The Domineering King of the Netherworld and His Sweetheart

Chapter 204 The Conflict

Translator: 飞弹

Feng Xi raised his head and saw a group of followers of the princess.

It was only then that Feng Xi realized he was bound to meet his enemies on a narrow road that he would come across Di Tianhua here. No wonder there was arrogance in her voice. It turned out that he had come to her home turf.

Di Tianhua was like the moon surrounded by a myriad of stars. She was all dressed up and was even more beautiful than before. The fiery-red woven skirt perfectly set off her terrific figure. There was a trace of peerless enticement mingling with her enchanting beauty. The middle part of her lips was as red as cherry while the rest was as white as snow, and there was a perfect-round nevus between her eyebrows, together with her pointed nose like fine jade, which emphasized the delicacy of her face. There was no doubt that her beauty was the most outstanding among everyone.

Sure enough, the feeling of being the focus on the birthday banquet was just different.

While Feng Xi eyed Di Tianhua in astonishment, she was also looking at him narrowly. Then she recognized him immediately and a sharp high voice was instantly heard, “It’s you! Why are you here?”

Di Tianhua didn’t expect that the person she despised would appear in the Heaven World. Thinking about what happened at the Great Plain, she’d tear Feng Xi to shreds to vent her anger. After her trend towards victory was reversed by Feng Xi and his companion, she immediately went to look for Long Shi. Unfortunately, after that she had never found them again. She thought they had escaped but she never imagined that Feng Xi would appear here, who was just handed to her on a plate.

“Aren’t you disfigured?”

Just as Di Tianhua’s hatred had nowhere to dissipate, Feng Xi’s surprised voice was heard. A pair of bright black eyes were fixed on Di Tianhua’s face.

It would be fine if he didn’t mention this. As soon as he did, the hatred in Di Tianhua’s heart grew stronger.

At that time, she didn’t see clearly what had happened. Why would the things she threw out rebound back? Coincidently, it just shot at her face which she was proud of. The liquid shot on her face was a kind of corrosive liquid. If one directly touched it, he or she would be disfigured or even get killed. If it hadn’t been Long Shi who had the antidote applied to her just in time, Di Tianhua’s face would have been disfigured long ago.

Di Tianhua’s hatred of Feng Xi, for old and new wrongs, grew stronger and stronger. If she hadn’t been urgently summoned back by her father , she would never have let him get away with it.

“I didn’t expect you to send yourself to my turf. This time, I want to see how you can run off!” Di Tianhua’s expression was cold and her sharp and beautiful eyes stared at Feng Xi with resentment. She was so pompous that she looked like a gold phoenix.

Unfortunately, the real phoenix was in the Underworld. Even if Di Tianhua was like a phoenix, she was only an imposter.

“Run off?” Feng Xi thought the words Di Tianhua said were interesting. Why did he need to run off? He just entered the Heaven World through formal channels.

“Your Highness, I think he must have sneaked in the Heaven World while we’re holding your birthday banquet. Just hark at him! How can we Heaven World invite someone like him? How about letting the guards pull him in and leave him at your disposal?”

A young man next to Di Tianhua made a suggestion with an ingratiating smile. When he heard the rudeness in Di Tianhua’s voice to the young boy in front of her, he knew that this young boy was probably a thorn in the flesh of Princess Tian Hua that she would only be filled with joy after disposing of him. Thinking of the identity of Princess Tian Hua, if he could get the favor in her eyes, he might also have a chance to marry Princess Tian Hua. So he immediately flattered her.

His words satisfied Di Tianhua and she also thought that the Heaven World would not invite such a person.

Looking at his cunning appearance at the Great Plain and his sly and furtive behavior just now, he might have stolen someone’s invitation and slipped in. How could such a snob be able to enter such a sacred place like the Heaven World? Moreover, it was her 100th birthday the day after tomorrow, and therefore such a person would only contaminate the air of the Heaven World.

Thinking of this, Di Tianhua agreed with the young man’s words and glanced at him, “You make a good analysis. I also feel that this person who looks furtive is not a good one. Then pull him in and punish him after my birthday banquet.”

Then, she looked at Feng Xi arrogantly, as if she was saying, “You’re doomed.”

Hearing Di Tianhua’s words, there was instantly a self-satisfied smile on the young man’s face, while the other young people secretly was full of remorse that they would waste such a good opportunity for no reason and let that young man take advantage of it. What a pity!

Because the birthday banquet was approaching, Lord Tianzun of the Heaven World was worried that there would be accidents during this period of time, so he sent two strong guards to follow Di Tianhua. Now it just came in very handy. When the princess said that she wanted to catch Feng Xi in front of her, the two guards immediately stepped forward knowingly. But just as they took a step, Feng Xi on the opposite side laughed with a unknown irony.

“What are you laughing at?” Di Tianhua glared at him unhappily.

“I’m laughing at the Heaven World which is also merely mediocre. Even if you detest me so much that you want to catch me, you shouldn’t use such a poor excuse, which sounds so bogus. I’ve never heard of anyone belittling himself or herself with this kind of excuse. According to your excuse, are you implying that there is a loophole in the Heaven World that can let a person whose cultivation level is even below Lesser Heaven God come in and out of here at will? If I were your father, you would be definitely pissing me off.”

Feng Xi suddenly felt that Di Tianhua’s brain was just like that of the aristocrat woman he met in Nine Gods City. As for the young man who just gave the suggestion, although he was trying to please Di Tianhua, it was just funny to make a fool of himself in trying to be smart.

“You…” Di Tianhua’s face suddenly turned purple and then red with rage.

However, if thinking about it carefully, everyone would feel that Feng Xi was right. The defense of the Heaven World had always been as safe as that of Fort Knox. If he was able to sneak into the Heaven World so easily, then the Heaven World would have long disappeared during many battles of gods and demons. How could it exist until now? Therefore, her excuse was just making herself embarrassed.

Di Tianhua obviously thought of this as well. She shot the young man with a murderous glance with her beautiful eyes. She was so angry that she would feel that his suggestion was proper.

The young man was stunned by Di Tianhua’s glance and didn’t dare to speak again.

“So what if I’m looking for an excuse? Do you still want to say that you are a guest invited by the Heaven World?” Di Tianhua had always been domineering. Even if she was unable to defeat Feng Xi by logical discussion, they were in the Heaven World after all. So what if she admitted it or not? If one came to her territory, he must have to succumb to her even no matter he was a god or a demon. She would never allow what had happened at the Great Plain to take place again.

“Well, I almost forget it if you didn’t say that,” Feng Xi patted his head as if he suddenly remembered something. He said, “I was specially invited by an old man in your Heaven World. If he hadn’t earnestly invited me to come and promised me to send me a welcome gift, I wouldn’t bother to attend such a boring banquet.”

Feng Xi even looked disdainful as he said this.

This sentence and his expression immediately inflamed Di Tianhua and the others. His words were simply too ridiculous that no one would believe it.

What kind of status was the Heaven World at? If someone had the intention to attend the birthday banquet of Princess of the Heaven World, perhaps he even wouldn’t have the chance to do it. How could the people of the Heaven World lower their heads and cap in hand to invite someone to the Heaven World for thousands of times? Feng Xi would even dare to say such a poor excuse, which clearly showed he was trying to discredit the Heaven World.

Everyone including Di Tianhua was enraged by Feng Xi.

“You little snob dare to talk wildly like that! If you don’t apologize to the Heaven World today, I will definitely kill you on site!” Di Tianhua was the future Lord of the Heaven World; the whole Heaven World would be hers in the future sooner or later. Anyone who dared to insult the Heaven World in front of her was just offending herself.

“Tut-tut. I’m saying no more than the literal truth. Why should I apologize? If you don’t believe me, you can just ask the old goat who has sent the invitation to me. I won’t believe that he dares to confuse truth and falsehood. Go and ask!” Seeing that Di Tianhua was so angry, Feng Xi was more than happy. Many things had happened between him and Di Tianhua before, and he would have almost forgotten it if Di Tianhua didn’t mention them. ‘Thanks to her words, I’m able to recall it!’

“I remember that the person who went to send the invitation on that day seemed to be Master Tian Shi. He… indeed has a goatee.”

A faint voice sang out from the crowd.

However, the people around that person immediately glared at him. Regardless of whether it was true or not, he shouldn’t speak it out, or it would be embarrassing to the Heaven World.

Di Tianhua smiled instead of being angry, “I know it even if I don’t ask him. The truth is that what you say is a fool’s talk. You dare to say such words that insult us Heaven World, you small rabble. If I don’t kill you today, I shall definitely change my family name! Guards, kill him! l’ll be held responsible for all the consequences!”

“Yes, Your Highness!” The two guards immediately released a murderous aura.

“This woman is really like a madman. She would become angry from embarrassment.”

Feng Xi knew she was not joking, so he immediately took a few steps back and was about to fend off the attack from one of the guards when a person suddenly appeared halfway. A green figure with virile bravery intercepted the attack of the guards, who was just Lorraine. And then Huan Ye and Zong Wuqing also rushed over.

When they couldn’t find Feng Xi everywhere, they vaguely felt that something was wrong. Finally, they managed to find him but discovered that the naughty boy really had made trouble. It seemed that he had a conflict with the people of the Heaven World who would want to kill him. No matter what the cause of the matter was, it must be the Heaven World’s fault that they would want to kill the guests who were invited by them.

Besides, Lorraine and the other two also knew Feng Xi’s character. Although he was a troublemaker, he seldom caused trouble voluntarily. Unless others were rude to him first, he would not embarrass others.

“Who are you? How dare you obstructing us Heaven World in the course of our duty?”

Before Lorraine could ask why they would want to kill Feng Xi, Di Tianhua’s men started to howl first.
