CHAPTER 1771: CHAPTER 1790: XIANGHE MANOR

"Draw the bow, shoot the arrow, the arrow enters the void, vanishing without a trace!" That was the result of Yusuf Zuck attempting to pierce the void with the Hell God’s Arrow!

The void wasn’t pierced, the dimension wasn’t cracked, the Divine Arrow simply submerged into the dark void, disappearing without a trace!

He shot three arrows in succession, all aimed at one point, but the result was the same: the void of the boundless hell couldn’t be broken by the Divine Arrow!

Yusuf Zuck shook his head gently and sighed softly. Legend... legend is legend after all, unable to become reality. It’s said that the Hell God’s Arrow could pierce the boundless hell, but how could legends be taken seriously?

He put away the Divine Bow and turned to leave. He was prepared for the possibility that the boundless hell couldn’t be pierced, so he didn’t entirely rely on the Divine Arrow to escape it!

He believed there must be other ways to leave, he just hadn’t discovered them yet.

He would keep searching until he found them.

...

Six months later, at Xianghe Manor!

In the past six months, he wandered aimlessly. Only a few days ago did he suddenly discover a lot of people coming and going in this area, so after some inquiries, he learned of Xianghe Manor, a separate pocket universe. It’s a place where various heroes gather, where people stop for rest or live permanently!

To put it bluntly, it resembled a large market town. When Yusuf Zuck entered, he found many simple houses, crowds that were lively yet a bit desolate, and various establishments like taverns, brothels, and gambling houses, among others.

This is the only mixed residence in the dark boundless hell, also the most prosperous place. Though it’s dirty and chaotic, it’s heavily populated inside!

There’s no administration here, no City Lord or Manor Lord; it’s a natural cave heaven, with free entry and exit.

It was named Xianghe because the original residents hoped for peace and banned killing!

But that was just the initial ideal. Over time, the living conditions deteriorated significantly; there were public killings and fights on the street.

It’s a chaotic place!

Not long after Yusuf Zuck entered the town, he suddenly noticed many people looking at him strangely. As he walked further, he realized that wherever he passed, people retreated, and some ran away in fright, no one dared approach him or converse with him!

Yusuf Zuck’s lips curled slightly, he guessed that the people here knew of his arrival, hence their fearful retreat!

"Hmm? Miscellaneous tendon noodles? It smells so good?" As he passed a street snack stall, the aroma attracted him, but all the diners had fled, leaving only the shop owner hiding behind the door, afraid to show his face!

"Give me a bowl of miscellaneous tendon noodles, why does it smell so good?" Yusuf Zuck boldly sat down and said.

"Please... please wait a moment!" The shop owner hidden inside stammered a reply and began cooking noodles!

At that moment, suddenly, a stream of light approached quickly and landed on the street side!

When Yusuf Zuck looked closely, it was Alejando Newton, the King of Hidden Weapons.

Indeed, it was Alejando Newton, who had come before him voluntarily!

"Alejando Newton greets Lord Jordan Webb; thank you for sparing my life before!" Alejando stood ten meters away from Yusuf Zuck, bowing deeply at ninety degrees, giving three big bows.

Yusuf Zuck glanced at him, thought for a moment, then said, "Come over here to talk!"

"Yes, my lord!" Alejando Newton was perceptive. He knew that since Jordan Webb didn’t kill him before, he likely wouldn’t do so now, which is why he was so bold.

He walked up to Yusuf Zuck but didn’t dare sit; he waited for Yusuf Zuck to inquire.

"Is there no one managing this Xianghe Manor?"

"No one!"

"Are there any experts here surpassing the old beggar and Skye Burch?"

"None!"

"What are you doing here?"

"In response to my lord, I settled here and got married!" Alejando felt a bit embarrassed when mentioning marriage.

"Oh, congratulations." Yusuf Zuck nodded his head.

"My lord, the noodles are here!" At that moment, the shop owner brought out a steaming bowl of miscellaneous tendon noodles, the bowl still steaming hot and fragrant.

But as the shop owner put down the bowl, Yusuf Zuck felt peculiar, as the noodle broth was red!

"What kind of soup is this, why is it red?" Yusuf Zuck said as he picked up the tendon with chopsticks!

Alejando quickly replied, "My lord, this is Human Blood Soup, made with human tendons, beast tendons, extracted tendons, with added human fat and salt, so it tastes good!"

"Pfft~" Yusuf Zuck had already put a mouthful of tendons into his mouth, but after hearing Alejando’s words, he spat it out involuntarily, and his whole being gagged with nausea.

"Quick, get me water, quick!" Yusuf Zuck squatted down, continuously gagging, feeling utterly sick. Human blood, human fat, human tendons, beast tendons? No wonder it smelled so fragrant!

The shop owner, frightened, quickly brought a bowl of clear water and knelt down, repeatedly saying he deserved to die...

Alejando was also dumbfounded, as the miscellaneous tendon noodles were quite delicious, and the snack shop was packed every day, but this Lord Jordan Webb wouldn’t even dare to eat it!

He was speechless; Jordan Webb slaughtered without blinking, yet wouldn’t eat human meat!

Yusuf Zuck rinsed his mouth but still felt nauseated, losing his appetite for food!

"Take it!" He tossed out a bag of grains: "Consider it the meal’s payment." Having said that, he strode off!

Alejando followed swiftly, continuously explaining the various features and entertainment spots of Xianghe Manor to Yusuf Zuck.

"Where is Aruro Burch?"

"I don’t know." Alejando shook his head, "She has been missing for a long time."

"Oh, have you heard any rumors about secret exits from the boundless hell, or do you know where they might be?" Yusuf Zuck asked suddenly.

"I have heard of a secret passage leading directly to the divine realm. Such rumors are not baseless, but it’s not in the central region. It is in the four polar regions. The reason it’s called boundless is because walking in any direction won’t find an end. However, it’s said that it’s dangerous outside, and no one dares to venture too far!"

"What kind of dangers are there?" Yusuf Zuck asked curiously.

"At the very least, there are demons, powerful evil spirits, or strong beings in hell, endless disastrous storms, and there’s also an evil curse!"

"A curse?" Yusuf Zuck was puzzled.

"Yes, a curse. Those who venture out, even if they don’t die on the road, succumb to illness and terror after returning. Their death is terribly miserable and horrifying before dying."

"In short, we people in the central region are outsiders, exiled or mistakenly entered divine realm citizens or descendants, while the outside four polar regions are the native inhabitants of the boundless hell, and it seems they do not allow our crossing."

"What dangers lie outside, we do not know. What strong beings exist, we do not know. What unknown places there are, we do not know. For even one as strong as the old beggar dares not venture deep into the polar regions!"

"Moreover, it is extremely vast out there, and over the years, it’s not that no one has ventured far, but they found nothing. On the contrary, they died outside; even those who barely returned were later cursed to death!"

"Oh, by the way, there was one who didn’t die, the only one in this boundless hell, but he has gone insane, his cultivation dissolved to nothing, and now he is barely clinging to life!"
