chapter 0511 part 2
He didn't know exactly what Tang Song had sent them, these Reincarnators, to this World to search for, but it was definitely not someone's brother's soul. But what was strange was that according to the geomantic compass's guidance, the thing they were looking for was indeed on that person named Xia Dongqing.
Acha was precisely the Underworld King of this World, Acha. She was also the biological younger sister of the former Primal Human Leader, Chi You!
Back then, Chi You led the Primal Human tribe to rebel against Heaven and fight against the Ancient Gods!
After failing, Chi You was torn apart by five horses. His head was suppressed under Mount Shouyang, and his four limbs were sealed in various places around the World. However, his pair of eyes were hidden away by Acha.
Using her identity as Underworld King, Acha secretly used the power of Samsara from the Underworld to continuously nurture Chi You's soul hidden within the two eyeballs, wanting to resurrect her brother! In this life, she chose Xia Dongqing as the sacrificial offering for Chi You's resurrection. She didn't expect her plan to be detected by K'un-Lun. The Ancient God sent Jiutian Xuannü down to the mortal world, which led to the entire Soul Ferry story.
After Tang Song's sky sealing and earth locking, Underworld King Acha decisively retreated back to the Underworld after witnessing Tang Song's divine ability of capturing Ying Zhao with a single palm strike.
Anyway, even if the sky falls, the Ancient God, that Old Undying One, will bear the brunt. She wouldn't be the one to stick her neck out—
What she didn't expect was that she had only just returned to the Underworld when she received a phone call from Zhao Li, saying that he and Xia Dongqing were being chased, and the other party was likely coming for the soul of Chi You within him.
For her brother, the unwilling Acha could only force her way out of the Underworld—
Unfortunately, she didn't expect Tang Song's strength to be so powerful!
The moment she broke through the barrier sealing the Underworld, she knew the price of provoking Boss Tang.
Tang Song's sky sealing and earth locking was precisely to prevent the supernatural power of this World from interfering with his search for the eternal particle and the main god's remnant artifact, especially the power of the Underworld.
If the eternal particle were to roll around in reincarnation a few times and have its aura washed away, it would be truly difficult for him to find this thing.
Precisely because of this, the Underworld was also a key target of Boss Tang's sealing. Underworld King Acha was like a bighead carp hitting a sealing fishing net, directly hitting Tang Song's muzzle.
Although Tang Song was discussing the Way with that Old Monk at the time, just a little bit of power he dispersed was not something Acha could resist! Under a single strike, this Lord of the Underworld was severely injured.
However, a dying camel is still bigger than a horse. Although Acha was severely injured by Tang Song's palm strike, she was not someone Constantine and Harley Quinn could withstand.
"This guy..."
Constantine looked at Acha before him. He really wanted to explain the misunderstanding to Acha who appeared out of nowhere.
But he, being cunning, understood that there existed an irreconcilable conflict of interests between them. However, the attitude of this mysterious woman who suddenly appeared made Constantine certain of one thing: the thing Boss Tang was looking for was on that scrawny convenience store clerk, Xia Dongqing.
Moreover, this person also had other secrets on him. One body, two souls, or something else? Constantine's mind raced, integrating the existing clues while looking for a way out. For him, the problem now was how to get away from Acha before him—
In the vision Constantine saw after activating spirit vision, magic smoke visible to the naked eye was dissipating from Acha's body, wrapping around her like clumps of cloud mist—
The energy intensity was so high, it was even stronger than the First of the Fallen! Run! This was the only thought that surged in Constantine's heart after witnessing Underworld King Acha's power! Constantine showed no change in expression, neither hurried nor slow, as he threw the half-smoked cigarette in his hand onto the ground. He took out a cigarette that was stuck in the pack upside down.
The moment he took out the cigarette, his right hand holding the cigarette, his ring finger hooked, sending a signal they had agreed upon to Harley Quinn.
Harley Quinn, who originally had the corner of her mouth twitching and a crazy clown smile on her face, lowered her head and remained silent after seeing Constantine's action, starting to rummage for things in her bag of tricks.
"Who told you Chi You's soul is inside Xia Dongqing? Where are you from? K'un-Lun?"
Acha stared at Constantine and Harley Quinn with an unfriendly expression! The matter of Chi You's eyes being inside Xia Dongqing was known only to her and a few others like Zhao Li, even in the Underworld.
In her opinion, Zhao Li definitely wouldn't dare betray her, and the only other one who knew about this matter was the K'un-Lun side!
Although the K'un-Lun side had sent Heavenly Maiden Ya, this old acquaintance, to follow Xia Dongqing as an Informant, she couldn't guarantee that old fellow, the Ancient God, didn't want to strike first.
"Incorrect! You are not from K'un-Lun. Very interesting power. Magic tools refined from souls. In the Underworld, this would require enduring the suffering of the Eighteen Levels of Hell. Are you cultivators!?"
Acha's gaze fell upon the piles of white bones at her feet. For someone like Acha, the Underworld King who controls the entire Underworld, making the souls of several Skeleton Demons refined and nurtured with souls collapse was merely a matter of a single gaze.
But among the several white bone skeletons, the power contained within that was different from this World made Acha sense something!
"Chi You! The Lord of War in eastern mythology and legends, that great existence who contended with the Yellow Emperor. Hearing your meaning, his soul is actually inside Xia Dongqing? What an unexpected surprise!"
Constantine looked at Acha with a defiant expression: "Thank you for the intelligence! A human with such a special soul! I think my Boss will be interested!"
Acha stared at Constantine with a cold gaze: "I don't care who your Boss is. Just for that sentence you just said, you probably won't leave here alive today! I will reserve a place for you in the Eighteen Levels of Hell. Believe me, you will greatly enjoy life in the Underworld!"
For Acha, throughout the long years, in the cold, dark Underworld, only her brother could give her a trace of warmth. She wouldn't allow anyone to harm her brother! Not even the Ancient Gods. She already lost him once, and she absolutely wouldn't allow this to happen a second time! "Sorry!"
Constantine shrugged his shoulders. Staring at Acha before him, he said:
"Beauty, are you trying to keep me here for the night? Unfortunately, it's clear I'm not an easy man!"
Faster than Constantine's verbal attack was the lit cigarette he flicked out and the Nine Children Ghost Mother Sword that shot out from his palm! Inside Constantine's unassuming cigarette was hidden the Dragon's Breath he had prepared. This kind of flame could completely incinerate Demons, Devils, and Malevolent Spirits below the intermediate level, along with their physical bodies and souls!
As the cigarette in his hand was flicked towards Acha, the breaking cigarette, the moment it touched the flame, directly expanded into a huge ball of flame over ten meters in diameter, roaring as it covered Acha.
Beneath the flames comparable to a Giant Dragon's Breath Attack, nine black figures were hidden, like Assassins moving in the darkness, or like fish swimming beneath the Sea Surface, quickly and stealthily stabbing towards Acha.
And Harley Quinn beside him, when Constantine took action, the hand that reached into her bag of tricks also came out. She didn't want to waste another word on Acha before her.
She flung out the hand she withdrew, and a palm-sized pitch black hand grenade directly smashed towards Acha.
