The Domineering King of the Netherworld and His Sweetheart

43. Bottom Hitting the Ground

Don't go anywhere else?

So he was grounded?

'My leader, you are so petty! I have only been out twice! I knew that I have got myself in trouble and needed you to save me every time I went out, but it was still your duty to deal with the guys who bullied your buddy, right?'

'Once your buddy is respected, you, as my leader, will also feel more dignified, isn't that right?'

'Why was I grounded?!'

'I haven't even sold the Demon Egg that I stole!'

Feng Xi complained inwardly. However, the fact that he would be grounded was already settled, no matter whether he objected or not. Anyway, right now everyone outside was talking about him and lots of people had also seen what he looked like at that time. If he went out now, he would be recognized by others immediately. Therefore, he had to lie low for a period of time until the discussion about him wasn't that heated, just like last time!

This time Feng Xi clearly made a bigger stir than last time. After all, it was the first time to announce such sensational news that all the nether people were deprived of their noble identity.

God and Demon Kingdom must have received that big news too. By then, the thing about Feng Xi would only be spread more and more widely, which was no good for Feng Xi at all. Therefore, the King was being considerate towards Feng Xi by grounding the latter.

When the King brought Feng Xi back to the Palace quietly, everyone in the Flying Dragon Pavilion let out a sigh of relief. In the meantime, the people of the Three Families there rushed to send messages to their families as well as their forces in the God and Demon Kingdom. They had to make sure that all of their family members knew about this huge news.

The Netherworld was an enclosed world.

Normally, one could only enter the Netherworld through a certain tunnel or with a permit. As a result, the Netherworld actually developed at a slower speed than the God and Demon Kingdom and had only less than half of the population of the Kingdom.

The people of the Four Families were very sensible. They knew that staying in the Netherworld forever would provide them with the protection of the King of the Netherworld but would also hinder their development. Therefore, they had all sent their main forces to the God and Demon Kingdom thousands of years ago. Right now, they were all deeply rooted in that land.

The people of the Nether Family were still extremely arrogant in the God and Demon Kingdom since they had been protected by the King of the Netherworld. They always put on defiant looks wherever they went.

The people in the God and Demon Kingdom all hated the people of the Nether Family. However, none of them dared to provoke the nether people because of King of the Netherworld.

However, things were different now. The nether people lost their advantages as well as the protection from the King forever. The people who had been bullied by the nether people were happy to add insult to the latter's injury, including the people of the other three big families who had been deeply hurt by the nether people for the longest time, especially the Caia Family and the Sura Family which had higher combat effectiveness than the Nether Family but had to come off the second and the third best.

Now, they were all sending messages to their families in the God and Demon Kingdom.

The reason why Dark Nether Lord had rushed to the Netherworld from the God and Demon Kingdom was that he was well aware of the situation now.

Once the Nether Family lost their power and influence, the people who had been bullied by them would take revenge on them at once. The future of the Nether Family was on the hazard now, so he had to do anything he could regardless of his own pride.

However, the land of the God and Demon Kingdom was vast. Though Dark Nether Lord had tried his best, it still took him ten days to get to the Netherworld while in the middle of his journey he almost vomited blood from exhaustion.

He had to pass some checkpoints through the transmission portal, otherwise, his action would be regarded as breaking into the Netherworld without permission and he would be listed as wanted. Before, when Dark Nether Lord went through the portal, everyone was respectful to him. However, it seemed that they had known the news that the Nether Family had fallen into disgrace, so everyone was stalling him. Clearly, no one wanted him to come back so soon.

At last, Dark Nether Lord had to threaten them with his power. After all, he was a mighty lord. Despite the arrogance of the nether people, some of them were really powerful because of their congenital advantage.

Instead of going to the Nether Family, he headed straight to the Heaven Peak Palace.

Before, he had already learned about the whole story from Ming Hai who had been on the spot through the Black Crystal which was used for communicating. When he knew that all of this was caused by the son and daughter of Ming Zhen, he almost fell off from the sky.

Anyway, the huge mistake had already been made. The only thing Dark Nether Lord should do was asking King of the Netherworld to take back this order.

Ten days after what had happened in the Flying Dragon Pavilion, Dark Nether Lord finally arrived at the Heaven Peak Palace.

There was still a milk-white barrier outside the Heaven Peak Palace. The people outside of the Palace couldn't see what was inside or enter the Palace freely.

However, as a senior in the Nether Family, Dark Nether Lord had the right to enter the Heaven Peak Palace.

His noble identity had been deprived of by the King, but not his right. Therefore, Dark Nether Lord stepped into the Palace without needing to report.

With the scene around him getting twisted, he showed up on the steps of the Palace immediately. Before he could standstill, there was a flustered person bumping into him...

Dark Nether Lord never realized that someone in the Heaven Peak Palace would be so rash. He who was completely unguarded was knocked down right away in a very awkward posture. With a bam, he fell on his bottom...

Dark Nether Lord was totally stunned!
