I'm Dreaming of a Journey to the West

Chapter 371: The arrival of Queen Hou Tu and the scolding of the Palace Yama!

When the Chakravartin caught sight of the Black and White Impermanence, his already restless heart erupted in a turbulent tidal wave. A terrifying light gleamed in their eyes, as if capable of incinerating everything in the world. The long-suppressed rage within him erupted like a volcano.

You know, if these two extremely stupid guys hadn't hooked up with the wrong person, how could he and the other nine Yama Kings have suffered such a great humiliation? They received such a beating for no reason!

Recalling Li Chen's fierce attack just now, the Wheel King couldn't help but feel a lingering fear. Although Li Chen hadn't harbored the slightest killing intent when he attacked, if those two giant axes had been aimed directly at his head, not only would he be in danger and doomed, but the other nine Yama brothers would also be doomed and die at Li Chen's hands!

At this moment, the Wheel King really wanted to fly up and beat up the Black and White Impermanence to vent his hatred! However, reality did not allow him to act so impulsively.

After all, Li Chen was still here. If he dared to attack right then and there, this powerful man would definitely not give up easily. By then, let alone teaching the Black and White Impermanence a lesson, he would probably have to suffer again and be beaten up again!

So, despite his deep resentment, the Chakravartin suppressed his anger and slowly and with difficulty stood up from the dusty ground.

The King lowered his head slightly and gently straightened his wrinkled and messy clothes with his hands, his movements appearing careful and methodical. Once his clothes were slightly straightened, he raised his head, his face solemn and filled with a bit of awe, and walked slowly towards Li Chen with steady but humble steps.

When he was only a few steps away from Li Chen, the King stopped, then bowed deeply, respectfully clasped his hands and bowed to Li Chen, performing a standard and well-mannered ceremony. His body was almost parallel to the ground, his head lowered to his chest, his attitude pious and humble.

After doing this, the Wheel King stood up, still bowing slightly, and spoke in a very earnest tone, "Saint Li Chen's bravery is truly rare in the world, unparalleled in the world! Compared to you, we are like the light of a firefly compared to the brilliance of the full moon. We are so ashamed of ourselves that we can only admit defeat!"

Li Chen, upon seeing the Wheel King's actions, quickly stepped forward and returned the greeting with a humble smile. Then, he swung his hands violently, and instantly, a powerful and majestic magical power surged from his body. This powerful power, like a spring breeze, gently brushed over the unconscious bodies of the other nine Yama Kings.

As the magic power was infused, the nine Yama Kings' tightly closed eyes began to tremble slightly, and soon opened slowly. At the same time, their injuries, some minor and some serious, healed at a speed visible to the naked eye, returning to their original state in the blink of an eye.

"Saint Li Chen, your name is truly well-known and well-deserved! Not only are you an extraordinary martial artist and invincible, but you are also kind-hearted and compassionate. We sincerely admire such a broad-minded, kind-hearted person from the bottom of our hearts!" The ten Yama Kings said in unison, their words full of admiration.

Recalling the thrilling blow just now, the King of Hell is still in shock, and an indescribable fear rises in his heart.

After all, facing the Saint-level strength of Li Chen, if he had not shown mercy, they would have been killed by now. Thinking of this, the ten Hades could not help but secretly rejoice, and at the same time, they were filled with gratitude for Li Chen's tolerance and magnanimity.

The Black and White Impermanence stared with wide eyes, their faces filled with astonishment, staring blankly at the Ten Kings of Hell bowing respectfully to Li Chen. It was only then that they realized, as if waking from a dream, that the situation had developed to an extremely serious level.

Looking out, the once solemn and majestic Yama Palace was now in ruins, with broken walls everywhere, as if it had experienced a devastating catastrophe. To have destroyed this palace, a symbol of the authority and order of the underworld, one could only imagine the terrifying power of the figure standing quietly before the Ten Yama Kings!

"Grandpa Yama! And this Immortal, please have mercy on me and spare my life! Please spare my life!"

Terrified, the Black and White Impermanence no longer cared about their usual awe-inspiring demeanor. They fell to their knees and kowtowed repeatedly to Li Chen and the Ten Kings of Hell, begging for mercy. Back then, they were arrogant and domineering in front of the ghosts, often using their power to bully the weak and abuse their power. Not only did they even ask for money and property from the poor ghosts from time to time for their own enjoyment.

However, at this moment, facing the Ten Kings of Hell and the unfathomable and extremely powerful mysterious god in front of them, they deeply realized how small and humble they were, like ants to an elephant, and had no power to resist at all.

Li Chen smiled faintly and said calmly, "Hurry up and get up! Your ten Hades and I were just exchanging some simple tricks, nothing serious. Get up, everyone. I just happened to come here today because I have something I need the ten Hades' help with!"

"Fellow Daoist Li Chen!"

At this moment, a voice like a huge bell suddenly rang out from behind Li Chen. The voice was simple and majestic, as if it contained endless power, making people tremble.

Li Chen was startled and quickly turned to look. Not far away, he saw Hou Tu Niangniang leading a group of women, including the Hibiscus Fairy, flying towards him. Their figures were graceful, their clothes fluttering, like a group of fairies descending to the mortal world, beautiful yet exuding a powerful aura.

In the blink of an eye, Fairy Hibiscus and the others flew to Li Chen's side as swiftly as the wind. Fairy Jade Rabbit even stepped forward impatiently, asking with concern, "Li Chen, are you okay? Are you hurt anywhere?"

Fairy Jade Rabbit was the most proficient in medicine among the women, and therefore was always particularly sensitive to the injuries of others. Seeing that Li Chen had just experienced a fierce battle, she naturally took the initiative to approach him and ask him about it.

Li Chen laughed heartily upon hearing this, and waved his hand, saying, "It's okay, it's okay. I'm fine! I just had a brief exchange with the Ten Kings of Hell. Just treat it as a joke!"

However, upon hearing this, the women cast their gazes around. They saw that the Yama Palace had become a shambles. The once magnificent and majestic building was now in ruins, with broken walls and rubble everywhere. The ground was also covered with deep and shallow gullies, clearly the result of a fierce battle.

Seeing this scene, the women looked at each other in bewilderment. Could this really be called a joke? If so, then this joke was a bit too much.

"Master? Do you have any misunderstanding about the three words 'just kidding'?" Li Zhaohuang widened his eyes and looked at the master in front of him with disbelief, his voice unconsciously rising a few notes.

You know, for him, making a big fuss in the underworld was simply a fantasy. Since she was a child, she had heard many legends and stories about the underworld from her father.

My father once dreamt of a sleepwalking trip to the underworld, a place so eerie and terrifying it would scare the living daylights out of you. No matter how distinguished or powerful a person was in life, once in the underworld, they would be tortured and left in a state of utter despair.

At this moment, Hou Tu Niangniang shouted sternly: "What the hell are you guys doing? Are the medicinal herbs that I asked you to prepare ready now?" Her majestic eyes swept over the Ten Kings of Hell in front of her, and her tone was full of blame.

"Reporting to the Queen Mother Hou Tu, Saint Li Chen just invited us to fight him, and we were forced to do so! We have already prepared those medicinal herbs, and are just waiting for you and Saint Li Chen to come and check them!"

The Ten Yama Kings all spoke respectfully. After all, Hou Tu Niangniang was their superior. She was the administrator of the entire underworld, one of the Four Imperial Gods of Heaven, and held an extremely high position. How could the Ten Yama Kings dare disobey her orders?
