An Hao’s subordinates did not dare to breathe heavily when thev were in Tomb Four. The moment they came out, they became bold. They tried all kinds of ways to smear Xue Fanxin’s name and talk about An Hao and Zhao Tong’s deaths. They were filled with righteous indignation and said that Xue Fanxin had gone too far, disregarded the Nine Nether Holy Land, and killed people from their Nine Nether Holy Land.
After all, someone had died. Even the people outside the Holy Land were people, so this matter had to be reported to the higher-ups. Furthermore, someone from the higher-ups should step forward to deal with it.
When the Nether King returned previously, he had already instructed them to report to him if any news of someone being killed came from the Nine Nether Holy Land today. Otherwise, how could such a small matter alarm the Nether King?
Before long, An Hao’s subordinates were all brought to the center of the Nine Nether Holy Land and stood in rows in the courtyard.
Because this was the first time they had come to the center of the Nine Nether Holy Land, everyone was very nervous and had a bad feeling.
According to the rules of the Nine Nether Holy Land, even if small fry like them died, they would only be dealt with by a steward of the Holy Land. Even the four young masters of the Nine Nether Holy Land did not take them seriously, let alone the Nether King.
However, it was said that the Nether King wanted to deal with this matter personally. Why was that?
Could it be that Commander An Hao’s identity in the Nine Nether Holy Land was not simple and even the Nether King was alarmed?
If that was really the case, they would have committed a huge sin if they had failed to protect Commander An Hao.
Even now, no one thought that An Hao’s death was actually insignificant.
Ye Jiushang was not anxious at all. He got An Hao’s subordinates to wait outside slowly while he sat in the room and drank tea. Thinking back to the lively nosebleed inducing scene in the hot spring just now, another fire of desire burned in his body.
He really wanted to eat that girl up as soon as possible so that he would not have to suffer so much.
Xue Fanxin put on her clothes in the space. After a long time, she calmed herself down and was not in a hurry to go out. She busied herself with other things in the space and fertilized the flowers and plants. She saw how many leaves the Tree of Life had grown and counted how many fruits had grown on the Five Element Tree… Anyway, she only came out after finishing what she had to do.
At this moment, it was almost dark outside, and the group of people standing outside the courtyard were already so tired that their legs were sore. However, no matter how tired they were, they had to bear with it. After all, the person who wanted to see them this time was the Nether King.
“Why hasn’t the Nether King come out yet?”
“Shh… Do you want to die? How can we casually talk about the Nether King?” No one dared to complain. Even if they were displeased, thev had to work hard to suppress it.
Xue Fanxin had no idea that someone was standing outside. She only came out after doing everything in the space. The moment she came out, she saw Ye Jiushang sitting there drinking tea. When she saw a certain lord, those embarrassing scenes immediately appeared in her mind.
“Ah Jiu… Why are you still here?”
“I’ll naturally wait for my beloved consort here.”
“Come here.”
“What?”
“Hug you.”
Before Xue Fanxin could react, a gentle force suddenly sucked her forward. Right on the heels of that, she fell into a warm and firm embrace.
“Ah Jiu…”
“Be good. You’ve been cooped up in the space for a day. This is equivalent to leaving me here for a day, so you have to make it up to me now…”
“You…” Xue Fanxin’s face instantly turned red. Just as she was about to speak, she heard a falling sound from outside, followed by someone’s voice.
