The Domineering King of the Netherworld and His Sweetheart

39. Destined Disaster

Translator: Ning LL

The man’s gorgeous face showed glaring light. His eyebrows seemed to have never moved and the look in his eyes was calm but unfathomable. The most special thing was the silver gem on his forehead, which was very pure and dazzling. It must be the most brilliant gem in the world. As the gem gave off cold silver light, no one even dared to look at the man for the moment.

Even if the man didn’t do anything, he still gave others lots of pressure. Clearly, he was born with that imposing manner and years’ experience of being a king made him even more formidable. There were a lot of experts in the Flying Dragon Pavilion. However, they all couldn’t help but take a step back in fear while feeling astonished.

They didn’t know why they didn’t even dare to look at this man or move a bit due to his imposing manner. Who was this man?

None of those people knew who this man was, but they assumed he could be regarded as a super expert even in the God and Demon Kingdom. Some of those people had been lucky enough to meet Dark Nether Lord of the Nether Family. At that time, they highly respected Dark Nether Lord and felt thrilled the moment they looked at him.

However, now that a more powerful man had shown up, they finally realized that there was no limit in the universe. Then they felt that they still needed to broaden their horizon!

As everyone was wondering about the man’s background, all the administrative staff in the Flying Dragon Pavilion, people of the three families and the elders from the Nether Family all knelt down tremblingly with an awe-stricken look on their faces while saying to the man in a shivering voice, “Your Majesty King of the Netherworld!”

King of the Netherworld?

Hearing the familiar name that could never be forgotten, all the people present gasped for air. They seemed to be hit by a surge of horrifying waves.

That name was able to shock everyone in the Netherworld and God and Demon Kingdom. The orderly voices of those people were like thunders striking everyone’s ears.

Who could anticipate that King of Netherworld who seldom showed himself in public would appear in this place?

Oh my, was this a joke?

Although the King had shown up all of a sudden, the glaring light around him already drew everyone’s attention. The awe-inspiring aura of him and his perfect appearance both proved that he was the Deity above all the other Gods.

Some people even lost their sanity because they were overly shocked, such as the people from the Nether Family. However, there were also some people beginning to analyze the reason for the King’s arrival. Then they quickly remembered the rumors one year ago. At that time, King of the Netherworld declared there was a Queen in the Netherworld. After hearing that, everyone was similarly shocked. Although a year had passed, that memory was still engraved in everyone’s mind.

However, no one heard anything about the Queen ever since then. Although everyone was doubtful about that, no one dared to talk too much about it.

After a simple deduction, those people now realized that the only one that could let the King show himself was the boy who had shown up briefly one year ago. Now when they came to think about it, the boy who was in the arms of the King right now was around the same age with the boy who had appeared one year ago.

Since the people in the crowd were aware of that, the people in the Four Families who had lived for hundreds or even thousands of years would definitely know about the cause and effect of the whole thing with a simple guess. Everyone in the Four Families started to get frightened. However, the people of the Nether Family seemed to be the most awkward ones.

The people of the Nether Family including the ones that had been on the spot before and those that had rushed into the pavilion all saw it clearly that the people who had been kicked out by King of the Netherworld were the children of Ming Zhen, the leader of a collateral branch of the Nether Family. As they remembered the ending of Dongfang Ling’er, the daughter of the Prime Flamen, all the people of the Nether Family only felt desperate!

However, King of the Netherworld didn’t pay any attention to them at all. He held Feng Xi who seemed very dizzy in his arms and checked the boy’s body carefully. Then the King found that the boy wasn’t seriously harmed except for being dazzled by the light and suffering from physical exhaustion. After that, the King looked to others.

The gaze from the King gave invisible pressure to others. Everyone he glanced at felt their shoulders strangely heavy and didn’t even dare to breathe. An elder of the Nether Family knelt before King of the Netherworld while no one found that surprising anymore.

“Your Majesty, please don’t be angry. I, Ming Hai, will catch the disciples in our family who have offended you right away. Please give any punishments they deserve!”

After Ming Hai said that, some people of the Nether Family who were outside the pavilion immediately caught a man and a woman into the hall. After the man and the woman had been swept away by the King’s power, they were in a terrible state now. Half of their faces were red and swollen, which made them not as beautiful as before. With their faces deadly pale, they trembled fiercely as if they had fallen into a freezing cold pond. Their eyes were filled with scare because they had already known what kind of people they had offended. They went down on their knees with their faces shivering, not daring to say anything to beg for mercy. Even the people around them were able to hear the sound of their teeth shuddering.

“How dare you two offend His Majesty! Do you admit your guilt?”

Before Ming Hai confirmed the boy’s identity, he didn’t dare to make a random assumption. So he could only say that those two people had offended King of the Netherworld, and it made no difference anyway. Right now, Ming Hai was simmering with rage and thinking, ‘You two useless things! Don’t you know what kind of occasion this is? Why on earth have you attacked a stranger so randomly? Anyone with a brain would check the background of the boy first! What’s more, you two morons have attacked the boy in front of everyone. How did Ming Zhen teach his children? It seems I have to replace Ming Zhen with someone else as the leader.’

Now the man and the woman couldn’t utter a single word. Since they had offended King of the Netherworld, not only was their father unable to keep his position, but even Dark Nether Lord couldn’t save them. Then, the man and the woman, well aware of their situation, only showed a desperate look on their faces.

Since Ming Zhen didn’t get any responses from the two people from his family, he got angry right away. Then he turned around to say to King of the Netherworld, “Your Majesty, please rest assured. Our family will definitely give you a satisfactory answer. We’ll look thoroughly into this, please give me a few more days!”

With these words, Ming Hai’s heartbeat paused a bit. King of the Netherworld never spoke anything until now, so Ming Hai didn’t know what the King was thinking now. If he said something that irritated King of the Netherworld again, the future of the Nether Family would be in trouble then. Perhaps he might have to invite Dark Nether Lord over.

“People from the Nether Family, although you are the original habitats in this land, you have never treasured your exceptional advantages. You have committed murder so many times. I am very disappointed. Today, I declare that your superior identity will be deprived. From now on, everyone is born equal!”

The calm voice of King of the Netherworld slowly came through from the sky, sounding melodious and penetrating. Nearly everyone in the Netherworld heard his words which sounded gentle like the peaceful lake but was awe-inspiring. No one dared to listen to that calm voice with contempt, because it was from King of the Netherworld, the ruler of all the Gods!

Ming Hai fell onto the ground weak and limp with two hollow eyes. As expected, King of the Netherworld was enraged!

The voice of the King kept sounding by the ears of all the nether people, no matter where they were. They were overly shocked by the news. Even Dark Nether Lord who was in the God and Demon Kingdom fell to the ground from the chair in shock. However, next second, he rushed to the Netherworld awkwardly in front of all the Gods, regardless of his messy appearance and exalted identity.

Who would expect that the superior nether people who were proud of their identity would be degraded by the great ruler of the Netherworld?

At the moment, all the nether people got restless. The ones that didn’t know what had caused this felt as if they were struck by thunder. They knew that they would never be of the noble status again. Their pride was deprived by King of the Netherworld himself. However, there must be a reason for that. Someone must have irritated the King and caused all of this!

As those nether people were thinking of that, they all rushed to the Rest Night City no matter where they were. They had to figure out what had happened. Which despicable person had riled King of the Netherworld?!

Compared with the astonished nether people, the people from other races all roared to the sky happily after hearing that news. Overjoyed were the races which had been bullied by the nether race, the people who lived in misery because of the nether people and the families who had to make many concessions to the Nether Family.

Everyone that had been struggling with their lives under the oppression of the nether people all got tears of joy in their eyes. Some of them even burst out crying aloud, because they needed to give vent to all these years’ distresses. Some of them jumped and shouted crazily. In a word, none of them was unhappy!

In the meantime, they also decided to learn a lesson from this and not to follow the same old road like the nether people. In the future, they would treat others in a definitely equal way!

King of the Netherworld directly solved the problem plaguing the Netherworld for tens of thousands of years. This not only rendered the nether people speechless but also deterred the others races. In the future millions of years, everyone would bear this in mind and racial inequality would never appear!

King of the Netherworld didn’t pay any attention to the looks on everyone else’s faces but only looked quietly at the boy who had just waken up.

The boy’s appearance was actually an unexpected opportunity for the King since the latter had wanted to end the racial inequality in the Netherworld tens of thousands years ago. However, due to certain rules which even he couldn’t change, he never really put that thought into practice!

Last time in the center of the Market Area, King of the Netherworld found that Feng Xi’s fate actually contradicted the fate of the nether people. In other words, he and the nether people could never exist in one world!

King of the Netherworld didn’t know why the way of Heaven had made that happen. However, since the boy had been sent to him by the way of Heaven, there must be a reason. Thus the King didn’t do anything on purpose and only let everything happen as it should be.

Feng Xi was already fully awake right now. The moment he opened his eyes, he saw King of the Netherworld was holding him. Then he grinned with his two tiger teeth exposed, looking extremely adorable. Seeing that, King of the Netherworld couldn’t help but curve his thin lips. However, before the King gave a smile, Feng Xi interrupted him by shouting,

“Ah! My leader, God of Bad Luck is going to possess me! You have to drive him away!”
