The Domineering King of the Netherworld and His Sweetheart

135. The King of the Netherworld’s Warning

Translator: Joy

The dramatic change of events forced the Dino Family into a dilemma.

Mo Dao wasn’t an idiot. Regarding this matter, the Dino Family could only compromise.

“Sire’s requirements are unreasonable. Although it was my nephew who had provoked you in the beginning, you were the ones who ruined him, making him disabled for the rest of his life. Subsequently, you also severely injured my brother. Adding these two events together, no matter how you look at it, you’ve gone overboard. There’s no way my family will apologize!” Mo Dao darkened his expression as he spoke, all the while suppressing the anger.

“Gorilla, you’re wrong again.” Feng Xi shook his head as he said loudly.

“What have I said wrong.” Mo Dao fixed his eyes on Feng Xi as he was so angry that his beard nearly spiked up.

Feng Xi said: “Your brother’s injuries were most certainly not our fault. If he didn’t come looking for us before determining who was right and wrong and if he didn’t attack us with his blade without considering the truth, he wouldn’t have been hurt. So, don’t say that we injured him. Do you know what self defense is? He attacked first which is why we hurt him. This is very normal and the result, as you know.”

His words could make people die from anger.

Mo Dao was so furious that he couldn’t utter a single word. What did he know? Wasn’t he just saying that his brother only had himself to blame, “Then what does Sire propose?”

“I was waiting for you to say that. In a sentence, we can call the matter regarding your nephew and your brother even. However, …… you can’t refuse to admit what you have done. You attacked us with your blade completely without reason, how rude! Scaring me is a small matter, but scaring my leader is a huge problem. Therefore, it’s natural that you apologize. Aren’t I right?” Feng Xi continued driving everyone crazy.

Hearing the boy’s words, Mo Dao was already frothing at the mouth and glaring at him in rage. They ruined both his nephew and his brother and now they wanted to call it even? Their way of calculating was already infuriating and as he listened, Mo Dao couldn’t breathe anymore. His whole body trembled as if he was having a seizure as the blood in his veins flowed backward through to his head. He was completely red from his face to his neck. People who didn’t know about the situation would think that he was a roasted duck.

‘Yes, right. Right on my dead body!’

Mo Dao struggled to keep the surging anger in his body calm. It was as if the dam that had blocked the boy’s mouth was opened as he continued to ramble on. However, the overall message was that he wanted the Dino Family to apologize and repay them. He especially emphasized repaid, as if he was probing for gold and silver. However, just as he was about to flip out from his rambling, the boys suddenly said.

“It’s okay if you don’t apologize and repay us!”

“Are you being serious?” Mo Dao frantically grasped at his last straw.

“Of course!” Feng Xi happily nodded his head and continued: “As long as you tell us the reason why you guys are here.”

His words not only caused Mo Dao to be dumbstruck, even Huan Ye and the others froze. Only Luo Nanshu glanced at Feng Xi with a strange expression. However, the most obvious person was Carendra. Although he had already suspected that the Dino Family had discovered the vein of ore in the Emerald Dragon Mountains, he never thought that Feng Xi was also aware of it.

Mo Dao’s expression changed with uncertainty. In the end, under the crowd’s gaze, he forcibly smiled as he said: “Hasn’t everyone come for that Demon Beast with the Mythical Beast bloodline in the forest. Is Sire not aware of this?”

“If you don’t want to talk, then fine.” Feng Xi’s surprisingly uninterested attitude caused people to become confused.

Mo Dao couldn’t make sense of what Feng Xi was thinking. However, the opposition’s question made him feel uneasy. These three people seemed to know what they were actually here for, or else why would he suddenly ask this question. Mo Dao couldn’t help but suspect that their information had been leaked.

It was at this moment that a small squeaking sound came from Feng Xi’s body. However, in the quiet hotel, it was particularly clear. The sound immediately attracted everyone’s attention. A mini Crystal Mouse that was the size of a child’s fist climbed out from the boy’s lap. Its purple gold appearance was extremely dazzling. The purple gold scales that were embedded in its body symbolized that it was an adult Crystal Mouse.

“Crystal Mouse?” Mo Dao immediately widened his eyes and shouted in shock. However, the more carefully he looked, his eyes grew more red.

Along with Mo Dao’s roar, the entirety of the hotel immediately erupted in excitement. People inhaled with anticipation as more and more people’s eyes grew red while staring at the Crystal Mouse in Feng Xi’s lap.

The Crystal Mouse was a household name in the God and Demon Kingdom because it represented an endless amount of wealth. Therefore, whether it be rogue cultivators or an extremely powerful force, they were green with envy. Even if it was just an infant or developing Crystal Mouse, once it appears, a rarely seen fight in order to obtain the mouse would occur. It was a common sight to see rivers full of blood and thousands of miles of corpses wasn’t impossible either!

The last fight for a Crystal Mouse occurred two hundred and thirty years ago. At that time, powerful experts from strong forces emerged like an endless stream. To obtain that Crystal Mouse, even some of the Great Heaven Gods participated. No one knew how many people had died but that battle had caused a great sensation through the public. However, the final result was extremely dramatic. That Crystal Mouse ran here and there and somehow ended up in the middle region. As it was being chased by a few experts, that Crystal Mouse leapt into the arms of the Great Heaven God of Air, who was leisurely taking a stroll.

The Great Heaven God of Air was Luo Nanshu’s grandfather and was one of the famous Nine Great Heaven Gods. While he was normally friendly, once his temper flared up, even the other eight Great Heaven Gods avoided him.

The scene at that time was extremely funny. All the experts who were chasing the Crystal Mouse froze in place. Although they stared fanatically at the Crystal Mouse that was in the Great Heaven God of Air’s arms, no one dared to step forward. The result was that the Great Heaven God of Air effortless obtained that Crystal Mouse without having to lift a finger. This was the main reason that the Gunilla Chamber of Commerce could become the top business in the God and Demon Kingdom.

It was said at that time the Crystal Mouse was only in its developing stage. However, the Crystal Mouse in front of them was in its adult state. The difference between the two was huge.

The growth of the Crystal Mouse was split into three periods: infancy, development and adult. The colour of their appearance was divided into light purple, dark purple and purple gold respectively and the change in colour between the three periods were gradual. However, raising a Crystal Mouse was very difficult. As a result, many Crystal Mice died before they reached adulthood and their numbers were dwindling. As of now, there were so few that their population could be counted solely on one’s fingers.

However, today, a Crystal Mouse had appeared in this sort of desolate place and moreover, it was an adult one. If word got out, all the forces in the God and Demon Kingdom would go crazy!

At that time, the Crystal Mouse that the Gunilla Chamber of Commerce had obtained was only at the developmental stage and they had become the top business in the God and Demon Kingdom. If it had been an adult Crystal Mouse, wouldn’t they……?

Everyone’s breathing grew heavier as they thought about it.

No one could imagine what kind of wealth an adult Crystal Mouse could bring. However, what was certain was that it would allow them to surpass the current Gunilla Chamber of Commerce!

Although the future seemed wonderful, it seemed that these people had forgotten the reason that the Gunilla Chamber of Commerce was able to protect that Crystal Mouse. It was because of the intimidating power that the Great Heaven God of Air held. Even if some forces had the idea of stealing the Crystal Mouse, they still had to weigh their own worth. Even if they had a Crystal Mouse, if they became enemies with one of the Great Heaven Gods, whether they would be alive to enjoy the wealth would be questionable!

However, in the face of great temptation, even a saint would lose his reason!

In an instant, Carendra felt multiple spiritual senses probing his mind from all directions. Some of the spiritual senses were extremely obscure and if not of the unique ability of the Sura Family, he likely wouldn’t have noticed them at all. However, Carendra finally discovered that there were so many experts hiding in Skyline City. Why were so many here? It wasn’t possible for an insignificant Demon Beast with a Mythical Beast bloodline to attract so many experts. It was likely that the information was leaked regarding the vein of ore in the Emerald Dragon Mountains!

A vein of ore, no matter what level, would always attract a swarm of people to come to participate.

As the people, who had nearly lost all reason, rushed to snatch the Crystal Mouse, an ice-cold voice sounded in the dead silent hotel. It wasn’t loud or soft, but everyone, including those experts who were frantically probing with their spiritual sense, felt as if their skulls were being stabbed by countless needles. One by one, their faces immediately became pale.

Carendra didn’t know about the others, but the people in the hotel were the first to bear the brunt, especially those people whose eyes were green with envy. Each of them felt as if they were struck by lightning and tumbled over in pain. Their faces were so twisted that their original shapes were lost and they trembled on the ground as if they were having a seizure.

Feng Xi was sitting in the King of the Netherworld’s lap and so none of the spiritual senses could reach his body.

He had just blinked before he saw that numerous people in the hotel had fallen over. There were only a few people who were standing including Huan Ye, Zong Wuqing and Luo Nanshu. Their determination was clearly much stronger than the others. They hadn’t lost their reasoning due to the Crystal Mouse, so they weren’t attacked. However, their expressions didn’t look pretty.

“Gorilla, although you are wrong, you don’t have to present such a big gift!” Feng Xi revealed an extremely shocked expression when he saw Mo Dao kneeling. No one knew if he was aware what had happened or if he was pretending not to know.

Mo Dao was already in so much pain that he couldn’t utter any words. His reasoning finally returned, and he realized that the man who was hugging the boy was much more powerful than he had thought. His strength was even more unfathomable than what he had felt from the leader of the Dino Family. At this moment, the greed in his eyes dissipated and all that was left was fear. He couldn’t speak with his chattering teeth so he could only turn a deaf ear toward the boy’s ridicule as he knelt on the floor, trembling.

In the midst of the fear and horror ……

The King of the Netherworld slowly stood up with Feng Xi in his arms. His tall and upright stature made him seem like a peak that could hold up the heavens. His majestic aura was like heaven and earth and everyone around him could only prostate on the ground and devotedly worship him.

“Leave here within ten seconds. Or else — no one will be left alive!”
