Chapter 156 The King of Hell is easy to see, but the devil is difficult to deal with (4) The Emperor’s Palace, also known as the Palace of Hell by the world, is the highest power palace in Fengdu Ghost City, because the person who lives in it is the highest administrator in the underworld.

It's just that although this place was once jokingly called the Palace of the King of Hell by the world, it does not belong to the King of Hell, but to the King of Ghosts in Fengdu Ghost City, because the place where the King of Hell lives is the Ten Palaces of the Palace of the King of Hell.

Although it belongs to the underworld, it does not belong to Fengdu Ghost City. In Fengdu Ghost City, such a place naturally belongs to the Ghost King.

During this period of time, after the ghost king left, the one who had been enforcing the law in the Emperor's Palace of Fengdu Ghost City was Judge Cui Yu who performed his duties on his behalf. Although Cui Yu originally also worked here, things are different now.

In addition to the rewards and punishments of his job, Cui Yu faces the task of commanding tens of thousands of ghost servants in the underworld and managing the wandering souls in Fengdu City. Even at this time, Cui Yu has more power than he did in the past.

The King of Hell, who is taller than him, is slightly better. After all, the responsibility of the King of Hell is to supervise the law enforcement in each hell and the sinful souls in the hells, but Cui Yu has to manage everything except the rights of the King of Hell.

As the saying goes, with great power, people's self-confidence will also increase. But for Cui Yu, this kind of thing is not just that. It is even one of the things that Cui Yu has been troubled by recently. After all, he is very

He knew that he was just a judge of the underworld. Although he was not a low-level official in the underworld, he was definitely not the one with the highest authority to rule the underworld. However, he had to carry out such a heavy responsibility at this time, and it was inevitable that he would be taking the lead.

But even if Cui Yu is helpless, he has to do this, because if he is not ordered to take over all this, then the underworld will be even more chaotic. After all, here, it is a power society with intrigues.

Cui Yu is loyal to the King of Ghosts, the King of Hell, and the Heaven Realm. He has no ambitions and just wants to do his job well, because this is his nature before he became a judge. Otherwise, he would not

Gaining their trust, however, this does not mean that everyone in the underworld is like this. As mentioned just now, the underworld is also a society, and it is also a society full of classes. Even in the underworld, the class he exists in

It is even more obvious. After all, what is pursued here is always the centralized power system of feudal society. Status represents everything, rights represent everything, and if you have rights and status, you also have everything.

At this time, a turmoil that has not appeared in the underworld for thousands of years is brewing. When the only king who can suppress the ghosts in Fengdu City is not in Fengdu Ghost City, this turmoil is about to brew and happen.

When the Ghost King comes back, if the overall situation has been decided by then, then no one can change this fact. At that time, even the supreme heaven can only make a favored decision and elect the final winner to become the king of all ghosts.

king

After all, the reason why the Ghost King was able to become king in the underworld and dominate all this was because he had gone through a series of changes, and the heaven had no way to change this fact, and he had achieved his majesty for tens of thousands of years. At this time

, what these people have to do is to copy the situation again and achieve everything that belongs to them.

Everything is the same as before. The king of the underworld has passed away, and the underworld is like a beach of loose sand. There is no manager, and no one who can unify the king appears. At this time, all kinds of careerists take advantage of the situation.

The best time to enter, although there is Cui Yu, the judge in the underworld, who is temporarily responsible for managing Fengdu City in the underworld, but Cui Yu is Cui Yu. After all, he is not the ghost king. The gap between him and the ghost king is

There is simply nothing that can be used to make up for it. The Ghost King's majesty, prestige in the underworld, and abilities that he has always possessed cannot be replaced by anyone. Even if Cuiyu practices for tens of thousands more years, his achievements cannot surpass the Ghost King.

After the Ghost King left, those with ulterior motives began to prepare their plans, including the timing of the attack, the personnel to launch the attack, and all related plans. Logically speaking, the Ghost King had been away for several years, and their preparations could also be said to be

Everything is ready and all they need is the east wind, and this is the time when they are ready to launch all this, because at this time, for someone, they can no longer wait.

But even this seemingly certain plan was broken by Zhang Qi, a completely unexpected person. If this was God's will, then no one seemed to doubt it. After all, Zhang Qi would not have come sooner or later.

, to appear in the underworld at this time, which seems impossible on the surface. Such a thing is absolutely unimaginable by anyone, and it is absolutely unexpected.

However, it was really an unexpected move for Zhang Qi, the night-walking priest, to be involved in this accident, because at this time, Zhang Qi was still waiting for those ghosts to take him to Cui Yu for questioning.

, but who would have thought that Zhang Qi was hung in the cell and waited for several minutes, but no one paid any attention to him. Even when Zhang Qi felt a little tired from being so bored, a burst of crackling suddenly came from the originally quiet cell.

The sound finally brought Zhang Qi back from her daze.

"Hurry up, move quickly, don't let me be lazy, hurry up... As for you, hurry up..." After a burst of footsteps, Zhang Qi suddenly heard such a person shouting suddenly about ten meters away from him.

Immediately afterwards, there was another burst of footsteps, and until the footsteps became less and less, another person's voice came to Zhang Qi's ears again.

"Deputy envoy, what should we do with this man? Isn't he one of ours? Do you want to take him away too? I heard that this man has quite a lot of power, and he might be able to help us."

"Him? Don't worry about him, let him stay here... God knows how he got here. Although his magic power may not be low, if something goes wrong, can you afford the responsibility? Don't help us.

It's not a bad thing to waste time. Besides, everything we have prepared now is enough to take Fengdu City into our hands." After the question, the previous voice immediately scolded in a low voice. After that, the voice said again

"By the way, go find a few people and lock those disobedient people in here. This is the strictest cell in the Fengdu Ghost Prison. If you lock them here, I won't worry...as long as

Don't ruin the general's good deeds. When the time comes, we will not be crowned princes or prime ministers, but we will also be promoted to the third level... How can you, kid, be able to achieve my position, and what about me? I will really be the one by then.

Reaching the sky in one step..." As he said this, this man couldn't help but let out a few evil laughs.

"Yes, let's take care of the humble position now... Deputy envoy, don't forget to promote me when the time comes..." At the same time as the laughter came, another person hurriedly said flatteringly in a low voice.

"Don't worry, what's the benefit? I won't treat you badly. No matter what, you and I will be the first to respond. The general will not forget us..."

After that, Zhang Qi only heard a few sounds of people leaving quickly, and the cell became quiet again. Less than half a minute after the silence passed, the cell became lively again, but this time it wasn't...

It was just the sound of hurried footsteps, but also mixed with the unwilling shouts and curses of several people.

When Zhang Qi heard the scolding voice and was surrounded by soul-catching locks, he couldn't help but chuckle in his heart, because at this time Zhang Qi heard a very familiar voice, but at this time Zhang Qi did not say anything, but until the sound of footsteps

After walking away again, Zhang Qi whispered in a low voice, "Hey, how are you? Are they leaving?"

Although Zhang Qi's voice was not loud at this time, it was like a bomb that caused the yelling and cursing that had been lingering around Zhang Qi to suddenly stop.

"Hey, I'm asking you, have they left? Don't be dumbfounded, answer me quickly..." Seeing that no one answered her, Zhang Qi asked in a low voice again

And it wasn't until a few seconds later that a surprised voice came from beside Zhang Qi, saying, "Zhang... no, no, are you the priest?"

"What do you think? Apart from me, do you think anyone else can be hung here like a sausage? You..." Hearing the sound coming from outside the lock, Zhang Qi couldn't help laughing, and said, "But

Before Zhang Qi could finish her words, an even more surprised voice came from outside, and he hurriedly said:

"Priest, you...why are you here? It's me...it's me, Xu Xiaoxiao, I'm Xu Xiaoxiao...how could you..."

"Nonsense, I didn't know it was you? If I didn't know it was you, could I ask you?" After hearing the voice, Zhang Qi interrupted before he finished speaking.

Indeed, the person who appeared next to Zhang Qi and in the same cell with Zhang Qi at this time was indeed Xu Xiaoxiao, and the people beside Xu Xiaoxiao were not anyone else. They were the same people as Xu Xiaoxiao

, and did not obey the ghost leaders of various regional departments led by the rebels.

"I'm asking you, are there any outsiders around now? If there is no one, I will have to come out for some fresh air. It's almost killing me here." Zhang Qi asked again

"No...no, there are only a few of us in the entire ghost prison...but Priest, what are you..." Xu Xiaoxiao heard Zhang Qi's question and replied hurriedly

"It makes me so uncomfortable to be tied up with these things. If no one is around, I will come out..." Just listening to Zhang Qi's words, the soul locks surrounding Zhang Qi suddenly made a crackling sound, and then the surface of the soul locks appeared

It exploded instantly and turned into countless fragments scattered to the ground. At the moment when the Soul Hooking Lock exploded, Zhang Qi appeared from the Soul Hooking Lock and fell to the ground. In front of Zhang Qi, there was a handle suspended in the air.

Dagger, it's obvious that those soul locks just were torn apart by this suspended dagger

At this time, the reason why Zhang Qi wanted to use a dagger was actually because Zhang Qi found that it was a bit difficult for her to break so many soul locks with her own strength, so she used the black sword to help her escape quickly.

Not to mention, as soon as the black sword came out, these soul-grabbing locks that they thought were very tight turned into pieces like confetti, without causing any damage to the black sword at all. And this is the difference between a divine weapon and an ordinary magic weapon.

The difference between them, otherwise, the artifact would not be so popular

And when Zhang Qi grabbed the dagger suspended in front of him and landed firmly on the ground, before he could move his body that was numb due to not moving for a long time, Xu Xiaoxiao saw that it was indeed Zhang Qi.

After Qi, he knelt down on the ground and saluted Zhang Qi. The officials standing behind Xu Xiaoxiao saw Xu Xiaoxiao like this. Although they didn't quite understand what happened, they clearly appeared in front of them.

This person is definitely much more powerful than them. After all, what they saw just now clearly showed that Zhang Qi was entangled with countless soul hooks. However, this situation, in Zhang Qi's case, did not have any impact on him at all.

It seems that it is effortless to destroy these countless soul locks. But what about them? At this time, they only have three or four soul hooks tied to them, and it is already difficult to move. With such a gap, even if they don't know Zhang Qi's identity

, also understand the gap between them

And in addition, Xu Xiaoxiao, the deputy patrol envoy of the Northern Kingdom, saluted him so greatly, and saluted without saying anything, how could they delay? After looking at each other, they all knelt down to salute Zhang Qi.

"Okay, you all stand up... don't talk to me about so many useless things." Zhang Qi saw that they were all covered with soul hooks, making it difficult for them to move, and they even saluted him. Of course, Zhang Qi couldn't let them do this.

Kneeling down, he said immediately

After saying that, Zhang Qi immediately stepped forward and grasped the locks that bound Xu Xiaoxiao with both hands. Zhang Qi's hands just pulled hard, and several overlapping locks tied to Xu Xiaoxiao's body shattered.

Without the help of any auxiliary weapons, Zhang Qi broke several soul locks with her bare hands. This made the ghosts except Xu Xiaoxiao even more surprised, and they didn't wait for them to recover.

At that time, even the soul hooks on their bodies were easily broken by Zhang Qi

The Soul Hook is the most commonly used weapon by ghosts, and it can also be said to be the weapon they rely on most. However, this thing is as fragile as noodles in front of Zhang Qi. At this time, these ghosts did not get up, but

He was still kneeling on the spot, looking at the soul locks scattered on the ground, and he was still unable to speak.

As for Xu Xiaoxiao, he and Zhang Qi know each other relatively well. Xu Xiaoxiao is not surprised by this kind of thing. After all, Zhang Qi is a nocturnal priest. I believe those ghosts will know Zhang Qi's identity if they know it.

, they will feel like Xu Xiaoxiao that this is simply a reasonable thing.

However, Xu Xiaoxiao did not introduce Zhang Qi's identity at this time. It was not that he didn't want to, but that he simply did not have time, or that he had no chance to introduce Zhang Qi's identity, because Xu Xiaoxiao hurriedly came to Zhang Qi's side.

He whispered to him without any scruples.

"Priest, the underworld is about to be in chaos at this time. It is not suitable to stay here for a long time. I think you should leave quickly..."

"The underworld is about to be in chaos? What's going on?" Zhang Qi certainly had no intention of leaving, but asked Xu Xiaoxiao curiously

But Xu Xiaoxiao, who heard Zhang Qi's words, had no intention of explaining. Instead, he didn't care about the level gap between himself and Zhang Qi, and said to Zhang Qi again.

"Priest, I am here for the sake of your safety. Although the underworld seems to be very peaceful now, this tranquility will not last long, and even chaos will happen soon. You should leave quickly. As long as you take out the gold medal, you will be safe soon."

You can leave here directly without any external factors... you..."

At this time, Xu Xiaoxiao was interrupted by Zhang Qi before he finished speaking. Zhang Qi smiled and said to Xu Xiaoxiao

"Xiao Xiao, you should know very well that I am a nosy person, and you also said that everything I have is destiny. In other words, God let me encounter such a thing at such a time.

, it must have its meaning, right? So even if I want to hide, I definitely can’t hide. I might as well face it directly. Besides, I don’t know what it is yet, how do you know it?

Is this thing bad for me? Maybe I can still get it right..."

With that said, Zhang Qi smiled again, then waved her hand to the ghosts who were kneeling on the ground to stand up, and then continued, "You guys go out to the door and watch, don't let anyone come in to disturb me... I have something to do."

Talk to him"

But after Zhang Qi finished speaking, these ghosts did not leave immediately. Instead, they looked at Zhang Qi with troubled expressions, and then looked at Xu Xiaoxiao.

At this time, it was not that they had not recovered from the shock, but that they really did not know what to do. When Zhang Qi saw this, he wanted to ask them questions, but before Zhang Qi could speak, Xu Xiaoxiao,

He sighed secretly, and then hurriedly replied to Zhang Qi:

"That's right, this is the place where serious criminals are held in the Fengdu Ghost Prison. They imprison us here precisely for this reason, so... so even if the soul hooks on us are lifted, we... we are still
