Chapter 690 The tree hasn't fallen yet, but the monkeys have already scattered.
"Why did so many new lives suddenly emerge in the Yellow Springs? And who is the connection between that celestial phenomenon that lasted for ten years?"
In a palace somewhere where Izanami, the ruler of the underworld, resides, the demon generals and assassins of the underworld are gathered together, discussing the current world upheavals.
Izanami has been out of the picture for a long time, and her subordinates, leaderless, are filled with deep anxiety and unease.
"It should be related to that human couple. I once heard the Overlord say that the man will obtain the other half of the power of the Underworld... Perhaps his final achievements will not be inferior to hers..." The Ugly Woman of the Underworld boldly spoke out what she knew.
Most of the ghost generals and assassins were startled to hear that the ugly woman from the underworld dared to talk about the ruler behind his back.
However, considering that Izanami had already withdrawn from worldly affairs, they felt that this little matter didn't matter...
"Ah... those new lives are related to that human couple? My subordinates have even eaten those immortal monsters..." a demon general exclaimed in panic.
“Those newborn creatures shouldn’t be eaten, right? It’s said that eating them can cause intestinal perforation or even sudden death…” another ghost general said in surprise, clearly having heard about such things.
"Yes, they really can't eat them. Those newborns all have lotus seed marks on their bodies. Eating lotus seeds will create a huge karmic debt. The more powerful the being, the less one should be greedy and eat them..."
These ghosts, at least at the Great God Realm level, all began to discuss among themselves.
"Does the Overlord really not intend to step in and take charge? If that human is allowed to grow up, I fear the Yellow Springs Realm will change hands..." A god-king level ghost general said worriedly, looking at the ugly woman of the Yellow Springs.
Because Liu Yun used his great magical power to create a thunderous hell, which sank the entire Netherworld, it is clear from this that he and Izanami were at odds.
But since they were enemies, the demon generals felt that the right thing to do was to kill them and prevent them from growing stronger. However, Izanami did not do so and even ordered them not to meddle in other people's business back then...
Such behavior was quite perplexing to them, but since Izanami herself was not a normal person, not only was she strong-willed, but she also did things entirely according to her own whims, so even if they didn't understand, they could only obediently listen to her.
“I don’t know… As it stands, there is no sign that the ruler has left the palace… and…” The ugly woman from the Yellow Springs paused noticeably at this point.
She wanted to say that Izanami was losing her power almost every day, and that her aura was rapidly weakening over those ten years. However, she didn't dare to tell the truth because she thought that such a statement would cause people to panic.
"And what?" the group of ghost generals asked, frowning.
The Ugly Woman of the Underworld is the only being able to contact Izanami, and they desperately need her to provide information.
"It's nothing... Anyway, let's all maintain the status quo for now... Everyone should behave themselves, and once the Overlord appears, any problems will be resolved..."
Upon hearing Huang Quan's ugly words, the brows of the ghost generals furrowed even deeper.
These words were nothing but meaningless nonsense to them. The Underworld was clearly undergoing a complete transformation. They had come to Izanami because they sensed something was amiss and felt threatened, but that madwoman refused to see anyone and ignored everything...
Wait until she leaves the palace? By then, it might be too late...
"Should we take action? Killing that couple will solve most of the problems..." one of the Yellow Springs assassins suddenly suggested.
Upon hearing this, everyone's expression changed.
"How do we kill him? That guy's cultivation level doesn't seem high, but even the young ghost king and the Rakshasa ghost king (god-king level) died at his hands. As for the great evil gods who died at his hands, they are countless..." a ghost general said with a solemn expression.
Over the years, Liu Yun has killed countless powerful evil gods, including even god-king level beings. He dares to kill them and even goes out of his way to hunt them down...
Anyone with eyes to see can tell that this human is targeting Izanami, because both the Blue-Faced Demon King and the Rakshasa Demon King are Izanami's subordinates. The ruler of the underworld's people were killed, but the ruler didn't even ask about it, let alone retaliate. The hearts of the people have long since fallen apart...
If it weren't for their fear of Izanami's power and status, they would have wanted to break up long ago...
"Of course we'll surround and kill them. With so many of us, how could we not kill that couple?" Huang Quan's assassin said coldly.
The Yomi assassins possess absolute loyalty; they will unconditionally support Izanami, the ruler of the Yomi, until the day Izanami ceases to be the ruler…
Before the ghost generals could express their opinions, the ugly woman from the underworld spoke first:
"We can't kill him... He possesses the Yellow Spring Black Lotus Seal; unless the Overlord personally intervenes, no one can kill him..."
The ugly woman from the underworld knew some inside information, and her tone was very confident. Her words instantly extinguished the thoughts of many ghost generals to fight back.
"Killing them is not an option, nor is not killing them. Are we just supposed to sit and wait for that human to wipe us all out?" A hot-tempered god-king-level ghost general suddenly slammed the table and roared in anger.
"Why don't you go in and ask the Lord again, Ugly Woman?" another ghost general said cautiously. As soon as he said this, everyone else looked at Ugly Woman from the Yellow Springs.
"I am but a servant girl, please do not make things difficult for me..."
It's obvious that the Ugly Woman of the Underworld won't jump into this deadly trap, because Izanami's emotions have never truly been stable. The Ugly Woman of the Underworld can only listen to Izanami speak, but cannot make Izanami speak...
There used to be many ugly women in the underworld, but now there are very few left... Every word they say to Izanami must be carefully considered before they can be uttered, and they absolutely cannot say a single unnecessary word!
"I'll say it again: let's maintain the status quo for now, and make a decision after the Overlord appears..." The Ugly Woman of the Underworld was still trying to calm people down, but most of the ghost generals were no longer willing to listen to this.
“Since the ruler is not coming out, then I shall take my leave first…” A god-king level ghost general was the first to get up and leave.
With his departure, most of the ghost generals also left the scene, leaving only the most loyal Yellow Springs warriors behind.
From this day forward, many ghost generals chose to band together for mutual support, while many more intentionally distanced themselves from places of trouble and set off for the more distant borders of the Underworld, some even hiding directly in the Pure Land...
The Pure Land connects to the Underworld. That world is like a vast universe with no real boundaries. Hiding within it, even if Liu Yun wanted to hunt them down, he wouldn't be able to find a target!
The ghost generals felt they couldn't afford to offend those two darlings of heaven and earth, so they chose to retreat. If they couldn't afford to offend them, could they at least avoid them?
This approach is actually the wisest, because Ryuun really wants to further wield the sword against the demons and gods who are loyal to Izanami!
