The boss is back and she doesn’t pretend to be a fake daughter anymore

Only after seeing off Jiang Xuxu and his group did Yi Zhan stop in front of the Ghost Gate. His fox eyes glanced at the little black paper man on his shoulder. His voice was lazy, but it was intimidating and could not be refused.

"Still not going down?"

The little black paper man hugged his collar with both hands, as if trying to pretend not to hear, but after hesitating for two seconds, he obediently jumped off his shoulder.

The light paper man fell to the ground. Yi Zan glanced down at it and said nothing more. He just raised his leg and walked straight through the ghost gate and left.

……

In the Hall of Yama, in front of the case.

Sensing that Yi Zhan's breath disappeared in the underworld, Ming Yan, who was sitting in front of the desk, lowered his eyes slightly.

"Even the little paper figurine can't get close to me..."

It sounded like a soft murmur, and when it exhaled, it was like a silent sigh.

"You were the one who taught me this technique."

At the same time, the little black paper man also sighed, and the next second, he turned into a wisp of green smoke.

The green smoke floated back to the King of Hell's Palace and automatically floated back into Ming Yan's sleeves.

Ming Yan stood up from the desk and looked at the Yama Palace in front of him. His consciousness seemed to return to the time when they first met along with the solemn Dharma Hall.

*

Seven thousand years ago, even earlier than Tianyuan.

At that time, Yi Zhan was still the King of Hell, and he was just a ghost king born out of unwillingness and resentment.

"Where did this little ghost come from? He even dared to kill the ghost messenger from the underworld. No wonder..."

That was the first time he met Yi Zan.

A man with long hair, a white robe, and a graceful demeanor. He is exquisite from head to toe, and his face is particularly delicate.

It just so happens that such a person is actually the King of Hell.

Ming Yan thought that with the strength of the Ghost King on his side, he could fight against the opponent, but he never expected that he would be knocked down by him after just one encounter.

The exquisite boots embroidered with gold thread seemed to step on his back casually, but he had no power to resist.

He stepped on him like that, and still had time to look through the Book of Life and Death, and finally, he found his name.

"I thought so. He was carrying the purple aura, which should have been his destiny to be an emperor. But his destiny was changed. He was despised by the people and died by having his bones removed..."

As Yizhan spoke, he sighed, "How miserable."

Then he picked him up and taught him a lesson.

"But no matter how miserable it is, it is not a reason for you to devour evil ghosts and become a ghost king. You still dare to kill my ghost messenger, who gave you the courage?

Do you know how much effort it takes to train a good ghost messenger? "

Later, Ming Yan found out that the ghost messenger he killed was, in modern terms, a loser.

But he had already been killed, so Ming Yan asked him,

"What are you going to do with me? Send me to the eighteen levels of hell? Walk on a mountain of knives? Throw me in a frying pan?"

Yizhan met his murderous eyes and threw him aside with some disgust.

"You have to go to the underworld to cleanse yourself of this sinful debt."

Then, he was thrown into the River Lethe.

After fishing him out again, he had no intention of imprisoning him on the Eighteenth Floor, but instead kept him by his side.

According to Yizhan,

"You killed my most useful ghost messenger, so you will replace him for the next hundred years and stay in the underworld to help me work."

He didn't even give him a chance to object.

Under Yi Zan's suppression by force, he, Ming Yan, who was already the King of Ghosts, stayed in the King of Hell's Palace during the day to help deal with various documents, and helped him catch escaped or evil ghosts at night.

It’s not that Ming Yan hasn’t thought about resisting.

But if he ever wants to do anything bad, the little black paper man who is left behind to supervise him will attack him first.

It's not okay to destroy the little black paper man.

As soon as the little black paper man who served as his clone was destroyed, Yi Zan appeared and beat him to the ground.

Running away is even worse.

No matter where he escaped to, Yizhan would always find him first.

Then there was a new round of violent suppression.

Just when he was about to lose his temper because of being used as free labor and a punching bag, a big event happened in the underworld.

Yi Zhan, the King of Hell, arbitrarily dealt with King Biancheng, the sixth of the Ten Courts of Hell.

At that time, the King of Fengdu was still there, and King Yama was just one of the Ten Yama Kings. Even though he had the highest status among the Ten Yama Kings, he was still on the same level as King Biancheng.

Under such circumstances, Yi Zan dealt with King Biancheng privately.

The reason is that King Biancheng colluded with an evil teacher in the world to seize the emperor's fate, causing chaos in the world.

Everyone knows that the underworld does not interfere in human affairs, but King Biancheng, one of the Ten Courts of Hell, not only interfered, but also attempted to control the change of dynasties.

This is a serious sin.

The one whose fate as emperor was being snatched away was none other than Ming Yan.

The victim was right in front of him, and Yi Zan was dealing with him directly, so even if others had something to say, they had nothing to say at this moment.

It was not until then that Ming Yan understood why Yi Zan insisted on keeping him.

As early as when he discovered that his imperial destiny had been taken away, he had guessed that something was fishy.

The emperor who carries the purple aura has an extraordinary destiny, which cannot be seized by ordinary cultivators.

Even if he took it away, the underworld would always find out the clues when he died.

But the underworld sensed nothing.

If Ming Yan had not been holding on to his resentment and had become a ghost king on his own, and had killed the ghost messenger, and had met Yi Zhan who happened to be strolling in the human world, perhaps the matter would not have been discovered.

The fact that it could be covered up so tightly must be because there is a traitor in the underworld.

Therefore, Yi Zan did not throw him into the eighteen levels of hell like he did to other evil ghosts. Instead, he kept him by his side and secretly investigated the underworld in his own way.

He threw all the work to him because he was busy investigating King Biancheng.

Putting him in the Palace of Hades is to prevent King Biancheng from finding out and attacking him secretly.

He gave him an explanation in his own way, and proposed compensation to him in the name of the underworld.

……

Ming Yan was never treated fairly for a single day during his lifetime or after his death.

But the person in front of him gave him fairness.

The Wangchuan River could not wash away his sins, but Yizhan gave him a clean name.

For the first time, Ming Yan felt the urge to stay with someone.

He thought so and did so.

In order to be able to stand by his side with a legitimate reason, he went through the punishment in hell himself, washed away his sins and came back to his side.

Yi Zan did not keep him, but threw him into the Sixth Palace.

"My Hades Palace is not short of people, but the Sixth Palace is short of a master. After all, you once had the fate of an emperor, so you should pursue higher goals."

Yi Zan sounded quite disappointed with what he said.

Ming Yan is not interested in becoming the new King of Biancheng, but Yi Zan wants him to be the King of Biancheng, so he will do it.

It took him three hundred years to transform from a ghost king who needed to be cleansed of his sins to the King of Biancheng in the Sixth Hall of the Underworld.

During this period, Yi Zan brought him with him without hesitation.

He taught him the rules of the underworld, taught him magic, took him drinking, and dressed him in nice clothes.

Yizhan is like a teacher and a friend to him.

He got to know him, became friends with him, and then stood side by side with him, walking through thousands of years together.

Ming Yan thought that they would always be like this.

If the 100,000 evil thoughts had not escaped, causing the death of Tianyuan's national guardian golden dragon, and Jianjia's sacrifice of his soul, and he had not attacked him...

They should have always been like this...
