The Immortal Who Returned from the Netherworld Road – Chapter 38

Ch 38: Leaving

Inside Villa Number Nine, Xi Yang lay weakly on the sofa, his eyes empty and dazed, staring straight at the ceiling. His heart was filled with helplessness and despair, and the spirited and unrestrained self he once was seemed to have gone far away. He now understood that many things were beyond his control, especially when facing those with ulterior motives. Even if he didn’t deliberately expose anything, they could always detect clues from subtle details. After all, these people made a living by such means.

After thinking for a long time, Xi Yang finally made an important decision—to leave here. He clearly realized that he had inadvertently exposed himself to those people’s sight, and it would probably be difficult to live a peaceful and stable life in the future. Staying here would not only be of no benefit but would also involve him. Instead of waiting for death, it would be better to take the initiative and look for a new beginning.

With this in mind, Xi Yang reached out and took out his mobile phone from his pocket, skillfully dialing his father Xi Changsheng’s phone number.

Before long, Xi Changsheng’s familiar and slightly rough voice came from the other end of the phone: “Xi Yang, why are you suddenly calling Father? Is something the matter? You haven’t gotten into trouble again, have you?” Xi Changsheng’s tone revealed a hint of worry and nervousness.

Xi Yang took a deep breath, trying to calm his emotions, and then said softly, “It’s nothing, Father. I just wanted to ask how you’ve been lately? Is your health okay?” His words were full of concern for his father.

“Hey, how can a working man not be tired! Just focus on your studies and don’t worry about unnecessary things!” Xi Changsheng said.

“Dad, pay more attention to Mom! I’ve heard things aren’t too peaceful outside lately!” Xi Yang said.

“Okay, if there’s nothing else! I have something to do, I’ll hang up first! Take care of yourself!” Xi Changsheng hung up the phone in a hurry.

Xi Yang murmured, take care! I can’t stay here, the coming storm is far beyond what you can bear! I’m sorry!

“Bang!” With a crisp sound, the phone was slammed hard on the ground, instantly shattering into countless pieces. Although this thing could receive signals, it would also expose him completely. Everyone who uses a mobile phone is like displaying themselves naked in the online world. In this way, this mobile phone is no longer safe and must be discarded.

In the room, Xi Yang quickly packed a few sets of clothes and neatly put them into the Universe Bag.

Subsequently, Xi Yang stepped out of the gate of Villa Number Nine and walked further and further away.

Before long, raging red flames suddenly burst out from inside Villa Number Nine. The fire was extremely fierce, and in the blink of an eye, the entire villa was engulfed in flames.

Standing on the summit of Niubeidong Mountain, Xi Yang looked remotely at the direction of Villa Number Nine, his heart filled with complex emotions. He personally killed Liu Zhengtian, the former friend who had now become an enemy. The trickery of fate was lamentable, and even if he had gone through the path of cultivation, he could not change this helpless reality.

After coming down from Niubeidong, Xi Yang returned to his old home with complicated feelings. He gently pushed open the weathered and eroded door, and a long-sealed dusty smell rushed to his nose. His gaze slowly swept over every corner of the house, and a deep sense of emotion and helplessness welled up in his heart. He sighed softly: “I wanted to help you fulfill your filial duties, but fate has never given me a smooth journey…”

Then, he came to the hall of the house and walked to the altar. He casually picked up a stick of incense, lit it with a lighter, and clasped his fists in front of the altar.

His voice was low and firm: “Ancestors of Xi Yang, I am grateful for your gift of this body. However, I really cannot repay this kindness. Today, I will leave here and will not return for at least ten years. If one day I can return to this place, I will definitely make this family live a prosperous life!” After saying that, he inserted the incense into the incense burner.

Finally, he casually placed the household register on the table in the hall, gently closed the door, and quietly left. The whole process did not disturb anyone, just like when he came, silently coming and quietly leaving.

At the same time, in a deep mountain in Xizhao Town, Cang Cong looked nervous, vigilantly observing the movements around him, for fear of being discovered. He patiently waited for a moment, and after confirming that no one was following him, he quickly darted into a dense forest and disappeared without a trace in the blink of an eye.

In a secret passage in the deep mountains, Cang Cong knelt down in front of a Black-Robed Man wearing a black coat. Xi Dong, whose blood had already drained, lay quietly there.

The Black-Robed Man said in a deep voice, “Was it possible to find out Xi Dong’s purpose?”

Cang Cong shook his head, his eyes sweeping over Xi Dong beside him, “He’s dead, killed by a middle school student!”

The Black-Robed Man looked at Xi Dong, who had become a corpse, and was silent for a moment, “Tell me what you know about that middle school student!”

“Yes!” Cang Cong took out a stack of documents from his arms, “Xi Yang, a resident of Xizhao Town. Three weeks ago, he was seriously injured and on the verge of death, but later miraculously recovered. After that, he became like a different person, skipping school and not attending classes every day. The most strange thing is that this family’s knowledge of crystals is extraordinary. He can always pick out the most valuable crystals from thousands of Rough Stones. Later, I don’t know how, he offended Senior Brother Wei Shan’s junior brother, and Wei Shan assassinated Xi Yang overnight. As a result, Wei Shan’s brothers both fell into his hands. It was also at that city that our National Security brothers detected it.

Subsequently, this guy brought back a large number of good crystals at the Longxi Gambling Stone Market. It was just that he offended the Wen Family because of this, so he provoked Li Deng of the Netherworld Hall to take action.

After Li Deng died, Xi Dong was drawn out. In the end, it caused the Villa Number Nine massacre! All of this seems to have happened after that serious injury and awakening!”

“Has this middle school student’s current strength reached the Profound Level?” the Black-Robed Man asked indifferently.

“No, he is now at the Yellow Level Peak, the realm about to break through!” Cang Cong said.

The Black-Robed Man turned his head and glanced at Xi Dong on the ground, then sucked his body in front of him. He slapped the top of his head with a palm.

Immediately, a ball of red flame ignited in his hand, quickly turning Xi Dong’s body into ashes!

“Tell me, what are your plans?” the Black-Robed Man said indifferently.

Cang Cong said, “It’s very simple, either recruit him for our use, or kill him! The last time we raised a tiger and suffered the consequences is still vivid in my mind.”

The Black-Robed Man asked, “What do you think we should do?”

“Uh!” Cang Cong didn’t expect him to ask this question, and thought to himself, if the Lord intends to keep him, he will not give himself the decision. Immediately, he said confidently, “This person has a wild heart, and probably can’t be used by us?” As he spoke, he made a click.

The Black-Robed Man frowned slightly, then nodded, “Go do it?”

Cang Cong looked at the impatient Black-Robed Man, and couldn’t help but wonder in his heart, did I guess wrong? But didn’t you agree? Alas, what’s going on?

Saying that, he shook his head and turned to leave.

After he left, the Black-Robed Man took off the black coat on his body, revealing a delicate and beautiful girl’s appearance.

If Xi Yang saw her appearance, he would definitely be shocked. This person was none other than Yan Ming, who stole Xi Yang’s money.

She looked at the stone cave outside, with a hint of a smile on her face, “Xi Yang, no matter how powerful you are, if you offend me, I will leave you with a whole skin.”
