The Domineering King of the Netherworld and His Sweetheart

10. The Coveted Gem

The boy fell onto the ground from the dreamland next to the foot of King of the Netherworld, making a huge bang.

If it were not for the soft grassland, the boy might have already got his nose broken.

However, before he could cry out, he climbed up from the ground quickly and rubbed the goosebumps on his arms violently.

"I was scared to death!" The boy patted his chest while comforting himself. He already forgot about his aching butt and only stood there with his heart still fluttering with fear. King of the Netherworld stared at him in silence. The Desire Sea was like the King's consciousness sea, hence no need to feel everything intentionally. What had happened to the boy in the Desire Sea had already sprung to the King's mind. However, what surprised the King a bit was that the boy broke out from his illusion before the dreamland had really taken effect.

That was something that had never happened in the Desire Sea ever since it was created.

A slight sigh reverberated in the sky, then was blown away and disappeared...

"You don't hate them?"

While he was still in shock, the boy heard a voice coming through from above his head.

Then he raised his head. From this angle, he found the silver gem on the man's forehead seeming even brighter and more attractive. Then he asked in a daze, "Hate what?"

"You brother murdered you. You missed the chance of being the emperor and an Immortal. You don't hate them for all those things?"

The sound came through from all the directions. The boy didn't saw the man open his mouth, but had a feeling that the man was the one who had been talking.

Then he pondered for a while and murmured, "I don't want to be a poker-faced man!"

He didn't disdain the throne. But he was scared to see himself sitting on the throne.

He was totally poker-faced in that scene. It was like someone else had owed him millions of ounces of silver.

What's more, with that golden dragon pattern robe, he looked so bright like a golden ball. That annoying face really looked ridiculous.

However, before he could laugh at himself, he had been frightened to death by another scene. He had seen blood oozing from his nose and mouth. He really hadn't any other thoughts except for scare. So he had actually been scared out of the dreamland.

Moreover, he had already seen the reason for his death on the Three Lives Stone. Therefore, the second time when he saw that scene, he hadn't even any reaction.

"My leader, let's get out of this place now! I was nearly scared out of my wits! How come the things that had happened in my previous life showed up again! That's so weird!"

The boy held the leg of the King tightly while looking around, fearing that something strange would pop up again.

Each person would see different scenes in the dreamland of the Desire Sea.

The thing one desired most would appear in the dreamland and that was a lure to that person. The only way to get out of the dreamland was to resist that lure. Otherwise, that person would become the manure of the flower sea!

However–

There was still one important thing that the King of the Netherworld had ignored!

The boy didn't want the power or influence. The thing he wanted was– the silver gem on the King's forehead!

The boy wasn't greedy for fortune. But he loved the fortune. Therefore, he would definitely get the thing he liked...

The reason why he had been willing to be the sidekick of the King was that he wanted that dazzling gem.

However, the Desire Sea was the consciousness sea of the King of the Netherworld and couldn't copy the silver gem because any object that was related to the King couldn't be copied in the Desire Sea. So, under the circumstances like this, the Desire Sea would choose a random scene to display on its own.

That was what had happened in the dreamland!

Suddenly, the gem on the King's forehead flickered. As he waved his hand, the space began to twist and the flying petals all changed into...
