She became the new ruler of the underworld.

After gaining authority over the underworld, she also received the dying instructions from the Earth Mother Heavenly Lord.

There's a rebellion in the underworld now, so she should tell the heavens about the demons and then go to the underworld herself to quell the unrest.

Once she officially enters the Underworld, no one can take away her authority.

At this time, the immortal realm was also in great chaos.

The rifts brought about by the arrival of the demon realm also had a tremendous impact on the immortal realm.

The gate to the celestial realm can no longer be maintained.

When the Heavenly Emperor Gouchen learned that the Heavenly Gate was about to close and the Demon Realm was causing chaos, he quickly returned to the Immortal Realm.

It seems that most of the powerful figures in the human world have died, so there is no longer any need for him to guard the area.

Now, with 800,000 troops of Xiqi besieging the city, the Yin Shang dynasty is already on its last legs. Does it still need him?

And so, the Heavenly Emperor Gouchen returned to the Celestial Realm, and the Heavenly Gate closed.

Jiang Linglong felt a strange sense of unease as she watched this scene.

Over the course of seven years, she outwitted and outmaneuvered the extraordinary individuals of the Shang Dynasty, and eventually gained some prestige in Xiqi.

She secretly trained a group of people to search for the whereabouts of the blood-red greatsword for her.

She didn't dare to approach anyone directly, for fear of being discovered.

Even if they are discovered searching for the sword, they can still get away with it.

However, after seven years, she gained nothing.

So much so that over time, she almost began to wonder if she had been too confident. Perhaps the sword immortal really was dead, and he might have just realized he couldn't survive and wanted to protect his sword.

Seeing that the Shang Dynasty only had one last line of defense left, Jiang Linglong silently clenched her fists.

If Lin Yi is really not dead, then tomorrow's battle may be her last chance.

Feeling somewhat irritable, Jiang Linglong left the crowd and went to the place where prisoners were held.

The prisoner she came to interrogate was a spy from the Shang Kingdom. As the Shang Kingdom suffered repeated defeats, many people who served the Shang Kingdom gradually came to light. To Jiang Linglong's surprise, many of the common people were actually from the Shang Kingdom.

The reason she kept this spy around was because she discovered that this person's mission was actually to monitor several members of the Yuezhi tribe.

In the vast sea of ​​people, Jiang Linglong never expected to encounter the Yuezhi people again.

Although she did not acknowledge the Yuezhi people, she still captured the spy and wanted to find out why he was spying on the Yuezhi people.

But this spy refused to confess anything and remained defiant to the death.

Originally, it would have been fine if this person had been killed, but Jiang Linglong felt that this matter was very important.

Perhaps this is a woman's intuition.

So ever since he was arrested, Jiang Linglong has come to question him every day, and it has been several months now.

"The Shang Dynasty you serve is doomed. Tomorrow, the armies of Xiqi will destroy everything in Weicheng and march straight into Chaoge. What else do you have to hide?"

Jiang Linglong didn't expect that her words would cause the captured spy to shed tears.

"What is it about that tyrant that you should be loyal to? He disregards the lives of his people, has offended Heaven, and caused natural disasters year after year. Now the day of the country's collapse is imminent. Why do you still weep for him?"

"Shut up! You traitors, how dare you slander the emperor!"

Jiang Linglong shook her head; there was nothing more to say to such blindly loyal people.

"Why don't you tell me why you're spying on those people? Do you really want to take the secrets underground?"

"I'd rather die than tell!"

This person remains as stubborn as ever.

Jiang Linglong simply gave up and said, "If you don't want to tell me, fine, I already know the general idea anyway."

That tyrant must have known those people were Yuezhi people, and had been watching them closely, ready to strike at any moment, right?

"nonsense!"

Jiang Linglong's provocation worked.

"The king is benevolent and has not made things difficult for the remnants of the Yuezhi people at all."

My task is indeed to monitor them and protect them. The king has decreed that as long as they do not intend to rebel or harm the innocent, we should help them settle down in Da Shang.

"Without the King's secret assistance, how could those Yuezhi remnants have so easily established themselves in the Shang Dynasty?"

Upon hearing this news, Jiang Linglong was immediately invigorated.

She thought that the Shang king was monitoring the Yuezhi people to observe the effects of the curse, and that by following the clues, she might be able to figure out the cause and effect of the curse on her.

She never expected that this man, whom the world and the gods called a tyrant, would issue such an order.

"I don't believe you! You can't fool me!"

"What's the point of me lying to you now?"

Seeing that he had already been tricked into talking, the spy decided to speak his mind.

"I was born a slave and had no skills. Fortunately, the king took pity on me and taught me some skills to make a living."

He was also freed from slavery under the pretext of being sent to the army.

Do you think we don't know what real soldiers do?

You say the king is cruel and has spies everywhere, but you don't know that we spies don't need to kill or set fires. We can just find a place to stand guard and live a peaceful life.

"Do you think we don't know who's good to us?"

Every word the spy spoke was exceptionally sincere, and Jiang Linglong's heart began to waver.

The spy continued, "You say the king is cruel and has offended Heaven, causing the people to be displaced and suffer calamities. But after you rebels broke into the city, did the merchants who surrendered to you ever say that the king was cruel?"

This one sentence delivered the final blow to Jiang Linglong.

Looking back over the years, Xiqi conquered cities and seized territories, and the people in each place they went to did not put up much resistance.

However, they did not insult the previous dynasty.

Jiang Linglong hadn't paid attention to this matter before, but now that she thinks about it, if the Shang king was really cruel and ruthless, why wouldn't these merchants be happy about the downfall of the Shang kingdom?

However, Jiang Linglong was not so easily deceived.

When she was in Xining, she had heard that the Shang Dynasty implemented benevolent policies, but in reality, she had also seen many places where officials preyed on the people and many people did not live well.

She once thought that the Shang king was a hypocritical monarch. After learning that the Shang king had stolen her fortune, she rarely doubted any of the bad things said about the Shang dynasty.

But after seven years of war, too many people had died serving the Shang Dynasty.

If the Shang king was really so incompetent and relied entirely on luck, would he really have had so many people assisting him?

Even Lin Yi has been working for him all along...

At this moment, Jiang Linglong's heart was in turmoil.

She hasn't completely changed her mind, but she's already starting to have some doubts.

"I will verify what you said."

Jiang Linglong left in a hurry, but those words kept echoing in her mind.

The day passed exceptionally quickly, and chaos reigned in the mortal realm, the celestial realm, and the underworld.

The gods of the celestial realm and the demons who had crossed the border were locked in a fierce battle. Following the guidance left by the Earth Mother Heavenly Lord, Bixia arrived in the underworld and began to settle scores with those possessed by demons using the authority left by the Earth Mother Heavenly Lord.

In the human realm, the Shang king led his last army to Weicheng, where they confronted the 800,000-strong army of Xiqi.

At this time, Lin Yi only had 10,000 troops at his disposal.

How can you win a game with 10,000 against 800,000?

When Ji Fa learned of the Shang king's military strength, he couldn't help but chuckle.

When he was beaten and forced to flee in a sorry state, he still had no fewer than 10,000 men with him.

"Emperor Xin's fate is sealed. Order the entire army to prepare food, set up camp, and tomorrow morning, breach the city gates and capture Emperor Xin!"

"Break down the city gates and capture Emperor Xin!"

The shouts of hundreds of thousands of people shook the heavens.

Lin Yi listened from afar, and almost laughed.

But he didn't laugh; he simply ordered the drums to be beaten, and then, alone on horseback, he walked out of the fortress.

The people of Weicheng didn't want him to risk his life alone and wanted to follow him, but Lin Yi stopped them.

"Today is my personal showcase. You'll all have your chance to shine in the future, so just wait and see!"

No one dared to disobey Lin Yi's orders, so they allowed Lin Yi to leave the city alone.

Amidst the clamor of voices across the street, Lin Yi also shouted out.

"With Di Xin here, who dares to fight!"

His voice alone overwhelmed the entire Xiqi army.

Ji was stunned for a moment, and it took her a long time to react.

Is Di Xin no longer interested in playing the game?

Someone's come up here, looking for death?

As is customary, it's king versus king.

But when he thought of Lin Yi's powerful voice, Ji Fa still hesitated a bit.

"Lotus Prince, come with me."

Ji Fa selected a valiant subordinate to accompany him as they went to meet the enemy.

"Zishou, when you harmed my father, did you ever imagine this day would come?"

Ji Fa attempted to enhance his aura through anger.

Actually, when he wasn't in front of Lin Yi, he had a very kingly aura, but once he saw Lin Yi, his aura inexplicably weakened a bit.

Lin Yi looked at Ji Fa and shook his head.
