Transmigrating over ten thousand years late, I was forced to become a mighty presence

Chapter 405: Chapter 185: The Deeply Hidden Bull Head_1

Inside and outside of Fengdu City, there was deathly silence.

Even the eight Netherworld Commanders lurking in the shadows had not expected that Netherworld Commander Wasp, with the support of the Fengdu Big Array Formation, would be defeated so swiftly.

One moment he seemed like a supernatural being that could stir heaven and earth, and the next, he was suppressed before Fengdu City by the might of the Divinity Path Will, like an ant struggling in vain.

More shocking than the battle itself was the phrase uttered by Netherworld Commander Bull Head.

Netherworld Commander Wasp suddenly looked up at that Emperor’s Carriage, his voice filled with shock and disbelief.

“The Emperor? Impossible, how could there be an Emperor descending to this world!”

Then Netherworld Commander Wasp’s eyes fixed on Bull Head, his face twisted as he roared:

“Bull Head, don’t you think that by asking a powerful expert to suppress me, you can freely impersonate the imperial edict. How exalted is the figure of the Emperor, and how could he appear in this secluded world?

It must be that you have secretly stolen some precious treasure and taken control of the Fengdu Big Array Formation to counteract me, causing the current situation.”

“If the esteemed lords find out that you have privately conspired with outsiders and disturbed the order of the Netherworld, they will definitely cast you into the 18 Levels of Hell, where you will never be reborn!”

Within the Emperor’s Carriage, Shen Yuan listened to Netherworld Commander Wasp’s wretched words, his gaze growing slightly deeper.

Having taken control of the Fengdu Big Array Formation, Netherworld Commander Wasp had acquired power nearly comparable to that of a Void Refining True Monarch in this Yin World, which exceeded Shen Yuan’s expectations.

If it weren’t for the fact that he was seated upon this mountain throne, Shen Yuan’s Gods Purging Divine Power would not have received such a tremendous boost, allowing him to harness both the incense offering willpower within Netherworld Commander Wasp and the might of the Divine Path externally to form suppression. Otherwise, he might not have subdued Netherworld Commander Wasp with ease.

And from Netherworld Commander Wasp’s reaction, the latter seemed to not acknowledge the suppressive force displayed by Shen Yuan, even denying the exalted rank of the Emperor claimed by Bull Head.

To Shen Yuan, this represented a problem, neither large nor small.

Shen Yuan did not possess the overwhelming power to subdue the entire Netherworld; what he truly relied on was the surge of the Divinity Path.

If this surge could be acknowledged by others, with Shen Yuan’s status as an Emperor and the force of the Divinity Path for suppression, even a Heavenly Immortal descending would have to bow their head.

However, if this surge were to be disrupted and fail to coalesce, causing others to doubt Shen Yuan’s identity and Divine Skills, then even a Ghost King at the Spirit Refining Stage would dare to make a move and probe.

The current Netherworld Commander Wasp was one who sought to disrupt the surge of the Divinity Path. Although he was already suppressed, he remained a significant hidden danger to Shen Yuan.

If he couldn’t eliminate this hidden danger, it would surely cause problems in his subsequent plans.

With his mind made up, a murderous intent arose within Shen Yuan.

Looking directly at Netherworld Commander Wasp, who was suppressed on the ground by the power of the Divine Path, Shen Yuan was well aware that even at a disadvantage, Wasp dared to speak such words because of his status as one of the 10 Netherworld Commanders and the support of the 10th Hall Yama behind him.

While killing him on the spot could certainly deter the other Netherworld Commanders, it would inevitably bring more trouble.

But when it came to the surge of the Divinity Path and the subsequent confrontation with the Netherworld, Shen Yuan could no longer afford to care about these concerns.

With a light lift of his right hand, Shen Yuan was about to first strip away his foundation in the Incense Offering Divinity Path.

A Netherworld Commander at a level comparable to the Void Refining Stage, even when suppressed, was not someone Shen Yuan could easily kill; he could only strip away the opponent’s Divinity Path foundation and wait until Wasp weakened before landing a fatal blow.

But just as Shen Yuan was ready to make his move, Netherworld Commander Bull Head, whose pace had not slowed, already dragged the Emperor’s Carriage to the gates of Fengdu City.

In front of him was Netherworld Commander Wasp, with a ferocious expression.

The bull’s hoof slowly rose, then without any pause, crashed down heavily.

In an instant, the earth roared as if a bull-headed deity was shaking the mountains and valleys, its power so immense that it could level heavens and earth, causing the entire Fengdu City to tremble violently with the fall of the bull’s hoof.

Netherworld Commander Wasp never expected Bull Head, who had only uttered a single sentence, to suddenly make a move. With all his Divine Path power suppressed, he was utterly unable to resist Bull Head’s strike, and his enormous head exploded under the bull’s hoof, his Spirit Soul escaping from his body and trying to flee swiftly.

But as Netherworld Commander Bull Head was one of the 10 Netherworld Commanders, specializing in handling Spirit Souls, how could he be unaware of Wasp’s Spirit Soul tactics?

Netherworld Commander Bull Head’s seemingly silent and honest head grew immensely large in a split-second, and his fierce, gaping mouth swallowed the fleeing Spirit Soul in one gulp.

Like a bull chewing cud, he moved his lips, tearing and chewing the Spirit Soul, with the sounds of Wasp’s wails and curses emerging constantly from Netherworld Commander Bull Head’s mouth.

Outside of Fengdu City, everyone shuddered at once.

They believed that with Bull Head’s strength, it would be an easy task to obliterate Wasp, who only had his Spirit Soul left, and that there was no need to chew and tear with his teeth.

The only explanation for such action was that Netherworld Commander Bull Head did it deliberately.

As for the reason…

In the minds of all the Ghost Generals guarding the city, the phrase “assaulting the Emperor’s processional carriage” suddenly surfaced.

As the wailing sounds utterly vanished, Bull Head swallowed the shattered Spirit Soul into his stomach, and that bull face displayed an apparently honest smile as he spoke:n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om

“Thank you, Your Majesty, for bestowing upon me such exquisite soul food.”

Inside the Emperor’s Carriage, Shen Yuan’s uplifted hand slowly lowered, his eyes filled with profound meaning as he looked at Netherworld Commander Bull Head.

He had already harbored the intention to kill Netherworld Commander Wasp, but had not expected that Bull Head would take the initiative.

By easily killing Wasp in the position of a servant, Netherworld Commander Bull Head’s subsequent words were enough to deter others, thereby consolidating Shen Yuan’s power far better than if Shen Yuan had acted himself.
