The Domineering King of the Netherworld and His Sweetheart

320. What Is the Word?

Translator: 飞弹

In the end, no one knew what the word Feng Xi had piled except him.

Before this, because he didn’t want others to guess the word he was piling so quickly, Feng Xi first placed the bodies casually. But it was still a little reasonable, because the corpses were arranged in the order of strokes, yet it was just a little messy.

However, just as they were about to scrape the corpses together, Jemonten smashed down from the sky and just hit the pile of ‘corpses’. The dominator’s strength was very strong. Even if it was just the residual force, it was still enough to crush a person’s body. Therefore, the ‘corpses’ that Feng Xi scraped together were all crushed to a pulp and those who were alive among the corpses also died.

At that time, Feng Xi was still dragging the last ‘corpse’ in his hand. The ‘corpse’ was none other than Moelo, but he was very lively, different from the corpses before.

At that time, everyone thought that Moelo had escaped, but he didn’t flee at all. Instead, he hid not far away and looked at the battle. Then Nangong Yang who ran to look for the corpses found him and the two of them immediately fought among themselves. In order to end the farce as soon as possible, Eshar and more than ten people besieged Moelo.

In the end, Moelo surrendered when he knew he could not win.

Originally, Nangong Yang and others wanted to kill Moelo. Naturally, they would used the gory ways to do it like the scene that Feng Xi had seen when he first met them. However, Feng Xi refused because he found that there was still a corpse short. He preferred intact corpses instead of those which looked particularly scary.

Moelo was indeed good at playing it by ear. When he saw that it was Feng Xi who would make the decision, he promised to be a ‘corpse’ for Feng Xi. He also said  that as long as Feng Xi didn’t kill him, he was willing to listen to Feng Xi’s words and let Feng Xi place himself wherever Feng Xi liked. He wouldn’t bear no grudges.

Nangong Yang immediately suspected that Moelo was a psychopath. Perhaps he just wanted to attempt to be placed by others as a ‘corspe’.

In fact, Moelo was really a psychopath.

Seeing that he agreed so frankly, Feng Xi prepared to drag him over as a corpse. However, before he could walk over, the other ‘corpses’ were crushed to a pulp by Jemonten. Feng Xi just stopped there, rooted to the spot.

Moelo asked him in an unsteady voice whether Feng Xi still wanted to pile the word. Feng Xi grinned angrily and told him to scram, and then he really did.

They had been working hard for a long time, but when this was almost all over and done with, all their efforts had come to zero. They knew Feng Xi was angry without even thinking it over. Nangong Yang and the others thought that Feng Xi might make them disguise as the ‘corpses’ to be placed into the word by him, so when they realized that something was wrong, they immediately ran away like frightened birds.

Therefore, the great war that everyone had been looking forward to for a long time finally came to an end in such a ridiculous way.

In this battle between the three great tribes, casualties were not very high. In the end, just some leaders of the enemies died. As for others who had escaped, the Myemo Tribe did not have the interest in pursuing them. After all, without Jemonten and Eudgie, the Jintin Tribe and the Tendo Tribe had no trump cards to fight against the Myemo Tribe anymore.

No one was surprised or regretful about Eudgie’s death. Even if she was once the most perfect beauty in everyone’s heart, she was also dead because of this battle. She was smart enough to guess the identity of King of the Netherworld, so she wanted to escape for knowing that King of the Netherworld wouldn’t let go of her. But she had outsmarted herself this time, which was also her tragedy. Since she knew that King of the Netherworld wouldn’t let go of her, all her attempts to escape would be in vain!

There was another thing: the Free Alliance was dissolved after this incident. First, the force of Desert Crazy Lion was destroyed, then One-eyed Hawk and his subordinates were eliminated by King of the Netherworld. As a result, they were crushed to a pulp. The entire Free Alliance could be said to have become an empty shell, and dissolving was only a matter of time.

The biggest winner of the war was the Myemo Tribe. In other words, Degenerate God Ravine could be said to be almost ruled by the Myemo Tribe.

However, this battle also left people a big enigma: which word Feng Xi wanted to pile with the corpses?

This matter had been discussed in Degenerate God Ravine for a few days before it was finally solved by a troublemaker. He recorded the whole process of the war with a Black Crystal, including the word Feng Xi wanted to pile. According to the order of the bodies placed by Feng Xi, he really spelled the word out. But when someone asked him, he flatly refused to divulge it.

The reaction of the troublemaker made everyone more curious about what the word was that Feng Xi wanted to spell.

As the saying goes, “Spare the rod and spoil the child.” Then the he would definitely tell the truth under the fist!

After being beaten by some people, the troublemaker finally said it, but the same thing happened again. The reaction of those people after knowing the truth was the same as that of the troublemaker, and no one was willing to tell this word to others.

Then another group of people went crazy. What exactly was the word? Why were their reactions like this? Therefore, the same thing happened again and again. They were all very unforthcoming about it like the previous ones and didn’t want to tell it to others at all. Therefore, the word finally became a secret that everyone understood but couldn’t tell in public.

As the news spread more and more rapidly, even Nangong Yang and the rest were curious about it, so some of them directly went to ask Feng Xi.

At that time, Feng Xi was sitting in King of the Netherworld’s arms and swigging the wine which had been brewed before. Because it could improve the cultivation level, Feng Xi had been drinking it non-stop for the past few days. In the end, he really broke the bottleneck from Exalt God to Lesser Heaven God, although the fire root also had come out of it with some credit.

However, after he got the benefits, Feng Xi planned to brew more wines. This time, he was not stupid enough to brew wines himself. He threw the recipes and the tools used to brew wine into the Small World, and then let God of Books and the others do it. The condition of exploiting them was to let them also drink enough wines afterwards.

Hearing what Yang Xiao said, Feng Xi revealed a smile like a cunning fox from behind the jar.

“Do you want to know? Do you really want to know about it?”

“You haven’t gone out for the past few days, so you may don’t know what has happened outside. The discussion outside is very hot. Everyone is guessing what the word you wanted to spell was at the time, but those who know it are unwilling to say it, which makes us curious too. So, please tell me.” Yang Xiao was the most curious about it, so he couldn’t help but come to Feng Xi. The others didn’t come with him, but they probably wanted to ask Yang Xiao after he got the answer.

“Once you know the truth, you will definitely wish that you won’t have known it,” Feng Xi smiled cunningly. This effect was something he had not expected either. He didn’t expect it to be more interesting that he hadn’t spelt the word than finishing it.

“How can I regret knowing such an interesting thing!” Yang Xiao was sure that knowing the word would be very fun.

“Are you a fool? It was just a character. Why do you have to be so curious about it?” Feng Xi looked at him for a while before modifying his previous remark suddenly, “Actually, it doesn’t harm to tell you the truth. Let me ask you a question. Do you know how a pig dies?”

“Pig?” Yang Xiao was stunned for a moment, then he glared at Feng Xi with his eyes widening. After a while, he started laughing, “You’re really a bad guy!”

After Yang Xiao finished his words, he ran away quickly. Watching his retreating figure, Feng Xi guessed that Yang Xiao probably wanted to go to fool Nangong Yang and the others.

No wonder the people who knew the answer didn’t want to say it. One was so curious about a mere word “pig” that a huge effort was made to investigate it, which meant that this person was just a pig. But after knowing the answer, one couldn’t stand that only himself or herself was a pig. Thus, everyone deliberately didn’t tell other people the truth, making others feel sick with curiosity. Then they just told them the truth reluctantly, so a group of “pigs” were born. On the analogy of this, there were more and more “pigs” in Degenerate God Ravine.

Yang Xiao saw what was behind it and was happy to make another group of “pigs”.

“Boss, do you think they are actually a bunch of pigs?” Feng Xi laughed and fell back in the arms of King of the Netherworld. It was really fun. It was estimated that Degenerate God Ravine would soon become a pig farm.

“Yes, they are all pigs. Then you’re the owner of the pig farm, Xiao Xi.” King of the Netherworld hugged him and guessed what he was thinking when he saw Feng Xi’s smiling face.

“Ha ha, when we fatten them up, we’ll drag them out to sell them.” This result dissolved all the depression that Feng Xi had previously accumulated in his heart in the past few days, and then he got up, “Boss, how many days have we been here?”

“It will happen to be a month tomorrow.”

“It’s so fast. Oh dear! I have to go back soon since it’s been more than eighty years outside,” Feng Xi did not expect that a month would have passed in the blink of an eye. He still had a lot to deal with in the outside world, and he would not be able to do them in time like this. So, he immediately threw away the jar in his hand.

“Aren’t you waiting for Ice Qilin and Wuya?” King of the Netherworld pulled him over, took out a piece of prepared handkerchief, and wiped off the wine stain from Feng Xi’s face.

“I won’t wait for them anymore. Ice Qilin clearly said that he would come to pick me up on the ninth day. In the end, he still haven’t emerged. He must have been playing happily with his man and forgotten about me. Since he is such an ungrateful guy, I don’t want to wait for him anymore,” Feng Xi said angrily. Then he really started packing up and prepared to secretly leave with King of the Netherworld before they came back.

King of the Netherworld smiled and said nothing, but his actions were consistent with Feng Xi’s.

Since what he had said went in one ear and out the other, he indeed had to teach them a lesson.

After that, Feng Xi ran quickly to bid farewell to the people in the Myemo Tribe. Although Nangong Yang and the others were reluctant to part with Feng Xi, who was such a scream after all, they knew that Feng Xi was a person outside Degenerate God Ravine and would have to go back home sooner or later. Therefore, they all expressed that he would be welcomed to come here again next time and let him remember to bring more spiritual fruit or other good things. He could forget coming here again, but he mustn’t forget bringing things with him.

Feng Xi gave them the middle finger immediately.

However, just as they were about to enter the black hole and return to the Ghost World, an anxious voice was heard from afar, “Feng Xi, wait for us!”

After hearing this voice, Feng Xi even quickened his pace to leave.
