Heavenly Human Realm Expert, Emperor's Jade Pendant!

Of course, this feeling of death wasn't directed at Lu Chen, but equally at everyone.

Behind this terrifying figure stood four figures respectfully.

These four figures were quite normal.

One was a young woman in a blood-red dress, incredibly alluring.

One was an elderly man with a fairy-like demeanor, white hair, and a youthful face. One was a middle-aged man in black armor, and the last was an ordinary-looking young man dressed as a farmer.

"Emperor Fengdu, Four Directional Ghost Kings. No wonder you're called the Underworld organization. Your stage names are quite interesting. Rise."

After observing them, Lu Chen nodded with satisfaction.

Looking at the five people who had stood up, Lu Chen frowned slightly.

"Is it just the five of you in the entire Underworld? Shouldn't there be the Ten Yama Kings and such?"

Lu Chen couldn't help but ask.

"Replying to sir, below us are the Ten Yama Kings, Black and White Impermanence, Ox-Head and Horse-Face, the Four Judges, and three hundred and sixty-five Yin Generals. They are currently lurking in various countries within the Eastern Cang Region. If sir requires it, I can summon them all."

Emperor Fengdu replied respectfully upon hearing this.

"So that's how it is!"

Hearing this, Lu Chen's eyes flickered. He hadn't expected this assassin organization to be so vast and have such a strict hierarchy.

The highest controller of the assassin organization was Emperor Fengdu.

Below Emperor Fengdu were the Four Directional Ghost Kings.

Below the Four Directional Ghost Kings were the Ten Yama Kings.

Below the Ten Yama Kings were the Four Judges, Ox-Head and Horse-Face, Black and White Impermanence, and so on.

And at the very bottom were the three hundred and sixty-five Yin Soldiers and Yin Generals.

However, what surprised Lu Chen the most was that the Underworld's core assassins were lurking within various forces and countries throughout the Eastern Cang Region.

This way, no matter who he wanted to kill, with just one command, the enemy would have nowhere to escape, no matter where they fled.

"What are your respective ranks?"

Lu Chen couldn't help but ask.

"Replying to sir, I am at the ninth heaven of the Heavenly Human Realm. The Four Directional Ghost Kings are at the ninth heaven of the Land Immortal Realm. The Ten Yama Kings are around the ninth heaven of the Heavenly Phenomenon Realm, and the Four Judges are around the first heaven of the Heavenly Phenomenon Realm!"

"As for Ox-Head and Horse-Face and Black and White Impermanence, they are at the ninth heaven of the Emperor Realm. And among the lowest three hundred and sixty-five Yin Soldiers and Yin Generals, there are those at the Great Grandmaster realm and above, and Emperor Realm powerhouses!"

Emperor Fengdu said, cupping his hands respectfully.

Upon hearing this, Lu Chen gasped, his face showing immense shock.

The Underworld's power was truly terrifying.

One expert at the Heavenly Human Realm, four at the Land Immortal Realm, and over a dozen at the Heavenly Phenomenon Realm.

There were countless experts at the Emperor and Imperial Realms.

Such a terrifying force could even overthrow a nation.

Most importantly, such terrifying power was all dedicated to assassination.

With such a terrifying assassin force, it could be said that in the entire Eastern Cang Region, there was no one he couldn't kill if he wanted to.

Lu Chen pondered for a moment, then looked at Emperor Fengdu and the Four Directional Ghost Kings standing respectfully before him, a smile appearing on his face.

"Such a vast assassin organization serving just me is a bit of a waste. How about this: the Underworld can normally accept assassination requests from others in the Eastern Cang Region and accumulate wealth on its own!"

Lu Chen said.

With the terrifying Underworld starting to serve the entire Eastern Cang Region and accepting contracts, it would likely immediately become the most formidable assassin force in the entire Eastern Cang Region, unstoppable.

"Yes, sir!"

Emperor Fengdu replied respectfully, cupping his hands.

"However, before that, I need you to help me investigate someone. Chen Shengping. He should be related to Spirit Consort. I need all information about him."

Lu Chen narrowed his eyes and said.

Controlling such a vast assassin organization, he might as well give a small task to sharpen their skills first.

"Yes, sir. The task will be completed within an hour. Sir, please take this."

Emperor Fengdu replied respectfully, then extended his hand and presented a triangular, black, and eerie jade pendant to Lu Chen.

"What is this?"

Lu Chen asked in surprise as he took the strange jade pendant.

"Sir, this is the Emperor's Jade Pendant. When you encounter an irresistible danger, you can channel your spiritual energy into the pendant. This Emperor's Jade Pendant will create a spatial vortex, and no matter where I am, I can instantly appear by your side to protect you. Furthermore, we can communicate through the Emperor's Jade Pendant normally."

Emperor Fengdu explained.

Hearing this, Lu Chen's eyes lit up.

A good item.

A life-saving divine artifact.

You have to understand, Emperor Fengdu is a Heavenly Human Realm expert.

That's a whole rank higher than a Land Immortal.

With such terrifying power, he could completely roam the world unchallenged.

Having a bodyguard who could appear by my side at any moment, combined with my own power at the Land Immortal Realm, means I'll likely be worry-free from now on.

Die?

I can't die. With the Reversal System, which has a bug that caused it to appear decades early, I can't even die if I wanted to.

He put the Emperor's Jade Pendant into his spatial ring.

At this moment, Emperor Fengdu and the Four Directional Ghost Kings turned into a gust of Yin wind and vanished on the spot.

Meanwhile, in the Spirit Marvel Hall.

Inside the hall were Spirit Consort, the Second Prince Lu Xuan, and the Seventh Prince Lu Ren.

However, the complexion of all three was paler and more terrified than the last.

"That little bastard Lu Chen returned to the palace safe and sound, but my maternal grandfather's sworn protector's soul lamp has been extinguished. He's dead right now!"

"Impossible, how could that be? That little bastard is only six years old, how could he escape from an Emperor Realm expert, let alone kill him in return!"

Lu Ren's face contorted, he clenched his fists and gritted his teeth as he spoke.

"Is there a possibility that it wasn't a counter-kill, but that Lu Chen the bastard had an incredibly powerful protector guarding him?"

Lu Xuan, his eyes bloodshot, spoke from the side.

"A protector? How is that possible? Why would a mongrel born to a palace maid have a protector? Why?"

Hearing this, Lu Ren completely lost it, screaming hysterically.

"Why? With extremely heaven-defying talent and the Emperor Father's favor, arranging a protector for him wouldn't be difficult,"

Lu Xuan shook his head and said.

"Are we really helpless against that little bastard?"

Lu Ren was unwilling to accept this.

Hearing this, Lu Xuan fell into thought!

"Of course, we won't give up just like this. However, given the current situation, it's not advisable to act rashly. We need to plan slowly."

At this moment, Spirit Consort, who had been lost in thought, spoke, her voice tinged with melancholy.

"Plan slowly, how do we plan?"

Lu Ren didn't understand.

Spirit Consort and Lu Xuan exchanged a glance, both understanding the meaning in each other's eyes.

"My lord, we have found all the information regarding Chen Shengping."

An hour later, Lu Chen was cultivating when a low voice came from the front.

Hearing this voice, Lu Chen opened his eyes and saw Emperor Fengdu, wearing a fierce ghost mask, appear before him.
