It's strange. According to what I know, Uncle Wu is the messenger of the Northern King. How could he not recognize him? Now he's asking me so seriously, and I just can't figure it out.
Could it be that this is the reason they agreed without hesitation for me to join? Did they mistakenly think I had a connection with the Northern King? But I really don't know anything about the Northern King…
"Hey, cutie," Red Demon suddenly popped up and gave me a pat.
I jumped in surprise. And that—cutie?! That's really disgusting.
"What are you thinking so deeply about?"
"Nothing," I quickly shook my head.
"Not true, you're definitely thinking about something, little—cutie." He deliberately elongated the last word. I couldn't take it anymore, especially with that bright red mouth of his, truly a classic shade of red.
At this moment, all I could do was chuckle awkwardly.
"How did you get here, little cutie?" Red Demon asked.
"My name is Xi Meng." Then I directly ignored his question.
"Oh, Xi Meng, little cutie."
"…"
"Come on, let's chat. Look at them; they're almost dying of boredom and won't say a word."
"Words." Ananda appeared beside me, tugging at my sleeve and uttering this word. His previously blank expression changed for the first time, filled with longing as he looked at me and Red Demon, as if to say, "Look, I can say words."
Oh my, where am I...
Who would have thought that this innocent-looking child is actually a killing machine? Especially when he grabs me, my whole body trembles; if he puts in a little more strength, I might just disappear.
"Get away, you idiot," Red Demon said disdainfully to Ananda.
Ananda tilted his head in confusion, genuinely not understanding.
"Hmph, I won't stoop to your level," Red Demon pouted and walked a few steps ahead. But why do I feel like he seems a bit scared of Ananda?
It was just me and Ananda left at the back, but at that moment—
Ananda smiled, and that smile was enough to melt everything. It shone brightly in my eyes; it was so cute and pure!
"Ananda, you're not stupid, are you?!" As soon as the words left my mouth, I immediately covered my mouth.
Heavens, for a moment I was captivated by Ananda's smile and forgot about the massacre he had committed not long ago. When I came to my senses, I realized that if I angered him, I would be doomed!
But how could I believe that such a good-looking child could be an idiot?!
"Sis, sis," Ananda continued to smile.
Alright, maybe I'm being overly cautious.
"Yes, Ananda," I replied with a smile.
Just like that, I don't even know what happened. Suddenly, in the eerie desolation of the 'void,' an image appeared: a young girl holding a toddler's hand, walking forward. Their backs exuded an indescribable warmth.
“Sister, Sister.”“Mm, Anan.”“Sister.”“I’m here, Anan.”“Sister.”“Sigh.”“Sister.”“…Anan, can you say anything else?”“Sister.”“…”Maybe Ananda really isn’t very smart.…“What the hell, are you looking to die?! Cripple!” A sudden shout from the Red Demon shattered the surrounding silence.What’s going on? I pulled Ananda forward to investigate.
"Anxious, there is no other way." Uncle Wu replied calmly.
"What, scared? You can leave; no one is forcing you to follow us," Fu Lao said.
"Yes, I am scared. But I still have Intelligence! What about you? Just a fool, an old man, a cripple, and a little girl think they can go there?!" Red Demon shouted in disbelief.
"Where to?" I asked, looking at Ananda.
Ananda shook his head. Fine, I should just ignore him.
"Hey, little girl, I advise you to leave with us; going there is just a dead end," Red Demon turned to me and said.
"I—" The word 'go' hadn't even left my mouth.
"He’s not wrong, miss; you should think it over," Uncle Wu said.
"That's right; you shouldn't have gotten involved in this mess with me," Fu Lao added.
"Can you tell me where we are going?" They all said this, and I could somewhat sense the seriousness of the situation.
"Where to? They are going to deal with the Grim Reaper; what, do you want to go too?" Red Demon said.
"The Grim Reaper?"
"Yes, the Lord of Hell, who surpasses the Northern King and Southern King."
"Sigh, you just arrived and don't understand the situation in Hell. Let me explain a bit. Hell is superficially divided into two parts, ruled by the Southern King and Northern King. However, the true master of Hell is the Grim Reaper; he controls everything here, including the Void and everything that appears within it. The thing is, he never shows himself; apart from the Southern King and Northern King, no one has ever seen him," Fu Lao explained.
"Are we really going to find the Grim Reaper now?"
"Yes, we need to ask him to open the Gates of Hell so we can personally hunt down the beasts in the underworld and obtain their inner cores. Otherwise, we could be waiting here indefinitely."
...Leave?
Maybe I know the way out, but I can't leave. My time is limited; White Soul, everyone, and Silver Moon are all waiting for me.
"Is the Grim Reaper someone anyone can meet? Don't you know that to see him, you have to leave your life behind? Or do you think you're not dead enough already?" Red Demon said, somewhat angrily.
At that moment, I realized it wasn't about being opponents; it was about being old friends who constantly clash while living in hell. They had struggled to get this far, and it wasn't easy.
I just can't go. How long would it take to go out and come back? I really don't have much time left.
And then there's that unconscious man; he is my clue to finding Silver Moon. I don't know why I feel this way, but something has been guiding me from within. I feel he can definitely help me.
"Alright, Red Demon, you can leave now," Uncle Wu said.
"You lunatics! It won't matter even if you all die!" Red Demon stepped forward, agitated and ready to strike.
Old Fu also moved forward to block them. In the chaos of pushing and pulling, Ananda joined in. I quickly grabbed this little guy; he didn't understand the situation and might make things worse.
As it turned out, my concerns were valid. Ananda truly thought both sides were fighting and charged at Red Demon, throwing a punch.
"Defend! Golden Garment!" I shouted, blocking Red Demon!
Oh no! Why did I let my emotions take over and dare to take Ananda's attack?
But it was too late.
In an instant, both I and the Red Demon were knocked back several meters. Especially me, who was standing in front. I almost really said goodbye for good.
I forced a smile; as long as I didn't die, it was fortunate that I was Undead.
"Ananda!" Uncle Wu shouted.
Ananda looked at me and slowly stopped, his expression complex.
Old Fu ran over and asked, "What's wrong, little girl?"
"Nothing." I got up.
"Wow, you're really impressive. You're the first person I've seen take a hit from Ananda and not get seriously hurt." Old Fu looked around.
The Red Demon also got up, looking at me with some confusion.
What should I do? They must have noticed my body—
"How could the Soul Jade of the Northern King be with you?!" At that moment, Uncle Wu rushed in front of me, holding up the jade pendant.
Soul Jade! What is that…
