Chapter 566: Chapter 565: Your Uncle Zhong just loves to come and play.
Mianmian finished sharing her thoughts with Cui Yu and, recalling the issue of the pass that Cui Yu had mentioned, she asked curiously, "The letter Mianmian sent to Uncle Cui, is it a pass?"
Cui Yu nodded and chose his words carefully, "In fact, after receiving your letter, we weren’t supposed to all come out. But suddenly, we heard the divine emperor’s voice transmission."
"The divine emperor?" Mianmian thought of a figure, "Is it Emperor Feng Du?"
She had heard from her mother that the Underworld wasn’t actually King Yama’s nor was it Buddha of Hell’s. The god who founded the Underworld was called Emperor Feng Du, which is why the Ghost City is also named Fengdu. The Ten Halls of Yama are merely workers employed by Emperor Feng Du to manage the Underworld on his behalf.
Cui Yu nodded, his face showing a trace of joy.
Emperor Feng Du had been in a deep slumber for many years and now had woken up just like the Black Tortoise had. During his transmission, he even praised them, the workers, saying that they had done a good job reforming the Underworld, and that it was right to keep up with the times and embrace such new vibes.
The emperor also said that the ghost gods of the Underworld were not supposed to appear frequently in the mortal realm, as that would affect the order and paths of the mortal world. However, if they had Su Mianmian’s letter as a token, it would not be considered a violation.
Without the emperor’s decree, they wouldn’t dare to come up so directly, nor in such an organized manner.
"Then, if Mianmian misses the uncles in the future, can she always invite you guys to come up and play?" Mianmian asked shyly.
Zhong Kui hastened to agree, "Of course, of course, invite us often, your Uncle Zhong loves to come up and play."
Otherwise, why would he have always applied to be sent to the human realm before? It wasn’t because he found the human realm to be much more fun than the Underworld. The gloomy Underworld, where a decade passed just like a day – how could it compare to the vibrant mortal world?
Even with the ongoing reforms, it’s still impossible to make the Underworld the same as the mortal realm.
After all, the only plant that could grow in the Underworld was the manjusaka; thinking about expanding greenery was out of the question.
Cui Yu glanced at Zhong Kui, "The uncles have important duties and can’t frequently visit the mortal realm. If Mianmian misses us, it’s better for her to come down and visit more often."
Hearing Cui Yu’s refusal, Zhong Kui touched his nose, feeling somewhat downcast.
Sigh, they were all judges, yet Cui Yu stood a head taller than the rest. But indeed, Cui Yu was busy, and there was much to do in the Underworld; taking over Cui Yu’s duties to manage the Book of Life and Death and working all day with the pen – even if he had the ability, he wouldn’t want to do it.
Wei Zheng, seeing Zhong Kui’s dejected look, whispered to Lu Zhidao, "Ever since the Underworld changed, our Judge Zhong’s heart has flown away."
Lu Zhidao laughed, "It’s normal; the nature of a military officer is never to be content with the status quo."
In the harmonious chatting atmosphere, half an hour quickly passed.
The judge pronounced the verdict in court, "Humans have their laws, and demons have their rules. Now I declare that Hu Yaoyao has harmed countless people and shall be executed on the spot. Hu Yaoyao’s split soul that bears the sin and contributes to merit shall be dealt with leniently; since it has lost its physical body, it shall be under the management of the Underworld, to be sent to the eighteenth layer of Hell for punishment. Hu Yingying, as an accomplice, relied on Hu Yaoyao’s demon magic to gain wealth and control others, sheltering the criminal, causing multiple deaths, is deprived of political rights for life, and sentenced to life imprisonment! If the jury, the lawyers on both sides, and the plaintiff have no objections, the sentence will be carried out immediately!"
Hu Yaoyao watched the judge speak with such certainty, her heart filled with panic: Could they really break the contract? Impossible, this magic was passed down from the Demon Emperor, how could there be a way to undo it?
Just now, the words Cui Yu reminded Mianmian of, hadn’t reached her ears.
Hence, Hu Yaoyao didn’t know that the one who would carry out her execution would be Mianmian.
Hu Yingying, on the other hand, breathed a sigh of relief.
She had been thinking that as an accomplice, she would receive a lighter sentence than Hu Yaoyao. Now that she was sentenced to life imprisonment, that was good enough.
She had heard that life in prison was quite orderly besides the need for reformation; better to live poorly than to die. If it was life imprisonment, then so be it.
"I have no objections."
"Neither do I."
"Thank you, Your Honor, thank you all... all the Fairies, for helping me avenge my son and my husband..."
After all three parties stated they had no objections, the Judge nodded, "Then now, please, Su Mianmian, separate the two souls and carry out the execution immediately."
The jury members, who were regular citizens, exchanged glances upon hearing this task was to be performed by Little Auntie. With all these powerful figures from the Underworld present, why was Little Auntie tasked with separating the souls? Did it mean that none of these powerful beings knew the trick?
The audience in the Live Broadcast Room, not having seen the events unfold as clearly, relied on a summary provided by a jury member present at the trial and the illustrations drawn by a soul artist of Hu Yingying and Hu Yaoyao’s current state, which were explained to them. After seeing these summaries, they boldly began to speculate!
[They didn’t have King Yama do it, nor the Judges, nor Impermanence, instead they have our Little Auntie do it... Hmm, I think I get it.]
[Little Auntie is awesome, even though I don’t know if Little Auntie is a Fairy in disguise or something... but Little Auntie is just awesome!]
[A reminder to those in the front row, if she is a Fairy in disguise, I think Little Auntie might be even more formidable. (I mean no disrespect to the little monkey on Little Auntie’s shoulder, nor do I imply any disappointment with the reincarnation of the Great Sage...)]
When Hu Yaoyao heard the Judge say to let Su Mianmian carry out the separation of the souls, she couldn’t help but laugh.
"You’re all too trusting in this little brat, aren’t you? If she had a way to break the contract between me and Hu Yingying, she would’ve done it already, why wait until now?"
She flirtatiously flicked her long red tail and cast a sultry glance at the ten Kings of Hell standing on the platform.
"I think this kid might possess a charm technique even stronger than mine, and has bewitched all of you, right? The ten Kings of Hell, the four great Judges, the ten great Messengers of Yama, it seems they’re nothing special after all!"
No sooner had Hu Yaoyao finished her mocking words than Impermanence exerted their force simultaneously.
The two souls were intertwined, but with the Soul-hooking Rope hooked in the right place, it was not impossible to forcefully separate them for a while.
The immense pulling force and the real pain made it impossible for Hu Yaoyao to speak anymore.
Hu Yingying, who had never suffered before, was in such pain that she screamed and shouted, losing all the poise of a former award-winning actress.
Seeing the two of them suffer, a group of onlookers seated in a special area began to weep.
Just as Mianmian had thought, Ma Lanhua was actually one of the plaintiffs. They were also defendants, their Family members had been deceived and killed by Hu Yingying. Initially, they didn’t know the truth, it was only after Daoist Master Qing Xu found them and investigated, that they gradually came to understand!
It wasn’t just fraud; it was a Demon!
At first, they thought that even if a Demon had committed a crime, and even if the head of a Daoist Temple came to help, the Demon might still die silently, and the grievances of these victims would not be pacified.
But now, it was different—executed on the spot!
Thinking of their deceased loved ones and watching Hu Yingying and Hu Yaoyao suffer, they couldn’t express how relieved they felt!
Ma Lanhua wiped away her tears, "Little Auntie, please, go ahead. I, I’m so eager to avenge my husband and son!"
By now, Mianmian could see the chain between the two souls.
It was a different color from the previous chains, a dark reddish color emitting a cold and eerie Qi.
Flying Sword transformed into an axe, and Mianmian furrowed her little brow, taking a tentative swing at the chain.
If the chains were like the ones on Phoenix Fairy, she would be confident, but now, she had no confidence at all.
Could she really break this contract chain as well? ƒrēenovelkiss.com
