Chapter 232: The God of the Underworld, Full of Resentment
The Later Tang Imperial Palace.

Two figures, one black and one white, were like ghosts. They walked straight into the palace without any scruples, and the guarding soldiers did not notice anything at all.

"Brother, it's a retribution. I didn't expect that the higher-ups would send us to snatch the soul of Li Xingyun."

"Little sister, who says it's not true? Thousands of years later, you and I are still upright gods of the underworld, while those high and mighty figures of the past have become ancient and turned into dust."

"But, in the final analysis, we are still lucky..."

Chang Haoling's mind was filled with thousands of thoughts at once. Following the orders of the four corpse ancestors, the Xuanming Sect was reorganized and infiltrated into the Netherworld. The former Black and White Impermanence had never expected that they would actually become subordinates of the Ten Yin Marshals and become subordinates of the Wuchang Division.

All I can say is it’s fate!
The two men ignored the palace walls and went straight to the dragon bed. Looking at Li Xingyun who was still sleeping, they couldn't help but chuckle.

"A fierce ghost seduces the soul, and impermanence demands life!"

"Li Xingyun, you've committed a crime, come with us!"

Chang Xuanling and Chang Haoling used the soul-catching chain to easily hook Li Xingyun's soul out of his body.

"Black and White Impermanence? Didn't you two die a long time ago? Am I dreaming?"

"This is……?!!"

Li Xingyun suddenly saw himself lying on the dragon bed, and then looked at his own condition.

"Am I... dead?!!"

"Li Xingyun, now that the Xuanming Sect has been incorporated into the underworld, we both have stable jobs. We have a lot of grudges, so we will personally summon your soul and send you off. Hahaha!" Chang Xuanling said with a smile.

Li Xingyun felt that this world was off the rails, but no matter how hard he struggled, he could not escape the shackles of the soul-binding chains. He could only be led away by the Black and White Impermanence, stepping into the Yellow Springs and heading straight into the underworld.

at the same time.

In the former Tang palace.

Xie Bian and Fan Wujiu looked at Fan Xian who was sleeping like a dead pig. Naturally, they were not in a good mood when they met as enemies. They forced Fan Xian to go to the underworld without any explanation.

They even put a ghost shackle on Fan Xian!
Fan Xian was really confused. Logically speaking, his position after death should have been determined long ago. His master had promised that he would have a divine position. Why was he going to the underworld now?

Fan Xian smiled flatteringly and said, "Hey, you two, I'm afraid you have locked up the wrong person. I have someone above me, and the Book of Life and Death will definitely..."

"It's you. That's right. We are following the orders from our superiors. You will suffer in the underworld." Xie Bian looked at Fan Xian with a look of satisfaction in his eyes.

Fan Wujiu, who was standing aside, was walking while reading a book. On the book, it was clearly written: The Laws of the Underworld: Three-year compulsory exams and five-year simulations.

Xie Bian couldn't help but twitch his face and said speechlessly: "I say Fan Wujiu, you really read books every day, I've never seen you so exaggerated before!"

Fan Wujiu smiled sheepishly and said, "The big exam in the underworld is coming, and I have to prepare well."

"No, you plan to take the exam? That's a huge exam in hell, there are at least a million candidates, it's no exaggeration to say it's like a million troops crossing a single-plank bridge, rough people like us have no hope."

"Who is a boor? I am a scholar. Which scholar doesn't want to be on the list of successful candidates? Besides, that was the first grand examination in the underworld. How could I not participate in such an extremely fair event?" Fan Wujiu said seriously.

Xie Bian had a strange expression on his face: "Scholar? And you're carrying a knife? Oh, now you have a chain and sickle!"

"I practice martial arts because I have no choice. I have been a scholar since I was a child. When I pass the exam, I will leave the Wuchang Division and become a regional Yin God. Don't be jealous."

Fan Xian: Would you two please consider me?

On the other side, things were pretty normal on the side of King Tang Li Zhongyi, as the two heads of the Wuchang Division took action.

Hei Wuchang complained: "Wuchang works overtime, unpaid overtime. I earn thousands of ghost money a month, which is less than a small merit. Housing is tight in the underworld now, and I have to pay off my car loan. It's really a life of hard work!"

Bai Wuchang said, "Okay, shut up. How can we refuse the mission given by the top? After this trip, let's go to the Netherworld and have a few drinks?"

Hei Wuchang chuckled: "That would be great!"

The underworld, Fengdu ghost city.

In front of the towering city gate, the black city wall seemed to be cast in one piece. There was no end as far as one could see, like a black dragon lying on the wilderness of the underworld.

The three Tang emperors gathered together, without their shackles, and were accompanied by the four great judges of the underworld, Bao Zheng, Song Ci, Di Renjie, and Kou Zhun, all dressed in red robes stained with red ape blood.

"I'm not dead yet!" Fan Xian closed his eyes and asked tentatively.

"Of course he's not dead. But you three are lucky to have arrived at the right time rather than early. You're lucky to have caught the ghost escort that happens once every three days. You can open your eyes and take a look." Bao Zheng, with a dark face and a crescent-shaped forehead, walked up to Fan Xian and said.

The three Tang emperors opened their eyes tremblingly:

"Hurry up and leave!" "You are all dead and turned into ghosts, hurry up."

"Please, please let me go. I'm only forty-six years old. I'm still young. I don't want to die. I'll give you money, lots of it. Brother Ghost Messenger, please let me go!"

"Hahahaha, once you enter the underworld, there is no way back. The wealth and honor of the world are nothing in my underworld!"

Snapped!
Snapped!
The tall and burly ghost soldiers had ferocious faces and scolded the newly born ghosts, waving whips made of twisted dragon tendons and bones to whip them. The whips were surrounded by Yin Qi and flashed with purple and black electric light. They whipped the ghosts fiercely, causing them to wail incessantly.

Especially the ghost that begged for mercy just now was whipped dozens of times, and the whipping stopped only when the ghost became thin and was about to dissipate.

"hurry up!"

The tall and burly ferocious ghost soldier in front, with a black glow all over his body, stared at the other slow ghost and roared.

What the three Tang emperors saw was a long dragon formed by countless illusory figures, most of whom were wearing armor, carrying broken arrows, and moving slowly forward.

There were many ghost soldiers standing guard nearby, shouting and cursing at will. Some of these illusory figures shook their heads and sighed, some cried loudly, some shouted and cursed, and some were stunned and confused.

"My father is the Golden Winged Demon King of Northern Juluzhou. How dare you hit me?"

"what!"

The arrogant demon young man was pinned to the ground by a ghost soldier, who put him in soul-locking shackles and beat him until he was almost reduced to ashes.

These ghosts were escorted by ghost officers and soldiers to the gate of the capital city for questioning and examination. They entered one by one. On both sides of the gate stood two officials from the underworld. They were wearing black official robes and holding soul-catching chains and mourning sticks. They looked very scary.

This is the city guard of Fengdu City, responsible for recording the comings and goings of ghosts and living people.

Fan Xian and the other three were watching from the side, and in such a short period of time, they realized that everything in the world was nothing here, and all beings were equal.

Li Xingyun looked at the ghost officers and soldiers and couldn't help but take a breath of cold air: "Are the ghost officers in the underworld so cruel?"

"Not really. They will still be friendly to some kind-hearted people who have great virtues."

"But, it is inevitable that people in this world will make mistakes and have their hands stained with sin. They are more vicious so that the majesty of our underworld can be reflected."

The four judges bowed and explained:
"And as you can see, there aren't many people who deserve their actions. Most of them are those who refuse to be educated. It's only right that they teach them a lesson."

The three emperors looked at each other and felt that the four judges had bad intentions. They couldn't help but ask, "May I ask why you invited the three of us here?"

Song Ci said, "It is because of the endless wars between the three kingdoms that the pressure on our underworld has increased suddenly, so I invite the three Tang emperors to come to the underworld for a talk."

Bao Zheng said coldly: "Look, my underworld officials collect the souls temporarily detained from the city gods and land gods in various places every three days, but don't you think that the number of souls is too many?"

The three Tang emperors looked at each other in silence.

Di Renjie said: "The heaven and earth have their own cause and effect, and the underworld also has its own destiny. If you start a war without reason, the emperor will be angry, and millions of people will be killed and blood will flow. But part of this sin will eventually be counted on your heads, affecting your merits and virtues."

"When the time comes for you to die, it will be the day of reckoning for you all. Moreover, there is a Tiangang star who has dared to disrupt yin and yang and the cycle of reincarnation."

The four judges looked at Li Xingyun meaningfully. Yuan Tiangang himself has the status of a god, so no one would care about him even if he were immortal.

But others are different.

As the emperor of Later Tang, Li Xingyun relaxed restrictions and allowed Yuan Tiangang to refine the elixir of immortality in order to compete with the other two countries. He will be held accountable one day.

In other words, the Jade Emperor is not in office these days, but when he comes back, Yuan Tiangang will have a good time.

Kou Zhun shook his head and said, "Let's ask them to come with us four judges to travel the underworld together. Seeing it with their own eyes will always be more shocking."

---

"This is the City of the Dead..."

"This is the Tongue-Pulling Prison..."

"This is the Copper Pillar Prison..."

"This is hell..."

"These are the eight cold hells, these are the eight hot hells..."

The layers of hell are all overcrowded. The officials in the underworld reward the good and punish the evil. The stamps they use to stamp are about to burst into flames, and the judge's pen is also tending to dry out.

I can't finish it, I can't finish it at all.

The Ministry of Impermanence is the most burdensome, with an extremely heavy workload. The righteous gods in the underworld are filled with resentment and are in urgent need of talent. This is why there is a big test in the underworld to select talents.

The three Tang emperors also felt their scalps tingling and were speechless. It seemed that they had... really gone too far in recent times!
