The ancient martial arts master traveled through time

Chapter 61: 9 The Palace is in Danger

But no, the ghost didn't react at all.

The old ghost saw a ghost blocking his way and looked up at him. Seeing that it was a young and handsome man, he was surprised and asked, "What's the matter?"

Di Jingchen took a deep breath and said, "Excuse me, how do I get to Naihe Bridge?"

The old ghost had never thought that there were such foolish ghosts in the underworld who didn't even know the way to the Naihe Bridge. But he didn't hide it. He pointed ahead and said, "Just keep going that way. When you pass Fengdu City, you will find the Naihe Bridge."

Fengdu City is where new ghosts live. No matter how many good or evil deeds you have done in the human world, you will be judged accordingly there. Until you have repaid your sins and favors, the higher-ups will agree to let you reincarnate. Only then can you go to Naihe Bridge, drink Mengpo soup, forget your past, and start a new life.

Now that it has been confirmed, he is somewhat unable to accept it, but the fact is that as long as Ruan Xiaojiu is with him, he will not be chased by ghosts. To put it bluntly, Ruan Xiaojiu can cover up the yang energy in him.

Ruan Xiaojiu didn't know why Di Jingchen suddenly hugged her, but she enjoyed it.

The two of them found out the direction of Naihe Bridge and continued forward. Ruan Xiaojiu lay on Di Jingchen's back, feeling so comfortable.

Along the way, they met many ghosts with different appearances, some with hideous faces, and some crying sadly.

Di Jingchen couldn't help but think of his life, feeling filled with emotion.

Finally, they arrived at Naihe Bridge. A long line formed beside it, and at the end stood a woman named Meng Po. She handed each ghost a bowl of Meng Po soup and said, "Drink this soup, and all your past will be forgotten. Forget your past and be reborn!"

Di Jingchen was watching intently, and Ruan Xiaojiu reminded him that this thing cannot be drunk carelessly, otherwise he will really forget everything.

It was Di Jingchen and Ruan Xiaojiu's turn. They took the soup bowls. Di Jingchen wanted to drink it in one gulp. There was nothing he couldn't forget. His memory was full of bad memories. It would be easier if he forgot them.

Ruan Xiaojiu pressed the rim of the bowl to stop him, saying, "You still want to help me get the Hell Flower, how could you forget me? I won't drink it, and neither can you."

Meng Po's emotionless voice rang out, "If you don't want to drink, give your seat to someone else. Don't delay their reincarnation."

Ruan Xiaojiu looked up at Meng Po and asked, "Can you see me?"

Meng Po smiled lightly but did not respond.

At this moment, a breeze blew by, knocking the soup bowls out of Di Jingchen and Ruan Xiaojiu's hands. Meng Po, who usually had no expression on her face, was surprised for a moment and said, "Since you don't want to drink, go away."

The two of them successfully passed the Naihe Bridge. There were two passages on this side of the bridge, one for reincarnated humans and the other for animals. There were ghost officials guarding each side, who would decide where to let the ghosts go based on the distribution displayed after they drank Mengpo soup.

Di Jingchen was still thinking about the soup bowl that had just fallen to the ground for no reason, and he held Ruan Xiaojiu in silence all the way.

Their next stop is the Forgetful River, which is not far from the Naihe Bridge. It can be said that the Forgetful River is below the Naihe Bridge, but the Forgetful River there is downstream and does not lead to the Hell Valley.

The journey was smooth, there were no disturbing ghosts and no strange things happening.

They came to the middle section of the Forgotten River. Only by passing through here could they reach the Hell Valley on the opposite side.

Di Jingchen carried Ruan Xiaojiu all the way. Now the Wangchuan River was right in front of them, and there was no trace of ghosts around. He put Ruan Xiaojiu down and looked at the Wangchuan River in front of him with a dark look in his eyes.

Ruan Xiaojiu was also looking at the turbulent Forgetful River. Suddenly, a memory emerged in his mind. The Forgetful River would make those who passed through it remember their past, and would also make those who passed through it forget their present life. It would not return to normal until the soul left the ghost world.

Ruan Xiaojiu's memory flashed through her mind, but she didn't pay much attention to it. She looked at Di Jingchen and said, "How are we going to get there? Across the street is where the hellflowers grow."

Hearing Ruan Xiaojiu's question, he came back to his senses and said, "Let's walk along the river first and see if there is any way to cross."

"Well, that's all it can do."

The two walked along the river, looking out into the distance from time to time, and heard faint cries from the river. Suddenly, Ruan Xiaojiu saw a small boat floating on the river. Ruan Xiaojiu was delighted and pulled Di Jingchen to point it out to him.

The small boat had no one rowing it, but it was floating towards the two of them against the headwind. In a moment, it was almost there. When the two of them were about to get on the boat to cross the river, Di Jingchen suddenly felt a strong aura approaching. He became alert in an instant and looked around, but found nothing unusual.

……

At the same time, the Ninth Prince's Palace was in the midst of a terrible disaster, and the Witch Clan Saint came to the Ninth Prince's Palace with a dozen Witch Clan envoys.

His four messengers sent him a message saying that they were all captured alive by the Ninth Prince here. The saint was so angry that he almost lost his nose when he received the letter for help.

It was understandable that he couldn't defeat Di Jingchen in the Wu Clan, but it was also incredible that his people outside the Wu Clan could be controlled and subdued by the prince of a small country.

He wanted to see what was so special about the prince of the Ninth Prince's Palace that he killed one of his four envoys and imprisoned three.

The Saints suddenly attacked the Ninth Prince's Palace. With endless murderous intent and immense power, they launched a brutal massacre. The entire Ninth Prince's Palace was shrouded in blood, and the bodies of the deceased guards were scattered everywhere.

The guards guarding the Ninth Prince's Palace, knowing that they could not resist, still vowed to defend everyone in the Ninth Prince's Palace to the death, but their resistance was insignificant.

At this time, Xiao Cui came to the front yard and shouted: "Everyone in the Ninth Prince's Mansion, listen up! Everyone, retreat! Evacuate the Ninth Prince's Mansion! Saving your lives is the most important thing."

After shouting, she left first. No one noticed that Xiao Cui quietly went to her prince's room. Xiao Cui knew better than anyone that if you ask where the safest place is, it is of course next to her prince.

When the guards in the courtyard heard the butler's call, they didn't care why and just listened. They made a feint and took the opportunity to escape.

The young masters of the West Courtyard also knew what had happened in the front courtyard. Upon learning the order from Housekeeper Xiao Cui, they sighed in dismay. Wu Zhenkai couldn't help but scoff, "Look, even her trusted Housekeeper Cui fled when disaster struck. How could she be so popular? Who would be loyal to her?"

Han Yuchen said worriedly, "What should we do? The Ninth Prince hasn't shown up yet. Maybe he's already escaped. Is it too late for us to leave through the front door now? I'm not going to die here today."

"I heard that a handsome man came the day before yesterday, and the two of them haven't come out since they entered Ruan Xiaojiu's room." Yun Yizhuo continued.

"The princess is also in the palace. I don't believe that Ruan Xiaojiu doesn't even care about the princess's life or death," Xiao Zeming said with a sneer.

"Oh no, oh no!" At this moment, Feng Liushang's personal assistant, Xiao Si Xiaolinzi, came running back in a panic. He had just been ordered to go to the front yard to inquire about the situation, but what he saw was the Wu Clan unilaterally slaughtering the Nine Princes' Mansion. Frightened, he hurried back to report the news.

When they heard Xiao Linzi's report, they all looked panicked and frightened.

"Where is the princess? Where is Guan Qian'an? Where did they go?" Han Yuchen asked anxiously.
