Social Animals? My Brother is a Female Empress in the Underworld and Earns 10 Billion a Month!

184: Honey, your sister’s here to rescue you.Ghost Domain, Martial Arts Arena, Biluo River

Niu Mengmeng stood tall on the high platform. She shifted her feet and then slowly sat down—the chair that only the commander-in-chief was qualified to sit in!

Taking advantage of the height of her position, she looked down over the vast martial arts arena, taking it all in with a brief survey.

If one were to say this place was just an ordinary, unremarkable martial arts arena, they would be very mistaken.

You see, under normal circumstances, a common martial arts arena is merely a place dedicated to providing the stationed ghost soldiers with a space to train and practice combat; its purpose is to ensure the legion can maintain strong and vigorous fighting power at all times.

However, this is no ordinary martial arts arena; it is located within the mysterious and unfathomable Ghost Domain.

The martial arts arena was meticulously crafted for conducting illusion-based trials. Compared to traditional training purposes, this new feature, expanded upon the original function, has a core purpose that leans more towards a cruel elimination mechanism.

When Niu Mengmeng recalled the martial arts arenas in the Netherworld, a wave of emotion surged in her heart, and she couldn’t help but sigh: ”By comparison, the ghost messengers living in the Netherworld are like those in a greenhouse; they are truly too fortunate.”

Fortunately, the wise and sagacious Her Majesty had long since taken precautions, cleverly setting up several formations of astonishing power on the martial arts arena of the Ghost Domain.

Because of this, the extremely high casualty rate that might have occurred was effectively controlled and significantly reduced.

”Sigh! I’ve been here for half a month, and I haven’t even had a chance to see my girlfriend.”

Niu Mengmeng’s thoughts were a tangled mess, and a sense of lovelorn melancholy permeated the depths of her heart.

She stared blankly at the black clouds drifting leisurely across the sky, feeling as if she were like these rootless clouds—lost, at a loss for what to do, and completely unable to find a place to belong.

【No way! Being lovestruck is not advisable!!!】

Exhaling a long breath of stale air from her chest, Niu Mengmeng stood up and walked toward the railing of the high platform.

When she reached out to touch it, her fingertips met a stone surface that had been baked scorching hot by the Netherfire Stones, even hot enough to burn.

Such a high temperature could indeed be called scorching, but for Niu Mengmeng, who had experienced countless ghost soldier trials, this was far from enough to make her shrink back in a panic.

After all, this level of heat was merely a piece of cake compared to everything she had encountered in the past.

”Hiss! I really miss my girlfriend a bit.”

”One day apart feels like three autumns. This Old Lady has already been through many such three-autumns.”

...

”Whoosh!”

You Xiang’s figure appeared abruptly on the bank of the Biluo River. Her steps were staggering yet hurried, as she rushed toward the martial arts arena on the riverbank.

Before long, the figure arrived beneath the high platform. She bowed respectfully, lowered her head, and said: ”General Niu, this Subordinate has an important matter to report to you.”

Hearing this, Niu Mengmeng, standing on the high platform, raised an eyebrow slightly and asked with interest: ”Oh? You Xiang, you actually have an important matter to report to This General?”

”Yes, General! This matter is of great importance, please, General, you must listen.” You Xiang lowered her head even further, and her tone became increasingly respectful.

”In that case, come on up.” Niu Mengmeng waved her hand casually, signaling for You Xiang to ascend the high platform.

Having received permission, You Xiang dared not delay in the slightest and hurriedly replied: ”Yes!”

Immediately, she lifted her feet and walked quickly toward the steps of the high platform. In a short while, she ascended the platform and arrived before Niu Mengmeng.

At this moment, Niu Mengmeng was watching her with a lazy expression, idly kneading the firm, powerful muscles on her forearm while asking: ”Alright, You Xiang, what exactly is the matter? Tell me quickly so I can hear it.”

【This General is truly bored out of my mind!】

”General Niu! I just received news; a ghost messenger from the Electronic Information Department came to report.”

”They say that the spatial rifts over in Country R have shown extremely abnormal conditions. The Ghost Gates have been thrown wide open, and the frequency and number of the Night Parade of One Hundred Demons have soared to 720% of the usual level!” You Xiang’s expression was grave.

”After a unanimous analysis by the Information Department, they believe this incident is highly likely caused by an evil deity of the Ghost King level or above appearing in the mortal realm.”

Niu Mengmeng frowned, and her cold, clear voice sounded faintly: ”Intervene? Not for now. One can tell a thing or two just from Her Majesty’s attitude toward Country R.”

”Furthermore, even if we were to take action, it wouldn’t be the turn of the ghost soldiers currently training in the Ghost Domain to intervene in this matter.”

You Xiang hesitated for a moment, but ultimately couldn’t help but say: ”Sister Meng, but according to the data, there are still many citizens of the Xia Kingdom currently sightseeing within Country R.”

”If we ignore this and let those evil ghosts run rampant, I fear these innocent citizens will suffer harm from the Night Parade of One Hundred Demons!”

Niu Mengmeng glanced at You Xiang, a trace of imperceptible fluctuation flashing in her eyes, but she quickly returned to calmness.

”Her Majesty is in seclusion, but she has always been very concerned about the safety of the citizens of the Xia Kingdom. However...”

Speaking up to this point, she paused slightly, then continued: ”This matter should still be considered carefully; one must not act rashly.”

”The ghost soldiers’ training must not be abandoned halfway!”

You Xiang secretly regretted why her mouth had been so fast, blurting out this situation. But at the same time, she also knew deeply that what Niu Mengmeng said was not without reason.

【Forget it, forget it. It seems there is no other way for now; I can only go and beg the omnipotent Minister You Yu!】

【Ahhh! My little cutie, why did you run to ’Country R’ to do a livestream! This really gives Sister a headache; it won’t be easy to fish you back.】

Just as You Xiang was about to speak to take her leave of Niu Mengmeng, a familiar voice instantly reached her ears.

”Forget it, what you said is not without reason. Since things have come to this.”

”How about this: hurry and go call Thousand-House Master Yin Shu, and have him take his Subordinates to go together. Right now, his men happen not to be in training.”

”Yes, Subordinate obeys!”

You Xiang knew the situation was urgent and could not tolerate the slightest delay. Thus, after acknowledging the order, she turned and was about to leave in a hurry.

”Wait!” Niu Mengmeng suddenly called out to stop You Xiang. She raised her eyebrows, and asked with a suspicious look: ”I say, You Xiang, in the past when encountering such things, I haven’t seen you act so anxious.”

”Could it be because your little Lan is currently doing a livestream over in Country R, which is why you are so impatient?”

”The General is indeed wise and mighty; you guessed it right away.” You Xiang hurriedly bowed, and then turned and left quickly without looking back.

【Ahhh... headache!】
