Chapter 467: Chapter 467 - Three Seconds for a Real Man

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation  Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

Spring was warm and flowers were blooming, and all things were revived. It was the season of mating again!

Weasels, snakes, monkeys, and cats all rushed out as if they were in heat. It was as if the old woods in the northeast had been demolished and relocated to Xuzhou.

Fortunately, Demonic Qi was rampant here. Ghost Qi was released. The miasma formed did not need to worry about being discovered by the ordinary people here.

Behind the rockery not far away, Zhou Ze and Lawyer An stood side by side. Bai Yingying stood behind him.

Zhou Ze’s hands were very itchy. He wanted to make a move. However, he saw Brother Monkey chase the old man in sunglasses around and the two northeast immortals and the Black Cat face off against the two Black Shadows. They were not at a disadvantage.

Zhou Ze felt like he had nowhere to go. It was a pity that he came out too quickly and did not bring out the Wahaha melon seeds in the room. Otherwise, he would not have been so bored.

It could be seen that the souls of the two northeast immortals, including the Black Cat, seemed to have become much more corporeal than before. The Yin-yang book had always been placed at the monkey’s side. No one knew how the monkey got it. It seemed that he was still getting along well with those demons.

To be honest, he was not afraid of losing face. The true owner of the Yin-yang book, Boss Zhou, had personally used the Yin-yang book to challenge him. It was possible that the few goblins inside might not even show their face. This time, they collectively gave face to Brother Monkey. They even worked hard.

“Where are the local Ghost Guards of Xuzhou?” Zhou Ze asked.

Lawyer An smiled. “Soon. See the water at the pavilion? There are so many paper dolls floating around. Today, this place is livelier than I imagined. It’s like a party.”

The implication was that there was no need to worry about fighting. The old man’s identity was unknown, but what he did was definitely a heinous act that the Netherworld would not allow. He set up a memorial archway to deliberately take in dead souls. In ancient times, it was equivalent to setting up his own sect and raising a flag to rebel.

In other words, whoever appeared next and stood with the old man in sunglasses could be attacked by the righteous ghosts who loved the Netherworld and Hell.

At this moment, at the entrance of this hotel, a crazy monk with a manic head slowly walked over. When he reached the flowerbed at the entrance, he stopped in his tracks.

“Amitabha, why is it so lively inside? The demons are dancing wildly.”

The monk with a manic head did not continue walking in. Instead, he took a few steps back and sat down on the bench at the entrance.

As soon as he sat down, the monk immediately jumped up and turned around to shout at the flowerbed:

“Who is it? You scared this penniless monk to death!”

A young girl’s face was revealed in the flowerbed. The girl looked to be about sixteen or seventeen years old. She was wearing a floral dress and was lying in the flowerbed. She did not find it dirty.

Her skin was a little dark and not very white. It looked very clean and healthy.

“It’s you. Why aren’t you going in?” The monk asked.

It was obvious that the monk knew her.

“The flowers and plants here tell me that there might be danger inside.” The girl’s voice was pleasant as the gentle caw of a lark.

“Hehe.” The monk sat down again, “That’s true. They are the hosts and invited us over. We are guests. How can a guest help the host catch cats and dogs? Only by cleaning the house can they treat us.”

“If they didn’t say that they could provide me with a large piece of the Resurrection Lily, I wouldn’t have come.”

Two cars drove over. Three men and a woman came down from below. The four of them ran straight into the hotel, looking very anxious.

“Hey, monk.” The tanned girl reached out and patted the monk’s head.

“Don’t pat this penniless monk’s head, or else this penniless monk will be angry with you.”

“Alright, you’re very stingy. Did you see that the local ghost guards of Xuzhou were all bribed?”

“Mm.” The scabby-headed monk nodded. The one who had just entered was the local ghost guards of Xuzhou.

“Monk, tell me since the root of the Yin Si is so rotten, when will it collapse?”

“When has the root of Yin Si ever been clean?” The mangy-headed monk asked back.

“Uh…”

“Didn’t your mother-in-law tell you about this bullshit?”

“No, she seemed to have something to tell me, but I couldn’t wait any longer. So I planted her as fertilizer.”

“Hehe.”

The mangy-headed monk’s face was full of black lines. He was a little afraid of this young girl. She looked like a simple and hard-working farmer. However, her true methods and her true face hidden under this face would probably give even Buddha a headache, right?

“Then, tell me about it. I’m just curious. This Yin master has been eaten by various parties and is riddled with holes. Not to mention the ghosts below, even the constables have their own backers and plans. No matter how you look at it, it looks like it’s going to be over.”

“In ancient times, the Yellow Emperor sent Ying Gou to guard the Netherworld Sea. After that, Ying Gou fell. Hell fell apart. In the end, Mount Tai became a monk and reorganized the Order of Hell.”

“However, ever since the last generation of Mount Tai went missing, Hell fell apart again. It was not until the ten Yama kings and Ksitigarbha Bodhisattvas officially moved in that the current order of the Netherworld was re-established.”

“The ten Yama kings were the symbol of the Netherworld. Everyone knew that the person who wielded the greatest authority in the Netherworld was the mysterious Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva. Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva had once made a grand wish. Hell would not become Buddha unless it was empty, do you understand?”

“Understand what? Speak properly and don’t play tricks. I don’t have the money to pay you.”

“It’s just that people are eager for the underworld to rot deep in their bones and then collapse. Ever since the previous Lord of Mount Tai Prefecture went missing, the higher-ups who were in charge of the underworld were hoping that the underworld would end on its own.

“It’s just that this system has its own operating principles and needs some time to collapse.”

“Oh, in that case, I really hope that it will collapse as soon as possible. When the Yin and Yang don’t separate, I can plant the spider lilies in the world of the living.”

“Amitabha. Humans are humans. Ghosts are ghosts. Humans and ghosts are one. This penniless monk has always abhorred the rules of the Yin and Yang Division! Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva’s grand wish is also this penniless monk’s grand wish.”

This scabby-headed monk was a great holy mother to the departed spirits.

Outside the hotel, a monk and a young girl were chatting happily.

Inside the hotel, with the addition of the four Xuzhou ghost messengers, the scene immediately became even more lively.

The female ghost messengers that Zhou Ze had seen earlier were now standing behind the old man in sunglasses, helping him to restrain the monkey.

The four local ghost messengers from Xuzhou rushed over without saying a word and started fighting those demons. They were probably more motivated than they were to do their jobs.

“Tsk.” Zhou Ze, who had been watching the show for a long time. His legs were numb. He asked with some dissatisfaction, “Old An.”

“What’s the matter, boss?”

“Those ghost messengers from Changzhou were taken in by the forces of Hell. The Five ghost messengers we saw in Xuzhou were also bribed by the forces behind the old man. Why is no one interested in our city?”

Hearing this, Lawyer An fell into silence. His boss’s question was too surprising. For a moment, he didn’t know how to answer it.

It was like everyone was in the same system. There were people from other departments who sent gifts and bribes. His department was like a clear water yamen, and no one paid attention to it. The department head almost put the “I’m going to embezzle” sign on the door, but no one paid any attention to it.

Zhou Ze had already invested in Lawyer An’s smuggling business. This could only be considered a small fight among his own people.

Now that he thought about it, it was true. All along, there hadn’t been any forces from Hell extending an olive branch to this place, waving a large amount of underworld money and shouting, “if you dare to mess with me, you’ll have a problem!”

“Could it be that the reputation of our ghost guards is too good?” Zhou Ze looked at Lawyer An. “So no one bribed us?”

“Maybe… right.”

“Old An, we’re too well-behaved.”

The more Zhou Ze thought about it, the more uncomfortable he felt. The more uncomfortable he felt, the itchier his hands became.

“So, we need to teach them a good lesson. We need to tell the outside world that our ghost guards are still very powerful. It can also be considered as showing our own brand.”

“The more ruthless we get, the better it will be to kill them all. The higher our price will be.” Lawyer An began to bewitch him.

Zhou Ze smiled meaningfully, “Old An, why do I feel like you’re pushing me into a pit of fire?”

“How is that possible? Even if it’s not to earn myself some money, I can at least tell the various forces and demons that they can do whatever they want in the future. Don’t do it in Tongcheng. Otherwise, they’ll have to weigh their weight.”

“In that case, boss, you can bask in the sun in peace.”

On the other side, with a total of five local Xuzhou Ghosts joining in, the animal world began to lose its footing. The decline was obvious. It seemed that it was time for the little monkey to transform.

It was the mid-autumn festival today, the moon tonight should be relatively round. It might be of some help to the monkeys, right? It seemed that the monkeys all liked the full moon.

Unfortunately, it was still broad daylight. There was still a long way to go before the sky turned dark and the moon appeared.

“Come, tackle the targets. The two shadows are yours, Old An. As for the old man in shorts and sunglasses, Yingying, you’re in charge.”

What he meant was, the remaining five local ghost guards of Xuzhou were Zhou Ze’s.

“You have such a big appetite? Be careful not to overdo it.” Lawyer An smiled and dashed out shouting, “Order in the underworld, merciless in death, break!” He directly blasted at the two Black Shadows!

“Boss, go for it. Sob, sob, sob!” Bai Yingying stomped on the ground with one leg. The strong physique of the female zombie was revealed. She was originally a 200-year-old zombie. She was constantly nourished by Zhou Ze, so she had long become unusual. She shot herself out like a bullet and directly smashed down on the old man in sunglasses.

The battle situation instantly became even more chaotic because of the sudden addition of these two people. Even the five local ghost guards were stunned. Why were there so many uninvited guests today?

At that time, Zhou Ze walked out. As the boss, he had to appear at the finale. BGM possession was the only way. It was a pity that the veteran who was best at BGM was at the other end and could not cooperate with him. He felt a little regretful.

Zhou Ze opened his palm. He watched as his five fingernails slowly grew out. A familiar feeling came over. He said softly, “F*ck…”

Sigh, after thinking for a while, he decided to take care of the emotions of the person in his body. After pausing for a moment, Zhou Ze continued, “Fanyun!”

“Weng! Weng! Weng! Weng! Weng! Weng!”

Five black chains suddenly shot out from underground. In an instant, they wrapped around the five ghost guards of Xuzhou. Zhou Ze thought in his heart, ‘They had become much thicker and darker.’

It did not delay his actions. He continued to speak lightly, “Cover the Rain!”

“Boom!”

The chains seemed to have been pulled back to the ground at an extremely fast speed. The five ghost guards who had just been locked up did not have the time to break free before they were dragged and smashed to the ground together.

The figures of the five ghost guards were laid on the ground, looking extremely miserable.

This feeling was so comfortable. Zhou Ze silently experienced the pleasure of being suppressed the moment he appeared.

Then, his head felt dizzy, and his chest felt short of breath. He knelt on the ground as if he had asthma and kept gasping for breath.

He was exhausted. Zhou Ze himself did not expect it.

How many seconds had he been acting?

At that moment a voice that Zhou Ze did not want to hear came from the depths of his heart, “Really… quickly… ah…”
