Chapter 575 Endure, and Endure Again

The Black and White Impermanence, being righteous gods of the underworld, were now being openly mocked for their unfair actions, disregarding the iron laws of the underworld. The anger in their hearts was imaginable.

However, they were unable to lash out because, up until now, all the "reasoning" was on the other side.

With the Black and White Impermanence's wisdom and experience, how could they not see that this was a dead end?

Even if they hadn't seen through the key to it all at the beginning, they should have realized it by now.

They knew this was a conspiracy against them, but they still came. Not to protect themselves, but to protect me and Ye Yang.

White Impermanence suppressed his anger and said, "Old Eight! You personally lead the troops and level that tomb. I'll take Li Po and Ye Yang back for a trip."

A red-robed ghost official stepped forward, "The two Divine Lords are taking people back; I'm afraid that's not in accordance with the rules, is it?"

"Don't forget, the two Divine Lords are Li Po and Ye Yang's teachers. Wouldn't it be necessary to avoid suspicion by having the two of you bring them back to the underworld?"

White Impermanence said coldly, "My brother and I have always been upright and honest; there is no such thing as 'avoiding suspicion.'"

The red-robed ghost official smiled, "Since the two Divine Lords are so upright and unyielding, you shouldn't have appeared here today."

The red-robed ghost official's expression suddenly darkened, "Men, take Ye Yang away. If the two Divine Lords want to kill someone, no one should resist. Let the two Divine Lords do as they please. Of course, I'm also waiting for the two Divine Lords to kill me."

When White Impermanence took a step forward, I knew the time was right. If I waited any longer, the Grandmaster might really take action.

I pulled the Soul-chasing Rope with my left hand, used telekinesis with my right to grab the ancient book suppressing the ghost official, and rushed out of the tomb passage. I circulated my inner strength and laughed loudly, "The Grandmaster should indeed kill you, but not here, but on the Soul-severing Platform of the underworld."

When the red-robed ghost official saw me appear with Qiao Gongliang, his expression changed drastically, "Li Po is controlled by evil! Kill him!"

The underworld officers behind the red-robed ghost official didn't move. White Impermanence waved his hand from more than ten meters away, and a slap in the face sent the red-robed ghost official flying.

Before the red-robed ghost official could get up, White Impermanence had already appeared in front of him, grabbed his collar, and slapped him repeatedly. Although ghosts wouldn't get black eyes and swollen faces, the humiliation of being slapped in public made him wish he could die. He covered his face with his sleeves, not daring to see anyone.

White Impermanence threw him to the ground and stepped on him, "Li Po, what's going on here?"

I quickly brought Qiao Gongliang in front of White Impermanence and, with a flick of my hand, released the red-robed ghost official who had been suppressed in the pages of the book, "This person will tell the Grandmaster what really happened here."

White Impermanence laughed loudly, "Well done! Men, keep a close eye on them for me, take them back to see King Yama. I want to file a formal complaint."

Immediately, swarms of underworld soldiers arrived, surrounding the two red-robed ghost officials. Before the underworld soldiers could take the people away, a civil official wearing a first-rank official robe appeared in the void, "Two Divine Lords, if you want to arrest underworld officials, wouldn't it be inappropriate not to notify us?"

White Impermanence said coldly, "This Lord thinks it's very appropriate."

Before the other party could speak, White Impermanence pointed his finger at the man's nose, "Song Ning, you'd better not try to reason with me. We'll talk reason in the Yama Palace. I'll let you speak your mind in front of King Yama and the Judge."

"If you try to reason with me now, if I don't slap you until your face blossoms, I'll give you my position as Great Marshal of the Underworld."

Song Ning's face was ashen, but he couldn't say a word. He knew that White Impermanence was definitely not exaggerating.

Although there were many in the civil official faction, they couldn't compare to the ten Yin Marshals who had existed since the founding of the underworld in terms of qualifications. Moreover, White and Black Impermanence had hundreds of millions of underworld soldiers under their command. If they really wanted to take action and snatch people, the ones who would suffer would only be them.

Song Ning cupped his fist and said, "Then this official will await the arrival of the two Divine Lords in the Yama Palace."

Song Ning led the ghost officers away with a flick of their sleeves. White Impermanence then said, "I'll say you did well, kid. Don't go anywhere these next few days. Wait for my brother and me."

Just as White Impermanence was taking Qiao Gongliang's ghost, I said, "Wait a moment. Ruo Xing, bring Bai Hongzhen's Earth Soul and give it to the Grandmaster."

White Impermanence took the Soul-confining Pouch, looking puzzled, "Bai Hongzhen's Earth Soul is still here? Why didn't you hand it over earlier? I thought you had scattered it."

I rubbed my hands together and said, "Here's the thing."

"I inquired about the reason why Bai Hanfei, the Grandmaster of the Bai family, became a Yang Jian Jie Ming Ren. He was borrowing life for his daughter. Last time, I didn't take out Bai Hongzhen's Earth Soul because I wanted to save some lifespan and give it to Grandmaster Bai's daughter."

"These kinds of things, you always have to save up more to give to people at once. We can't always trouble the Grandmaster to run back and forth, right? Adding Bai Hongzhen and Qiao Gongliang's merits together, it should be quite a bit of lifespan, right?"

White Impermanence looked at me for a long time, "Did Bai Hanfei ask you for it?"

"No!" I shook my head and said, "Consider it a little something from us! Just consider it settling Grandmaster Bai's affairs after his death."

White Impermanence nodded and said, "Alright, this Lord is in a good mood today and will make a trip for you. I'll leave you each with two years of lifespan."

After White Impermanence finished speaking, he led Qiao Gongliang towards the underworld.
