Chapter 429: Cui invades
Chapter 429: Cui invades
King Yemma’s office was located at the center of Underworld. It was a towering palace surrounded by golden clouds; its only roof could be seen, vaguely. Also, light-red glazed tiles were laid on the top of the palace, reflecting bright and sparkling lights.
At the main entrance of the palace, two bizarrely dressed creatures that possessed cow-like horns and numerous Ogre Guides were maintaining order. They were making rows of floating souls enter the King of Hell’s palace in an orderly manner.
Chi-Chi, as the new Kami of earth, had never seen the King of Hell before, so when she saw King Yemma for the first time, she was startled by his enormous size.
After they explained their purpose, King Yemma burst into loud laughter, his booming voice shaking the entire office area into a mess. Goku and the others couldn’t help but use their hands to cover their ears.
“So, you want to meet Kai-sama? However, it will not be easy to pass through the Snake Way. Young Kami, are you determined?”
“Yes, King Yemma, please allow us to enter Snake Way,” Chi-Chi said quietly. She was neither haughty nor humble.
King Yemma gave her an admiring look, nodded and said, “You have more guts than your predecessor…. Fine, I’ll allow you to pass. Kai-sama is the most exalted deity of our entire North Area, so don’t be disrespectful to him,” After saying this, King Yemma ordered the Ogre Guide next to him.
“Follow him, and he will bring you to the entrance of the Snake Way.”
“Thank you.”
Everyone nodded, thanking King Yemma. Then, they followed the Ogre Guide, bypassed the Underworld’s judgment hall and boarded an outdated car; soon, they reached the entrance of the Snake Way.
The entrance was that of the huge head of a snake with a gaping maw, resting on golden magical clouds whose boundaries couldn’t be seen. Its endless serpentine body lay afloat above the golden magical clouds.
“Everyone, we have arrived. That is the Snake Way. As long as you advance along the snake’s body, you can reach Kai-sama’s Planet; thus, I wish you all a safe journey. I will go back first!” The Underworld’s Ogre Guide pointed at the huge snakehead and said.
Chi-Chi and others smiled and nodded at him, and then they looked towards the Snake Way. “Then, we should set foot on Snake Way. Everyone, be careful, I heard that there are many traps above the Snake Way. Besides attacks from hell, there are also layers of illusions, so everyone should pay attention.”
“All right!”
“Don’t worry.”
Goku and others nodded, and then they stepped on the Snake Way.
Swoosh!
With a few rapid illusory lights, they flashed and instantly turned to black specks, disappearing from view.
…
Meanwhile, outside Earth’s atmosphere, a small meteor-like-spaceship streaked across the night sky, rushing towards Earth at full speed.
Beep! Beep! Beep!
Following a series of beeps, a unique electronic sound came from the spaceship, “Approaching the target planet, Earth!”
“Repeat, approaching the target planet, Earth!”
The hibernation system shut down, and the indigo-skinned Cui leisurely woke up. He looked at the beautiful blue planet in the distance through the porthole, the vent-like tubular lump of flesh on top of his head swaying.
“Humph, so that is Earth… It is quite beautiful.”
Cui sneered as he drove the spaceship towards Earth’s atmosphere.
As the spaceship entered the atmosphere, the friction with the air caused the surface of the spaceship to glow red, appearing like a scorching ball of fire as it dragged a long tail behind it.
Somewhere on the outskirts of a farm, a huge ball of light streaked across the sky, and with a bang, it crashed on the grassland more than ten kilometers away.
It was not rare for meteors to appear on Earth, but meteors that could successfully land on the ground were quite rare as most of them got burned in the atmosphere. The loud crash immediately caught the attention of the owners of the surrounding farms, and they hurriedly drove towards the location of the crash.
….
A few kilometers away on the grassland, the lush green grass swayed in the wind, like waves causing ripples.
The spaceship hit the grassland and smashed open a huge crater with a diameter of more than twenty meters in width and about six or seven meters in depth. The splashing sand and dust cast a greyish-brown shadow above everything in a 100-meter area.
At the center, the small spaceship lay buried in the middle; black scratches appeared on the white hull due to the impact. This was an area where the out-dated spaceships weren’t as effective. Cui’s spaceship was different from Vegeta’s and others with spherical spacecraft, but the landing method was the same—simple and rough.
Creak!
The spaceship trembled a few times and slightly floated; then, the hatch slowly opened, and an alien donning a Battle Armor walked out.
Cui coughed, walked out of the spaceship and then jumped out of the crater. At this moment, the single-glass monocle energy detector on his ear beeped, and then more than a dozen numbers appeared in front of his eyes.
Looking at the numbers displayed on the glass monocle, Cui shook his head in disdain.
“Hehe, another useless race. Looks like there’s no challenge this time too.” Cui licked his dark indigo-colored lips and stretched his wrists with a scornful look, preparing to slaughter.
In the eyes of a powerful warrior, especially one with a Battle Power of 18000, earthlings were as weak as ants that could be pinched to death anytime.
“You… Who are you?”
More than a dozen farmers gathered around, armed with shotguns. When they saw the Battle Armor on the alien’s body, their hearts fiercely palpitated, and a stifling feeling rushed into their hearts.
Beep! Beep!
The detector flashed a few times and showed a prompt displaying the strength of the farmers.
“Trash, only 5 Battle Power. Oh, one of them has reached 7, but he is also trash.” Looking contemptuously, Cui leisurely raised his hand and pointed a finger at a rather “strong” farmer in the distance.
Xiu!
A cold light ray flashed, and a red laser shot out from his fingertip, penetrating the farmer’s chest.
The farmer fell to the ground, scarlet blood flowing onto the ground.
“Ah, bastard!” Someone roared with unwillingness. The attack happened so fast that they couldn’t react.
“Everyone, be careful… he must be an alien harboring evil intent. Not good, aliens have invaded Earth again… “
“We must spread this news.”
The death of one of the farmers suddenly caused the situation to become chaotic. Gunfire spat out from the muzzle, but Cui just extended his finger and shook it in front of him, causing the bullets to fall onto the grassland.
“Haha, what a stupid race. Let Uncle Cui send you off to meet the King of Hell!”
Cui laughed wildly and waved his hand, throwing out an energy beam. A crescent ravine of more than five meters in width and twenty meters in length, appeared in front of the farmers, burning them all to ashes.
“Hehe, courting death… Let me take a look at the Battle Power of the other aboriginals on this planet.” Cui tapped the glass monocle, and then a series of numbers were displayed.
“4!”
“3!”
“11!”
“45, 21, 3, 67, they are really trash. Huh? There is actually someone here with a Battle Power of 4400. They are 8900 kilometers away. Isn’t the disparity too big?” Cui couldn’t help but laugh. Although he was somewhat surprised, he didn’t care too much and continued searching. He found two very powerful signal sources in the northern hemisphere.
“7100 and 1200 Battle Power… how can there be such powerful energy sources on this low-level planet?”
Cui was a little surprised, but then he coldly snorted and soared into the sky, flying towards the target which had the strongest energy reaction in the northern hemisphere.
….
In a mountain pass 8900 kilometres away, Yajirobe was slashing at a waterfall with a katana. The blade of the sword never touched the water surface as a sword ray flashed past, severing the waterfall before it then continued to flow.
Suddenly, Yajirobe lowered the katana and stared at the sky with a sharp look.
“This evil Ki… could it be that someone has entered Earth again?” Yajirobe shook his head with a smile and put away the sword on his back; then, he flew towards a direction.
