The Anarchic Consort c1-1376

by Warring Young Seven

  Chapter 680 - She Summoned A Great Figure!

  "His Highness is right. There are clearly two parts in this competition. The first task is to summon the judge, while the second task is to exorcise the hostile ghost." Elder Xu Wu took one step forward as his eyes darted back and forth. Then, he announced: "The Third Prince and Third Princess Consort were indeed quick and efficient. They annihilated the hostile ghost in no time, but they failed to summon the judge."

  The exorcists looked at each other in dismay when they heard Elder Xu Wu's words. Under normal circ.u.mstances, the judge must be summoned first, this was for them to use the dark spirit within the judge to lure the hostile ghost out of its mortal shell.

  However, this time, the hostile ghost was decoyed merely by Helian Wei Wei's 18 yellow runes, without the help of any other external force.

  Everyone knew that if this competition was judged solely on skills, Helian Wei Wei and Baili Jia Jue would be the undeniable champions.

  However, the rules must be adhered to. Their failure to summon the judge might just cost them their victory… This was just like the first round when someone actively tried to suppress the winners via the technicalities of the game.

  Elder Xu Wu was a good actor as he shook his head and said, "It's harder to summon the judge than eliminating the hostile ghost. We can all understand why the judge didn't turn up for the Third Princess Consort have used up all her power on the ferocious hostile ghost. Eventually, she couldn't spare any of her power to summon the judge. That's such a pity."

  It required enormous spiritual energy to maneuver the 18 yellow runes.

  Helian Wei Wei was truly a powerful and formidable opponent.

  Due to her impatience, youth and inexperience, she had recklessly channeled all her spiritual energy at once to exorcise the hostile ghost. Consequently, she failed to reserve any spiritual aura for the second task. It was to no one's surprise that the judge did not make an appearance.

  Elder Xu Wu chuckled, thinking that Helian Wei Wei had reached the limit of her capability. He was pleased that he could finally gauge her real strength.

  However, much to his surprise, Helian Wei Wei's lips curved into a half smile as she drawled, "Is it true that I failed to summon the judge?"

  What?

  Elder Xu Wu's expression changed abruptly as he violently turned his head around.

  Helian Wei Wei gathered her palms together as her inky black hair fluttered in the wind.

  It was apparent that the spiritual aura Helian Wei Wei was brewing within her palms was even more powerful than before.

  She simply stood there as gusts of wind swept past her from all directions, causing her cloak to sway along the wind. Overwhelmed by waves of fog, she remained motionless within the darkness as she chanted a few incantations. She squinted before she shouted, "Show yourself!"

  Her words were succinct but it was extremely menacing.

  Immediately, a corner of the Great Hall was frozen.

  The fog within the shadows slowly rolled into turbulences before it began to condense, as though something was about to materialize.

  All ministers were running out of breath.

  The dark fog dissipated as something fell onto the ground.

  A five years old boy appeared in the middle of the Great Hall. He seemed to still be occupied with his work. He held a stamp with the word "Yama" in his one hand, while he rested his chin on the other hand, appearing as though he was bored of his job. He carried a pacifier in his mouth and wore a top head, with the word "Yama" written on it, on his head. Coupled with the black gown he was wearing, the boy looked extremely exquisite. Apparently, he did not expect to arrive at the human world all of a sudden. Dumbstruck, he was rooted at the spot. When he finally understood the situation, he cursed discreetly, "Who sent me to the ancient times? Send me to the modern era if they want to transport me! I swear you people are deliberately trying to separate me and Little Hook! How shameless!"

  Who… who is this child?

  The ministers were stunned, baffled at the sight of the little boy who was standing in the middle of the Great Hall.

  Wasn't she supposed to summon a judge?

  Why did this boy appear instead?

  "Fourth brother, don't you think the boy has a very familiar voice?" said the reaper who was about to leave but had stopped in its tracks.

  The fourth brother let out a laugh before answered, "Indeed! He sounds rather familiar. I almost had an illusion, thinking that I have returned to hell. Otherwise, why would I have heard the son of King of Hell's voice?"

  Wait a minute. He's the son of King of Hell?

  Oh, my god!

  He really is the King of Hell's son!

  That's not good! Worrying that his son might be involved in puppy love, he has ordered us to keep a watchful eye on his son to make sure that the boy never gets out of hell, or we will be punished.

  Now, the son of King of Hell has been summoned to the human world.

  He will even meet the Great Demon King in person.

  What now?

  What should we do?

  The King of Hell's son remained composed. He looked at the eyes of the bystanders that were fixed on him before he took out a little mirror and struck a pose confidently. He heaved a sigh of disappointment. "I have dressed up, but I will not be able to meet Little Hook. What a waste!"

  Helian Wei Wei stood behind him. From the moment he appeared, she found this silhouette familiar. After watching his behavior, she became certain that he was the same child she met before.

  At this moment, the King of Hell's son whipped around. His eyebrows rose in surprise as he eyed Helian Wei Wei before he put on a wicked smile. "So, you are the one who summoned me. What's the matter? Couldn't stop missing my pretty face after our last meeting?"

  Helian Wei Wei was rendered speechless. What would I miss a five-year-old kid?

  "Unfortunately, you have no chance." The son of King of Hell put away the mirror and said in a serious tone, "I will only love Little Hook till my last breath."

  I'm a married woman, Helian Wei Wei thought to herself.

  "But, I can grant you a chance to kiss the back of my hand." The son of King of Hell reckoned that he was being generous!

  Upon hearing this, Baili Jia Jue sneered. He approached the boy from behind, stared at the boy with his icy eyes and scoffed, "So which hand would you like to discard?"

  With strenuous effort, the son of King of Hell raised his head before he noticed how muscular the man's slender legs looked from this angle. His chiseled and fair face was glowing like a crystal. The man had pinned his gaze on the boy.

  The son of King of Hell was greatly intimidated, causing him to choke on his own saliva!

  The… Great Demon King!

  The child quickly shut his mouth. He studies Baili Jia Jue with his amber-colored eyes before he hurriedly fled the scene!

  How could they not inform him about the return of such a dangerous creature!

  Did they not know that the malicious Great Demon King was among one of the people that he feared the most!

  The Great Demon King was flagitious.

  He began to recall the time when he was a three-year-old.

  It's not like he is very much grown up now!

  He labored from dawn to dusk when he first succeeded his father's duties.

  He had to stamp doc.u.ments and also supervise the reaper's work.

  The work was so taxing, causing him to look sick and worn out!

  However, this Great Demon King still had the time to not only pick a fight with his father but also to cause a commotion in hell.

  He forced him to remove the name "Helian Wei Wei" from the Book of Life and Death...

  Chapter 681 - Foolish And Ashamed!

  What a joke! How can someone lay hands on Book of Life and Death?

  It is a serious matter that concerns one's rebirth!

  I, the unyielding son of King of Hell, will never compromise!

 
However, the Great Demon King cut my beloved ebony hair!

  He even threatened to shave me bald if I refused to hand him the Book of Life and Death!

  I might be young, but I'm a self-conscious boy.

  Eventually, I surrendered the Book of Life and Death to the Great Demon King...

  It was definitely not because I was afraid of him!

  My pretty face will be wasted if I'm bald!

  However, he could not find the name "Helian Wei Wei" within the Book of Life and Death.

  Only three kinds of entities, namely the demons, deities and some special cases, were excluded from the records of hell.

  The special cases were certainly not within the hell's jurisdiction.

  He recalled how the Exorcising Tribe summoned the Flame of Heaven and Earth to confine the Great Demon King in a mortal shell.

  I reckoned that his primordial spirit has been completely destroyed. How is he able to return?

  As the son of King of Hell pondered on this question, a man grabbed him by his collar from behind!

  In synchrony, the reapers exclaimed, "No!"

  "You have not answered my question. Which hand do you want to discard? Why are you trying to run away? Didn't you want her to kiss the back of your hand? Huh? Do you want me to cut off both your hands personally?" Baili Jia Jue picked up the son of King of Hell, as if he was a little chick, to his level and stared into the boy's eyes before he sneered, "Or, perhaps you prefer me to shave your head bald?"

  The son of King of Hell quickly cradled his head and replied in a serious tone, "Can't we talk peacefully? I have a family now and I can't just shave my head bald."

  The crowd was fl.u.s.tered by the situation.

  This kid is only five years old.

  And, he has a family?

  Elder Xu Wu finally pulled himself together. He stared at Helian Wei Wei before he burst out laughing, "Hahaha! Third Princess Consort, where is this judge you were referring to? Are you trying to hoodwink us with this little kid?"

  Helian Wei Wei raised her eyebrows in silence, but her lips curved into a meaningful smile.

  The son of King of Hell let out a contemptuous laugh even though Baili Jia Jue was still grabbing him by his collar. He put on a wicked and ferocious expression before he asked, "Who are you calling as a little kid?"

  Mouth agape, Elder Xu Wu was glued to the spot as if he was frozen by an unknown force. He could not utter a single word. Following that, his shadow became out of his control as it slowly moved toward the little boy!

  Zongzheng Wen Ren was the first person to notice that Elder Xu Wu was acting strangely. He could not comprehend the sudden waves of Qi of Yin. It was more overwhelming and intimidating than the time when 10 judges were summoned at once.

  "What is happening?"

  Apparently, he was not the only one who was affected. The magical instruments in every exorcist's hands were buzzing menacingly as if they were trying to escape from an unprecedented danger.

  The perturbed exorcists looked at each other helplessly. What shocked them more was the fact that the person who was wreaking the havoc was the little boy who was standing before them!

  "Stupid." The son of King of Hell bared his canines. He had the appearance of a child. However, the Qi of Yin he was born with absurdly threatened everyone, causing them to shudder involuntarily.

  Elder Xu Wu had never expected to be restrained by a little boy.

  By now, Zongzheng Wen Ren had sensed something unusual about the situation. He put in a strenuous effort to voice his question, "Who are you?"

  "Who? Me?" The son of King of Hell could not strike a pose at this moment as he was still lifted up in the air. Therefore, he blew his fringe and smirked. "You will know who I am when you are dead."

  "No. Your Highness, you cannot act impulsively here. This is the human world and we're restricted rules and regulations. If you kill someone here, the King of Hell will never allow you to come to the human world again!" The reapers quickly halted him, witnessing how rapidly the situation had progressed. Similarly, they dared not get too close to the son of King of Hell because the Great Demon King was still in proximity. He was extremely terrifying!

  Owing to the presence of the huge group of reapers, the temperature in the Great Hall had plunged to near freezing point!

  The exorcists' hearts nearly leaped out of their c.h.e.s.ts. There is… such a huge group of reapers! And… what did they just call that little boy?

  Your Highness?

  Zongzheng Wen Ren's expression changed abruptly as if he was greatly astounded by the scene. He completely lost his composure when his gaze landed on the word "Yama" word that was written at the top hat on the little boy's head. "You... what is your relationship with the King of Hell?"

  "He's my father." The son of King of Hell replied with an indifferent tone. He felt so proud as he spoke for he finally had the chance to boast about his father.

  Zongzheng Wen Ren's grip around the Peach Blossom Sword loosened when he heard the boy's words. A loud clang rang when the sword fell onto the floor. He staggered backward and fell into his seat. He mulled over the words. "How is this possible! This is impossible!"

  "Nothing is impossible." The son of King of Hell snorted, "It's not strange for me to appear in the human world. So, don't make a fuss about it." He looked at Helian Wei Wei and said, "Woman, can you ask your man to put me down? It is hard for me to pose if he continues to hold me up like this."

  Helian Wei Wei was speechless. How can he even think about posing under such circ.u.mstances?

  Similarly, the exorcists were rendered mute out of shock after they heard what the son of King of Hell said!

  In other words, the person Helian Wei Wei summoned was not a judge, but the King of Hell's son!

  That's right!

  They regret for not acknowledging Helian Wei Wei as a powerful woman.

  Not only that, they regretted their decision to follow the envoys to the War Dragon Dynasty for the competition!

  Even Zongzheng Wen Ren had to concede and acknowledge Helian Wei Wei as a Great Master.

  Such astounding cultivation could only be achieved by the members of the Exorcising Tribe.

  Their opponent had always secured the triumph since the beginning of the competition.

  They felt like a buffoon to have acted conceitedly.

  The exorcists wished to hide under the rock as they recalled how disdainful they were toward their rivals.

  Wu Jing was pleased to read their expressions. He guffawed and said, "So does this mean that we won?"

  "Of course." Liu Yu appeared calm but he failed to conceal his excitement in his tone. "The princess consort has summoned the son of King of Hell. Therefore, nobody should be nitpicking and mocking our princess consort about her exorcising skills anymore."

  Zongzheng Wen Ren could no longer argue about it. He felt like he had been punched squarely in the gut. The burning pain of embarrassment was indescribable...

  Chapter 682 - No One Expected His Highness’ Brilliance

  His spiritual aura and Taoist art were no match for Helian Wei Wei's...

  Zongzheng Wen Ren placed one of his hands on his forehead as he lowered his head, ashamed to lift his gaze.

  He could clearly sense the gazes of the onlookers that were fixed on him.

  It got increasingly difficult for him to hide his emotions.

  He was like a conceited jester who had been boasting in front of the experts, and eventually, become the one to be ridiculed...

  The absolute victory caused the palpable excitement to buzz through the changed air!

  Zongzheng Yu Er parted her lips, as though she had something to express. However, she merely made an inaudible voice before she was interrupted.

  The exorcist who was standing aside spoke, "Princess, please stop arguing. Helian Wei Wei is prettier and stronger than you. She could defeat the Crown Prince, not to mention you. She will definitely be everyone's preferred candidate. Besides, she is the primar
y consort who is officially married to the Third Prince. You'll humiliate yourself if you continue to pick on Helian Wei Wei. "

  Upon listening to the exorcist's remark, Zongzheng Yu Er's words died in her throat. "Bai Yue, please remember that you are a citizen of Xuanyuan Kingdom, not the War Dragon Dynasty. Do you even know what you are saying? Who do you think you are speaking to!"

  "Of course I know who I am speaking to. Your Highness, you are the princess of Xuanyuan Kingdom. You should have given up when you were rejected the first time. However, due to your shamelessness, you have not only humiliated yourself but also the people of the Xuanyuan Dynasty." Exorcists in the Xuanyuan Kingdom had always had high reputation. The more powerful the exorcist was, the more arrogant he or she would be, and Bai Yue was a perfect example.

  Zongzheng Yu Er never thought that she would be reprimanded by people of her own nation. She opened her mouth, but no word escaped her throat.

  She was surrounded by exorcists from the other countries. They were staring at her with eyes full of apparent disdain, as though she was unworthy of her title as a princess!

  Zongzheng Yu Er's face was flushed red as if her heart had been scalded by boiling water. She had never been publicly embarrassed before.

  Zongzheng Yu Er looked at Huangzi Nation's messenger expectantly, hoping that he could support her.

  However, after he witnessed the commotion, realizing how the exorcists of Xuanyuan Kingdom despised their princess, Lord Wang was unable to argue with them.

  He was looking at the big picture.

  Since the War Dragon Dynasty had won the competition, their plans to besiege the city had become obsolete.

  Then, the Third Prince would probably not do anything to them.

  After all, no country would attack visiting envoys violently.

  As long as they did not continue to provoke the Third Prince, they would be fine.

  This was why Lord Wang agreed to the proposal to lay siege to the Capital.

  At worst, they would simply lose the competition.
