Although Ye Fei's heart was pounding, seeing Gu Chen being so calm also gained him a lot of confidence, and he immediately contacted Xiu Cha Ming Zun.
After making contact, everyone stood outside the black sea of mist, waiting for Ming Zun to arrive.
"Gu Chen, what should we do when that guy comes later? Do we want to take action directly?" Long Ma asked anxiously.
If you attack the Xiu Cha Ming Zun, it is almost equivalent to declaring war on the Ming Emperor.
"Don't worry, I'll test it out later." Gu Chen said in a deep voice.
The reason why he did not directly step into the Nether Realm was because he wanted to find out the specific status of the Nether Emperor from Xiu Cha Ming Zun first, so that he could be better prepared.
After a while, the fog rolled in front, and Xiusha Mingzun walked out of it alone.
I haven't seen him for more than two years, and Xiu Cha Ming Zun gave people an even more eerie feeling. His pupils were filled with bloodshot eyes, which looked a bit scary.
When he came out of the underworld and saw Gu Chen, he was surprised at first, then sneered and looked at the people headed by Ye Fei.
"I asked you to come back. It's a good thing that you actually brought him here!"
Ye Fei and others were a little panicked when they saw Xiu Cha Ming Zun. After hearing what he said, they didn't know how to answer.
At this time, Gu Chen smiled and spoke. "Gu is also from the Nether Realm. He once made great contributions to my Nether Realm in the God Realm Arena. Why does Ming Zun sound like he doesn't welcome me back?"
Ye Fei heard this and quickly followed what he said. "Yes, Master Xiucha, we met the Overlord by chance outside. He said that he was still willing to be loyal to our underworld, so we brought him back."
"Oh?" Xiu Cha Ming Zun's face was full of sarcasm when he heard the words. Just as he was about to speak, his ears suddenly twitched.
His eyes immediately flickered towards Gu Chen, as if he was considering something.
Gu Chen noticed his expression, narrowed his eyes slightly, and glanced into the depths of the foggy sea.
"It's time for me to employ people in the Underworld. Since you are willing to come back, it's not a bad idea. Come with me."
After speaking, he turned around and walked into the foggy sea.
Ye Fei, Long Ma and others immediately looked at Gu Chen. The attitude of Xiu Cha Ming Zun suddenly changed. This was obviously a scam.
"Now that you've come, let's make peace with it and let's go."
Gu Chen was very calm, took a step forward, and followed Xiu Cha Ming Zun.
Seeing this, the others could only enter the underworld uneasily.
The cold and evil aura of Hades is everywhere around him, with teeth and claws showing and in an extremely active state.
As soon as Ye Fei and several Hades entered this place, they felt their heartbeats speeding up and their blood boiling.
"The environment in the underworld has changed..."
Their faces became a little frightened. The concentration of the devil's energy was enough to increase their cultivation speed several times, but at the same time, there were many evil thoughts in their minds. If their will was not firm enough, they might fall.
"Why, are you even afraid of your own home?" Xiu Cha Ming Zun sneered upon seeing this.
Ye Fei was at a loss when suddenly a soft force enveloped her and several Hades, and the impact on them was immediately relieved a lot.
She quickly looked at Gu Chen gratefully, and it was Gu Chen who took action to protect them.
"snort!"
Xiu Cha Ming Zun snorted coldly when he saw this, but didn't say anything and accelerated towards the depths of the underworld.
Gu Chen protected Ye Fei and the others, the protective radiance on his body was turned on, blocking out all the underworld demonic energy, and he followed behind slowly and unhurriedly.
"I can't see anyone, so where have they gone? Aren't all the people outside the Nether Realm back?"
Passing by many palaces of the underworld, but not a single person could be seen. The palace looked very deserted, and Ryoma immediately secretly thought that something was not right.
Ye Fei and others looked confused. They didn't know what happened in the underworld.
The purple light in Gu Chen's eyes lit up, and he looked in the direction of the Underworld Tower from a distance, trying to figure out everything that happened here. Unfortunately, when he got here, he saw that the divine body was still ineffective.
The ubiquitous underworld demon energy was a huge constraint. He realized that if he fought with the underworld emperor here, the opponent would have a geographical advantage.
After a while, everyone came to the depths of the underworld and saw a majestic black tower from a distance.
It stood there straight, emitting a heart-stopping aura from a distance.
On its periphery, a long Styx River flows endlessly, making a roaring sound.
The first Xiu Cha Ming Zun landed on the dark red ground and stood on the edge of the Ming River waiting for Gu Chen and his party.
They came over from a distance, and when they saw the scene in the River Styx, everyone took a breath.
The Styx River was different from the past. The black river water was now filled with blood cocoons, floating along with the river water.
Some of the blood cocoons are quite intact, while others have long been broken, revealing the stark white bones from inside.
There are quite a few white bones, and some of them still have some traces of flesh and blood, and you can see maggots squirming around, which makes you sick at the sight.
Judging from the clothes worn by the corpses, they were clearly monks from the underworld!
"Could it be that..."
Ye Fei and several Hades turned pale as paper, remembering that every place they passed along the way was empty.
It stands to reason that all the people outside the Nether Realm have returned, and there should be at least hundreds of thousands of them, but none of them can be seen. I am afraid that they have all...
"It's really cruel."
Gu Chen glanced at the River Styx. There were hundreds of thousands of blood cocoons floating on the river. He could sense it through the sight and smell divine body. Some of the people in the blood cocoons had already been completely devoured, while others seemed to have just formed a knot.
Cocoon, life is like a candle in the wind, it may be extinguished at any time.
Although he had expected the cruelty of Emperor Hades, he was still shocked when he saw it with his own eyes.
Everyone landed on the edge of the River Styx, and Ye Fei couldn't help but ask Xiu Cha Ming Zun. "Is everyone dead? Are all the members of my Netherworld buried in the River Styx?"
As a saint in the underworld, she has actually considered this place as her home. Seeing so many of her former companions die, her mood was hard to control.
"Buried? To be precise, they sacrificed themselves."
Xiu Cha Ming Zun turned to look at Ye Fei with disdain and said.
"The Emperor of the Underworld is about to be resurrected, and someone needs to sacrifice his life. As soon as these people returned to the underworld, they felt the call of the Emperor of the Underworld and voluntarily threw themselves into the River of Hades for the Emperor of the Underworld to eat."
"You're farting!"
Ye Fei was furious. He remembered that he felt very uncomfortable when he entered the underworld before, so he blurted out, "I'm afraid that everyone's mind soon fell into despair when they entered the underworld, and they entered the river of Hades unknowingly, right?"
There was a look of disappointment on Xiu Cha Ming Zun's face, "I, a member of the Nether Realm, swore to become a servant of the Ming Emperor when I entered the Nether Realm, so what does it mean to sacrifice your life for him? Ye Fei, as a member of our Ming Dynasty, I
Domain Saint, I thought your faith was firm enough, but I didn’t expect it to be so disappointing.”
"I……"
Ye Fei's face was filled with sadness. Her belief in the Hades Emperor was indeed fanatical. If it had been another way, she would have sacrificed herself for the Underworld without hesitation.
But knowing that Pluto regarded them as food and livestock from the beginning, how could she still uphold her true intentions?
