The Domineering King of the Netherworld and His Sweetheart

276. Is The Turtle Meat Delicious?

Zhan Ling’s eyes twitched. He didn’t expect that the person who saved him was his rival in love.

Although he really wanted to thank the rival in love for saving him, seeing the smile on his face, Zhan Ling just didn’t want to thank him anymore. He didn’t want to make Feng Xi complacent for some reason. However, it was true that he owed Feng Xi a favor.

“Thank you for saving me, but don’t think that if you save me, I will give up my sweetheart to you. I will never give up,” Zhan Ling raised his head and looked at Feng Xi with a peremptory face. And he did not show the slightest inclination to thank Feng Xi.

Feng Xi’s mouth corner couldn’t help but twitch a bit.

In fact, he didn’t attach any extravagant hope that Zhan Ling would thank him, but he thought Zhan Ling was too self-important. What did he mean by “I won’t give up my sweetheart to you” and “I will never give up”? He said it as if his Boss was Zhan Ling’s man. It was still up in the air and it was only Zhan Ling’s own wishful thinking.

Could it be that he actually had been lacking love for so long that he would have an idea that he must marry someone he just met? What a hasty man!

Leaving aside whether it was hasty or not, just his self-righteous attitude made Feng Xi want to admire him. After all, how high his expectations were, how much disappointment he would have by then. When his illusions about love were shattered, he would know how childish his thoughts were.

Now, Feng Xi already didn’t bother arguing with him. After all, the more he talked with this kind of person, the more excited this person would be. So, the best way was to ignore him.

Seeing that the rival in love only glanced at him and walked away, Zhan Ling felt a little guilty. After all, Feng Xi had just saved him, but he said that to Feng Xi without even saying “thank you”. If it was Zhan Ling himself, he would probably be angry. But Feng Xi didn’t even say a word to refute him, which made Zhan Ling looked like an ungrateful man who was cruel and heartless.

But if someone wanted Zhan Ling to apologize, he would feel mean saying it. After all, it was still his pride at work.

Feng Xi didn’t know that his actions made Zhan Ling not only feel guilty but also fall into a dilemma at the same time. If he knew, he would definitely carry out this kind of disregard through to the end firmly and let Zhan Ling continue feeling guilty.

After saving Zhan Ling, Feng Xi began to look at the giant turtle. He came to save Zhan Ling for another purpose, which was to look at the giant turtle. If it was good, he could also get one another day, and then sit on the back of a giant turtle to travel freely in the Ocean World with his Boss. That feeling should be good.

However, he didn’t expect the Hec’Mo of the five great nobles in the deep ocean to be so cunning. When Hec’Mo saw King of the Netherworld easily subduing Mingento and his brother, he knew that it wouldn’t be good for him to stay there any longer. So he slipped away when everyone’s attention was fastened on King of the Netherworld’s side, returning to the giant turtle and coincidentally bumping into Feng Xi and Zhan Ling.

Hec’Mo knew what had happened when he saw that Zhan Zhen was battered unconscious.

Feng Xi saw that Hec’Mo suddenly returned to the giant turtle and knew that the situation was bad. He pulled Zhan Ling and wanted to jump into the sea to escape. However, Hec’Mo’s cultivation level was much more powerful than that of them. Before Feng Xi could jump, he was stopped by Hec’Mo, who easily subdued them with only one hand.

Hec’Mo did not know that Feng Xi was with King of the Netherworld. Otherwise, he would not have dared to catch Feng Xi and he would have immediately fled away. He thought that Feng Xi was sent by the warlike family while they didn’t pay attention to him. No wonder the warlike family refused to surrender. It turned out that they had a card up their sleeves. But unfortunately, the two of them met Hec’Mo.

Although he had failed in the war, it did not matter. After the man left, he could make his plan to attack the Iron Fence again. Moreover, he now had two hostages in his hands. He was not afraid that the warlike family would dare to fight back by then. He would definitely capture the Iron Fence.

Because he was worried that King of the Netherworld would punish him as an example, Hec’Mo immediately asked the turtle to sneak into the sea after catching Feng Xi and Zhan Ling.

Suddenly, the turtle let out a long cry, as if reminding Hec’Mo.

Hec’Mo, who was tying Feng Xi and Zhan Ling up, suddenly raised his head and saw a thin and tall figure appearing above the turtle’s head who looked at him under the sun. And the cold expression on the man’s face was clearly displayed in front of him.

Hec’Mo jumped up in an instant and pushed Feng Xi and Zhan Ling, whom he had tied together, in front of the man. There was fear in Hec’Mo’s eyes that he himself did not notice when he looked at the man warily. After seeing the man’s powerful strength, he felt that he was really weak for the first time, but his pride didn’t allow him to admit it.

“Don’t come over or I’ll kill the two of them,” Hec’Mo said with a trembling voice, holding Zhan Zhen’s dagger against Feng Xi’s neck.

King of the Netherworld frowned, “Let go of them and then I will spare your life.”

“Really?” Hec’Mo’s eyes lit up. He cherished his life very much. As a schemer, he knew that revenge was a dish best served cold. Moreover, he also had the noble status as one of the five great nobles in the deep sea. If he died here, it wouldn’t be worth it. So he couldn’t care about the pride as one of the five great nobles at this moment.

“Of course it’s true. My Boss has never lied,” Feng Xi said for King of the Netherworld after rolling his eyes.

“Your Boss? Aren’t you the member of the warlike family?” Hec’Mo suddenly widened his eyes. Was this man here to save this young boy?

“When did I say that I’m from the warlike family? Don’t confuse me with the warlike family. I’m not interested in becoming a member of their family,” Feng Xi said with disdain. If he was the member of the warlike family, it would be better for him to commit suicide. If he had to live in a small place like Iron Fence all his life, he would rather commit suicide than go crazy with boredom.

“Hey, hey, what do you mean by that? What’s wrong with the people of our warlike family? I won’t agree if you want to join our family! Can you become one of the warlike family with your strength? Perish the thought!” When Zhan Ling heard his words, he was suddenly angry. What was wrong with the warlike family? He was still proud to be a member of the warlike family. This person would dare to dislike the warlike family in front of him, which obviously showed that he didn’t respect him.

“Bah, why do I need you to agree? Who is caught by the enemy and wants someone else to save him? I think you’re the most useless person in the warlike family. If they didn’t catch you and threaten your family with your life, would your family members have to fight with fear that you will be hurt by them? But you still have the cheek to say that you’re a member of the warlike family. I even feel ashamed for you.”

Speaking of glib tongue, Feng Xi would not lose to Zhan Ling, so he immediately refuted him and made him speechless.

“You…” Zhan Ling really couldn’t refute it because it was the truth. Everyone saw him becoming a drag on them.

Feng Xi didn’t need to look at it and he knew that Zhan Ling looked terrible, so he couldn’t help but laugh complacently.

Hearing his laughter, Zhan Ling was so angry that he said without thinking too much, “Why are you so complacent? It was you who came to save me yourself, I didn’t let you save me.”

Feng Xi swore quietly that Zhan Ling was such an ungrateful man and said unhappily, “Who said that I’m here to save you? I’m here to see the turtle. As for you, I just saved you in passing, but since someone is ungrateful, I will just regard it as accidentally stepping on the turtle shit.”

“You…”

The two of them scolded each other and their faces turned bright red, completely forgetting that their lives were still in Hec’Mo’s hands.

Hec’Mo took a deep breath and ignored them. He said directly to King of the Netherworld, “Okay, I can let them go, but I have to wait until I reach a safe place.”

King of the Netherworld looked at the dagger on Feng Xi’s neck and looked at Hec’Mo, “My patience is limited. If you don’t let him go, you won’t have to leave.”

Hec’Mo couldn’t help but contract his pupils. He seemed to be thinking about the possibility of King of the Netherworld’s words with a gloomy face. In the end, his common sense prevailed. At this time, he could only gamble. He had an intuition that if he didn’t follow the man’s words, he really wouldn’t be able to leave.

Thinking of this, Hec’Mo put his dagger away, and then pushed the two of them forward. Then he quickly left and jumped into the sea. He was a member of the Ocean World and could go back even if he didn’t rely on the turtle. He couldn’t believe the man’s words completely, so his plan was to abandon the turtle and escape alone. As for his subordinates, they were none of his business.

Hec’Mo should be glad that he didn’t hurt Feng Xi, otherwise King of the Netherworld wouldn’t let him leave just like this.

When Hec’Mo pushed Feng Xi and Zhan Ling away, the rope was broken. As Feng Xi was freed, he immediately took a few steps and kept away from Zhan Ling as if he was avoiding a plague. He even deliberately patted the back of him where Zhan Ling touched, as if he was deliberately angering Zhan Ling. Then he yelled, “I’m really unlucky. I don’t know if someone’s bad luck will infect me. Boss, let’s go back and take a bath first.”

This sentence successfully infuriated Zhan Ling, but he could not refute it. He could only stare at Feng Xi, gnashing his teeth

King of the Netherworld hugged the young boy who returned into his arms and thought that he really should take a bath.

“Boss, how do you think of this turtle?” Feng Xi had not yet forgotten his purpose.

“It’s just an immature turtle. There is still a chance in the future. Besides, the level of it is not high, and it is too big. Even if we take it back, there would no room to raise it. Moreover, the giant turtle can’t leave the Ocean World. Xiao Xi, if you want to raise a giant turtle, it is best to raise one of higher level.” King of the Netherworld said.

“Then I don’t want it,” Feng Xi had always obeyed King of the Netherworld’s words, especially in this aspect. It must be right to follow his boss, “By the way, Boss, have you ever eaten the turtle meat?”

Feng Xi didn’t think it would be a big deal if he couldn’t raise a turtle. He still didn’t know if the turtle meat was delicious.

Just as Feng Xi said this, the turtle under their feet suddenly shook, and then swung crazily from one side to the other that most of its body had sunk into the sea. Feng Xi was caught off guard. Fortunately, he was originally held by King of the Netherworld, but Zhan Ling was not so lucky and almost fell into the sea.

The turtle seemed to want to return into the sea. King of the Netherworld flew into the air with Feng Xi in his arms. As for Zhan Ling, King of the Netherworld directly threw him at the direction of Zhan Tian and the others.

Finally, Feng Xi watched almost open-mouthed as the turtle returned into the sea, as if it was fleeing, and disappeared.
