"Tongyou!"
laugh--
It was as if my soul had traveled between heaven and earth.
My feet felt light and my body seemed to have lost its weight.
The world before my eyes instantly turned pitch black.
He began to sink, his consciousness compressing within the cramped space...
Until a halo appeared in his line of sight, as if beckoning to him, he was drawn towards it.
When he came to his senses, Su Feng found himself once again in that familiar yet unfamiliar area.
Underworld.
Of course, this statement is not entirely accurate. So far, the place where Su Feng is standing is one end of the Bridge of Broken Souls.
Only by crossing this bridge can one truly reach the underworld.
That place is a realm that no human can set foot in.
It is a terrifying place filled with death, resentment, malevolence, evil, and yin energy.
Below the bridge lies a deep abyss, where the faint sound of waves crashing can be heard.
What wafted up was an indescribable smell.
Although it wasn't his first time here, Su Feng still felt uncomfortable all over.
"Master Su..."
A faint voice drifted into his ears, and Su Feng looked up.
In the middle of the bridge, the white-faced ghost messenger stood at the edge, waving.
This is the whisper of a demon, and also like a trap that leads to death.
But since we're already here, let's make the best of it and have nothing to fear.
Without hesitation, Su Feng strode onto the Bridge of Broken Souls and headed towards the white-faced ghost messenger.
163 This was the first time he had crossed the Bridge of Broken Souls...
I don't know how deep or how long this bridge is.
Halfway there, they were blocked by the white mist ahead, and even with their spiritual energy and full concentration, they could not see into it.
"That's enough..."
The pale-faced ghost turned his back and said in a low voice.
"Don't we need to go in?" Su Feng squinted and asked softly.
He thought this trip was to the underworld.

Chapter 257 The Order of the Underworld Messengers! Ghost Messengers of the Mortal Realm?
Smoke swirls above the Bridge of Broken Souls.
The pervasive atmosphere instilled a chilling sense of dread.
The white-faced ghost guard stopped halfway through the fog, and then several figures slowly emerged from the mist.
It seemed to grow out of the ground itself, ghostly and invisible...
Their shapes gradually became clear as the smoke gathered.
They are similar to the White-Faced Ghost Messengers, dressed in black robes and holding white fans, but each has its own distinct appearance.
The aura emanating from their bodies also varies in strength.
Su Feng frowned slightly, also looking somewhat confused.
Why did so many ghost messengers appear at the same time?
After the ghost messenger appeared, he slowly walked to the side of the white-faced ghost messenger and communicated with him in the common language of the underworld.
They seemed to be discussing something very important, and the expressions on each of the ghost messengers' faces were exceptionally solemn.
Perhaps having reached a conclusion, the pale-faced ghost turned around and looked at Su Feng.
"Young Master Su... the reason we're teaching you this time is that we have some things we'd like to ask for your help with."
Its voice was soft, but every word was full of power.
Su Feng raised an eyebrow and chuckled, "I guessed it a long time ago, it's related to the escape of the ten thousand ghosts, isn't it?"
The ghost messengers fell silent, perhaps because Su Feng had hit the nail on the head.
"...It was indeed our negligence that allowed our underlings to take advantage of the situation, leading to the breaches in various places and resulting in this predicament."
The white-faced ghost spoke in a calm tone.
It's such an important matter, yet it doesn't seem to be in any hurry at all.
"The higher-ups are furious about this and have ordered us to capture the ghosts as soon as possible and not to disrupt the order of the mortal realm."
This is also their job as ghost messengers.
To ensure the balance between Yin and Yang.
This escape of all the ghosts has brought them unprecedented trouble.
The minor ghosts are not worth mentioning, but the remaining vengeful ghosts and ghost generals are all extremely evil spirits with boundless resentment. They will definitely find living people to take their place when they escape to the mortal world.
If left unchecked, not only Renjia Town, but also more than a dozen surrounding towns and villages will likely suffer annihilation.
So, out of desperation, it remembered that Su Feng existed.
When Su Feng used the Netherworld Path to Descend to the Underworld, it sensed that this young man possessed extraordinary abilities and was a powerful being!
This crisis might be something that can be handed over to this person to resolve.
"Then why don't you go look for them?" Su Feng said with his arms crossed and a faint smile. "With your strength, those ghosts are no problem at all."
All ghosts are suppressed by ghost messengers; this has essentially become a natural law.
So he was also puzzled as to why this person had come to him.
The ghost messengers looked at each other, seemingly in a dilemma.
The pale-faced ghost messenger spoke up, "This matter is of great importance and involves many aspects. It needs to be handled by one person to ensure fairness and impartiality..."
Su Feng didn't quite understand much of what was being said in those cryptic words.
but……
He already had the answer in his heart.
The rules of the underworld are very special and complicated.
The task of each ghost messenger is basically to manage their own area, and the most taboo thing is to cross the line.
This means that now that all the ghosts have fled and are disrupting the order of the human world, even the ghost messengers dare not easily break this rule.
Even if the ghosts wreak havoc in the neighboring town and slaughter countless people, they will not interfere to resolve the issue as long as it is not within their jurisdiction.
Therefore, the ghosts, upon learning of this unwritten rule, became rampant, leaving the ghost messengers helpless.
That's probably why they came looking for me.
Nothing more...
I did owe the White-Faced Ghost Messenger a favor before.
Now that it has come to me for help, it's not my style to stand by and do nothing.
Su Feng pursed his lips and agreed, "Consider it repaying a favor to you."
Anyway, it's always good to have a good relationship with the ghost messengers.
"Young Master Su is truly righteous," the pale-faced ghost messenger said gratefully.
But it remained expressionless, showing no sign of happiness.
Then, it took out a token from its pocket and handed it to Su Feng.
"This is the Underworld Messenger's Token. With this token, you are an underworld messenger in the mortal realm! You have the same authority as us!"
Su Feng looked thoughtfully at the token in his hand, then suddenly smiled.
He did understand the true meaning behind it.
With this underworld messenger's token, one can then deal with powerful ghosts without holding back and act with impunity.
Even if you destroy its soul, it won't diminish your virtue.
This could also be considered the "authority" mentioned by the white-faced ghost messenger.
"Of course, we will also take good care of our respective territories, but the rest is up to Young Master Su."
The white-faced ghost messengers bowed and greeted the team.
This agreement is thus concluded.
Su Feng didn't say anything more. After nodding in acknowledgment, he left the Bridge of Broken Souls and returned to the mortal realm.
As soon as the person left, the group of ghost messengers began to discuss among themselves.
"Wouldn't it break the rules to entrust this to a living person?"
"If the higher-ups find out, none of us will have a good time..."
The pale-faced ghost looked in the direction where Su (De Wang Zhao) Feng had left, narrowed his eyes, and slowly said, "Perhaps only he can solve this matter."
