The Domineering King of the Netherworld and His Sweetheart

9. The Dreamland in the Flower Sea

Translator: Ning LL

The boy’s smiling face was reflected in the black pupils of King of the Netherworld.

Now that the boy had fixed the main affair of his life, he finally had the chance to observe his surroundings.

As he saw the endless flower sea and a huge flower in front of him, he suddenly opened his eyes and mouth widely, becoming completely motionless.

He was such a small existence comparing to the huge flower.

“What is this place? Why there are so many flowers? Where’s the exit?” Though the flowers were beautiful, the boy obviously cared more about if he could get out.

It took him so hard to have a leader, he didn’t want to be trapped here.

“This is my world!” King of the Netherworld stated that indifferently. As he was saying that, the flowers all burst into bloom. When the breeze blew over the boy’s ears, he even felt that he could hear the flowers’ laughter.

The boy shook his head and assumed that he must have heard that wrong.

“Then how can we get out? You have to take me with you!”

The boy was afraid that the man would leave him alone. If his leader ran away without him, he could only cry under all those flowers.

As the king took a step forward, there was a stretch of green land appearing under his feet. The green land kept extending forward along with his steps like a green carpet. In no time, the green carpet was already a thousand miles long with lots of other green carpets spreading to all the directions.

The boy saw the extensions being totally irregular. However, the king was actually employing an ancient illusion art.

In other words, the whole flower sea was actually a huge illusion art.

It would be very lucky for someone to be able to jump out from the illusion. However, if one was drowning in the illusion, he would be beyond redemption.

“The exit is at the place where your heart goes. Follow your heart, sense the aura in the air and ignore the temptation from your own desires. When you are able to break the restraint of the flower sea, everywhere is your way out. Let’s see if you can resist the temptation here!” King of the Netherworld pointed to all the directions. Then the world started to be lively along with his movements.

The boy was pushed onto the green carpet. Before he could make a protest, the scene in front of him completely changed.

The Heaven Phoenix Dynasty had lots of legendary and outstanding emperors, some were brutal, some were benevolent, some loved the people…

Some of them might not be perfect and had bad reputations. But it was no doubt that all the emperors of the Heaven Phoenix Dynasty were prominent men who had created incomparable amount of fortune. That was how the powerful Heaven Phoenix Kingdom had been created.

It was the most powerful kingdom among the seven kingdoms on the Green Feather Land. Over hundreds of years, the Heaven Phoenix Kingdom had dominated the world, holding other kingdoms in awe.

In a flourishing dynasty like that, the throne was coveted by lots of people. Emperor Phoenix in this age had eighteen children, fifteen of whom were princes and three were princesses.

Therefore, which one of many of the princes would take the throne became the focus of attention.

There was a Kingdom’s Tutor in the Heaven Phoenix Kingdom. Others also called him ‘half an immortal’.

It was said that he had never made fault in telling fortune over a hundred years. Therefore, Emperor Phoenix asked him to predict which son of him would inherit the throne and create brilliancy to the Heaven Phoenix Kingdom.

At that night, a shooting star fell to the earth! That was the day when the boy had passed away.

The Kingdom’s Tutor predicted that the future emperor had already deceased. He also said that after ten years, the Heaven Phoenix Kingdom would decay.

After saying that, the Kingdom’s Tutor had passed away at Wei Hour (A quarter to 2 o’clock in the afternoon) on July the seventh in the thirteenth year of Emperor Phoenix. The whole nation mourned his death!

However, as the boy watched the scene in a daze, he suddenly saw piping times of peace.

The boy saw himself sitting in the throne in a golden dragon robe, overlooking everyone in a high rack.

A voice kept reverberating by his ears, claiming that if his brother hadn’t set him up, he would have been the exalted Emperor Phoenix! He would have been the lofty emperor who could control the fate of the Heaven Phoenix Kingdom and create unprecedented grand occasion. What’s more, he would have stepped on the golden ground and become an Immortal!

However, the boy couldn’t be any of that because of his brothers’ jealousy toward him.

Then, the scene of him being hit by a coach showed up again. His ending was dying miserably with his nose and mouth bleeding.

If he could start over again…

“Ah…” With a huge bang, the boy screamed while falling out from his illusion.
