Chapter 1110: Chapter 263: East Wei Gate
The present Netherworld is not the Netherworld of the past.
The words of the Four-direction Netherworld Jiao still echo in her ears, from its tone, it seed as though sothing had happened in the Netherworld.
Yet before Yun Sheng could ask again, the Four-direction Netherworld Dragon’s bone wings behind it cracked open with a bang, and all at once, spread wide open.
The wings trembled, the Four-direction Netherworld Jiao was like a massive skyship, soaring into the sky.
It kept flying up fast, Yun Sheng had to hold onto Bo Bo, lying together with Gold Coin on the Four-direction Netherworld Jiao’s back.
A worthy Boundary Beast indeed, its flying speed unmatched, not even Wuji Continent’s fastest skyship could compare.
It was like a white lightning bolt, piercing through the clouds, ascending tens of thousands of ters high.
Above ten thousand ters, a chant rang from the Netherworld Jiao’s mouth, clouds roiled, and a Magic Array from the Netherworld appeared.
Within the Magic Array, a long black spear pierced into the sky with a puff.
The sky seed torn apart, revealing a crack.
The Four-direction Netherworld Jiao burrowed into the crack.
"Dear Master, Kirin, this should be your first journey across realms. Between realms, there’s Gang Wind and Evil Qi, very dangerous. Be careful, oh. It’ll take us about a day and night to reach Wei City," Bo Bo warned Yun Sheng and Gold Coin.
After speaking, Bo Bo swooshed into the Beast Language Ring.
The sound of a wind like it ca from Hell filled the ears, Yun Sheng and Gold Coin felt a sense of drifting between worlds.
They kept traversing in the darkness.
After an unknown duration, the voice of the Four-direction Netherworld Jiao once again appeared.
"Ahead is the Netherworld entrance, East Wei Gate. There are two major gates in Netherworld, East and West. East for felons is East Wei Gate, while West Wei Gate is for souls. East Wei Gate opens each morning and closes at dusk. You two, little Jiao can only deliver you here. Hope your Netherworld journey will be without incidents," Four-direction Netherworld Jiao retracted its wings and descended quickly.
With a boom similar to a plane landing, Yun Sheng’s stomach churned before she opened her eyes, indeed, a faintly visible door appeared among the clouds ahead.
This door differs from the Human World’s gates. It towers high into the clouds, ford not by stone or tal, but by a heap of unknown Beast Bone.
Massive amounts of blue-purple Netherworld Fire float around the gate, illuminating the city gate.
Above the city gate hangs a plaque with the words East Wei Gate written in bold characters.
The characters are Iron Claw Golden Hook, exuding dominance.
East Wei Gate is where felons exiled to the Netherworld must arrive; they register here and cross to truly enter the realms of the Netherworld.
The Four-direction Netherworld Jiao, as the Netherworld’s envoy, is only in charge of transporting people here.
Yun Sheng and Gold Coin thanked the Four-direction Netherworld Jiao, which with a dragon’s roar pierced through the clouds and disappeared in the horizon.
Yun Sheng and Gold Coin stood outside East Wei Gate; it was just before dawn, there was still so ti till the gate opened.
Yun Sheng observed the people ahead and behind her, they much like Yun Sheng and Gold Coin, bore the magic mark symbolizing a felon.
Yun Sheng and Gold Coin followed the crowd, walking towards East Wei Gate.
Yun Sheng thought about it; new to the Netherworld, knowing nothing, it was best to inquire about the Netherworld’s situation first.
"Brother," Yun Sheng approached, ready to ask.
As the person turned and looked at Yun Sheng, they glanced twice and recoiled as if seeing a ghost.
Yun Sheng wanted to ask more, but the person kept repeating, "I don’t know anything," and backed away frantically.
Frustrated, Yun Sheng tried to find soone else, but everyone scattered, faces filled with inexplicable fear.
What’s going on?
Yun Sheng was perplexed, her first instinct was to touch her face, yes, still the sa face—she was considered quite a beauty on Wuji Continent, but how co everyone in the Netherworld reacted like seeing a ghost?
Could it be that the Netherworld’s people have a warped sense of beauty?
"Bo Bo, dear master, it’s not your fault. They’re not scared of you, but rather of Kirin," Bo Bo lazily perched on Yun Sheng’s shoulder.
Reminded by Bo Bo, Yun Sheng noticed those avoiding her were shrinking back, glancing behind her.
And who else was behind her but Gold Coin.
"Bo Bo, it’s all that stupid Jiao’s fault for not explaining clearly. Kirin carries a heavy sentence, marked with a Thousand-slash felon tattoo. In the Netherworld, such felons have the right to reign as overlords. This is East Wei Gate, with newcors to the Netherworld – they naturally fear encountering Kirin," Bo Bo explained to Yun Sheng.
In the Netherworld, the strongest rule the roost, the more people you kill, the more feared you beco, and no one dares provoke you.
"Cough, Night Fox, let’s make a deal, for now, stay in the Beast Language Ring. You see, with you by my side, it’s hard to even ask questions," Yun Sheng looked at Gold Coin with a face full of grievance.
Gold Coin rolled his eyes dissatisfied, clearly saying: Not my fault.
With no choice, Gold Coin went into the Beast Language Ring.
Just then East Wei Gate opened, and Yun Sheng followed a group of newcors into the Netherworld, heading towards East Wei Gate with Bo Bo.
Though the journey to the Netherworld was long, entering East Wei Gate was relatively simple.
Yun Sheng only needed to show her felon mark when entering East Wei Gate.
While registering, Yun Sheng noticed many heading towards Wei City possessed noteworthy cultivation, like the Martial Artist ahead of her, his strength reached Martial Saint.
And the Mage behind her emitted strong Dark Mage waves, cultivation asurable against a Sky Mage.
When it was Yun Sheng’s turn, a Skull Soldier squad leader approached.
His hollow eyes scanned Yun Sheng’s magic mark briefly, confird without error, and let Yun Sheng proceed inside.
Once Yun Sheng and Bo Bo passed East Wei Gate, in the golden palace of Nether River, a Crystal Ball reflected their images.
A tall man with sensual honey-colored skin stared at the pink fluffy Demon Beast perched on Yun Sheng’s shoulder.
Under blade-like brows, his eyes revealed reds amidst blacks, long hair carelessly draped on his shoulder, wild yet defiant.
After spotting Bo Bo, the man’s high nose scrunched, letting out a short cold snort.
"Achoo, so cold! Eek, in this ghost place called the Netherworld, you can’t even see the sun," Bo Bo, perched well on Yun Sheng’s shoulder, suddenly felt a strange sensation, and sneezed loudly.
