Villain: Capture The Loli Sword Spirit At The Beginning

"Is it really not possible? I really hope you can remember what you just said."

Xia Die glanced coldly at Gao Wang, her eyes constantly shifting towards Chen Xi, as if her tender emotions could squeeze out tears.

"Alright, alright, stop arguing."

The current situation in front of Chen Xi was tricky.

He didn't want to offend either of them.

Therefore, he could only adopt this compromising approach.

"Okay~" Xia Die blinked at Chen Xi.

"Hehe, I obey, Your Majesty," Gao Wang smirked cruelly. "By the way, Your Majesty, now that your strength has mostly recovered, shouldn't we implement the grand plan we had before?"

"Grand plan... which one are you referring to?"

Chen Xi felt a headache coming on.

As the Grudge Spirit Emperor, he had almost no memories, and basically all the information he knew came from others.

When it came to the grand plan, Chen Xi was completely clueless.

He subconsciously glanced at Xia Die, hoping she wouldn't speak in riddles.

But Xia Die's expression also became serious:

"Yes, Your Majesty, those people obstructed us back then, causing our great cause to remain unfinished. Now it's time to continue the grand plan."

"Well... you make a good point."

Chen Xi could only nod, frantically thinking about how to steer the conversation.

His gaze swept between Gao Wang and Xia Die, contemplating who would be easier to coax information out of.

But suddenly, Gao Wang grinned at him again:

"Your Majesty, shouldn't you assign us tasks? With your wisdom, you surely haven't thought of nothing..."

Although Xia Die disliked Gao Wang's attitude, she also looked at Chen Xi expectantly, hoping he would assign them tasks.

Chen Xi could only cough lightly:

"Cough, cough, this matter is of great importance, and it needs to be discussed thoroughly."

"But no matter how thoroughly we discuss it, we still need to work together, right? What do you think, Xia Die?"

"Yes, Your Majesty, let us help you share the burden."

With things reaching this point, Chen Xi could only bring out his authority as the Grudge Spirit Emperor:

"Enough for today! We'll discuss it later."

Seeing this, even Gao Wang chose to keep quiet.

Testing the limits was one thing, but he still feared Chen Xi's anger.

The shadow left by the Grudge Spirit Emperor in that era was still present.

"You truly live up to your reputation as the legendary Grudge Spirit Emperor. It's just repairing the Six Paths of Reincarnation, why bother hiding it?"

Xia Die and Gao Wang immediately transformed into their true forms, releasing their spiritual power, and looked very vigilant towards the source of the voice.

Chen Xi was startled, and his entire body was instantly enveloped in spiritual power.

The other party didn't intend to hide their intentions, and appeared directly in front of the main hall.

A dark golden crown, dark golden imperial robe, pale skin, and an unparalleled domineering aura.

"Sensing my presence but deliberately not speaking? I thought I was hiding very well, but it seems the Grudge Spirit Emperor is truly remarkable."

The unexpected guest walked over with a fake smile, seemingly not taking the imposing aura emitted by Chen Xi and the others seriously.

Xia Die turned her head in astonishment, her eyes filled with admiration as she looked at Chen Xi.

Even Gao Wang's expression became solemn.

Chen Xi felt relieved.

Where did this good person come from, offering him a way out?

If he didn't follow this path, he would be too foolish.

But soon he regained his composure.

Who is this person?

How did he know about the grand plan of the Ghost Emperor?

"Hmph! You have the audacity to trespass into my palace!"

"Don't worry, I mean no harm. Who dares to oppose the once invincible Ghost Emperor?"

As the man spoke, he casually summoned a throne that was on par with the throne in the Ghost Emperor's palace.

Then, the man sat on the throne and looked at Chen Xi:

"I came here only to seek cooperation with the Ghost Emperor!"

"You sneaked around and didn't even introduce yourself. That's not the attitude for seeking cooperation."

Xia Die angrily scolded, glaring fiercely at the man on the throne.

A gloomy expression appeared on the man's pale face:

"Ghost Emperor, is this how you treat your subordinates? If one of my subordinates dared to interrupt, he would have been annihilated by now."

Chen Xi felt immense pressure, but he also knew that he couldn't back down at this moment.

If he were to retreat, the other party would definitely take advantage.

So he coldly snorted:

"It's not up to an outsider to interrupt the way I treat my subordinates! If you continue like this, don't blame me for being impolite!"

Although Chen Xi's aura was astonishing, he felt extremely uneasy inside.

The man in imperial attire before him was clearly not someone to be trifled with.

If they were to really fight, he didn't have much confidence.

After hearing Chen Xi's words, the other party's aura surged, almost solidifying into substance in the air.

Chen Xi could only envelop the other party with his own spiritual power, ready to take action at any moment.

The two of them stood in a stalemate like this, causing the weak ghosts to tremble in fear.

But they also supported Chen Xi in their own way, glaring fiercely at this mysterious man.

It was unknown how long they had been in this standoff when the mysterious man suddenly withdrew all his spiritual power.

"Underworld Clan, Underworld Lord."

He raised his head arrogantly, but received no response from the other party.

Xia Die and Gao Wang looked at each other in confusion, then turned to look at Chen Xi in unison.

And in Chen Xi's eyes, there was also confusion.

Only then did the Underworld Lord remember that the ghosts had just been released, and the Underworld Clan had been in seclusion during that era. It was likely that the other party had never heard of the Underworld Clan.

But he didn't explain too much.

As long as the other party stayed in the Immortal Domain, they would eventually learn about the Underworld Clan themselves.

"I heard that you want to repair the Six Paths of Reincarnation, but with your power, even if you repair it, you won't gain the slightest bit of merit."

"Ridiculous! What makes you think that I can't gain merit?"

"The rules of heaven and earth are broken and incomplete. When you ghosts were rampant and killing, did you ever see karmic retribution? When someone does good deeds and accumulates virtue, do they receive the power of merit? Besides the method of redeeming you ghosts, what other method is there to increase merit? Without the corresponding method, no matter how much you do, what meaning does it have?"

The Underworld Lord sneered at Chen Xi.

Xia Die and Gao Wang were also shocked and looked at Chen Xi.

It was the first time they had heard such a statement.

"That's right, I didn't expect you to understand this. I have indeed been thinking about how to gain great merit after repairing the cycle of reincarnation."

Chen Xi had also never heard of such a statement before.

But in front of so many people, he definitely couldn't reveal anything, so he could only put on a look of cunning calculation.

"Heh, you're really cautious. If I didn't say anything, you probably planned to deny it to the end. But what's the point of denying it? I have already figured everything out, otherwise... why would I come here?"

"Now that you know so much, why don't you guess how I plan to gain this merit?"

Chen Xi looked at the Underworld Lord, with a look that said, "I'll test you."
