Helian Wei Wei’s fingers stiffened upon hearing that.

She had a premonition that she would leave her body shell one day.

Helian Wei Wei already felt uneasy when she was asked to return her body repeatedly in the dream.

However, she never thought that the day would come so soon.

She just promised Baili Jia Jue to accompany him for a drink not long ago.

She did not expect to be in hell in such a short time...

Helian Wei Wei looked around, her voice was firm and cool, “Anyway, let’s get out of here first.”

She never liked to stand somebody up. Also, she would never want to see that person getting disappointed because he had a very strong personality.

Living in darkness, he never portrayed many expressions and he was always scheming. He always put on an elegant yet evil smile even when he was angry, which made people think that he was indestructible.

But Helian Wei Wei knew that he would get upset too.

He would smile forcefully whenever he was unhappy as he did today when he was suspected of murder by his own father in the Great Hall...

Therefore, she must get out of here no matter what!

“Wei Wei, remember that you must not drink the soup if someone asks you to. Just turn around if you went in the wrong direction, and stay low.” Yuan Ming lowered his voice and said, “The most important thing is not to let anyone find out that you are a living spirit.”

Helian Wei Wei nodded and walked sideways through a door. What she then saw were the ox-headed and horse-faced demons leading a group of people while walking toward the arch bridge.

The bridge was made of stones. It looked very ordinary, yet there was unusual darkness compared to what was expected in the human world.

Everyone walking on the bridge was wearing long robes. They had no chains on their limbs, and they had no expression on their faces. They looked like wandering ghosts without any emotions.

There was an old woman with arched back holding a bowl in her hands near the entrance of the bridge. Her face was not visible and she was handing out bowls of soup.

“It’s Grandma Meng.” Yuan Ming lowered its gaze. “Don’t go there. They will ask you to drink the soup and cross the bridge if they see you. You can never go back once you cross the bridge and enter the reincarnation path. You must avoid their sight from now on and go to your right. There should be a trial hall and there will be an exit to the human world at the first level.”

Helian Wei Wei followed Yuan Ming’s advice and tried to hide in the darkness, which was an easy task for her because the dead souls in hell were all staring forward and they did not move their sight at all. This gave Helian Wei Wei a good chance to hide from them.

The real challenge was the ox-headed and horse-faced demons as their eyes have never been idle from the beginning. Both their eyes were flickering with demonic redness. They did not forget to chatter away while they scanned around. Helian Wei Wei did not understand what they were talking about.

“They are speaking in ghost language.” Yuan Ming listened carefully. “The man who wants to take your soul used the formation to blur out the boundary between the Underworld and the human world. He caused their workload to increase a lot.”

“It’s not that simple, they seem to be really irritated,” Helian Wei Wei said as she took a glance.

“Well, aside from blurring the boundaries, it seems like that man intended to open the main gates of hell and release all the evil spirits from the eighteen layers of hell.” Yuan Ming chuckled evilly, “It’s a bold and interesting idea. What’s more, he will need your help in it.”

Helian Wei Wei said while raising her eyebrow, “My help?”

“The Exorcism Seal which was placed in the Divine Mainland previously can only be removed by the blood of an exorcist’s successor, which is your blood.” Yuan Ming’s expression was still evil when it was talking, “Don’t underestimate your blood. You can even open the gates of hell if you use it well.”

Helian Wei Wei narrowed her eyes, “My will tells me that I don’t want to walk around here and meet ghosts.”

“Clearly, your own will doesn’t matter.” Yuan Ming drifted two steps forward, almost knocking into the ox-headed demon who was escorting a soul.

Fortunately, Helian Wei Wei was fast enough to drag it back!

The ox-headed demon was not easy to bluff. It turned around and looked at the dark side of the cave.

Helian Wei Wei and Yuan Ming held their breaths while hiding in the dark.

The ox-headed demon’s strange big eyes twirled as it approached them slowly...

“What’s the matter?” The horse-faced demon standing next to it reached out and stopped it.

The ox-headed demon did not speak, it drew out its knife and stabbed toward Helian Wei Wei’s direction, without any result. It then replied, “Nothing, I thought someone came in.”

“Who would have the guts to enter the Underworld?” The horse-faced demon laughed disapprovingly.

The ox-headed demon licked its lips. “If someone enters, he will be our dinner.”

“Stop dreaming, just continue with your work. The king of hell’s son is full of anger today. Neither of us will have a good meal if you don’t send these ghosts back to their original positions.” The horse-faced demon dragged the chains and left after dropping this sentence.

The ox-headed demon was still hesitating, hence it turned around in a circle in the dark before it left.

Then, Helian Wei Wei walked out and recovered her normal breathing.

According to Yuan Ming, the ox-headed and horse-faced demons had no effect on humans, but souls would follow them automatically and involuntarily once they locked eyes.

This was also the reason why the ox-headed and horse-faced demons were responsible for drawing souls in the human world when humans were about to die. action

She finally passed this stage without any danger.

Walking to the far right, the bridge was not visible anymore and her sight was getting clearer. There were fire torches everywhere on the stone walls, casting shadows that floated on the ground.

“That’s the first trial hall, but it’s difficult to get past it.” Yuan Ming’s voice was blanketed, perhaps because they were in hell.

Helian Wei Wei leaned against a wall stealthily and poked out her head. She stared at a huge creature not far away from her.

The huge creature looked like a large-sized dog with a very fierce look from afar, it looked like a Tibetan Mastiff breed.

Helian Wei Wei always liked dogs, but she just could not make herself like this one.

It had two heads. Each of them looked odd while exposing its fangs.

They had magma-like red eyes and hair as thick as tides. There was also a pungent smell similar to sulfuric acid.

“Is this the legendary hellhound?” Helian Wei Wei narrowed her eyes.

Yuan Ming looked back and asked with astonishment, “How do you know that?”

“It’s written in the books, it is said to be the watchmen of hell. It appears at night with the purpose of nibbling on bodies that were freshly buried into the earth. The living will die inexplicably the next day if they see it with their own eyes.” Helian Wei Wei quirked up the corners of her mouth, “I did not expect that this creature actually exists...”
