Chapter 523 The Function of the Ghost Pearl

At that time, the man was gathered in front of the gate of Qingcheng. Many people surrounded him and said something. There were many kneeling worshippers everywhere.

Bai Ye put away his mount and everyone walked towards the crowd.

Wei Fuzhi sat leisurely beside a stone table in front of the Qingcheng city gate, wearing an elegant green shirt with his sleeves fluttering in the wind, like a hermit who was at peace with the world.

He held a delicate celadon teacup in his hand and took a sip. His eyes were as calm as water, yet he inadvertently revealed a charm that transcended the world.

He doesn't look like the Lord of the Underworld, but rather like a god.

There was a bustling crowd of people all around, all of them were monks from various places. They were either standing or kneeling, with pleading looks on their faces, and they all cast their gazes towards Wei Fuzhi, their eyes flashing with endless desire for the legendary floating boat.

Some monks put their hands together and prayed devoutly; others knelt on the ground and spoke earnestly, expressing their own difficulties and needs, hoping to borrow the floating boat to solve their urgent problems.

Seeing Xue Yi and the others coming, the man's mouth curled up and his tone was casual.

"Excuse me, everyone. I have already agreed to lend it to a few of them. If you also want to borrow my floating boat, why don't we have a competition? The winner will have priority."

Before he finished speaking, the air around them seemed to freeze. The originally noisy crowd instantly turned into a mob. With greed and madness flashing in their eyes, they took out their magic weapons and surrounded Xue Yi and his group.

Xie Lanyue stretched out her body and flew among the crowd like a light swallow. The Thousand Machine Fan in her hand suddenly opened. The fan was covered with mechanisms and light flowed. Several extremely sharp fan bones cut through the air like sharp blades, forcing the besiegers to retreat again and again and dare not get close.

Bai Ye frowned, and spiritual energy surged around his body, forming a circle of faint protective light shield that protected his companions beside him.

He stared at Wei Fuzhi with a sharp gaze, questioning and puzzled, "Lord of the Underworld, we have no intention of offending anyone. You have already agreed to lend it to us, but now you are instigating this sudden siege. What is your intention?"

Wei Fuzhi put down the teacup and said calmly, "It's nothing interesting. I just felt bored and wanted to watch a show."

Upon hearing this, Xue Yi narrowed her eyes slightly, a meaningful smile appeared on the corner of her mouth, and then she slowly took out the Netherworld Ghost Pearl obtained from the auction from her sleeve.

The beads glowed with a faint blue light in the afterglow of the setting sun, as if they could swallow up all the light around them. A cold and ancient atmosphere instantly spread.

She gently rotated the bead, and the runes on it seemed to come alive, emitting a faint will-o'-the-wisp light, causing the air around it to tremble.

Xue Yi raised her eyes and looked directly at Wei Fuzhi, her eyes were full of both provocation and amusement, "Lord Lord of the Underworld, if you want to watch a show, this Netherworld Ghost Pearl is a good prop. How about we use it to add some fun?"

Wei Fuzhi's figure flashed, and he instantly appeared in front of Xue Yi like a ghost. His eyes were as sharp as an eagle, staring straight at the Nether Ghost Pearl in her hand, his tone mixed with disbelief and a hint of anger:

"Where did you get this?"

Xue Yi did not retreat but advanced, raised her chin slightly, with a cunning light flashing in her eyes. She chuckled, "Of course it was obtained at the auction. Could it be that Lord Hades is also interested in this?"

Upon hearing this, Wei Fuzhi's face became even more gloomy. He looked around and saw that those monks who were originally ready to make a move, trembled involuntarily under his cold gaze, and retreated one after another until they were far away from this place of trouble.

"Everyone, get out of here!"

He waved his sleeves, and an invisible force dispersed the remaining crowd. The area in front of the Qingcheng city gate was suddenly empty, with only a few of them left.
