Chapter 35
Jiang Kui believed that they were in the River of Forgetfulness:
It hurts so much
It's so cold
My soul is about to be scattered.
The actual state of Ye Zhenzhen and the others in the River of Forgetfulness:
I'm so full!
I'm too full.
I ate Medicinal Pills that I was stuffed, and I actually leveled up!
Chapter 35
================
When Ye Qinghui held the Space-Time Conversion Box he had picked up from the River of River of Forgetfulness, opened the time-space knob, and silently recited the "Phoenix Valley" he wanted to go to, the group was enveloped by a golden beam of light.
Immediately afterwards, the surrounding space began to distort, as if they had traveled into a spacetime vortex, surrounded by colorful, flowing light and shadow that they could not touch.
Ye Zhenzhen was being held in Ye Qingchuan's arms. She felt as if her body was about to be swept away by a powerful vortex, but the two arms that were firmly wrapped around her pulled her back.
She felt as if she was being torn apart. Ye Qingchuan, what are you doing?
After the Long Nose Ghost Guard saw a golden beam of light appear before him, Ye Zhenzhen and the others inexplicably vanished before his eyes. But when the golden light dissipated, she reappeared in front of him.
What happened?
He couldn't help but rub his eyes; Ye Zhenzhen had indeed returned. However, the original four people had been reduced to just her and Ye Qingchuan.
What about the other two?
Never mind, let's hurry up and catch this Little Bean so we can go back and report to the boss!
"Grab that little girl! She's the one the boss is looking for. Don't let her get away!" Long Nose shouted excitedly. The Ghost Guard immediately mobilized and surrounded them.
Ye Qingchuan curled his lips into a sinister smile. Everything was exactly as he expected. The person the Ghost Guard were looking for was indeed not his senior sister, but his Junior Sister.
He had no intention of running away with Ye Zhenzhen. Instead, he narrowed his eyes with a wicked grin and whispered in her ear, "Since they're looking for you, then go ahead. It's all your fault for knowing too much. If you're gone, your senior brother's secret will never be known to anyone else."
Secret?
So what if she knows he's a half-demon and will eventually fall into demonic ways and become Demon Venerable? But his birth wasn't his fault, and she wouldn't tell anyone about things that haven't happened yet...
Ye Zhenzhen clenched her little fists angrily. Damn it! This big bad wolf has been pretending to be a sheep for so long, people have started to mistake him for a real sheep. He must have been waiting for this opportunity for a long time.
Ye Qingchuan let go of her hand, watching helplessly as she was taken away by the Long Nose. Faced with countless Ghost Guards, she simply gave up resisting, stubbornly refusing to even turn her head. In her mind, she silently marked Ye Qingchuan with an X in her little notebook. How could she have ever thought he was handsome before? He was clearly a sickly, delicate, and utterly wicked villain whose heart could never be warmed.
His senior sister was good to him, and he protected her as if she were his life. When she was good to him, he didn't take it seriously at all, and even tricked her into being sent to the hands of the Ghost Guard to die.
She wanted to see what these brats would do to her.
Just like when Ye Qingyao was brought here before, Ye Zhenzhen was carried into the gloomy and majestic King Yama's Hall, where she saw the fierce and menacing stone statues of ghosts and gods in the four corners and heard eerie and chilling music.
But she wasn't afraid at all, and leaned against the chaise lounge with a smile throughout.
Even the Ghost Guard found it strange; this Little Bean was quite brave. He wasn't scared to tears when he saw these ghost and god statues, whereas many cultivators would have their legs go weak, scream, and wet themselves in fear.
However, a child's expression can change in an instant.
One second she was smiling sweetly, the next she burst into tears, her cries echoing throughout the entire hall, the sound reverberating and shaking the heavens and earth, causing the Ghost Guard to become disoriented, dizzy, and their expressions to contort, all of them covering their ears.
A shadow fell over the hearts of all the Ghost Guard. What could be more terrifying than the child's cries? If the crying continued, they feared their souls would be scattered to the winds.
"Drink..." The Little Glutinous Rice Ball suddenly stopped crying and uttered a single word.
"What would you like to drink?" Long Nose quickly stepped forward. "My little darling, what would you like to drink? I'll get it right away."
"Milk... milk..." The Little Glutinous Rice Ball pointed to its flat little belly, its tummy was hungry, it wanted to drink milk.
This stumped Long Nose. He scratched his head, thinking, "In Netherworld underworld, there is only death, but no birth. Where would we get baby milk to drink? There isn't any."
"Snort!"
[No milk? Should I leave?] The Little Glutinous Rice Ball kicked off the chaise lounge and slid off, trying to slip away on its short legs, but was quickly stopped by the Long Nose. "Little darling, don't run around. I'll go find you some milk right now."
Long Nose went to find milk, and the remaining little devils breathed a sigh of relief, thinking that the Little Bean should be able to settle down for a while now.
But not long after, she started wailing again, making the Ghost Guard grimace, their heads throbbing, rolling on the ground, wishing they could send this ancestor away as soon as possible.
"Little ancestor, what's wrong with you again?" A short, seemingly clever Ghost Guard asked, enduring the pain as he stepped forward.
"Play..."
"This is easy." The short man decisively took out the popular Storybook from the Netherworld that he had given Ye Qingyao before, and worried that she wouldn't be satisfied, he searched around and gathered a bunch more for her.
Ye Zhenzhen flipped through the Storybook from top to bottom and laughed.
Unexpectedly, even in the Netherworld, there is a plethora of popular homosexual literature.
Substitute
Literature,
Domineering CEO
Literature, and mad criticism of literature.
Take the topmost book, for example. It's called "[Forbidden Love: The Overbearing King of Hell Imprisons Me After His Rejection]," and it tells the story of the King of Hell falling in love with a male Ghost Guard under his command. When his advances are rejected, he imprisons the ghost and forces himself on him. It's a typical combination of homosexuality and domineering CEO literature, filled with classic quotes that are often discussed and enjoyed by ghosts, such as:
"You little devil, you're playing with fire."
"I've never experienced rejection before, you little devil, you've successfully caught my attention."
