298. The Intention of King of the Netherworld

Translator: 独步三月

Heaven Gate Town was located at the junction of the Myemo Tribe and Jintin Tribe. Due to the fact that its owner had not been identified, there developed many complicated forces.

Because of the complexity of the forces, the news of any major event would spread as fast as a whirlwind. Especially with the deliberate manipulation of some people, it would only spread wider and wider, letting more and more people come to know it.

Just like what was happening now.

After some people called out on purpose, almost everyone in Heaven Gate Town learned that King of the Netherworld had killed the people of Myemo Tribe.

Myemo Tribe was the alternative name of Ronba’s camp. Ronba was one of the three great masters of Degenerate God Ravine, and was also the strongest among the three. Jemonten’s Jintin Tribe and Myemo Tribe had always hated each other, and many conflicts had arisen between them. However, up to today, there was no real life-and-death battle. The reason that Jintin Tribe had never officially declared war on Myemo Tribe was because that Jemonten was wary of the strength of Ronba and Myemo Tribe.

The strength of Ronba was witnessed by the whole Degenerate God Ravine, whereas the strength of Myemo Tribe was also publicly acknowledged by Degenerate God Ravine.

This was owing to the strict assessment system of Myemo Tribe, i.e. the quality outweighted the quantity. Only the ones who had passed the assessment and who had a confirmed identity were able to join Myemo Tribe. This was enough to establish a strong foundation for Myemo Tribe.

Therefore, although the number of people in Myemo Tribe was the smallest among the three, it was definitely the strongest team.

Everyone in Degenerate God Ravine knew that this was the place where Jemonten was afraid of. Even Jemonten had to be wary of it, so one could imagine how terrifying Myemo Tribe was.

However, just today, someone actually dared to kill the red-haired man even though they knew that he was a member of Myemo Tribe. This person was either brainless or overconfident about himself. He was so confident that he thought that they, a few people, could fight against the Myemo Tribe.

In the eyes of many people, this kind of behavior was asking for death, and it was also a challenge to Myemo Tribe!

The branching camp of Myemo Tribe was not far from Heaven Gate Town. Once the news spread, it immediately caused a sensation. Many people held the attitude of watching the show. They wanted to know how Myemo Tribe would solve this matter or how to deal with the group of people involved.

The Flying Rondo Inn was already surrounded by a lot of people, who all wanted to see who on earth provoked the people of Myemo Tribe.

White Pawn and Black Pawn sat on the ground in horror, staring blankly at the scene that had already happened in front of them. The red-haired man and his five companions lying in the blood were all killed in a single blow, and the fatal wounds were the holes in their foreheads.

Before this, they had never thought that things would develop to this stage.

What could they do? They were people from Myemo Tribe. Now that they were dead, the people from Myemo Tribe wouldn’t let them go easy. But where could the two of them escape? Damn, they were doomed this time!

“King of the Netherworld, I have never known that you are someone who is so easily provoked. What’s wrong with these people?” Wuya looked helplessly at the people who had blocked them, who wore the brutal and bloodthirsty smile on the twisted faces, and were watching indifferently and gloatingly. The ugliness of the human nature was fully exposed in these people.

“Hey, these people are my target. Don’t steal other people’s prey.”

Ice Qilin never cared about the consequences of killing them or any other reason; he only knew that the prey that should have belonged to him was robbed by King of the Netherworld, so he was very upset.

“Well, I think it’s better to move to somewhere else to talk.”

Feng Xi found that more and more people were blocking them, and some people in the crowd were obviously hostile. It gave him the uncomfortable feeling that they were harboring some evil ideas.

“Alright, then let’s change a place,” King of the Netherworld slowly opened his eyes with a familiar indifference.

As Feng Xi heard the words, he found that the racket around him were becoming lower and lower.  The space twirled in a twisting way, and then he heard a voice, “Boss, take us away too!” Then, he turned around and saw White Pawn and Black Pawn pouncing at him.

When they heard that the four were leaving, they immediately realized it. They were afraid they would be left behind, so they rushed towards Feng Xi.

Feng Xi blinked and found that the scene around him had turned into a red desert, but White Pawn and Black Pawn didn’t change their mind, still remaining the posture of pouncing towards him. He yelled in fright, “What are you doing? Don’t come over.”

Just as he was about to be knocked down by the two, his waist was held. Then Feng Xi found that there was another scene in front of him, and there rang two dull thumps with painful cries.

“Little Xi, are you alright?” King of the Netherworld frowned and looked at Feng Xi, who he had brought to his arms.

“Uh… I’m okay,” Feng Xi said in a daze. Everything that had happened since just now made his head hard to react.

Seeing that he didn’t say anything, King of the Netherworld suddenly reached out and flicked Feng Xi’s forehead.

“It hurts… Boss, why did you suddenly flick me?” Feng Xi stroked his forehead and said.

“Alright, why were you suddenly in a daze? Were you wondering about my intention of killing those people?” King of the Netherworld rubbed Feng Xi’s head several times and looked at his messy hair, feeling satisfied.

“Not just me!” Feng Xi touched his messy hair and puffed out his cheeks. He simply put his hair down and tied it up again.

“Then, what’s the intention of your actions? Aren’t those people from Myemo Tribe?”

Wuya looked around, red desert. It was really a good place, where they could talk wtihout interruption. He had thought King of the Netherworld would bring them to his small world. It seemed that King of the Netherworld would not let outsiders enter that place.

“No, correctly speaking, they should be spies lurking in Myemo Tribe,” King of the Netherworld looked up at him.

“Why are you so sure? If I’m not wrong, it should be the first time you’ve met them, right?” Wuya thought that it was King of the Netherworld’s speculation, but he didn’t expect him to use such an affirmative tone. It seemed to be different from his presumption.

“Why do you think so many people are gathered in Heaven Gate Town? Was it really just because of the Current of Fire?” King of the Netherworld asked.

Looking at King of the Netherworld’s composed expression, Wuya shook his head and smiled, “Of course not. The Current of Fire is attractive, but it is only effective to the fire-attribute cultivators. Besides the fire-attribute cultivators, more than half of the people I saw today in Heaven Gate Town are of other attributes. I’m not stupid enough to think that it is because of the Current of Fire. Not only that, I just sensed several powerful forces appearing in Heaven Gate Town. Maybe something else here attracted them.”

“Could it be the spatial loophole?” Black Pawn muttered with his eyes widened.

“You know that?” asked Wuya.

“No, I just heard about it. It was about a month ago. Someone saw a black hole appearing in the Western Waste Land, which seemed to expand over time, and be able to inhale people. I heard that several people have been sucked into the black hole. Up until now, whether they are alive or not is uncertain. After this news spread, some people thought it was a spatial loophole,” White Pawn and Black Pawn were local villians, so they could learn about anything.

“Is that really a spatial loophole?” Wuya felt that it was not possible. The space of the Western Waste Land was very stable. If there was really a spatial loophole, it was impossible for this area to remain uneventful because what was accompanied by a spatial loophole would be the abnormality of climate and formation of space crevice.

King of the Netherworld frowned. “No, that isn’t a spatial loophole. It’s just a black hole projection that will only appear once in a thousand years. As for the inhaling force, the Azure Beast guarding the entrance will eat once every thousand years. Its food is the sin of the Degenerate God Ravine. The place where the black hole projection landed means that the evil level there has reached a certain level. As for those who are sucked in, they happened to enter the range where the Azure Beast was eating!”

“So that’s the case. It seems that the black hole is similar to the spatial loophole, so those people will mistaken it as a loophole, but what does this have to do with those people?” Wuya stroked his chin. No wonder he could not figure it out. King of the Netherworld liked making things appear profound.

King of the Netherworld glanced at him. “No matter whether the news is true or not, several big forces in Degenerate God Ravine will definitely despatch people here, and Ronba will do too. The group of people claimed to be Ronba’s subordinates. They shouldn’t have lied in front of so many people in the inn. But with Ronba’s character, he won’t send a group of useless people over, who could be killed when the goal was not achieved. There must be something fishy.”

“Haha, I think you would kill him no matter how hard he resisted. You seem to have long been thinking about killing them. Am I right?” Wuya sneered and looked at King of the Netherworld with a sharp gaze. Don’t think that he didn’t see it—King of the Netherworld had obviously shown disdain.

“You are a good observer. It is indeed the same as you think,” King of the Netherworld lowered his eyes and touched Feng Xi’s head.

“Why?” Wuya asked the question on behalf of all present.

“The time flow of the Degenerate God Ravine is one thousandth of the speed of the outside world. In other words, two hours here are equivalent to about three months; a month would equal eighty years in the outside world.”

“So that’s the case. You want to speed up the progress here?”

“That’s right!”

Feng Xi blinked and tugged at King of the Netherworld’s sleeve. “Boss, do you mean that after we stay here for a month, it will have been more than eighty years outside, then I will have gained more than eighty years in age?”
