Chapter 2608
''What's the matter?'' King of the Dead asked.
He had carefully selected Elon as his envoy and Elon had been diligent. The King of the Dead admired
him greatly. The news about Elon came unexpectedly.
The underworld soldier wiped off his cold sweat and cautiously said, ''Your Majesty, half a day
ago, envoy Elon was ordered to capture Zhang Jue, the evil man. Instead of pleading guilty, Zhang
Jue attacked Elon and killed him.''
Boom!
The King of the Dead was furious and he snapped his throne. ''Zhang Jue is so bold! How dare he kill
my envoy?''
The King of the Dead was in a rage. A thousand years ago, Zhang Jue had messed up the world, so
the King of the Dead sent an envoy to arrest Zhang Jue and take him to the Ghost World for
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtpunishment. However, Zhang Jue was subdued by Lu Bu and kept in the ancient tomb. A thousand
years have passed and Zhang Jue was a free man once again. He caused chaos again and so
Elon was sent to arrest him. Unexpectedly, Zhang Jue resisted and killed Elon.
'Zhang Jue?' Chester, who was kneeling, was shocked. He had a conflicted look on his face. 'This despicable
and shameless person has done evil things on earth. Even the King of the Dead wants to arrest him.'
The King of the Dead calmed down. He sat on the throne and said coldly, 11 Zhang Jue is extremely evil and
has committed a lot of sins. Get the envoys of the other continents to capture him.11
The King of the Dead wanted to do it himself, but he was unable to leave the Ghost World and head to The Nine
Continents because of his identity. He could only send more of his men to arrest
Zhang Jue.
''Yes, Your Majesty!11 Upon receiving the order, the underworld army responded and walked out of the hall
quickly.
The King of the Dead frowned when he noticed Chester was still there. ''Why haven't you taken him down yet?''
Chester cried, ''Your Majesty, please listen to me! Zhang Jue is despicable and he did a lot of bad things. He
murdered me and it would be an injustice if I die. I hope Your Majesty will give me a chance and let me go.''
King of the Dead frown ed. He hesitated momentarily before slowly saying, ''The life and death of a person are
determined by the Law of Heaven and Earth. Your heart vein is shattered and your life will soon end. If I let
you go back, I would have violated the heavenly way.''
''Please give me a chance.'' the anxious Chester knelt down all of a sudden and kept knocking his forehead to the
ground as he made his emotional appeal.
The King of the Dead pondered. Suddenly, he had an idea. ''If you want to go back, you can be my envoy. I will
give you a chance to be born again. However, you have to remember that once you become my envoy, you are
no longer an ordinary person. You must cut off contact with everyone, including your family and friends.''
The envoy Elon had just died, and the position happened to be vacant. Chester was talented, so the King of the
Dead thought Chester was a good fit to fill the vacancy.
However, the envoy of the King of the Dead was not something ordinary people could do. The envoy
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmrepresented the King of the Dead; he rewarded the good and punished the evil in The Nine Continents. The envoy
must be selfless, impartial, and, more importantly, never expose his secret identity.
''I...'' Chester was shocked to hear the requirements for being an envoy.
He had to sever ties with everyone. Did that mean that when Chester saw Darryl and Dax again, he
should act like he did not know them? If that was the case, how was it different from being dead?
''What? Are you not willing to do it?'' King of the Dead asked Chester, looking indifferent.
''I... Yes!'' Chester struggled and finally nodded firmly.
Although he could not get in touch with Darryl and the others when he returned, at the very least, he
could protect them secretly, and he could deal with Zhang Jue.
The King of the Dead nodded approvingly. Then, he slowly raised his hand and a strange force
permeated the entire hall, shrouding Chester.
Chester stayed in place when he sensed the strange force, knowing that it was the King of the Dead
who was healing him.
Chester closed his eyes and thought, ''I will be back soon The Nine Continents!,
