Qin Chen smiled and said, "The reason you all have hostility towards us is simply because you suspect that we are associated with the Mo Li. But in reality, we are not only not his people, but we are also his enemies."
The numerous undead were taken aback: "Enemies?"
Qin Chen turned to look at the cold woman and softly said, "Miss Yao, you should have seen it earlier. The Mo Li had attacked me when we entered the Underworld from the cosmic sea. I almost perished because of him. I believe all of you are intelligent people, so you should understand the principle that the enemy of my enemy is my friend... After all, you have cultivated to such a level among the undead, and you are not foolish individuals..."
The Black-Robed Undead suddenly sneered and said, "You brat, don't flatter yourself. We won't fall for your flattery."
Qin Chen frowned and replied, "I apologize, I misspoke earlier, not all undead who reach this level are intelligent. At least not this one!"
"What do you mean?"
Boom!
The Black-Robed Undead expert erupted with a terrifying aura, glaring angrily at Qin Chen. Qin Chen calmly said, "I was merely stating a fact. Everyone else is absorbed in the information I provided, yet you are the only one thinking that I am flattering you. To put it bluntly, with an idiot like you, do I even need to flatter you?"
"You... outrageous!" The Black-Robed Undead trembled with rage and quickly looked at the cold woman. "Princess Yao, look at this person…"
"You really are an idiot," was the response from Princess Yao, her expression one of disbelief.
"I..." The middle-aged Black-Robed Undead was stunned, glancing at the other undead. Not only Princess Yao but also the other top undead were looking at him as if he were an idiot, their eyes filled with seriousness as they looked toward Qin Chen.
Princess Yao frowned as she looked at Qin Chen, a glimmer of brilliance flashing in her gaze. "You are from the world of the living?"
"Indeed."
Boom!
Qin Chen smiled slightly, and an overwhelming aura erupted from his body, soaring into the sky like a blazing sun rising in the void.
"This is... the aura of the world of the living..."
The other undead looked in shock at the aura emanating from Qin Chen. The scorching aura illuminated them, causing many undead to feel a sting in their bodies.
This was definitely the aura of the world of the living.
The aura of the world of the living exerted great suppression on underworld ghost cultivators, and for the undead in the River of the Undead, the suppressive power was even more terrifying.
"Mo Li, you should also unleash your primordial essence," Qin Chen glanced at Mo Li and said.
"Yes." Mo Li grinned.
Boom!
From his body, a jet-black primordial essence erupted into the sky, resembling a dark demon sun appearing between heaven and earth. Though filled with endless demonic energy, the intense aura contained within caused the bodies of the numerous undead present to tremble involuntarily.
"Primordial essence from the world of the living, yet another being from the world of the living."
The undead were filled with astonishment. Such a fierce aura of the world of the living could only be possessed by beings from there; common underworld ghost cultivators could never release such intense power.
"Everyone, do we still need to demonstrate anything further?" Qin Chen said lightly.
Amid the stunned gazes of the ghost cultivators, the cold woman said solemnly, "As beings from the world of the living, why have you come to my Underworld? Moreover, to my Undead Kingdom?" If they were indeed from the world of the living, the possibility of collusion with the Mo Li would be extremely low. In the past, during the Yin-Yang War, the Mo Li sacrificed himself for the Underworld, killing countless powerful beings from the world of the living. One could say that among the many great emperors in the Underworld, the one who killed the most from the world of the living was the Mo Li.
However, as beings from the world of the living, they shouldn't have come to her Undead Kingdom at all.
