Chapter 417: Chapter 416: Ten-Thousand-Zhang Ghostly Realm

Deng Ling’Er picked up a rock and threw it at Ye Feng.

Ye Feng laughed heartily and left.

Just then, a scout rushed over to report. "Miss, the Southern Ghost Emperor is leading three million elite soldiers from the direction of the Underworld!"

Soon after, another came to report, "Miss, the Eastern Ghost Emperor is leading three million elite soldiers and flanking us from the rear!"

Duncan, who had just returned, turned pale upon hearing the news. "Ling’Er, the Underworld plans to annihilate us here!"

Deng Ling’Er chuckled. "It’s not yet certain who will be annihilating whom!"

She turned to the messenger and gave her orders directly: "Relay these commands: do this, and this, and that..."

The messenger acknowledged the orders and departed.

At that moment, a deafening cannon blast echoed from the direction of the Underworld, followed by roiling clouds of dust. Before long, a contingent of troops emerged whistling from the dust cloud, halting six hundred meters from Black Wind Pass.

Duncan looked ahead and saw banners that blotted out the sun. Beneath the banners were soldiers in black robes, a dense, endless sea of them.

At the sight, Duncan’s legs began to cramp. He looked at Deng Ling’Er, his face pale, and said, "Ling’Er, there are so many of them... The situation looks dire!"

Deng Ling’Er just chuckled. "It’s fine. None of them are leaving here today!"

The words had barely left her lips when the black-robed army parted to form a path, and an old man in a white robe stepped out from the crowd.

Seeing the newcomer, Duncan’s face went completely white. His voice trembled as he cried out, "The Southern Ghost Emperor! That’s the Southern Ghost Emperor!"

The arrival was, indeed, the Southern Ghost Emperor.

The Southern Ghost Emperor looked at Duncan and spoke in a cold voice, "Duncan, you ant. How dare you offend the majesty of the Underworld? Are you courting death?"

Duncan looked at the Southern Ghost Emperor, forcing a smile. "Lord Ghost Emperor, that wasn’t my intention. Please, let me explain..."

"Silence!" The Southern Ghost Emperor cut him off coldly before he could finish. "Daring to bring your people here has exposed your treacherous ambitions. Nothing you say today will matter. All of you will remain here. Not a single one will leave!"

With that, he waved his hand and roared, "All units, hear my command! Kill!"

"KILL!" The forces of the Underworld roared, surging forward like a tide to attack Deng Ling’Er’s contingent.

"Dad, take your men and hold them back!" Deng Ling’Er said, looking at Duncan.

Duncan gritted his teeth and charged forward.

Just then, a large man from the opposing side looked at Duncan and said coldly, "Duncan, you think you can stop my army? You’re not worthy. Go die!"

He then charged at Duncan. ℴℴ𝘮

It was King Bian of Bian City, one of the Ten Yama Kings of the Underworld.

Duncan met his charge directly, and the two clashed.

Behind him, the forces of the Deng family crashed heavily into the black-robed army. Instantly, dust filled the air, and the sky shook with the sounds of battle.

But the Deng family’s forces were clearly no match for the black-robed army. After just a few exchanges, they were already in full retreat. From the rear, Deng Ling’Er frowned and shouted:

"Retreat!"

"Fall back!" Duncan also leaped out of the fray and retreated toward the rear.

From behind, King Bian of Bian City sneered. "Trying to run? You’re dreaming. Your fate was sealed the moment you set foot here. Today, all of you will stay. Not one of you will escape! Brothers, kill them!"

With that, he led the black-robed army in pursuit.

They led their people in a swift retreat, but another earth-shattering cannon blast roared from behind them, followed by the whistling arrival of another large contingent of troops.

An old man in a green robe at the head of the troops sneered. "This road... is closed!"

When Duncan saw the newcomer, he couldn’t help but scream. "The Eastern Ghost Emperor! Lord Eastern Ghost Emperor!"

Then he looked at Deng Ling’Er and shrieked, "Ling’Er, run! We can’t hold them off!"

With that, he and Deng Ling’Er led their people and charged back toward Black Wind Pass.

The Southern Ghost Emperor watched Deng Ling’Er and her people, sneering. "A bunch of ants like you dare to provoke my Underworld? Truly reckless. Now, I’ll see you on your way!"

He then formed a hand seal with his right hand and chanted an incantation. The next moment, he pointed his right hand forward and roared:

"Myriad-zhang Ghostly Realm, arise!"

Instantly, plumes of black mist shot into the sky, swiftly enveloping Deng Ling’Er and her people. Faint roars of fierce ghosts could be heard from within the mist, creating a sinister and terrifying atmosphere.

"What is this damn thing?!" Duncan’s terrified shout echoed from within the black mist.

The Southern Ghost Emperor sneered. "The Myriad-zhang Ghostly Realm. Ever heard of it? Inside, you won’t be able to tell east from west. Your minds will be bewildered by fierce ghosts, and you’ll become nothing but lambs to the slaughter.

"Are the methods of my Underworld something you ants can even imagine? You dared to provoke the Underworld, so you will pay a terrible price!"

With that, he roared, "King Bian of Bian City, hear my order! Lead the army in and exterminate every last one of them!"

"As you command!" King Bian of Bian City acknowledged the order and led the large black-robed army straight into the Myriad-zhang Ghostly Realm.

On the other side, the Eastern Ghost Emperor looked at King Yama beside him and said calmly, "King Yama, hear my order. You will also take your men into the Myriad-zhang Ghostly Realm. Join King Bian of Bian City and dispose of these ants as quickly as possible."

"As you command!" King Yama acknowledged the order and led his army straight into the Myriad-zhang Ghostly Realm.

Within the Myriad-zhang Ghostly Realm, the corners of Deng Ling’Er’s lips curled up slightly. ’Southern Ghost Emperor, you’ve certainly saved me a lot of effort.’

She picked up her phone and made a call. "Yun’Er, it’s your turn."

Soon, the sound of low chanting arose from nearby.

At this moment, King Bian of Bian City, who had already charged into the black mist, raised the ghost-headed saber in his hand, pointed it at Duncan and his people ahead, and roared:

"Brothers, they’re all blind as bats now! Get over there and chop them all to pieces! Charge!"

From the other side, King Yama was also charging forward with his troops. But just as they came within a hundred meters of Duncan’s group, a scene unfolded before them that made King Bian of Bian City’s pupils suddenly contract.
