Chapter 342 The hidden secret
The underworld, the realm of life and death...

In a stormy mountain forest, a simple wooden hut stands there, making one wonder if it will be blown away in the next second.

In a simple wooden hut, three people were sitting around an old-fashioned fireplace.

Among the three people, the old man sitting in the first seat is obviously the owner of this hut.

The old man was sitting cross-legged. He was at least 180 cm tall and very tall. He was only wearing a rough kimono, which made one clearly see his strong body that did not match his age at all. His muscles were extremely conspicuous, making most strong men pale in comparison. He had a strong physique.

However, this strong old man suddenly vomited blood for no apparent reason, causing the two people sitting by the fire to change color.

"My husband."

A gentle female voice sounded first, expressing condolences to the old man.

"Are you okay?"

The person who spoke was a woman wearing a brightly colored twelve-piece kimono, which was only worn by noble princesses during the Heian period. She had a face that was far beyond that of an ordinary mortal, and was so beautiful that she didn't seem like a human being at all.

The woman's pupils were clear glass blue, her hair was flaxen, her skin was smooth ivory, and she exuded a noble and gentle aura. She really was like a princess, elegant and beautiful.

Compared to her, the other person present was extremely sarcastic and even spoke sarcastically.

"Is the old man really old? Or does he have some chronic illness? Why did he suddenly vomit blood?"

This was a man wearing a black monk's robe, with dry skin and no real flesh at all. It was as if all the flesh and blood had been peeled off, like a mummy.

His voice was hoarse, but his temperament was not gloomy. Instead, he had a feeling of enlightenment, like an immortal who had escaped from the world, or a Buddha. It was just that the way he spoke was too harsh, giving people a feeling of being unkind.

Faced with these two companions whose images and personalities were completely inversely proportional, one beautiful, the other ugly, one gentle, the other mean, the old man seemed to be accustomed to it and wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth as if nothing had happened.

"I underestimated that guy." Mr. Yu said, whether he was explaining or just mentioning it casually, "I am still in the underworld. I just cast my power into the real world and brought down a storm in the real world. But he actually cut off a part of his godhood through the power. That guy is really capable."

Upon hearing this, the Princess of Liulitong and the Mummy's magician immediately understood what was going on.

"It was actually able to cut off a part of your godhead in the underworld?" The wizard asked in surprise, "Does the newly born young demon king have such power?"

Obviously, the mage was aware of what Mr. Yu was doing.

"I didn't expect that either." Mr. Yu said as if it had nothing to do with him. "I originally wanted to test his qualifications, but I didn't expect to be outwitted. If he hadn't become a godslayer in our territory, I would have thought that he was a warrior who had experienced many battles."

The wizard didn't have time to respond to these words because Princess Liulitong spoke first.

"It is not appropriate to test Lord Luosha's qualifications in this way. Your insistence on doing so has resulted in this. Are you satisfied now?"

Princess Liulitong seemed to be different from Mr. Yu and the magician. Although she knew what had happened, she did not quite agree with their actions.

Therefore, the princess showed a slightly unhappy look on her beautiful face, but was ignored by the two men.

"He was able to cut off part of my godhood in the realm of life and immortality across the realm of life. Even though he was able to do this with the God-killing Sword, it shows that he is indeed extraordinary."

Mr. Yu seemed to be fine. He picked up the wine glass, drank again, and said these words.

"Unfortunately, that guy is too mysterious. I don't know where he got the Ring of Usurpation from, and with it, he got many powerful divine tools. He is too threatening. Otherwise, I really want to meet him and talk to him in person."

Mr. Yu's words once again brought him sarcasm from the wizard.

"Judging from the current situation, this new demon king obviously has a bad temper. Mr. Yu also deliberately sent his granddaughter to him to test him. If he really saw this in person, he would probably be stabbed to death with that terrible gun, right?"

Although the mage's words were sarcastic, they were also giving advice in disguise.

He is a monk who has truly attained enlightenment, and he has a broad perspective on things. Therefore, he had already anticipated that the meeting between Mr. Yu and the new demon king would definitely not be a pleasant one.

Mr. Yu has always been a hot-tempered person. Even though he is "old" now and no longer causes trouble like before, he is definitely not the kind of person who can put aside his pride and compromise easily with others.

And the new demon king's temper seemed to be even more violent than Mr. Yu's. He actually injured the instigator during just a test. If they really met each other, it would be a huge fight.

Princess Liulitong thought the same and gave advice.

"Now that we understand Lord Luosha's attitude, we should not over-stimulate him." The Princess with Glass Eyes said, "You two, please do not proceed with the follow-up actions. Otherwise, if we have a conflict with Lord Luosha again, we will end up losing more than we gain."

Regarding Princess Liulitong's remarks, Mr. Yu remained noncommittal, and the magician turned his firepower toward her.

"Isn't it no wonder that the princess isn't worried?" The wizard deliberately said provocatively, "After all, he became a godslayer in this country, and he is too close to the 'barbarian gods'." "Moreover, he is a demon king who is very keen on finding gods and is very loyal to his own fighting spirit. He is a complete godslayer."

"Aren't you afraid that he will know the secret we've hidden and awaken that thing?"

"Or... is this the situation you want to see, Princess?"

Despite being provoked by the wizard, the princess with glass eyes remained calm.

“Can you please stop joking around like that?” The princess with glass pupils looked at the mage with extreme displeasure in her eyes, and said, “We all don’t want that person to wake up. Isn’t this a consensus that has already existed?”

“How terrifying, how terrifying.” The mage raised his hands in surrender when the princess with glass eyes glared at him. He said in a pretentious manner, “Don’t look at me like that. I’m just making a reasonable guess.”

"Okay." Mr. Yu put down his wine glass and said in a bad mood, "I am the one who was hurt, not you. Stop talking nonsense in front of me."

"Right now, we still don't know what the attitude of the new kid is, so we should be on guard."

"The wizard is right. Judging from his behavior so far, if he knew the secret of this island country, it might really lead to the awakening of the foreign god."

"This secret must be kept and must not be exposed."

The wizard and the princess with glass eyes were silent for a moment.

This is equivalent to tacitly approving Mr. Yu's way of handling the matter and acknowledging his statement.

"The question is what to do, right?" The wizard said in a hoarse voice, "This new demon king is obviously not an easy person to deal with. Unless Mr. Yu comes to the world in person, who can stop him from doing anything he wants to do there?"

"I think you two don't need to make a fuss." The princess with glass eyes said: "I think although Lord Luosha is a bit aggressive, he is not an unreasonable person. Maybe we can reach a consensus with him in a gentle way."

"Please spare me, Princess." Mr. Yu shook his head and said decisively: "I don't want to really fight that boy."

"That kid already has one... no, two dangerous guns, and now he has obtained a scary sword from a foreign military god. He is almost becoming the natural enemy of the gods."

"I'm really worried that the guy will pull out a gun and stab me to death if we have a disagreement."

"Although I am old, I don't want to return to mythology yet."

There are not many people who can make him say such words, at least the other godslayers can't do it.

But it was precisely because he witnessed with his own eyes what Aize had obtained that Mr. Yu gave in.

An Eternal Spear that is sure to win is already dangerous enough, and now there is a Golden Sword that can cut through the divine nature. Faced with this combination of ace killer moves, which god would dare to rush over to show off his presence?
I wouldn’t dare to do that no matter how bad my temper is!
Not to mention Mr. Yu, even the mage, who always spoke sarcastically and seemed to show his rebellious side to everyone he met, said this.

"If you really want to talk, Princess, you can go and try it yourself. We'll just forget it."

The wizard, knowing full well how unpopular the two of them were, decisively threw away all responsibility.

“Okay.” Seeing this, the Princess of Liuli Eyes nodded, although she felt a little helpless, and said, “If that time really comes, I will personally invite Lord Luosha to come to the netherworld to discuss this matter.”

Mr. Yu and the magician nodded in agreement.

…………

At the same time, the Seven Heroes Shrine.

It was already night time when this happened, and the bright moonlight fell from the sky, landing on the grounds of the Nanashio Shrine, which had become somewhat devastated by the sudden storm.

The ground within the Shichio Shrine was covered with potholes and signs of damage. Because it was night, no one was working on repairs, and they could only wait until daybreak.

In the shrine office located behind the shrine, lights shine through the windows, illuminating the night road.

In the room that originally belonged to Yuri Manrigai and now belongs to Aize, Kiyoakiin Ena was lying in bed, healing her injuries under the care of Yuri Manrigai.

"Really, you guys are so messy."

Yuri Manrigani kept complaining while treating Ena Kiyoakiin's wound.

"Can't we talk it out calmly? Do we have to fight?"

Yuri Mariya's tone was filled with dissatisfaction.
