Meanwhile, Cui Qingning had gotten out of the carriage, and a wisp of excitement appeared on her face when she saw the golden-robed young man and she said, "Sixth Cousin Brother!"
The young man laughed out loud and said, "When I heard you are actually going through the Bloodbasin Hardlands this time, I was worried to the point that I couldn't sleep well for a few days. I can finally sigh in relief now that you have arrived here safely. "
Cui Qingning's eyes reddened as she said in a low voice, "Thank you for your concern, Sixth Cousin Brother."
The young man waved his hand and said, "Qingning, don't treat me like an outsider. This is something I have to do. All right, let's get back to town together. I've arranged for all of you to stay, and I'll have a banquet to celebrate your arrival once everything is arranged! "
As he spoke, he pulled Cui Qingning's hand and walked towards the city.
"Ready-ready! Back to town! ”One of the maids standing behind the young man roared.
After which, all the well-equipped and brave guards rumbled as they gathered around the young man and Cui Qingning before heading to Darkcliff City, and it was an incredible sight.
Gu Tian led the group of guards to follow closely behind.
"It was the Third Elder of the Cui Clan, Cui Fang Hu's eldest son, and he was the sixth among the younger generation in the clan. He called out to Cui Ming, and he was Young Miss's cousin. Currently, he was in charge of Darkcliff City and held the position of City Governor. "Gu Tian quickly explained to Chen Xi through a voice transmission. “Year talent Young Master Cui Ming has been outstanding since a young age, and he was born together with the soul of a Qilin. He was an outstanding genius in the Cui Clan, and he had a cultivation at the 5th level of the Eternal Earth Realm. If it wasn't for the internal strife within the clan, his natural talent and strength would be enough for him to hold a post in the Punishment Bureau. "
Chen Xi nodded. "She's really an amazing person."
Gu Tian's expression couldn't help but stiffen when he heard this, and he said to himself, This kid at the Golden Core Realm looks humble, he said, however I never expected that he spoke with a somewhat arrogant .. If it was any other expert in the Golden Core Realm, then, would any of them dare to judge Young Master Cui Ming like this?
Chen Xi was very attentive to the subtle change in Gu Tian's expression, and she could not help but be amused. I am a Peak Ruler at the 8th level of the Eternal Earth Realm, could it be that I am unable to judge the existence at the 5th level of the Eternal Earth Realm?
But he did not express his thoughts and avoided another misunderstanding from happening.
'' Brother Gu Tian, what kind of existence is that from the Punishment Bureau? Why wasn't it grouped together with the Six Paths of Hell? "Chen Xi could not help but ask.
Gu Tian was stunned, and then he remembered that Chen Xi was not someone from the Netherworld and it was understandable that Chen Xi was not aware of this. So he immediately explained. "The Bureau of Punishment is the Netherhell Courthouse that used to exist in the past, and specializes in the assessment and measurement of punishment. He had an unusually great authority that was higher than Six Paths of Hell, but lower than the hall of the Ten Kings of Hell. It was the central organization in Netherhell. "
Chen Xi could not help but be shocked in her heart. This way, since the Cui Clan from which Cui Qingning came from was able to control the Punishment Bureau, it was definitely an incredible giant in Netherhell.
…
Darkcliff City was prosperous. The building with its crude and simple style yet did not lose its sense of beauty and breadth could be found throughout the city, and it was completely different from the exquisite and exquisite style of the Mortal Dimension.
This is the first Netherworld city that Chen Xi entered, and the first feeling that came to my mind was – oddities!
Ghostly fire strands that were in many colors like indigo, sky blue, deep red, and orange floated all over the street and looked extremely beautiful.
Under each strand of ghostly flames were spirits that floated. Just like everyone else walking down the street, these spirits were selling various items, and there were old people, young girls, and little children among them, which makes it a rather remarkable sight.
These spirits were not like evil spirits and ferocious spirits, all of them had calm expressions that showed a hint of weakness.
"These "Nether Spirits were formed from souls unwilling to be reborn, and they lived in the Netherworld and assisted the Nether Clan in performing tasks. They are loyal and steadfast. Some Nether Nether who did well could even obtain techniques to cultivate. "Gu Tian couldn't help but explain with a smile when he saw Chen Xi's interested expression.
"My horizon has indeed been expanded." Chen Xi sighed in her heart. Such scenes can be considered unique in three dimensions.
"If you're interested, there's no harm in taking some Nether Souls as a servant. They are truly loyal, steadfast, and will obey your every word, "said Gu Tian.
Chen Xi shook her head and said, "Forget it."
Gu Tian smiled and did not speak any further.
Meanwhile, waves of agitated movements and chaos appeared suddenly on the road ahead.
"Hmm? Someone actually dared to block the path of Young Master Cui Ming? "Gu Tian was stunned and muttered. “This shouldn't have happened. He was the City Governor of Darkcliff City. Who would dare to do this? "
Chen Xi's Eternal Perception stretched out, and he instantly saw the scene ahead to the smallest detail in his mind.
…
Cui Ming who was wearing a golden robe had a somewhat gloomy expression.
There was a man and woman standing in front of Cui Ming. The man was tall and gallant, and there was a glaring evil spirit tattoo on his forehead that seemed to intend to swallow his enemies, causing them to emit a ferocious and savage aura.
These male and female auras were actually on par with Cui Ming, and they were clearly experts in the Eternal Earth Realm.
At this moment, it was precisely the two of them who had blocked the path of the group.
"Sister Cui, you really disappointed me for being willing to fight us both for a little girl." The man shook his head and sighed, and his face was covered with an expression of pity.
“Could Brother Cui feel that the conditions we provide are not enough? If so, everything can be discussed. As long as you hand over the little girl, I can even decide on behalf of my Lord to move you to the Path of Ghosts and hold the position of Judge of Life! ”The red-haired and black-clothed woman smiled gently and spoke slowly.
"Liu Jun, Rui Qing, don't blame me for being rude if you two don't step aside!" Cui Ming frowned while an icy cold expression appeared in the space between his brows, and his voice was firm and without room for discussion.
"So, you've decided to fight us?" Liu Jun frowned, and the evil spirit tattoo on his forehead seemed to have come back to life and was suffused with a terrifying dark red color.
"Enough. Liu Jun, could it be that you have not sensed that Sixth Young Master Cui values the little girl so much? ”Rui Qing smiled gently as he interjected, and then he slowly stretched out three fingers and shook them in front of Cui Ming as he said, “Sixth Young Master Cui, we will not make things difficult for you, we will not trouble you, and we'll give you three days to consider. We'll come again then. But if you still act that way at that time. "He did not finish talking about the consequences, but the threatening intent in them was clearly displayed.
In the next moment, Rui Qing grabbed Liu Jun's hand before tearing apart space and disappearing rapidly.
"Hmmm!" Cui Ming let out a cold snort while his face became extremely gloomy. He never imagined that they would become arrogant in such a way and block him right in the streets. They just broke the law!
"Sixth Senior Brother, what happened?" Cui Qingning got off the carriage, and her petite face was filled with worry. He was on the train earlier and coupled with Cui Ming, Liu Jun, and Rui Ming utilizing voice transmissions to communicate, he did not hear what they were saying.
But even at that time, he still deeply noticed that they seemed to be somewhat hostile towards his sixth cousin's brother.
"It's okay. Quickly get on the train. Let's go back to the estate first, "Cui Ming smiled, and his expression instantly became warm and bright.
"Yes." Yeah." Cui Qingning nodded.
The group continued to advance but the atmosphere of the group seemed to be a little oppressive.
Previously, Chen Xi had noticed everything that was happening, but because she was afraid of disturbing them, she did not interfere in the conversation between Cui Ming and the other two people.
However, he could faintly sense that they seemed to be coming for Cui Qingning as their gazes unseen locked onto the carriage where Cui Qingning lived as they spoke.
It seems like even if we enter Darkcliff City, the situation of the little girl is still very bad. Now everything depended on whether Cui Ming was trustworthy .. Chen Xi seemed to be deep in thought.
"If I'm not mistaken, those two people might be the two Life Judges of the Ghost Road," Gu Tian spoke up abruptly. “The Ghost Road is tasked with suppressing evil and freeing the soul. They were like Dimensional Mortal executioners and were most skilled at torturing and punishing evil spirits. Just like the Path of Hell, the hands of every Judge of Life were tainted with countless spirit blood. All of them were cruel, bloodthirsty, and extremely cold and emotionless. I wonder why Young Master Cui Ming would be entangled with them. ”
Chen Xi knew that in Six Paths of Hell, those who control six paths are called Grand Ministers and below are Life Judges who specialize in handling the affairs of every single street and have immense authority.
Each Life Judge passed through a strict selection, and the only criterion in the selection was strength! Supposedly, almost all experts who held the position of Life Judge within the Six Paths of Hell were formidable figures, and their strength was at Level 5 of the Eternal Earth Realm or above. Moreover, their combat strength was extremely formidable and they were all ruthless figures who killed without batting an eye.
As for the Great Ministers, they usually rarely appeared, and their strength was unexpected. They were existences equivalent to the Grand Nether Spring Grand, Grandmother Master Meng Hall, and the five Ghost Emperors.
I wonder in whose hands Netherhell's great figure fell to Xiuyi. I should try asking him if I have the chance and see who is able to utilize a Saint Artifact like the Netherworld Disk. But he was clearly aware that his worries were futile until his strength recovered.
So he could only slowly make a step-by-step plan.
…
Darkcliff City, the City Governor's Estate.
It is a very large land that contains small bridges over flowing water, pavilions, and a rather elegant environment.
It was only when one carefully observed that one would see that the entire Estate of the City Governor was heavily guarded. There were layers upon layers of well-equipped guards standing on duty throughout, and they protected the safety of the entire estate both openly and secretly.
After they arrived here, Chen Xi was arranged to stay in the courtyard to bathe and rest. As soon as night fell, Cui Ming would hold a banquet in the main hall to celebrate the arrival of Cui Qingning and the others, and Chen Xi was among the invited.
Of course, he had benefited from being associated with Cui Qingning. After all, the aura he revealed right now was really too weak, and it was even inferior to the guards in the estate.
Chen Xi was helpless against this because she couldn't just reveal an entirely new cultivation realm overnight, right? If that happened, it would be too dazzling and easily cause too many misunderstandings.
Nevermind, I will use this time to gather the Netherworld Energy within the corpse of the Spirit King of Xue Kong and narrow the Netherworld List. After taking a bath, Chen Xi felt refreshed and she pondered for a moment before deciding.
He was extremely curious about what secrets would be hidden within the Netherworld Register once his energy recovered to the point it could be unlocked.
