The Mansion of the Dead, Beiqi.
In stark contrast to the grueling survival mode in the Land of Naraka, the lives of the players in Beiqi had slowly regained normalcy after the death of the short-lived king, Yue Yao.
Lu Wu had tried to recruit Yue Yao before, but he had his own principles. Thus, he stubbornly refused Lu Wu's invitation.
Since he couldn't return to the Land of the Nine Luminaries and his army had also completely perished, it was undoubtedly a shocking trauma for him. In his eyes, the players were his arch-nemesis, so he'd never surrender or join their side, even in death.
This immensely disappointed Lu Wu, but he remained merciless.
The rules of the Underworld stated that the victor would be king. Furthermore, Yue Yao had discovered Lu Wu's existence at that time. Since they could not co-exist, there was no need for him to continue living.
