“I’m only telling you it’s a possibility. Whether it’s true or not, you will have to find it out yourself,” the Queen of the Netherworld reminded him.

The Queen of the Netherworld swallowed the rest of the words she was going to say when she saw the disappointed look on Mo Fan’s face.

The Queen of the Netherworld knew a lot of things, especially since she was able to see through everything after she died and became a phantom.

Being alive was like living in a dream, or living to make a dream a reality. The Queen of the Netherworld realized she had told Mo Fan a lot of things that she was not supposed to. He should see and figure out the truth about the world himself, rather than hearing it from others.

Whether it was corrupted or beautiful, there might be things that he liked or despised. The most important thing was how he perceived it.

The world that Qin Yu’er perceived was ugly and merciless… She had nowhere she could go, even when she was hiding in the rift on Tianshan Mountain. However, was her soul corrupted because of it?

The Queen of the Netherworld believed Mo Fan had to perceive the world himself. He might have seen some evil, but it was obviously not enough!

Mo Fan left the shrine. The Queen of the Netherworld quickly followed him.

“Why are you following me?” Mo Fan was confused.

“The king gave me a mission, so I have to follow you,” the Queen of the Netherworld replied.

“What is it?” Mo Fan asked.

“It doesn’t hurt telling you. He asked me to keep an eye on you. It’s his business. You did well when you tried to help on Tianshan Mountain. He will handle the rest. He doesn’t want you to oppose the Heresy Judgment Court, at least not right now,” the Queen of the Netherworld informed him.

“Is it because I’m too weak?” Mo Fan said.

“You are strong, but certain things will need time to settle,” the Queen of the Netherworld stated.

Mo Fan could only smile wryly.

“It feels terrible, right?” the Queen of the Netherworld asked in a gentler voice.

Leaving in humiliation felt terrible. Mo Fan had already experienced it once on Mount Tyrant, and now he had to experience it again here!

“There’s something fishy around here if I feel good about it… oh, no offense,” Mo Fan answered.

“Should I find a way to see if someone is really pulling the strings behind the scenes in your country? The king has asked me to keep an eye on you so you don’t mess with the Heresy Judgment Court, but you can help the king deal with the scum in your country,” the Queen of the Netherworld suggested.

“Sure,” Mo Fan agreed.

Mo Fan was angry toward the people of his country who were responsible for this than the Heresy Judgment Court and Khufu. They had survived the calamity of the Ancient Capital and the crisis at Beijiang. Mo Fan had witnessed many who had sacrificed their lives to protect the country, yet not only did everyone forget their names, some authorities even tried to disrupt the peace for their own gains…
