The superior Dark Nether Lord always valued his appearance and image.

However, this lord who was sensitive about his self-image was knocked down by a boy in front of the gate of the Heaven Peak Palace easily. The most important thing was that his butt hit the ground straight!

If others heard that huge sound of his butt touching the ground, they would be thrilled!

The color of Dark Nether Lord's face turned pale, then red, then green, and at last completely purple. He only heard thunder in his head with his face completely twisted and his eyes filled with blood streaks. Obviously, this man was simmering with rage.

"You..."

"Puff! Sorry, sorry, I didn't mean to. Are you all right, old man?"

The boy who had bumped into Dark Nether Lord stopped being flustered now. Although he also grimaced in pain with one of his hands covering his forehead, he still asked the condition of Dark Nether Lord politely. However, if he had managed to hide his titter at the beginning, the look on Dark Nether Lord's face would be nicer now.

Anyway, the Lord did have heard the boy's titter, and the look on his face turned even more vivid. As blood kept rushing to his brain, not only did his face turn totally red, but also his ears.

If anyone saw what was happening here, if anyone knew about this, Dark Nether Lord could imagine how those people were going to laugh at him. He, the powerful lord, had been knocked down by a weak boy so easily. Moreover, the place where he had been hit was the most sensitive part of his body. That was so absurd!

Dark Nether Lord still couldn't believe it. However, it was not something he could ignore because it did have happened just now.

"You nasty boy, where did you come from? Do you think you can do whatever you want here? How dare you run wildly in the Heaven Peak Palace?! You think you can afford to bother King of the Netherworld?"


Dark Nether Lord grabbed the boy's collar and shouted that fiercely, trying his best to hold back his anger.

Because of what had happened to the Nether Family, Dark Nether Lord was already annoyed enough and needed to vent his anger. This boy who had bumped into him just gave him an excuse to lose his temper. Therefore, Dark Nether Lord cursed in rage right now.

The boy was Feng Xi.

After he had been grounded by the King for ten days, he finally couldn't tolerate the loneliness and sneaked out when Uncle White did not pay attention to him. He ran in haste because he was afraid that he might be caught by his leader or Uncle White. However, the moment he got out of the Palace, he knocked into an old man. Feng Xi thought that it was not a big deal as long as he apologized. Little did he realize that the old man would grab his collar maliciously and abuse him.

Feng Xi found that quite strange.

He had stayed in the Palace for more than a year and was well aware of how many people there were in the Palace. Thus he was pretty sure that this old man didn't live in the Palace and must have entered from outside. Nonetheless, hadn't Uncle White said that anyone who wanted to enter the Palace needed to report first?

Why did this old man show up in the Palace all of a sudden?

'Is he a thief?' Feng Xi had that ridiculous thought again.

However, Feng Xi was not the only one that had such thoughts. Dark Nether Lord, having remembered the boy's stealthy look, regarded Feng Xi as a thief too since the latter never gave any explanation.

The Black Crystal could record images. However, since King of the Netherworld was in the Flying Dragon Pavilion, no one dared to take out the Black Crystal to record Feng Xi's appearance. Therefore, the poor Dark Nether Lord had no idea who Feng Xi was.

Regarding pearls as fish eyes would end up no good!


"Hey, old man, I merely bumped you. Why are you so angry? I didn't mean to do that and I have already apologized!"

Feng Xi twitched his nose, feeling this old man a bit unreasonable. Although this old man did have fallen on his butt in a very embarrassing way due to Feng Xi's bump, no one else knew about that. Why was this old man being so harsh?

What was more, Feng Xi always ran about like this and his leader never complained about it at all. Why did an old man who had just entered from outside scold him so straightly? Was this old man muddleheaded?

"You brat! You were mocking me, the Dark Nether Lord! You think I don't know that?" Dark Nether Lord only found this boy very unpleasant to his eyes.

"Hey, old man, I did have chuckled by accident. But you are not injured after all, and I wasn't really mocking you. Why are you being so petty!" Feng Xi grumbled that innocently.

"You..." Dark Nether Lord couldn't find a word to retort him, not knowing if he really was being petty like what Feng Xi had said.

"Eh, are you really injured?" Seeing the indignant look on the Lord's face, Feng Xi was a bit stunned. Then he looked Dark Nether Lord up and down and blurted out, "Does your butt hurt?"

"Perhaps I can check it for you." Feng Xi was very sensible to swallow those words which he had wanted to say.

The face of Dark Nether Lord turned entirely red again. He pointed to Feng Xi with one of his fingers, trembling as if he had a seizure while saying, "You, you, you... have no regard for elders and talked rubbish. Not only did you knock me down, you even called me 'old man'! How dare you! You little rat, you know nothing about courtesy or how to talk..."

Hearing that, Feng Xi couldn't help rolling his eyes. Suddenly, he remembered that now was a very critical moment when he couldn't waste his time here. It had been hard for him to escape and he didn't want to be caught back by Uncle White again. Therefore, in order to accomplish his escaping plan, Feng Xi didn't argue with the old man and only sighed, saying

"All right, it's all my fault. Can you let go of me now? I have something urgent to do!"


After saying this, Feng Xi even nodded and looked at Dark Nether Lord with a serious look.

Dark Nether Lord got furious right away. The boy's reaction was beyond the Lord's expectation. Since Feng Xi had already admitted his mistake, the Lord couldn't find fault with him. Otherwise, it would seem that the Lord really was making trouble out of nothing. With the Lord's face turning green, he still had no intention to let the boy go. If what had just happened was spread out by the boy, the Lord would be the only one that got humiliated! That was something Dark Nether Lord would never stand!

Thinking of that, Dark Nether Lord made up his mind that he would not let the boy get away while glaring at the boy's face ferociously.

"You..."

"Me? What?" Feng Xi who knew nothing about the Lord's murderous intention still waited for the latter's response.

Dark Nether Lord sneered. There was a black dark current appearing in his left palm. As he was about to shoot the rapid current into the boy's body, an aged and indifferent voice sounded all of a sudden,

"Forgive me for interrupting. Young Master, His Majesty is looking for you!"
