The Domineering King of the Netherworld and His Sweetheart

38. Boy with Boundless Merits

“God of Bad Luck?”

Hu Hanshan shouted that. Clearly he had already seen God of Bad Luck who was shooting himself toward them. Since Hu Hanshan had been possessed by God of Bad Luck for thousands of years, he was the only one that could see the true body of God of Bad Luck while others could only see this God through the Crystal Ball.

Feng Xi who couldn’t see where the God of Bad Luck was didn’t even know where to dodge. He only heard the anxious voice of God of Books sounding by his ear, “Master, you need to dodge right away. He is in front of you now…”

Feng Xi reacted very fast. He jumped right away and tried to hide behind Hu Hanshan. However, the latter reacted even more quickly than him and had already disappeared. After all, the experience of suffering bad luck for a thousand years had already been engraved in his mind and haunted him all the time. As a result, the moment Hu Hanshan saw God of Bad Luck, he ran ever faster than Feng Xi.

The excited God of Bad Luck approached Feng Xi in no time while screaming. He seemed to have already seen great good fortune saying hello to him. Then God of Bad Luck bumped Feng Xi right away… However, suddenly Feng Xi’s body started to give off golden light. After that, a thin and light golden film entirely wrapped the boy…

God of Bad Luck who never expected that knocked into the golden light with his entire body. Then the bump caused a glaring light…

God of Bad Luck was a Spiritual God in this world. He existed in the world ever since there were human beings. However, his energy was negative. That was why the one possessed by him would be unlucky. However…

As the saying went, “Extremes in fortune and misfortune would find their own mean”.

Once a person or a country had reached the extreme of their fortune, they would definitely take a bad turn, and vice versa. Therefore, Yin and Yang had appeared in the world together and neither of the two was dispensable. In a word, the negative energy of God of Bad Luck was able to counteract the positive energy and which was stronger would finally prevail!

That was why God of Bad Luck still rushed toward Feng Xi without hesitation even though he had already seen the golden light all over Feng Xi’s body. He was God of Bad Luck who was born ages ago and had already gathered countless negative energy. So he was confident that he would be able to pierce the golden thin film and possess Feng Xi…

However, that was only his wishful thinking. The reality was rather cruel!

When God of Bad Luck and Feng Xi bumped into each other, the negative energy in God of Bad Luck’s body began to decrease rapidly right away. After only a short while, half of his negative energy was counteracted. As everyone heard a squeak, there was a mouldy and green thing hitting the gate heavily as if it had bounced off something. Then, that green thing which had already turned into a pie slipped down from the gate and fell onto the ground with a bang…

No one knew what had happened. However, they still kept a distance from that thing subconsciously because they could sense lots of negative energy from that thing and even felt that their own Spiritual Energy was vaguely influenced.

After nearly ten thousand years’ negative energy of God of Bad Luck was dispersed by the golden light, he lost his ability of staying invisible. Therefore, now everyone was able to see him.

However, this was not the end…

After the golden light in Feng Xi’s body was stimulated by God of Bad Luck, the negative energy completely unleashed the power of the way of Heaven in Feng Xi’s body. The film around him got thicker and thicker and enveloped Feng Xi’s entire body at last. A dazzling golden beam of light rushed to the sky and pierced a hole in the white clouds. Even the sky seemed to be pierced open…

After that, the air above the Rest Night City was suddenly suffused with an ancient and eternal pressure. In no time, the pressure spread to the whole Netherworld. The earth began to tremble slightly and the mist outside the Netherworld was dispelled. After that, the true form of the Netherworld as well as its exit and entrance which were as long as the ladders all showed up.

The strong pressure was mixed with a roar which sounded by everyone’s ears like a warning. Suddenly, even the God and Demon Kingdom was startled. Everyone raised their head and looked at the splendid golden light in the sky. No word was able to describe how shocked they were.

Lord of the Transmigration Palace that was at the juncture of the Underworld and the Ghost World wasn’t as astonished as the others and only spoke gently as if he were murmuring to himself, “So it did have happened?”

After the golden light had enveloped the boy for fewer than three seconds, everyone only felt something blurring their eyes. Most of them couldn’t stand it and closed their eyes. Only until the golden light which was given off by the boy became not that dazzling did they open their eyes.

At this moment, all the senior administrative staff came over at a fast speed. After swarming into this place through the gate, they saw Feng Xi who was standing in the middle of the crowd. They also felt the pressure around the boy. However, no matter how shocked the people were, they still couldn’t help but get greedy…

“Boundless Merits! That’s Boundless Merits!”

Someone already shouted in shock with an excited look that could not be hidden. It was said that anyone that killed the host of the Boundless Merits could obtain all of the Boundless Merits as well as the sins of that host. How many sins the host had committed was very important.

That man’s words drew everyone else’s attention. The ones that had just worn confused looks now were enlightened. Some showed greed, some sighed, some pitied Feng Xi and others felt sorry for him…

There were lots of people attending the test, including the people from the Four Families. The ones that had rushed to the Flying Dragon Pavilion even included the people from the arrogant Nether Family. They were the original habitants in the Netherworld with particularly favourable natural conditions. However, exactly due to that reason, none of the people from the Nether Family could have Boundless Merits.

As the saying went, “You can not have your cake and eat it too”.

Everyone had a tacit understanding that the people of the Nether Family had been looking for the one with Boundless Merits. Their purpose was very obvious, but others never dared to say it out loud.

More and more people started to gather around in this place. After the man and the woman from the Nether Family who had disdained Feng Xi before saw the Boundless Merits in him, they both got covetous right away. Without making any eye contact, they nearly pounced on Feng Xi at the same time, with obvious murderous intention in their eyes.

The people from the other three families saw that and cursed the man and the woman’s crafty behaviors secretly with pitiful looks in their eyes. However, it was already too late to rush over. It was clear that although the boy had abundant Spiritual Energy, he couldn’t employ any profound magical arts. So there was no way he could defeat the two people. Perhaps he would be dead right away.

Others sighed that such a good boy would have to die…

However, when those people were still shaking their heads, they suddenly heard a loud sound. Then, there were two loud bangs sounding in the Flying Dragon Pavilion. Everyone raised their heads to have a look, seeing a white and a pink figure crossing the air with their screeches…

Bam, bam…

Everyone was stupefied to hear the thunder-like sound of something falling on the ground!

After the people in the crowd and the people who had just rushed into the pavilion found the two figures in the air, they were all dumbstruck by the sudden change! The whole Flying Dragon Pavilion fell into silence!

Under the startled gaze of everyone, a tall and straight figure showed up beside the boy…
