Chapter 1338: Chapter 1338
Good heavens, a box of this normally lasts three months for ordinary women, but for Magpie... she’s just too big, and her head is naturally large, too...
Magpie specifically chose a stormy night, swooping over the roof of the Baker Family mansion where they all lived. She extended her claws and lifted their roof—a dozen or so members of the Baker Family, men and women, were caught with their pants down in the pouring rain and turned into drowned rats.
There was also Topeka Hall. They had once treated Mister Sun indifferently in the Summit Metropolitan Office, leaving a black mark on their history. But, they had managed to regain his forgiveness by adopting a low profile later on. This time, they were also colluding with the big boss, participating in the slavery business.
But the Master was magnanimous and did not hold a grudge. In contrast, Magpie had always been petty. Every time she hunted, she would deliberately fly over Topeka Hall’s fleet of ships. This damned fellow, tearing her prey apart in the air, scattered blood and guts all over their ships from the sky!
Topeka Hall’s manager in the area was just walking along the road when bird droppings fell from the sky. Had it been regular bird droppings, he would have just cursed his luck and moved on, but as for Magpie’s...it was so big that it could have killed him by impact or by drowning! It thoroughly disgusted the manager.
This troublesome creature caused havoc among the Wood Dynasty people for a few days and then became even more rampant; she headed straight for the island where Miss Ilda resided...Miss Ilda dared not to hit but did not want to tolerate, which led to the usually gentle Seven Mountains Power to become furious.
When Mister Sun appeared in the Substantial Void Heavenly Road, everyone was so moved that they were almost in tears. "Dear Master, please take back your senior maid quickly."
Magpie immediately chirruped and flung herself towards Master as soon as she saw him. Mister Sun was startled: What on earth was this colorful monster?
Yes, Magpie had swallowed the Dragon Pearl and advanced to a genuine Tier-7, and an exceptionally powerful one, at that. However, the pearl’s owner was a jade-green, horn-scaled female dragon, which resulted in Magpie taking on a colorful, eye-catching hue herself.
Magpie’s taste had always been peculiar; she looked at herself in the mirror and felt that she was incredibly beautiful now. And so, she happily waited for Master to return under the Substantial Void Heavenly Road.
The moment she saw her Master, Magpie leaned her huge head toward him as she had always done, pushing against his hand to force his caress. Master abruptly withdrew his hand, not because he was scared of Magpie, but because she now had a green tuft of hair standing upright on her head. It was so shiny and green that it was really inauspicious!
Master carefully avoided the green strand, rubbing Magpie’s huge head firmly. Little Ghost Gregory Ryan crawled out, bowing, "Welcome, Master."
He was now Tier-6, but only because his elder sister helped him advance, making him not very strong for his level. Mister Sun was wondering if he should give Gregory Ryan a post in the Miniature Underworld this time.
Magpie squeezed over again, rubbing against Master with her huge body.
"Alright, alright," Master was about to be pushed off balance by Magpie’s weight, and he could see the resentful eyes of everyone around him. Mister Sun quickly put two and two together and guessed the whole truth, given Magpie’s nature.
"You have a lot of free time in the Eastern Land, don’t you? Hurry up and go back. Bat Taoist and Boundary Flower are waiting for your help!" Master sent Magpie back. Magpie didn’t like Bat Taoist, but she got along well with Boundary Flower. She circled around Master a few more times before finally leaving, satisfied.
Master Sun stayed under the Substantial Void Heavenly Road to deal with some official business, delaying him for half a day. Then, he set out to return to the Summit Metropolitan Office.
Nowadays, the Miniature Underworld is full of a myriad of wonders, and its influence has spread throughout the entire Wood Dynasty. Especially in recent times, a "River of Forgetfulness" has emerged around the Miniature Underworld, causing an uproar among the Unique Cultivators!
It just so happened that the "Grand Gathering" was taking place during those days, and the number of Unique Cultivators pouring in from all directions reached 400,000! Among them were numerous Tier-6 powerhouses.
The Tier-6 Unique Cultivators of the Wood Dynasty had never cared about these so-called "Grand Gatherings" and "Small Gatherings." They were once all heroes with their own territories, and with King of Souls at Tier-6 back then, they were equal in status. Why should they attend his gathering?
But things were different now. The Miniature Underworld was undeniably the leading influence among the Unique Cultivators, so these fellows rushed from miles away to "show their support."
It proved challenging to maintain order at the bustling Grand Gathering, and eventually, an army of 30,000 Ghost Soldiers was mobilized.
At this Grand Gathering, the Miniature Underworld collected a staggering amount of wealth in taxes. As they looked at the thriving Miniature Underworld, the four members of the King of Souls felt exceptional satisfaction, knowing that they had made the right choice when they pledged their allegiance to their Honored Lord.
There was no need for the four of them to watch over the Grand Gathering, as they had gathered mainly to enjoy a moment of achievement. Suddenly, the Drowned Ghost Princess sensed something and slipped silently into the River Water... How could the other three not notice? They rolled their eyes together: this woman’s got the lovesick bug again.
Wave after wave of River Water brought the Envoy of the Honored Lord, Little Loach. He felt that there was no need for him to step in anymore. However, Elder Brother was not the real "Honored Lord," so the responsibility still fell on the Second Brother.
Along with Little Loach, the Commander’s Token emerged, suspended above the Miniature Underworld. The four members of the King of Souls bowed and knelt down, "Welcome, Honored Lord."
The voice of the Honored Lord rang out with a hint of satisfaction, "Not bad."
