My Girlfriend is the Nether King

Chapter 34: 034 Nether Fire Eruption



"Ugh!" After being punched by Chen Hao, Ren Deshan immediately spat out blood and his complexion turned deathly pale. He leaned against the wall, weakly protesting, "Chen Hao, you dare...!"

Before Ren Deshan could finish, Chen Hao immediately stepped forward, grabbed the front of Ren Deshan's collar, and demanded, "Where is Ye Yuqiao? And what about those dozen ghost children of our family?"

Ren Deshan closed his eyes slightly and stopped speaking as if he had fainted.

At that moment, Chen Hao punched Ren Deshan in the stomach again.

"Ugh!" The punch made Ren Deshan's eyes flash with clarity, and fresh blood sprayed from his mouth.

"I will ask you one last time, where is Ye Yuqiao? And those children of my family, where are they? Dare to feign ignorance again, and I promise I'll kill you!" Chen Hao roared furiously at Ren Deshan.

Ren Deshan looked at Chen Hao resentfully, blinked his eyes, and then hissed, "She is inside, and we have already sent those dozen ghost children of yours to the Netherworld."

"What!" Chen Hao felt as if he had been struck by lightning, his face grew somber. Those dozen ghost children had actually been sent to the Netherworld; they were all souls with unfinished lifespans, and being in the Netherworld they could only be locked up in Hell! They had all been raised with great difficulty by his grandfather, just waiting to be reincarnated on their eighteenth birthday. His grandfather was no longer around, and it was his duty to take care of these ghost children. Now that the children had been sent to the Netherworld, he felt he had grossly failed his grandfather!

In a fury, Chen Hao felt his power surge within him. After letting out a sky-shaking roar, he lifted Ren Deshan entirely and strode into the Yin Yang Master Association.

At this time, other onmyoji who had heard Ren Deshan's screams of agony had just rushed out from the meeting room into the lobby.

Chen Hao found Xie Da in the crowd, shouted loudly, and then threw Ren Deshan, who he had lifted above his head, at Xie Da.

"Ah!" The group of onmyoji, including Xie Da, were thrown into disarray as Ren Deshan was tossed their way. Some stepped back to dodge, while others stepped forward to catch Ren Deshan; Xie Da stood still, knitting his brows and locking eyes with Chen Hao.

"Who sent our children to the Netherworld?" Chen Hao charged at the onmyoji with rage.

The onmyoji looked at each other, eventually turning their gazes towards Xie Da, waiting for him to issue commands.

With a sigh, Xie Da said in a tone of helplessness, "Haozi, we heard you set fire to the Seven Fairies temple, which angered the Seven Fairies, and they.. Your grandfather thought you were already gone. Fearing that the ghost children might be left unfed and harm people on the streets, he had them sent to the Netherworld. However..."

"Old fox!" Suddenly, Chen Hao leaped forward, his speed akin to a swift gust of wind, leaving the onmyoji before him unable to track his movement with their eyes, let alone stop him.

No sooner had the words left his mouth, Chen Hao was already in front of Xie Da, his right fist stopping less than two centimeters from Xie Da's reddened nose.

"Chen Hao, how dare you!" shouted a man with a broad shoulder and a buzz cut standing beside Chen Hao. This man was Liu Yongping, the head of the Spirit Division of the Yin Yang Master Association, rumored to be able to summon the Grand Supreme Elder Lord to inhabit his body.

Seeing Chen Hao's incredible speed, Xie Da was astonished. His wide eyes full of concern, he said, "Haozi, how are you so fast? You haven't been practicing some sort of dark arts, have you?"

Xie Da's question made Chen Hao laugh. Ren Deshan, as the head of the Heavenly Division, was practicing straw man soul control, and Xie Da found it surprising that Chen Hao might be practicing other forbidden arts? Was it so that officials could commit arson but ordinary people couldn't even light a lamp?

Without answering Xie Da's question, Chen Hao stared at him coldly and said, "I can't bring myself to throw this punch, not because you once showed kindness to my family, but because I don't want to kill you and get in trouble with the law for it. However, listen well, I will remember this grudge, forever!"

Xie Da's face was creased with worry, looking almost tearful, regretful that centuries of camaraderie between the Chen and Xie Yin Yang families could be severed in his hands, and that they now had an irreconcilable feud. Moreover, having heard last night that the Seven Fairies were going to execute Chen Hao, he, as the vice president of the Yin Yang Master Association, could do nothing but allow these fierce ghosts to do as they pleased, which was a great shame for him.

After a sorrowful sigh, Xie Da said guiltily, "Haozi, I have arranged everything. The children in the Netherworld will not be locked in Hell, and someone will take care of them. When they turn eighteen, they will be sent to reincarnate."

"Don't think that doing this will make me forgive you!" Chen Hao said icily, his eyes reflecting a resolute chill. After a pause, he demanded, "Where is Ye Yuqiao?"

"She's in the meeting room!"

Chen Hao quickly glanced towards the meeting room. Just as he was about to head there, Xie Da suddenly sidestepped and blocked his path. Chen Hao glared at him, saying forcefully, "Old fox, get out of my way!"

"Haozi, the lady inside, you can't take her with you!" Xie Da said, looking at Chen Hao with a troubled expression in his dark eyes.

Chen Hao scoffed coldly and asked, "Why can't I take her? Don't forget, she's a person, and it's illegal for you to bring her here. If you don't step aside, I'll call the police right now!"

"Haozi, listen to me explain!" Xie Da grabbed Chen Hao's arm and spoke with a heavy heart, "That girl is no ordinary person, she only has a Yang Spirit and lacks a Yin Soul! She's very likely to be a demon!"

Hearing Xie Da's words, Chen Hao froze, staring at Xie Da in astonishment. Xie Da lowered his wrinkled old face and looked at Chen Hao with pleading eyes, as if begging Chen Hao to believe what he said.

After falling into deep thought for a long while, a light flashed in Chen Hao's eyes. He shook off Xie Da's hand and sneered, "Then when the police arrive, remember to tell them exactly what you just said."

Xie Da's expression darkened, his face filled with disappointment.

Chen Hao waved his hand, pushing Xie Da aside, then walked toward the conference room.

"Quick, stop him!" After being supported by two people, Xie Da immediately gave the order.

Then, four Onmyoji surrounded Chen Hao from all sides. These four Onmyoji were He Chuan, Zhao Ji, Zhou Xiaochuan, and Wang Sanbao, important members of the Yin Yang Master Association's Technique Division.

Immediately, four red lines were thrown out from the hands of these four Onmyoji of the Technique Division, crossing over each other back and forth, quickly entangling Chen Hao's hands and feet. These red lines were Soul-binding Ropes, thin yet so potent that once they bound a person, the person's Yin Soul would be trapped, rendering the body unable to move.

The reason Xie Da had said Ye Yuqiao lacked a Yin Soul was that last night, when he and the four Onmyoji rushed to Chen Hao's house to exorcise those dozen children, Ye Yuqiao suddenly appeared to obstruct them. When the four Onmyoji of the Technique Division tried to trap Ye Yuqiao, they hadn't expected that even when bound by the Soul-binding Rope, she could still move freely. That's when Xie Da realized she did not have a Yin Soul.

Therefore, Xie Da took action, joining forces with the four Onmyoji of the Technique Division to capture Ye Yuqiao, and brought her to the Yin Yang Master Association. Later on, Xie Da even drove a Yin Soul Nail into Ye Yuqiao to test it out; indeed, no Yin Soul was forced out of her body, and the nail pierced through her arm, causing a lot of blood to flow.

In order to thoroughly investigate Ye Yuqiao's identity, Xie Da called over Ren Deshan, the leader of the Heaven Division of the Yin Yang Master Association, and Liu Yongping, the leader of the Technique Division, that very night. After trying various methods all night long, they still couldn't make Ye Yuqiao confess her real identity.

"Let me go?" Chen Hao said expressionlessly, his eyes emanating a murderous intent while bound by the red lines.

Xie Da turned around, walked up to Chen Hao, and patted his shoulder with a worried frown, "Haozi, you've been filled with too much dark energy lately, irritable; I fear that the girl of unknown origin has confused your mind. Someone will come soon to take that girl away, and then I'll release you."

"You'd better kill me, or else I swear, none of you will live past three days. I, Chen Hao, always keep my word; if you don't believe it, just wait and see!" Chen Hao said through clenched teeth angrily.

After hearing that Ye Yuqiao was going to be taken away, Chen Hao suddenly felt his left eye twitching. He closed his eyes, only to see a purple light at his left eye growing and expanding as if it were absorbing the power of some unknown substance from the surrounding darkness.

When he opened his eyes, he felt a previously unknown powerful force coursing through his veins, igniting his blood.

Seeing Chen Hao's body trembling and his complexion gradually turning a bruise-like purple, Xie Da asked with concern and confusion, "Haozi, what's wrong with you?"

"I... must..."

At that moment, Chen Hao felt as if all his blood was boiling, a burning sensation so intense he found it unbearable. His vision was covered by a brilliant purple glow, and the optic nerve in his left eye throbbed painfully under the pressure of the purple light.

"I'll wipe you out!" Chen Hao roared with a fierce look on his face, and a burst of purple flames then spewed from his left eye. Subsequently, the purple flames, like lava from a volcanic eruption, spewed from Chen Hao's left eye towards the sky before rapidly falling, blanketing the entire hall.

This was the third skill of the Nether Eye Power—Nether Fire.

Ordinarily, with the Yin Qi Spiritual Power that Chen Hao had cultivated, he would have needed at least three more months to wield Nether Fire. But due to his rage, he achieved it two months early!

To ordinary people, the Nether Fire would be invisible. But as all present were Yin Yang Masters, they were startled to see the purple flames jetting from Chen Hao's left eye.

What was odd was that although the flames clearly fell on them, they felt no sensation whatsoever.

"President Xie, what's going on?" Liu Yongping asked. Although he had been a Yin Yang Master for decades, he had never witnessed such a bizarre event, nor had he seen such a vivid and dazzling purple flame.

Xie Da was equally perplexed and turned to look at Chen Hao.

Chen Hao, with his head lowered and a cold laugh, then tiredly said, "You bound my Yin Soul with the Soul-binding Rope, so I did unto you what you did unto me and set your Yin Souls on fire!"

"No good!" Xie Da cried out in panic, "Run! If we don't run now, our Yin Souls will be burnt away by this purple fire!"
