Chapter 1457: Netherworld God and His Little Egg Wife (Part 1)

The question of whether the Netherworld God or the Human World God is the elder brother or sister has always been a subject of controversy.

According to the Netherworld God himself, he is at least a few thousand years older than the Human World God.

When the Netherworld God said this, the Human World God Bo Bo strongly protested.

"Silly Mingri, you have to count the age of when you were an egg. When I found you, you were a baby that couldn’t even cry!" Realm God Bo Bo huffed. Yes, she was the one who found Mingri.

However, to be precise, it was Mingri and Bo Bo’s mutual Mother Goddess, the Four Directions Divine Sovereign, who found Mingri. At that time, Bo Bo, who was still an egg, was conveniently by the Four Directions Divine Sovereign’s side.

However, there was one thing Bo Bo said that was true; at that time, Mingri was indeed a baby who couldn’t cry.

It’s well known in the Divine World that before becoming the Divine Sovereign, the Four Directions Divine Sovereign was the most formidable general under Emperor Huo Yan.

Though she was a woman, in the Divine World, she was a renowned warrior god.

There’s a saying in the Divine World: Better to face Emperor Huo Yan’s fire, than to provoke the anger of the Four Directions Divine Sovereign.

This is because any battle the Four Directions Divine Sovereign participated in would annihilate even the strongest opponent.

But the Four Directions Divine Sovereign was also a very compassionate god; after she became the Divine Sovereign, she adopted many orphans from the Human World and the Divine World.

Bo Bo and Mingri were among them.

However, to be precise, Bo Bo was not considered an orphan. On a certain day, the Four Directions Divine Sovereign accidentally broke an ancient Magic Array, and out popped a Magic Egg.

Seeing it lonely and helpless, the Four Directions Divine Sovereign decided to keep it by her side.

But unlike regular eggs, which hatch within a few or ten months, Bo Bo was different.

From the moment she emerged from the Magic Array, she started learning to speak and "bounce," but never learned how to break out of her shell.

Moreover, she had immense strength, loved crying, and constantly caused trouble. Helplessly, the Four Directions Divine Sovereign had to bring Bo Bo along regardless of where she went.

Even when going to battle.

That’s right, upon hearing that the worst uprising in history had occurred in the Netherworld, the Four Directions Divine Sovereign took Bo Bo Egg to suppress the rebellion.

Regrettably, when the Four Directions Divine Sovereign arrived, the Netherworld was already a sea of blood.

The Netherworld God was slain, and even his pregnant wife was unfortunate enough to meet with disaster.

Enraged, the Four Directions Divine Sovereign slaughtered and defeated the Netherworld’s rebel forces, and sent the rebellion’s leader into the Nine-layered Netherworld, ensuring they could never reincarnate.

As the Four Directions Divine Sovereign was erecting a monument for the Netherworld God couple, Bo Bo Egg suddenly bounced in front of the Netherworld God’s wife.

"Mother Goddess, Mother Goddess, her belly is moving!" Bo Bo Egg curiously pointed at the Netherworld God’s wife’s belly.

Only then did the Four Directions Divine Sovereign notice, from the belly of the pregnant wife of the Netherworld God, came faint fetal movements.

Could it be that the child inside was still alive?

With the help of the Four Directions Divine Sovereign, a newborn was brought out from the belly of the deceased wife of the Netherworld God.

It was a very frail infant; lacking air and nutrients, its body was much smaller than typical infants, and its skin had turned a bluish-purple.

The baby was so weak that it couldn’t even muster a cry, looking as though it might perish any moment.

The Four Directions Divine Sovereign urgently held the infant upside down, patting it forcefully, but the baby didn’t respond.

A pity... this child might not be saved.

The Four Directions Divine Sovereign shook her head silently.

"Mother Goddess, why does it look so ugly?" The naive Bo Bo didn’t understand the pathetic situation of the infant.

"This is the ugliest baby Bo Bo has ever seen." It bounced around, full of disdain. "Bo Bo, you shouldn’t say things like that; this baby probably won’t..." The Four Directions Divine Sovereign said with regret.

Wah wah —

Suddenly, a loud cry erupted from the throat of the infant who had stopped breathing.

"See, Mother Goddess, Mother Goddess, it cried because of its own ugliness." Bo Bo was immediately amused.

The Four Directions Divine Sovereign was bewildered, looking at the deeply aggrieved crying baby, then glancing at the endlessly amused Bo Bo, making a rather helpless expression.

Just like that, the Four Directions Divine Sovereign brought the Netherworld God’s lone bloodline back to the Divine World, named him Mingri, and began nurturing him, hoping that one day he could succeed the position of the Netherworld God.

Gradually, the boy who Bo Bo scorned as "ugly enough to cry" grew up day by day.

After three years, little Mingri transformed rapidly at an astonishing pace, both his appearance and talent becoming increasingly extraordinary.

In contrast, Bo Bo, growing up alongside Mingri, remained unchanged for years, still an egg.

Later on, the Four Directions Divine Sovereign received an order from Emperor Huo Yan, requiring her to go to the Divine World to subdue several rebellious gods. After some consideration, unable to determine how long this suppression would take, in order for both Mingri and Bo Bo to grow more effectively, she decided to leave them both in the Four Directions World.

Before leaving, the Four Directions Divine Sovereign repeatedly urged Bo Bo to take good care of her junior brother Mingri.

Bo Bo agreed wholeheartedly.

At that time Bo Bo’s egg age was ten, while Mingri was five.

However, the development that followed was entirely beyond the expectations of the Four Directions Divine Sovereign.

Mingri was a very diligent and hardworking boy; after training every day, he would diligently prepare meals.

Once the meals were prepared, Bo Bo, who’s spent the day playing outside and was famished, would rush in like the wind and devour Mingri’s meals completely.

Mingri would quietly clean up the leftovers and begin preparing the meals again.

Once Mingri finished eating and prepared lukewarm water for a relaxing bath to wash away fatigue.

Bo Bo, having played wildly all day with her egg shell covered in mud, would rush in like the wind, enjoy a comfortable bath, leaving behind a bucket of muddy water.

Mingri would silently empty the bathwater and boil another bucket.

The one thing Mingri didn’t have to do was wash clothes for Bo Bo, mainly because she was an egg and didn’t need clothes.

Three years later, when the Four Directions Divine Sovereign returned to the Four Directions World after quelling the rebellion, she suddenly discovered that her little disciple Mingri had turned into a versatile little cook, skilled in cooking, boiling water, and cleaning, mastering everything.

And so, back and forth, Bo Bo and Mingri spent over a dozen springs and autumns together.

Mingri had grown into a handsome young man that made goddesses in the Divine World scream, while Bo Bo remained an egg.

Mingri’s magical and combat energy talents were astounding, having long become the famous young genius in the Divine World.

Whereas Bo Bo, with abysmal talent in magic combat energy, quickly became a notorious weak egg failure in the Divine World.

These things, Bo Bo wasn’t aware of at a young age; as she grew a little older, she found herself frequently bullied and everyone called her "the weakest egg."
