Looking at the trembling Soul Ferrying Envoy kneeling on the ground, Lu Wu thought for a moment, then once again asked in a deep voice:
"Die? You think you can get away so easily after betraying me?"
Hearing this, the Soul Ferrying Envoy's body trembled, the soul fire in its skull fluctuated violently, and its head lowered even further:
"I beg my King to forgive me, Du Yan is willing to atone for his betrayal."
Bei Li, who was also observing this scene, was dumbfounded. She didn't expect Lu Wu to play this trick, and that this Soul Ferrying Envoy was so easily deceived, just surrendering like that.
Originally, Lu Wu wanted the Soul Ferrying Envoy to commit suicide directly, but thinking that he served under Cha Na, the Ghost General of the Liuli District, Lu Wu had another plan in mind.
"Atonement? How do you want to atone?" Lu Wu asked again in a deep voice.
As he spoke, the Yin energy in the sky continuously gathered and echoed, setting off the momentum of the figure Lu Wu was condensing.
"This subordinate is willing to help my King reclaim the lost territory and restore my King's glory!"
Hearing this, Lu Wu was amused. He didn't expect that he hadn't even opened his mouth yet, and this Soul Ferrying Envoy was so self-aware.
Lu Wu pretended to think in silence for a while, then slowly opened his mouth:
"What do you want to do?"
As soon as Lu Wu's words came out, the Soul Ferrying Envoy suddenly raised its head to look at Lu Wu: "You are not the King of Beiqi, who exactly are you?"
"What makes you say that?"
Lu Wu was depressed at this moment, not knowing where he went wrong, that he was seen through.
"If you were the King of Beiqi, even if I had great value, you would never let me go. I have followed him for thousands of years, and I am very familiar with him. Moreover, I saw the death of the King of Beiqi with my own eyes, and his Soul Power dissipated on the spot, how could it be fake? Who exactly are you?"
The Soul Ferrying Envoy's answer gave Lu Wu a headache. As expected, he was still too inexperienced.
"Who exactly are you, how did you repair the Netherworld, and why did you come? I think Third Ghost's death is also related to you, as well as those suddenly appearing creatures outside!"
The Soul Ferrying Envoy stood up, its hoarse voice echoing in the Netherworld.
"That's right, that Ghost Overseer Commander was killed by my people, and the next one is Cha Na!"
Since he had been seen through, Lu Wu didn't pretend and admitted it frankly.
Having his doubts answered, the soul fire in the Soul Ferrying Envoy's skull suddenly surged. It slowly stretched out its hands, and two balls of black flame rose from its palms:
"You are really bold, outsider, Beiqi is not a place for you to run wild!"
Just as the battle was about to break out, Lu Wu spoke again: "Heh, having lost the King of Beiqi, do you think Beiqi is still a complete Beiqi?"
"It's not up to you, an outsider, to interfere!" The Soul Ferrying Envoy waved its hand, and two balls of black flame suddenly shot over.
"Boom!"
The figure Lu Wu had condensed with Yin energy was instantly shattered, turning into a cloud of black mist.
But Lu Wu once again manipulated the Yin energy, re-condensing his figure, this time appearing directly in front of the Soul Ferrying Envoy.
"Die!"
Fierce flames suddenly rose, surrounding Lu Wu, constantly scorching him.
The black mist dissipated, and Lu Wu once again manipulated the divine artifact, condensing his form in another place.
"You can't kill me, Du Yan!"
Not believing it, Du Yan once again manipulated the black flames, constantly following Lu Wu's figure, shattering him again and again. After dozens of times, Du Yan, realizing that he was truly helpless against him, stopped.
Re-condensing his form, Lu Wu wanted to say something, when Bei Li, who was watching from the side, spoke: "Wu, give me control of the divine artifact, I'll speak!"
Lu Wu was stunned for a moment, but nodded and gave the authority to Bei Li.
Under Bei Li's manipulation, the figure gradually solidified, transforming into a young figure.
This person looked five parts similar to Lu Wu, wearing a purple Candle Dragon robe, with purple light flowing in his ink-jade-like pupils. That faint pressure seemed to be innate.
An aura of unruliness, domineering, and looking down upon the world swept over him. This familiar feeling almost made the Soul Ferrying Envoy kneel again, but thinking that the person in front of him was not the King of Beiqi at all, it immediately straightened its back.
"Stop pretending, you are not him! You can't scare me!"
"Du Yan, I am indeed not the King of Beiqi, but I have his bloodline within me, and this land of Beiqi should be inherited by me!"
The Soul Ferrying Envoy was about to continue his mockery when he saw the figure of the King of Beiqi wave his hand, and a drop of blood floated over.
Lu Wu felt a headache coming on regarding the origin of this drop of blood.
Just now, Bei Li had suddenly snuggled up to him, grabbed his hand, and bit him hard, which hurt him badly.
The Soul Ferrying Envoy waved his hand and caught the drop of blood, looked at the figure of the King of Beiqi with suspicion, and then chose to swallow it.
After standing in confrontation for a moment, the Soul Ferrying Envoy suddenly raised his head and said in horror:
"Are you really a descendant of the King of Beiqi?"
"I think you already have the answer in your heart, why ask more?"
The Soul Ferrying Envoy's heart was extremely complicated at this moment. He had just tested the drop of blood and found that it really contained the bloodline of the King of Beiqi. Although it was very thin, it could indeed prove the identity of the person in front of him.
"Why have I never seen you for thousands of years, and why have you returned now!" The Soul Ferrying Envoy asked in a deep voice.
Hearing this, Lu Wu took over the control from Bei Li and said:
"This Beiqi is the territory of my Lu Family lineage. Even if the Ancestor is dead, it must still be surnamed Lu!"
"Hahaha, little brat, I think you're crazy. Do you think you're qualified to fight against the Ghost King and the Ghost Generals?" The Soul Ferrying Envoy's hoarse laughter was particularly grating.
"Whether I'm qualified or not is not up to you. Now I'll give you a chance, submit to me!"
"Why should I?" The Soul Ferrying Envoy grinned, revealing an ugly crack on his face as he spoke.
"You've seen those creatures who call themselves players, haven't you? And you've killed them, haven't you?" Lu Wu also smiled.
"I've seen them! I've killed them!" The Soul Ferrying Envoy said nonchalantly.
As soon as these words left his mouth, the Soul Fire in the Soul Ferrying Envoy's skull suddenly jumped violently:
"Impossible, are you saying that the reason why the souls of these creatures disappear and their Soul Power doesn't dissipate is because of you!"
"You have mastered the Underworld Reincarnation Law!!!"
The Soul Ferrying Envoy was frightened by his own guess. He knew that the Underworld Reincarnation Law was a supreme power that even the King of Beiqi had never mastered. If the man in front of him really mastered it...
Fear surged in the Soul Ferrying Envoy's heart once again.
"Now I'll give you one last chance, submit to me, or wait to be destroyed along with Cha Na. The choice is yours." Lu Wu's tone also became tough.
"How can I believe you? Your idea of taking back the land of Beiqi is too crazy. I'm afraid of eternal damnation."
This time, the Soul Ferrying Envoy did not refuse, but stared straight at Lu Wu and asked.
"Do you think I look like a madman?" Lu Wu smiled.
"No." After a long silence, the Soul Ferrying Envoy spoke.
Then his body slowly sank and knelt on the ground: "Greetings, my King!"
