Chapter 2471: Die With Me Zu An flitted up to where the arrow exploded. Terrifying shockwaves were still rippling outward from the center of the explosion. He quietly looked at the bloody surroundings. The Mermaid Queen and the others rushed over too. They were startled by the devastating shockwaves. “It’s too little blood. He’s probably still alive,” Princess Ni Huang voiced her conclusion. “He is the renowned Incestuous King, the third-strongest expert of the Monster World. I wouldn’t be surprised if he has some escape method,” the Mermaid Queen said. “Hmph! So what if he’s the third-strongest expert? He’s lacking a lot compared to big brother Necropolis!” Princess Ni Huang looked at Zu An with an admiring gaze. I’d expect no less from the man I fancy! The Mermaid Queen rolled her eyes. The Peacock Princess turned her attention from the Sun Slaying Bow to Zu An’s name. I should ask big sis queen whether Necropolis is his real name. “This works out too. It’s fate that he escaped.” Zu An chuckled. The other women were taken aback. Why does he seem happy about Mojard’s escape? Of course Zu An was happy. His earlier arrow had been more than enough to kill Mojard, but as he was releasing the attack, it had suddenly dawned on him that the future wouldn’t line up if Mojard died here. Fearing the chain effects that could ensue, he'd held back 30% of his energy. If not for that, Mojard wouldn’t have been able to escape. That being said, after being struck by an arrow from the Sun Slaying Bow, it was unlikely Mojard would recover anytime soon. Zu An suddenly recalled Mojard’s mention of the severe injury he'd suffered in the past that caused him to lose his memories and his cultivation to regress. Zu An frowned. Did I leave that injury on Mojard? He turned to the decimated monster army. If I’m not wrong, they should be Mojard’s core force. With their death, Mojard no longer has the means to compete with the Monster Lord. No wonder he became like that in the future. He lost his pride and his foundation. Zu An was amazed by fate’s mysticism. He wondered if this was all predestined or his doing. The next thing they had to do was to clean up the battlefield, but both the asuras and the shamans looked hesitant. Zu An understood their worry and retracted the Oblivion River Water. Only then did the asuras and shamans excitedly rush in to loot the items. These were the monster army’s elites; there were many experts in their ranks, so the artifacts and resources they had were not to be scoffed at. Zu An allowed them to take whatever they wanted. I’ll consider this their compensation. Otherwise, they would be no different from slaves if I kept making them fight for free. Princess Ni Huang approached Zu An and said, “Big brother Necropolis, we can’t stay here for long due to the curse. We’ll have to return soon.” Her voice betrayed her yearning. She lamented not being able to stay with Zu An. Those two women are lucky! “I’ll free you from your plight once I gather all six power insignias,” Zu An promised. “I believe you can do it. I’ll be waiting...” Princess Ni Huang had many more words to say, but she could already feel a powerful summoning force compelling her to return. Fortunately, some things could be expressed without words. She tiptoed and planted a kiss on Zu An’s cheek. Zu An was taken aback. The Mermaid Queen and the Peacock Princess were shocked. The two of them were on the verge of exploding. Does that woman think we’re invisible?! Princess Ni Huang was about to move on to Zu An’s lips when the curse dragged her back to the underworld. The Mermaid Queen and the Peacock Princess hurriedly stopped moving. To alleviate the awkwardness in the air, the Mermaid Queen asked, “Where did Princess Ni Huang go?” “She returned to the underworld. They can’t leave that place for long.” Looking at the disappearing asura army, Zu An made a mental note to take note of the time if he summoned them again in the future. Ox Head and Horse Face approached Zu An and passed him a round token. “Brother, if you need anything, you can call us with this token. I assure you we’ll do better than those asuras!” They didn’t want Zu An to get too close to the Asura race. That could be detrimental to the Shaman races in the future. On top of that, this battle had been fruitful for them. They'd obtained many resources that couldn’t be found in the barren underworld. It was two birds with one stone—they could get on closer terms with Zu An while enriching themselves. Zu An accepted their token with a smile. He was more than happy to befriend Ox Head and Horse Face, who were going to play important roles in the underworld in the future. Soon, a mysterious power transported Ox Head, Horse Face, and the shamans back to the underworld. Zu An examined the round token. It was the size of a mooncake, carved with bizarre human faces. He had seen similar images on the Shaman races’ accessories. It contained faint spatial energy that allowed him to summon the shamans, just like the Asura race’s military seal. “Why did that woman call you big brother Necropolis?” the Peacock Princess asked. “I’ll use Necropolis as my name from this day on.” Zu An thought that he still needed an identity. He couldn’t remain unknown in history after doing so many things, so he decided to use an apt name for it. This was the perfect name for his new identity since he hadn’t met the Necropolis Emperor at the Eye of the Ocean, and no one in the underworld had ever heard of the latter. Thanks to Mi Li’s explanation, Zu An had a rough grasp of how spacetime worked. It felt mystical to enter history, create it, and become a part of it. “Alright, big brother Necropolis!” The Peacock Princess was happy to have finally learned his name. The Mermaid Queen smiled as well. I’m so happy! I’m the only one who knows his real name. Despite their close ties, she wasn’t planning to share this information with the Peacock Princess. The Peacock Princess wanted to ask about the underworld, the Asura race and the Shaman races, and how he'd won the heart of yet another beautiful princess in just a few days. But with Zu An and the Mermaid Queen focused on saving the Ocean races, she couldn’t bring herself to ask those questions. “Where are the Four Dragon Kings?” Zu An asked the Aurora Poison Dragon. The earlier situation had shaken the Aurora Poison King’s nerves. He hadn’t expected the powerful Incestuous King and the invincible monster army to be obliterated just like that. Knowing he was doomed, he laughed madly. “Hahaha, you will never find them! The Ocean races are finished! Everyone shall die with me! My life shall not be in vain!” He activated his final trick and exploded, causing his poisonous blood to diffuse into the surroundings.
