The Domineering King of the Netherworld and His Sweetheart

351. Snip the Flood Dragon

Translator: 飞弹

The Ravine of Cloud River was split into the north pole and the south pole by the Sky River.

The door of the Demon World was located at the south pole, while the door of the Heaven World was situated at the north pole. The width of the Sky River was more than 300 meters, but for the cultivators who could fight in the air, this distance was not a big deal.

As long as he was careful not to fall into the Sky River, it would be fine.

However, some people had done enough to defend themselves just in case, such as the son of the Heaven World, Di Tianxiang, and other people with higher status. It was prevention, to put it mildly, but actually they were just  afraid of death.

This Heaven World could not hold a candle to the Demon World on this point, because no one in the Demon World was afraid of death. They would always rush to the front line where there was chaos. They were so firm and unyielding that many people had great regard for their courage.

However, there was still one issue one needed to direct his attention to when fighting above the Sky River.

In addition to the high corrosion, the water in the Sky River also emitted white toxic fumes. This kind of gas was visible and produced no odor like air. The slightest little bit of inattention could make people inhale it, so it was very dangerous.

Once someone inhaled the toxic fumes, the magical power in his body would become violent. Finally, the vein couldn’t bear it and he would explode to death. Therefore, the Demon World and the Heaven World also called this toxic fumes Unscented Fragrance.

It made sense that things would mutually reinforce and neutralize each other.

Although the water of the Sky River would produce toxic gas, the fumes could only flow above the Sky River. Once they drifted further, the toxic fumes would automatically disappear, or they would be disintegrated into non-toxic gas.

The Demon World and the Heaven World drew a blank in their analysis of the toxic fumes of the Sky River before according to this clue.

Only the powerhouses on the level of Great Heaven God dared to fight for a long time above the Sky River. As for those on the level of Lesser Heaven God, they could only hold on for one hour at most.

Feng Xi’s cultivation level was Great Heaven God, so Mo Feihan dared to call him over. He was also on the level of Great Heaven God, but it was four stars lower than that of Feng Xi.

“The Cloud River is really peculiar that it would actually be toxic. Does it prove the legendary saying that beautiful things always have thorns?” Feng Xi stared fixedly at it.

“Why do I remember that beautiful women always have thorns?” Mo Feihan frowned.

“Is there such a saying?” He was actually talking nonsense.

“…Haven’t you heard of it?”

“I’ve never heard of it,” Feng Xi shrugged.

Mo Feihan didn’t know what to say.

Looking at Mo Feihan’s speechless expression, Feng Xi immediately snickered and ran away. In his memories of his previous incarnation, he knew that someone had said ‘Don’t believe in women, especially the beautiful ones’. According to Feng Xi’s understanding, beautiful women were equal to beautiful things, such as Di Tianhua. So their thorns would prick others.

After making a fool of Mo Feihan, Feng Xi returned to King of the Netherworld.

Because of King of the Netherworld’s special identity, although his face had changed into a strange one now, Mo Feihan did not dare to trifle with him. He had saved him a place behind the Demon World army. If one didn’t pay attention to it, he couldn’t see it.

Half an hour later, the roll of deafening  drums was finally heard.

The sound of the war drums didn’t stop until they beat the drums sixteen times. On the opposite side of the Sky River, the people in the Heaven World were all gathered. The most dazzling ones were the four men whose appearances were widely different standing in front of them. They were from the Ocean Family who had been in the limelight for more than half a month. The Ocean Family’s people were quite arrogant that they didn’t come until the last moment. The green-haired man with verdant eyes, who was the leader of the group, glanced at Mo Feihan opposite scornfully. It was not provocation, but superior disdain, as if Mo Feihan was already a loser in his eyes.

No wonder they would be so arrogant.

Ever since the stunning defeat half a month ago, the Demon World had not taken up the gauntlet in the face of the provocation of the Heaven World. In their opinions, the people of the Demon World was afraid of them, so they didn’t dare to come out.

But people who understood war knew that if they took up the gauntlet since they were not sure of the battle, they were acting on a silly impulse, which would just make mindless sacrifices. And only the real generals would understand the principle of ‘knowing both the enemy and yourself’, so before they got the dope on their enemies and figure out their enemies’ strength, the Demon World would never recklessly accept the battle.

The first person in the Heaven World to fight was the companion of the green-haired man, named Hai Xiong. He was on the level of five-star Great Heaven God. Because his was actually an ocean beast, his body was so strong that ordinary magic weapons couldn’t hurt him.

“Cowards, are you finally willing to come out? This time, I will definitely give you a good reception. So is there anybody of you cowards who wants to fight with me?!”

Hai Xiong’s resonant voice instantly rang out above the Sky River and reached the ears of the Demon World’s people. Since he kept calling them cowards, he was deliberately provoking the Demon World and making them taken down a peg.

They didn’t need the Ocean Family’s people to evaluate whether they were cowards or not. Although everyone was angry, they didn’t rush forward on impulse because Mo Feihan had warned them long ago.

“Little Han, what he says is really obnoxious,” Feng Xi sat on King of the Netherworld’s lap and looked at Mo Feihan who looked calm.

“He can only be arrogant for the time being,” Mo Feihan said confidently.

“Then who do you want to ask to fight with him?” Feng Xi asked expectantly.

“What, do you want to fight with him?” If so, he would be a big fish in a small pond, although Mo Feihan didn’t want to describe Feng Xi like this.

“I’m not interested in him,” Feng Xi waved his hand. That man had got a great bod and he was also not the chief protagonist in the battle, who was of no interest to Feng Xi at all.

“The physical defense of the Ocean Family’s members is very high. I heard that you have forged a lot of magic weapons. Is there anyone of them that can hurt the ocean beasts?” Mo Feihan knew that Feng Xi was an alchemist but he had never seen him doing it with his own eyes. He just heard of it from Ming Qingyu and the others.

Feng Xi was stunned and suddenly an idea occurred to him, “Wait, I remember there seems to be one that can work.” After he finished, he started to search through the ring. After a while, he finally found it in the corner, “Look, this is the work I’m most proud of. Since you want it, I’ll give it to you!”

Feng Xi then stuffed the magical weapon into Mo Feihan’s hand.

After a long time, Mo Feihan regained his composure, “Is this the work you’re most proud of?”

He held the magical weapon Feng Xi gave him and looked at it in disbelief.

Many people also noticed it. When they saw the magical weapon, they all strained their eyes instantly. It had golden lines and was compact and smooth. It looked as if it was made of gold. Most people would rarely associate it with the magical weapon because of its appearance, but what really gave people the illusion was that this magical weapon was just a pair of scissors!

“Of course, don’t be taken in by its exquisite appearance. In fact, it is a magical weapon of the top quality whose size can be changed. When I first made this pair of scissors, I have spent a lot of good things on it. The materials inside are very precious. A mere body of the ocean beast can be cut into two parts by it easily. If you don’t believe me, you can have a try later.” Feng Xi explained.

Mo Feihan knew that what Feng Xi said was probably true, so he gave the small scissors to Gu Mu beside him.

Gu Mu was his subordinate and he was Gu Tian’s brother. The two brothers were his capable assistants left by his grandfather, and they were both very strong. Gu Mu’s cultivation level was the same as that of the Ocean Family’s member above the Sky River that they were both on the level of five-star Great Heaven God. If they really fought, they would be level-pegging with each other. However, just because the bodies of the Ocean Family’s members were too strong, once he showed his real body, Gu Mu would be on the back foot. The two of them had a fight before and Gu Mu sustained minor injuries.

Gu Mu took the small scissors and Feng Xi told him how to use it.

The small scissors were different from ordinary magical weapons. Feng Xi always hated that the magical weapons had to be refined before they could go live. He liked the kind of magical weapon that could be used directly after one took it. So he had deliberately discussed it with King of the Netherworld before. Later, he forged the small scissors. As long as one remembered some pithy formulae, he could use it.

Hearing that it could be used without refining, Gu Mu felt it quite strange. Their childe did not tell them who the young boy and the man were, but the way their childe treated the two of them made them shocked, especially when their childe asked the young boy for magical weapons while the young boy took it out without even hesitation.

Gu Mu couldn’t guess who the two were. He only knew that the relationship between their childe and the two of them was unusal.

Since their childe believed them, Gu Mu also had no reason to suspect them. With the attitude of having an attempt, he flew towards Hai Xiong, who was still clamoring.

Since the two of them had already fought once, they were quite familiar with both sides’ martial arts. They quickly fought with each other. In order to humiliate the Demon World, Hai Xiong showed his real body after the battle had only lasted for less than a quarter of an hour. It was a green flood dragon, its huge body covering almost half of the sky above the Sky River.

In this regard, Gu Mu didn’t immediately take out his small scissors. Instead, he used his nimble body to contend with the flood dragon. It seemed that he was fleeing in panic by the flood dragon’s attack. In fact, only the real observant people could tell that the flood dragon hadn’t hit him until now, and the reason why Gu Mu moved around was to find an opportunity.

Due to the fact that he couldn’t hit Gu Mu all the time, the flood dragon finally got angry.

At this moment, Gu Mu finally found the opportunity. The small scissors that Gu Mu took out was originally similar in size to a palm, but suddenly it was magnified thousands of times, and the dazzling gold light made the flood dragon subconsciously block its eyes.

It was just the moment that Gu Mu was waiting for. The huge scissors opened and were about to snip the flood dragon’s body…
