Chapter 1268: Entering South City
erson!Ugh!If only I had known this earlier, wouldn't it be better to be aloneYe Fusheng quickly withdrew his dagger and stammered, “You’ve lost so much blood, your breath is escaping you... I’m sorry,...Chapter 1268: Entering Nancheng
Chapter 1268: Entering Nancheng
The beasts that could be banished here were certainly not ordinary beasts. Even in desperation, they would howl and roar. To prevent the sound from disturbing the crowd, a special formation was set up in this stone prison to specifically block sound.
Although the formation isn't powerful, it's definitely not something an ordinary person could shout out.
Ye Fusheng looked at the two guards, puzzled: "What is the official saying What is cultivation I just shouted after you and you came."
From the outside, his soul looked much like an ordinary soul.
The guard on the right was furious: "Presumptuous! To even dare to conceal this! We just heard clearly it was a beast's voice. You are human, how could you make such an animal sound!"
Ye Fusheng's face darkened. Due to the suddenness of the incident and his haste, there were indeed too many loopholes. However, it didn't matter. The shout was mainly to lure people over, and the purpose had been achieved.
No more talking.
Breath leaked out in an instant, the whole person shot up from the ground. Due to the circumstances, there was no chance to give them a moment to catch their breath; they arrived before the two in the blink of an eye, grabbing their necks with both hands.
He uttered indifferently, "I only need to exert a little force, and you will be scattered into oblivion. Therefore, from now on, I ask what I want, and you answer truthfully. If you conceal anything, I won't mind personally sending you to nothingness, understand"
Two guards were dumbfounded.
I'm really stupid.
His spirit fluctuated, waxing and waning.
They stared at Ye Fusheng before them, still clueless about what had happened. How did this guy appear in front of them How did he grab their necks
Who is he
"Did you hear that!"
Ye Fusheng's hand exuded a faint aura, just one more push and he could completely crush their souls.
Until now.
The two guards finally realized they were being held hostage!
This has never happened in the thousand-year history of Fengdu. You have to know, guardians are completely different from ghost messengers. Ghost messengers maintain order, while guardians represent the power of Fengdu.
This guy's actions are tantamount to challenging the underworld!
Suddenly enraged, his eyes blazed with fury, wanting to resist.
Ye Fusheng exerted himself once more: "Last chance, resist one last time, or die!"
He didn't want to cause a "death" incident. After all, dying in the Underworld meant complete annihilation, especially since his relationship with the Emperor of the Underworld was currently strained...
But at times of necessity, one can only look after oneself.
This time.
Two guards finally felt the power, a hint of shock appeared in their eyes. They couldn't understand how such a person could appear here. They looked at each other, both nodding slightly.
Ye Fusheng said again: "Next, I will let you go. You can try to see if you are faster or I am faster. To put it mildly, when your merits are fulfilled and you are reincarnated, you can all be born into wealthy and noble families. There is no need to waste your future..."
He let go of the two people after he finished speaking.
They didn't run or shout as expected. Ye Fusheng's last words actually hit the mark, making them realize there was no need to fight desperately. They just needed to set a subtle trap in his question-and-answer session, and he would fall right into it. Why risk everything when he would willingly walk into their snare
Who are you
"What would you like to ask"
Two ghosts spoke at the same time.
Ye Fusheng naturally wouldn't answer, and instead asked, "If we don't use your waist cards, is there a way to get out of here and into the south city"
Without waiting for a reply, he said again: "You don't have to say it out loud. You turn around and write the answer on my hand. Later, he will also write it. If the answers are different, you two will die together!"
Hey!
The two froze, could it be like this
There's no way to set a trap anymore.
They looked at each other again, both seeing the fear in each other's eyes. They were stumped and couldn't make up anything believable. For safety, they could only tell the truth.
The left guard writes first.
Then the guards on the right.
They wrote exactly as they said.
Besides using waist cards, one can also use official aura, which in simpler terms means injecting their breath into it, similar to essence blood. With this breath, they only need to continue southwest for half an hour and they will arrive.
This is also done to prevent guards and ghouls from accidentally entering, deliberately leaving behind loopholes.
But Ye Fusheng didn't intend to let them inject him. He decided to take the waist card, after all, he sneaked in. After they separated, they would definitely search extensively. The official air could very likely become a breakthrough point, and the waist card could be thrown away.
Then he asked, “Is the edge an entrance, or can you enter from anywhere”
This answer is more pleasing.
It is accessible from anywhere, meaning that the area connecting South City and East City has no fortifications or similar defensive structures. There are gates everywhere.
Ye Fusheng asked again: “If I travel directly west, what will I encounter Are there guards or specters there”
They considered this for a long time.
It's not entirely accurate, but it's close enough. Ye Fusheng can understand it. The main issue is that they can't determine the specific location and are hesitant to refuse.
To the west, in a straight line, it must be a gathering place for human souls, probably a marketplace or residential area.
Ye Fusheng pondered for a moment: "Last question, have you heard of someone called Jia Sidao"
Jia Sidao
Two guards answered quickly, shaking their heads at the same time.
Ye Fusheng was not displeased with this answer. Jia Sidao had long since vanished, and mentioning his name was merely a distraction.
Looking at the two people in front of me, I suddenly felt awkward and didn't know how to handle the situation.
Killing... it's unnecessary, because it would surely be discovered. As long as they don't return, someone is bound to come looking. If we kill them, things will become much more complicated.
He does not kill, and yet he doesn't know how to restrain himself.
If it were in the flesh, all that would be needed is to bite one's finger and with a hand gesture set up an array to trap it. But now that it's a soul, there's no blood, and no way to set up an array.
"Come with me!"
Yè Fúshēng snatched the Soul-Binding Whip from the hands of the two men and tied it around their wrists. "You send me into Nánchéng, and as long as I enter, I will not make things difficult for you."
This is the only way we can do it, just let them follow along and delay the time of discovery.
Two guards almost lost their composure upon hearing this. If that were the case, why ask so many questions
"Let's go!"
Ye Fushen urged, "At top speed!"
The two guards could only move forward.
With their badges on, their footsteps down the mountainside indeed changed, each one distinct. One could clearly feel the progress; perhaps it was due to the pressure Ye Fusheng had exerted, or maybe they were eager to escape, moving faster than anticipated.
Just a short incense stick's time.
Having reached the edge of the domain, though not falling through, I stood on a slope overlooking Nancheng. Looking straight south, I could faintly see souls queuing to enter the city. They went into the Judgment Hall and then walked out one by one.
Don't be fooled by the long queue, it only occupies a negligible portion of all of Nancheng.
And the Nancheng of today, it can be said to be vast and boundless!
It looks like an ancient city.
Buildings of glazed brick and tile, the streets straight as an arrow, lanes crisscrossing everywhere, stretching far into the distance. There are at least millions upon millions of homes.
"How can I possibly find this"
Ye Fusheng's heart was heavy. This place was truly enormous. If he were to search every corner, it would probably take him years, not to mention that he only had less than two days. And during those two days, he had to avoid being caught!
"Hall of Judgment…"
Ye Fusheng looked ahead. At this point, there was only one way left.
Without any prefix, he ran down the slope, swiftly dashing into Nancheng and merging with the crowd.
Two guards stood dumbfounded.heard the Heavenly Official's voice transmission: if they mishandled the situation, the Heavenly Emperor would deal with them. They all made up their minds.In an instant, they merged into their bodie...
