Chapter 141: The Furious Empress

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

As Su Mingli finished speaking,

The few people in the study room looked at each other. At first, the panic that rose because of Yinshi’s detection also could not help but sigh in relief at this moment.

‘Still…’

“Father, Sect Master Zhu, that empress has already noticed. If that Xiong Jian betrays us…”

“I won’t.”

Su Mingli directly reached out and interrupted, “He will definitely not betray us.”

His words were firm and decisive. He was abnormally certain.

“But, what if?”

“There’s no what if.

Su Mingli looked at the worried Su Ruyu and explained with a smile, “In fact, compared to our worries, this Ghost General Xiong Jian is more afraid of this matter being exposed.”

Su Ruyu frowned.

“Why?”

“It’s because this guy has been doing this for more than a year or two. It’s almost 40 years. If this matter is exposed, how can the empress let him off so easily?” “He has a very high status in the Yin World? Second only to the empress?”

“Not really.”

Zhu Cong, who was at the side, looked at Su Ruyu and shook his head. “He has a very high status in the underworld, so he won’t do this business. There are a total of eight underworld ghost generals, and this Xiong Jian is just one of them. However, above the ghost generals are 108 ghost marquises and 36 underworld officers. In terms of status, there are ghost generals, but not many. In our sect, they are at most a deacon. The only difference is that the spider lilies on both sides of the river are managed by him, just like the deacon who manages logistics in the sect.”

As he spoke.

Zhu Cong seemed to have thought of something, and he looked at Su Mingli

and said, “Right, has the case of the logistics deacon of the Sword Sect been published? I heard that the Sword Sect found out about it because of corruption?”

Su Mingli nodded and said, “I checked long ago. At that time, I even entered the river of fate and returned to the past. I took a look. It was said that it was because the disciples of the Alchemy Sect came to communicate. In the end, they said in the canteen that the rice here was only suitable for feeding pigs in the Alchemy Sect. Then, it happened.”

Zhu Cong frowned and said, “The Alchemy Sect is rich and overbearing. Isn’t it normal for them to say that?”

Su Mingli smiled and said, “But the problem is that before the exchange between the disciples of the alchemy sect, the Sword Sect specially allocated a sum of money. In the end, they allocated a sum of money to Loneliness. How could the Sword Sect not investigate?” Zhu Cong raised his eyebrows. “No one told the deacon?”

“You never know.”

Su Mingli lowered his voice. “I think there must be a problem with the distribution of benefits.’

Zhu Cong shook his head and said, “It’s definitely a problem in this aspect. Otherwise, that guy has controlled the Sword Clan’s logistics for so many years and is completely fine. How could he have fallen here?”

At the side, Su Bancheng interrupted, “It’s also possible that something unexpected happened, so we might as well sell him out.”

Su Mingli did not say anything. After all, Zhu Cong’s thief sect was an unorthodox sect. It was normal for unorthodox sects to despise and gossip about the righteous path, but his Tian Ji Sect was not. He was on the same side as Sword Sect.

Su Ruyu listened to Su Mingli and Zhu Cong’s conversation and frowned. “Father, if the Yin World’s matter is the same as the Sword Sect’s, then…

Su Mingli smiled and waved his hand. “Don’t worry. When we bribed him back then, we asked around. Although this Xiong Jian is only a ghost general and the asking price is very high, he only obtained 10% of it. The remaining 90% was taken away by the people behind. If anything happens to Xiong Jian, he will pull out carrots and bring out a large group of people.”

Zhu Cong added, “Furthermore, even if this Ghost General confessed, we still have a backup plan. Don’t forget, I risked my Dao injury to transfer the karma.”

Hearing this, Su Ruyu finally felt relieved.

He did not take all the food for himself.

That was fine.

It shouldn’t be a big problem.

Bang!

“It’s not a big problem?” “There’s a big problem.”

“Bang!”

A yin-world treasure, the Glazed Lamp, was directly thrown to the ground by a jade-like hand. In an instant, this Glazed Lamp, which could make rogue cultivators beat the brains out of pigs, shattered.

On the ground, the Netherworld Cave, Ghost Marquis, and Ghost Generals who were kneeling wished they could bury their heads under the tiles.

They trembled under the anger of the empress who was standing in the upper position.

Protector Zuo stood at the side with his head lowered. The Yin Qi sword in his arms was cold and sharp.

The empress looked down from above and looked at the group of people kneeling in front of her expressionlessly. She sneered.

The next second.

The empress said furiously.

“You Lian!”

“Your Majesty.”

You Lian came from a clean background and waited for the empress’s orders!

“Investigate!” “Investigate in the direction of hell.”

“Good, very good.”

“I thought it was a thief entering the house. I didn’t expect it to be a house thief.’

“I want to see how many thieves I have here.”

The Water Empress was extremely furious. She was so angry that she laughed. She looked at You Lian and said, “Go to the Six Paths of Reincarnation and use the Samsara Wheel to investigate. If you find anything, throw it into the Nine

Nether.”

You Lian cupped her fists and accepted the order.

The expressions of the Ghost Lords and Ghost Generals who were kneeling on the ground changed drastically when they heard this. One of the magistrates looked up and tried to admonish him.

“Your Majesty, you can’t. Reincarnation…”

“Bang!”

As soon as he finished speaking, he instantly turned into ashes!

Some of the people around the netherworld trembled when they saw this scene.

The empress was furious to the extreme. Instead, a beautiful smile appeared on her lips. “No, heh. I want to see who else can say no. Coincidentally, I was just worried that there were too few ghosts in the Federation’s underworld. I can use this opportunity to replenish the nine underworlds in the Federation’s underworld.”

As soon as these words were spoken.

The Underworld Marshals and Ghost Marquises, who had wanted to stand up and persuade him, knelt on the ground with ashen faces.

The Yin World was not a secular world. There was no soil environment where the ruler of a dynasty needed to share the world with anyone.

In the Yin World.

The empress, who controlled the power of the tunnel, was the only one in the Yin World.

“You Lian!”

“Your Majesty.”

“I’m going now.”

The empress’s lips curled into a cold and beautiful smile. She slowly turned around and sat on her throne. She looked at the 36 netherworld officers, 108 ghost marquises, and eight ghost generals kneeling in the hall. “How dare you join forces with outsiders to steal my things? Good, very good!”

You Lian cupped her fists again and left.

The next second.

There was a thud.

A ghost general kneeling in the hall, whose name was Xiong Jian when he was alive, could no longer suppress the fear in his heart. His eyes rolled back and he fainted under the empress’s gaze.

The empress, who was watching this scene on the stage, was expressionless. The corners of her mouth were extremely cold.

This time.

The Yin World was filled with black clouds.

The empress was furious.

He collapsed to the ground, his body hunched like a shrimp. From time to time, lava and ice would spurt out of his body. There were even countless arrowheads that appeared as he screamed in pain.

“Mercy, Your Majesty.”

“Give me a break.”

“I was wrong, Your Majesty.”

Xiong Jian, who was not in the Nine Underworlds, but was suffering the punishment of the Nine Underworlds, begged for mercy in pain.

Lady You Lian looked at Xiong Jian, who was trying to crawl, and directly kicked him out, preventing him from trying to crawl not far away. Standing at the window and looking at the scenery outside, he disturbed the empress’s enjoyment of the scenery.

Xiong Jian’s painful cries lasted for hundreds of years.

After a while.

The empress, who was admiring the unchanging scenery of the Yin World, gently moved her right hand and retracted the Time Technique that enveloped the male ghost general.

The next second.

The empress’s quiet voice sounded.

“You only have one chance. Speak.”

When Gui Jian Xiongjian heard this, he endured the Nine Nether Punishment and struggled to get up from the ground. He knelt in the direction of the empress. This time, Lady You Lian, who was standing at the side, did not kick.

The empress slowly turned around.

“Who’s the thief?”

“Yes…”

Ghost General Xiong Jian quivered. Just as he was about to tell them about how he had accepted the Yin Yang Sect’s bribe, a strange expression flashed across his eyes.

The next second.

“It was a human martial artist called Zuo Lei who bribed me. He was the one who stole His Majesty’s spider lily.”

“Zuo Lei.’

“Yes, it is.”

The empress’s cold gaze fell on Gui Jian. She sneered and said, “I asked you to guard the River Styx for me. This is how you guard it.”

Ghost General Xiong Jian sobbed, “Your Majesty, I know my mistake.”

“Recognize your mistake?”

“Huh.”

“Too late.”

The empress sneered and looked at You Lian. “Soul -Reaping, bring him here.” You Lian obeyed and turned around.

As the saying went, if the underworld wanted you dead at midnight, who would dare to keep you alive until the fifth watch?

Even if it was an old monster with 5,000 years of lifespan left, it would be useless even if he had 10,000 years of lifespan.

The empress then turned her gaze back to Gui Jiang. “Is there anything else you want to tell me? Speak.”

The empress’s voice was quiet and did not sound angry.

‘But…

At this moment, the male ghost general was terrified to the extreme. Almost subconsciously, he told everyone who had sold the spider lilies to the cultivation families in the past few hundred years.

He did not hold back at all.

Even the gatekeeper of the Yin World, who had helped him open the door only once in the beginning and had even reincarnated into the Federation, had been told about it.

NO matter now big or small It was.

He told them how many bribes he had received and how many people had participated in this distribution.

The more the empress listened, the gentler her expression became.

However, before the male ghost general could stop speaking, the empress, who was already smiling, could no longer hold back. She raised her right hand and gently waved her palm at the male ghost general ten meters away.

In an instant!

Dazzling fireworks bloomed in the empress’s study room.

You Lian, who had just entered, saw this scene and couldn’t help but stop in her tracks. Then, without even looking at the falling flames, she walked in front of the empress.

“Your Majesty.”

“Where’s the thief?”

“Not in the Six Paths of Reincarnation.

“Yes?”

“The Book of the Six Paths of Reincarnation has no record of it.
