Lao Tzu is Ji Gong

Ouyang Lan: Kill me or torture me, it's up to you. Just do it quickly, why bother... She wanted to say something more, but Long Xiangtian silenced her by striking her acupoint from a distance.

His constant nagging is so annoying. Take it back to me now.

Chapter 867 A Strange Relationship.

"Yes." And so, Ouyang Lan was taken to the bedroom of the seemingly beastly young master of the Long family...

With her hands and feet restrained, Ouyang Lan struggled desperately, trying to break free.

She cursed inwardly, "You damned bastard, Long Xiangtian, if you ever fall into my hands, I'll torture you until you're beyond redemption. I'll make sure you're childless!"

It was as if he were a tapeworm in Ouyang Lan's heart.

"You want me to be childless? Are you really that cruel, my dear Miss Ouyang?" Long Xiangtian said, seemingly with a hint of sarcasm.

Even so, this made Ouyang Lan's heart surge with excitement. She hadn't shown herself at all, so how did this guy know? Moreover, it seemed he could even read her mind.

Thinking of this, a sudden cold sweat broke out on Ouyang Lan's cheeks.

"you,"

Are you wondering why I seem to know everything?

"Mmm," Ouyang Lan blushed shyly, as if her secrets had been read.

"Actually, actually, we're kind of on the same wavelength." Long Xiangtian's words made Ouyang Lan believe him.

However, he quickly regained his composure.

"You're lying, you're lying." Ouyang Lan shook her head like a rattle drum.

"Okay, okay, I lied." This guy doesn't seem like a sworn enemy at all anymore.

However, as the saying goes, enemies are destined to meet, and the two might even develop something in the future; who knows?

Long Xiangtian, who had taken the opportunity to eat Ouyang Lan's tofu, was quickly repelled by the Lion's Roar.

Reluctantly, she released her hands from Ouyang Lan's shoulders, and then smelled the lingering fragrance on her hands.

"The taste is not bad."

"Pervert, beast, hooligan, get out of here."

If it weren't for Long Xiangtian's order that no one was allowed to enter his residence tonight, the guard would have come to see what was going on after hearing such a commotion.

Guard 1: "I didn't expect our young master to have such refined tastes."

Guard Two: "What do you think? I heard that the assassin was a woman."

Guard 1: "Are you talking nonsense? If it's not a woman, does our young master have an interest in men?"

Guard Three: "That's not necessarily true..."

This quickly became a topic of discussion among the guards on duty to pass the time when they were bored.

However, in this gentle house, with the young master of the Long family and the young lady of the Ouyang family alone together, it would be abnormal not to let people have all sorts of wild thoughts.

If you touch a beautiful woman, you're a beast. But if you can remain unmoved, you're even worse than a beast.

"Alright, enough fooling around. I didn't invite you here to flirt with you." Long Xiangtian said seriously, his previous frivolous manner completely gone.

Hearing such a deep and powerful voice, Ouyang Lan couldn't help but feel her girlish heart skip a beat.

No, how could I do this? He's Long Xiangtian, the man I've dreamed of killing. How could I possibly do this...?

Having noticed something amiss, Long Xiangtian didn't force Ouyang Lan any further and slowly removed his blindfold and veil.

Originally, Ouyang Lan, who had been trying to struggle, realized that the other party had no intention of offending her at all. Instead, he treated her like a gentleman and took off his hat.

They stopped causing trouble.

As Ouyang Lan slowly opened her eyes, she saw a handsome man enter her field of vision.

I've never observed Long Xiangtian this closely before. He can be so handsome! I've heard rumors, but this is the first time I've seen him like this. What's wrong with me?

It wasn't just Ouyang Lan who felt this way. Seeing the charming and shy Ouyang Lan looking at him so intimately, Long Xiangtian's hormones surged uncontrollably.

A desire to pounce on her arose spontaneously.

What's wrong with us? Both of them asked themselves at the same time, wondering what was going on.

It's like two stones colliding and sparking, or two magnets attracting each other, unable to look away from each other.

你,

你,

After a long while, they all...

Faced with the awkward situation, Long Xiangtian, as a man, naturally took the initiative to defuse the atmosphere, saying, "Miss Ouyang, do you often feel your fourth rib on the left side thumping inwards an inch?"

Hearing this guy, whom she remembered as a rogue, call her "girl," Ouyang Lan was taken aback. Unconsciously, she slowly raised her right hand and began to search for the location as Long Xiangtian had instructed.

Ouyang Lan's face tightened in shock. She thought this guy was teasing her again and even wanted to slap him to teach him a lesson.

But Long Xiangtian shouted first, "I'm not referring to your... you know, I'm talking about your heart."

Realizing her mistake, Ouyang Lan blushed even more, feeling embarrassed as she understood what the other person meant.

Seeing this woman in front of him, who was always shy and would hit him at the drop of a hat, Long Xiangtian didn't know how he felt about her. It was a feeling he had never had in the past twenty years.

Yes, the two people born in the Ouyang and Long families, a young master and a young lady, were coincidentally born on the same day, month, year, hour, and minute, even down to the second. This was because it was preordained that they were one yin and one yang, complementing and balancing each other.

However, Long Xiangtian knew something about this relationship because he often thought of things that weren't his own, while Ouyang Lan remained confused.

However, if Long Xiangtian were to explain it in detail, it's hard to say exactly what it is!

What happened in the Long family was known not only to the two families.

High in the sky, two pairs of eyes are watching everything that is happening here.

"Second Brother, you just said you were going to sleep, why did you drag me here?" asked Sha Wujing, a Buddhist monk.

“You really are a fool. The Long family and the Ouyang family are no ordinary family; there must be something we don’t know about them.” Pigsy then muttered, “I heard that a Buddha has passed away, could it be…”

Such a heavenly secret was beyond the comprehension of even a great immortal like Zhu Bajie.

Chapter 868 The Underworld - Hell.

On the other side, the place where black mist rises in the southeast is where hell is located.

The word "hell" immediately evokes images of terror and cruelty.

Because it is the darkest part of the underworld, it can be divided into eighteen layers. From top to bottom, each layer is even more cruel.

The eighteen levels of hell can be divided into the following three levels: the first level is the Hell of Tongue-Pulling, the second level is the Hell of Scissors, and the third level is the Hell of Iron Trees.

Below that are the three middle levels: the fourth level is the Mirror of Retribution Hell, the fifth level is the Steaming Cage Hell, and the sixth level is the Copper Pillar Hell.

The next four levels can be divided into: the seventh level, the Ice Mountain Hell; the eighth level, the Oil Cauldron Hell; the ninth level, the Cattle Pit Hell; and the tenth level, the Stone Press Hell.

The first ten levels are already considered extremely lucky for those being punished; being able to survive to the tenth level is already a great stroke of luck.

However, the darkest of these ten levels are not the first ten. Compared to the ten levels above, the deepest eight levels are where there is no way to resist: Spring Mortar Hell, Blood Pool Hell, Unjust Death Hell, Torture Hell, Volcano Hell, Stone Mill Hell, and Saw Hell.

Each level represents its own punishment; for example, the first level, the Hell of Tongue Removal:

Those who, while alive, sow discord, slander and harm others, are glib-tongued, use clever words to argue, and lie and deceive, will be cast into the Tongue-Pulling Hell after death. Demons will pry open their mouths, clamp their tongues with iron pincers, and pull them out—not all at once, but slowly, elongated… Afterwards, they will enter the Scissors Hell and the Iron Tree Hell.

and many more,

However, compared to the first level of hell, the levels that follow are even more indescribable, best explained by their names.

However, the most profound aspect is that the eighteen hells are arranged according to the length of time of suffering and the severity of the crime. If we consider the shortest time of suffering in hell, one day in hell is equivalent to 3,750 years in the human world, 30 days is one month, 12 months is one year, and after 10,000 years, which is 135 million years in the human world, one will die and be released from hell. Each hell is twenty times more painful and has twice the lifespan than the one before it. By the time one reaches the eighteenth hell, the suffering is indescribable, and the date of release is impossible to calculate.

The first ten levels are managed by King Qin Guang, King Chu Jiang, King Song Di, King Wu Guan, King Yan Luo, King Bian Hua, King Tai Shan, King Ping Deng, King Du Shi, and King Wu Dao Zhuan Lun.

From the very first level, one possesses the strength of a fully-fledged Golden Immortal. The tenth and subsequent levels are filled with Great Luo Golden Immortals, though the exact number varies.

Even more terrifying is that their supreme leader is also Yama, the King of Hell.

According to the time this world was created, the tenth level of hell was so harsh that it was left unattended and became the most heinous and wicked place.

Right here, thick black mist billowed into the sky, breaking through every layer of hell above from the lowest level of the hell of knives and saws, reaching straight to the heavens.

In each layer where this black mist resides, the surrounding thousands of miles have become devoid of any living beings. Even these heinous criminals keep their distance, only able to observe from afar and not to be trifled with.

Even Yama, the King of Hell, wouldn't want to touch it now.

Actually, this was all because of that foolish guy who saw the black mist spreading around him one day. Out of curiosity and a desire to show off, he became a demon with the strength of a mid-stage Great Luo Golden Immortal.

He yelled at the other evil spirits, "What's the big deal? Look how scared you all are!"

As he spoke, he reached out to touch it. But the instant he reached out, without the slightest surprise, his primordial spirit was annihilated, vanishing without a trace, leaving not even ashes behind.

This is why, now, no one within a thousand miles is willing to approach and want to find out what's going on.

Because even the evil spirits on the tenth floor witnessed this, the news spread as quickly as the black mist, and in an instant, almost the entire hell was in an uproar.

As for beings even more powerful than this Great Luo Golden Immortal evil spirit, and these Yama Kings who each govern hell, all they can do now is wait and see.

They didn't want to be destroyed without their knowledge or understanding.

Yama reported this matter to Yama King almost immediately, but received no response. As a powerful Grand Immortal, Yama King's attitude towards this matter was unclear.

At this moment, at the entrance to hell, a beam of blue light arrived first—it was the Antarctic Longevity Emperor, sent by the Jade Emperor.

Sensing the domineering aura lingering within, the Antarctic Longevity Emperor did not easily approach it.
