Chapter 226 - 226: 195 – Determining Strategies, Inviting the World to Battle, Ghost Emperor’s Decision (5.2K Request for Subscription, Request for Monthly Ticket) Part 3

“Brother Pei, this move will certainly attract the attention of everyone in Jianghu. The Slayer Taoist comes back to challenge the heroes in Jianghu and wants to re-establish the Shenxiao Sect. With such a gimmick, I am sure no one in Jianghu will not participate in this lively event.” Bai Xiaosheng exclaimed with joy upon hearing this, feeling that Pei Xuanjing’s idea was excellent.

Pei Xuanjing grinned, “Then I will have to bother Brother Bai to get the word out.”

“For such a cause, I’m most willing.” Bai Xiaosheng lightly swung his folding fan, and asked, “I wonder who Brother Pei has chosen as his first opponent?”

There are countless experts in Jianghu. Selecting who to be the first opponent is a tricky matter.

Having a suitable opponent would indeed bring out the full effect of Pei Xuanjing’s battle.

Pei Xuanjing also understood the importance of the first opponent. He mentioned the opponent he had chosen in his life simulation, and asked tentatively, “How about Justice Hall?”

This was the power he chose in his life simulation. Justice Hall belonged to the top-tier power in Jianghu, and the two masters were also formidable.

“Justice Hall?” After hearing this name, Bai Xiaosheng repeated it quietly.

He carefully recalled the information about Justice Hall. His somewhat furrowed brow instantly relaxed, and the smile on his face became increasingly jovial.

“Hahaha…” Bai Xiaosheng laughed heartily, tapping his folding fan, “Brother Pei is really wise, I’m impressed. I must say, choosing Justice Hall is the most appropriate choice.”

As someone who prided himself on knowing and understanding all the affairs in the world, Bai Xiaosheng was familiar with the information about all major powers in the Jianghu.

After Pei Xuanjing proposed this plan, he quickly recalled the information about various powers in his mind, intending to help Pei Xuanjing select a suitable opponent.

Upon hearing the name “Justice Hall,” the information about Justice Hall quickly surfaced in his mind.

Justice Hall was established 120 years ago when the obscure Ma Wuji rose to fame in Jianghu with his Wuji Fist Skill.

After he advanced to the first-grade realm, he founded Justice Hall with many other experts. After more than a hundred years of development, it has leapt to become a major power in the North’s martial arts world.

Although Ma Wuji’s strength was slightly inferior to the chief figures in Jianghu like Qingxu and the Lord of Shenxiao Gate, he was good at making friends thanks to his background as a merchant and had friends all over the world. He was arguably as influential as those chief figures.

Therefore, if Pei Xuanjing announced his challenge towards him, and Bai Xiaosheng pushed for it behind the scenes, the resulting ripples would inevitably draw many experts to aid him.

Such gathering of experts would undoubtedly attract the attention of many people.

That was why Bai Xiaosheng couldn’t help himself from praising Pei Xuanjing’s excellent choice of this opponent.

Moreover, out of confidence in Pei Xuanjing, he never thought that Pei Xuanjing would lose.

He was aware that when he saw Pei Xuanjing on Shenxiao Mountain again, Pei Xuanjing’s strength had once again increased, which greatly surprised him.

From Bai Xiaosheng’s perspective, many experts experienced a period where they seemed to have the Heavenly Mandate, their actions being smooth and successful, and their strength rapidly improving.

However, he had never seen anyone like Pei Xuanjing who could continuously grow stronger at such an astounding rate, which was simply startling.

He even wondered if Pei Xuanjing had broken through to the Spirit Realm before the revival of Heaven and Earth.

All these thoughts flashed through Bai Xiaosheng’s mind in an instant, then he said to Pei Xuanjing, “If that’s the case, I’ll get ready. It will take only half a month to spread this news throughout the martial arts world.”

Pei Xuanjing smiled and said, “In that case, I’ll wait for the good news.”

After detailed discussions, Bai Xiaosheng drifted away.

Only Pei Xuanjing was left on the mountain, continuing his cultivation, and waiting to descend the mountain again when the time was ripe.

The old lair of the Netherworld was the still same. The Ghost God of Fengdu still sat high on his throne, with long hair cascading down and wearing an imperial robe embroidered with ghost gods.

Regrettably, the Yama King, the second-in-command in the Netherworld, was dead.

Now it was King Qin Guang, another Yama King, standing in his place.

King Qin Guang, who wore a ghostly mask, stood in the empty hall, facing the throne. With his head bowed slightly, he asked, “Emperor, shall we get involved in this Mire Sect matter?”

Yes, Zhao Baiyang had relayed the plan to the Netherworld, hoping to get their support.

The Ghost God of Fengdu lamented, “What a pity, the Yama King is dead, otherwise he would have been the most suitable person to participate in this matter.”

The Yama King’S cultivation method was extremely mysterious. If he could personally kill an emperor, it would significantly increase his strength

Unfortunately, two years ago, the Yama King was killed, and he not only lost his life, but also lost a page of the Netherworld Book.

Thinking about the death of his own henchman, the Ghost God of Fengdu was filled with rage.

According to the news from his subordinates, the person who struck the blow this time was still Pei Xuanjing, and the page of the Netherworld Book also fell into Pei Xuanjing’s hands.

Thinking about how Pei Xuanjing had repeatedly hindered him and caused many of his people to suffer, the Ghost God of Fengdu could not contain his anger. He wished to smash Pei Xuanjing into pieces and scatter his ashes to ease his hatred.

If it weren’t for the fact that he had been cultivating a skill two years ago, he would have broken through his cultivation and personally taken Pei Xuanjing’s life.

Now that his divine skill was completed, he intended to personally kill Pei Xuanjing and let him know that anyone who offended the Netherworld was bound to die.

He also wanted to let people in Jianghu know that the dignity of the Netherworld was inviolable.

“Tell Zhao Baiyang, this time the emperor will personally go to Tiandu!” The Ghost God of Fengdu said coldly, his voice filled with murderous intent and coldness.

Since he happened to encounter this incident, he did not mind making a move.

He planned to enter Tiandu first to assassinate the emperor, then kill Pei Xuanjing on the side, retrieve the page of the Netherworld Book that belonged to the Netherworld, and restore the prestige of the Netherworld.

“Yes!” King Qin Guang did not dare to defy the Ghost God of Fengdu’s decision. He responded and retreated. The cold and solemn voice echoed in the empty hall behind him.

“Pei Xuanjing, this time you are bound to die!”
