Zhou Sheng's eyes.

No wonder that Lu Pan was always able to act ahead of time and plan things out in an orderly manner, as if he had all the information at his fingertips.

For example, after the arrival of the Yin King's army for escort, they were able to blockade Jinji Mountain in advance, forcing General Lu to risk following them by water.

Another example is arranging for the Yellow Demon God to ambush underwater.

This Judge Lu is truly a cunning old fox. As a dignified judge of the underworld, he spares no effort in dealing with a mere underworld sorcerer like himself, unleashing a series of deadly moves.

Zhou Sheng lowered his eyes, a murderous intent hidden beneath.

He was not a good-tempered person; on the contrary, he felt it was unfair to himself not to beat those who tried to harm him to death or inflict serious damage.

Zhou Sheng stepped forward to the broken bronze mirror, a cold smile in his eyes, his lips slightly parted but no sound was uttered, yet it was easy for others to read his lip movements.

"Old dog!"

……

"Pfft~"

Inside the palace, the Night Wanderer looked at the blurry image in the mirror, deduced what the other person was cursing, and couldn't help but laugh.

"What a handsome and bold young man! He's also very skilled and has a strong personality, like a...heart-stirring little wolfhound."

The next moment, a large foot appeared in the mirror.

With a crack, the mirror shattered completely, causing the last trace of the image to vanish into thin air.

Judge Lu sat there, his gaze slightly cold, and remained silent.

"Hey, you old dog, you—"

Watch your words.

Judge Lu gave her a cold look, his gaze sharp as a knife: "Although you have powerful backers, in this Investigation Division, I will always be your superior."

"Last time you let that girl live, forcing me to send people to clean up your mess. I haven't settled that score with you yet."

Upon hearing this, the Night Wanderer felt a chill run down his spine, and the playful expression on his face immediately faded considerably.

It seems that Judge Lu was truly angered by the words "old dog," as he rarely saw the other party so angry.

Seeing that the Night Wanderer had become serious, Judge Lu stopped scolding him and instead picked up a chess piece and slowly placed it down.

"A tiger cub has not yet roared, yet it has already shown its claws; a fledgling phoenix has not yet sung, yet it has already flapped its golden feathers. It is too young to know what 'a hidden dragon should not be used' means." He paused, his voice deep as thunder, each word cold and indifferent.

"Since we can't break this young dragon on the road, let's see who's the best on the stage."

"Go ahead, proceed according to plan, let this show..."

"Let's get this lively."

……

"Boss Long, this is Fengdu City. Now that I have escorted you here, I can return and report back. Please take good care of yourself!"

Outside Fengdu City, General Lu clasped his hands in a salute to Zhou Sheng, but there was a hint of shame in his eyes.

Although it was called an escort, Zhou Sheng still protected him in the Yellow Springs.

“Brother Lu, you risked your life to protect me on this trip, never abandoning me. Even though it was because of military orders, I will always be grateful for your kindness and sincerity!”

Zhou Sheng bowed to him.

A flicker of emotion crossed General Lu's eyes. He grasped Zhou Sheng's hand and said with a sigh, "I always thought that most Yin-Yang Masters were cowards who feared death, but I've realized today that I was completely wrong."

"Heroes like Boss Long are extremely rare, even in the military. From now on, if Boss Long doesn't mind, I'll come to have a drink with you whenever I have free time!"

"Haha, great, you're very welcome!"

Zhou Sheng wasn't putting on a show; he genuinely liked this valiant general from the military and hoped to become friends with him.

"This is my birth date and name. If Boss Long needs help, please burn this paper at midnight and prepare a jar of fine wine. I will certainly come!"

Zhou Sheng took the note and saw a line of text written on it.

"Lu Zhongheng, Yongtai 3rd year..."

The name seemed somewhat familiar to him. As a history enthusiast in his previous life, he seemed to remember that this name belonged to a founding general of the Ming Dynasty.

He seems to be one of the "Twenty-Four Generals of Huaixi" who were among the first to follow Zhu Yuanzhang in conquering the country.

In this world, Zhu Yuanzhang was no longer around, and the name Lu Zhongheng did not circulate to future generations. However, he rose to prominence in the underworld and became a general who was highly regarded by the King of the Underworld.

Unexpectedly, I even ran into a celebrity.

Zhou Sheng carefully put away the note, and then followed the Black and White Impermanence into Fengdu City.

This infamous ghost town doesn't look much different from human cities, except that it's taller and more sturdy.

Many spirits came and went, and they looked no different from ordinary people, except that their faces were a little pale.

If there were souls who had fallen to their deaths and had no money to stitch up their faces, it would look quite terrifying.

But most of them were no different from ordinary people; some even gathered in groups of three or five, chatting and laughing, drinking and composing poetry.

When people see the Black and White Impermanence, they quickly try to avoid them, and those who can't avoid them kneel down and pay their respects.

"Boss Long, the most famous place in Fengdu City is the Wangxiang Terrace, the last place where the souls of the dead can see their loved ones. Would you like to take a look?"

The Black and White Impermanence suggested that since their journey to the Yellow Springs, they had shown Zhou Sheng great respect, even addressing him with the honorific "you."

Is it convenient?

Zhou Sheng was somewhat tempted. Since he was already here, he really wanted to see the famous Wangxiangtai.

“It would certainly be inconvenient for others, but Boss Long saved our lives, so this little thing is nothing to worry about.”

They brought Zhou Sheng to the Wangxiang Terrace, where many souls were queuing up to ascend, all hoping to see their loved ones.

However, by taking advantage of the privileges of the Black and White Impermanence, Zhou Sheng cut in line and climbed onto the dark platform. As soon as he stood on it, he seemed to hear distant calls in his ears.

He turned around and was suddenly stunned.
