Chapter 505: Hungry Ghost Festival (2)

He didn’t move quickly, yet his heart thumped wildly with every step he took.

Why do things here look completely different from what I had in mind?

Hang on… But if that were indeed the case, then why did you have me personally visit the King Yanluo of Hell? You clearly knew that I was slowly establishing myself in the three eastern provinces, so why didn’t you do a thing about it?

That said, such level of development is by no means a paltry fledgling civilization that’s still languishing in the stone ages! No! This is already comparable to the Song Dynasty… and quite possibly even beyond that!

Despite the fact that he was only being escorted by measly Yin soldiers, the daolord still clasped his hands together as a sign of great respect. Meanwhile, Qin Ye closely observed every move he made.

“Of course.” Qin Ye squinted, “A Yin spirit’s personality is highly dependent on his inclinations in life. Qin Hui was a scheming man in life, and it’s clear that he would always have his own interests before others. Sure, he’s like a fish in water when it comes to manipulating weak and gullible kings, but that’s the situation back in the mortal realm at his time.”

“Tell the escorts to take their time. Meanwhile, send word to Lord Harken to have him be ready to appear at the moment’s notice.”

……………………………………………

The Harken lowered his head lazily before abruptly opening his eyes again, “Do you think Yanluo Qin would actually conscript him?”

Arthis froze, and then her entire body trembled.

At once, she lay prostrate on the ground and worshipped wholeheartedly, “Greetings, Second King Yanluo of Hell! Long live the Second King Yanluo of Hell!!”

His explanation gave Arthis some food for thought. So that’s how it is… From what he’s saying, it would seem that the Second King Yanluo of Hell would only have wreaked havoc in the top four underworld in the netherworld. It does make sense. Given his pride, he would never stoop so low to visit the other lesser underworlds. Who knows, perhaps he might not even have visited the nameless god of death in Rus.

Of course not!

The Second King Yanluo of Hell continued, “Once Nippon has been flattened, Hell would once again receive the soul of Yue Wumu with open arms. Do you expect Yue Fei to get along with the daolord of the asura? If you had to choose, would you rather have Yue Fei, or Qin Hui?”

“Qin Hui was the one who killed Yue Fei back then. In fact, you can even say that he single handedly caused the downfall of an entire dynasty. The thousands years he’s spent in the depths of the path of the asura would only have amounted to propitiation of his sin of causing the downfall of the Song Dynasty. There’s still the heinous crime of plotting and killing the hero Yue Fei. Let’s see what my successor decides in this regard.”

“I’m the one who wrote his name.” The Second King Yanluo of Hell responded unapologetically, “If he’s displeased with the outcome, he can take it up with me personally.”

Just then, Arthis gasped once more, because it just dawned on her that Fate was nowhere to be seen this time. “Then…”

“And it seems like Qin Hui is the first pawn to make its move on this grand stage called destiny.”

The daolord of the asura followed his escorts and approached the city gate. But before entering the city, he was invited to head up the stairs on the side onto the top of the city walls. The path was complex and winding, and his gaze slowly grew more and more apprehensive.

Qin Hui wasn’t too well-informed.

The defense of this armor is so strong that only Hellguards are able to breach it… and yet all of the Yin soldiers I’ve seen thus far have been equipped with it! The new government of Hell is only supposed to be at its infancy right now! How do they possess the wealth and depth of resources to manufacture these sets of armor with such abundance?!

He was confused.

His first impression of the new Hell was that it was only forcibly putting on a facade of strength, and yet… it was only when he made a trip to the new Hell that it dawned upon him how his own Yin soldiers could hardly hold a candle to the mighty forces of Hell!

And if they’re armed with military formations… there’s simply no way I’d be able to contend with the forces of Hell…

To that end, thanks to Oda Nobunaga’s personal training regime, the experiences gleaned from the Yang Clan forces, as well as the battle of Qufu, the Yin soldiers located in Ashmound were clearly to be considered elites in their own right.

I’m afraid there’s no way I’d be able to take Ashmound City as it stands right now - not even if I mustered every single Yin soldier I have stationed across all three eastern provinces.

“Sir.” Just then, the Yin soldier leading the way turned back and cupped his hands respectfully, “The meeting point is just ahead. Please.”

With that, the Yin soldier cupped his hands respectfully and left calmly.

Why does everything here appear to be running like clockwork, and with such immaculacy?!

The strength of my army is by no means a match for these Yin soldiers! No… quite apart from the Yin soldiers, just the Harken itself is more than sufficient to completely level my forces!

I’ve been had...

Yanluo Qin… His acting skills are top-notch. He must have done everything to lead me on. I’ve been dancing in the palm of his hands all this while!

The Harken…

An expression of bitter astringency crept onto his lips, and he hung his head low as he walked stiffly up to the city tower.

With intelligence came the prospect of overthinking matters. Conversely, a simpleton might well have come to a completely different conclusion.

And then, he glanced to the right.

It was a mess. His plans and his mind were all in a mess.

He promptly marched over. Meanwhile, Qin Ye had also noticed the approach of the daolord of the asura. As the daolord closed the gap, so did Qin Ye secretly tighten his grip around the spear tip that was tied to his forearm and concealed under his sleeves.

What have I done? I’d best brace myself for what is to come…

Indeed, Qin Ye did have the intention of giving Qin Hui a rude shock in order to soften him up for submission. But he never expected things to go as smoothly as this.

I mean… what in the world is going on in his mind?!!
