The Domineering King of the Netherworld and His Sweetheart

213. Chapter 213: I’m Not Here to Sabotage

Translator: 独步三月

As the birthday banquet approached, Heaven World gradually became eventful.

Di Yuntian did not expect that a stream of weird things happened recently.

A few days ago, Tianhua’s Space Ring and the Supreme Sun Insignia were missing. Then shortly afterwards they were actually found in the Forest of the South Region and Demon World. In the far north of Heaven World, there was an erosion of space and the area of the black hole was gradually expanding.

Then, in some forbidden areas in Heaven World, signs of people sneaking in were detected. Fortunately, there were no losses discovered.

However, it was precisely because of this that the whole thing became mysterious. It felt like someone was looking for something but couldn’t find it.

Di Yuntian felt that the person who sneaked into Heaven World should be related to the black hole in the far north, so he sent people to guard it, and even the security of the Heaven World became more tight. Fortunately, considering that there was nothing unusual on the tenth level of Heaven Palace, Di Yuntian could relax a bit. Once the birthday banquet was over, Heaven World would enter a state of curfew.

Because it was detrimental to the reputation of Heaven World, Di Yuntian specifically instructed that no one was to spread it.

The guards below the eighth level of the Heaven Palace were not particularly strict. Only the ninth and tenth levels were strictly guarded.

If Feng Xi didn’t have the Space Talisman, perhaps he would have to spend a lot of energy on these two levels, especially as they were densely packed with Heaven Guards. It would be very difficult to sneak in without being found, let alone the fact that they had to get to the tenth level through the Transmission Ritual, where must be guarded with a lot of Heaven Guards.

In short, if it was two or three days after Di Tianhua’s birthday banquet, he would not be able to get there.

Therefore, this Space Talisman had helped him a lot. Fortunately, Ice Qilin was with him. Otherwise, if Feng Xi found out about it until he went back, he would be very frustrated.

The tenth level of the Heaven Palace was one-tenth of the Cloud Sea Plaza in size. It was not very big, but there were many obstacles blocking it. The magic circles of the Illusionary Realm could be seen here. In the end, one had to pass through the magma tunnel and the Divine Death Sea before he could reach the Gate of the Sky, which was an important passage connecting the Little Sun.

However, with the Spatial Talisman, Feng Xi and Ice Qilin didn’t need to break through these obstacles. As long as Ice Qilin located Little Sun’s position, opened the Space Talisman and stabilized the spatial tunnel, they could get through easily.

With Feng Xi’s urging, Ice Qilin made all preparation.

As the two entered the spatial tunnel, they didn’t know that King of the Netherworld, who was busy with business, suddenly looked up at the direction of their whereabouts. It was only when the entrance of the spatial tunnel disappeared that he withdrew his gaze thoughtfully.

As they walked out of the spatial tunnel, a hot wave of air accompanied by a burst of flames rushed towards them.

Feng Xi jumped in fright and almost pushed Ice Qilin out. The latter, probably figuring out what he was doing, glared at him angrily.

“An accident, purely an accident!” Feng Xi chuckled and quickly comforted him.

“Hmph!” Ice Qilin snorted without saying a word.

The Little Sun was a hot sphere. From the outside to the inside, the temperature got higher and higher. The more one got inside, the hotter it became. There were flames on the surface in pits and puddles everywhere. The ground beneath their feet was burned red like a fiery Red Rock, and released the puff of smoke as they stepped on it.

Fortunately, Feng Xi was not wearing ordinary boots, otherwise they would have been burned.

The two were located at the outermost part of the Little Sun. Because they were randomly transmitted, even they did not know where they were at the moment. At a glance, there was flaming land everywhere. Even the air was permeated with heat and it was easy to give people a feeling of irritation.

Fortunately, both were cultivators, and this little heat was nothing to them.

Although there were no road signs, with Ice Qilin’s sensing ability, there was a stream of pure energy gathered from a certain direction. It was very faint, as if it was enclosed by barrier. Only by concentration could it be sensed, even a powerful beast like Ice Qilin could barely feel it.

“How is it?” asked Feng Xi hurriedly.

“There is a very powerful energy in this direction. It should be the center of the Little Sun.” Ice Qilin pointed to the position above their right, with a slight trace of graveness knitted between his eyebrows. This Little Sun seemed to lurked with a lot of dangers and it wasn’t easy to break through.

“Let’s go take a look first and then play to the score,” Feng Xi patted Ice Qilin’s shoulder as if he was comforting him.

The corner of Ice Qilin’s mouth twitched. Did he look like he was scared?

The Little Sun was very huge in size, but the space was not very stable, so the Ice Qilin couldn’t teleport Feng Xi with him. Thus they had to fly, but because the air was too hot, they could not soar too high, so the two could only flashed through in low altitude.

After flying for nearly four hours, they finally saw the magnificent palace standing on the ground. The walls and palace gates were built up by crimson rocks. Even the tiles of the palace were made of rocks from underground, mainly because they could block the heat of the air.

There were no guards outside the palace. It was probably because this was the Little Sun and ordinary people couldn’t get here, so the guards were relatively loose. There was almost no human figure outside the palace. People should be gathering inside the palace.

“Little Sun’s fire root should be inside,” Feng Xi wiped his sweat, but his eyes were shining.

Seeing his persistence, Ice Qilin was a little surprised. “You little brat, are you sure you really want to destroy Little Sun’s fire root?”

Feng Xi was stunned. “When did I say I wanted to destroy Little Sun’s fire root?”

Ice Qilin immediately stared at him with round eyes, “Or else why are you so active?”

Feng Xi said, “Didn’t you say that cultivating in the Little Sun is effective to the cultivators of fire attribute? Then I think that if I could use the Little Sun’s fire root to cultivate, I will definitely advance at a tremendous pace. In this way, I don’t have to go to Flower Sea every night to cultivate. Since the Supreme Sun Insignia has been secured, I can’t waste such a good opportunity.”

Ice Qilin was speechless. He had thought that the goal of the little kid was to destroy the Little Sun. It seemed that he was wrong, but when he thought about it carefully, he did misunderstand it. It was impossible to destroy the Little Sun by Feng Xi’s single power, so he had thought that the little kid brought him along to assist him to sabotage it. Now it seemed that was not the case.

“With King of the Netherworld as your backer, do you still need to be stronger?” Ice Qilin looked at him and said.

Feng Xi rolled his eyes at him, “The backer is one thing, and to be stronger is another one. The two are not the same thing. Besides, I have said to protect Boss. If I don’t become stronger, how can I protect my Boss in the future? In addition, I heard from Boss that Di Tianxiang seems to be very powerful. If he comes to me for revenge, and Boss is not around, how can I beat him?”

“There’s still me,” Ice Qilin muttered.

“That’s right, but what if one day, you are not by my side either? Most importantly, since an opportunity to become stronger is placed in front of me, if I don’t make good use of it, doesn’t that make me look like a fool? I am the great thief master. How can I waste such a good opportunity!”

Feng Xi had already thought about it when he listened to Ice Qilin explain the function of the Sun Insignia. Instead of going to Flower Sea to cultivate every day, he might as well seize the opportunity to steal the Little Sun’s fire root out, and this was what he was good at.

Although he ate Fruits of the World as three meals every day, too much eating of them would be of no effect. Now Fruit of the World can only be used to fill up his stomach.

“That’s too risky,” Ice Qilin still didn’t agree.

Feng Xi smiled and said, “What are you afraid of? I’ve already devised everything. Do you really conjecture that I come over out of impulse?”

Ice Qilin glanced at him. “No, I didn’t conjecture so. I did believe so.”

“I only found out now that you are so dumb. Think about it. Heaven World is busy with Di Tianhua’s birthday. The guards have been transferred to other places. In addition, Jade Sea God was on her way to pick up Di Tianxiang, and it seems that many masters have been taken away with her. Di Yuntian is occupied with taking care of Di Tianhua. Although the guarding looks strict at this time, it is also a chance for us. As the location of the Little Sun is concealed, they will never think of that we will sneak in during the period.

“So you want to knock them cold.”

This little brat had thought so much in just a day. It seemed that he came prepared.

Ice Qilin had a feeling of being kept in the drum.

Perhaps owing to the overconfidence of the people in Heaven World, Feng Xi and Ice Qilin sneaked in without attracting anyone’s attention. Although there were hidden guards in the palace, with the ability of Ice Qilin, it was easy to avoid their surveillance. About an hour later, they got inside the palace.

Feng Xi hid on a stone beam with his back arched. In his previous life, he had done it so many times as a thief, but in this life, there was Ice Qilin by his side.

After sneaking into the interior of the palace, a lot more guards could be seen. Almost every little while, they would encounter a small pack of patrolling guards consisting of five people. They were densely packed in the interior of the palace. In front of them was an extremely tightly guarded stone palace with rolling lava underneath it. In the middle, a stone tower penetrated through the center of the stone palace, and over a dozen winding stone paths were densely packed with red metal chains, whose the other ends were immersed into the lava.

Fengxi and Ice Qilin hid on the stone beam and awaited the opportunity. After about two hours, a stone door that extended to the outside suddenly opened. The first to come out was a young man with fiery red hair. Seeing the young man’s appearance, Feng Xi and Ice Qilin couldn’t help but widened their eyes.

This person had the identical face of Di Tianhua.
