Little Sorcerer, Divine Doctor
Chapter 1157 - 310: God’s Promise
Although Yun Sheng has only dealt with the Netherworld Ghost King a few times, she had heard from Ying Yue and others earlier that the Netherworld Ghost King is notoriously known for keeping his word.
The three conditions of the Netherworld Ghost King, given his status in the Netherworld, once agreed upon, he wouldn’t go back on them.
Moreover, Yun Sheng already had a plan in her heart; once she rescued the Empress Li, she would immediately drag Ye Hu to do three bows and five kowtows to her mother-in-law, leading to a tearful reunion.
By then, let’s see what this "prospective father-in-law" Netherworld Ghost King can do about her.
The Netherworld Ghost King was unaware that Li Qingcheng hadn’t been rescued yet and the cunning "little girl" before him had already started to scheme against him.
The Netherworld Ghost King thought to himself, three conditions are not too many; if he gritted his teeth and closed his eyes, agreeing to them would be over quickly.
Looking at the girl, although she seemed a bit arrogant, her style of doing things was somewhat similar to his own.
Humph, if she truly could save Li Qingcheng, he’d even consider pulling this girl over to inherit his legacy.
"Little girl, for this time, I’ll let it slide, but don’t push your luck and propose a few more conditions afterward; otherwise, even if you are Qingcheng’s daughter-in-law, I won’t let you off," the Netherworld Ghost King huffed.
"No need to worry, Ghost King, using certain tricks once is enough," Yun Sheng grinned; she had guessed that three conditions were the limit for the Netherworld Ghost King.
As for which three conditions, Yun Sheng had not yet decided; she planned to rescue the soul of the Empress Li first before telling the Netherworld Ghost King her conditions.
A crisis, in the end, was turned into nothingness thanks to Yun Sheng’s quick wit.
Only then did the Netherworld Ghost King tell Yun Sheng that the residual soul of the Empress Li was located in the transmission array on the left.
A palace was even opened up in the small Ghost King Cave?
Upon hearing this, Yun Sheng couldn’t help but click her tongue; the Netherworld Ghost King had quite the grand plans.
"Regarding the Demon Suppression Array, this world’s God will find you later to settle accounts; after today, Ghost Water Creek cannot remain," the Lord Netherworld’s face was covered in dark clouds, thinking about how the old rascal Netherworld Ghost King managed so many tricks right under his nose.
He then looked at Bo Bo the sheep, who had clung to Yun Sheng’s embrace since meeting her and refused to come out, his face like thunder, ready to erupt at any moment.
With a stern face, he stretched out his long arms to grab one of Bo Bo’s meat wings, intending to haul it back.
"Stupid Mingri, what are you doing!" Bo Bo the sheep cried out in pain.
"Follow me," he finally found Bo Bo; this time, he would not let it escape him again.
Bo Bo the sheep, a Human World God waiting for an assignment, was so weak that it was extremely dangerous to roam outside.
"Bo Bo no—not — dear Master, this carnivore wants to catch Bo Bo and stew it; Master, save me, let the big perv hit him," Bo Bo was indeed a typical opportunistic individual.
It begged Mingri to save Yun Sheng pitifully, but seeing its master unharmed and with the protection of the three conditions from the Netherworld Ghost King, its courage ballooned.
It wriggled desperately into Yun Sheng’s arms, its meat wings flapping.
Both the Netherworld Ghost King and Yun Sheng were speechless upon hearing this.
Though Mingri’s face darkened, he dared not exert too much force for fear of hurting Bo Bo.
"Don’t forget, you used the Netherworld Jade; by agreement, you must..." Mingri fixed his gaze on Bo Bo, his eyes like a sharp knife set to slice it into pieces!
"Bo Bo sneers, you didn’t save dear Master. Our master is wise, brave, intelligent, and invincible, clearly saving herself. Shameless, decorating yourself with glory. Bo Bo owes you nothing; Bo Bo wants to follow dear Master," Bo Bo said, not caring a bit; Mingri did nothing but shout some, no credit goes to him.
Yun Sheng, aware of her demon beast’s temperament, coughed a few times.
"Lord Netherworld, let me speak a fair word. Bo Bo’s constitution is not fit for life in the Netherworld. Though my strength can’t compare to Lord Netherworld and Ghost King, I am willing to swear by my Magic Soul that as long as Bo Bo stays by my side, I, Yun Sheng, will protect it with all my might." As Yun Sheng spoke, her voice was resolute, and her black eyes were solemn.
At the same time, a dazzling Magic Soul appeared above Yun Sheng’s head.
For a mage, swearing by the Magic Soul is the most stringent of vows; if not upheld, the Magic Soul shatters and dies.
Mingri’s icy face showed slight change. He fixed his gaze upon Bo Bo, which nestled in Yun Sheng’s embrace, its eyes moist, small body trembling, nearly popping heart-shaped eyes.
Mingri had known Bo Bo for years, and apart from their first encounter, which Bo Bo had long forgotten, he had never seen Bo Bo so happy.
It truly loved its master.
So be it, Bo Bo is a Human World God waiting for assignment, and the Human World will soon face an unprecedented calamity, which Bo Bo must confront.
Though remaining in the Netherworld provides safety, it restricts unleashing true potential.
"Weak Egg, the path you choose is yours; you may follow her. Yet, if you wish to return one day, I’ll always be waiting in the Netherworld Palace," Mingri finished, his figure vanishing.
Mingri’s words were a blatant confession; Yun Sheng and the Netherworld Ghost King both heard it clearly.
Except Bo Bo seemed clueless, it pouted.
"Bo Bo will never seek you out, none at all," Bo Bo remarked, deftly hopping onto Yun Sheng’s shoulder.
Yun Sheng couldn’t help but smile, but the Netherworld Ghost King was quite anxious, urging Yun Sheng to quickly accompany him to find Empress Li.
Outside the Transmission Array, Shen Jizi and Gold Coin observed silently.
Originally, Shen Jizi thought that after the surge, the Demon Suppression Array completed, resulting in two arrays within the Netherworld clashing soon.
The power of the Demon Suppression Array would scatter, causing countless suffering souls and Yin Sha to flood into the Human World.
The Wuji Continent, being one of the closest continents to the Netherworld, would be the first to bear an unprecedented crisis.
By then, Eight Desolates Continent might take advantage, leading the Wuji Continent to fall.
However, before Shen Jizi’s dream was complete, a magical wave emanated from the transmission array ahead.
Soon, two people emerged from the transmission array.
One was Yun Sheng, and the other was the Netherworld Ghost King, appearing nowhere near a life-and-death struggle.
