A master of comedy!

“Jin Nu, seeing how pitiful my young master is, my heart aches.”

On the stage, Mulian and his servant Yili leave to do business (exit). Liu Qingti watches his son's back, puts his hand to his heart, and begins to recite his lines.

Although she tricked her son into leaving home, it was ultimately a testament to the deep bond between mother and son. Yu Ruyi's narration was not only clear and fluent, but also deeply affectionate.

Next, Jin Nu recited her lines, and then she continued with the epilogue, thus ending the first scene.

The actors in the second scene also perked up, ready to go on stage at any moment.

Everything seemed to be going very smoothly.

But Yu Ruyi's pupils narrowed, and she kept glancing at her junior sister, a hint of urgency flashing in her eyes.

Yu Ruyi, who played Jin Nu, hesitated to utter her line. She just stood there dumbfounded, her lips trembling, staring blankly at a certain spot in the audience.

Forgot your lines?
No, that's not right!

Yu Ruyi sensed something was amiss. Her junior sister had been a little nervous when she first went on stage, but as time went by, she became more and more into the zone.

Moreover, she knew her junior sister very well. Although she had been spoiled since childhood and was somewhat naive, she was exceptionally intelligent and had a photographic memory.

For more than a decade, I have almost never forgotten the lyrics.

Yu Ruyi followed her junior sister's gaze and looked down at the audience, then her pupils dilated in surprise.

Below the stands, a female body, seemingly composed of ice crystals and white bones, had appeared out of nowhere, radiating a chilling aura from head to toe.

The terrifying chill was so intense that even the surrounding ghosts couldn't withstand it, and they all swarmed away, leaving her in a vacuum.

Just one glance at him and Yu Ruyi felt as if she had fallen into an icy hell, instantly unable to move.

Oops!

She was extremely anxious and unleashed all her magical power. However, with her newly awakened eyes, how could she possibly get rid of this evil spirit that had escaped from the icy hell?
The ice crawled up the ground toward the stage, quickly spreading to the feet of the two people.

Just as they were about to meet their doom, a figure suddenly appeared, speaking before even making an appearance.

"The rooster crows at the roadside inn at dawn."

The sound was like a deep bell, and it even made the faint sound of roosters crowing all around, as if the sun would break out at any moment, which startled all the ghosts.

The spreading frost also quickly receded.

Zhou Sheng went on stage again, but this time he no longer sang the role of Ling Guan; instead, he played Luo Bu in the second act.

Actually, he had just started the show. The role of Luo Bu in the second scene was originally supposed to be played by another shaman, but the situation was critical, so he stepped in to save the day.

As the saying goes, saving someone from a crisis is like putting out a fire.

As fellow practitioners of occult arts, the two sisters had previously expressed their support for him, and Zhou Sheng was willing to lend a helping hand whenever he could.

"Walk."

As he passed by the two women, he turned around and urged them on, and the two women seized the opportunity to quickly leave the scene.

This should have been a mistake, but because Zhou Sheng used his tongue to summon a rooster to crow, which frightened the ghosts below the stage, no one noticed this momentary blunder.

Soon, all the ghosts' attention was drawn to Zhou Sheng again.

He remained calm and composed, reciting his lines with Fatty Song, who followed him onto the stage. They even performed a few gestures, and his skillful technique drew cheers from the audience.

A storm that should have resulted in death vanished without a trace.

"Senior sister, although he is the successor of the Demon of Drama, but..."

Backstage, the still-shaken junior sister patted her chest, looking at Zhou Sheng on stage with gratitude.

"What kind of demon would willingly save people?"

"If it weren't for him, would we all be dead just now?"

Yu Ruyi nodded and gave Zhou Sheng a deep look: "Don't look at what a person says, but look at what a person does."

"Boss Long may seem ruthless, but he's actually helping us all the time."

"I believe he is a good person."

……

With Zhou Sheng in charge, the second scene ended quickly and smoothly without any mishaps. Or rather, no ghosts dared to cause trouble.

The reason is simple: Zhou Sheng is just too strong.

The living bully the weak and fear the strong, and so do ghosts. The more powerful the ghost, the more it can sense the powerful aura emanating from Zhou Sheng's every move.

Especially after Huang Quan forcefully killed the Ghost King-level Yellow Demon God, that invisible power became even more astonishing.

Those who have killed tigers are avoided by vicious dogs; those who have slain dragons are feared by poisonous snakes.

For Zhou Sheng now, there are no ghosts below the stage that can threaten him. Only the second floor can make him feel wary.

After they left the stage, the two sisters bowed to him in gratitude.

Zhou Sheng simply nodded in response and immediately returned to his seat to begin removing his makeup.

We still have many games to play, so we can't let our guard down just because we had one good run.

Judge Lu would not let this go, and the Night Wanderer had not yet appeared.

The real test is yet to come.

……

The sixteenth level of hell, the volcanic hell.

The red land is thousands of miles away, and everything is like charcoal.

Wisps of flame occasionally shot out from the cracks in the earth, and a strong, acrid smell filled the air.

Yet, in this extremely treacherous place, a pair of snow-white, crystal-clear bare feet strode in, their bodies radiating divine light, causing the flames to automatically swirl around them.

It was none other than the Night Wanderer.

He walked all the way to the crater, saw the bubbling lava inside, smiled slightly, and jumped in.

The lava quickly engulfed him.

But the Night Wanderer showed no sign of pain, and even his red dress remained completely intact.

As He continued to descend, He passed by patches of fire coral forests, ignoring the fire dates among them, and finally entered a special cage.

The cage was built deep within the lava, guarded by thirty-six fire spirits and a pyre officer.

When they saw the Night Wanderers, they all bowed in respect.

Upon entering the cage, the Night Wanderer saw a man whose body was charred black, almost unrecognizable as human.

The man was suspended in mid-air, motionless, by eighteen specially made iron chains.

Only when the Night Wanderer approached within three zhang of him did he suddenly raise his head, his eyes already burned red by the lava.

Whoosh!

The eighteen iron chains trembled simultaneously, and magma poured into his throat, as if burning his lungs.

"Over the years, your once-proud golden body has been burned down, and your solid foundation has been destroyed in an instant. Tsk tsk, what a pity."

The Night Wanderer stroked the man's strong body with his fingers; even though it was almost charred, the sculpted muscle shape was still faintly visible.

One can imagine what a perfect body it would have been if it hadn't been burned.

The tied-up man had a fierce look in his eyes, but a hint of confusion flashed across them.

It seems that the torment over the years has caused his mind to collapse, leaving him almost like a puppet.

"If you obey your master, your master will grant you... happiness."

The Night Wanderer chuckled, and seeing the struggle in the other's eyes, she leaned closer to his ear, as if a demon were whispering something in his ear.

Would you like to hear a traditional opera?

In an instant, the man's body trembled violently, and he gradually gave up struggling.
