Journey to the West: Man in heaven, working nine to five

#1457 - Xihe: Your Majesty, welcome back...

Chu Hao's hair stood on end, his entire being electrified, a chill running from the top of his head to the soles of his feet!

What the hell was going on?

What was that sound!

Chu Hao abruptly turned around, his eyes wide with terror.

That feeling just now was not an illusion!

Turning back, Chu Hao discovered that all the corpses had changed their posture!

They were all kneeling respectfully on the ground, facing the direction of the imperial throne!

Chu Hao's entire being exploded!

Alive?!

Conscious?

Reanimation?

Moreover, 'We respectfully welcome Your Majesty's triumphant return…' What does that mean?

Where is His Majesty?

Emperor Jun? Or the Eastern Emperor Taiyi?

The imperial throne is clearly empty!

Could it be… because of my arrival?

Chu Hao was completely numb, feeling like his brain couldn't process everything.

What relationship do I have with the two demon emperors?

Impossible!

Perhaps, it's not entirely impossible…

No, I'm just a small immortal who cultivated in the mortal realm. How could I have any demon bloodline in me?

Chu Hao felt his brain buzzing. If these demon corpses were to all come back to life, not only would Chu Hao not be able to leave here alive today,

But the Three Realms and Six Paths would probably be flattened directly by this endless demon horde!

Chu Hao stared intently at those corpses, his gaze sweeping over the three thousand demon powerhouse corpses, not missing a single detail.

However, even though Chu Hao's eyes saw the boundless palace, even the floating dust was clearly visible, but…

There was no sign of any movement.

The corpses of the three thousand demon powerhouses seemed to have always been like that, kneeling there…

This made Chu Hao even more terrified. They moved, but he couldn't detect it at all. Even though Chu Hao was a Fifth-Rank Quasi-Saint, capable of discerning the slightest detail, he still couldn't see any trace of it.

Chu Hao took a deep breath, steadied himself, and his strong mental fortitude allowed him to instantly regain his composure.

From the corpses, Chu Hao couldn't see anything unusual.

Turning back to look at the imperial throne, Chu Hao discovered an extremely strange thing.

The two sides of the imperial throne were originally empty, but at this moment, two graceful figures had appeared.

When Chu Hao saw the figure on the left, his eyes widened and his pupils shrank sharply.

It was an extremely beautiful woman, and she was also radiating the brilliance of the sun. A sentence flashed through Chu Hao's mind for a moment:

"Outside the Southeast Sea, between the Gan River, there is the country of Xihe. There is a woman named Xihe, who bathes the sun in the Gan Abyss. Xihe is the wife of Emperor Jun, and she gave birth to ten suns."

That was, Xihe's corpse?!

However, upon closer inspection, Chu Hao suddenly felt that something was wrong.

How could Xihe's face be so familiar?

It looked almost exactly like Fairy Nishang!

Impossible, absolutely impossible!

Don't tell me that Fairy Nishang is the reincarnation of Xihe, a cliché story like that, and don't tell me some nonsense about me being the reincarnation of a demon emperor. Chu Hao didn't participate in the war between the demons and the witches at all!

Besides, Jiu Feng was found in Beiju Luzhou. At that time, Jiu Feng's first feeling towards Chu Hao was to call him 'Mom'. As the most special existence of the Great Witch clan, how could she recognize a mortal enemy as her mother?

Although the system said that this Jiu Feng was not that Jiu Feng, but over a long period of time, in Chu Hao's observation, the Jiu Feng he had was almost the same as that Jiu Feng, just like Bi Fang, she had lost her memory…

But in any case, the witch clan couldn't possibly be mistaken…

And Fairy Nishang, not to mention, is well-known. Although reincarnation exists in the Three Realms and Six Paths, when it comes to the reincarnation of great demon powerhouses, Xihe is already dead!

The witch clan has no primordial spirit, so there is no matter of reincarnation.

And reincarnation only appeared after the war between the demons and the witches. This kind of thing can't possibly fall on the great demons who participated in the war between the demons and the witches.

And even if it did fall on her, Xihe's reincarnation would be a major event that would shake the Three Realms. It would be impossible to hide, and it would be even more impossible for Xihe to be reincarnated as Fairy Nishang. It doesn't exist, it doesn't exist.

Except for the fact that Chu Hao himself transmigrated to this world, which is slightly different, everyone else is the same. There is no reincarnation or rebirth of the demon race's emperor or empress.

Even before this, Chu Hao and Fairy Nishang had never come into contact with anything about the demon race's emperor and empress. This cut off the relevance of the matter.

Could it be that Xihe just happens to look like her?

Chu Hao only felt even more confused.

However, upon closer inspection, Chu Hao suddenly noticed the difference in Xihe's corpse.

Compared to the other lifeless corpses with only fresh flesh and condensed spirits, Xihe's eyes seemed to be more alive, as if… she was standing there alive.

Moreover, Xihe's eyes were extremely familiar to Chu Hao. Chu Hao was almost certain that they were Fairy Nishang's eyes!

After staring at them day and night, how could Chu Hao not recognize Fairy Nishang's eyes?

Fairy Nishang's disappearance, could it be related to this strange Xihe corpse?

In addition to the strange greetings just now, things were becoming more and more bizarre.

However, Chu Hao quickly understood that it was meaningless for him to indulge in wild fantasies now. He had to do something!

Whether it was to find Fairy Nishang or to unravel the secrets of this Heavenly Emperor's tomb!

In fact, Chu Hao had a bold guess in his heart that the reason why Xihe's corpse looked so similar was perhaps because it was changed later,

Or rather, Fairy Nishang might have had something happen with this Xihe corpse before, which led to Xihe's appearance changing,

This explanation would be more in line with the current situation.

Calming down, Chu Hao suddenly had a crazy idea flash through his mind.

Try sitting on it?!

Chu Hao gritted his teeth, transformed into a giant, becoming a giant existence that could just adapt to this giant-like world.

From this perspective, Chu Hao suddenly felt that everything around him was very ordinary and familiar, as if he had returned to his long-lost office.

Chu Hao didn't need to look down at the several steps. He skillfully ascended the nine-layered jade steps, and then very skillfully stepped over the middle of each floor tile.

In fact, Chu Hao could close his eyes, follow the familiar route, and sit on the imperial throne very fittingly.

Chu Hao's fingers unconsciously rested on the table, gently tapping.

On that huge table, there were already two shallow pits where Chu Hao's fingers landed. Those were the deep pits that would appear after years of tapping the table.

At this moment, Chu Hao felt extremely terrified by this familiarity.

Although Chu Hao could come up with countless reasons to explain that he had nothing to do with the demon race's emperor…

However, this almost instinctive behavior made Chu Hao lose his composure.

And at this moment, Chu Hao heard a gentle female voice in his ear,

"Your Majesty, welcome back…"
