1372 An Emissary From the Great World (1/2)

He took a sip of orange juice from the transparent glass he held in one hand. The refreshing taste as the juice rushed through his throat made him sigh in satisfaction.

”He should not be a God. How could Gods exist in such a remote place? At best, he's a Demigod.”

The corner of his mouth twitched. Then, he stood up from the chair, still holding the orange juice, and walked up to the mast. He put a hand on it and stared at the black fog.

Rolling slowly, the black fog finally came before the warship.

”I am Di Ting… The Lord of the Great Netherworld.” A warm voice rang out of the fog, pleasant to the ears.

”Di Ting? A nice name. I'm Alpha, the Lord of Silver Warship, and a man who travels the starry sky. Well met,” the man said. ”I once heard an ancient proverb, which goes like 'what a joy it is to have friends coming from afar!' I'm sure you welcome my arrival, aren't you?” he smiled, looking at Di Ting, then finished the orange juice in one gulp.

”A man who travels the starry sky? You don't have to humble yourself, my lord. I know you're an emissary from the Divine Dynasty…” Di Ting's voice was still warm.

Alpha's pupils constricted. He never thought Di Ting would reveal his identity so quickly.

”Oh? You're an interesting native. Well then, I'll be honest with you. Someone told me about this place, so here I am. I never expect that I will find a newly formed great world, though.” He chuckled. ”It seems you're having a hard time forming your great world. I can't believe you excluded two small worlds.”

Di Ting's eyes seemed to flicker in the black fog. ”Someone told you about this place? Sure enough…” he murmured.

Alpha was too lazy to engage in chit-chat with Di Ting, so he went straight to the point. ”I suppose you have reported your great world to the Laws of the Universe, haven't you? If you did, you are part of the Divine Dynasty, and we will have your record. In that case, I'll not make things difficult for you. A border emissary will come here soon and take charge of your great world. Before that, however…

”You will have to please me. After all, the Divine Dynasty's border emissaries are not so accommodating,” Alpha said, his eyes gleaming.

Di Ting's eyes flickered once again.

Buzz…

At this moment, one puppet after another flew over at great speed.

”Oh, my little darlings are back.” Alpha smiled as he looked into the distance, where numerous metal puppets came from with plumes of white smoke behind them. Soon, they all hovered over the silver warship.

”You…”

A hint of anger crept into Di Ting's voice. He thought the man had gone too far. The Lord of the Winged Man Valley, the Great Buddha of the West Little Buddhism Realm, the Realm Lord of the Wandering Soul Realm, and many others… These were all the leaders of the small worlds under the Great Netherworld, and yet they were captured by this man. Was he trying to threaten him?

Those from the Divine Dynasty were truly unreasonable.

Suddenly, Di Ting's pupils constricted further. He saw a familiar figure covered in blood and trapped inside one of the metal nets. 'Nether King Er Ha? Even he's been caught?' That gave him pause. 'Did this guy go to Earth Prison as well?'

”Oh?” Alpha gave a little cry of surprise as he focused his eyes and looked into the distance. A puppet was flying over from that direction, staggering with a miserable appearance. Half of its body was smashed, while the other half was covered with cracks. If its core had not been in good condition, the puppet would have exploded.

That enraged Alpha. He stepped up and glanced at it with a pained look on his face. Suddenly, the puppet's mechanical eyes flashed, then horrible energy burst out of its body.

Boom!

It exploded abruptly, generating flames that engulfed Alpha in an instant.

Di Ting did not move. If the explosion killed Alpha, he would clap and cheer. The blast was powerful and violent enough to blow a Nine-revolution Great Saint into pieces.

”Dammit…” A gust of wind scattered the flames. Broken metal pieces and mechanical parts were everywhere, but the warship was unscathed by the explosion. Standing in the middle of the explosion, Alpha held a leaf in his hand. Frightful energy surged on his body, stopping the power of the explosion from hurting him. His eyes were cold and ruthless as he crushed the leaf with his hand.

”Who dares destroy my little darling?!”

Alpha's face was cold. He couldn't believe one of his metal puppets was destroyed in such a remote place. It seemed that he had to teach these natives a hard lesson…

He produced the metal plate and glanced at it, then he immediately found that the puppet that had just exploded was the one who went to the Immortal Cooking Realm. Information about the realm was shown on the plate as well.

”A small world inhabited by chefs… How dare a rubbish small world like this destroy my metal puppet?! They're courting death!” The aura that exploded out of Alpha was extremely terrible.
