Chapter 4110 This debt must be repaid

The man in black looked very mysterious. We could only see that he was dressed in black and wearing a large straw hat, but we couldn't see what he looked like. Even when he was very close to us, his facial features were still blurry and we couldn't see them clearly at all.

Urged on by our master, we quickly jumped onto the ferryman's boat, but our master stood on the shore, showing no intention of getting on.

He stood with his hands behind his back among the spider lilies, smiling slightly at me.

Looking at my master, I suddenly felt a pang of sadness, as if I were seeing him for the last time.

After all, this place is eerie and terrifying; if you're not careful, you might never be able to go back.

"Let's go, let's go..." Master waved to us.

"Master, let's go together. I want to go home with you." My eyes welled up with tears as I said these words.

Although this old man is a bit of a troublemaker, he genuinely cares about me. He has a sharp tongue but a soft heart, and he always appears by my side when I'm in the most danger. He has saved me countless times. I would rather lose everything than lose him.

The old man's face suddenly darkened, and he said, "A good man should have ambitions beyond his hometown. When did my disciple, Li Xuantong, become so indecisive? Hurry up and go home. Your master will be back soon."

"Master." Overwhelmed with emotion, I suddenly knelt down and kowtowed in the direction of my master.

Over there, the ferryman had already started rowing, and the boat slowly drifted towards the middle of the River of Oblivion.

After the small boat had traveled some distance, the ferryman suddenly looked in the direction of my master and said in a gloomy voice, "Li Xuantong, remember what you said, this debt must be repaid..."

"Don't worry, I won't forget." The master looked at the ferryman.

After saying this, the ferryman stopped talking and focused on rowing.

As the boat drifted further and further away from the shore, I saw my master's figure become increasingly blurry, eventually disappearing from everyone's sight.

I feel inexplicably heartbroken and suddenly feel like crying, I don't know why.

I don't know what kind of contract my master made with that ferryman, but in any case, my master owes that ferryman a debt. As for how to repay it, I have no idea.

Judging from the ferryman's words to the master, it's clear that the master will have to pay a heavy price to ensure our safe departure from this underworld.

The River of Oblivion was very wide and vast, stretching as far as the eye could see. When the small boat reached the middle of the River of Oblivion, I could no longer see my master.

A small boat drifts on the River of Oblivion, surrounded by turbulent waves and the howling of ghosts and wolves.

Standing on this small boat, our bodies swayed and rocked with its movements, a feeling as thrilling as riding in a car driven by Little Fatty.

Riding in Little Fatty's car felt like I was about to die at any moment, and standing on this small boat felt the same.

Because the waves in the River of Oblivion were huge, the small boat kept bobbing and swaying, making us feel like we might fall in at any moment.

In the River of Oblivion, hideous faces often emerge, and even pale hands reach out to grab the small boat, trying to drag us into the dark waters of the River of Oblivion.

Once you fall, there's no way you can climb back up. You'll end up like those wandering ghosts, forever trapped in a cycle of despair, with no hope of ever rising again.

The ferryman was so focused on rowing that he paid no attention to his surroundings. Sometimes he would swing his oars and swat the evil spirits that tried to climb onto the boat back into his hands.

We don't know the identity of this ferryman, but his aura is very strong, and we feel even more pressure than when facing the underworld officials.

He wouldn't talk to us, and we didn't dare to talk to him either.

We huddled together, our emotions rising and falling with the small boat on the water.

At that moment, I wondered why my master didn't come back with us. What was he doing staying in this Netherworld?

This old man has too many secrets. From the day he took me as his apprentice, he seemed very mysterious. After I graduated, I only saw him a few times a year.

Could it be that he's keeping many young widows outside? Uncle Hu said he does, but we've never seen what they look like.

And so we stood on this small boat, not knowing where the ferryman would take us.

However, since it was arranged by my master, there shouldn't be any problems.

I don't know how long I drifted in the River of Oblivion. The surroundings were always shrouded in mist and gray, and the river was always very turbulent.

At first, the wailing of the lonely ghosts in the River of Oblivion terrified me, but after hearing it so many times, it seemed like nothing special.

I even wondered if, at this moment, I released the ghosts from the Heavenly Seal and let them feast in the River of Oblivion, would that greatly enhance their cultivation?

This idea is just a thought; I reckon if I dared to release those ghosts, the ferrymen in front of me would be wiped out instantly.

We don't know how long the little boat drifted in the River of Oblivion. Gradually, we could no longer hear the wails of those lonely ghosts, nor did we see them reappear.

The water gradually calmed down, and when I looked down at the water in the river, it didn't seem so dark anymore.

Because everything around us was shrouded in fog, we had no sense of direction and had no idea where we had drifted to.

I feel very safe now.

The slovenly Taoist priest looked around. He hadn't said a word the whole way, he must have been holding it in. Normally, he was a chatterbox, his little mouth never idle.

The disheveled Taoist priest glanced at the ferryman, a fawning smile playing on his lips, then took two steps closer and said very respectfully, "Senior, thank you so much for bringing us to safety. May I ask your name? Could you please leave your contact information? We'll repay your kindness in the future..."

I have to admire that slovenly Taoist priest; he's really daring, trying to get close to anyone.

Even my master treats this person with utmost respect; he must be an extraordinary figure. How could he possibly ask for his contact information? What was he thinking?

Is he still thinking of taking advantage of this ferryman in the future?

The ferryman quickly responded to the slovenly Taoist priest's fawning, coldly uttering a single word: "Get lost!"

The slovenly Taoist priest was dumbfounded; he had offered his warm welcome only to be met with a cold shoulder.

The next moment, before the disheveled Taoist could react, the ferryman suddenly swung his oar and slapped the disheveled Taoist, knocking him off the boat and into the water.

We were all stunned when we saw this.

Li Chao roared angrily and activated the Divine Sword Soul Chaser, ready to fight the ferryman.
