She gently sighed. “There is nothing fun in this world. There are too many average humans and too few smart people.”
The fake Celestial Master Zuo sighed. “The reason why the lower bound is known as lower bound is that there are too many dumb people. It is unlike the upper bound that is full of spiritual experts. It makes Fairy Queen Li very bored.”
Gu Xijiu clenched her fist. That bastard! How could he use the name of Celestial Master Zuo to be so servile to the people from the upper bound? He was not hesitant to jeopardize the reputation of Celestial Master Zuo!
Li Mengxia also trembled with anger. She slammed her fist on the window frame! Her most admired person is Celestial Master Zuo, so how could she not be angry to see this scene? This bastard destroyed the reputation of Celestial Master Zuo! She did not even dare to look at Di Fuyi’s face. The real Celestial Master Zuo must be feeling very sad seeing all these scenes.
Gu Xijiu tightly held Di Fuyi’s hand and talked to him through directed audio. “Don’t be sad. We will think of a way to restore your reputation in the future…”
Di Fuyi looked cold as he stared at the scene that was unfolding below the restaurant. He glanced at the fake Celestial Master Zuo and smiled ironically.
Finally, the marching team had passed. The restaurant and the street were bustling once more.
No one discussed further regarding the marching team of Celestial Master Zuo that had just passed. In fact, everyone was secretly angry with him, and they looked at the direction of the marching team with burning anger and hatred.
The people had been discontented for a very long time. They were merely suppressing their anger and waiting for the right opportunity to seek their revenge.
…
The walls surrounding the palace were even higher than the palace itself and was red. There was some strange pattern on the walls that looked like a spell and skulls. The top of the wall was covered in a thick fog. Anyone who got close to the wall would feel chilly and cold.
“Master, these walls are very strange. We would be trapped in the fog as soon as we enter the palace area. There is a possibility that we might get lost. Furthermore, there are numerous strange shadows in the fog. If a person touches the shadows, they would be stuck to the shadow and melt instantly. It’s impossible to escape the shadow…” Li Mengxia shared her experience from the several explorations that she had with her followers. “Many of our people are scared of this place…”
Di Fuyi nodded slightly. He took two steps forward and used his finger to touch the wall. It was freezing like ice and was cold enough to send shivers down someone’s spine.
Suddenly he cursed angrily. “Wall of Sorrows!”
Li Mengxia was surprised. “What is that?!”
Gu Xijiu beside him continued, “The fake guy had hired a hundred thousand laborers to build this building. It was said that they had suddenly vanished when the palace was done. However, the truth was that they had been killed and buried within these walls. The laborers must have been tortured very badly before they died, and so they had a great resentment, which created these grieving walls. The shadows that you have encountered in the fog should be the spirits of the laborers. They must have been trapped in this world due to the great resentment that they have and are unable to find peace.”
Li Mengxia’s face changed. She had heard about the missing hundred thousand laborers. She thought that they were being locked up somewhere but never expected that they had been buried within the walls!
It was tragic that those laborers had met a horrible death. After all, they were human beings. It seemed like the fake guy did not care about human lives. He was even crueler than Emperor Shi!
“Is there any way to enter the place? Can we perform a ceremony to help the spirits trapped in the wall to find peace?” Li Mengxia asked.
Di Fuyi answered, “There is no doubt that I can help them. However, the people inside will be aware of it as soon as start the ceremony, and it would raise their suspicions.”
Gu Xijiu pulled up her sleeves and said, “Let me teleport into the place!” Her teleportation technique would not be constraint by the wall.
Di Fuyi stopped her. “No!”
He pulled her to his side and then he looked at Li Mengxia. “Do you want to help me save Mu Feng and the others?”
