My Wife is A Sword God - Chapter 790: Loyal and Devoted Tubo
“Master? How did you come here?” Tubo exclaimed in surprise.
After a moment of thought, it realized the crux of the matter and exclaimed, “You’re the one who dared to enter the Netherworld?”
“The one who dared to enter the Netherworld?” Qin Feng asked curiously.
Having entered the Netherworld directly from the crack, he naturally didn’t know what had happened during that time.
Seeing this, Tubo slowly explained everything it knew.
Qin Feng frowned upon hearing this. He had planned to sneak through the Gate of Hell and enter the depths of the Netherworld. He hadn’t expected to be targeted by the inhabitants of the Netherworld before even taking action.
“Lord Shentu has ordered that if anyone finds you, you are to be killed on sight.”
“Aside from ghost generals who are guarding the Negate Bridge and the ghost generals who went to the mortal realm, most of the other ghost generals have gathered at the Gate of Hell to search for your whereabouts. Once they find you, they will surely attack you for a reward. For your safety, Young Master, you should hurry back,” Tubo said.
Although the words on the surface were words of loyalty, Tubo’s inner thoughts were far from that reality.
It wanted to capture Qin Feng to gain merit, but it lacked the strength to do so. And Qin Feng’s arrival at this moment was certainly related to the Ghost Emperor who was going to face the punishment of Hades in two days.
As someone who feared death, it naturally didn’t want to get involved in such troublesome matters, hence its advice for Qin Feng to leave.
However, facing the inevitable, Qin Feng asked, “Where is the Abyssal Prison?”
Tubo looked troubled and then saw the crimson thunder snake in Qin Feng’s hand crackling.
It hurriedly replied, “The Abyssal Prison exists within the void cracks of the Netherworld.”
“It’s omnipresent but extremely difficult to enter. Because in the entire Netherworld, only two individuals can open the Abyssal Prison: one is the Ghost Lord, and the other is the central Ghost Emperor, Lord Zhou Qi.”
Pausing for a moment, it continued, “Young Master, I know you’re here to save the Ghost Emperor, but what the Ghost Emperor has done has angered many.”
“Sending the Ghost Emperor to Hades is the decree of the Ghost Lord, and it has been accepted by all the Ghost Emperors. Trying to save the Ghost Emperor is tantamount to antagonizing the entire Netherworld. I advise you to think twice. After all, with your strength…”
You can only bully me. Tubo added silently in his heart.
“Do you think my father is really what they said?” Qin Feng asked with a frown.
He knew his father’s character very well. Since he had come to the Netherworld and become the Ghost Emperor, his father would surely do everything in his power to maintain the balance between the Netherworld and the Mortal Realm. He couldn’t possibly do anything harmful to the Netherworld.
The reason for disrupting the balance of life and death must have been imposed on his father by some hidden manipulator.
Looking at it now, it was highly likely that it was Ghost Emperor Shentu.
Although the purpose of the other party was still unknown, Qin Feng would never allow him to succeed.
When he heard this, Tubo was a bit stunned. He didn’t really care whether the information was true or not. When the crowd in the Netherworld was excited, he also echoed and said many bad things about Lord Ghost Emperor, mainly to fit in.
“Ghost Emperor is upright and honest, I naturally don’t believe it. When those people slandered the Ghost Emperor, I stood up and criticized them face-to-face. But unfortunately, I’m just a lowly gatekeeper, and my words carry little weight,” Tubo sighed, appearing distressed.
Qin Feng naturally didn’t believe these words, but he still said, “I didn’t expect you to be so loyal at this time.”
Tubo replied, “It’s only right. The Ghost Emperor has treated me well, and I have always been very grateful. It’s just a pity that I haven’t had the chance to repay him.”
“There is a chance.”
“Hmm?”
Qin Feng said, “I need to pass through the Gate of Hell to find Senior Li Yang. I was worried about not having anyone to guide me. Now is your chance to repay him.”
Tubo was frightened and hesitant. Most of the ghost generals in the Netherworld were currently searching for Qin Feng and wanted to kill him. If he joined him, wouldn’t it be the same as seeking death?
As it hesitated on how to refuse, it saw Qin Feng manipulating the annihilation thunder in his hand again, and arcs of thunder surged.
“It’s my pleasure!”
Outside the Gate of Hell in the southern region of the Netherworld, on the Bone Road, countless ghost generals were on high alert.
However, they had waited for a long time, but there was no movement around them.
Just then, two figures, one large and one small, slowly walked from the end of the Bone Road.
Some of the ghost generals loudly questioned, “Tubo, as the guardian of the Gate of Hell, how dare you leave your post? And who is behind you?”
Tubo hurriedly replied, “He is my deputy, who usually patrols the wilderness outside the Gate of Hell to prevent any souls from escaping. Now that someone has intruded into the Netherworld, I brought him back to help guard this place and prevent any escapees.”
Upon hearing this, the crowd showed displeasure. Naturally, they didn’t want anyone to come and share the benefits at this moment.
“It’s strange that you, a lowly gatekeeper, actually have a deputy? ” the ghost generals remarked as they looked at Qin Feng, dressed in a black hood, surrounded by ghostly energy. He was obviously from the Netherworld.
Tubo felt extremely nervous. When he had heard earlier that Qin Feng wanted to enter through the main entrance of the Gate of Hell, he could hardly believe his ears.
But now, it seemed to have indeed caught them off guard, and at least no one seemed to be suspicious.
Feeling the chilling killing intent at the back of his neck, Tubo pretended to be calm and said, “I’ve been in the Netherworld for thousands of years, so what’s so strange about having a deputy?”
“Yeah, after thousands of years of cultivation, you only have this level of strength,” sneered one of the ghost generals.
Tubo snorted coldly and refused to pay attention to it. He just wanted to take Qin Feng, the time bomb, away from the current place of controversy as soon as possible.
Just as he was about to breathe a sigh of relief as they approached the Gate of Hell, another ghost general asked, “By the way, Tubo, you mentioned earlier that you had grievances against that foreign ghost emperor. In two days, he’ll face the punishment of Hades and be destroyed. Why don’t we go together to witness that delightful scene?”
“Heh, just the thought of it makes me feel relieved. What right does a foreigner have to be a Ghost Emperor?”
“That’s right. When he was here, he didn’t allow us to feast on the souls of the undead recklessly. Now that he’s about to die, I’d like to see who dares to stop us.”
“Haha, with Lord Qi Kang leading the ghost generals to open the path to the mortal realm, who would want to feast on the souls of the dead? The taste of the living must be infinitely better.”
“You make sense!”
The ghost generals burst into laughter, spewing all sorts of vulgarities and insults at Father Qin.
Tubo stood frozen in place, casting a cautious glance at Qin Feng behind him, hoping the latter wouldn’t act too impulsively.
But just as the one leading the insults laughed the loudest, a thunderous annihilation thunder wrapped in ghostly energy pierced through his skull with lightning speed, silencing him instantly!
For a moment, the entire scene fell into silence.
This little ancestor actually dared to strike! Tubo was instantly frightened out of its wits.
