Chapter 200: Ten Years Of Pain

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation  Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

When Yuchi first met Medusa, he had been at the peak of his lunacy, in a sense.

At that time, he had not realized it, but fishing in the Netherworld Sea had its effects.

Those ancient beings were dead spirits, and these dead spirits had a powerful ability to corrode and contaminate the souls of living people.

Yuchi, who had just arrived at the Netherworld Sea prison, had not been strong at all, and his soul was even weaker. Therefore, he lost the ability to control his emotions due to the contamination of these ancient beings.

From time to time, a malicious desire to fight and kill would appear in his heart, which made him want to kill others, and at times himself. This led to him trying his best to find satisfaction in battle, which gave birth to his twisted personality.

Those ten years had shaped his current personality.

Right now, Yuchi’s strength had reached an astonishing level, but the residual effects from that experience still existed.

It would probably take him a long time to recover from this.

Even now, he exhibited an extreme desire for battle, and found great satisfaction in it.

The first time Yuchi met Medusa, he did not have high expectations.

He had been constantly tormented by the contamination of the ancient beings.

He wanted to die.

That was the first time Medusa had met him. At the same time, she had shown him the horrors of the Dao realm.

At that time, Medusa had not asked Yuchi to resurrect her. She simply spared him to allow him to increase his strength so that he could challenge her one day.

After their first true meeting, Yuchi worked really hard. He wanted to kill Medusa, or be killed by Medusa.

This way, he could be free from this damned world, free from the obsession and torture of endless battles.

In the end, he fell deeper and deeper.

When they met for the second time, Yuchi’s strength had already reached the Dao realm, and he had gained a semblance of control over his violent tendencies.

He was not as crazy as the first time he met Medusa, and even let her go. It was then that Medusa broached the topic of resurrection to Yuchi.

After thinking about it, Yuchi chose to agree.

Yuchi’s attitude toward Medusa changed then.

He wanted to resurrect Medusa, then fight her fair and square, and then bring her to her knees. In a sense, he was still influenced by his contaminated state of mind.

After his strength increased further, Yuchi also revisited the matter between him and Medusa.

This time, he did not think from his own point of view. Instead, he thought from Medusa’s point of view.

Why had Medusa not killed him when they first met?

Was it just because she cherished his talent?

That was impossible.

How could an ancient empress like Medusa be so soft-hearted?

Furthermore, Yuchi had exterminated all of Medusa’s subordinates.

As such, the answer was simple.

Medusa wanted to be resurrected.

She had wanted to seize every opportunity to be resurrected and stand on the stage of this world again.

What she, Medusa, wanted was this world.

She wanted to live again and show the current world what it was like back then.

As for Yuchi, he had been thinking a lot during the years he had spent in Hanjiang.

Although he still sounded a little crazy now, he was already much better than before.

He had already slowly crawled out of the abyss.

Thinking about it, this was a rather terrifying thing.

If he had not gone to the Vast Sea, if he had not gone to the Hanjiang, if he had not sorted out his thoughts, he would have been completely immersed in the battle and become a mad demon; a mad demon without any logical thinking.

Right now, he even wanted to experience true love.

This was something that he had not thought about during the ten years hadspent in the Netherworld Sea.

Medusa was an extremely enchanting woman. When she saw Yu Shengyun, who was beside Yuchi, she was a little surprised. After thinking for some time, she did not directly answer Yuchi’s question. Instead, she changed the topic and said, “You’ve finally walked out of your nightmare?”

“It seems that my evaluation of you back then was correct. In fact, the height that you’ve reached now is even more terrifying than what I had expected.”

“I thought that it would be another thousand years before I saw you again. I didn’t expect that you would become such a terrifying figure in just a few years.”

“So, when you first met me, you could already see that my mind had been contaminated?”

Medusa calmly nodded.

While Yu Shengyun was filled with hostility, her face was as calm as the surface of the Netherworld Sea and strangely beautiful.

“Of course I could see it. If you had my strength back then, would you not be able to see the sorrow of a young man?”

“I’m sure you would be able to as well. However, in that situation, I couldn’t give you any help at all. In order to survive, in order to stand on this world again, I pushed myself in front of you and became your enemy.”

“Although I don’t know why you’re so terrifying right now, and whether or not I helped you, I still want to congratulate you. Right now, you’re graduallygaining control over the violent aura in your body. You’re slowly coming out of your nightmare.”

“I know it wasn’t easy.”

“But it’s clear that you’re on the path to success.”

“Congratulations.”

“Congratulations from the bottom of my heart. You’re even more outstanding than I first thought.”

Yuchi looked at Medusa’s admiring expression and unhurriedly said, “As the master of the Netherworld Sea, you sure have a lot to say. Is it because you really feel that I have the ability to resurrect you, so you’re starting to get antsy?”

Medusa walked up and gently cupped Yuchi’s face. Her charming eyes stared into his.

“Of course I’m nervous. It’s been many years since I’ve personally experienced the beauty of this world.”

“What are you still waiting for?”

“Are you waiting for me to kneel down and call you husband?”

“Or are you waiting for me to beg for mercy so that you can be a little gentler to me?”
