Chapter 872 It shouldn’t be like this

Li Yuan split the earth with a sword, and the vast continent that was connected from then on turned into four independent lands, separated by the backflow of sea water. However, because of the laws of the Three Realms, they had a mysterious connection.

At the moment when Yuan Zun fell, somehow, all the living beings in the world felt it. It was as if the heart was stabbed with a knife, as if they had lost something extremely important.

People cried for no reason, unable to hide their sorrow. It was not until the disaster had long subsided and the continents that had been separated from each other began to interact with each other again that they realized...whose demise had caused all the sudden crying.

But in the world at this time, all living things only know how to be sad and cry, but they are empty, without reason or beginning, and extremely confused.

The Nameless Emperor left behind the three seriously injured and unconscious Anshan people and disappeared without a trace.

The Buddha God Emperor was beheaded by the sword light. The nine evil swords were overloaded and scattered all over the world, returning to a state of silence and hiding, which also foreshadowed... the death of the sword master.

......

The lonely soul walks between the broken mountains and rivers, with slow steps and complex and unspeakable meanings.

A guide from the underworld followed silently behind, with a sigh and emotion, as well as deep respect and awe on his hideous skull face.

"You Shiwu, what are you dawdling about? We are short-handed right now, are you trying to slack off?!"

Another underworld guide arrived, he was obviously very busy and looked tired, holding a soul-guiding flag and wearing a black underworld robe, leading countless bewildered souls behind him, most of which were severely mutilated.

"Shh-"

"Don't disturb that adult!"

The ghost guide named You Shiwu, whose face was as ferocious as an evil ghost, quickly raised a finger, as if he was afraid of disturbing the lonely soul walking in the broken mountains and rivers in front of him.

The Netherworld Guide who arrived later took a closer look and saw the guide book with a bloody name written on it in You Shiwu's hand. He was immediately frightened and broke out in a cold sweat.

"Yuan Zun Li Yuan?! Such a great man also wants to go to the underworld?!!!"

"How could he still be in the six realms of reincarnation!"

The Netherworld Guide was almost frightened to death and couldn't help but exclaim, but before You Shiwu could say anything, he immediately knelt down.

You Shiwu also turned his head and took a look. He was so frightened that his back felt cold and he immediately knelt down.

"I didn't mean to disturb you, I hope you can forgive me!"

The two Hades Immortals knelt down in fear, their faces filled with horror and awe, yet also with some respect and gratitude deep in their expressions.

It is well known that Anshan Li Yuan led his subordinates to resist the catastrophe and protect all living beings.

Let’s not talk about those major events in the past. All living beings and spirits know about them and will always remember the kindness.

This time, Dao Zun caused chaos and great terror came. As all living beings were crying, Yuan Zun responded to the suffering of all living beings and came out of the mountain to fight with his injuries. He fought with the Futu God Emperor who slaughtered all living beings, and died together with him after giving up everything he had!

How could they, as mere underworld immortals, not be shocked and respectful when they saw such a great man who had made great achievements and almost quelled a disaster in the chaotic world!

What made them even more terrified was that the name of this great man was still in the underworld. They didn't know whether it was the instruction of the Hades, so they quickly sent a "list" to the Hades Immortal to lead him back!

What a ghost! If the Hades wasn't his immediate superior, the Netherworld Guide who received this list would have wanted to rebel.

It's just a common immortal who guides the underworld, not much better than the nine-rank mountain and river gods in heaven. How can it guide the Source Lord into the underworld?

Is it crazy or is the Hades crazy?

When You Shiwu saw the bloody name on the reception list, his bones went weak and he almost collapsed with fright. After a long ideological struggle, he finally bit the bullet and came to find the remaining soul of Li Yuan.

However, it did not dare to urge him at all, and could only hang far behind, like a follower, silently waiting for the big shot to have a good time before talking about business...

I just don’t know what the soul of Lord Yuanzun has been searching for, what he is obsessed with, whether there is something extremely important left behind, or whether there is anything unfinished?

Although it could see that Li Yuan's soul had already lost its spiritual light and was gradually sinking into confusion, it still did not dare to offend him in the slightest. His status and merits were there, and no one could stop him...

Now, his companions came to hold him accountable, disturbing the soul that was silently walking in the broken mountains and rivers. You Shiwu was truly frightened and worried about being held accountable.

The two Hades Immortals knelt down tremblingly, not daring to raise their heads at all.

However, they did not encounter any oppression. The souls with a little confusion in their eyes just looked at them silently, and then continued to trek through the broken and lifeless mountains and rivers with a look of doubt.

The figure looked somewhat lonely, walking in the gradually dimming light of sunset, feeling unreal, uncertain, confused and uneasy.

"Home, where is my home..."

The blood-stained soul murmured, as if trying to find the homeland that it was most familiar with in its lifetime, but was blocked by the vast ruined mountains and rivers. It was confused and could not find the direction to return home.

For some reason, You Shiwu felt a lump in his nose and his eyes couldn't help but turn red.

Family!

It turned out that Anshan Li Yuan just wanted to go home, just like the millions of mortal beings who had passed away, his soul still had obsessions and wanted to go back home to take a look, that's all!

"Please do it for me for a while. I really can't bear to see such a tragic end for such a person!"

"He just wanted to go home and take a look. For a dignified Yuan Zun, this simple wish... no matter what the cause and effect, any punishment... I, You Shiwu, will accept it!"

The Netherworld Guide, You Shiwu, said with gritted teeth.

"Your duty is to guide people within a hundred miles of this place, but the journey to Anshan is millions of miles, which is a huge violation of the rules!"

The companion who was also the guide of the underworld whispered admonitions, but there was respect and pity in his eyes as he looked at the illusory figure of Li Yuan stumbling in the broken and silent mountains and rivers.

Although the underworld has collapsed and there is indeed a shortage of manpower, they really don't understand why the dignified Yuan Zun, one of the top powerful people and a man of great merit in the world, ended up being so "ignored".

Could it be that Lord Hades intended to let him go through the complete process of reincarnation, without any special treatment and everything must be done according to the rules?

But what is the point of doing so?

"No matter what, a person like this shouldn't end up like this!"

"I, You Shiwu, am just a small underworld immortal. I can't understand the thoughts of those big shots, but this should never be the case!"

"If it weren't for this Yuan Zun, countless innocent lives would have died in the Three Realms, and the six realms of reincarnation would have been completely overturned! Now in this human world, whether it's immortals, gods, demons, or countless living beings who are able to survive, they all owe him a favor!"

"I'm going to do what I can. I'm going to send this adult home to have a look!"

You Shiwu said this firmly, his eyes filled with admiration and respect for Yuanzun Li Yuan.

The companion stopped trying to stop him and just sighed:

"Now that the Naihe Bridge has collapsed, all the Yellow Springs Roads are filled with souls, and the Wangxiang Terrace is also overcrowded, and everywhere is a mess. Alas... you are right. No matter what, if you and I have the energy to fulfill such a simple wish, we should make it come true."

You Shiwu nodded, handed the soul-guiding flag in his hand to his companion, and followed carefully.

It silently came to the side of the confused soul, bowed, and looked respectful.

"My Lord... I dare to lead you home."

The extremely unreal soul stopped subconsciously and nodded in a daze.
