CHAPTER 1363: CHAPTER 1363: HELL’S EMPEROR’S WILL

"Little sister, where are you from?" Smiling Knife walked over, "This isn’t a place you should be."

"Beauty, what’s your surname?" Feng Yujian had a smile that sent chills down one’s spine.

"Disgusting." Smiling Knife showed a look of disgust, "Even such a small child isn’t spared."

"What do you understand? I’m just booking early!" Feng Yujian retorted, "These days, a girl is hardly single by the time she’s thirteen, and if she is, she’s either ugly or extraordinarily beautiful like our eldest sister-in-law. Since I don’t look that great, I’ve got to book early. In seven or eight years, she will be available. It’s called a sustainable development strategy, you understand nothing!"

As he spoke, Feng Yujian moved closer to the little girl, but when he was two meters away from Mei Ye, a powerful shockwave sent him flying and crashing heavily into the wall.

Mei Ye looked coldly at Zhao’er and then said to you, "Why, why is it like this?"

As she spoke, Mei Ye’s body underwent a huge transformation. Her whole body glowed with a black light, and within this light, she transformed from a little girl of about five into a beautiful young woman of seventeen or eighteen.

This was a beauty not any less enchanting than Zhao’er. Compared to Zhao’er’s elegance and purity, Mei Ye appeared more charming and seductive, with every part of her body possessing a deadly allure for men.

Mei Ye looked directly at you and said with a voice full of deadly temptation, "Why choose her? What is wrong with me that you find me less desirable?"

You felt a headache coming on but couldn’t offer any explanation, so you could only brashly say, "It’s all fate."

At this time, everyone heard Feng Yujian’s mournful cries. The guy sorrowfully took out a small notebook from his pocket, jotting something down while crying out, "This is the forty-ninth time."

Smiling Knife walked over to console him, "Don’t worry, when you fall in love for the fiftieth time, you can hang yourself."

"What is fate?" Mei Ye approached you, "I went through countless efforts to get close to you, all I want is your true heart, but you took advantage of my absence to be with this cheap woman!"

"Mei Ye!" you shouted coldly, "Say what you want about me, but you absolutely cannot insult Zhao’er!"

"Hmph, Zhao’er, how intimate it sounds," Mei Ye laughed coldly, "Now you have only Zhao’er in your arms, not caring even about the life and death of the beauties."

The mention of beauties made your face change greatly; you quickly grabbed Mei Ye’s hand and asked, "Quick, tell me, where is she now?"

"Are you threatening me?" Mei Ye said coldly, "She is now in my hands. If you can, go ahead and kill me!"

"I warn you, if you dare to harm a single hair on beauties, I’ll kill you no matter if you’re the Ghost King!"

"Hah, hahah, well said, spoken so beautifully!" Mei Ye retreated a few steps, "Ling Zixu, I, Mei Ye, now swear, in this lifetime, I will make sure you are separated from your wife and children, never finding peace even in death!"

A phantasmal space appeared behind Mei Ye, and she resolutely turned away. Leaving a statement, "From today on, all the ghost group under the Ghost King’s command will launch an assassination against you, just you wait!" she left.

The situation changed so quickly that you were momentarily unable to come to your senses, standing fixedly as you watched the spot where Mei Ye disappeared, your expression extraordinarily complicated.

"Yun."

Zhao’er stood quietly beside you, showing a worried expression for the first time.

With a woman’s unique intuition, Zhao’er knew that what Mei Ye had said was true. In other words, from now on, you had one more enemy force to contend with. More than that, she feared you might lose the self-confidence you already possessed because of those beauties.

"It’s nothing, it’s just that things will become troublesome from now on," you said seriously to Zhao’er, "Zhao’er, do you blame me? I haven’t mentioned things about the beauties."

Zhao’er gently shook her head, saying, "Yun, you have your reasons for not mentioning it. When the time is right, you’ll naturally speak of it."

"You don’t blame me for being unfaithful?"

Zhao’er laughed, "No one has the right to restrain anyone, especially a successful man. The more successful a man is, the more admirers and pursuers he will have. Instead of restraining him constantly, it’s better to let him be. If Yun truly cares for me, he won’t neglect me. And if there ever comes a day when I’m truly neglected, it would only mean that my attractiveness isn’t enough, and I couldn’t blame anyone else."

Feeling incredibly relieved, you pulled Zhao’er into your arms. Zhao’er spoke little, but every word she said was classic, each one touching your heart.

To have such a wife, any man would have no regrets.

"Master." Mei Ye was gone, but Ig remained. He now knelt before you holding a scroll.

"What’s going on?" you asked.

"This is a letter I found in the Necromancer King’s secret chamber."

"A letter?"

"It could also be said to be a will," Ig said with great composure, "It is from Emperor Ming to you."

"Me?" You took the will with curiosity, and as you opened it, a string of words instantly appeared in your eyes: "The ruler of Ming Ye, cross the Undead Plains, cleanse soul and body in the river of Naraku, find oneself in the dark crypt, choose your life between light and darkness, finally reaching the slumbering place of the Netherworld Emperor, awaken the eternal king."

"When was this discovered?" you asked.

"It was just discovered."

You turned to Zhao’er and asked, "Zhao’er, what do you think?"

"It’s up to you to decide." Zhao’er’s words were effectively nothing said.

After a brief contemplation, you said, "Personally, I’d really like to take a look. It’s just that while I am away, you all will need to maintain order in various places."

"Don’t worry, Boss, I’ll make sure nothing breaches our territory."

"Elder brother, you and sister-in-law go without worry. I’ll take good care of the sisters here for you. By the time you return, they’ll surely be expecting."

You and Zhao’er exchanged a smile. In fact, your thought was simple: from Mei Ye’s various actions in the past, she wants you to become the second Netherworld Emperor and overthrow the current King Ming to dominate the entire Netherworld.

Based on this inference, the Ming Ye in your hand should be crucial evidence for you to become the Netherworld Emperor. According to the Hell’s Emperor’s Will, you precisely qualify as "the ruler holding Ming Ye," meaning this will was written for you.

You said to Zhao’er, "Zhao’er, it will definitely be very dangerous there, you should stay here."

"No, I want to go with you."

Zhao’er’s expression was very determined. She didn’t give a reason, but you found the answer in her eyes.

You sighed and said, "Alright."

You and Zhao’er didn’t have anything to pack. Obtaining a Map of the Netherworld from Ig’s hand, you learned from the map that your location was the "Undead Edge," only a few thousand meters away from the Undead Plains, which is ruled by Xing Tian, one of the "Three kings of Netherworld."
