Chapter 1916 Yama King
?"It's time." Xiao Shou stared at the dark sky from his courtyard. His eyes were calm and composed as if everything was within his expectations.
If Yun Lintian were here, he would notice that Xiao Shou's temperament was entirely different.
"My lord." At this moment, a middle-aged man in black walked into the courtyard and bowed his head deeply. "There are movements inside the palace."
Xiao Shou turned around to look at him and said. "Have you called them?"
"Hua Rong and Shi Gou are on their way. Ying She, on the other hand, refused to come." The middle-aged man replied solemnly.
Xiao Shou smiled and said. "That's good."
He paused for a moment and asked. "How long have you been by my side?"
The middle-aged man quickly replied. "It's been a million and two hundred thousand years, my lord."
"It's been hard on you, " Xiao Shou said gently.
"No, my lord. It is my honor to serve you." The middle-aged man spoke sincerely.
"You don't need to hide anymore. I'll return the freedom to you." Xiao Shou smiled.
"Yes, my lord." The middle-aged man bowed deeply.
He was Hui Liang, the true Ashe Ghost King.
Xiao Shou had deceived the entire Netherworld by disguising himself as the Ashe Ghost King.
His true identity was the ruler of the Southern Region, the Southern Emperor.
Xiao Shou turned to look in the bridge's direction and spoke to himself. "I hope you can understand it."

The change in the Netherworld stirred commotions all over the place. Even ordinary ghosts could feel their strength improving.
Inside the Tower of Fate, Yun Lintian slowly opened his eyes, and the aura of death immediately erupted from within his body.
He didn't think about it further and searched for Si Junyi's name. As he had expected, his name wasn't on the book.
Yun Lintian proceeded to check Xiao Shou's name and was surprised to find no record of such a name.
"What's going on?" Yun Lintian frowned slightly. He looked up at everyone he met here and discovered their names in the book.
"I know it... He is not ordinary." Yun Lintian spoke to himself.
Yun Lintian always felt something was amiss from the first time he met Xiao Shou, but he couldn't pinpoint it. He either used a fake name, or his true identity was beyond his imagination. Of course, Xiao Shou could also be one of the five emperors.
Yun Lintian set this matter aside and looked at Master Bai's name.
[Bai Junjie. Status: Dead. The cause of death: Fulfilling the Pact of Death.]
Yun Lintian grabbed the Judge's Pen and started to change Master Bai's status to alive. He then removed the cause of death.
Buzz—
The deathly aura around Yun Lintian immediately surged and flowed into the Book of the Dead in his hand.
At this moment, the details regarding Master Bai's name had been successfully changed.
[Bai Junjie. Status: Alive.]
Yun Lintian nodded with satisfaction. With this, he could easily take Master Bai away from the Netherworld through the Gate of Beyond Heaven.
Yun Lintian put the book away and looked at Gui Xuan. "Let's go. We need to find the Horse-Faced statue."
Gui Xuan immediately jumped into Yun Lintian's arms with the bowl in his hand.
Yun Lintian looked at Hei Shou and said. "Please stay here for a while."
"I know. Go." Hei Shou responded.
Yun Lintian didn't say anything else and quickly left the tower.

Inside the Southern Capital City, Master Bai and Ouyang Feng were sitting in the room. They didn't dare to approach the bridge because too many people were around the area.
"Hmm?" Suddenly, Ouyang Feng noticed the change in Master Bai's body.
