Chapter 1757: Chapter 1757
Although Sablint’s personality changed a lot when he grew up, in the eyes of the Queen of Underworld, he was still her brother, just a bit mischievous and naughty.
"So what?" You shrug, smiling very coldly, "I have already said, anyone."
"What if it’s me?" The Queen of Underworld’s expression gradually changed, her gaze becoming sharper than before.
You first slowly closed your eyes, then abruptly opened them, speaking in a cold tone, "I will give you a whole corpse."
"To you, what kind of existence am I? Tell me, King Ming!" For the first time, since the Queen of Underworld understood the world until now, anger surges. She never thought that in your eyes, she was worth less than a lowly servant.
This perhaps is the biggest disagreement between you and the Queen of Underworld.
The Queen of Underworld has been influenced by Western aristocratic culture since childhood. In her view, everyone working around her is a lowly servant; they are merely living tools unable to arouse any emotion. But it’s different for you; your life was only possible due to the cooperative efforts of these brothers who are your family. Although you are now the high and mighty King Ming, you have not forgotten the past bonds; in your eyes, there are only relatives and brothers, everything else can be sacrificed freely.
"You are the Queen of Underworld, the ruler of the Netherworld, the woman of King Ming, but anyone can be this King Ming. Hey, hey, don’t think I don’t know about the disgraceful things you’ve done under my nose over the years."
"That was for the development of the Netherworld, also for you!" The Queen of Underworld never thought her painstaking efforts to manage the Netherworld would end up being turned against her by you.
A disdainful snort appears on your face, "It’s all just for yourself and that old man behind you who can never see the light of day! But I don’t care; fame and lust for power are just like a sweet potato to me — at most releasing a fart after swallowing. But, you should never have, never ever should have incited your dog to kill my brother!"
The Queen of Underworld said nothing, at this moment, she did not know what to do or how to calm the sadness and a sliver of hatred in her heart. Saying that the Queen of Underworld doesn’t hate you would be a lie, especially since Sablin really died right in front of her.
You, however, did not have as many concerns as the Queen of Underworld. Originally, you did not feel much belonging to this organization. The Netherworld is no longer the Netherworld it used to be; at most, you only know up to ten people now in the Netherworld. Updates are released by NovєlFіre.net
Your body gradually floated into the air. Under everyone’s gaze, you announced the thought that had been lingering deep in your heart for the past two years: "From today on, I am no longer the King Ming of the Netherworld. Henceforth, everything in the Netherworld has nothing to do with me. My former brothers, no matter where they are now, they are still my brothers. Anyone wanting their lives must first consider if they can endure my roar."
"You...you’re really that ruthless!" Something called tears started to circle in the Queen of Underworld’s eyes, and the sudden change left her somewhat at a loss. After all, she was just a girl around twenty years old, even though her intelligence was much more mature than the average person, she was still too naive on emotional aspects. Plus, the clash between Eastern and Western cultures and aristocrat-commoner perceptions made the gap between the Queen of Underworld and King Ming grow wider.
You continued looking at the Queen of Underworld with cold eyes and spoke in a tone devoid of any emotion, "Victoria, you may not have noticed, there has always been a gap between you and me. Perhaps it’s the numerous affairs of the Netherworld that made you neglect, perhaps it’s your innate nature as a princess of the royal family, in short, the relationship between us is now severed. If..."
At this point, you paused, to be honest, you really didn’t want to be too harsh. You understood Victoria’s intentions, but you knew very well that there was no possibility between you.
Moreover, for you, the greatest threat and impediment to this world was the old man behind the Queen of Underworld, the Netherworld Emperor!
"If, forget it, the words end here!" After speaking, your body vanished instantly under everyone’s gaze!
With your departure, the entire Tulip Building erupted, and at this moment, a thought surfaced in everyone’s mind — "A Netherworld missing its King Ming, is it still the Netherworld?"
After the wall of space blocking the Queen of Underworld disappeared, she staggered to her knees in front of Sablin’s corpse, tears of remorse pouring down. At this moment, the Queen of Underworld resembled a naive little girl, crying heart-wrenchingly and sorrowfully.
However, in a corner unnoticed by people, a Middle Eastern woman’s face showed a trace of indifferent smile. She quickly walked out of the Tulip Building, passed through several streets, and finally entered a secret room. In the secret room, the woman opened a satellite communication device, soon connecting it to a very special encrypted channel.
"How did things go?" On the other side of the channel, a woman’s voice also came through.
"Successful completion, King Ming and the Queen of Underworld have fallen out, and King Ming announced permanent departure from the Netherworld."
"Oh? Really!?" Clearly, the other end of the communicator didn’t expect things to progress so smoothly, "Tell me everything you know."
"Yes! Three days ago, Sablin..."
More than half an hour later, in a courtyard in the Dubai Manor, Tifa was carefully watering the bamboo and Ding Xiang in front of her. A woman in an Arab outfit approached quickly and whispered in her ear.
Shortly after, a brilliant smile appeared on Tifa’s beautiful and delicate face. She turned to the northern sky and laughed coldly, "Seems alliance is no longer necessary. Queen of Underworld? Just a long-caged bird trapped in gilded bars. Saying that man is her true love, yet she doesn’t even know what he truly needs, ridiculous!"
Tifa seemed to have thought of something else and spoke to her subordinate, "Immediately cancel all previous actions, and also have those people retreat from Sweden quickly!"
After the subordinate left, Tifa looked up at the deep blue sky above her, muttering to herself, "That’s how this world is, survival of the fittest, hope you don’t blame me, elder sister."
The news of the King Ming and Queen of Underworld’s breakup quickly spread throughout the realm. The interior of the Netherworld also began to experience intense turmoil, splitting into two factions — one hoping to follow King Ming, while the other wanted to continue working under the Queen of Underworld’s rule. Among them, those wanting to follow King Ming, after discovering they could no longer contact him, tried to support the old ministers who used to follow King Ming. But upon learning that King Ming had left the Netherworld, these old ministers quickly went silent.
These old ministers, also being the pinnacle powers of the Netherworld, had accompanied King Ming in establishing it, each making significant contributions to the Netherworld. In their eyes, the so-called Queen of Underworld was just a secretary to King Ming. Now that King Ming has left, they naturally would choose to follow him immediately.
Yet, what they couldn’t understand was that King Ming vanished without a trace and never returned, nor did he make any arrangements for them, simply leaving as he did.
