Chapter 439: Chapter 307: Just became the son of the Emperor, and someone dares to act wildly on my head?
City God’s decree!
City Gods, in the context of the Underworld and Heavenly Court, are equivalent to high-ranking officials in the human world. They can’t just be casually appointed!
King Biancheng had no blood or acquaintances with him, so why would he send such a generous gift to himself?
Holding the ancient City God’s decree, Xu Yang fell into deep self-doubt!
Could it be…
Were all the rumors in the Xi Xia ghost realm true?
And thinking about the “omen” Grandpa mentioned when he found Xu Yang as a baby…
At that time, the surroundings were filled with soaring Yin energy, and Yin spirits and ghosts were protecting him. Xu Yang didn’t believe that he was just an ordinary abandoned baby!
Furthermore, there was the incarnation of “Emperor Beiyin of Fengdu.” Why did he take care of him unconditionally?
Even giving him a ghost market that he had operated for hundreds of years and a decree from the Emperor?
King Biancheng…
Could it be that he discovered something, so he sent Xu Yang a City God’s decree to close the distance?
“Am I the son of Emperor Beiyin of Fengdu?”
“My father… Emperor Beiyin of Fengdu?”
Xu Yang muttered softly, finding it hard to believe.
Wang Defa’s eyes suddenly brightened, and he grabbed Xu Yang’s hand, saying, “Haha, Xu Yang… I’ve been saying since you were a kid that you were no ordinary person. Do you remember how often I bought you snacks when you were young?”
“If you become rich in the future, don’t forget about me, Elder Wang!”
Xu Yang: “…”
Buying snacks for him?
Xu Yang recalled that every time Elder Wang came to play chess with Grandpa, he would buy Xu Yang ice cream, lollipops, and other small snacks. But in return, Xu Yang had to help him watch his coffin shop.
Xu Yang’s most profound memory of Elder Wang was the old man’s fondness for pinching Xu Yang’s testicles.
Back then, Xu Yang was still small and wore crotchless pants.
Every time Elder Wang came over, he would pinch Xu Yang’s testicles. This eventually led to Xu Yang crying whenever he saw Elder Wang.
While the two were talking and laughing, another round of laughter came.
“Brother Xu Yang, Brother Wang!”
The one who came was none other than Lord Cui.
He wasn’t wearing his judge’s uniform, but a simple set of clothes. As soon as he entered the private room, he greeted Xu Yang and Wang Defa enthusiastically.
“Brother Cui, why are you here?”
Xu Yang stood up and said, “Sit, sit… Waiter, bring another set of bowl and chopsticks.”
Wang Defa also quickly stood up.
Apologizing, he bowed and saluted, “Lord Cui.”
He was a judge of the Department of Rewarding Good, while Lord Cui was a judge of the Underworld’s Bureau of Laws.
Although both were judges, in terms of rank and actual power, Lord Cui was much higher than him.
“No need to be polite, sit.”
After sitting down, Lord Cui glanced at Wang Defa and laughed, “I heard about your promotion… Congratulations.”
Wang Defa replied, “It’s just good luck.”
“This can’t be called luck,” Lord Cui said. “If it weren’t for you going to the human world back then, you would have become a judge long ago… But, this trip to the human world was worth it for you.”
As he spoke, he inadvertently glanced at Xu Yang.
Wang Defa understood and chuckled, “It’s actually luck.”
Lord Cui was surprised, and then nodded, “Indeed… this is your destiny.”
“What luck? What destiny?”
Watching the pair’s cryptic conversation, Xu Yang complained, “Drink up, drink up…!”
His heart was troubled.
He had thought he was just an abandoned baby, and would never have anything to do with his birth parents in this life… Who would have thought there would suddenly show up a father out of nowhere!
Although the matter had not been confirmed, Xu Yang felt that…
Nine times out of ten, it was true!
“Brother Cui!”
After a few drinks, Xu Yang asked, “Brother Cui, as the trusted general of Emperor Beiyin of Fengdu, can you tell me what kind of person the Emperor is?”
Now, it wasn’t just Wang Defa.
Even Lord Cui suspected Xu Yang’s relationship with Emperor Beiyin of Fengdu. After all, he had heard those rumors in the human world.
There’s no smoke without fire.
If it were really just a rumor, why would the Emperor’s incarnation care so much for Xu Yang?
“The Emperor…”
As soon as the subject of Emperor Beiyin of Fengdu came up, a touch of admiration and passion appeared in Lord Cui’s eyes. He said, “The Emperor is one of the most supreme divine spirits in the Underworld Palace. He is the most perfect person in the world…”
Lord Cui was a subordinate of Emperor Beiyin of Fengdu.
He admired Emperor Beiyin the most. In his eyes, Emperor Beiyin was his idol and hero.
Of course, he considered Emperor Beiyin to be absolutely flawless.
As he lavished praise, it sounded like a shower of flowers!
With the help of Wang Defa’s supplementary comments, Emperor Beiyin of Fengdu was portrayed as a powerful and towering figure. Xu Yang couldn’t help but exclaim, “Is my father… really that great?”
At that remark…
Lord Cui and Wang Defa couldn’t help but exchange glances!
As expected…
Xu Yang admitted it!
He was the son of Emperor Beiyin of Fengdu, the Crown Prince of Fengdu City!
“No wonder after Xu Yang’s soul entered the Underworld for the first time, the Emperor personally sent a message for me to send him back!”
“No wonder he’s so special, with his name not in the Book of Life and Death. It must have been the Emperor’s doing, erasing his name from the Book, allowing him to jump out of the three realms…”
Lord Cui thought in his heart.
Meanwhile, Wang Defa couldn’t help but think, “Old Xu mentioned that when he found Xu Yang, the boy was drifting in the Yellow River, lying in a bamboo basket, surrounded by surging yin energy with ghosts and spirits surrounding him… This child had mediocre qualifications and no way to cultivate, yet one day, he came to a sudden realization, and his cultivation soared like a rocket… If he is the Emperor Beiyin of Fengdu’s son, everything makes sense!”
The two judges had different thoughts in their hearts.
At that moment.
Wang Shiren personally brought more dishes and wine.
When he saw Lord Cui, he couldn’t help but shiver and quickly knelt down to pay his respects.
“Ding!”
“The ghost is scared, +10000 merit points, +1 cooking skill.”
Lord Cui waved his hand and said, “Get up, no need for formalities… My brother is staying here, just take care of him for me.”
These words shocked Wang Shiren’s heart again!
And naturally…
Provided more merit points.
He left the private room and came outside, still feeling frightened at heart.
“Who exactly is this person from the mortal realm?”
“Lord Cui calls him his brother, and the judge from the Department of Rewarding Good also has a very good relationship with him… Could it be true? Is he really the secret son of the grand emperor?”
At this thought.
Wang Shiren suddenly covered his own mouth.
His heart trembled, and his body shook a little!
“He…”
“He said he wanted to settle the score with me earlier, this… this…”
This kind of emotion lingered in his heart, causing Wang Shiren to be somewhat absent-minded in everything he did, and sometimes, when he remembered Xu Yang’s words, he couldn’t help but shudder!
As a result…
When Xu Yang was drinking with Lord Cui and Wang Defa, from time to time, a system prompt would ring in his mind, earning him another 10,000 merit points.
They ate for more than an hour.
When the meal was over, Lord Cui said, “Xu Yang, it’s not every day you come to the Underworld Palace. How could you just stay in a hotel? I’ll arrange for a house for you later, and you can move in.”
“Cui Jue, that’s too much!”
Xu Yang hurriedly said, “I’ve only just arrived in Fengdu City, and I’m only staying for a few days. I’ll be leaving on Lunar August 1st, there’s no need to buy a house.”
“August 1st?”
“There are still six days before August 1st, so early.”
Lord Cui left in a hurry after dropping this remark.
But Wang Defa was not in a hurry at all. He pulled Xu Yang aside and said, “Xu Yang, those weapons of the underworld soldiers in Fengdu City were made by you, right? Last time I went to the Xi Xia Ghost Market, I saw the same kind of weapons used by the underworld soldiers there.”
“I made them.”
Xu Yang didn’t hide it and smiled, “I have a partnership with Lord Cui, so I helped him get some weapons.”
Wang Defa’s eyes lit up and asked, “What kind of partnership? Can you tell?”
Xu Yang smiled and shook his head.
Wang Defa knew he shouldn’t ask, so he said, “No wonder Lord Cui came to your aid against Sirius Star Lord back then… If I’m not mistaken, the Revered Daoist Lingxiao from Lu Shan Sect was also dealt with by Lord Cui, right?”
Xu Yang didn’t admit it, but instead asked, “How did Elder Wang know?”
“In Da Xia, there are powerful people capable of killing Revered Daoist Lingxiao, but to capture him alive… I’m afraid only that old man from Zongsheng Palace.”
Wang Defa said, “But the old man from Zongsheng Palace usually doesn’t take action… Of course, with Lord Cui’s methods and position, even if he makes a few moves in the mortal world, no one would say anything.”
“Xu Yang… To be honest, this time I became a judge of the Department of Rewarding Good only because of my relationship with the Qingyi. As they say, a new official takes office and lights three fires, so I must make some achievements.”
“Give me some of those weapons… We can negotiate the specifics.”
Whispering, “Just a few, enough for my master to see. When the time comes, I will surely repay your kindness.”
Since Elder Wang asked, Xu Yang couldn’t refuse.
Moreover, King Biancheng had just given him a City God’s decree recently.
However…
He had told Wang Defa that these weapons were all made by himself as “real” ones and absolutely couldn’t reveal the truth to Elder Wang. So Xu Yang pretended to be embarrassed and said, “Elder Wang, you have been in the mortal world for so long, you should know the difficulty of getting these things in Da Xia.”
Wang Defa said, “Da Xia is indeed very strict in this aspect, but with your current strength, it wouldn’t take much effort to go overseas. Just contact an arms dealer… Please, help me, will you?”
Now that the conversation had come this far, how could Xu Yang refuse?
He immediately agreed, “Alright… When I go back this time, I’ll make a few hundred guns and a few dozen cannons for you, Elder Wang.”
Wang Defa was overjoyed.
He clinked glasses with Xu Yang and said, “Thank you, Xu Yang… When you return to the mortal world, remember to send my regards to your grandpa, and remember to come and visit my Wrongful Death City when you have time.”
Once Wang Defa left.
Xu Yang walked out of the private room, intending to go out for some fresh air.
As it turned out, he bumped into a male ghost who walked out of the neighboring private room.
This male ghost, with a female ghost on each side, had a slightly weaker aura than Liu Shishi but was still at the peak of a Ghost King level. Seeing Xu Yang blocking his way, he immediately scolded, “Get out of the way… Are you blind?”
Xu Yang was stunned.
Then he couldn’t help but point to himself and laugh, “Are you talking to me?”
The ghost was extremely arrogant and was about to curse again.
However, just as he opened his mouth, a thousand-year-old Thunderstruck Peachwood Sword already lay across his neck.
Xu Yang had used the “Daoist flying sword” technique.
His Bi Shui Sword and iron hammer had also appeared in his hands.
Xu Yang held the hammer in his left hand and the sword in his right hand, disdainfully stared at the ghost, and said with a light smile, “Young man… You have the courage to talk to me like that in this Fengdu City! Interesting!”
It was kind of amusing.
I had just become the son of the emperor, and someone dared to defy me?
If I don’t show off my power, how can I, Xu Yang, continue to thrive in this Fengdu City?
