Slayer of Gods: I lied; I became the agent of the Nine Gods.

Zuo Qing's eyes widened, and he immediately pulled out the knife in his hand and threw it at the blade that Lu Yu was slashing down.

The girl pursed her lips. She herself wouldn't be pricked, but Baili Xin in front of her had used all her strength to activate [Elegy] and was already powerless to resist.

However, because his hand movements were a little slow, the thrown knife stopped in front of Lu Yu, unable to advance an inch.

Lin Qiye stood directly in front of Lu Yu, with his other teammates standing beside him, none of whom were willing to back down at this moment.

"Lin Qiye!!! You're trying to rebel!!"

Zuo Qing's shouts overlapped with the sound of a long sword piercing flesh—

There was only a large splatter of blood, followed by Baili Xin's head falling to the ground in disbelief, covered in mud and grime, showing no trace of its former glory.

"Lin Qiye, look what you're doing!"

Zuo Qing hurriedly stepped forward, watching helplessly as the head fell to the ground.

He could only look at Lin Qiye, the team leader. The boy showed no fear in his eyes and even deeply agreed with Lu Yu's actions.

Lin Qiye turned slightly to the side, glanced at the blood on the ground, and then gave Zuo Qing an apologetic smile:

"Sorry, Director Zuo Qing, it was windy just now, I didn't hear you clearly."

Zuo Qing: "..."

The Night Watchmen behind him: "..."

Although I was very angry, I don't know why I also felt a strange sense of satisfaction.

But hey, are you blind or are we?

凸(艹皿艹)草！！！

Lin Qiye raised an eyebrow but didn't say anything more.

Lu Yu then picked up his knife and walked to Baili Tuming's side, seemingly oblivious to the large group of people standing in front of him. He patted Baili's chubby shoulder:

"Fatty, Baili Xin forcibly entangled you in this karma, but now you don't need to worry about not being able to sever it. I'll help you bear the consequences of this scum's killing karma..."

What's there to be afraid of?

Lu Yu had a well-thought-out plan in mind.

Anyway, the Demon Ancestor is now inside me. At worst, if there's any karmic retribution, I'll just blame it all on the Demon Ancestor.

Anyway, most of the bad things in the prehistoric world belong to the Demon Ancestor's family, so he certainly doesn't mind taking the blame for more things!

The murderer was Rahu, what does it have to do with me, Lu Bu? [Funny (*?▽?*)]

With that thought, the girl became incredibly bold and blurted out, "But Baili Xin has a karmic connection with you, while Baili Jing is just a freeloader who has nothing!"

Lu shifted her feet slightly, trying to shield herself from Zuo Qing's murderous glare.

"So hurry up and take care of the other bastard too!"

.........

Baili Xin and Baili Tuming are indeed unrelated, yet they are undeniably connected by the cause and effect of this adoption. If it were Baili Tuming, perhaps he wouldn't care.

However, as the Celestial Venerable Lingbao, Baili Pangpang naturally prefers to avoid getting involved with things like karma.

Baili Pangpang knew exactly what Lu Yu was thinking. He wasn't that soft-hearted; he just hadn't had a chance to act yet.

Baili Xin didn't need to lift a finger, but Baili Jing...

Baili Pangpang looked at Baili Jing, who was bound by a golden chain on the ground, silently picked up his knife, and took a few steps forward.

Seeing this, Zuo Qing frowned, not even having time to argue with Lu Yu about her dangerous remarks, and was just about to stop Baili Pangpang's actions—

A gust of wind suddenly swept across the open space.

It was bitterly cold, and a strange, mysterious power spread to everyone's limbs.

Zuo Qing gripped the knife in his hand tightly, glanced around, but didn't notice anything unusual.

His subordinates behind him also gripped their weapons, watching for any movement around them.

But the members of the fifth squad's reserve team, who had been watching them warily, seemed to see something familiar at that moment, and immediately breathed a sigh of relief and relaxed.

Just as Zuo Qing was wondering what kind of trouble these kids were up to this time, he heard—

"Ding—ding…ding-dong—"

A bell rang in their ears.

Immediately afterwards, in the darkness before them, the scene appeared like a frame-by-frame movie, breaking and then clearing up again, only to reveal a completely different picture.

In a thin white mist, the ancient bronze gate swung open, flanked by ghostly attendants whose robes trailed to the ground, scattering red flowers and releasing their delicate fragrance.

A bull-headed man and a horse-faced man stood on either side of the door, with the Black and White Impermanence clearing the way.

A young man dressed in dark blue sat on the back of a black behemoth, stepped out of the Gate of Hell, and smiled with his eyes slightly narrowed as he looked at the people present, as if watching children playing.

That look made Zuo Qing think—

This is how God should love the world.

The moment the Bodhisattva clasped his hands, it seemed as if Buddhist chants were softly reciting, causing Zuo Qing to forget all the actions he was about to take.

"Deer at ~~~"

All the sacredness was shattered by that sweet, childlike voice that pierced through the eardrums.

A black and white shadow darted out from behind the black behemoth and rushed straight into Lu Yu's arms—

I miss you so much~

The little cub rubbed its tiny horn against the girl's wrist.

"I'm stuck in the underworld all day doing homework because of that stinky Buddha! I miss you so much! Have you missed me too?!"

"Will it? It definitely will, right? Right, right?"

Little Diting twitched its nose and kept trying to burrow into the deer's pocket, but the next second, it was caught by the scruff of its neck.

Lu Yu yanked him off her, squinting at him: "Miss me? You're probably just thinking about the snacks I have here, aren't you?"

Little Listener's Eyes Shift: Hehe~

The group of ghosts and gods behind him silently covered their faces:

My Lord Di Ting...

You should take a look at the eyes of Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva! He's definitely thinking about the extra training you'll get when you go back this time!

All the high-class image we painstakingly created has been ruined in less than a second by you!!!

Lu Yu caught Little Di Ting and handed it to the deity before him:

"Why has Lord Ksitigarbha come to the mortal realm today? Is there something important that you have to discuss?"

Ksitigarbha?

Zuo Qing loosened his grip on the knife slightly. He had learned some inside information about Fengdu from Ye Fan in the past few days, so he naturally knew what this reserve team had done in Anta County.

But he never expected to see a deity of the Great Xia Dynasty so soon, especially a bodhisattva from the underworld.

Ksitigarbha took the little Di Ting, and the giant beast beneath him chuckled softly, seemingly mocking the little divine beast's foolish appearance.

"...I heard from the fortune teller in the underworld about this young man. It just so happened that the Black and White Impermanence were coming to deliver the souls of the dead here. Since Di Ting and I had nothing to do, we came along."

Let's give Little Di Ting some fresh air while we're at it; keeping the child locked up for too long might cause him to cause chaos in the underworld.

Lu Yu raised an eyebrow, but Lin Qiye behind her suddenly realized.

So, Xu Fu was walking so fast because he went to call for help for them?

That's so thoughtful!

Upon hearing this, Zuo Qing understood that the act of "liberating the souls of the dead" naturally referred to the people present...

Looking at the approachable-looking ghost in front of him, he suddenly became unsure whether he could spare the life of that Baili family member. He probably wouldn't be able to get him locked up in the fasting sanctuary.

Baili Xin was fine; he was already dead, so he could just turn a blind eye and let it go. But Baili Jing…

He couldn't possibly compete with the God of the Underworld for someone, could he...?

This can't be done, right?

Sure enough, the Bodhisattva uttered the coldest words in the gentlest of phrases:

"I naturally don't concern myself with the affairs of the living..."

The Bodhisattva chuckled softly, looking at Baili Jing on the ground with tears in his eyes, still so serene.

"But if he dies, then I can do something about it..."

Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva's gaze fell upon Baili Xin's headless corpse, but he frowned slightly, thinking that after a person dies, their soul will not return to the underworld for seven days...

"Black and White Impermanence, draw out Baili Xin's soul."

He sighed, thinking about how these two had gotten themselves into trouble with no one better than trying to kill the reincarnation of the Celestial Venerable Lingbao…

Those further away...

Why do we have to pick the hardest bone to gnaw on?

Who in both the realms of gods and ghosts doesn't know Lu Yu's true identity now?

Furthermore, she also had done a great favor for the underworld...

To exaggerate a bit—

Even if Lu Yu wanted to use the Book of Life and Death as a menu and order whoever she wanted to kill, some gods who were particularly fond of her would probably personally go and see what had happened to that person who had offended the girl.

After all, Lu Yu never kills innocent people.

If you've provoked a young girl to the point of wanting to kill someone herself, then there's definitely something wrong with you!

What bad intentions could a little deer have? She's still so young!

Yes, that's how unreasonable it is.
