Chapter 161 Gatekeeper

A black mark, similar to the shape of a flower but rather ghastly, appeared on the baby's forehead.

"Hey, you defected from hell just to get revenge?"

Zhou Ze suddenly felt that trying to persuade others to give up revenge was idiotic.

An Buqi had been too ruthless back then; no one would give up revenge because of a few words of persuasion, and besides, Boss Zhou was well aware of his own persuasive abilities.

Zhou Ze still hoped that the other party could prioritize the bigger picture.

He was really afraid of trouble and preferred not to get involved in the vortex if possible.

However, it was impossible for Boss Zhou to abandon Lawyer An. Since following him, An Buqi had worked hard, and he couldn't just sell him out in exchange for peace and quiet.

This...

Boss Zhou really couldn't do it.

So, how wonderful would it be if the world could return to the purity of childhood TV shows, where everything could be easily determined and identified as either "good guys" or "bad guys"?

The baby's gaze swept over Zhou Ze.

He slowly said:

"You were planning to let me go before, so I can spare your life this time."

"..." Zhou Ze.

Boss Zhou hesitated whether he should say thank you.

But the problem was, no matter how he looked at it, you were the meat on my chopping board.

"Geng Chen, is there something wrong with your brain?" Lawyer An laughed. "Hey, hey, who's the one being captured here?"

"Aaaaaahhhhh!!!"

A piercing shriek came from the baby's mouth.

Immediately afterward,

Above the baby's head,

A black halo appeared.

A desolate aura poured down from the black halo.

He,

Had a backup plan!

An Buqi also shouted, but compared to the baby's scream, it seemed much weaker, a bit like a Corgi facing a Golden Retriever, not wanting to lose face.

But Lawyer An still leaned towards his boss with conviction; at this time, the boss's back was his true warm harbor.

"Boss, I had my own unspeakable reasons back then."

Zhou Ze raised his hand, signaling Lawyer An to shut up.

Boss Zhou was worried that Lawyer An would continue to reveal dirt, and he himself would not be able to resist killing Lawyer An to appease the heavens before the other party could even make a move.

At the same time,

Zhou Ze's nails began to exert force.

However,

The baby's body seemed to be protected by a layer of membrane, and Zhou Ze's nails couldn't penetrate it at all. He hadn't noticed this just now, no wonder the other party had been so confident.

As the anomaly continued to occur and develop,

An unfamiliar aura began to descend!

"Geng Chen, what is this...?"

Horror appeared in Lawyer An's eyes.

As soon as he finished speaking,

A black shadow fell,

Merging into the baby's body.

The baby's body did not expand; on the contrary, it even shrank a little, but a silhouette of an adult man appeared beside the baby.

It was as if it had been drawn directly with a brush; the bones, textures, details, and everything else were very clear.

Accompanying this,

Was a terrifying pressure in a state of half-sleep!

"An Buqi, didn't expect it? I accomplished what you wanted to do but couldn't back then."

Geng Chen's voice was still very calm; even now, he still didn't give the feeling that he was the villain.

More like,

The righteous protagonist was about to start turning the tables!

Zhou Ze silently retreated, his face a bit serious.

Lawyer An naturally followed Zhou Ze in retreat; fortunately, the boss was only retreating, not dodging, otherwise Lawyer An would have really pissed himself.

Geng Chen's body slowly stretched out; you could even hear the sound of cracking joints at this time, but you couldn't specifically perceive the existence of his form.

This should be a kind of power transfer,

A bit like borrowing power from an ancient existence through some kind of connection, similar to the sea god in Xu Niangniang's body, but it was unknown who the person in front of him borrowed power from.

You should know that his identity was a defector from the underworld; who would dare to wade into this muddy water?

"You actually made a deal with them? This time, you defected to bring them out?"

Lawyer An suddenly understood something and exclaimed:

"Damn it, do you know what disaster you're bringing to the mortal realm by doing this!"

The baby (Geng Chen) looked at Lawyer An behind Zhou Ze with a smile that was not a smile, and said:

"You're talking to me about the disasters of the mortal realm?"

This wasn't something you, An Buqi, would care about.

Zhou Ze +1

"Boss, after this guy was punished by the underworld, he went to the bitter and cold sealed land in the far west of hell to be a gatekeeper, but his current appearance is obviously guarding and stealing.

Geng Chen, as a gatekeeper, even if you don't care about the orders of the underworld, you should remember your duty. What you're doing is truly heinous!"

The baby waved his hand down, and a terrifying force burst out like a flood!

Zhou Ze raised both hands horizontally,

Ten fingernails plus his own spells rose together,

Offsetting most of this terrible force,

But Zhou Ze's figure was still blown backward.

After the force was almost dissipated, Zhou Ze put down his arms and asked Lawyer An behind him: "What exactly is that thing?"

"That place seals the giants who wreaked havoc in hell after the fall of the one in your body, Boss. Before the first Yama of Mount Tai reorganized hell, it took a lot of effort to suppress and seal these giants.

Even after entering the era of the Ten Kings of Hell in the underworld, the seal and guardianship of those places have never been relaxed.

No wonder Feng Si'er, that bastard, said things were so serious; this is equivalent to these guys guarding and stealing, and also bringing 'nuclear bombs' to the mortal realm!"

The baby walked towards Zhou Ze.

His voice was no longer childish, but became a bit rough.

He said:

"You, the constable, can leave. Just as you had compassion for me just now, in return, I will spare you this time.

But An Buqi,

Must die!"

"I'll f*ck your ancestor! You violated the rules yourself, smuggling the souls of your wife and daughters into hell. I exposed you, but I have a clear conscience!

Even if Feng Si'er scattered the souls of your wife and daughters, it was because of your own good deeds. Because of you, the souls of your wife and daughters were stained with too much hellish evil, and their sins were too heavy to enter reincarnation! They can only become wandering souls like beasts!

Feng Si'er said that it was your wife and daughters who begged him to help them be freed before he scattered them; they knelt at Feng Si'er's feet and begged!

Motherf*cker,

I schemed against you, yes, but I didn't have the reason or boredom to scheme against you and then take it out on your wife and daughters."

The baby's footsteps stopped.

He seemed to be really thinking, seemed to be really confused, but he still slowly raised his hand again, as if it was a kind of inertia.

The terrifying black wind surged over again at an extremely fast speed.

Zhou Ze took a deep breath, the zombie baleful aura on his body spread out,

Forcibly taking a step forward,

Again dispersing the opponent's move,

But Boss Zhou's own arms also began to tremble and shake, his veins bulging, obviously, his body was also a bit strained.

"What's the point of saying this now?" the baby said in a deep voice.

"Point? Of course there's a point! Don't you know the rules of the underworld yourself!

First, you violated the rules first!

Second, don't tell me you didn't notice the changes in the souls of your wife and daughters back then. I did scheme against you, but you insist on blaming the destruction of the souls of your wife and daughters on me, covering up your own inner guilt. I just won't let you get your way!"

Lawyer An shouted at the top of his lungs.

The baby did not raise his hand again,

But slowly closed his eyes,

Two lines of hot tears began to drip gently from the corners of his eyes.

The original killing intent was actually slowly dissipating at this time.

Boss Zhou really felt a bit dumbfounded at this time.

So,

He really wasn't planning to kill?

Had he discovered his conscience?

Had he started to repent?

Perhaps he was too used to seeing deception and the "ghost eat ghost" jungle law of hell, and he was suddenly encountering this kind of upright gentleman.

Boss Zhou was really a bit unaccustomed to it.

At the same time, he couldn't help but slander in his heart: Brother, with your personality, it's really not wrong for you to be schemed against and tricked by An Buqi back then.

Who else would he trick if not you?

Lawyer An poked his head out from behind Zhou Ze again; seeing that the baby had stopped moving, he also breathed a sigh of relief and said:

"What happened back then, I'm sorry for you, I apologize to you; I schemed for your position, but you guys defected this time, you definitely didn't come up just to find me for revenge, right?

Well,

Let's mind our own business, can we?"

The baby opened his eyes, his scarlet eyes staring at Lawyer An, without speaking.

"How about this, when I regain my birthright and my strength recovers, we'll have a one-on-one duel and settle things with life or death?

I'm like this now; even if you kill me, you won't feel any pleasure, right?"

The baby spread his hands, and the mark on his forehead was actually slowly receding. At the same time, the black halo above his head was also slowly shrinking, and the aura on his body and the outline of that figure were also slowly fading.

He was withdrawing his power, and at the same time, he was feeling lonely.

Lawyer An finally felt relieved and whispered to Zhou Ze: "Boss, this is why I like making friends with honest people."

Zhou Ze was somewhat speechless.

At the same time, he felt a bit unreal.

So,

They weren't going to fight?

"An Buqi, I'll wait for the day you regain your birthright. I won't borrow his power to fight with you..."

Before the baby could finish speaking,

He suddenly heard a gloomy roar coming from the void:

"I smell the scent of blood, so much fresh blood, have I arrived in the mortal realm, have I arrived in the mortal realm, hahahahaha, I'm coming, I'm coming!

I'm hungry, I'm hungry, I'm really hungry!!!!!!"

The baby raised his head in astonishment, his face showing shock.

The halo, which had just been shrunk to the size of a fist and was about to dissipate,

Suddenly expanded several times at this time,

A furry arm stretched out from the halo.

At the same moment,

A strong excitement suddenly came from within Zhou Ze's body,

"Gate... keeper... dog..."

"Huh?"

"I... am... also... hungry..."

Zhou Ze reached out and patted his chest,

And said somewhat helplessly:

"Alright, I understand."
