Chapter 449: Ladies, Welcome!

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

“Ahhhhhhh!!!” The nine female ghosts screamed at the same time.

Lawyer An's face turned green. This was equivalent to being a thief who sneaks into a rich family's house to steal something. He was extremely careful, but at the same time, he was also leading a Bel Canto Choir!

Actually, these nine female ghosts couldn't be blamed for being like this. They instinctively felt a sense of oppression after coming to Hell. They were malicious ghosts. According to the rules of Hell, malicious ghosts couldn't be reincarnated and couldn't cross the Bridge of Helplessness.

Hell was their end.

They were either wandering in the desolation of Hell, or they were caught by Hell's ghosts and patrol officers and directly scattered.

Just like the parts of the assembly line and the waste recycling line, they were scrap that neither side needed.

In the distance, the team of women in cheongsam who had been moving gracefully in the ruined building suddenly stopped. The women stood under the umbrella prettily as if all of this had nothing to do with them.

Zhou Ze met them before when he first went to Hell. They had only passed through the road to the Netherworld without stopping. They did not remember that the otherworldly aura was almost the same as it was now. You could say that they were cold and aloof but at the same time, you could say that they were puppets that had all their emotions cut off.

The old woman who was leading the way with a lantern in front of the group suddenly raised her head. She opened her mouth, revealing a mouthful of black teeth.

“Hehe…” A burst of cold and sinister laughter came from the old woman's mouth. The old woman let out a fierce shout, “What a filthy aura, disgusting! A woman who has lost her chastity dares to lick her way back to Hell! What?! She dares to dream of reincarnating?”

The old woman's figure began to flicker continuously. Every flicker signified that she was much closer to this place. The flicker kept changing like the characters in a slide show.

Finally, she came to this pile of rubble. The old woman realized that there were two men beside the nine women.

Fortunately, this was Hell. Sex and love rarely existed in Hell. After all, no one had a physical body and they lacked the most basic tools to commit crimes.

This was also why some evil spirits who had escaped from Hell began to release themselves crazily once they returned to the world of the living with a physical body. Only in the world of the living could they truly enjoy themselves. Hell was more like the unsullied world that the monks yearned for. Everyone was pure of heart and had few desires.

The old woman's gaze swept past Zhou Ze and Lawyer An. She didn't pay too much attention to them. Evil spirits escaped from Hell from time to time. There were more of them scattered all over the place. No matter how beautiful a city was, it was inevitable that there would be a beggar or a wanderer.

In reality, Zhou Ze had the identity of a ghost messenger. First of all, the ghost messenger was the lowest-level civil servant of the Netherworld. He didn't have much prestige and wasn't special. Secondly, the Netherworld was indeed the representative of the Netherworld's law enforcement system but there was not just one Netherworld messenger.

It was normal for this old woman to see through Zhou Ze's identity. It was just like when great leaders went out, a path would be cleared for them. Everyone could tell at a glance that they were big shots. As for the low-level civil servants, there was probably one who would compete with you for the elbow when you were shopping at the market.

The old woman's attention was still on these nine female ghosts. Her face was filled with disdain and contempt. Yes, disdain and contempt!

“If you lose your honor as a woman, you can either be loyal to the end and pass on the incense for your husband's family or you can die calmly for your honor! If you commit murder, it's really shameful!”

“…” Zhou Ze. Why did he feel that there was something wrong with this old lady's worldview? It was the remnants of feudalism.

Fortunately, Boss Zhou had no sense of justice at all. He did not stand up and shout at the old lady, “You're farting nonsense!”

He just quietly stayed in the corner with Lawyer An and drew circles. He was just short of muttering, “I can't see, I can't see, I can't see, I can't see..”

The nine female ghosts' faces immediately showed anger. They were originally the most pitiful people, and now, they were humiliated by this old woman in such a way. Their anger increased greatly!

This place was not the road to the Underworld, nor was it directly under the jurisdiction of the Yin Masters. If they had appeared as malicious ghosts at any other place, they would have long been suppressed. However, they could still be angry here. They could even fight back!

The malicious ghosts' way of fighting back was very simple. If they were unhappy with you, they would kill you! Their bodies were already stained with human lives. Their consciousness had long been blurred. They were left with their most primitive instincts!

The nine malicious ghosts pounced on the old woman. However, the old woman remained unmoving. When the female ghosts approached her, the lantern in her hand suddenly emitted black flames. The flames split into nine and swept directly onto the nine female ghosts. For a moment, the nine female ghosts were all confined in their original spots. They were tormented by the karmic-sin flames burning their bodies.

Screams rose and fell one after another. It was heart-wrenching to hear.

“Shameless, unchaste women, you've come to the right place. This is where you should be!”

The old woman opened her palm. There was a small stack of paper that looked like a small cut-out garment. She waved her palm. The paper floated out and landed on the nine female ghosts respectively.

In an instant, the nine female ghosts all put on beautiful qipao. The karmic fire dissipated. The female ghosts who put on the qipao suddenly became quiet. They were like marionettes, as well-behaved as they could be.

Boss Zhou secretly clicked his tongue. This old woman's worldview was indeed very crooked but her methods were the same as her worldview. They were extremely powerful.

This was the first time he had seen such a method of subduing evil spirits. It felt like he was in an elevated position. Sure enough, Hell was still too dangerous. There were too many big shots inside. The Yang World was more comfortable in comparison.

The nine female ghosts stood side by side. At this moment, their charm was already 70-80% similar to the cheongsam women below. What was missing was probably the makeup and the peach blossom paper umbrella.

The old woman clapped her hands. She seemed to feel comfortable in her heart. It was as if an obsessive-compulsive disorder patient had finally fixed an eyesore. Her mood was much better.

The old woman suddenly turned her head and looked at Zhou Ze and Lawyer An. “Why don't you see what kind of place this is? Are you even qualified to set foot in this place?”

Zhou Ze and Lawyer An's hearts skipped a beat. They could feel the aura of the old woman gathering at this moment. She was ready to fight!

“Forget it. I'm not a member of the Yin bureau. Why should I care about the Yin bureau's business?”

Zhou Ze and Lawyer An's hearts relaxed again. The Ghosts of the Yang realm had come to Hell. It was like the head of a local police station had entered the capital.

On the local level, you might be a king of the mountain. However, once you enter the capital, you are just one of them. There might be several officials and people of higher status inside.

In short, if you could admit defeat in Hell, then admit defeat.

This was not a matter of admitting defeat. If Zhou Ze and Lawyer An had other identities. If they were ordinary officers of the Yin department, a fight would be a fight.

Although the Yin department couldn't manage this, they were still the department in charge of Hell in name.

However, Lawyer An was a criminal. Once his aura was detected by the outside world, a large number of patrol officers or even judges might appear immediately.

Zhou Ze was even more exaggerating. If the consciousness in his body was awakened, some old monster might suddenly come out of seclusion and kill him to take revenge for the past.

However, the old woman's next words and actions made them freeze. “Since there are a few more girls, there will be a few more people to serve you. I'll take you in. At least you won't be captured by the ghost hunters with me here.”

The old woman opened her palm once again. This time there were two pieces of paper in her palm.

Zhou Ze and Lawyer An could see them clearly.

Blue papers wearing a tall hat.

Damn! Weren't these the clothes of Qing dynasty eunuchs?!

“Go!” The old woman waved her hand, and the two pieces of clothes flew directly towards Zhou Ze and Lawyer An.

Hmmm.

If they were the wandering ghosts that were running around in Hell, they would probably accept their fate. They would even be willing to suffer. After all, if they stayed here to serve, they wouldn't be in danger of being captured by ghost hunters.

Anyway, they were already dead, so why would they care?

How many good men in ancient times cut off their eggs to eat a mouthful of rice?

However, Zhou Ze was different from Lawyer An. He still had a body and identity in the world of the living. He still had a beautiful life waiting for him.

Even if it was just a temporary measure, it wasn't enough. Not to mention the nine women's previous performance, the clothes they wore seemed to have the effect of controlling their souls. Even if they left a shadow in the depths of their souls, a man couldn't do so!

Think about it. If a normal man in his soul thought that he was a eunuch in the depths of his subconscious mind, how terrifying would that be?

Lawyer An made the first move. His left hand turned into white bones and directly tore apart a piece of clothing in front of him.

Zhou Ze was stunned for a moment.

Holy shit. You made a move! Why didn't you directly tear off two pieces?

Zhou Ze's fingernails also grew out. He tore the clothes in front of him.

Since he had already made his move, there was nothing to be afraid of. The two men stood side by side. If the aura were to leak out, then let it leak out,

Now, he could only pray that this place was not under the jurisdiction of the Yin Masters and would not attract the attention of the other Yin Masters.

Of course, he still had to do what needed to be done. This fight… This was for the dignity of a man!

Seeing that the clothes she had rewarded had been torn, the old woman did not get angry. Instead, she smiled. She said, “Good. Very good.”

The old woman took a step back. It was as if she could tell that these two men were not ordinary people. She immediately clapped her hands and shouted, “Ladies, welcome the guests!”
