Chapter 239: Crosstalk in front of the King of Hell
The black shadow was moving extremely fast. Before Chen Yu could react, he was knocked away and fell heavily to the ground. The flashlight in his hand rolled to the side and went out.
"Chen Yu!" Lin Qingxue and Liu Ruyan exclaimed and hurried over to help Chen Yu up.
"Cough cough..." Chen Yu coughed a few times and felt a sharp pain in his chest. A mouthful of blood rushed to his throat and he swallowed it hard.
"Are you okay?" Lin Qingxue asked with concern, reaching out to wipe the blood from the corner of Chen Yu's mouth.
"It's okay, just a minor injury." Chen Yu waved his hand and struggled to stand up.
Liu Ruyan also looked at Chen Yu with a worried look on her face: "This female ghost is so powerful, let's leave quickly!"
Chen Yu shook his head: "No, the fragments of the Ice Soul Divine Pearl are right here, we can't just give up like this."
He picked up the flashlight from the ground and turned it on again, illuminating the interior of the temple.
The woman in black appeared in the center of the temple again, her long hair covering her face, making it impossible to see her expression.
"Playing tricks!" Chen Yu snorted coldly, took out a "ghost catcher" from his storage bag, and shot the woman in black.
The blue beam shot towards the woman in black, but passed right through her body without causing any harm.
"Useless?" Chen Yu was stunned. This ghost catcher can even catch thousand-year-old ghosts, so how could it be ineffective against this female ghost?
"Hehehe..." The woman in black laughed sharply, the sound was harsh and unpleasant, making people's hair stand on end.
She slowly raised her head, revealing a pale face with a faint green light flashing in her eyes.
Liu Ruyan screamed in fright and hid behind Chen Yu.
Lin Qingxue drew the long sword from her waist, stood in front of Chen Yu, and looked at the woman in black vigilantly.
The White Bone Demon also stepped forward and stood in front of Chen Yu, Lin Qingxue and Liu Ruyan, with a bone knife in her hand, ready to fight at any time.
"System, where does this female ghost come from?" Chen Yu asked in his heart.
"Ding! The target is detected as the guardian of the Netherworld Ghost Realm - Netherworld Ghost Princess, whose strength is equivalent to that of a cultivator in the Tribulation Crossing Stage."
The system's voice sounded in Chen Yu's mind.
"Tribulation period?" Chen Yu took a breath of cold air. This is too strong!
His current strength has barely reached the Nascent Soul stage, which is a world of difference compared to a cultivator in the Tribulation Crossing stage.
"It seems that fighting head-on won't work." Chen Yu thought to himself, I have to think of a way.
His eyes rolled and an idea suddenly came to his mind.
"My lady," Chen Yu said to the Ghost Princess of the Netherworld, "you are so beautiful, why do you want to pretend to be a ghost and scare people?
This could easily scare the children.”
The Ghost Queen of the Netherworld didn't say anything, but just looked at Chen Yu coldly.
"I know what you are guarding here," Chen Yu continued, "how about we make a deal?
Give me what you want to protect, and I will give you something good, guaranteed to be more valuable than what you are protecting."
The Ghost Princess of the Netherworld still didn't speak, but a hint of doubt flashed in her eyes.
Chen Yu pulled out a cell phone from his storage bag, opened the live broadcast interface, and said to the camera: "Everyone, today we came to the Netherworld Ghost Domain and met a beautiful female ghost. She seems to be difficult to get along with. I'm trying to find a way to communicate with her. Does anyone have any suggestions?"
The audience in the live broadcast room suddenly exploded:
"Host, you're courting death! How dare you provoke a master in the Tribulation Crossing Stage?"
"Host, run! Don't wait until the female ghost captures you and makes you her husband!"
"Anchor, you're playing with fire! Be careful, the female ghost will suck you dry!"
"Host, I suggest you sing a song for the ghost girl. Maybe it will move her."
"Anchor, I suggest you dance for the ghost girl. Maybe it can attract her attention."
Chen Yu looked at the comments in the live broadcast room and smiled: "Everyone's suggestions are good, but I think I should try my method first."
He put away his phone and said to Nether Ghost Princess, "Girl, I have a lot of good things here, do you want to take a look?"
The Ghost Princess of the Netherworld finally spoke, her voice icy cold: "What do you want to do?"
"Nothing, I just want to make friends with you." Chen Yu said with a smile, "Look, I have a mobile phone here, I can watch movies, listen to music, and play games; I also have a computer, I can use it to surf the Internet, chat, and shop; I also have all kinds of delicious food, such as hot pot, barbecue, fried chicken..."
As Chen Yu spoke, he took out various modern items from his storage bag and showed them to the Ghost Queen of the Netherworld.
The Ghost Princess of the Netherworld looked at these strange things with curiosity in her eyes.
"You can have all these things." Chen Yu said, "As long as you give me what you want to protect."
The Ghost Princess of the Netherworld was silent for a moment, then asked, "What is it that you want to protect?"
Chen Yu pointed at the soul detector and said, "This is what led me here. It told me that what you need to protect is in this temple."
The Ghost Queen of the Netherworld looked at the soul detector, then looked at Chen Yu, and a trace of struggle flashed in her eyes.
"Do you want to get the 'Netherworld Ghost Pearl'?" The Netherworld Ghost Princess' voice was still cold, but there was less hostility in her tone.
Chen Yu was delighted. It looked like there was hope! He nodded quickly and said, "Yes, yes, it's the Netherworld Ghost Pearl!"
Girl, let's be frank. I'm here to find some things, and you're here to protect them. Between us, it's a deal. You give me the things, and I give you the benefits. We can keep to ourselves. What do you think?"
The Ghost Princess of the Netherworld did not speak, as if she was thinking about Chen Yu's proposal.
Chen Yu struck while the iron was hot and continued, "Girl, think about it, you are guarding the Nether Ghost Pearl here day after day, year after year, how boring it is!
Look at the world outside, it's so wonderful! There's food, drinks, fun and entertainment. If you're willing, I can take you out to see it. I guarantee it will open your eyes!"
As Chen Yu spoke, he opened the photo album on his phone, took out the photos and videos he had taken in the Ice and Snow Kingdom, and showed them to the Ghost Queen of the Netherworld.
Ghost Princess of the Netherworld looked at the colorful images on the phone screen, a hint of curiosity and yearning flashing in her eyes.
She has been guarding the Netherworld Ghost Pearl here for hundreds of years and has never left the temple.
Although she is a ghost, she also longs for the outside world and longs to experience a different life.
Chen Yu caught the change in the eyes of the Nether Ghost Queen and knew that his chance had come.
He put away his phone and said seriously, "Girl, I really want to be friends with you. Are you willing to believe me?"
The Ghost Princess of the Netherworld looked at Chen Yu's sincere eyes, was silent for a moment, and then slowly nodded.
"Okay! Great!" Chen Yu slapped his thigh and said excitedly, "Since you agreed, then it's a deal!
Give me the Netherworld Ghost Pearl and I'll take you out to play!"
The Ghost Princess of the Netherworld stretched out her hand, and a black bead appeared in her palm, emitting a cold ghostly aura.
"This is the Netherworld Ghost Pearl." said the Netherworld Ghost Princess.
Chen Yu took the Netherworld Ghost Pearl. It was cold to the touch, and a powerful ghost energy surged into his body, making him shiver uncontrollably.
"Good stuff! Really good stuff!" Chen Yu exclaimed.
He put the Nether Ghost Pearl into his storage bag, then said to the Nether Ghost Princess, "Let's go out and play!"
The Ghost Princess of the Netherworld followed Chen Yu out of the temple, looking at the strange and novel world in front of her, her eyes full of curiosity and excitement.
"Wow! Is this the world outside? It's so beautiful!" The Ghost Princess of the Netherworld couldn't help but exclaimed in amazement as she looked at the snow flying all over the sky.
"Beautiful, right? This is just the tip of the iceberg. There are many more beautiful places!"
Chen Yu smiled and said, "Come on, I'll take you to a nice place!"
He rode on the Fire Kirin Xiaohuo, then extended his hand to the Nether Ghost Princess: "Come on up!"
The Ghost Queen of the Netherworld hesitated for a moment, but still extended her hand to Chen Yu.
Chen Yu pulled Nether Ghost Princess onto the Fire Kirin's back, then said to Lin Qingxue, Liu Ruyan, and the White Bone Demon, "Let's go!"
The Fire Kirin soared into the sky, carrying everyone away into the distance.
"Chen Yu, where are you taking us?" Liu Ruyan asked.
"Go to a place you would never imagine!" Chen Yu said mysteriously.
The Fire Kirin flew for about an hour and arrived at a gray space.
There are gusts of cold wind and the howling of ghosts and wolves here. It is even more eerie and terrifying than the underworld.
"What is this place?" Lin Qingxue asked.
"Next to the Netherworld Ghost Realm - the Palace of Yama!" Chen Yu said with a smile.
"Yellow King's Palace?!" Liu Ruyan turned pale with fear. "What are you doing here?"
"Of course I'm here to chat with the King of Hell!" Chen Yu said as a matter of course.
"Chat?" Liu Ruyan thought she had misheard, "Are you crazy?
Can you see the King of Hell just by saying so? "
"Of course, it's not possible to meet him casually, but I have a way." Chen Yu said confidently.
The Fire Qilin landed in front of the Yama Palace, and Chen Yu and others jumped off the Fire Qilin's back.
The gate of the King of Hell's Palace was tightly closed, and two ferocious-looking ghost officials stood on both sides, holding steel forks in their hands, staring at Chen Yu and the others with murderous eyes.
"Who are you? How dare you trespass into the King of Hell's Palace!" one of the ghosts shouted loudly.
Chen Yu stepped forward and said with a smile, "Two brothers, we are here to chat with the King of Hell."
"Chat?" The two ghost officials looked at each other and couldn't help laughing.
"Boy, you're probably still asleep, aren't you? Who is the King of Hell? Can you just see him whenever you want?"
One of the ghost officials mocked.
"That's right, why don't you take a piss and look at yourself? Are you worthy enough to see the King of Hell?"
Another ghost also laughed.
Chen Yu was not angry either. He continued to smile and said, "Two big brothers, I really am here to chat with Lord Yama. If you don't believe me, go in and tell him that Master Chen Yu wants to see you."
"Chen Yu?" The two ghost officials' faces suddenly changed when they heard the name.
"Are you the Chen Yu who caused such a stir in the human world?"
One of the ghost messengers asked.
"It's me." Chen Yu bowed.
"I've heard so much about you!" The two ghost messengers quickly put on a smile, bowed and said, "So it's Master Chen who has come to visit. We are so sorry for the inconvenience!
Please wait a moment, we will go in and inform the King of Hell!"
After saying that, the two ghost officials turned around and ran into the Hall of Yama.
"Hmph, you're just looking down on others!" Liu Ruyan looked at the backs of the two ghost officials and snorted disdainfully.
"Okay, why bother with the two gatekeepers?" Chen Yu said with a smile, "Let's just wait here. The King of Hell should come out to see us soon."
