Chapter 39 So you call yourself Hades?
Chapter 39 So you call yourself Hades?
"Captain, step back, leave this to me."
Ling Yunxiao stood up confidently; he had no choice but to be confident!
The moment he sensed Hades' presence, the Judge's Pen and the Book of Life and Death appeared radiantly before him.
Ling Yunxiao didn't even need to lift a finger; they were already suspended in the air, gently turning the pages and putting pen to paper.
The judge's pen spent a long time writing this line of blood-red characters, and it wasn't finished until Hades appeared.
"You two ants, what brings you here? Are you here to die?"
Hades was puzzled and even somewhat lost.
Ling Yunxiao sneered and stepped in front of Wang Mian. Just then, the judge's pen finally finished writing the last word and put down its pen.
The sky grew increasingly dark. Ling Yunxiao and his companion stood atop the snow-covered mountain, gazing at the endless darkness behind Hades, yet their eyes showed no fear.
Behind them, dark clouds loomed, and an even more oppressive aura was slowly gathering.
To Hades' astonishment, a gentle scholar with jet-black hair and beard, dressed in a bright red official robe, slowly emerged from the darkness.
The judge's pen flew out automatically, circled the person, and landed in his hand.
"Cui Jue of the Underworld Law Division, greetings."
Cui Jue nodded slightly to Ling Yunxiao. He naturally dared not neglect the Empress's bloodline.
"I'm sorry to trouble you, Lord Cui, to take action."
Ling Yunxiao clasped his hands together and bowed respectfully to Cui Jue.
Cui Jue turned slightly to the side, refusing the greeting, and then looked up at Hades.
"So you're the one called Hades?"
Hades felt the terrifying pressure from the figure and took two steps back in disbelief.
"How is that possible? I killed you with my own hands in that war of the gods. How could you possibly be here?"
Originally, Cui Jue's eyes held only three parts curiosity and three parts contempt.
Upon hearing Hades' words, his eyes filled with intense anger.
"In other words, you participated in the war that destroyed this world's underworld and even killed me in this world."
"Very well, you're quite capable. Come on! Let me see just how powerful you gods from beyond the primordial world truly are."
As soon as Cui Jue finished speaking, he wielded his judge's pen and splashed ink, writing the character for "death" in the air.
Hades' expression changed drastically; he clearly sensed the threat of death. Therefore, without hesitation, he struck his chest with his palm.
A cloud of blood mist suddenly appeared in front of Hades, blocking the word "death" as his figure retreated rapidly, disappearing completely in the blink of an eye.
Cui Jue watched his retreating figure with a hint of helplessness, showing no intention of pursuing him.
“I’m sorry, his name is not in the Book of Life and Death. I wrote it down on the spot and did not make a definitive judgment on whether he should live or die.”
However, you don't need to worry. Just tell me his name, and I will write it down and save it now.
If you have the chance to meet again, you can simply draw a line over his name.
Cui Jue reverted to his usual gentle and scholarly demeanor, even appearing somewhat nervous as he offered his explanation.
In his eyes, Ling Yunxiao was not only a direct descendant of the Empress, but also the current wielder of the Book of Man, a being capable of summoning the Five Directions and Ten Palaces.
"Thank you for your trouble, Lord Prefect."
He is Hades, the god of the underworld from Greek mythology.
Ling Yunxiao clasped his hands in a salute once more, and a bold idea involuntarily surfaced in his mind.
After writing Hades' name, Cui Jue vanished.
Ling Yunxiao hurriedly went to look through the Book of People. This battle hadn't even started. His and Judge's Pen's plans had all failed because of Hades' Blood Escape. He wanted to see how much they had lost.
"He severely injured Hades, contributed divine essence and blood, and gained 150 million cycles of power."
Reincarnation Power balance: -210.1.
Ling Yunxiao's eyes widened immediately. It seemed that his idea had to be carried out.
"Captain, let's head to the East China Sea right now. We should still be able to catch a glimpse of the Sea God."
"Aren't you going back to Cangnan?"
Wang Mian was slightly taken aback. Cangnan was the main battlefield, wasn't it?
Ling Yunxiao couldn't help but picture a small house in the old town, where a mother and child were still waiting for Lin Qiye to come home, and the little black dog was probably lying at their feet.
"Captain, as I just said, our Great Xia has gods. There's no need to rush back. The limit that the invading gods can achieve is only destroying a city."
There won't be any casualties. But if some deity gets carried away and attacks the old town, then things will get interesting.
Ling Yunxiao smiled. The reason why Yang Jian and the little black dog didn't act earlier was because they wanted to accompany Wang Fang through her final moments.
But now, if these gods threaten Wang Fang's safety, it depends on whether the god and the dog agree.
Meanwhile, in Cangnan.
When the Frost Giant appeared, the Masked Squad had already stood beside Chen Muye.
"Hey, Brother Ling's little mouse brother, you're here too! Not bad, you've gotten even stronger."
The whirlpool appeared beside An Qingyu and greeted him with a smile.
"Are you here too?"
An Qingyu was quite surprised, because due to the unexpected event brought by Ling Yunxiao, Chen Muye didn't even have time to see Hongying and the others off this time.
So, the entire 136th squad was already there. An Qingyu had just said that her appearance was her responsibility as a citizen of Cangnan when she suddenly felt a little regretful.
With Cangnan's current defensive capabilities, plus the people Ling Yunxiao brought, he might not even need to show up.
As two sea beasts emerged from the Frost Gate, Bu Li's Thunder God Pillar slammed down on the gate.
"Leave this to us, you and Phoenix go to the city."
The vortex waved to Bu Li, then looked at Zhao Kongcheng.
"General, you stay and help Captain Chen deal with the Frost Giants. Tianping, let's go meet those two seafood."
"With the king gone, it's not your place to boss us around! We'll stay here and let Bu Li lead the team into the city."
Xia Simeng frowned as she looked at the sea beast not far away, which showed no intention of leaving.
Whirlpool knew that the captain was not there, and the rest of them were a bit overwhelmed, so they didn't waste any more words and rushed straight towards the thin man.
Finally, when Lin Qiye appeared, the two special teams had already confronted the two sea monsters.
"Seven Nights, you can leave the summoned beasts to the special team. You can go into the city with Red Cherry and the others!"
"team leader!"
"The frost giants have been mostly killed. You all go into the city to help with the defense. I have some personal grudges to settle and will be back soon."
After Chen Muye finished speaking, he swooped down in one direction.
Just as he rushed out, Lin Qiye grabbed his shoulder and stopped him in place.
As soon as Lin Qiye finished speaking, he activated the teleportation spell. Chen Muye looked furious, but it was too late. He could only shout a few words of explanation.
"Seven Nights, you must never leave Cangnan City..."
