Chapter 1730: Chapter 1761: I’ll Send You to the Yellow Springs Bridge First
“We’re all cultivators from the Netherworld; shouldn’t be that surprising, right?”
Li Xiaobai swallowed his saliva. To be honest, Baihe Boy was rather abnormal; even his fighting style was eerie.
The shamanistic dance effortlessly ignited the souls around it, a mysterious force was rioting in its surroundings.
“Baihe has no official post or authority over Netherworld matters, but the reverse is also true; the Netherworld ssengers, no one can manage Baihe Boy.”
“Overall, keep your distance. If there’s a chance, it’s best to slip away; this one can kill you twice.”
Yang Chen’s voice in his head was very solemn.
Not everyone can kill the sa person twice — first physically, then destroy their soul, not even allowing them to reincarnate.
In the scene, Black Impermanence sensed Baihe Boy’s seriousness and shouted sternly:
“Baihe, this is a matter decided by the Asura King and the King of Underworld. Are you truly going to interfere?”
“If you ruin things, aren’t you afraid of Netherworld questioning you?”
He only tried to intimidate, not confident enough to fight against the intruder, hoping to delay through dialogue, waiting for King of Underworld to co and save the day.
Baihe Boy grabbed the chains dancing across the sky; unlike the flas earlier, this ti the fla was pitch black, rushing along the chain straight toward Black Impermanence.
The black flas spread rapidly, like lightning covering Black Impermanence’s entire body in an instant. His heartrending screams echoed throughout the Ghost Gate; the flas couldn’t be extinguished and burned endlessly. In a matter of breaths, Black Impermanence’s figure shrank a circle.
“The Heavenly Officials execute; even with King of Underworld here, killing won’t be stopped!”
Baihe Boy casually twisted off Black Impermanence’s neck like a chicken and tossed it aside.
He then continued stepping and striding thodically towards Granny Liu’s room.
This scene shocked all the secret observers. Baihe Boy spoke for the first ti; he even disregarded King of Underworld and twisted off Black Impermanence’s head.
If there were further interference, the outco would likely be quite dire.
Behind the boulder, Black Impermanence’s head rolled over, Li Xiaobai ignored it.
“Lord Li, help out!”
The head opened its eyes and spoke.
“Whoa, a talking head!”
Li Xiaobai was startled; a head could actually be alive, and imdiately prepared to kick it away.
“Wait, wait, you ca with Baihe; you probably want to know what’s truly happening with Liu Family. Help with this head, I’ll tell you!”
Black Impermanence was frightened by Li Xiaobai’s gestures and scread repeatedly.
After a mont’s thought, Li Xiaobai held the head in his arms, asking, “Then please tell, what secret is Liu Family hiding? If not good, I’ll toss you back.”
“The secret of Liu Family cos from the higher-ups’ decision. I am just a taskfulist, lacking decision power. Frankly, I find this affair quite absurd.”
Black Impermanence’s head babbled, constantly talking inconsequentially.
Li Xiaobai grew impatient, picking up a rock to smash the head held in his arms.
The headless body stumbled from afar, clumsily crawling over to reclaim its head, reattaching it on its neck.
“I’m alive again!”
Black Impermanence exhaled a long breath, leaning against the backside of the boulder, full of fear.
The black flas earlier were too eerie; adhered and couldn’t be extinguished. If allowed to burn further, in a few minutes, he would completely vanish from the world.
“Impermanence Lord has reclaid a life; must be more careful in the future.”
Li Xiaobai said leisurely, those black flas were all too familiar to him; Hellfire. Back when the Immortal Gods Realm invaded the Central Origin Realm, he had once cast a cluster of Hellfire into a crack, not knowing into whose hands it landed.
After arriving in the Immortal Gods Realm, he found several others possessing this fire. Now, even Baihe Boy has Hellfire, hard to predict what the flas have undergone in this realm, and to what extent they’ve grown.
“Yes, I’ve done all I can; the higher-ups can’t bla .”
Black Impermanence nodded.
“You previously ntioned Liu Family’s secret was decided by the higher-ups; what does this an? Could it be so ambiguous relationship between King of Underworld and Liu Family?”
Li Xiaobai looked towards Black Impermanence, continuing the earlier topic.
After the earlier burning, Black Impermanence’s entire body was now in a phantom state, quite unstable, seemingly ready to collapse and dissipate at any mont.
“This… frankly, I don’t know much either; why not wait a bit for King of Underworld to co, Lord Li may ask him?”
Black Impermanence restored his body, stamring, unwilling to speak more.
Li Xiaobai reached out, produced a cluster of Hellfire, swaying it before his eyes: “Doesn’t the Lord think only Baihe Boy can kill you? Without truth, today you’re unlikely to walk out of the Liu Family Mansion.”
“Take it away; I’ll speak!”
Black Impermanence’s just-settled heart clenched again, panic flickered in his eyes.
“Tell from the beginning, not a word out of place.”
Li Xiaobai stowed away the fire; in a contest of strength, he might not even overco a small soldier of the Netherworld, but to intimidate, dealing with this freshly spared Black Impermanence ca easily.
“Actually, this starts from a year ago. That day, Liu Family’s daughter-in-law just got married; Granny Liu invited everyone within Ghost Gate.”
“It was grand; Liu Family was a major clan, almost no one dared ignore. Asura and King of Underworld attended to honor the event. Everything seed cordial, but after the banquet, King of Underworld did sothing absurd.”
Black Impermanence recalled, providing the truth, but speaking slowly; Li Xiaobai knew the guy did it intentionally, wanting King of Underworld to arrive before spilling the truth.
However, things were already settled. Baihe began a killing spree; no one could stop it.
“What absurd thing?”
“After several rounds of drinks, King of Underworld sohow appeared in the bride’s room.”
“Appeared in the bride’s room? Could it be the two engaged in such acts?”
“Exactly, at the mont the banquet ended, Liu Family’s cultivators and the groom were busy seeing off guests, no one noticed. Not until the groom entered the bridal chamber did the discovery occur. This was scandalous; King of Underworld didn’t want it known, hence suppressed the incident. Since then Liu Family’s daughter-in-law stayed indoors, and the groom never recovered, living as a walking corpse.”
Black Impermanence sighed softly, slowly stating.
“So that’s the hidden secret of Liu Family?”
Li Xiaobai asked in a lackluster manner.
“Indeed, this concerns Netherworld’s reputation; it’s a major affair!”
“Lord Li knew about this; isn’t he surprised?”
Black Impermanence comnted.
“What’s there to be surprised about, regarding human ethics? Besides what you said ans nothing to . I don’t even want to bother.”
“Why is Lord Li investigating Liu Family then?”
Black Impermanence widened his eyes, appearing very astonished.
“Naturally, to exorcise demons.”
“Use your little brain; do you genuinely think King of Underworld seizing soone’s bride would alarm Baihe Boy, or concern ?”
“Impermanence Lord’s loyalty to King of Underworld is evident; I’ve realized it. Since you’re unwilling to speak truthfully, then please proceed on Yellow Springs Bridge ahead; later King of Underworld will accompany you!”
