Chapter 2579: The Sovereign of the Netherworld Speaks
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
“Get lost! I ain’t lookin’!” the Demon Emperor snapped in anger.
Ever since he crossed paths with this tyrant, nothing good had come his way. After being slashed in the Black Dragon World, it’d take a good ten years or more to fully recover.
Song Shuhang was a real pain in the neck!
So, no matter what Song Shuhang had in mind, he was flat-out refusing.
With that in mind, the Demon Emperor’s mental strength began to retreat, ready to leave the Netherworld—can’t stir up trouble if you’re not around to be stirred up, right? “You want me to see somethin’, but I ain’t lookin’, and I’m outta here!”
As one of the top Immortals, if the Demon Emperor wanted to leave, nobody in this world could stop him.
This Demon Emperor, who had been around since ancient times, was among the oldest of the Immortals, and had nearly seized the position of ruler of the Black Dragon World. At the height of his power, he was undoubtedly one of the top few in all the realms.
“Senior, please stay! Just take a look, don’t miss out! You don’t have to pay to look. You have nothing to lose by taking a peek!” Song Shuhang hurriedly called out to detain the Demon Emperor.
If he let the Senior’s mental strength retreat, then he’d have to chase after the Demon Emperor in his inbox again if he wanted to fulfill the task Madam Long Luo gave him after her liver went kaput. It would be a real hassle.
So, the Demon Emperor’s mental strength couldn’t leave!
As soon as Song Shuhang finished speaking, the retreating mental strength of the Demon Emperor was suddenly confined.
It wasn’t some spell or mental suppression effect; it was more like a kind of ‘authority.’ Acting on him, it imprisoned his mental strength on the demon god pillar like it was a law. Demon Emperor was confused.
What’s going on?
Did Song Shuhang already mess with the demon god pillar?
No, the demon god pillar was fine.
The problem was with Song Shuhangs state! That word of his just now had a ‘speak and the world obeys’ effect! The entire Netherworld was following the ‘verbal’ commands of Sage Tyrannical Song.
This feeling… It was just like being a ‘ruler.’
The Demon Emperor wasn’t the only one who had nearly taken over the Dragon Channel Ruler of the Black Dragon World. He was very familiar with the effect of ‘speak and the world obeys.’
“Has he already taken over the ruler position? The Heavenly Dao collapsed, the new Heavenly Dao didn’t form, and the Nine Abysses had no ruler… Maybe it really is an opportunity?” This thought flashed through the Demon Emperor’s mind.
But soon, he dismissed this absurd idea.
If the position of ruler could be taken so easily, it wouldn’t be called the ruler of the Netherworld!
On the other side.
Behind Song Shuhang, Black-skinned Soft Feather emerged, holding a modified camera and starting to record the scene in front of her.
Song Shuhang faced the camera and showed off his acting chops. “Let’s get back on track. The pillar in front of us is Senior’s demon god pillar. Today, Senior has descended upon the pillar, which is truly our good fortune.”
After reciting the opening lines, he turned back to the demon god pillar and said, “Come on, Senior, I’ll show you a treasure!”
He forgot to turn on the camera earlier, so he had to make up for that line!
The Demon Emperor was speechless.
I’m not looking!
“What exactly are you trying to do?” The Demon Emperor’s retreating mental strength was suddenly imprisoned on the demon god pillar.
And he couldn’t even ‘turn off mental exploration—it was like being tied to a chair with his eyelids forced open, unable to close them, forced to watch.
“l really just wanna show you a treasure, it won’t hurt you.” Song Shuhang promised, rubbing the secret technique of Overlord God Pillar No. 1.
Demon Emperor was speechless.
Think I’m gonna believe your hogwash?
Since he’d just mastered this pillar technique, Song Shuhang was still a bit unfamiliar with using it, even making two mistakes in a row.
After two tries, he finally managed to activate Overlord God Pillar No. 1. “Sorry, Senior, I’m still getting the hang of this spell, made ya wait. Come on
out, Overlord God Pillar!” Song Shuhang waved his hand.
The ‘No. 1’ suffix was just a name he could call in his head; calling it out would lower his status.
Demon Emperor was speechless.
‘Overlord God Pillar’? This damn name just changed one word of his Demon God Pillar! Was he riding on the popularity of his ‘Demon God Pillar’ cultivation technique? Or maybe…
The Demon Emperor had an uneasy feeling.
Soon, his feeling came true,
The bald, black-clad Tyrant Song waved his hand. A pitch-black divine pillar materialized out of thin air and slammed into the crystal sand ground.
Because it was just a ‘basic pillar,’ there were no decorations on it.
‘Demon God Pillar’? The Demon Emperor’s mental strength trembled violently.
There was no mistaking it. This spellcasting process, the structure of the pillar, and this familiar scent were his demon god pillar cultivation techniques.
‘There was a slight difference in appearance… But it’s completely my demon god pillar cultivation technique!
‘Is it an improved version of my demon god pillar?’
“Heh, Senior, take a look at this.” Song Shuhang began reciting the lines he had prepared earlier and ruthless stabbed Senior More Than’s heart.
“How’d you do it? I’m about to cuss you out.” The Demon Emperor’s voice became sluggish—it was fine if he changed his demon god pillar secret technique, but now he wanted to snatch his classic lines too?
“No problem, the dirtier, the better.” Song Shuhang nodded seriously.
Demon Emperor gave up speaking.
This way, it’d be tough to report back to Madam Long Luo.
As expected, he’d better refine the demon god pillar into Overlord God Pillar No. 2. While the Demon Emperor’s mental strength was still on the demon god pillar and hadn’t left, he’d refine it into the Overlord God Pillar in one go!
The pillar’s name would be Longevity Pillar, Overlord Pillar!
As soon as this thought popped into his head, it was amplified and intensified by the power of the ruler.
Even though he’d said earlier he wouldn’t harm Senior More Than, could he trust the words of the ruler? Even if he was just a temporary ruler, it was still the same..
