After many years, Morren has finally regained his freedom.

Not only that, he has also reclaimed the throne of the Netherworld King Temple. With Rob III having died at the hands of Hades and Xiao Zheng, he can be said to have reaped the benefits, directly becoming the overlord of Europe.

Just after Morren announced his takeover of the Netherworld King Temple, Catherine also finally received the news.

When she saw the document laid out in front of her, she almost thought her subordinates were playing a joke on her. After all, she knew very well how powerful Hades was. She could hardly believe that anyone could defeat Hades.

However, it wasn’t until Morren’s declaration spread throughout Europe that Catherine finally faced the reality.

Her body went cold, and cold sweat continuously broke out on her forehead.

Catherine could easily imagine how furious Xiao Zheng would be upon learning of this: "The sky has changed! This time, the sky is truly changing! How could Hades fail? This is simply bewildering!"

"And Morren is the previous generation’s Netherworld King, how did he come back to life?"

"Damn it! Why do major events like this always happen in my jurisdiction?"

Catherine was almost driven mad.

Even the huge wooden desk in front of her was smashed to pieces by one punch.

But after venting, Catherine finally calmed down.

She immediately picked up her phone, ready to report the matter to Long Qie.

Catherine didn’t intend to hide this matter, in fact, she couldn’t even if she tried. Within a day, the news of Morren’s takeover of the Netherworld King Temple would spread worldwide.

By then, Xiao Zheng would inevitably learn about it.

The call was quickly connected.

Long Qie had just started work, savoring a cup of coffee: "Catherine? Why are you calling me so early today? Aren’t you usually still asleep at this time?"

Under normal circumstances, Catherine would have quarreled with him.

However, with such a major event happening, Catherine was in no mood to argue: "Cut the crap, something terrible has happened! The previous generation Netherworld King has mysteriously resurrected, and even Hades has been defeated by him, now missing and with unknown life or death!"

Smash!

Just as she finished her words, the sound of something shattering came through the phone.

After an unknown length of time, Long Qie finally regained his composure: "What did you just say? Hades is now missing and with unknown life or death? And it’s because of the previous generation Netherworld King?"

"Today isn’t April Fool’s Day, is it? You don’t need to play such a big prank on me, do you?"

Hearing this, Catherine replied in a solemn voice, "When I learned of this news, my first reaction was the same as yours. But this news is indeed true! In at most a day’s time, it will spread to Huaxia!"

"In short, the sky over Europe has changed. I’m worried that something will happen with Xiao Zheng, considering his relationship with Hades, which we both know quite well."

Hearing her words, Long Qie finally acknowledged the reality.

After a moment of silence, Long Qie spoke up: "Alright, I understand. I will personally inform Mr. Xiao about this, but whether I can stop him, I honestly cannot guarantee."

"You can’t stop him. He will definitely come to Europe to avenge Hades," Catherine said, "This matter is beyond our control, let him decide for himself."

Long Qie nodded, then hung up the phone.

Looking at the phone on the table, he suddenly felt a wave of annoyance. He had thought that after putting the Demon affairs aside temporarily, he could enjoy a period of relaxation. But little did he expect that such a major event would occur in Europe after just a few days.

Long Qie now felt like dying.

Sighing, he dialed Xiao Zheng’s number.

Xiao Zheng was at the office, bored, playing a game of Minesweeper: "Long Qie? Why are you calling me so early in the morning? Didn’t we just meet yesterday? Has something happened again?"

"Something has indeed happened, and it’s a major event," Long Qie said in a serious tone, "The sky is falling; Hades suffered a tragic defeat at the hands of the previous generation Netherworld King and is now missing..."

He slowly recounted the information Catherine had given him to Xiao Zheng.

During this process, Long Qie behaved very cautiously, seemingly afraid of angering Xiao Zheng.

In fact, his caution was unnecessary.

Despite his anger over Hades’ affair, Xiao Zheng didn’t vent it on others.

He suppressed the fury in his heart and coldly asked, "What you just said, is it all true? I don’t want anyone joking with me about this."

Hearing this, Long Qie gave a bitter smile, then replied, "Don’t you know what kind of person I am by now? Even if I had a hundred lives, I wouldn’t dare joke about such a major event."

"In short, the situation is severe, and there’s a high chance Hades might already be dead, so prepare yourself emotionally."

This statement was a harsh reality that he wanted Xiao Zheng to face, despite knowing the chances were nearly zero.

As expected.

Long Qie’s words barely concluded before Xiao Zheng firmly declared, "Hades is definitely not dead; she’s still alive! Even if the previous generation Netherworld King resurrected, she would never die!"

Hearing this, Long Qie sighed and was momentarily at a loss for words.

In his silent pause, Xiao Zheng spoke again: "I already know about this matter. Help me find the earliest flight today; I’ll head to Europe immediately."

As Long Qie was about to agree, Xiao Zheng suddenly changed his mind: "Let’s change it to tomorrow. With such a major event, I need to explain things to Ruobing and others before I leave."

Although Xiao Zheng was furious about it, he didn’t lose his rationality.

He knew very well that if the previous generation Netherworld King truly possessed the power to defeat Hades, heading to Europe would likely be a journey of almost certain death. Therefore, he intended to inform Leng Ruobing before departing, allowing her to be mentally prepared.

No matter what, Xiao Zheng was determined to go to Europe to avenge Hades.

Even if the outcome was destined to be death, he would never regret it!

"I understand. I’ll prepare that for you right away."

Long Qie nodded in agreement, then hung up the phone.

Xiao Zheng put down his phone, then expressionlessly walked out of his office...
