The Domineering King of the Netherworld and His Sweetheart

226. Eliminating the Flaws

Translator: 独步三月

In the world of Flower Sea, the two were speechless.

Having learned the ins and outs of this matter, King of the Netherworld calmly examined the young man with his eyes for a long time, who was either feeling guilty or snickering.

Feng Xi lowered his head and sincerely apologized, “Sorry, I was wrong!”

King of the Netherworld was silent for a while. “Next time, count me in!”

Feng Xi raised his head in confusion and stared at him with crystal-clear eyes.

King of the Netherworld’s expression was still calm, “Remember to clean up the mess!”

Feng Xi was speechless.

This means that Boss was not blaming him for triggering a great battle between gods and demons, but blaming him for not cleaning up the mess properly afterwards? However, he remembered he had cleaned up the mess after that.

“Xiao Xi, do you think you’ve cleaned up the mess thoroughly?” King of the Netherworld squinted at him as if he could see through Feng Xi’s inner thoughts.

“No, ah, haven’t I? I remember that I didn’t leave any evidence pointing to me,” Feng Xi still couldn’t figure out whether he had left any trace, and in his recollections, he didn’t leave any trace at all.

King of the Netherworld knew that Feng Xi was not mature yet, and neither was Ice Qilin, who was rush and careless. How could the two achieve anything together?

“You did not leave any trace indeed, but Di Yuntian can speculate through some clues. For example, Di Yuntian knows that you contracted Ice Qilin, and Ice Qilin is doubtlessly capable of transmitting two Space Rings to the Forest of Demon World and the South Region. Besides, you were also in Great Plain at the time, and you also clashed with Di Tianhua. For this reason, he would suspect you, and…”

“And more?” Feng Xi shouted out. He had never expected that there would be so many traces. He had thought that he and Ice Qilin did it flawlessly.

King of the Netherworld continued, “You and Ice Qilin sneaked into the Little Sun. Although the people in Heaven World didn’t know it, the people of the Evil Family have seen you at the bottom of the magma of the Little Sun. After you disappeared, the fire root of the Little Sun disappeared together. The Evil Family can guess that it was you who stole the fire root. This is the biggest flaw. If the Evil Family spread the news out, with Di Yuntian’s intelligence, he will probably link it with the incident of the Great Plain, and thus figure out the whole story.”

“Ah… What should we do then?” Feng Xi held his head. He did not expect things to become so complicated. The Evil Family turned out to be his biggest flaw.

“The Evil Family is the biggest the biggest flaw you have left. Now, the only way is to eliminate this flaw,” King of the Netherworld stood straight. Although this accident occurred, it would not affect his plan at all.

Feng Xi raised his head in surprise and made a gesture of cutting throat. “Boss, do you mean to wipe out the Evil Family…?”

“The matter of the Evil Family has to be solved, but now we have one more important reason to solve it now. It seems that the time of the plan has to be moved up before the Evil Family gets the news.”

King of the Netherworld no longer wanted to tolerate the Evil Family who dared to provoke the Netherworld again and again. Since they wanted to break away from the circle of birth and death, he would send them to the place where they could truly surpass reincarnation.

“The plan is to exterminate the Evil Family?” Feng Xi mumbled and his eyes suddenly lit up. “Boss, when should we start?”

“Well, the plan will start after the auction is over.”

The Evil Family were too troublesome, and then it was time to fix the loopholes created by the Degenerate God Ravine because of Yu Feikui, but it seemed that three powerful gods and demons had escaped afterwards. King of the Netherworld remembered that two of the three gods used to belong to the Nether Family, and they fell into Degenerate God Ravine after having been expelled. Therefore, when they escaped from Degenerate God Ravine, they would surely go to the Nether Family for revenge.

If these two gods could exterminate the Nether Family or strike them badly, King of the Netherworld could consider letting them regain freedom.

Then, the third escaping god, the leader of the Evil Family, who had been on the loose for a while, should be sent back!

In the end, he needed to return to where he had come from. King of the Netherworld never showed mercy to those who dared to cross the line. He had been so kind for so long that the world had forgotten that he used to be a heartless Deity!

“Boss, you’re straying from the point,” Feng Xi patted King of the Netherworld’s shoulder with a sullen face.

They were clearly talking about the fire root, after several words they had gone so far away, which was such a digression.

Although the previous topic was interesting too, the priority now was the fire root as well as the auction, and the rest would be discussed later.

King of the Netherworld reined back his thoughts and smilingly appease the young man’s dissatisfaction. “Fine, then let’s go back to the main topic. Since Xiao Xi has the Supreme Sun Insignia, the refining process won’t be a problem. After the auction is over, I will teach Xiao Xi how to refine the fire root. However, just now Xiao Xi was worrying about how to help Mo Feihan improve his strength. The energy of the fire root is too great. Even if you refine it, you can’t absorb it completely, so you may as well spare half to Mo Feihan.”

“Right, the battle between gods and demons will not start until a hundred years later. This period of time is enough for Mo Feihan to refine the fire root, and rather than wasting it, I will give him half of it. Then, when I got Primary Fire Spirit from the auction, I still have a chance. Boss is so thoughtful.” Having cracked two hard nuts at the same time, Feng Xi couldn’t help but feel happy.

Looking at the excited teen, King of the Netherworld smiled and thought—in this way, the conflict between the Demon World and the Heaven World would be deepened.

Since everything had already happened, he might as well add some fuel to the flames. The Heaven World did need some lessons to learn.

“In this way, everything is settled,” Feng Xi squinted and thought.

“Oh? That’s not necessarily true,” King of the Netherworld smiled meaningfully at the young man.

“What?” Feng Xi suddenly got alert. He had a hunch that what the boss said next was likely to give him a hard blow. Just now, he had a feeling that he had forgotten something important.

King of the Netherworld smiled and leaned in front of him, forehead against his forehead. “In Xiao Xi’s opinion, why do I bring you to Flower Sea?”

Feng Xi’s eyelids twitched a few times. “Isn’t it… to not let others eavesdrop?”

“That’s not right,” King of the Netherworld said with a smile, “If I don’t want others to hear it, no one will hear it. Coming to Flower Sea won’t be necessary. The real reason is… Did Xiao Xi forget to prepare the crystals for the auction?”

Time stopped for three seconds.

“Ah!… I completely forgot,” Feng Xi screamed as he held his head. He completely forgot that there was this step.

King of the Netherworld knew that Feng Xi would act like this. “Auction usually requires one to trade with crystals. If you don’t bring crystals, you can’t bid, understand?”

Feng Xi lowered his shoulders. “I understand now.”

Then he raised his head and jumped directly on top of King of the Netherworld. While Feng Xi was smearing his tears on King of the Netherworld, he said, “Boss, luckily you reminded me. Otherwise, in the auction, I can only sigh and puke up three liters of blood. Thankfully!”

Feeling touched for a while, Feng Xi suddenly raised his head, his face full of questions, “But what do the crystals have to do with the Flower Sea?” Could there be crystals hidden here?

Feng Xi looked around and only saw the endless Flower Sea. Not to mention the crystals, there were even no mountains. No matter where he looked, it didn’t seem to be related to crystals.

“Flower Sea is a very large area. It is invisible to the naked eyes. This Flower Sea is only a part of the Flower Sea world. The end of the Flower Sea are vast rivers and mountains. This world has been nurtured for countless trillions of years. Different from Netherworld, it is not as big as Netherworld, but it contains much richer resources than Netherworld. The Crystal Mouse that I gave you the last time was taken out from this small Flower Sea world.” King of the Netherworld explained to Feng Xi while stopping his bouncing movement.

“I know, as a saying in the God and Demon Kingdom goes, where there is Crystal Mouse, there is the vein of ore, but where there is the ore, there may not be Crystal Mouse. Since the Crystal Mouse at the maturity period was taken out from this small world, there must be veins of ore in this small world.”

And there might be a super vein of ore. Before Boss giving the order, Feng Xi couldn’t wait to find the veins of ore.

“Haha, there are a few bags here. Xiao Xi can use them to store crystal stones,” King of the Netherworld, who had planned everything, threw four or five bags to Feng Xi.

Feng Xi would never stand on ceremony with Boss. He threw the bags on his shoulder and climbed onto King of the Netherworld’s back. He pointed ahead and shouted, “Hey, ore brothers, wait for me, Master Thief Xiao Xi is coming!”

King of the Netherworld paused, “Why are ores your brothers?”

Feng Xi laughed, “Because it sounds rhythmical!”

King of the Netherworld was silent.

When Feng Xi got what he wished, the five bags were full of crystal stones. After they left the small world, dozens of Crystal Mice who were ordered to mine the veins of ore were so tired that they were collasping with tongues sticking out and hoping that this was only a one-off hardship.

Going in empty-handed and returning home with full gains.

Feng Xi grew to like the feeling, even better than being the local Lord. Well, now he had the crystals to compete for the Fountain of Life and the semi-finished Primary Fire Spirit with people going to the God and Demon Kingdom, especially people from the Heaven World, who would defenitely go there.
