Full-Time Magister: A Hellish Start, But the Shadow King

Chapter 87: The Restoration of the Undead Empire, the Cataclysm Ends

"Get up," Cheng Xiao said.

"Yes, Your Majesty!" The armored evil spirit obediently stepped aside, yielding the blood-stained throne.

The figure in black imperial armor stood guard beside the Blood Throne, like a great general protecting his king.

The shadow soldier inherits everything from his previous life, and the armored evil spirit possesses all the memories of the ancient king.

This includes the Earthly Sacred Spring, totems, and even methods to control the Abyss of Evil.

Any treasures and legacies left behind by this unparalleled emperor would be astonishing, but unfortunately, later generations did not know how to use them.

"Oh my gosh!!! Only such a noble and imposing throne is worthy of our lord!"

Bell knelt before Cheng Xiao, who sat on the Blood Throne, to show his utmost loyalty.

Yegorit glanced at Bell, speechless.

Cheng Xiao, feeling embarrassed, coughed twice and said to the emperor in his armor:

"Let all the spirits that attacked the ancient city fall into slumber."

The armored evil spirit obeyed the command and issued the emperor's decree.

..............................

The battlefield outside the north city wall.

The eight directions of dead rulers, corpse lords, corpse ministers, corpse generals, and weak servant-level undead.

Upon hearing the emperor's command, they instantly ceased their attack.

Even when magic was still hitting them, they showed no intention of retaliating.

No one dares to disobey the emperor's orders!

Millions of the dead fled in a frenzy, disregarding everything, heading in the opposite direction from the ancient capital.

The colossal corpses of the mountain peaks, the agate corpse king, the ghost king, and the ghost mist commander all had silver light appear beneath their feet and were instantly swept away.

The Lord of the Underworld flapped his sky-covering bone wings and crashed into the clouds until he disappeared from everyone's sight.

In a short period of time, millions of dead souls, including the Eight Directions Kings of Death, vanished.

The scene before them was too surreal, like a nightmare. The previous person seemed to be waking up from a dream, staring blankly at their companion.

"Have the undead escaped?"

"Could it be that the operation succeeded and the Ancient King was sealed away?!"

"Great! We won! The ancient capital won!"

After everyone realized what had happened, they felt a great sense of relief and even started to cheer.

"Mo Fan and the others succeeded?" This was the only possibility Han Ji could think of.

"Sha Yuan has started to drift!" Zhu Meng said, gazing at Sha Yuan several kilometers away.

The high-ranking officials looked around and saw that the space around Sha Yuan was beginning to collapse, indicating that another relocation was about to begin!

This time, Sha Yuan did not appear near the ancient capital city; he vanished without a trace, leaving behind only a vast expanse of deathly aura and collapsed land.

Only after learning through communication devices that Sha Yuan had not actually appeared within a hundred miles of the ancient capital did the high-ranking officials dare to relax.

"They succeeded! It seems that Mo Fan and Zhang Xiaohou have successfully stopped the Ancient King!" Zhu Meng said.

At that moment, a black, chaotic vortex appeared in the sky.

The chaotic vortex was like a portal to another world, from which several figures flew out.

These people were Mo Fan, Zhang Xiaohou, Su Xiaoluo, Fang Gu, and Zhan Kong.

..............................

The Abyss of Slaughter, a white tomb palace, the Blood Throne.

After returning from the Nine Netherworlds, it floated to the Blood Throne.

She glanced at the figures in the imperial armor, then at Cheng Xiao seated on the blood throne, and instantly understood everything.

"Hey hey hey!!! You dead ghost, you don't look too good~~~" Bell said sarcastically.

After a smirk, Jiuyou quickly threw herself into Cheng Xiao's arms and said softly:

"Good brother, I knew you would succeed. You should know that, otherwise I wouldn't have given you this information."

"That's not what you said before," Cheng Xiao said with a sneer.

"Alright." The Nine Netherworld Queen's beautiful eyes held a hint of resentment.

"Keep your promise, you can punish your sister however you like."

After saying that, she collapsed onto Cheng Xiao, looking completely at him like she was at his mercy.

"Don't give me that." Cheng Xiao used his 'Dominator's Power' to blow her away, and said:

"Reorganize the empire and await my orders. A much larger stage awaits you!"

"Yes, Your Majesty!" the armored evil spirit said respectfully.

Changing the subject, Cheng Xiao looked at Jiu You:

"As for you, wait until I get back, I'll deal with you then!"

Still holding a grudge? (Nine Netherworlds' tone was resentful.)

"Yes, ma'am~~~"

""

..............................

When Cheng Xiao returned, the ancient capital's army had already begun returning to the city, and several high-ranking officials remained to guard the northern city.

Outside the northern city, there is also a massive, dark blue-green mountain that is rolled up into a huge mass.

The totem serpent was curled up there, occasionally flicking out its forked tongue—enough to easily kill large numbers of the undead.

Suddenly, a flash of silver light appeared above my head.

Cheng Xiao landed steadily on the head of the totem serpent and couldn't help but say:

"Hey everyone, sorry to keep you waiting!"

sizzle~~~

The totem snake flicked its tongue, showing no sign of blaming.

Looking at the totem snake covered in wounds, Cheng Xiao couldn't help but click his tongue.

The totem serpent not only had to confront the corpse of the mountain peak, who was also a supreme monarch.

With its massive size and the prospect of being besieged by countless undead, it's hard to avoid getting injured.

"I promised Sister Tang Yue I'd bring the Xuan Snake back safe and sound, that shouldn't be a problem, right?" Cheng Xiao thought for a moment:

"I'd better trouble Han Ji to treat him."

Return the totem snake to the totem bead.

Cheng Xiao's actions also attracted the attention of nearby monks.

Upon seeing that it was Cheng Xiao, the mages of the Magic Association respectfully said:

"Councilor Cheng, Chairman Han and the others have returned to the inner city."

All the monks who participated in this catastrophe deeply admired Cheng Xiao, the young councilor.

Without Cheng Xiao, the ancient capital might have truly been destroyed by the siege of a million undead.

"Okay, I understand."

Cheng Xiao nodded and headed directly to the inner city.

..............................

"Hahahaha! I knew you were alright!" Zhu Meng laughed heartily upon seeing Cheng Xiao return.

"I have plenty of ways to protect myself," Cheng Xiao smiled.

"What's going on now? Did Mo Fan and the others successfully stop the Ancient King?"

At this point, Zhu Meng's expression turned serious.

"No, neither Mo Fan nor the others, nor even the outside help I invited, saw the Old King." Han Ji said solemnly.

"What's going on?"

"I don't know, but what is certain is that the ancient king has fallen into obscurity."

""

Han Ji said, "In any case, we have now temporarily regained peace."

"Councilor Cheng, thank you for everything you've done for this ancient capital!"

"With great power comes great responsibility, it's only right," Cheng Xiao said with a smile.

"I have already arranged accommodations for Councilor Cheng. If Councilor Cheng doesn't have anything urgent, please stay and rest for a few days," Han Ji said.

Cheng Xiao nodded; there was indeed a lot to digest this time.

Although the outer city was breached by the other three undead forces, the inner city remained intact.

Han Ji found Cheng Xiao a quiet villa, perfect for self-cultivation and secluded training.
