Ning An's Wild Wish System-Chapter 54 - 49: Hei Wuchang – A Downpour Nearly Ruined My Yanluo Dream

Chapter 54: Chapter 49: Hei Wuchang – A Downpour Nearly Ruined My Yanluo Dream

Who says there’s no sophistication in the Underworld?

Faced with Hei Wuchang’s skepticism, the leading Yin Cha dared not tell the truth and replied miserably:

"Sir, it’s not that we intentionally made things difficult for them, but this guy was unreasonable. When forced to stop, he took a sword and attacked us. I was forced to defend myself. Please see the truth, sir!"

Ning An sighed inwardly and gave silent applause to the Yin Cha leader, who looked honest but was incredibly cunning.

This kind of speech that reverses cause and effect and confuses concepts is something he has mastered thoroughly. Clearly an expert at this...

Ahem, let’s not mention it!

Clearly, he’s a smart ghost who knows how to protect himself well, the type of subordinate that leaders in the human world love!

When he finally meets Emperor Fengdu and gets his place in the Netherworld, he will definitely recommend him to the reincarnation department.

With such brains, why work as a Yin Cha?

He should go to the human world for some real experience.

The Earth God was taken aback. He hadn’t expected this burly man to be so shameless and immediately retorted:

"Did I just start swinging a sword at you? How ugly do you think you are for me to attack you suddenly?"

"Regardless of anything else, would I go to war with the Netherworld if I were crazy?

Unless you refused me entry and even boasted about killing me, would I have done so?"

The black-and-white powdered face of Hei Wuchang reflected utter confusion. He first looked at his loyal-looking subordinate and then at the morally indignant Earth God, sending his brain into a storm of thoughts.

Unable to comprehend it, Hei Wuchang cleared his mind and remembered Yama’s teachings: in such situations, if you can’t figure it out, just muddle through bravely...

"I roughly understand the situation. Alright, alright, both of you, go back first.

I’ll pretend this didn’t happen today, and you should too.

Fengdu City is of great importance in the Six Realms, where not even a Daluo Golden Immortal dares to cause trouble. Don’t make a mess here!"

Hearing Hei Wuchang so nonchalantly brush things off and even elevate the situation to another level, the Earth God furrowed his brows and remained silent.

He wasn’t afraid of order, but if things escalated and the news reached Emperor Fengdu’s ears, it would be extremely disadvantageous for Ning An.

The Earth God sighed inwardly, realizing he might have to plead after all...

"Hei Wuchang, sir!"

Ning An suddenly spoke up loudly:

"Could it be that the officials in the Netherworld listen to wind and believe rain? Listening to only one side of the story and hastily wrapping things up!"

Just as he was about to leave, Hei Wuchang, with his long tongue in his mouth, paused his massive figure and turned around, saying sternly:

"Don’t think you, with your flesh and blood, can just walk into even the Netherworld, let alone Fengdu City! I spare you from the death penalty and you’re still looking for death?"

Ning An smiled and nodded to the Earth God, saying:

"Senior, please send me in front of this gentleman."

The Earth God grunted softly, casually flicked his sleeve, and the barrier protecting Ning An slowly drifted toward Hei Wuchang.

Ning An didn’t fly fast, and his figure wobbled, but his smile grew even warmer.

Seeing the enthusiastic Ning An, Hei Wuchang and the crowd of Witch Race Yin Cha should have lowered their guard, but inexplicably felt a chill in their hearts... a primal urge to turn and leave!

Before Hei Wuchang could speak, Ning An bowed first:

"Junior Ning An, trained under Taiyi. Today, I dare to boldly address you as senior."

"Hmm?"

Two jets of air were snorted from Hei Wuchang’s nostrils. "Taiyi? You’re trying to build connections, why not say you’re under The Three Pristine Ones?"

"You’re joking, senior. Under the heavens, isn’t every Taoist lineage under The Three Pristine Ones?"

Ning An explained with a smile, while reaching into his inner clothing again.

Seeing this, Hei Wuchang’s eyes suddenly lit up. He was too familiar with this action.

Or should I say, most people who know the rules make such actions.

Sure enough.

Ning An whispered thoughtfully:

"Senior, you see, there are too many eyes and ears at the city gate. Can we speak privately?"

"You kid, you get it."

Hei Wuchang patted Ning An in satisfaction: "No need for privacy here. Fengdu City is just like that, acting openly. Don’t worry."

Ning An blinked and asked for confirmation: "Really?"

"When I speak, it’s set in stone, no joking!"

Hearing this, Ning An felt assured, took out a small dark red sword from his inner pocket.

The moment Hei Wuchang saw the small sword, his eyes instantly cleared, filled with respect, shock, and amazement, completely different from his earlier slick demeanor!

He didn’t even care that his tongue fell out, immediately bowing to Ning An:

"Young friend, please step aside for a private chat."

With Ning An’s consent, Hei Wuchang grabbed Ning An’s arm, and in a flash, they moved to a desolate planet.

Amidst the shocked, puzzled, and terrified expressions of the Witch Race Yin Cha lying on the ground, and the Earth God’s knowing smile, Hei Wuchang waved a hand, and the array of Fengdu City expanded to encompass this planet.

Not to mention the crying Witch Race Yin Cha on the ground, even the murderous Earth God couldn’t hear what they were saying...

Time passed by second after second...

Cold sweat dripped continuously from the forehead of the leading Yin Cha, unable to stop. He realized this time he hit an extremely tough wall.

Every second felt like torture.

About the time of an incense stick’s burning, the Fengdu City’s array receded. Hei Wuchang and Ning An were already addressing each other as brothers. Before parting, Hei Wuchang gave Ning An a respectful bow, which Ning An returned courteously.

Hei Wuchang then took out a token from his sleeve, engraved with the small red seal of "Reincarnation Envoy," exuding an inexplicable aura.

Hei Wuchang carefully handed the token to Ning An, advising:

"If you encounter such troublemakers in Fengdu City again, just show them this token. It might not grant you free passage, but it will earn you some respect for my sake."

"Then I’ll shamelessly accept it. Thank you, old brother."

"Hey, brother, there’s no need to be so formal with me. I might not have much, but here in Fengdu City, I do have a bit of influence."

Hei Wuchang chuckled heartily, patting Ning An firmly, before suddenly turning and shouting coldly below:

"What are you standing around for? Make way for my little brother. Even getting dirt on his shoes would be an insult. Get lost!"

Amidst the scolding, Hei Wuchang didn’t forget to give the leading Yin Cha a hard lash with his whip. 𝒻𝑟𝘦𝘦𝘸ℯ𝒷𝑛𝘰𝓋ℯ𝘭.𝘤𝘰𝘮

His expression turned pale, not from pain, but from being scared by Hei Wuchang’s gaze...

Staggering along, Ning An returned to the Earth God’s side.

Small matter, settled!

Fengdu City gates swung open instantly, and under Hei Wuchang’s enthusiastic welcome, the Earth God took Ning An inside on the wind.

The Earth God knew perfectly well and naturally wouldn’t ask Ning An what had happened.

After all, he’s the adopted son of ’that one,’ though forced by an indescribable entity to recognize it, but the status is there nonetheless.

Just entering the city, Hei Wuchang’s expression abruptly changed, his demeanor instantly turning frigid as if stepping into harsh winter conditions.

He turned, swung the whip, all in one motion, leaving a deep wound visible to the bone on the leading Yin Cha.

Hei Wuchang felt unsatisfied and took off his black robe, accompanied by another lashing and some colorful Witch Race language:

"You little bastard!

You hit an iron wall and dared to have me take the blame? You’ve had enough living, huh!

How drunk were you to block a person holding the Great Emperor’s token? Do you think I’m the Jade Emperor’s own son!"
