Chapter 541: Chapter 541 Grand Finale (5)_1
"Hmm," Dugu Qianye responded with a sense of premonition that the Dark Spiritual Bead wouldn’t come back willingly, "If Yong Xing knows we’re here, he will definitely come down, and that’s when the final battle will commence..."
"At that time, the Prince who is leading the rebellion will also make his move," Zi Xiao said, "We need to discuss with Mang Qianjun what to do about them."
"Alright," nodded Dugu Qianye. Following that, Zi Xiao established contact with Mang Qianjun, and a group of people began to discuss strategies.
In the eleventh layer of Endless Hell, within a palace that could rival Mang Qianjun’s Royal Palace, Yong Xing and the Eleventh Prince were plotting. They had made an agreement beforehand—Yong Xing would help the Eleventh Prince ascend to the throne of the ruler of Endless Hell, and in return, the Eleventh Prince would bow and pledge allegiance to Yong Xing, bringing Endless Hell under his dominion.
Although the Eleventh Prince was still averse to being ruled, even under Yong Xing, he was the most powerful in Endless Hell. Yong Xing seldom spent time there, as his true desire was just to unify the world, so the Eleventh Prince was basically a local tyrant! Additionally, with the formidable strength of Yong Xing, it seemed like a simple task to help him topple Mang Qianjun. Thus, their pact was formed.
"You say the Dark Spiritual Bead is in the eighteenth layer of Hell?" Yong Xing asked.
The Eleventh Prince nodded affirmatively, "I can assure you the Dark Spiritual Bead is definitely in the eighteenth layer of Hell. It is with its power that Qiao Huang, the Ghost King, became the mightiest person there. He even showcased it during his birthday celebration a hundred years ago to those who came to congratulate him."
Yong Xing twisted the ring on the thumb of his left hand as he spoke, "They’ve been here for some time now; they must have gone to the eighteenth layer of Hell already. The guards that were killed a couple of days ago were probably her doing. We cannot let them get the Dark Spiritual Bead. Summon my men, send someone to the eighteenth layer to stop them!"
He should have guessed that the sudden disappearance of the soldiers guarding the eleventh and twelfth layers, leaving no trace behind, was the work of Dugu Qianye!
"Yes." Qiong Qi, accompanied by Taotie, approached Yong Xing and asked, "Master, should we go ourselves, or should we ask the Eleventh Prince to dispatch troops as well?"
Yong Xing didn’t speak, but his intention was clear. The Eleventh Prince was relying on Yong Xing’s help to overthrow Mang Qianjun, so these minor matters certainly required his contribution. The Eleventh Prince quickly declared his position, "Heavenly Venerable Sir, your troops are mighty, but the landscape of Endless Hell is peculiar. My men may not be very powerful, but they are more familiar with this place, so let them lead the way for Lord Qiong Qi and his team."
"Fine," Yong Xing agreed with a nod. Although he looked down on these minions of Hell, what he wanted was the Eleventh Prince’s attitude of submission—and he was very satisfied with his performance.
As the Eleventh Prince was about to summon his people, a guard rushed in and reported, "Prince, there’s trouble in the eighteenth layer of Hell!"
Alarmed, the Eleventh Prince rose from his seat and asked urgently, "What has happened?"
Because Yong Xing had expressed his desire for the Dark Spiritual Bead, the Eleventh Prince had reported back to him as soon as he had gathered intelligence. The men he’d sent hadn’t returned, as they kept watch over Qiao Huang’s whereabouts. Now, hearing the dispatched guard report trouble, he feared the Bead had been taken. If Yong Xing were to blame him, he might not only lose his support but also find himself implicated, turning Yong Xing’s wrath upon himself.
Both Yong Xing and Qiong Qi focused their attention on the guard, bracing for unacceptable news...
Not used to such attention, the guard trembled slightly and reported, "Qiao Huang was severely beaten by a man and a woman accompanied by numerous Spiritual Beasts; they rescued his favorite concubine and a man."
Upon hearing about a man and a woman, Yong Xing surmised it must be Zi Xiao and Dugu Qianye. He channeled Spiritual Power into the air, creating a silhouette, and looked at the guard to confirm, "Is the man this person?"
The guard glanced up and confirmed, "That’s him."
Yong Xing scattered the figure, and Qiong Qi asked, "Retell the situation at that time in detail, without missing any detail!"
"Yes."
The guard recounted what had happened, and Qiong Qi asked, "Did you see them take the Dark Spiritual Bead from Qiao Huang’s body?"
The guard tried hard to recall and said with certainty, "No."
After listening to the guard, Qiong Qi glanced at Yong Xing and said, "Master, Taotie and I should go now; perhaps we can still stop them..."
Yong Xing waved his hand to interrupt him and said, "It’s no use for you to go. Zi Xiao is there, and your going would be a pointless sacrifice."
"Then what should we do? We can’t let them get the Dark Spiritual Bead, otherwise..." Qiong Qi said. He and Yong Xing were most aware of the events of that year. If Dugu Qianye were to regain his strength, they would definitely have no way out!
Yong Xing also understood this and said, "I will go myself. Leave two Peacekeeping Squad members to help Prince Eleven against Mang Qianjun, take the others, and follow me to the eighteenth level!"
Though the incident was sudden, there was no way back for him now!
"Good, I will call all the generals right now to explain the situation," Qiong Qi said.
Yong Xing waved his hand, and Qiong Qi turned and left. Prince Eleven looked at Yong Xing and asked, "Heavenly Venerable, your subordinate is willing to accompany you, ready to serve with the diligence of a dog and horse."
"No need. You have your own tasks to fulfill," Yong Xing said, "I will take the troops to the eighteenth level. Once Mang Qianjun leaves to provide relief, you seize the opportunity to occupy his palace."
"Your subordinate understands. I will go prepare right now," Prince Eleven replied and then withdrew. Qiong Qi came in with a group of men, quickly discussed with Yong Xing, and left two behind. The rest went out with him.
Yong Xing stepped outside; Qiong Qi had already gathered the soldiers designated to go. Looking at the neatly arranged army, Yong Xing nodded in satisfaction. If only the other Spiritual Beasts could be as capable as Qiong Qi!
"Depart!" he shouted to the people below and took the lead flying towards the twelfth level.
Qiong Qi followed closely behind, then came Taotie and the other three great Ferocious Beasts, along with a host of generals and a million-strong army. Their formidable presence caused all the encountered ghostly creatures to tremble in fear.
In the first level of Endless Hell, Mang Qianjun looked at the great army in front of him and said, "An army nurtured for a thousand days is used for a moment. I’ve never let you go into battle, so the true extent of your combat strength is unknown. Ahem, I hope you do not disappoint me. Everything will proceed according to the previous plan. Now, follow me to the eighteenth level!"
"Yes, Your Majesty!" the crowd answered, but their morale was visibly lacking.
Mang Qianjun looked at them resignedly, lamenting that he had indeed indulged them too much, and said, "Whoever fails to perform well, stay behind on the eighteenth level after the battle! Then, with no beautiful women to see, no good meat to eat, and no fine wine to drink, you better not regret it."
