Chapter 396: Lord of the Underworld

Artemis nodded and stood up: "Yes, we...or you, still have a long way to go."

The two walked out of the house side by side, and the next second they were back in the desolate volcanic area.

The surrounding environment was still the same, and it seemed that someone had come out earlier than them.

Oniriyi sat on a stone, looking in the direction of the entrance in a panic.

When he saw Li Yang and Artemis coming out together, he finally breathed a sigh of relief:

"Okay, okay, you two made it out successfully."

"I thought I was the only one who came out."

Li Yang was a little confused: "What did you see? It came out so fast?"

Oniliyi smiled awkwardly:

"I am the God of Dreams. I can control things like dreams."

"Not to mention, my body is still a star beast."

"Floating in the universe with nothing to do, living as I please, and taking things as they come is the meaning of my existence."

"This place didn't reflect my fear, so... I just admired the heat death roar of the universe, and then walked right over."

"What about you?"

Li Yang and Artemis looked at each other, smiled helplessly, and replied in unison:

"It's nothing, I just went home."

Oniliyi nodded thoughtfully, and then sighed:

"Sigh... It's a pity that a being like me who has no past has no chance to see my past."

"The other two... seem to be a little immersed in it too."

After saying that, she slowly raised her head, and then looked at the entrance.

Jiang Xiaoxiao, Demeter.

A mortal, and a god reduced to mortals, trapped together in the horrors of the past.

The three of them waited patiently for a while.

Jiang Xiaoxiao and Demeter still seemed reluctant to come out.

"Well...if you're really bored, why don't we take a look?"

Oniliyi suddenly suggested.

Then, he raised his hand towards the two people over there.

"Although I can't affect what they see,... I can still connect with their dreams and let us see what they see."

"Just like...watching TV, there should be TV in God's Realm, right?"

Artemis nodded: "Yes, our place is called Mijing."

Oniliyi called out the screen: "Anyway...please take a look."

...

This is what Demeter saw.

Before the link was established, a roar was already one step ahead and came from the screen:

"Presumptuous! As a new generation, a third-generation god with pure blood..."

"How dare you say such outrageous things?"

"Are you worthy of the respect of the God King!?"

Demeter stood in a magnificent hall, facing a god wearing a luxurious robe.

This god's face is solemn, and his eyes reveal unquestionable majesty.

Behind him were neat rows of statues of gods, each exuding an awe-inspiring aura.

"I...I just think that we should no longer only care about our own interests and ignore the suffering of all living beings as we did in the past."

Although Demeter's voice was weak, it was full of determination.

"Hmph, are you questioning the God King's decision?"

The god sneered, with a trace of disdain flashing in his eyes, "You are challenging the order of the entire divine world!"

"I...I just hope that we can pay more attention to those lives in need of help, instead of only caring about our own status and power."

Demeter's voice gradually became firmer.

The god's face became even more gloomy. He slowly stood up and walked towards Demeter:

"You are challenging God's authority, do you know that?"

Demeter did not flinch, she looked directly into the god's eyes:

"I know, but I'd rather be on the side of truth than be a blind follower."

After saying that, she suddenly sighed slowly:

"Oh, that's enough..."

"You promised to make people see scary things, but why did I see you followers?"

"Put it back in for me to quarrel with you...it's really interesting."

"You continue to worship your God-King. I am going back to continue my unfinished mission."

Artemis smiled:

"It seems that this traitor to God will come back to us soon."

"Look at the other one."

"I'm very curious about what Jiang Xiaoxiao dreamed about..."

Oniliyi nodded repeatedly and switched the perspective of the dream...

The picture becomes blurry.

Then, there was a loud "bang" sound.

In the picture, a lifeless and gloomy cemetery appeared.

Surrounded by large buildings filled with the aura of death, as well as ghosts floating everywhere.

"Isn't this...where we came in in the first place?"

Oniliyi was a little surprised.

Li Yang had already expected it: "She said that she had been to this place by chance."

"This was her fear... it was clear that this place made a deep impression on her."

Artemis observed the scene quietly, a trace of deep thought flashed in her eyes.

Jiang Xiaoxiao stood in the gloomy cemetery, looking around, as if looking for something.

Her steps staggered, and there was unspeakable fear on her face.

"This... this is not real. I can't be afraid. I can't be controlled by fear."

Jiang Xiaoxiao murmured to himself, trying to embolden himself.

She walked slowly towards a tombstone with her own name and life engraved on it.

Jiang Xiaoxiao's hands trembled as he touched the cold stone tablet, and a trace of pain flashed in his eyes.

"I...I can't die here. I still have unfinished things and things I want to do that haven't been realized."

Jiang Xiao's voice gradually became firmer.

At this moment, a cold wind blew by, and the ghosts in the cemetery began to gather, forming vague figures.

They surrounded Jiang Xiaoxiao and let out shrill wails.

"No, no, you can't stop me, I won't stop here!"

Jiang Xiaoxiao closed her eyes tightly, clenched her hands into fists, and shouted loudly...

Then, two words popped out of his mouth that surprised Li Yang and his party:

"Father, don't stop me anymore!"

"Let me out!"

"Father!?" Oniliyi was stunned and suddenly became a little confused.

She looked at Li Yang, then at Artemis, and asked a question that no one could understand:

"She...isn't she human?"

"Look at what this means. Her father is related to this dream?"

"The world within the Gate of Death... was created by the original God of the Underworld..."

"That person should be the only one who can control this place."

"So...her father is Tartarus, the god of the underworld?"

"That existed hundreds of millions of years ago!"
