Chapter 926
Wang Ling had already sensed that Jiang Yi had changed quite a bit.
At this moment, the mechanical skeleton's voice clearly carried an intention to dissuade and obstruct them.
He subconsciously felt that Jiang Yi might try to force his way in.
She was thinking of a better solution and was about to try to persuade Jiang Yi.
Unexpectedly, Jiang Yi did not continue to force his way in.
Instead, it truly halted the invasion of the Scroll of No Thought and responded in the direction of the mechanical skeleton:
"I wonder how many Yellow Springs Passes the Lord of the Underworld has issued, and if he still remembers... those issued a hundred thousand years ago?"
These words shocked not only Wang Ling.
Even the mechanical skull on the tower, amidst its eerie mechanical appearance, revealed a hint of surprise.
After a moment of silence, the mechanical skull continued to emit its eerie sound:
"I wonder if it is..."
"That senior's junior?"
That's right. When Jiang Yi obtained the [Nine Netherworld Pass] from Tian Chou using his identity as a mysterious senior, he said he would leave it to the younger generation.
And it has already been hinted at, both overtly and covertly—
Many years later, a descendant of the mysterious senior might use that [Nine Netherworld Pass] to arrive at the Land of the Dead.
This is equivalent to giving Tianchou a heads-up in advance, instructing him to treat the mysterious senior's "junior" well.
However, when Jiang Yi obtained the pass, he did not explicitly state that "many years later" would be as long as 100,000 years.
Unexpectedly, even after 100,000 years, Tianchou still remembers.
They even gave specific instructions to the mechanical skull guarding the city.
but--
At the time "100,000 years ago", Tianchou's pass to the Yellow Springs was not only given to Jiang Yi.
He was the first to give Xu Nianhua a pass.
At this moment, the mechanical skeleton directly concluded that he was the junior of the mysterious senior, not Xu Nianhua...
So it seems that Xu Nianhua has used up that Yellow Springs Pass and come to this Yellow Springs Land over the past 100,000 years.
Jiang Yi pondered some details in his mind, and at the same time responded to the mechanical skeleton:
“That’s right. I’m here on your orders, senior, to discuss important matters with the Lord of the Underworld.”
Among the strange mechanical features of that mechanical skull, one mouth was simply open, revealing a row of neat, dark teeth.
In a pair of mechanical eyes, there is a strange black bead on each side.
At this moment, the black bead spun around, mimicking the thoughtful expression of an ordinary person.
In the scroll of dreams without thought, even the foolish one pondered—
Who is the senior Jiang Yi mentioned?
He actually lived for 100,000 years and had a private relationship with the Lord of the Underworld?
Jiang Yi's rapid growth clearly indicates he's not without a powerful background...
As he was pondering, the mechanical skeleton seemed to have finished its thought and then spoke towards the direction of the Scroll of Dreamless Thoughts:
"If the so-called 'being ordered' and 'discussing important matters' refer to using the underworld as a pretext to fake one's death..."
The mechanical skeleton hadn't finished speaking, but its meaning was already clear—
If he only wants to fake his death in the underworld, then he doesn't need to see Tianchou; the mechanical skeleton can arrange it for him.
So it seems that Tianchou is busy right now?
Jiang Yi also had something to do and really didn't want to delay any longer.
After all, the strange pointer in his hand was clearly in a state where it could go out of control at any moment!
So he interrupted the mechanical skeleton directly, his tone even more forceful:
"It is alright if the Lord of the Underworld has something to attend to."
"But the important matter I'm referring to isn't faking my death, but rather borrowing the Teng Haiqi of the Lord of the Underworld."
Upon hearing this, the atmosphere in the entire underwater city seemed to change abruptly.
The dark shadows that had been lying prostrate on the ground after the mechanical skeleton appeared seemed to float faintly for a moment before returning to normal.
The mechanical skeleton, however, underwent even more significant changes.
The two eerie eyeballs that had been spinning around suddenly stopped.
After a moment of silence, the mechanical skeleton pointed in the direction of the Scroll of Dreamless Confusion and confirmed:
"you say……"
"You want to borrow Teng Haiqi?"
