Chapter 813 Lantern Festival
Cui Jingyan obviously noticed that her mother Xue Huaning seemed a little unhappy.
She couldn't help but ask: "Mom, father, shouldn't he have encountered something difficult?"
Xue Huaning shook his head and said: "In this Purple City, who dares to run wild on our territory? But..."
Speaking of this, a coldness appeared in the eyes of the beautiful and gentle Qianjue Spirit Emperor, "The guests your father entertained today are not good ones."
Cui Jingyan suddenly remembered that when he returned home, Tao Bo had said that his father was entertaining guests from the three ancient tribes of Qu, Hong and Tantai.
Undoubtedly, the guests of these three ancient tribes are not good-natured! !
At this time, Xue Huaning suddenly looked at Su Yi and said, "Mr. Su, if possible, I hope you and Jing Yan will go to the Beiwang Pavilion with me."
Su Yi nodded.
He just wanted to meet the current leader of the Cui clan, "Cui Changan"!
"Mother, how can we help by going to Beiwang Pavilion?"
Cui Jingyan was a little confused.
"You can go and watch the excitement."
Xue Huaning said, looking at the old blind man, and said apologetically: "Your identity is too special. If you are recognized, I am afraid it will cause unnecessary trouble for you, so I can only let you wait here."
The old blind man nodded and said: "Senior is considering it, I understand."
Immediately, Xue Huaning left Songfeng Pavilion with Su Yi and Cui Jingyan.
…
Beiwang Pavilion.
The place where the Cui family chief entertains distinguished guests.
At this time, many figures were already sitting in the huge hall decorated with ancient style.
Cui Chang'an, the leader of the Cui clan, sits on the central seat.
He wears a high hat and ancient clothes, has a flowing willow beard, has a calm demeanor, and is not angry but confident.
As the leader of the Cui clan, Cui Changan is not only a "big man" that millions of people in Purple City can only look up to, but also one of the few overlords in the entire Six Paths Kingdom.
But at this time, he frowned and remained silent.
On both sides of the hall, there were many figures sitting.
They are guests from the three ancient clans of Qu, Hong and Tantai.
These three ancient tribes are entrenched in different boundaries of the Six Realms. They are all extremely ancient and powerful.
For example, the Qu family was in charge of the "Hell Division", one of the Six Daosi Divisions, a long time ago. The old antique "Blood Desolate Ming Zun" of their clan was listed among the "Six Nether Deities" together with Cui Longxiang.
The ancestors of the Hong family were the leaders of the "Evil Ghost Division" a long time ago.
The ancestor of the Tantai family was the leader of the "Animal Division".
It can be said that the powerful men of the three ancient tribes here can all be regarded as the first-class dignitaries in the Kingdom of Six Paths.
It is precisely because of this that he deserves to be received personally by Cui Changan, the leader of the Cui clan.
An ordinary person would probably not be able to see Cui Changan at all.
At this time, the atmosphere in the hall was very strange.
As the host, Cui Changan frowned and remained silent.
The guests from the three ancient tribes seemed very leisurely and at ease, chatting about some innocuous topics.
When Xue Huaning arrived with Su Yi and Cui Jingyan, they saw such a scene.
"Madam, why did you bring Jingyan with you?"
Sitting on the main seat in the center, Cui Changan was startled, especially when he saw a strange young man in green robes following Cui Jingyan, a trace of doubt could not help but appear on his brows.
"When the girl grows up, it's time for her to gain experience."
Xue Huaning said

, had gone straight to the side of the central seat, and said to Su Yi and Cui Jingyan, "You two can sit wherever you like."
Then, this gentle and dignified woman turned around and glanced at the guests with cold eyes.
"Everyone is welcome. From now on, there is no need to say any more unnecessary greetings. Just tell me your reasons for coming."
"If I can make the decision, I will give you an answer. If I can't make the decision, I will come up with an idea together with my husband."
Xue Huaning's tone was cold and stern, every word was sonorous, and there was no sloppiness.
At this time, she seemed to have changed, and her whole body was filled with an awe-inspiring aura of majesty.
The guests present here all felt awe in their hearts.
In the Kingdom of Six Paths, everyone knows that in the Cui clan, the most difficult person to offend is not the clan leader Cui Changan, but his wife Xue Huaning!
This Qianjue Spiritual Emperor had served as the river-crossing envoy in the Meng Po Palace a long time ago. He held a high position and had an astonishing reputation. He looked gentle and gentle on the outside, but his behavior was tough and fierce.
In the past years, countless enemies have died in her hands.
It wasn't until after marrying Cui Changan that Qianjue Spirit Emperor gradually stopped showing up, but her existence made no one dare to ignore her.
Even Su Yi couldn't help but secretly praise him. He admired Xue Huaning's posture at this moment. He was crisp, strong and stern. He was worthy of the role that he once served as the river crossing envoy of Meng Po Palace.
Cui Changan and Cui Jingyan were both very calm and were not surprised by this.
The father and daughter naturally understand Xue Huaning's temperament better than anyone else.
"Fellow Daoist Xue, I have already told Fellow Daoist Cui about our purpose of coming. If you..."
Sitting on the left side of the table, an old man with childish face and white hair, wearing a yellow robe, spoke calmly.
However, before he could finish speaking, Xue Huaning interrupted: "I want to hear it from your own mouth again."
The guests from the three major ancient tribes here all frowned.
Especially the old man in yellow robe, his face became gloomy after being interrupted. He looked at Cui Changan and said, "Fellow Daoist Cui thinks so too?"
Cui Changan smiled and said: "When we talked about things before, I didn't stop to understand it too clearly. It would be great if you could repeat it again."
The old man in yellow robe was silent for a moment and said: "That's alright, let me talk first."
He looked at Xue Huaning and said expressionlessly: "The purpose of our Qu family's visit is very simple. I hope the Cui family can agree to let our Qu family go to the ruins of the Judgment Department."
Ruins of the Judgment Department!
Su Yi raised his eyebrows slightly. Could it be that this old guy had found out information about that treasure?
Eternally ago, the Cui family controlled the Judgment Division and had a higher status than the Six Daos Division. However, with the destruction of the underworld, the original Judgment Division has long since become history.
The ruins of the Judgment Department were originally a world-famous prison. In ancient times, all the characters imprisoned there were terrifying beings who were considered most dangerous at that time.
There are all-powerful demons, there are monsters that run rampant in the world, and there are extremely vicious evil lords...
There is no shortage of emperors!
However, the ruins of the Adjudication Department today are no longer what they used to be, and they are no longer a prison for criminals.
But Su Yi knew that even though endless years had passed, there was another mystery in the ruins of the Adjudication Department, which was still controlled by the Cui family!
The most important thing is that in his previous life, Su Yi suppressed a treasure inside!
But now, the Qu clan of the ancient clan actually wants to decide the ruins of the Judgment Division. How can Su Yi not care about this?
Then Xue Huaning said coldly: "If you agree, let me, Mr. Cui, come in."
(This chapter is not finished, please turn the page)
After entering your Qu family's "Secret Realm of Blood City", I can agree to your proposal now. "
The face of the old man in yellow robe suddenly turned ugly, and he said: "Fellow Daoist Xue, what you said is a bit too much. The secret realm of Blood City is the important place of my Qu family. How can we allow outsiders to enter?"
"You also know it's too much?"
Xue Huaning's eyes showed a trace of disdain and said, "If your Qu family won't agree to it, our Cui family won't agree to it either!"
The words are strong and cannot be disobeyed.
The old man in yellow robe was immediately angry. He looked at Cui Changan and said, "Is this what Patriarch Cui means?"
Cui Changan smiled and said: "I am an indecisive person. On such big issues of right and wrong, I always follow my wife's ideas."
The face of the old man in yellow robe became more and more gloomy, and he said: "It won't be long before the Lantern Festival is coming. Without Lord Judgment Mingzun sitting in charge, your Cui family... aren't you worried about unpredictable changes?"
There was a hint of threat in his words.
Halloween?
Su Yi counted with his fingers and realized that there was only about a month left before the Thousand Lantern Festival held once every thousand years in the Six Realms Kingdom.
The so-called Ten Thousand Lanterns Festival is a grand ceremony held in the underworld every thousand years.
The start time of this Dharma conference is July 15th.
In other worlds, this day is called the Ghost Festival or the Ghost Festival.
In the eyes of Buddhism, it is the Menglan Pen Festival.
The Lantern Festival, which happens once every thousand years, kicks off on this day!
At that time, the world will be plunged into eternal darkness, and the moon in the netherworld will be obscured by a strange force. At the same time, all kinds of terrifying and turbulent scenes will be staged in the major territories of the netherworld.
For example, countless ancient undead will emerge from the five ghost gates...
The dangerous forbidden area "City of Wasted Death" will lose order and fall into chaos and turmoil.
Above the vast river of guilt and blood, the gate to hell will appear...
Many evil and unknown forces will emerge in the darkness of eternal night.
Because of this, when this day comes every thousand years, all the spiritual forces in the world will use their power to light the "Dao Sky Lantern" and hang it high above the night to dispel the darkness and resist and resolve all kinds of weird and unknown terrifying forces. .
At that time, all over the world in the underworld, sky lanterns are like stars, covering the night sky, so it is called the "Festival of Ten Thousand Lanterns".
It is worth mentioning that Purple City was originally the location of the Adjudication Department, and was also regarded as the execution ground of the underworld. Over the years, it has eliminated countless terrifying entities.
So much so that whenever the Lantern Festival comes, there will be more sinister and ominous forces around Ziluo City than anywhere else, making the danger that Ziluo City faces even greater.
However, in the past years, because of the presence of the Cui family, Ziluo City was able to avoid danger and survive until this day.
But things are different now.
Cui Longxiang, who is regarded as the Cui clan's sea-fixing needle, has already gone to the Sea of Bitterness and is not in Ziluo City!
"No wonder the Qu family dared to make such an excessive request. It turned out that they wanted to take advantage of the time before the Lantern Festival to take advantage of the Cui family..."
Su Yi vaguely understood.
"What does it mean that Lord Mingzun is not in charge of the ruling? Does it mean that my grandfather is not in the clan now? Even when the Lantern Festival comes, he will not return?"
Cui Jingyan was shocked and her pretty face changed slightly.
At this time, the girl also realized that some kind of change had probably happened within the clan, which made people from the Qu family dare to come to the Cui family to cause trouble!
