"Let's go into the dungeon. We can talk about some things while walking." Bai Ming said to everyone.

The group nodded and followed him towards the Tombs of the Five Kings.

Along the way, Bai Ming remained silent, as if he was thinking about something.

Huang Quan just followed him silently.

Finally, the group arrived at the depths of the dungeon, where two figures were waiting.

"Mengli, how have you been since we last met?" Bai Ming greeted her from a distance.

"Brother Bai Ming." Mengli gave Bai Ming a sweet smile.

As for the other person, who else could it be but Dick? He rushed towards Bai Ming with admiration on his face.

"Lord Tanlang! You are finally here! I missed you so much!"

Dick hugged Bai Ming and shouted excitedly.

"Okay, stop getting close to my face. It's disgusting." Bai Ming pushed Dick away with disgust.

Dick was not embarrassed and complained to himself: "Master Tanlang, why did you leave me here alone? I... wuwuwu!"

Bai Ming slapped him on the mouth, blocking out the rest of his words.

"Shut up." Bai Ming said coldly.

Dick curled his lips and said nothing more.

Bai Ming signaled everyone to rest here for a while, and he took Ayi to a deeper place.

There, the King of Souls is waiting.

"Your Excellency is indeed a man of his word."

[King of Soul] As soon as he saw Bai Ming, he immediately came up to him in a flattering manner, his tone very polite.

Bai Ming snorted coldly and said directly: "Stop talking nonsense. What do you want to see me about?"

The Soul King grinned, revealing a row of sharp white teeth.

"Of course I will surrender to you and serve you wholeheartedly."

As it spoke, it took out a black box from somewhere and presented it respectfully.

"This is?"

Bai Ming did not reach out to take it, but asked with interest.

"This is the gift I prepared for you. Please accept it." The Soul King said attentively, "Inside are some soul fragments of powerful people that I collected. They are all memories of my previous life. Maybe they will be useful to you."

Hearing this, Bai Ming finally became interested and stretched out a finger to open the lid of the box. A strange spiritual power wave immediately surged out from inside.

"Well, that's good. I'll accept it with pleasure." Bai Ming nodded with satisfaction and put the box in his arms.

Seeing this, the Soul King became more attentive.

"Your Excellency, please forgive me for my mistakes. I am so grateful! From now on, I will do anything for you, regardless of the dangers!"

As it spoke, it kowtowed to Bai Ming.

Bai Ming took a few steps back in disgust, fearing that his body would be splashed with its saliva.

"Okay, okay, just follow me when I work from now on." Bai Ming waved his hand casually, accepting its surrender.

The King of Souls was overjoyed and nodded repeatedly.

"Okay, go down and prepare first. I'll have something to do with you later." Bai Ming ordered.

"Yes, I'll take my leave! I'll go prepare a better gift for you. Please come back later. I'm just a little short of giving you the gift." The Soul King bowed respectfully and turned away.

Before leaving, he did not forget to flatter her a few more times, just like a pug.

Only when its figure disappeared did Bai Ming put away his smile and looked at Ayi thoughtfully.

"This guy is not simple... A better gift? What do you think it will be, Hajime?"

Ayi seemed to sense something, and put his claws on Bai Ming's shoulder, his dragon eyes full of concern.

"It's okay. Although this Soul King is treacherous, he is no match for me. With you here, I am even less afraid of him."

Bai Ming patted Yi's little head soothingly, then walked towards his friends.

Returning to the crowd again, Bai Ming looked around and said solemnly: "Although the Soul King has surrendered, I always feel that things are not that simple. It is probably not a good thing for it to collect the soul fragments of those strong men. Everyone should be more careful in the future."

"clear!"

Everyone responded in unison.

Bai Ming nodded and winked at Dick: "Come with me, I have something to ask you."

Upon hearing this, Dick came up to him happily and said, "Master Tanlang, please tell me what you want me to do. I will be happy to serve you!"

Bai Ming ignored his courtesy and said calmly, "You seem to know a lot about me, and you have been trying to find opportunities to get close to me. I am very curious, what is your purpose?"

Hearing this, the smile on Dick's face gradually disappeared, replaced by a hint of heaviness.

"Lord Tanlang, actually I..."

He opened his mouth as if he wanted to say something, but in the end he sighed, smiled and shook his head.

"Forget it. The time is not right yet. I cannot tell you the truth. But please believe me. I will never hurt you, let alone betray you. My destiny is destined to follow you."

After hearing this, Bai Ming frowned slightly.

Although Dick's words sounded mysterious, his sincere eyes and tone did not sound fake.

It seems...he is really loyal to me?

But Bai Ming's intuition told him that things were not as simple as they seemed.

Dick's identity is probably of great significance.

"Forget it. If you don't want to tell me for now, forget it. But don't think you can keep it a secret forever. I won't give you this chance again when the time comes."

Bai Ming snorted coldly, didn't ask any more questions, turned around and was about to leave.

"and many more!"

Dick hurriedly grabbed Bai Ming's arm and said earnestly, "Master Tanlang, I know you are still wary of me now, but please give me a chance to prove myself! Whatever you want me to do, I will do it!"

Bai Ming stopped, looked back at Dick for a long while, and a playful smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.

"Okay, then go check on this person for me first. His name is Lin Tianyu, and he's an old acquaintance of mine. Go find out what he's been doing recently and what his movements are. If you find anything unusual, report it to me immediately."

"Yes, sir!" Dick stood at attention and saluted, then rushed out in a flash and soon disappeared.

Watching him go away, Bai Ming pinched his chin thoughtfully.

"Lin Tianyu...that bastard who betrayed me, never think of harming me again in this life!"

Hatred surged in Bai Ming's eyes and turned into a resolute sneer.

Hajime noticed the change in his master's mood and couldn't help but gently rub his cheek, as if to comfort him.

Bai Ming came back to his senses, quickly picked up Ah Yi, and coaxed him softly, "Be good, Daddy is fine. Let's go and talk to Uncle Liu and the others."

After saying that, Bai Ming walked towards Liu Wenli and others.

Huo Shan saw Bai Ming coming over and hurriedly went to meet him. He asked respectfully, "Tan Lang, how was the talk with the Soul King just now? Is he willing to submit?"

Bai Ming smiled and waved his hand, saying, "It is quite tactful and immediately expressed its willingness to submit to me. But I always feel that things are not that simple, so we should be careful."

Liu Wenli nodded and said in a deep voice: "This Soul King is full of tricks. It is not normal for him to be so honest all of a sudden. You are right, we must be vigilant."

"But with Tan Lang here, we don't have to worry too much." Meng Li said gently, "As long as we work together, we will be able to cope with all challenges."
