Chapter 1109 - 1106: What I’m Smoking Isn’t Cigarettes, It’s Loneliness
The Ghost Ant Queen was incredibly fast, now reaching the high-level king rank, swiftly passing over the mountains below.
In the blink of an eye, it disappeared into the horizon.
Chu Hao stood atop the Mysterious Queen’s head; it was very stable here, with no sense of the fierce external wind.
The Ghost Ant Queen was very excited, accelerating again and again, erupting with massive booming sounds in the void. Farmers plowing the fields couldn’t resist looking up, but saw nothing.
Chu Hao closed his eyes, examining the aura within him, searching for the Yanhuang Netherworld’s aura.
He found the energy of the yin aura; indeed, it was still there and began operating. The space ahead rotated like a nightmare, revealing a dark passage.
The Ghost Ant Queen plunged right into it.
Chu Hao originally thought he could instantly reach the Yanhuang Netherworld, but he saw another tunnel entrance.
Standing at the front of the dark passage, he distinctly saw two scenes: one was the Netherworld Ghost Gate, and the other was the Soul Guiding Hall of the Yanhuang Netherworld.
"What’s going on?"
Chu Hao saw the Netherworld Ghost Gate, and some ghosts being ushered into the gate by the Ghost Officiants.
Chu Hao frowned and said, "Is the Ghost Gate open again?"
This Yin Cao Netherworld is truly shameless; after the Foreign Ghosts were eradicated, they reopened the Ghost Gate, letting ghosts inside.
If one didn’t know the true nature of this Yin Cao Netherworld, they would truly be glad.
However, Chu Hao’s face darkened.
Chu Hao entered the entrance of the Soul Guiding Hall, arriving at the Yanhuang Netherworld.
Changes in the Yanhuang Netherworld were significant; after seven years, the netherworld’s space had progressively expanded.
The arrival of the Ghost Ant Queen caused tremors, attracting the attention of the Yinsi and Netherworld Soldiers from the Soul Guiding Hall.
"It’s the Ant Queen, why has it come to the Underworld?" A group of Yinsi and Ghost Officiants from the Soul Guiding Hall, upon seeing the Ghost Ant Queen, naturally recognized it.
This is the Saint Master Hall, and the Ghost Ant Queen is the renowned Holy Master’s steed.
The Holy Master is not only well-known in the Yang Realm but also in the Yanhuang Netherworld, because the Holy Master is also the Holy Master of the Underworld.
Rumor has it that in establishing the Yanhuang Netherworld, the Holy Master had significant contributions; even Yanjun would have to be respectful.
The Ghost Ant Queen’s arrival alarmed the high ranks of the Underworld.
Several experts of the Underworld appeared, alongside the Soul Pulling Chief, whose power had definitely reached the king level, albeit at the initial stage.
Chu Hao had never seen this Soul Pulling Chief before; he must have come later.
The Soul Pulling Chief respectfully said, "Welcome, Your Majesty Ant Queen."
The Ghost Ant Queen’s status is very high, even the Yinsi Chief cannot underestimate it — let alone the fact that it is merely the Holy Master’s steed, its power has reached the high-level king rank.
The Ghost Ant Queen’s antennae brushed against Chu Hao, seemingly saying: I’ve become quite formidable these years.
Chu Hao laughed heartily and said, "Look at you, all proud, go to the Soul-eating Hall."
The Ghost Ant Queen flapped its wings and disappeared from the Soul Guiding Hall, heading deeper into the Underworld.
The Chief of the Soul Guiding Hall didn’t even have time to become acquainted with the Ant Queen before it left, leaving him feeling helpless, returning to his station to work.
From above, Chu Hao saw the vastly changed Yanhuang Netherworld, a grand Ghost City. Chu Hao detected the shadow of Fengdu, but it was still far from the real Fengdu.
The Soul-eating Hall, it finally arrived.
An elegant Tinglou Pavilion with an inscription on the door plaque, reading "Soul-eating Hall," majestic and grand.
Countless Ghost Fetuses lined up, waiting to drink Soul-eating Soup.
Many Soul-eating Yinsi were busy; numerous Netherworld Soldiers guarded the place, but all were female.
The Ghost Ant Queen’s arrival attracted the attention of many Yinsi and Netherworld Soldiers.
Chu Hao patted the Ghost Ant Queen and said, "Wait here for me."
With that, he entered the Soul-eating Hall.
The space inside the Soul-eating Hall was large, over ten thousand square meters. Besides working Yinsi, there were some ghosts lining up to register.
Chu Hao approached to inquire, "Is the Soul-eating Totem Commander here?"
The ranking Yinsi was a girl; she was also a ghost, saying, "Do you have an appointment?"
Chu Hao smiled and said, "No, tell me where she is."
The girl shook her head and said, "No, the Soul-eating Totem Commander is very busy."
Chu Hao smiled and said, "I’m her husband; can’t I see her once?"
The girl opened her mouth wide, dumbfounded staring at Chu Hao, then after a long time rolling her eyes, said, "Where did this lunatic come from? The Soul-eating Totem Commander has a husband, you better not speak nonsense."
Chu Hao was taken aback.
Could it be, after leaving for seven years, missing from people’s memory for seven years, Luo Yan had already!!
Chu Hao said, "Since when does the Soul-eating Totem Commander have a husband?"
The girl shook her head and said, "I can’t speak nonsense about this. You should leave quickly."
Chu Hao felt oppressed in his heart; he left the Soul-eating Hall in disappointment.
Standing outside, Chu Hao felt a wave of desolation, his lonely silhouette eliciting unease and sorrow. With a bitter smile, he said, "Even the King of Show-offs has a day like today, haha."
Chu Hao glanced at the Soul-eating Hall, turned, and was about to leave.
Suddenly, a pair of figures came ahead, escorted by Netherworld Soldiers, with Yinsi trailing behind.
At the forefront, a woman in a red robe, heroic and impressive, her figure stunning, especially her long legs, flawless, emitting a domineering presence akin to a female CEO.
If not Luo Yan, who else could it be?
Luo Yan came forward; she held a document, slightly frowning as she looked, subconsciously biting her lip, very charming.
This is a motion she unconsciously does when contemplating matters.
"Commander, these are special ghosts in the past half month; they refuse to reincarnate," said a seductive woman with long legs and a devilish figure, Luo Yan’s assistant.
Luo Yan raised her head and said, "You handle it yourself."
"Yes," the seductive woman nodded.
At this moment, Luo Yan noticed Chu Hao.
Chu Hao also gazed directly at her.
Luo Yan subconsciously stopped in her tracks, separated by only five meters from Chu Hao. The surrounding Netherworld Soldiers and Yinsi also halted.
They looked at each other, with Chu Hao lighting a cigarette, taking a deep drag.
First meeting after seven years.
Chu Hao’s emotions were heavy; he was somewhat angry and somewhat confused.
Should I have come back or not.
After a long time.
The seductive Soul-eating Deputy Commander beside called out, "Commander?"
Luo Yan snapped out of it and said, "Let’s go, convene a meeting with first-level Soul-eating Yinsi, I need to hold a meeting."
"Yes,"
Luo Yan proceeded forward.
Chu Hao also moved forward.
Thus, the two passed by each other.
Chu Hao dropped his cigarette, feeling bitter inside. She indeed didn’t remember me.
Suddenly, a clear and pleasant voice rang out, "Brother, do you have another cigarette?"
Chu Hao turned around.
Luo Yan had already turned around, smiling at him.
Chu Hao said, "I’m not smoking cigarettes; I’m smoking loneliness."
"Ding... Host successfully showed off, earning forty thousand Pretentiousness Points."
The Yinsi’s mouths twitched; where did this guy come from, acting so pretentiously.
What bewildered them even more was why the Commander wanted a cigarette from him; it was incredible.
Luo Yan was exasperated with black lines and said again, "If you don’t have it, forget it."
Chu Hao added, "My cigarettes are only for unmarried ladies, not married women."
