Chapter 410 Another Night Visit to the Kudo Residence
Chapter 410 Another Night Visit to the Kudo Residence
While watching the television program, Xuan Yue's mind wasn't on it at all. She seemed to be thinking about something else, and asked Li Muyang, "What kind of person is this senior from the Underworld you mentioned? What preparations do I need to make?"
Li Muyang lowered his head and pondered for a moment, then raised his head and said, "You asked me who he is... Well, he's the Lord of Mount Tai in the mythology of the Great Xia Dynasty. But the one I'm taking you to is his reincarnation. He's quite easy to talk to, so you don't need to worry. I'm just leading the way."
“Actually, if it were just going to the underworld, I could send you there myself. However, you still need to find someone, so I thought I'd help you find an acquaintance to guide you and give you a token so things can go smoothly.”
But that Taoist of Destiny was really something, not even offering a token or something.
Daoist of Destiny: I want one too! It's a bit easier to deal with in the primordial world, but the underworld in this world... sorry, that level is too low! I can't possibly ask Houtu for help because of this, can I?
Li Muyang completely ignored the fact that Destiny Daoist's seniority was such that, according to the prehistoric world setting, Destiny was a senior of the generation of Hongjun Ancestor, even lower than Houtu Niangniang in terms of seniority, not to mention that Destiny's strength was among the top in the entire prehistoric world.
In layman's terms, it's the peak of the Primordial Golden Immortal realm, a half-step into the Great Dao.
The Heavenly Dao Saint is comparable to the Primordial Golden Immortal. Of course, the Heavenly Dao Saint is stronger than the Primordial Golden Immortal, mainly because he has the blessing of the Heavenly Dao. In addition to the enhancement at the level of laws, his biggest advantage is that his endurance is much stronger than that of the Primordial Golden Immortal who does not have the Saint status.
Then, the world they are in now is a minor world created by Fuxi under the command of the Eternal Primordial World.
Yes, the creator god of this world is Fuxi.
Therefore, the Taoist of Destiny didn't say anything more. Anyway, the Lord of Mount Tai was related to Fuxi, so it was just a matter of mentioning it briefly.
With Li Muyang's guarantee, Xuan Yue didn't ask any more questions. So far, Li Muyang's promises haven't gone wrong, so they're highly credible.
After eating and drinking their fill and resting for a while, everyone went to their own rooms to rest.
In the stillness of the night...
Squeak~ (sound of door opening)
A dark figure slowly opened the door to Xuan Yue's guest room, flashed to Xuan Yue's bedside, and then reached out a wicked hand...
Just then, Xuan Yue suddenly opened his eyes, startled to see the dark figure reaching out to him from beside the bed! He gripped the blanket tightly, trembling, and said, "You... what do you want to do? Let me tell you! I'm not a casual man! Don't think that just because you're my boss you can do whatever you want! I would never do anything to betray Cang Yue and Morian!"
"555~ I knew it! You really were up to no good!"
Li Muyang's lips twitched, his face darkened, and he immediately raised his middle finger and started spewing, "I... ...
A beautiful Chinese voice was uttered, accompanied by a beautiful melody; all that was missing was a fast-paced accompaniment.
Looking at Xuan Yue, who appeared weak, pitiful, and helpless, clinging tightly to the blanket and refusing to let go, Li Muyang felt a chill run down his spine! Goosebumps covered his entire body! Good heavens! What on earth is going on in your head all day long?
You wouldn't betray Cang Yue and Morian, so why would I betray my Yu Xiu and Ling'er? Who do you think you are? Do you think I'm some kind of easy man?
"...I'm here to take you to find someone! Anyway, the person you're going to pick up in the underworld isn't mine! Go if you want, don't go if you don't want to!" Li Muyang complained through gritted teeth, then turned to leave.
Xuan Yue hurriedly threw off the blanket, caught up with Li Muyang, and grabbed his arm, saying, "No, no, no, just kidding. By the way, won't it bother them if we go at this time?"
Li Muyang curled his lip: "No way! He's on vacation in Hawaii right now! And... put your clothes on before you talk to me! You're a guest in my house! And you're sleeping in the dark?!"
I bought a cup! I can't keep this blanket and sheets!
At this moment, Li Muyang was certain that Xuan Yue's usual seriousness was all an act! To hell with reliable older brother! This is outrageous!
Now, Li Muyang is starting to regret bringing Xuan Yue into the Management Bureau branch!
Xuan Yue chuckled sheepishly and showed off, "Isn't there still a bitter tea seed... cough cough!"
Seeing that Li Muyang was actually engulfed in flames, Xuan Yue was terrified. "My god! You really dare to do this in your own home?!" She quickly stopped her recklessness and, in a few seconds, was dressed and ready, regaining her dashing daytime appearance. With a wave of her hand, she said:
"set off!"
Li Muyang took a deep breath, helplessly covering his face, not wanting to speak anymore. Fine, fine! Get it away quickly! He didn't want to see this thing again for a while! Damn it!
Who would have thought he'd misjudge someone like that! This guy has completely shattered Li Muyang's illusions about Xuan Yue! Absolutely! His image has completely collapsed!
Seeing that Li Muyang completely ignored him and simply walked out, Xuan Yue hurriedly chased after him and explained slowly, "Ahem... I'm sorry, I... well, to be honest, I've always been wary of you... mainly... you might not understand, because you haven't met me, but I... I really have."
Yes, Xuan Yue was indeed afraid that Li Muyang had ulterior motives, because he had actually seen it! The Ancient Xilan Dynasty was, in a sense, also very chaotic! It's just that some of the darkness was hidden and couldn't be brought into the open!
Otherwise, why would Muir V have had so many troubles? You think his experience was an isolated case? No, it was the norm!
This is why, after Muir V did so many outrageous things, the King of Ancient Sylvanas, Xuan Yue, and even the True God Jiu Yue all gave him a way out, and his final fate was merely to guard Princess Mangya's tomb.
Besides the difficulty in killing him, there's also the genuine feeling that Muir V was quite pitiful; his madness has a lot of blame on the ancient Ceylon royal family.
When all his hard work was destroyed, and the ancient civilizations of Selene and Kalenkaia were reduced to ashes, the King of Selene, who had become a true god but was nearing his end, finally regretted that he should not have been so stubborn and pursued power, only caring about the benefits of success while ignoring the price he could not afford.
So in the original story, the King of Ancient Xilan gave everything he had to grant September the power to change everything and even gave her a glimmer of hope... Of course, this doesn't affect the ending, and it still feels pretty cheesy.
I would rather Muir V die directly at the hands of the two protagonists, Liuxing and Shiyue, than see him fail at the hands of the descending god.
Li Muyang didn't say anything more about Xuan Yue's explanation. It was normal. It was hard for someone like Xuan Yue to trust an outsider, especially since Li Muyang had helped him so much. As the saying goes, too much kindness can turn into enmity!
He wiped out a major enemy, healed his sister, and resurrected his wife. Can you believe that this man, who had no connection with you before, just wants to pull you into his organization to work for him?
Xuan Yue admitted she'd met men who were attracted to both men and women before! She didn't know what to do if she were really being used to gain favor! So she kept testing the waters and courting death… just to make her image look bad in Li Muyang's eyes!
Brother! I'm not as good as you think! Don't be so polite with me!
Li Muyang (?_?): "I told you, you people who play with mental power, your hearts are all dirty!"
"Except for Akemi Miyano! Hmm!"
Arriving at the Kudo residence, Li Muyang knew his way around easily. Having learned from his previous experience, he didn't bother with any unnecessary actions and went straight to the study. He mobilized his mental energy to activate the room's barrier and contact Kudo Yusaku.
A short while later, Yusaku Kudo arrived.
"What is it?" Kudo Yusaku asked succinctly, then saw Gengetsu: "Oh, I know. Don't worry, Pivot told me."
After saying that, he took out an ancient and mysterious token with the character "东" (East) in small seal script on one side and tossed it to Xuan Yue.
Well, it's that simple.
Xuan Yue was in a daze: "Uh...it's over?"
Kudo Yusaku tilted his head: "Is it over? Is there a problem? This is my imperial decree. You can just go to the underworld and find the person directly."
"As for what to be careful about... well, just don't look back! There's no turning back in the underworld! Before you leave the underworld, don't look back, only look forward, otherwise your souls might be tainted by the underworld's energy... Of course, it's okay if you are tainted, anyway, there's that kid Li Muyang who can cure it."
Seeing that Xuan Yue hadn't come to her senses yet, Li Muyang silently extended his hand and introduced, "Come, this is the reincarnation of the Eastern Peak Emperor and the Lord of Mount Tai. Apart from those few powerful figures hidden in the Underworld, he is the second-in-command of the Underworld!"
"You just need to go find King Yama to pick up two souls and leave. With the imperial decree of the Eastern Peak Emperor, what other problems could there be?"
Xuan Yue finally came to her senses and respectfully bowed to Kudo Yusaku to express her gratitude: "Thank you for your help, Your Majesty!"
Kudo Yusaku waved his hand: "It was nothing, don't worry about it. When you get back, just give the token to Li Muyang."
Li Muyang blinked and pointed to himself: "What about me? Do you still want the token?"
Yusaku Kudo rolled his eyes and pouted, "Here you go! Are you satisfied now?"
Li Muyang grinned immediately: "Alright!"
Kudo Yusaku shook his head with a wry smile, then explained to Xuan Yue, "My token is, after all, a token of the gods of the underworld. You, a mere mortal, should avoid contact with it. Li Muyang is a cultivator, and his cultivation is not bad. He is not afraid of this yin energy and underworld energy, so it shouldn't be a big problem for him to take it."
"If you embark on the path of cultivation in the future, it's not impossible for you to come into contact with these things from the underworld."
Xuan Yue maintained a respectful attitude: "Thank you for your guidance, senior. I understand!"
I'm already satisfied that he's willing to help me, why make such a fuss! Xuan Yue is prone to overthinking, but she's not stupid. She can feel the weight and coldness of this token of the underworld deity in her hands, and she's already a little tired after a short while. How could she easily take it for herself?
Having received the token to travel to the underworld, Li Muyang and Xuan Yue bid farewell to Kudo Yusaku. "We won't disturb your vacation any longer. By the way, Genji asked me to inquire when next month's manuscript will be sent to the publisher..."
Before Li Muyang could finish speaking, Kudo Yusaku had already disappeared. It seems that the readers will have to keep waiting. Who told you to encounter an author who likes to delay things?
