Chapter 813: Everyone, Do You Still Remember Me?

Although the Nether Guards of Baiyuo City had not seen much of the world, they had heard the rumors. They had heard that all Yin Monarchs in the capital city wore purple-golden Yin Monarch battle armor.

With Day Walker Zhou Wenxing kneeling out of nowhere before this person, how could they not put together the pieces as to who this person before them was?

The Nether Guards knelt one by one. Even the Nether Guards under Xiao Shence's command knelt.

Only a few people remained on their feet, and Goddess Xiao was one of them.

Xiao Shence was dumbfounded, as was Xia Yu and his wife. They couldn't believe what they were witnessing.

Fang Chen said indifferently, "Zhou Wenxing, from today onwards, you are no longer a Day Walker Guard. Do you understand?"

Zhou Wenxing trembled upon hearing this, and his mind raced like lightning. He mustered the courage and said, "Y-You... you are not the Day Walker Monarch. You do not have the authority to deal with me..."

Fang Chen smiled lightly. "I am the Day Walker Monarch."

He flicked his finger, and the battle armor hidden within Zhou Wenshing emerged with a surge of Yin energy.

Having lost his Yin energy and battle armor, Zhou Wenxing's aura became ordinary. Even the Yin energy around him diminished significantly. He no longer had the imposing presence he had earlier.

Zhou Wenxing was horrified. The battle armor, which was supposed to be his, was in Fang Chen's hands.

There was only one emotion in his eyes—fear.

He's really the Day Walker Monarch!? The highest-rank officer of the Day Walkers? A Day Walker Monarch?!

𝙛𝒓𝓮𝒆𝔀𝒆𝙗𝓷𝒐𝙫𝒆𝙡.𝒄𝓸𝓶

He wasn't willing to believe it, but the other person had indeed stripped him of his battle armor, the treasure that represented his identity as a Day Walker Guard. This was something only the highest-ranking officers of their lineage could do!

Why is this happening!?

Zhou Wenxing's mind was in turmoil. He couldn't understand what was happening.

Losing his official position also meant losing his qualification to cross the Forgotten Realm. He could no longer roam the mortal realm in broad daylight. He was almost no different from the ordinary wandering souls. He would only live a little longer and be a bit stronger.

Xia Yu's looked mortified and in disbelief. "Day Walker Monarch!? Yin Monarch!? Impossible, how could he be a Yin Monarch? There must be some mistake!"

The Yin Monarch was one of the few high-ranking officials in the Underworld. Above them were the legendary Monarch Yan. It was like the difference between the Six Ministers in the mortal realm and the Emperor. Someone born into a noble family would find it extremely difficult to become an official at the level of ministers even if they studied for many years.

How could an ordinary person like him become a Yin Monarch?!

In his eyes, Fang Chen had just entered the Underworld and was clearly just an ordinary wandering soul. How could he suddenly transform into a Yin Monarch?

This is absolutely impossible!

Xia Yu hurriedly reminded Zhou Wenxing, "Lord Zhou, you must be mistaken. He can't be a Yin Monarch. It doesn't make any sense for him to be one. Fang Chen is full of tricks. He must have used some illusion. Don't let him deceive you!"

Zhou Wenxing had clearly seen his battle armor taken away and his official position lost. He had no reason to believe Xia Yu.

Seeing that Zhou Wenxing did not respond, Xia Yu quickly turned to Xiao Shence. "Lord Xiao, quickly take him down!"

Xiao Shen Ce did not do anything, not wanting to act rashly. Instead, he watched Fang Chen warily. Though he didn't believe that Fang Chen could be a Yin Monarch, everything in front of him indicated that something had happened that he could not fathom.

The fact that even Zhou Wenxing has knelt on the ground is enough to explain everything!

"Why are you all indifferent!? Are you just going to let a wandering soul who has just entered the Underworld mock you all like this!?" Xia Yu was furious. "Zhou Wenxing, you are a Day Walker Guard, an existence on equal footing with the City Lord, and the Night Walkers in Baiyue City! How could you be deceived by a junior!?"

Zhou Wenxing lowered his head and said nothing.

Xia Yu's wife had already sensed that something was wrong and suddenly regretted bringing people here. She hurriedly grabbed Xia Yu's sleeve. "Dear, stop talking...."

"You let him deceive you too? How long has it been since I entered the Underworld, and how long has he been here? How is it possible that I, your family's son-in-law, am still here, while he is a Yin Monarch in the Underworld?! This is a huge joke!"

Xia Yu's expression grew increasingly unhinged.

At that moment, dozens of figures hurriedly arrived, with the leader being the Division God of Baiyue City's Nether Guards Division, the Night Walker Guards, and the City Lord of Baiyue City.

Xia Yu hurriedly shook off the woman's hand and rushed to the City Lord of Baiyue City, cupping his hands in salute. "Father-in-law, you're just in time. Quickly order your men to capture this person, don't let him continue to put on these tricks!"

Slap!

The City Lord of Baiyue City slapped Xia Yu harshly, and then looked at Fang Chen. When his gaze fell on the Yin Monarch battle armor on Fang Chen, he visibly trembled. He knelt on the ground with the Department God and the Night Walker Guard, "Greetings, esteemed Yin Monarch!"

These three major figures, belonging to different departments in Baiyue City, were all now trembling in fear.

How could the legendary Yin Monarch come to a small place like Baiyue!? This makes no sense at all!

Since the establishment of Baiyue, never had a Yin Monarch stepped foot here!

Xia Yu stood in a daze, his face gradually paling as he watched the scene unfold.

"You are the City Lord of Baiyue City? Just now, your daughter wanted to have the Day Walker Guard capture me and take me to the Nether Guards Division for questioning. I didn't know the City Lord's daughter can interfere with official duties?" said Fang Chen indifferently.

The City Lord of Baiyue City felt as if he had been struck by lightning, staring blankly at the woman.

The woman's face turned pale, and her expression grew flustered. She didn't know how to respond.

The Division God of the Nether Guards Division, braving his fear, cautiously asked, "May I inquire which Yin Monarch has arrived here?"

"Ask Zhou Wenxing."

Zhou Wenxing muttered softly, "This... this person is the Day Walker Monarch....".

The Day Walker Monarch?!

Isn't he one of the three highest-ranking officials of the Nether Guards Division!?

Although the Division God of this place belongs to the lineage of the Division Monarch, when facing the highest-ranking official of the Day Walker lineage, he would still act like a son before his father, or a subject before his ruler.

Even though his title included"God," this "God" was very different from the Gods of the Day and Night Walker lineages. Officials like him, with such a low rank, usually only ever saw higher-ranking officers one rank above them, like the Division God.

Now, even if that higher-ranking officer arrived, in the presence of the Day Walker Monarch, they would have to act humble or they might invite disaster upon themselves.

The Night Walker beside them quietly looked at Zhou Wenxing and immediately noticed that his battle armor had been stripped away, equivalent to losing his official status. He couldn't help but gasp in shock.

Zhou Wenxing, the Day Walker Guard, had held his position for over a thousand years and had been expected to rise further, possibly being promoted to Day Walker Lieutenant. Who would have thought he would encounter such a disaster, to the point of losing his official position....

"Your matters can be discussed later. For now, stay on your knees," Fang Chen said indifferently.

Fang Chen's gaze swept over, and he saw that Xiao Shence had already knelt obediently, with his head lowered, motionless.

Even Xia Yu had been pulled down to kneel by his wife.

Fang Chen gave a light laugh and turned to look at the vast Forgotten River. In his eyes, he saw the vengeful souls submerged in the river, struggling in pain, trying to break through the surface, grabbing at anything they could, much like crabs trapped in a crab trap.

Fang Chen saw many familiar faces among them. Though many of them were not present, it was clear they were still wandering the mortal realm, having not yet crossed the Yellow Springs, so they hadn't fallen into the Forgotten River.

Fang Chen asked softly, "Gentlemen, do you still remember me?"
