The Domineering King of the Netherworld and His Sweetheart

257. Feng Xi the Saviour

Translator: 飞弹

Feng Xi stood on top of the statue’s head and learned from the mistakes of Hairless Chicken and God of Books.

To pull these horns, he couldn’t use too much or too little strength. He could only use appropriate strength to pull it.

Feng Xi held the horn with his hands and pulled it gently. Very good, he didn’t break it or make it move. Then he added strength to pull it. Very good, he still didn’t break it off. Then he pulled it harder, and it also didn’t snap off… So, Feng Xi used more and more strength to pull it, but when he heaved with all his might, the corner still wouldn’t move and he was already exhausted and was sweating buckets.

Everyone below the statue covered their mouths and laughed. In this situation, could they understand that their master’s strength was so small that he was even inferior to God of Books?

Feng Xi gave them a stern look and pointed at God of Books, who was laughing the loudest, “Come up here.”

God of Books immediately swallowed his laughter, but he still went up as instructed. Unfortunately, even though he pulled it with all his might, the third horn still wouldn’t move. Only now did everyone know that there was something special about the third horn.

“Master, did His Majesty tell you about the difference between these horns?” God of Books asked.

“No, boss only said that it would be okay if we make one of the horns move,” Feng Xi shook his head. If Boss had told the differences to him, he would have already said it to them.

“In that case, why don’t try to pull the fourth horn first?”

“That’s fine,” Feng Xi naturally held the fourth horn. However, he forgot about the lessons of God of Books and Hairless Chicken. At first, he used a lot of strength to pull it. When his body tilted downwards with a ringing snap, his charming face had already became as black as the bottom of an iron wok.

No one expected this to happen. They didn’t have time to pick up Feng Xi and watched as he fell into the pool.

When Feng Xi came out of the pool, he saw all of them desperately fought the urge to giggle with bright red faces, which made Feng Xi’s face black and livid with rage. He felt that he was messed around by the statue and he picked himself up who was completely drenched. Feng Xi casually threw a silver flame at the pool, which he learned after fusing the semi-finished Primary Fire Spirit. Feng Xi’s flame used to be light silver, then now it was turning into the real sliver flame. When the flames turned real white, then he was just home and dry.

The temperature of the flame was so high that the pool instantly dried up.

“Hey, look down at it. There seems to be something in the pool,” Hao Yu’s two subordinates suddenly pointed at the pool and yelled.

Feng Xi originally wanted to burn the statue as well, but when he heard their words, he lowered his head and found that there were eight bull heads on the bottom of the pool, just forming a circle round the statue. The eyes of each bull head were inset with two red beads, which looked a little strange.

“This might be an important mechanism, otherwise it wouldn’t have been hidden at the bottom of the pool.”

“I heard that the Demon Beasts called Ao Yin like the black magic very much, which was a kind of devil ones. They often use the blood of other Demon Beasts or cultivators as the trigger of the black magic, and then summon powerful mythical beasts. The so-called mythical beasts are summoned from the chaotic space, which is equivalent to the primitive world. There is only something like slaughter in that world and those beasts are very disgusting; only Ao Yin will like them.”

Since God of Books was reputed to be the walking library, he naturally had a certain understanding of Ao Yin and immediately answered the secret of the bottom of the pool.

However, when he thought of the mythical beasts in the chaotic space, he couldn’t stand it and got goose bumps.

“In that case, this pool should be the place to summon the mythical beasts. Pedant, does the mythical beast only listen to the orders of the person who has summoned him?” A faint smile of excitement suddenly crossed Feng Xi’s face.

God of Books looked at his expression and knew what he was thinking. He couldn’t help but roll his eyes, “Perish the thought. The process of summoning a mythical beast is very complicated, and it requires a lot of sacrifices. It is impossible to summon the mythical beast casually by the black magic. Moreover, if you’re careless when summoning it, it might devour you and even draw you into chaotic space.”

“I just said it casually.” Feng Xi just gave up when he heard that there was danger.

The group of people finally tried to pull the third horn one by one, but none of them could make it move. Everyone knew that this horn was the trigger to the mechanism, but it was useless that it couldn’t move it. In the end, Feng Xi was so angry that he burned the horn with fire.

God of Books and the group looked at the burnt bull head and were speechless.

However, just as they were about to think of a way again, the whole palace suddenly shook. The ground quaked very violently. God of Books accidentally saw that the orbits of the stars on the wall suddenly changed, which was showing the distribution of the mechanisms in the whole palace. But they didn’t study it because they already had the map given by King of the Netherworld.

The vibration on the ground lasted for about ten minutes before finally stopping.

“I understand now. It must be related to the horn burnt by you, Master. It just triggered the mechanism, so it changed the layout of the mechanisms in the palace in an instant. Quick, record the Star Trail Map. If I guess it correctly, the people of the Evil Family and the beast families will come over here immediately,” God of Books yelled at everyone.

Feng Xi also found the changed places. He recorded the Star Trail Map, and then burned the east wall with flames until it was completely burnt out. In that case, even if the people of the Evil Family and the beast families came back, they would not know the layout of the mechanisms of the palace. Therefore. it was Feng Xi who would be at an advantage.

After doing all of these, Feng Xi and the others immediately ran away.

Not long after, the people of the Evil Family and the beast families really rushed over here, but when they saw the ruined control room, they were ready to explode. Because even the pool used to summon the mythical beasts was destroyed. They had thought that if the plan failed, they still could summon the mythical beasts to save the situation, but now it was all over.

After Feng Xi, God of Books and others left the control room, they divided into two groups. One group went to look for Hao Yu and the others, and the other group went to find the water lock.

With the Star Trail Map, Feng Xi quickly found the besieged Hao Yu, Huo Fengxuan and the others. At this time, they all got injured, especially Hao Yu and Wen Hao. Although they were not seriously injured, the number of small wounds was increasing. However, in the face of the enemy’s beast-wave tactics, they were still defending the stone room behind them and refused to leave. It seemed that there were still other wounded people in the room.

“Sky buddy, use your ability to bring me to the top of the beast families. I will burn them to death by the flames.”

Feng Xi saw Hao Yu and Wen Hao whose faces were pale from afar. Judging from their appearances, they seemed to be on the ropes.

“What should we do? My spiritual strength is running low.” Hao Yu said, gulping for air. He, Wen Hao and Huo Fengxuan stood back to back with him to form a triangle. Although their faces looked strained and weary, their eyes were still glued to the surrounding people of the beast families, and there were several figures of the Evil Family in the enemies.

“Damn it! When did these bulls become so smart? They would actually know how to use the beast-wave tactics, and it seems that they don’t muster all their strength in order to catch us alive,” Wen Hao couldn’t help but say a bad word and his eyes already went red with rage.

“It’s not that they seems to do it, but they are just going to capture us alive. They probably want to use us to threaten the Kirin Family and the Phoenix Family. What a bunch of stupid bulls!” Huo Fengxuan said coldly. His body was covered with a lot of blood, including his and his enemies’. However, now that he entrusted his back to Wen Hao and Hao Yu, it was obvious that the two sides had put aside their prejudice.

“They want to capture us? Dream on! Even if I’m killed in battle, I won’t let them get away with it.”

“Yes, how can we progenies of the Phoenix Family be afraid of death?”

“Hey, you forget about our Kirin Family.”

“Well, we’re the same!”

“Wow, I don’t expect that you’ve got along so well with each other. It seems that I just come at the right time!” A laughter rang out in the air, and the three of them were instantly stunned. This voice was too familiar to let them forget it.

The owner of the voice didn’t give the people of the beast families and the Evil Family time to react. The fierce sheet of flame appeared like a fire snake out of the void. Wherever it passed, the beasts surrounding the three people were burned to ash. It could be seen that the flame was very effective. And the enemies, which originally made Hao Yu and the others be in a quandary, were almost wiped out.

Seeing such a fierce flame, the people of the beast families and the Evil Family were immediately scared to flee in all directions.

Feng Xi jumped down from the space crack and walked to the three people, “How are you guys? What about the others?”

The three people instantly came back to their senses and shook their heads, “We’re fine. And they’re in the stone room, but they’re all injured. Some of them are more seriously injured, and I’m afraid they can’t stand up. Unless there’s something that can heal them immediately, or it’ll be difficult for them to escape according to our current situation.”

“Oh, I know. Don’t worry, I have a way to heal them,” Feng Xi thought of the Fruit of the World he had got from Tree of the World, which was just the fruit that could heal them.

“That’s great.”

Even Huo Fengxuan smiled too. Obviously, after this incident, he had more or less accepted Feng Xi in his heart. Sure enough, only after experiencing the death together could people understand how to cherish, how to give in, and know the meaning of the word “friend”.

Inevitably, there were all injured people lying in the stone room and they were injured in different degrees. Luckily, none of them got life-threatening injury. Feng Xi immediately took out dozens of pieces of Fruit of the World from the ring.

The Fruit of the World couldn’t be placed in the bag, so Feng Xi immediately threw it into the ring later to avoid the Spiritual Energy of wood being lost from the fruit. However, there were too many things in the ring, so he visited the Tree of the World to ask for another ring, then moved all the Fruit of the World into it, and the rest of the spiritual fruit was also placed in the ring.

“You guys eat it quickly, and just leave here after you recover from your injuries. Pedant and the others have already gone to open the water lock. If you don’t leave quickly, you will be drowned.” Feng Xi stuffed the Fruit of the World to them and said it. He had already made an appointment with God of Books.

Hao Yu and the others held the Fruit of the World in a daze. No one expected that Feng Xi would so easily give them the Fruit of the World that everyone wanted to scramble for.

However, the people who couldn’t believe it the most were Huo Fengxuan and his clansmen. They remembered that they were originally enemies who loathed each other before.

Feng Xi didn’t know what they were thinking in their mind. Seeing that they were still in a daze, he couldn’t help but tap Huo Fengxuan who was the nearest one to him just on the back of his head, and then said, “Eat it now! It’s nontoxic.”
