Chapter 1937: Hades’ Domineering Presence
As the whole world began searching for Xiao Zheng’s whereabouts, he was resting in the massage bathtub of a six-star hotel.
It was as if the storm outside had nothing to do with him, and he was completely on a vacation.
If Xiao Zheng’s current posture was caught by the eyes of the Pope of the Bright Church, perhaps he might get so angry that he could die on the spot.

The sound of water echoed as Xiao Zheng emerged from underwater, resting his head on the edge of the bathtub.
Enjoying the impact of the waves, he felt so comfortable that he wanted to sleep: "I didn’t think the Golden Bone would be so easy to obtain, now outside, it must be completely chaotic, right?"
"Darkness under the lamp, staying in Nodding City after killing Arthur, no one would have imagined."
Thinking of this, Xiao Zheng unconsciously showed a trace of smile.
He chose to stay for two reasons.
The first was to prevent others from getting involved, the second was to stay here to observe the Bright Church’s reaction. After all, this is the first scene of the event, it won’t be long before the Bright Church sends experts to investigate.
As anticipated by Xiao Zheng, shortly after the Pope issued orders, the Criminal Punishment Elder and a sixth-sequence Saint Heir, led a large group to Nodding City.
Their entrance into the city was grand and magnificent.
The Criminal Punishment Elder and the Saint Heir rode ahead on tall horses, dressed in the Church’s divine robes, making their aura extremely sacred. As for the twelve Holy Temple Knights following behind, each wore silver armor, exuding cold, murderous intent.
When they arrived at the temple located in the center of Nodding City, Xiao Zheng happened to be standing by the room’s large floor-to-ceiling window, observing them from afar.
In front of the crowd, the Saint Heir suddenly had an extremely strange feeling, glancing around.
His action caught the attention of the nearby Criminal Punishment Elder: "Saint Heir, did you discover something?"
Upon hearing the words, the Saint Heir shook his head and said: "Didn’t discover anything, just suddenly felt very strange, as if someone is secretly watching us. Anyway, better be cautious."
"You should’ve been too tense, relax, we’re here only to investigate what deal Arthur and the Evil God made, shouldn’t be any trouble." The Criminal Punishment Elder comforted, "Alright, we’ve arrived."
After speaking, he dismounted.
The Saint Heir sighed inwardly and followed suit, dismounting and entering the temple.
Throughout the process, Xiao Zheng stood by the floor-to-ceiling window watching clearly.
At the same time, he was a bit surprised, unexpectedly the new Saint Heir’s senses were so sharp. Nearly two hundred meters away, he could feel being watched.
Indeed, the abilities of someone who could become a Saint Heir were remarkable.
Having just read their lip movements, Xiao Zheng already knew their conversation, after knowing they were investigating the transaction, he couldn’t help but laugh: "Arthur is dead, the twelve Holy Temple Knights are dead, even surveillance was destroyed by me, your investigation is destined to be futile."
"Seems the people of the Bright Church are just like this."
"No necessity to stay here any longer."
Thinking this, Xiao Zheng directly checked out and left.
His reason for staying in Nodding City was originally to probe the Bright Church’s activities, now that he has the information, there’s no need to remain.
He checked out the room and discreetly exited the city alone.
Reaching an uninhabited area, he quickly ascended into the air, heading towards the Netherworld King Temple. With his current Supreme Realm cultivation, unless the other party has a higher level, they cannot detect his presence.
After flying for about an hour, Xiao Zheng could already see the shadow of the Netherworld King Temple.
Yet just as he prepared to land, he unexpectedly discovered a number of Bright Church experts arriving at the Netherworld King Temple.
"Didn’t expect the Bright Church people, to find Hades here."
"Seems their determination to kill me is strong."
Xiao Zheng hovered in the clouds, his lips curled into a cold smile.
His gaze remained fixed below, the Bright Church experts seemingly hadn’t met Hades, being blocked by attendants outside the hall, their emotions appeared agitated.
Using his powerful cultivation, Xiao Zheng could roughly grasp what they were saying.
"Netherworld King, stop being stubborn!"
"If you don’t cooperate with our Bright Church operations, beware future calamity upon your Blood Clan!"
A white-robed elder at about Half-step Supreme Realm furiously shouted into the temple.
But as soon as he finished, an overwhelming aura erupted from the temple.
Almost instantly, these Bright Church experts couldn’t withstand the aura’s force, their knees weakened, directly kneeling to the ground. No matter how hard they struggled, they couldn’t stand.
This strong stance caused visible humiliation on the Bright Church experts’ faces.
Meanwhile, Hades finally appeared.
She was dressed in a striking red robe, slowly stepping out of the temple as if overlooking, disdainful of the crowd: "Even if Charles came, he wouldn’t dare speak such words in front of me."
"If you wish to die here, I don’t mind taking action."
The Charles she mentioned was the Pope of the Bright Church.
Feeling the chilling murderous intent emanating from Hades, the Bright Church experts involuntarily shivered. But this also made them realize the reality, after all, this is the Netherworld King Temple, not their Holy Land.
"Please forgive us, Lord Netherworld King."
"We only come to learn the whereabouts of Evil God Xiao Zheng."
The white-robed elder no longer acted arrogant, even his originally straightened back bent before Hades.
Upon hearing, Hades didn’t respond, only coldly said: "I’ll give you three seconds to leave my sight, otherwise, I’ll kill you."
Her tone seemed calm, as if saying such words was as casual as asking if someone had lunch.
The white-robed elder raised his head, anger building inside.
But ultimately, he surrendered, leading the group away angrily.
Soon after these people left, Hades suddenly looked up at a certain spot in the sky: "You’ve already arrived, why not come down and meet me?"
Standing behind her, the attendants were shocked at her words.
Soon they saw a smiling Xiao Zheng slowly descend from the sky!
