"Ha ha ha, little girl, we're back!" From a distance, I heard Fu Lao's loud voice.
"That's great! I'm glad you returned on time. Was everything smooth?" I smiled as I welcomed them.
"Oh, it went really well. You should thank the little girl."
"There's no need for thanks. Did you find Grandpa Langda?"
"Yes, just as you said, we started asking around for the Langda Nether Sovereign as soon as we arrived in the Underworld. Although it took some time, it saved us from having to hunt for the Beast Inner Pill in the Beast Forest ourselves."
"Well, that Inner Pill is indeed not a problem for Grandpa Langda." I nodded. Given Grandpa Langda's status, a Sixth-Level Ice Attribute Beast Inner Pill, while rare, could certainly be found.
"If we hadn't gone to the Underworld, we wouldn't have known how prosperous it is! I've been in Hell for so long and have never seen such a beautiful place."
...Beautiful? I think the Underworld is much worse than the Human Realm.
"From what Fu Lao says, is your Northern Palace not good?" That place is the palace of the Northern King.
"Sigh, you don't know. Our Northern Palace is not even half as good as Grandpa Langda's home."
"What?!"
"Even our great Northern King is not wealthy."
I found it hard to understand and looked at the Red Demon beside me.
He nodded and said with a smirk, "Indeed, they are quite poor over there."
"But we are the same, which is why we constantly wage war to consume each other's territory."
"How can that be?"
"What else could it be? That place is hell. Don't you know what hell is?"
Hell... how could I not know? It is a place of punishment, where actions have consequences, and everything arises from karma.
I had always heard that hell is where all beings face judgment; there are humans, livestock, and Evil Spirits. Especially the Evil Spirits, who suffer the harshest punishments.
However, this hell is quite different from what I knew. There are various creatures here, chaos of war, villages, and even rules of life similar to those in the human realm.
But now is not the time to think about these things...
"Uncle Wu, I have something to tell everyone." I looked at Uncle Wu.
"Perhaps we won't be able to go back."
"What?! Little girl, what are you talking about?" Old Fu said.
"Sigh, just listen to me first."
I pulled little Ananda close and gently stroked his head. I'm sorry, sister brought you into this predicament.
...
I relayed Hess's words to them verbatim but did not mention the last part where Hess suggested that we abandon two people.
"Is there really no way out?" Uncle Wu asked.
I shook my head, unable to say anything.
"Then we have to go; Wang is still waiting for the medicine," Uncle Wu said.
"Yes, we must leave," Old Fu agreed.
"I shouldn't have come here with you; it's all just death!" Red Demon exclaimed in frustration.
"Let's go," Uncle Wu nodded, signaling me to lead the way.
"Alright, since we all came together, we must return together!" I replied.
...
The journey was silent. Even though everyone held a mindset of certain death, we unanimously agreed that at least one person must leave and bring the medicine back. Whether it was for the Southern King's people or the Northern King's people, we had to deliver the medicine to both sides.
I couldn't remember how many times I had gripped this door handle tightly; each time was a painful memory. Now, whose life would be sacrificed because of me?
"You dare to come back?"
At the moment the door opened, a familiar voice dripped with disdain and mockery.
"Sky-Opening, even if we have no chance of winning, a few of us working together can definitely injure you. Think about it: will you let us go, or will you fight us to the death?" I asked Sky-Opening.
"A delicious meal delivered right to my door? Wouldn't it be a waste not to eat it?"
"Do you mean you don't plan to let us go?"
"Heh heh, little one, do you know that even if there were dozens or hundreds of you, you wouldn't be able to harm me at all?"
I was taken aback. How could that be possible?!
"Sky-Opening sir, please spare this little girl; she alone is enough. Hell needs our king, and we can all offer ourselves to you."
"Oh? You are willing to let me consume you?"
"That's right, we are willing."
"Hahaha, I've eaten so many people, and none of them have willingly come into my mouth. Ah, perhaps the taste would be different; it might be quite delicious."
Sky-Opening emerged from the pool, gradually forming a solid figure and began to approach us.
"No! You can't eat any of them!" I stood in front of 'Sky-Opening'.
"This isn't up to you anymore!" Sky-Opening shouted angrily.
"No! I will kill you!"
"Then go ahead! Get out of my way! I've had enough of Undead, and it's rare for me to taste something fresh. Don't block me!"
