Chapter Ten

"Sis!" The male envoy looked sincerely at his sister, looking extremely disgusted, which was how I felt.

"Go away, if you want to chat, chat!" The female envoy covered her face with her hand.

"Come, watch me perform!"

"Sorry, I don't accept negotiations." I looked at him seriously, enjoying the sight of him eating snow with his mouth wide open.

"What a waste of time!" The female envoy drew her long scythe and swung it skillfully, but it was clear that it wasn't her exclusive weapon. Underworld envoys wouldn't use their own weapons unless necessary, as it would easily create enemies. Uniform weapons and attire made it difficult for enemies to identify who their enemies were.

The scythe was clean and sharp. Although I didn't dodge, someone couldn't hold back anymore.

Lilith quickly emerged from the woods, her right hand wrapped in the Underworld Fire, wedged under the scythe. But everyone knew Lilith's height, she had to use levitation to wedge herself under the scythe before it reached her head.

"Nana sis."

"Lilith?" The female envoy recognized the petite figure that appeared in a flash.

"I told you not to come out so quickly, didn't I? Why don't you listen?"

"You know you're low on magic power, so don't refuse negotiations so easily! Besides, it doesn't hurt to talk, right, Nana sis!" Lilith seemed to know the Underworld envoy.

"Lilith, you shouldn't have appeared. Even if you intervene, nothing will change. Father won't accept it. Just summon the two souls." The male envoy finally had a chance to speak.

"Nilo!"

"Hey hey, Lilith, you call my sis Nana sis, so I'll call her by her name. After all, I'm your brother!"

"You've never been a good brother, have you?"

"Lilith, it's not our fault. It's the prohibition imposed by Father... We're afraid you'll go berserk... Only my sis dares to defy it, I don't dare." The male envoy said the middle sentence very softly, as if he was saying it to himself, but not really.

Well, with their constant talk about Father, anyone with a brain would understand. These are all children of the Underworld King. It's common for fathers to have their children work under them.

"Lilith, give me a reason." Nana put away her scythe.

"They are the parents of my friends. I... really want to help them, just half an hour, that's all I want! Nana sis." Lilith lowered her head sincerely, pleading with her only sister who she was relatively close to. Despite her usual easily angered personality, she stood resolute in the snow, even in her plea, showing no intention of backing down.

"Hey..." Nana looked at Lilith, then sighed deeply, indicating that she really had no choice, and said, "Countdown for half an hour, starts now." Then Nana found a protruding stone and sat down to wait.

"Hey sis!" The male envoy walked to his sister's side, looking at his sister's eyes filled with an irreversible decision, and helplessly sat down beside her, murmuring silently, "If Father finds out, he'll be locked in the little black room again!"

"Lilith..."

"Qin Yang!" Lilith's gaze glanced into the distance.

"He can't leave!" Nana said softly.

Through the black clothes, it seemed like she really had some impression. Who exactly was she? It seemed like she could easily remove his black robe with just one hand. The unknown feeling was annoying.

"Yes, yes!" I leaned against a tree and waited.

In the past twenty-seven minutes, the male envoy seemed very anxious. He hadn't taken his eyes off the time for a single second. He ranked 107th among the heirs of the Underworld Prince, named Nilo. There were 67 heirs ahead of him in line for the position of Demon King. Among the remaining 40, 28 were confirmed dead in the war between gods and demons, two died due to the eruption of divine fire, and seven were born with insufficient innate power and died in infancy. Three were lost in dimensional space, their whereabouts unknown, their life and death uncertain.

In these twenty-seven minutes, Lilith learned various information about the heirs of the Underworld Prince. Lilith ranked last, the youngest in age, and one of the three heirs who inherited the divine fire but didn't go berserk and die.

The Underworld King was already old, and the heirs were always in demand. Achieving outstanding results in the daily operations of the Underworld was one of the indicators that attracted the attention of the Underworld King.

"Three minutes left, even if you can't find them, don't think about reincarnating them privately. They are already in our records and can't escape!" Nilo drew his scythe, unable to wait any longer.

The souls of recently deceased captured by the emissaries of the underworld in the three realms are recorded in the register. Even if they manage to reclaim their unauthorized reincarnation, they will be hunted down and brought back. Only their original bodies can be reborn. This is the law. Some people take advantage of the time difference to reincarnate the deceased. The mother is a human version, completed before the emissaries of the underworld could find her, and the cost of reincarnation is quite high.

"Rise!" With a command, the Magic array I set up beneath the layer of snow immediately took effect.

"When did this happen?" Two emissaries of the underworld looked in astonishment at the Magic array that trapped them.

I stood before the two emissaries with a smile and said, "Actually, I was already prepared before Lilith had her conversation with you. But since Lilith managed to buy half an hour, I didn't use it immediately."

"You actually set up a Magic array in the special zone? Why? Clearly, other attribute Magic arrays cannot be used in the special zone!" Nilo saw the Magic array surrounding him filled with red thunder. Although he couldn't remember all the functions of the special zone, he still remembered the commonly used ones. Only dark Magic could be used in the emissaries' special zone.

"Isn't it strange? It depends on who invented the special zone!"

"What? No matter what you guys have, if you don't release us and hand over the souls, we will use our special means to notify all the emissaries in the imperial capital. They will arrive immediately, and even the divine fire won't be feared. We have ways to deal with it. Lilith, you better not go on a rampage here, or else the king won't exile you to The Human Realm for just two years of leisure."

Exile? So that's why Lilith doesn't want to go back!

"Do you fear when I'm here?" I reached out my hand to Lilith and asked.

"I..." Lilith hesitated for a moment and didn't immediately reach out her hand. Perhaps in her heart, she was still afraid. Shadows would spread along with fear, and too many people were enveloped in inescapable shadows throughout their lives. Who would help her break free? Only herself.

"Do you remember who can help you yourself?"

"It's me!"

"I can give you courage. Will you still be afraid? Lilith Gull, with me here, I won't let the infernal fire devour you. The rest is up to you. Dare you take a step forward?"

"I do!"

"Tell me, are you afraid?" Ignoring the calls of the emissaries of the underworld, I stared at Lilith.

"Not afraid!" Lilith decisively took off the necklace around her neck. The raging infernal fire suddenly ignited, with a powerful impact like a torrent. Lilith saw people who had been devoured by the infernal fire in the past, swaying back and forth.

I held onto Lilith's hand and suddenly ignited the fire of the celestial demon, suppressing the wild infernal fire in an instant.

"The fire of calamity!"

"The flames that torment the flesh!"

"The flames that torment the flesh!"

"The flames that condemn the soul!"

"The flames that condemn the soul!"

"Embrace your kindred brothers!"

"Embrace your kindred brothers!"

"I command you in my name!"

"I command you in my name!"

"Merge into one, revealing the form of disaster!"

"Merge into one, revealing the form of disaster!"

"The ashen fire of calamity!"

"The ashen fire of calamity!"

The ashen flames swept through the "special zone"!

"The Witch of Misfortune!" The flames reflected the image of a wicked witch, accompanied by a chilling laughter.
