"I'll arrange it right now!"
The man smiled coldly after understanding what the Reincarnation Emperor had meant.
"Wait!" The Reincarnation Emperor gestured for his subordinate to stop. "I'll handle it myself."
The man was surprised. "Your Majesty, you don't have to take such a risk. If Lord Yama knows where you are, it's inevitable that he will suspect you! Don't forget about what is imprisoned in the ninth layer of hell."
Hearing this, the Reincarnation Emperor trembled slightly.
"You mean I can secretly release that thing and make it do my bidding?"
"That's exactly what I mean.
It was so ferocious that it had the ability to slaughter a cultivator of the Superior God Realm even ninety thousand years ago. When that guy is killed, even Lord Yama could not blame you for not coming to his rescue. Isn't that the perfect plan?"
The Reincarnation Emperor became hesitant.
He had seen how ferocious that thing could be.
Ninety thousand years ago, a Defiant Master had broken into Yama's palace, raging on and on about how he wanted to kill Yama.
When that happened, Yama's soul had been seriously injured. He was no match for that Defiant Master.
Later, Yama had no choice but to flee to the ninth layer of hell, and the Defiant Master followed him there.
The Reincarnation Emperor had seen it all happen.
With his own eyes, he saw a deformed creature rush toward the Defiant Master out of nowhere. Its skin had rotted away, exposing the fresh, pink muscle underneath. That beast fought against the Defiant Master for ten days and ten nights. On the tenth night, it tore him to pieces.
It was not until later that the Reincarnation Emperor learned that Yama had the power to control the beast. That was why he had lured the Defiant Master down there.
After that, Yama partly revealed how to control the beast to the Reincarnation Emperor.
Why did he do that?
He was afraid of having his life in danger again. That was why he let his most reliable servant in on his controlling method.
At the present day, the Reincarnation Emperor wanted to release the beast to kill Darren. However, this would put him severely at risk.
In case that Yama found out he released that beast, he would surely die a miserable death.
"Your Majesty, why are you still hesitating?"
"Stop talking nonsense. Can it be released at will? If I can't lock it up again after I release it, both of us will die. Do you understand?
Once you mention such a foolish idea again, I will kill you!"
Darren was not worth such a big risk.
"Yes, yes, yes. It's all my fault."
"How about this? Send twenty warriors at the low-level of the Celestial God Realm in there. Make sure that they can kill that brat."
At the very beginning, the Reincarnation Emperor had planned to deal with Darren by himself. However, when he thought of the terrifying beast, he felt afraid. He thought that twenty warriors at the low-level of the Celestial God Realm were enough to smash Darren into pieces.
"Yes. I'll do it right away." The man bowed to him respectfully before going on his way.
The Rule Soul Avatar and Jenifer were thrust into a dark passage.
They kept falling and falling, and it seemed that the bottom was nowhere near. The air was getting colder and colder. Even a powerful cultivator like Jenifer felt the piercing coldness.
The Rule Soul Avatar immediately activated the flame law on Jenifer's body, which enveloped her in warmth.
"Darren, I'm a little scared."
Jenifer leaned against the Rule Soul Avatar.
The Rule Soul Avatar recalled how his real body acted when he was with Elsa in the past. He imitated it, holding Jenifer tightly in his arms.
In those moments, Jenifer no longer felt afraid. She felt safe and warm in the Rule Soul Avatar's arms.
After falling for a long time, they fell down in a chilly place.
There was no ice or snow, but the blood mist was thick and dense.
It was deathly silent. Not even the wind could be heard.
The Rule Soul Avatar and Jenifer stayed frozen where they stood.
They used the time to cultivate. After a few days had passed, the Rule Soul Avatar seemed to sense something and suddenly opened his eyes.
