Chapter 817 Promise not to disclose
Although she thought so in her heart, Li Xixi certainly couldn't say it out loud.
"Hu Li, shut your stinky mouth and get out of the way. Let's go to Qilong Mountain and find that Lingxuzi."
"If you continue to be stubborn, then the only thing waiting for you is death."
"Hahaha--"
Hu Li's wild laughter could be heard from the darkness.
"You think I was brought up by being scared? I've already thoroughly investigated the identities of the three of you."
"Since you have come to the Red Mansion today, no one of you can leave. Just stay here and become a wronged soul under tight control."
Seeing the other party say these words with a mocking laugh, Li Xixi was shaking with anger.
"Yile, quickly lock onto the other party's location. I want to know where she is and then take revenge—"
Hearing Li Xixi's angry question, Chen Yile shook his head: "If you want to find her, you'd better wait a while. She is not here at the moment."
"What? Not here? Did he use the Thousand Miles Sound Transmission just now?"
Chen Yile waved his hand: "Right now, the entire Red Mansion, inside and outside, is under her control. There is no such thing as transmitting sound over a thousand miles."
"It's just that no matter where she is, as long as we are in this red building, she will be able to clearly know our every move."
Hu Li, who was standing in front of the bronze mirror and looking at the images transmitted from it, had a look of surprise on her face.
She immediately muttered to herself in shock.
"This Chen Yile is really good. I like you more and more."
As she said this, she stretched out her long nails and tapped on the bronze tea table next to her, looking eagerly at Chen Yile in the bronze mirror.
"Little man, I have so many businessmen here, why is there no one like you..."
Although there was a ray of light in the dark secret room, it flickered.
Yan Zhen, who was standing by, suddenly suggested, "Since that old witch Hu Li isn't here and is hiding, we can only sabotage her."
"Yile, next, we must muster the courage to burn our boats. As long as we destroy this red building, Hu Li will definitely be furious. She might even jump up right away..."
Hearing the suggestion from his companion next to him, Chen Yile nodded.
Just now he was paying close attention to the situation in this pool of wronged souls.
Since this place is located on the third floor, it is an obstacle that cannot be avoided once you want to explore this red building.
A golden thunder shot up into the sky, then struck down fiercely towards the pool of wronged souls.
After a bang, golden lightning flashed continuously.
"The thunder strike just now killed many wronged souls, but it didn't kill them all?" Chen Yile looked puzzled.
Yan Zhen, standing by, looked incredulous: "Yile, with the powerful attack power of your Golden Thunder Spell, shouldn't you have wiped them all out?"
Li Xixi, who was standing by, also widened her eyes. "Yan Zhen, don't blame Chen Yile for now. It's not that his Golden Thunder Spell is ineffective, but that there's something strange about these wronged souls."
Yan Zhen obviously didn't believe this, but after taking a look, he couldn't help but widen his eyes.
He discovered that the same wronged souls were still in the pool, and there was no decrease in number.
Yan Zhen was also surprised: "How is it possible that this pool of wronged souls actually gathers 36 wronged souls?"
Li Xixi's breathing was rapid. "Where did Hu Li collect so many wronged souls? Thirty-six of them, in total."
Seeing his two partners with the same shocked expressions, Chen Yile didn't think there was anything to worry about.
"What's the big deal? It's just 36 wronged souls. What's the big deal?"
Hearing that Chen Yile didn't care, Li Xixi hurried to explain.
"Yile, you don't understand the rules of the underworld. According to underworld legend, as long as 36 wronged souls are gathered, the resentment can be condensed to the maximum."
"What? There are such rules in the underworld?"
Chen Yile's eyes also widened.
Yan Zhen nodded: "This legend is only circulated in the underworld, and people in the world of the living don't know about it."
After hearing their explanation, Chen Yile immediately understood what was going on.
No wonder he, as an Onmyoji, didn't know that gathering the power of 36 wronged souls could cause such great resentment.
The reason why the underworld controls this news or statement is that once this news is leaked to the human world and used by people with ulterior motives, it will be a complete disaster.
No wonder I couldn’t break through this layer of resentment even though I used the Golden Thunder Spell just now. It turns out there is such a saying.
Seeing that Chen Yile didn't say anything, Li Xixi continued to explain: "You should know that 36 wronged souls include various situations."
"According to the legend in the underworld, if you can gather 36 wronged souls, you will create a powerful wish force. I didn't expect Hu Li to know this and bring out 36 wronged souls."
Yan Zhen, standing by, was filled with worry. "Needless to say, this must be that bastard Ling Xuzi's fault. He's the one who did this."
Chen Yile nodded. "Since this rumor is only known in the underworld, and Ling Xuzi is planning to disrupt the order of the underworld, and Hu Li is Ling Xuzi's guardian, he will definitely tell you everything he knows about the taboos in the underworld."
"After all, the more powerful his guardians are, the greater his safety will be."
After figuring this out, Chen Yile was still full of doubts.
"I don't know what kind of terrifying effect you hear in the underworld, just gathering 36 wronged souls can achieve."
Chen Yile saw all of Yan Zhen and Li Xixi's reactions just now.
However, he was not clear about the wishes of the 36 wronged souls. In order to break the pool of 36 resentful souls, he had to know the relevant situation.
Only when you know yourself and the enemy can you fight without danger.
After asking this question, Chen Yile found that his two partners were speechless, which made him frown.
"I'm saying, what's going on with you two? As employees of the underworld, please don't let down your guard at this critical moment. Tell us about this situation in detail and stop hiding it."
What Chen Yile said was not wrong. After all, Li Xixi was the daughter of King Chujiang.
And Yan Zhen is a close confidant of King Yama.
After seeing what he said, the two partners looked at each other and no one spoke. Chen Yile knew where the problem lay.
"Don't worry, I swear to heaven that I will never spread this matter. Even if I return to the mortal world, I will not tell anyone about it."
Just now, Chen Yile felt that these two partners did not want to talk about the situation of these 36 wronged souls because they were afraid that they would spread this matter after returning to the world of the living.
Once the truth is known to the Onmyoji with ulterior motives, he might do something evil.
It is understandable that the other party thinks so.
Seeing that Chen Yile still wanted to swear, Yan Zhen felt a little amused.
