The Domineering King of the Netherworld and His Sweetheart

236. Just Because I’m Your Father

Translator: 独步三月

Ice Qilin was startled. After he came to his senses, he glared at the old man in front of him and roared at him.

“Bastard, let me out! Otherwise, when I’m free, I’ll give you a lesson!”

“‘Bastard’ is not a word you can use to address me! Brat.”

Instead of wearing the usual cold face, the person’s black eyes suddenly erupted with anger, but there was a soft light hidden in the depths of them that Ice Qilin failed to notice.

“F*ck, I’ll call you whatever I like. It has nothing to do with you!”

Ice Qilin had always had a bad temper, but ever since he came out of the world of ice, his temper had been suppressed and he had nowhere to vent it. This time, when he returned to the Forest of the South Region, he just wanted to “vent” it a bit, but in the end, the two idiotic clans, the Ancient Heavenly Dragon and the Phoenix, actually followed his lead.

In fact, he had never expected things to develop to this stage. It was the fault of the ancestor of the Ancient Heavenly Dragon who dared to come and provoke him. How could Ice Qilin tolerated it? Thus he fought with him.

The two had been fighting for a day and a night, and both had enjoyed their fun. Just as they were about to stop, this old man appeared.

The ancestor of the Ancient Heavenly Dragon managed to escape successfully, even though he was slightly injured because of the backfire of the energy. However, as to Ice Qilin, who only lagged one step behind, was caught by the man. Then, he was locked in this cage.

It had been three days since he was locked here. No matter how he yelled or kicked, the man had never appeared and the cage was intact. Although he was so irritated, he could not do anything about it. He could only widen his pair of Kirin eyes every day. If his eyes could kill people, he would demolish the Mount Crest first.

Until today, the old man finally appeared.

“Just because I’m your father.”

The man was tall, strong and handsome. Ice Qilin was even half a head shorter than him. His facial features were sharp and distinct, and his eyebrows were full of dominance. At first glance, anyone could recognize him as a powerful person who was used to being in a high position, and his arrogant attitude was indeed similar to Ice Qilin.

It would be fine if he didn’t say this. The moment when Ice Qilin heard his words, he immediately kicked the cage, but the cage only shook a little, and still remianed unbroken as before. Ice Qilin was so angry that he gritted his teeth. “What kind of father on earth will imprison his son?”

The man was unmoved, and his handsome face revealed a hint of sarcasm. “You’re quite capable of causing trouble. You made such a big noise when you just came back. Take a look at the current Forest of the South Region for yourself.”

A trace of shame flashed across Ice Qilin’s face, but when he saw the sarcasm on the man’s face, Ice Qilin was angered again.

“What are you yelling at? I admit that I was wrong, but it’s not all my responsibility. That ancestor of the Ancient Heavenly Dragon and the Phoenix tribe both should be responsible. If it wasn’t for them interfering recklessly, things wouldn’t have developed to this extent. Why should you only imprison me? You biased old man!”

Ice Qilin roared with hatred and raised his leg to kick the old man, but it was bounced back by the enchantment of the cage.

Damn it, this was what he hated the most. Every time he would ended up being the one caught by this guy in the name of punishment, and he couldn’t beat this guy.

This time, he was negligent because of being overjoyed. He didn’t expect this old man to still be at the Forest of the South Region.

“Am I biased? You give yourself some introspection. Every time it is you making a mess and I come to save your ass.” Seeing that Ice Qilin still did not repent, the man was angry, but it was within his expectation. Ice Qilin was still his bad-tempered brat.

Since the last time he lectured Ice Qilin, this brat got out of the Forest of the South Region and followed the lead of his brothers to run away from home. As a result, he had been away for so many years. Were it not because the man knew that no one could hurt Ice Qilin, he would have long got out and brought Ice Qilin back.

Of the nine brothers, Ice Qilin was the one who he loved and spoiled the most. But this brat, for some unknown reason, always thought that he was the person his father least liked among the nine brothers. Therefore, he had to fight with his father every time they met. What an annoying brat!

At the man’s words, Ice Qilin blushed and then roared uncomfortably, “Who wants you to save my ass? Hey, I don’t care. Let me go out immediately or I will demolish your Mount Crest.”

“If you can’t figure out why you are wrong, you can keep staying inside and reflect on yourself.”

The man wouldn’t give Ice Qilin another chance to escape. He turned around and left, ignoring the roaring of Ice Qilin behind him. Among the nine brothers, this little brat caused him most trouble. The other brothers had seen through it so thoroughly, whereas he was the most brainless one, knowing nothing about it.

Every day, there arose Kirin roars again and again from Mount Crest. Originally, everyone thought that it was someone who was reckless enough to break in and be discovered, but later they found out that the roar was from the person that seemed to be caught back by that powerhouse. Who would bother the powerhouse to catch him personally? It seemed that this person imprisoned must have done something offensive to the powerhouse.

After a few days, all Demon Beasts had been used to the angry roars from time to time.

In the meantime, Feng Xi planned to go to check the condition of Ice Qilin first, but in the halfway, he unexpectedly met two teams of Demon Beasts confronting each other, who were the Kirin tribe and the Phoenix tribe. They were already on bad terms. Now as they met in this tense situation, it was impossible for either to show the other party an easy look. The situation of being at loggerheads seemed to accelerate into a battle at any time.

As the bloodline of both sides was similar, and no one could use it to intimidate the other side, so they could only use force to compete.

However, just a few days ago, the ancestor of the Kirin tribe disappeared, and the ancestor of the Ancient Heavenly Dragon got injured. The injured one returned and directly told his disciples and followers not fight again, and the Kirin tribe did not venture to do anything because they lost their ancestor. Therefore, there came this situation, with no one daring to act rashly.

As a result, the Phoenix tribe swooped in.

The ancestor of the Phoenix tribe were gone from the beginning, so no one reminded them that the boss of the Forest of the South Region had made a move. Therefore, when the Kirin tribe and the Ancient Heavenly Dragon were resting in peace, the Phoenix tribe snatched away the other territories that had no belonging yet, and proudly thought that they were the biggest winner. However, they could hardly imagine that the other two tribes were watching them as if watching an idiotic show.

However, in recent days, the people of the Phoenix tribe discovered that their people were inexplicably attacked.

This kind of sneak attack had lasted for two days. Many members of the Phoenix tribe had been attacked. Everyone said that the other party just gave a blow, then immediately fled, no matter what the result was. As the attackers were able to hurt their people and leave no traces, they must be very powerful. Other than the Kirin tribe and the Ancient Heavenly Dragon, it could not be done by anyone else.

The Phoenix tribe’s temper was not very good. Once they determined something, it would not be changed. They thought that it was the work of the Kirin tribe and the Ancient Heavenly Dragon, so they immediately sent people to sneak attack the Kirin tribe and the Ancient Heavenly Dragon.

So this was the reason of the scene in front of Feng Xi, but the Phoenix tribe misestimated the strength of the Kirin tribe, so the two sides were tangled here.

The Kirin tribe and Phoenix tribe saw Feng Xi and King of the Netherworld who suddenly appeared. They probably felt a trace of human aura from them, so both parties were on guard, felt like facing their common enemies.

Feng Xi had long heard that the Demon Beasts did not like humans, but he didn’t have a chance to prove it until today.

However, this “dislike” was still open to discussion. Even the family feud could be temporarily put aside. It seemed that the world “dislike” was an understatement; it should be “super dislike”.

“Humans, if you don’t want to die, get lost.” A young leader of the Phoenix clan scoffed at them with a cold face. His tone was condescending and domineering. It was true to its name that Phoenix was crowned as the proud king of the birds.

King of the Netherworld flicked his finger with a poker face. Suddenly, a gust of wind blew around him and swept towards the Phoenix tribe with the momentum of toppling mountains and overturning the seas.

The faces of the Phoenix tribe members changed. They could feel the strong force carried by the wind, which couldn’t be shielded by one person alone. Everyone immediately pooled up their force and erected a fire wall. They thought it could work, but unexpectedly, the wind suddenly strengthened and scattered the fire wall they had built. Then, the wind didn’t stop and kept throwing them out. However, King of the Netherworld was obviously showing mercy, so they were not injured.

On the other side, the Kirin clan stared at the scene of the Phoenix tribe being beaten so badly within an instant, with their mouths wide open in disbelief.

“Eh-hem, don’t think that we don’t dare to do anything to you just because you are Uncle White’s disciples. If you dare to say something like this again next time, watch how I will make you into roast Phoenixes.” Feng Xi jumped out from behind King of the Netherworld and walked up to them with an arrogant look. The unknowing ones would think it was he who had just given a lesson to the people of Phoenix tribe.

The Phoenix tribe were stunned. Who was Uncle White?

The others didn’t know who Uncle White was. But the leader’s expression changed. The only person in the entire Phoenix tribe who did not have the surname “Fire” was their ancestor, Bai Huang. Although it was not the same as what the young man had mentioned, he felt that the Uncle White in the young man’s mouth was most likely their ancestor, Bai Huang. He, as a core leader of the Phoenix tribe, knew that ancestor Bai Huang had been following the master of the Netherworld.

Hearing the young man’s natural tone when he called out the name of ancestor Bai Huang, he couldn’t help but look at King of the Netherworld in horror. The bright silver gem on his forehead, the gorgeous god-like appearance, and the young man beside him, all matched exactly with the master of the Netherworld described by the elders.

Gosh, they had kicked on an iron board!

Not only he had figured out, the Kirin people seemed to have guessed the identities of Feng Xi and King of the Netherworld too. The difference was that they were ecstatic.
