Chapter 144 It’s Not Easy to Be a Ghost Messenger in the Underworld (5)

"Mo Mo, are you awake? You are finally awake. You are my only daughter. If you... have some accident, how can I live?" The man rushed over, hugged Lingyu excitedly, and said with a sob.

Ling Yu was stunned and a little stiff.

"Okay, master, the young lady has just woken up, please don't scare her." The maid just now also said excitedly.

Ling Yu was about to speak when the ethereal voice in his mind sounded again, talking incessantly as if brainwashing him.

Ling Yu just felt dizzy and cried out in surprise.

"Ouch, look at my memory, did Dad hurt you?" The man let go and asked worriedly.

Lingyu came to his senses, raised his eyes to look at the person in front of him, his eyes trembling slightly.

"It's okay, Dad. My daughter is fine and won't do anything stupid again." Ling Yu softened her voice and spoke gently.

"That's good. Chen Ning visited you many times during the days you were in a coma. If it's convenient for you, go and thank him another day." The man sighed and continued, "He lost his father not long ago. This child is really pitiful."

Ling Yu nodded: "I know, Dad, I'm a little tired and want to take a rest."

"Okay, Dad won't disturb you. There are a lot of court affairs these days, and Dad will take care of them. When you get better, let Fuzi accompany you for a walk." The man said, and left the room with the maid.

After the people left, Lingyu lay on the bed, thinking about the ghostly voice in his mind just now, and finally faced the reality.

She didn't just lean over...she also traveled through time!

This is a country called Xuan State. The current emperor is Mo Xuan, a puppet emperor.

The person who actually holds real power is the prime minister, Chen Feng.

However, Chen Feng was a very capable man, and with the assistance of Mo Xuan, he managed the country very well.

Over time, everyone called him a wise prime minister and the people were particularly supportive of him.

But not long ago, Chen Feng died at home for unknown reasons.

There were no signs of injury on his body, and his eyes were empty, as if he had lost his soul.

Mo Xuan was naturally the happiest, but due to the support of the people, the prime minister's body was properly preserved.

Everyone in the world thought that the prime minister was an honest and upright official, but only Mo Xuan knew that he was a corrupt official and... had been planning a rebellion.

And this body of hers is the daughter of the current Minister Lin - Lin Momo.

Some time ago, because the King of Nanning rejected her, she jumped into the river and committed suicide.

Thinking of this, Lingyu's eyes showed a hint of envy.

Minister Lin's concerns are all genuine...they come from the bottom of his heart.

But...it was her first time experiencing this.

But was her coming to this world a destiny... or a coincidence? How could she seek revenge in this world...

"Lingyu."

Just as I was lost in thought, the voice in my mind sounded again.

"Who are you? Why am I here?!" It would be a lie to say that she wasn't angry. She had clearly wanted to let go of her hatred and enter reincarnation, but suddenly she came here and had to start a new life with unbearable memories.

"Don't worry, I know you want to go back. Once you complete the mission, I will naturally send you back."

Ling Yu froze: "What mission? I don't have any ability, I can't help you."

"Haha, you are the only one who is most suitable. Don't worry, everything can be settled for you. Once you help me, I will help you get revenge... How about it?"

The woman was stunned and lowered her head slightly, as if she was thinking about something.

After a long while, as if being tempted, he opened his lips slightly: "Okay, I promise you, happy cooperation."

"That's good. In this world, you have to make Mo Xuan fall in love with you and be crazy about you. In this way... he won't die. You don't have to ask any more questions, just do it."

"Don't worry, I will give you all the help before that. You will enter the palace soon..." The ghostly voice said this and disappeared without waiting for Lingyu to react.

"Why..." Ling Yu was very confused and was about to speak when the voice disappeared.

With a light sigh, Lingyu rubbed his aching head and fell into a deep sleep.

On the other side, that ghostly voice sounded again from somewhere.

"King, it's been done... But do you really want to do this? She doesn't even remember... Ah!"

A muffled groan was heard in the darkness.

"She doesn't remember, but I will never forget! Anyone who hurts me must die... and she is no exception!" The man's voice came from the void, a little angry, and sounded extremely cold.

"Oh, I really don't understand her. She actually... would plead guilty and ask for life. Well, you can leave now."

"I'll take my leave. I'll complete the task well."

A black shadow flashed, and then there was nothingness again.

......

Shi Qi looked at the closet full of black robes and the corners of his mouth twitched slightly.

Di Liao's voice kept urging from outside the door: "Shi Qi, hurry up, the Xuantong Gate will be closed soon!"

Shi Qi thought about her appearance and finally... gave up dressing up.

Never mind. The original owner had good taste. After all, bright colors...don't suit this appearance.

As soon as Shi Qi opened the door, he was greeted by Di Liao's smiling face: "Hey, it's been a long time since we went on a mission together, let's go."

"Which time and space should we go to first?" Shi Qi asked calmly.

“Hmm... let me think about it, in ancient times? The ancients were superstitious, so it was easier for them to succeed.” Di Liao said with a smile, looking determined to succeed.

"It's easier to bring back a soul than to summon it back. I feel like this isn't a good thing." Shi Qi suppressed the vague uneasiness in his heart.

"Okay, don't worry. There is no soul we can't seduce. Besides, this time it's Mo Xuan, an emperor. It's easiest to deal with such a ruthless and loveless person." Di Liao said while comforting Shi Qi.

"That's right." Shi Qi nodded.

People who are heartless and loveless have no obsessions, so sometimes their soul consciousness is very weak and it won’t take long for them to take their lives.

They have never failed in their quest to take lives and collect souls, because humans are really weak in front of ghosts and gods.

Besides, they can't fail...even once.

The underworld has its own rules for the dead, which Shi Qi finds very abnormal.

It is allowed to summon the wrong soul, but if you fail to summon the soul, then... you will be dismissed from your post and will no longer be able to be a ghost catcher.

If she can't be a ghost messenger, she won't be able to come into contact with Yama Luo and Meng Po at all, let alone her mission.

Shi Qi was speechless. This meant that if she failed once, the mission would be half done.

"Are you sure that the first soul is Mo Xuan? If you tick the wrong one again, you will have to solve it yourself next time." Shi Qi said calmly.

"I...last time it was an accident okay. If you accompany me this time, it will definitely be possible. Besides, Yan Luo said that we have plenty of time. I don't believe that we can't get three souls in half a year. Take your time, hehe." Di Liao said with a smile.

"Why do we have so much time this time? In the past, it was always three per month." Shi Qi asked indifferently, puzzled.

"How can we guess what Yan Luo is thinking? Maybe he is worried about you. After all, your body has just recovered and your underworld power has not yet recovered." Di Liao replied.

"I really envy you. You said that there are only two girls in the underworld, you and Meng Po, and you are very lovable. But she is also cold and doesn't like to talk." Di Liao said regretfully, with his hands behind his back.

Shi Qi was slightly stunned: "Not talkative? Cold and icy?"

So the warm and delicate person she met last time was fake?

"Have you forgotten? The only people in the entire underworld she took the initiative to talk to were you and Yama. Besides, she was talking to Yama to plead for you." Di Liao said.

"But I'm confused. Why does she protect you and stick to you so much? Is it because you are uglier than her?" Di Liao said, made a face at Shi Qi, and ran away quickly.

Shi Qi looked at the white shadow running away, and the corners of his mouth twitched wildly.

Why? It's because of her beauty... ahem, her character!

Trying to calm down, I followed.

Xuantong Gate is a time-space gate that can allow one to enter two time and space at will.

After Shi Qi followed Di Liao in, he felt as if his soul was cleansed and felt a little painful.

"Your body is also weird. In the entire underworld, you are the only one who feels pain when traveling. Girl, it's okay to scream when it hurts." Di Liao naturally held Shi Qi's hand and blocked Shi Qi tightly behind him.

Countless bright lights came, and in the blink of an eye, they had arrived in ancient time and space.

The time they arrived was exactly night in the human world.

The woods were somewhat eerie, with the faint howling of wolves heard in the depths. The moon hanging in the sky was so pale that it gave people a chill.
