After breaking up with my girlfriend, I became a Great Sage of the Demon Clan.

The underworld below the 25th floor?

This place belongs to the world of yin energy. Normally, breathing here for just a few minutes will cause your yang energy to dissipate completely, leaving you dead.

As a demigod, although he wouldn't die from the yin energy, his own abilities would be greatly suppressed.

"Little girl, you..."

Mu Yuan looked at Little Yama in surprise.

Are you alright?

Little Yama shrugged.

"Now that we're here, I won't hide it anymore. I'm actually an awakened demon, and coming here feels like coming home to me."

Little Yama took a few breaths, his face showing rapture.

After being thrown into the Chu capital by Jiu Feng, she woke up immediately and then awakened her powers.

While Mu Yuan and Leng Qing were still dizzy, Little Yama absorbed a large amount of Yin energy, and his physical abilities expanded unimaginably, like those in "Dragon Ball".

As one of the Five Ghost Emperors, whose body was personally appointed and created by the Great Emperor of Fengdu, this place couldn't be more comfortable.

Something's not right...

Leng Xiangxiang asked Mu Yuan.

"Why did that Nine... Evil God throw us here?"

Mu Yuan also touched his body and said.

"And it didn't limit our power either..."

Little Yama said, resting his face on one hand.

"They probably want to play with us like little mice. This place is gloomy, and there are a bunch of powerful ghosts outside. If we don't go out, we won't find a way to survive. If we go out, we will face life and death. These perverts like to torture their prey like this."

In a place like the Abyss Underworld, even a true god can easily perish. Leng Qing and Mu Yuan, who were present, were only demigods. The two of them were also very confident that if they encountered a slight accident, it would not be surprising if they were to perish.

The Zero Human Zone is such a terrifying place.

Mu Yuan walked to the door of the house.

The door was made by flattening a whole tree, but the carpenter who made it may not have been very skilled or top-notch in the industry. The whole door is full of pits and bumps, and the edges are rough.

And the door seems to be quite old; the color has faded.

Little Yama reminded him.

"This door is severely corroded by yin energy; it will shatter if you touch it."

Sou Muyuan nodded, moved closer to the door, and closed his eyes to listen to the sounds outside.

There was a gust of wind outside the door, and a faint sobbing sound, a sound of sorrow and despair, filled with a chilling hatred.

Mu Yuan turned around, lowered his voice, and said to Xiao Yanjun, Leng Qing.

"It seems a bit... I wouldn't recommend going out before you're fully prepared."

Leng Qing also showed a troubled expression.

Leng Qing had been to the Abyss Underworld more than once, but she had never been to such a deep and dangerous place.

"It's okay."

Little Yama walked to Mu Yuan's side, and the gray-white door opened.

Little Yama looked at Mu Yuan, who was retreating as the gate opened, and said.

"I'll go out and take a look. If there are no problems, I'll come back to you."

Little Yama walked out the door.

Mu Yuan wanted to stop him, but in the end he withdrew his hand.

Mu Yuan is currently struggling to survive, and he doesn't want to save someone who is so self-centered and insists on running outside even though he knows it's dangerous.

Given Mu Yuan's age of over thirty, it would be good if this kind of person only caused death; the real danger is that not only will they not only cause death themselves, but they will also drag others down and cause their deaths.

Outside.

As he stepped out of the house, Little Yama took another deep breath, lost in thought.

The yin energy outside was even stronger. After entering Little Yama's body, it felt like a cool breeze blowing through his limbs and bones, so comfortable that it gave him goosebumps.

Damn, going back to my hometown is so great.

A faint, high-pitched cry could be heard from all around, along with a massive amount of yin energy slowly approaching.

A powerful ghost sensed something was wrong and came over.

Of course, this is nothing. Little Yama dispersed the Yin energy in his body to all parts of his body.

Even normal mortals, including true gods, cannot conceal their yang energy after entering the underworld. Therefore, powerful ghosts can often recognize awakened beings who are not from the underworld.

However, Little Yama is different. Little Yama can make his body completely devoid of any yang energy, and can even perfectly merge with the surrounding yin energy, making it difficult for the ghosts and spirits of the underworld to detect his existence.

If this instinctive ability were enhanced by divine power, Little Yama could beat a ghost to death in this place without the ghost even realizing who was hitting it.

Of course, Little Yama doesn't have a divine status now, so he can't beat up ghosts and monsters in front of him without them noticing. But if he just wants to hide himself, this ability is enough.

Sugi was drawn to the yang energy of Little Yama, and the yin energy of the ghosts suddenly stopped moving. A few seconds later, the yin energy moved away.

The ghosts represented by these massive amounts of Yin energy were unaware of Little Yama's presence and returned home.

This chapter has not been approved.

One bedroom.

Zhou Yan lay on his bed, his eyes vacant. Chu Daoyun sat beside him and said with a smile.

"You initially refused, but I didn't expect you to take the initiative later."

Zhou Yan turned over, his back to Chu Daoyun.

Chu Daoyun stood up.

"Little one, take a good bath and get some rest. I'll cook for you again tomorrow."

Chu Daoyun stretched and walked out of Zhou Yan's bedroom.

I feel so refreshed after forcefully eating my little cutie.

"Snapped……"

Zhou Yan's bedroom door closed quietly.

Zhou Yan, who had his back to the door, turned over again and muttered to himself.

"Brother Yan..."

"Dude, you're the one who's saving me now."

"Please don't not come..."

If Little Yama doesn't come, I'll only become a rich woman's plaything.

……

The underworld, the capital of Chu.

Hidden in a corner of a small house, Little Yama felt an itch on his nose. He quickly contracted the Yin energy within his body, suppressing the sneeze that was about to come out.

Little Yama touched his nose.

What happened?

Is Zhou Yan talking about himself?

In this world, the only people who can be mentioned by Little Yama, besides Zhou Yan, are his maternal uncle, with whom he is only related by blood.

Of course, that villain who would abandon his own niece in the mountains to fend for herself for a little wealth probably won't be talking about himself.

A few gusts of cold wind blew by, hitting Little Yama's face. Little Yama quickly hid in the shadows.

At the end of the street, four legless sedan chair bearers slowly floated by carrying a sedan chair decorated with dragons and phoenixes.

Little Yama sensed the situation. Regardless of the people inside the sedan chair that floated over, the four sedan chair bearers possessed extremely strong Yin energy, with a faint, chilling aura emanating from them. Furthermore, this place was the Abyss Underworld, permeated with Yin energy, which naturally suppressed Yang-type creatures. Yin-type ghosts and spirits had a significant advantage over them. If Leng Qing and Mu Yuan were to confront these four sedan chair bearers head-on, they would likely not fare well.

It's not impossible for two highly awakened demigods to die at the hands of these four sedan chair carriers, but it would be quite difficult for them to die.

The sedan chair bearers carried the sedan chair, swaying and drifting past Little Yama.

3. Just as she arrived in front of Little Yama, a pair of fair and jade-like hands lifted the curtain hanging in the window of the sedan chair, revealing an extremely clean and elegant face, like snow in the wind and frost on plum blossoms.

Little Yama squinted as he watched the sedan chair travel from one end of the street to the other.

After hesitating for a while, Little Yama secretly followed the direction of the sedan chair.

Wu's sedan chair was not fast, but after a quarter of an hour, it had traveled through two streets and around several alleys before arriving at a palace called "Daming Palace".

Standing before the palace were a row of gatekeepers and patrol soldiers, their flesh and blood corroded away, leaving only skeletons.

Little Yama looked at the grandeur of the "Daming Palace" and then at the patrolling guards in front of the gate, muttering in surprise.

"This place... how come there are so many earthbound spirits..."

These soldiers patrolling the palace gates are all earthbound spirits who cannot rest in peace after death, bound to the ground and unable to find release.

If it were during the time when Little Yama possessed divine status, he could send all these earthbound spirits to reincarnation with just a snap of his fingers. But now, Little Yama can only watch as these earthbound spirits do as they please.

Four sedan chair bearers arrived at the city gate. A gatekeeper wearing a helmet adorned with gold flowers and silver bells walked over, mumbled a few words to the sedan chair bearers, and then waved his hand after seemingly confirming their identities.

The city gates of the Daming Palace opened inwards with a loud rumble.

The sedan chair bearers carried the sedan chairs into the city gate, which then slowly closed until it engulfed and swallowed the departing bearers.

The gatekeepers and patrolling soldiers at the gate returned to their original order.

Zhou Yan waited for a while until the next shift of guards came to relieve him, then stealthily approached one of the outer walls of the "Daming Palace".

He made a little noise that alerted the patrolling soldiers, but no one could find where Little Yama was. Little Yama made his way to the top of the city wall without any danger.

The area above the city wall was much more chaotic than the city gate. After Qi Xiaoyanjun climbed over, he didn't encounter any patrolling guards or archers, but he did see corpses all over the ground.

Archers and patrolling soldiers used to gather at intervals on the city wall to observe the situation outside the city. But now, these soldiers who were supposed to be observing the situation outside the city have all fallen to the ground, their clothes torn to dust, and their pale skeletons piled up in heaps.

Little Yama looked down and examined the skeleton beneath his feet.

There were no wounds or fractures, but the yin energy had seeped into the bones. If I'm not mistaken, the cause of death for these skeletons was likely the entry of yin energy into their bodies, which suppressed their yang energy, ultimately leading to the depletion of their yang energy and their death.

Little Yama has seen many large cities in the underworld, including Fengdu, Youdu, and even the capital city where he obtained the Yama Seal. They all have vast areas of buildings that seem to be for human habitation.

However, there were no large areas of human bones among these buildings.

These cities, ruled by Yama, the Emperor of Fengdu, and other underworld deities, are for the dead and their souls. Even if there are living humans, they could not possibly appear in such large numbers as before Little Yama.

With so many corpses, it doesn't look like the ruins of a city in the underworld, but rather like the ruins of a human city in the mortal world...

Little Yama put down the skeleton before him and walked to the top of the city wall, looking outwards.

Chudu is a city with a population of one million. As a result, when Little Yama looked around, he saw large areas of buildings silent in the darkness, with faint lights flickering from different buildings, indicating that there must be something belonging to the underworld inside these buildings.

Of course, Little Yama had seen too many of these things and didn't think they were unimportant. What was important was that Little Yama saw majestic stone lions for warding off evil, fish-shaped statues for preventing fire and disaster, and shikigami statues for protecting against lightning and exorcising evil spirits on the rooftops and entrances of several nearby buildings.

Stone lions are one thing, but when did the underworld ever need to guard against fires or lightning strikes?

Little Yama has visited many cities in the underworld, and these cities also have statues of gods, but most of them are great gods like Gouchen Shangdi, Zhenwu Dadi, and Houtu Niangniang. The strange beasts in front of him are just for fire and lightning protection, and Little Yama has never seen them before.

After all, it's a city with a true god in charge, so who would care about such a few strange beasts?

Therefore, it is highly likely that this city is not the city of the underworld.

It is very likely that a long time ago, this city belonged to the human world. Then, some great disaster occurred, and it fell from the human world to the underworld. At the moment of the fall, naturally, all the living people in this city were corrupted by the yin energy of the underworld and died.

Continuing to extrapolate from this idea, Xiao Yanjun began to think that Jiu Feng's intentions in leaving him and the others in this city were probably not as simple as just looking for fun.

Is Jiufeng trying to do something with these people?

A sinister aura blew from behind Little Yama.

Little Yama squatted down, leaning against the wall, his whole body enveloped in yin energy.

A group of earthbound spirit soldiers, carrying lanterns and clad in armor, walked by. Because they were all ghosts, they walked as if floating, not even stepping on the pile of white bones on the ground. The patrolling soldiers came quietly and left quietly.

As the ghost soldiers receded into the distance, Little Yama crawled out little by little, stepping on the gaps between the bones, with his hands and feet on the ground.

At the end of the city wall, there is a downward staircase.
