He believed his lifespan had long since transcended the Three Realms—no one had the power to dictate his life or death. And yet, the King of Hell was being utterly ridiculous. Just because he wrote his na in the Book of Life and Death, he thought he could determine his fate?
"King of Hell, I rely played along with your little sche. Did you actually think your Book of Life and Death could sentence to death? I'm not that easy to kill."
"Ye Tian, you did it on purpose… You knew from the start you wouldn't die so easily, didn't you?"
The King of Hell stared at Ye Tian, suddenly realizing he'd walked into a trap. Ye Tian clearly wasn't going to die that easily, and it was now obvious—he ca here just to stir up trouble.
"Di Jun, you're alright too?"
"Of course I'm fine. Your Book of Life and Death trying to sentence to death? That's not going to happen!"
"This was all thanks to !" Ye Tian said smugly. "King of Hell, you owe us an explanation. Otherwise, there's no way this matter ends here."
"You want an explanation? Fine, I'll give you one. At this point, you're our greatest threat. That's the real reason we want you dead."
"Oh? And why's that?"
"Since the Golden List Livestream began, you've reaped countless benefits. The heavenly immortals, the Western Buddha Tathāgata, even I—we're all fed up with you. So yeah, it's ti for you to die!"
"You all hate that much?"
"That's right. As long as you're alive, none of us will have peace!"
Ye Tian was genuinely speechless. He hadn't expected things to escalate like this. So he replied, "Alright then. Since you've made it so clear, let say this—I'll never back down. If you want to stop from joining the Golden List, that's impossible. Not only will I keep participating, I'll win every single ti!"
"You—!"
"What, angry now? Good. That's exactly what I want!"
Then Ye Tian turned to Di Jun and said, "Since we're here, don't hold back. Smash everything that can be smashed. Let's vent this frustration properly!"
"Yes!"
Di Jun didn't hesitate for even a second. He imdiately began wrecking the place. After all, if others didn't show them any courtesy, why should they be polite in return?
"Stop them!"
The ghost soldiers surged forward, but no matter how many ca, they were powerless. Ye Tian and Di Jun's strength at this point was simply overwhelming.
"Hmph!"
"Trying to stop us? You clearly have no idea who you're dealing with!"
"Exactly! You think a few ghost soldiers are enough to take down? Who do you think I am? I'm way beyond anything you can handle now!"
Di Jun's combat power was insane. Even if he stood still, no one here could challenge him purely based on his physical strength. White Wuchang saw the destruction he was causing and shouted, "Would you stop already? What you're doing is a huge cri! This will definitely go on your permanent record!"
"Record it all you want. You planning to blacklist us now? If we were scared of that, we wouldn't be doing this. Right, Di Jun?"
"Exactly. We fear neither heaven nor earth. All we want right now is to stir up so chaos!"
So they kept smashing things. The King of Hell looked like he was on the verge of tears. If this went on, the entire Hall of the Underworld would be reduced to rubble.
But Ye Tian and Di Jun had no intention of stopping. The destruction continued.
Finally, the King of Hell pleaded, "Can't you at least show a little rcy?"
"Oh? Now you want rcy? Weren't you acting like you feared nothing just a mont ago? And now you're asking us to stop?"
"Just… show a little rcy. Next ti you visit, I'll treat you with the utmost hospitality."
Clearly, when brute force didn't work, he had to try softening them up.
"Alright then, apologize. If I feel you're sincere, maybe I'll forgive you. But if I sense even the slightest insincerity—forget it. You're not getting off the hook."
"What—?"
"What's wrong? Not willing? Then forget it. But I'll tell you this—I'm in a terrible mood right now. One more thing pisses off, and I swear I'll level this whole place!"
"…Fine. I apologize. I was completely in the wrong. Can you forgive now?"
"Di Jun, don't you think his apology sounded a bit… halfhearted?"
"Yeah, I thought so too. Didn't feel sincere at all. How about this—have him kneel and apologize."
"Mhm, good idea. In that case, kneel and apologize. Hurry up!"
The King of Hell had never been humiliated like this before. Glaring at Ye Tian, he growled, "You're taking this too far. I've already apologized—now you want to kneel? This is outrageous!"
"Oh? Asking you to kneel is outrageous? But what about when you erased our nas from the Book of Life and Death? Was that not outrageous? Look—treat with an inch of respect, I'll give you a mile. But if soone dares to wrong , I'll repay them tenfold. So what's it gonna be? If you don't kneel, I swear I'll tear your entire Underworld down!"
"You… you an it?"
"Of course I do. When I, Ye Tian, say sothing—I follow through!"
And this ti, Ye Tian was dead serious. He felt he had no choice—if this incident got out and he didn't respond decisively, he'd lose all face.
"So make a decision already. Stop hesitating, or I really will tear this place apart!"
"Alright… kneel, is it…?" The King of Hell sighed in defeat.
With Ye Tian and Di Jun—the two powerhouses—standing right there, he really had no way out. If he had any complaint, it was toward the Jade Emperor. If he hadn't issued the order, would he have ever thought to use the Book of Life and Death against Ye Tian?
And now? Not only had he failed, he'd backfired spectacularly.
He had well and truly shot himself in the foot.
