Chapter 1577: Just a Few Words
Actually, Xiao Yanbao left because she heard Da Huang's voice.
Given the Ghost Emperor's current state, he wouldn't dare do anything to her or her master, so Xiao Yanbao left decisively.
Even the King of Hell was a little confused.
This... leaving now?
Yama, the King of Hell, knows why the Ghost Emperor has become like this.
But he wouldn't tell the Ghost Emperor.
Even the Black and White Impermanence felt that Xiao Yanbao had left in a bit of a hurry.
As the saying goes, "Strike while the iron is hot."
Even if Yan Bao doesn't kill the Ghost Emperor, he should take this opportunity to subdue him completely, so that the Ghost Emperor won't cause trouble again in the future.
If they just leave like that, the Ghost Emperor certainly won't let it go so easily.
I really don't know what Yanbao was thinking.
The Ghost Emperor called for a long time but Xiao Yanbao didn't come back, and he was extremely annoyed.
"What are you all standing there for? Go and bring that little baby back to me!"
"Ghost Emperor, you can't even beat that little child, do you think we can? If we can't beat her, we can't capture her. Otherwise, why do you think we're afraid of a little child from the human world? It's because we can't beat her that she can freely enter and leave the underworld."
The Ghost Emperor's brows furrowed into a knot.
He didn't believe the King of Hell's words.
But he never actually beat that little kid.
"King Yama, what is the origin of that little child? And what was that red light he just used? Don't tell me you don't know."
The Ghost Emperor directly cut off what Yama was about to say.
But even after blocking the way, Yama still had to say, "I can't find out Yan Bao's origins, but I do know the red light he used; it's called Holy Spirit Light."
When the Ghost Emperor heard Yama's words, something seemed to flash through his mind, but he couldn't quite grasp it.
"How could you possibly not be able to find out the origins of that little baby? Are you trying to fool me?"
King Yama raised his hand as if to swear, "Ghost Emperor, I really can't find out Yan Bao's origins. If you don't believe me, you can check the Book of Life and Death."
He wasn't lying; Xiao Yanbao's past and present lives really can't be found in the Book of Life and Death.
"Bring me the Book of Life and Death so I can take a look."
If the origin of that little child cannot be found in the Book of Life and Death, then that little child is definitely not simple.
The King of Hell handed the Book of Life and Death to him, and thoughtfully turned to the page with Little Yanbao's name.
The Black and White Impermanence also stuck their heads out.
They had only just learned that Xiao Yanbao's origins couldn't be found in the Book of Life and Death.
They suspected that Yama was deceiving the Ghost Emperor.
So they saw that on Xiao Yanbao's page there were only a few words: Before I was born, who was I? When I was born, who was I?
The Black and White Impermanence exchanged a glance. What did that mean?
They also suspected that Yama had deliberately written it there to conceal Yan Bao's true identity.
The Ghost Emperor slammed the Book of Life and Death shut and threw it to Yama.
"King Yama, do you think that just because you show me these words, I'll actually believe you?"
Yama put away the Book of Life and Death. "I've told you everything I know. You've seen the Book of Life and Death. If you don't believe me, there's nothing I can do."
"Black and White Impermanence, you two escort the Ghost Emperor back."
The Ghost Emperor wanted to jump up and beat up the King of Hell, but his body was as limp as a noodle, and he couldn't even get up, let alone beat up the King of Hell.
He could only let the Black and White Impermanence carry him away.
He finally understood that Yama, the King of Hell, and the Black and White Impermanence had all been bribed by the little child in the human world, and he couldn't get anything out of them.
He went back and had his trusted aides investigate.
He refused to believe that he couldn't find out the origins of just a little human child.
Even if it's a celestial being descending to undergo tribulation, there are still traces to follow.
The Ghost Emperor, seething with anger, was sent back by the Black and White Impermanence.
After the King of Hell saw that the Ghost Emperor had left, he hurried off to find Little Yanbao.
He needed to know Yanbao's next move. Yanbao had just left suddenly; had something happened?
Xiao Yanbao returned to the city lord's mansion in one breath.
Because Xiao Yanbao had instructed that no one should disturb her, no one noticed that she had left the city lord's mansion.
Little Yanbao lay down on the bed before asking, "Big Yellow, please explain in more detail what you said in the Underworld. Why was I invincible there?"
[In the past, I wouldn't have dared to say such things to my master, but now that your holy light has been upgraded, no ghost can withstand it. The Ghost Emperor is the best example of that.]
So that means I can now do whatever I want in the underworld?
【Master, you used to roam freely in the Underworld, and no one dared to stop you. From now on, you can not only roam freely in the Underworld, but you can roam freely throughout the entire Netherworld. Even the Ghost Emperor has already been defeated by you.】
Little Yanbao crossed her left leg over her right leg, her little feet sticking out.
What's the difference between the underworld and the netherworld?
After thinking for a moment, Dahuang realized that in its master's mind, the underworld was the netherworld, and the netherworld was the underworld. Otherwise, its master wouldn't have thought that Yama was the highest-ranking official in the underworld.
It should try its best to explain things to its owner in a simple and easy-to-understand way.
The underworld is like a state-level city, while the netherworld is like a kingdom of mist, which contains several cities.
Xiao Yanbao understood: Yama was just a city lord, while the Ghost Emperor was the true boss of the underworld.
I beat up the boss of the underworld today, so even Yama, the King of Hell, will be implicated.
No, I brought this trouble upon myself; I can't drag the King of Hell into it.
Why not dethrone the Ghost Emperor and let Yama take his place?
Xiao Yanbao suddenly sat up in bed, and the more she thought about it, the more feasible it seemed.
Just as Xiao Yanbao was about to go and discuss it with Yama, a dark face appeared before her.
Little Yanbao instinctively reached out her little hand to pat it, but realizing that the face belonged to the King of Hell, she immediately withdrew her hand.
Yama seemed to sense that Xiao Yanbao was about to hit him, and his dark face dodged away.
Unexpectedly, the movement of Yama dodging was the same as the movement of Xiao Yanbao pulling back, and Xiao Yanbao's little hand still slapped Yama's face.
Xiao Yanbao looked completely innocent. "It's really not my fault. Your face came after me on its own."
King Yama: If a ghost is unlucky, even drinking cold water will cause him to choke.
"King Yama, did the Ghost Emperor send you to arrest me?"
King Yama shook his head. "No, I've already had the Black and White Impermanence send the Ghost Emperor back. I came to ask Yan Bao why you suddenly left? Did something happen?"
But he knew the answer to the following sentence without even asking.
Judging from Xiao Yanbao's appearance, nothing bad has happened.
If something really happened, Xiao Yanbao wouldn't be lying in bed.
"I've already defeated the Ghost Emperor, what am I still doing there?"
King Yama: I just don't feel like that's how it is.
