The warriors of the Oni Clan surrounded us in a menacing manner, and the other party did not come with good intentions, and we also subconsciously stood in a triangle, leaving our backs to our teammates.

Xiao Hei had already jumped out of Ling Xi's arms, hunched his back on the ground, and bared his teeth, but for these ghost warriors who were glaring at us, they were undoubtedly no different from children.

"Hmph, see it, you think you can escape the pursuit of my ghost clan and offend us, just wait to die!" The ghost woman smirked.

"Arrest them all, and if they resist, shoot them to death!" The Ghost Clan Elder opened his mouth, and we immediately put on a defensive posture, ready to move at any time.

"Wait." Li Qian waved his sleeves, "Your Excellency should know that the next level is the same as your ghost king, if you really do it, I am afraid that your entire ghost clan will not necessarily be an opponent." ”

The elder snorted coldly, "Is Your Excellency trying to threaten our clan?" ”

Li Qian shook his head slightly: "Definitely." I just want to show the elders that we can talk about it well, so why bother to come up and do it? ”

The elder pondered for a moment, and then commanded his subordinates, "Arrest those three." ”

The ghost warriors swarmed up and grabbed the ghost woman and the other three from us.

"Elder, why did you arrest us, what did we do wrong?" The ghost woman shouted, her body really had no strength, and she was even more powerless to resist.

"As the sister of the ghost king, she didn't get the inheritance of her brother, which caused the power to flow out, and now she has been sucked dry and brought back, you are the shame of the ghost clan, and you didn't ask for your head at that time, you are already considered the old man's magnanimity!" The elder's eyes widened, and the woman didn't dare to speak, so she was obediently taken down.

"What are you doing here?" The elder turned his gaze back to us again, especially when he looked at Xiao Hei unkindly.

"Naturally, for the sake of the Ghost King, visit Lord Yang Yun, the Northern Ghost Emperor." Li Qian replied, "Although it is said that it is innocent to die without trespassing into the human world, after all, he is a subordinate of the Northern Ghost Emperor, and we will kill him, so naturally we have to give an explanation to the Ghost Emperor." ”

The elder nodded: "You not only have to give an explanation to Lord Ghost Emperor, but also give an explanation to our ghost clan." ”

With that, he waved his hand, and the ghost warriors surrounded us again.

Li Qian frowned: "Elder, what do you mean by this?" ”

"For our ghost clan, the loss of a ghost king is equivalent to the loss of most of the combat power. Since the inheritance of our ghost king has been taken away by you, then you must complete the mission for him! ”

Inexplicably taken to an open place by the ghost clan, two ghost clans in robes saluted the elder.

"The north has always been the defense point of the entire Netherworld, and now the demon beasts are rampant in the abyss, and our clan is in danger, and we must destroy it and restore peace to the Netherworld." After the elder finished speaking, he pointed at us with the cane in his hand, "The ghost king of my clan must lead the ghost commander to fight bravely to kill the enemy, and now that he is dead, you will complete this difficult task for him!" ”

After saying that, the two robed ghost clans began to chant incantations, and a huge rune array was generated under our feet, and a suction force came from below.

"The Nether Abyss is somewhere down here, and this teleportation circle can take you there. Kill those monsters who are making trouble underground, the old man will let you out, and at the same time allow you to go to Lord Yang Yun, if you dare to escape, or die below without completing the task, you will not want to escape the punishment of my ghost clan! ”

The Elder's voice still echoed in our ears, and we had been sent to the underworld by the teleportation array.

The wind gusted, bigger and more fierce than the ground, and when you stood firm, you could see that it had been replaced by dense rock formations. There was a shout of slaughter ahead, and the warriors of the ghost clan were fighting with the demon beasts in the Netherworld Abyss.

The battle was extremely fierce, and several soldiers surrounded a demon beast and stabbed and slashed with the weapons in their hands. The demon beast is also very vicious, opening its mouth to bite the soldiers of the ghost clan, tearing off their stumps and swallowing them in their mouths.

Every demon beast shows the demon clan soldiers as a thorn in their side, and every soldier also treats the demon beasts as thorns in the flesh, and they are all fighting with their own lives and blood.

"It seems that we can no longer sit idly by." Li Qian flicked down the sleeves of his robe, "These abyssal demon beasts are extremely fierce existences, and they will emerge from the abyss every once in a while, threatening the ghost clan on the netherworld, and even the emperor has no way to take them." The ghost emperor of each side will regularly send troops to encircle and suppress, and it seems that this time in the north is particularly serious. ”

"Could it have something to do with the coming of the Millennium Tribulation?" I asked, turning my head.

"Perhaps." Li Qian nodded, the person had already floated out, and raised his hand to lift a demon beast that was about to bite off the head of a certain ghost clan.

I also released the sprite clone and tore at the nearby demon beasts, while Ling Xi took Xiao Hei to see the situation of the wounded soldiers.

Li Qian and I opened our bows left and right, dealing with the demon beasts on both sides respectively, and many soldiers of the ghost clan were rescued by us from the mouths of the demon beasts, and then Ling Xi went over to treat their injuries.

Temporarily relieving the pressure on the front line, a ghost general walked towards us.

"The three of them should be the recognition of the Ghost King in the Elder's Contact, right? I'm the guard here, and my name is 'Oni'. ”

We saluted slightly, his gaze stayed on Xiao Hei, and he couldn't help frowning: "A Nether Beast, you can actually subdue this creature. ”

"He's our friend." I replied, and at the same time, Xiao Hei came to Ling Xi's side vigilantly and rubbed his head against his ankle.

"Many of your ghost clan soldiers have been seriously injured, it's best to carry them down quickly to recuperate, I have helped them stop the bleeding, but those who have lost their arms, I'm afraid this is the only way." There was a hint of regret in Ling Xi's tone.

The ghost looked at him: "You seem to be ...... It's a human being. ”

"Yes, but we're here to help you, and I hope you'll accept it." Ling Xi nodded.

The ghost Ming's gaze turned to Li Qian again: "Just now, seeing that Your Excellency's strength is extraordinary, it seems that the person who got the inheritance of the Ghost King that the elder said should be you, right?" ”

Li Qian gently hooked his lips and took me in his arms: "No, the master is already a ghost king, but he just killed that guy, as for his inheritance, it was taken by my wife." So it's mainly her who comes to help you this time! ”

The ghost raised his eyebrows slightly and looked at me carefully: "She...... Could it be that she is a once-in-a-millennium walking corpse? ”

"I am." I generously admitted, "Since the ghost general knows about the corpse lady, then I don't need to say more." The heart of the ghost king is here, and his divine thoughts have also been destroyed by me, and I will give you an explanation of the ghost clan here! ”

He was silent for a while, and then nodded: "General Ben doesn't talk like those guys who only command in the rear, everyone who comes here to help us, we will treat them as friends!" Since you're here to help destroy the Abyss Demon Beasts of the Netherworld, let me explain the current situation to you! ”

According to the ghosts, these demon beasts have two attacks every day, now and at night. With each attack, a large number of ghost warriors were sacrificed, they were already exhausted by torture, and they were in great need of strong reinforcements.

"Every time the monster attacks, there is a sound, and it has been like this for thousands of years, we have tried to find the source of the sound, but every time we have failed. So we can only speculate that maybe these monsters are organized, just like some social animals in your human world, as soon as the leader gives some kind of signal, they start to act. ”

I think this explanation of the ghost is particularly down-to-earth: "You actually know about the human world, have you also been to the human world?" ”

He shook his head: "I haven't been there, but occasionally I meet some ghosts, and they will talk about things in the human world." I've been on fire here for thousands of years, and there's always a chance to hear it. More often than not, though, we're here to keep an eye on the abyss. ”

The attack of the demon beast was temporarily resisted by us, so everyone hurried to recuperate. The Ghost General welcomed us into the Great Tent and introduced the leaders of several other Ghost Clans.

They looked at us with mixed eyes, some dismissive, some suspicious, and more curious, but as the ghost said, none of them showed any particular hostility towards us, and probably the sergeants here agreed that the only one who could help was a friend.

"I don't know how long this battle will last, so I'll arrange a place for you to live first." After the ghost general finished speaking, he summoned a young man from the ghost clan and asked him to take us to his camp to rest.

The young man's name is Ghost Ying, and there are no other men in the family, so he can only be asked to participate in the war. Through chatting with him, I learned that the style of the ancient Huaxia Kingdom is still maintained here, and looking at the furnishings inside, it seems to have returned to the ancient battlefield.

"If you need anything, I will show up when you call me, I am specially arranged by Lord Ghost to serve the three of them, so you are welcome." Ghost Ying smiled at us in a friendly manner, but the eyes that looked at Xiao Hei were still a little jealous.

"Okay, thank you." Ling Xi picked it up, "Xiao Hei is very well-behaved, it won't hurt you, don't worry." We can also take care of ourselves, and we hope that you will convey our gratitude to the Ghost Immortal General on our behalf. ”

Ghost Ying nodded and went out, and the three of us were in the tent with a cat.

"Li Qian, what do you think of this place?" Ling Xi hugged Xiao Hei and asked.

"I don't know much about the Abyssal Demon Beasts of the Netherworld, but I've heard of these battles." Li Qian found a place a little farther away from Xiao Hei and sat down, "The abyss is the most mysterious existence in the Netherworld, no one knows what is inside, but there are also rumors that it is a terrifying monster that will devour all the ghosts and undead that fall. ”

"If it's really as the ghost said, every once in a while, there will be a chirp from inside the abyss, and control those abyss demon beasts, maybe there is really something in it that we don't know about."

I was a little worried, "So how long are we going to stay here?" If the problem of the abyss is not solved, it is impossible for us to leave, originally I was thinking of escaping, and I would go to see the Northern Ghost Emperor first, but now it seems that those soldiers of the Ghost Clan, if I don't help them, I will not be at ease. ”

As he was talking, a loud howl came from outside, Xiao Hei immediately pricked up his ears, followed by the sound of the military trumpet, and someone shouted in the barracks: "All assemble, the demon beast is rushing over!" ”
