"What are you busy with?" Yan Jue naturally wouldn't tell Qin Yu.
"If you have the ability, go find her yourself. Throwing a tantrum here is useless."
Qin Yu came here precisely because he didn't know where the Supreme Commander was.
"Then tell me where she is. Otherwise, I'm not leaving."
"I don't know."
"I think you're doing this on purpose."
Yan Jue really had no interest in wasting words with Qin Yu.
"Whether you leave or not is up to you. Suit yourself."
With that, he went to his bedroom, grabbed a towel, and went to take a shower.
Qin Yu was furious. He waited there until nightfall. During this time, no one bothered him or restrained his actions.
Lu Xing walked over, and Qin Yu rushed to ask him, "Where is the Supreme Commander? Is she willing to see me?"
Lu Xing was speechless.
"As a minor character like me, how could I possibly know the Supreme Commander's whereabouts?"
Upon hearing this, Qin Yu's face showed displeasure.
"Then why did you come here?"
His tone implied that he was the steward of the Underworld, and he could come and go as he pleased. It was not Qin Yu's place, an unwelcome guest, to dictate.
What were the Ten Yama Kings to him? If it weren't for the master's orders, Lu Xing wouldn't have bothered with him.
Even Yama Lords could be thrown into reincarnation by them. What was a mere King of Qin?
Lu Xing suppressed his temper and said indifferently, "Steward Yan has arranged a room for you at the hotel next to the Underworld for your rest. You can stay in the Underworld for as long as you wish. You're just a defeated opponent, not worthy of our vigilance."
These words showed utter disregard for Qin Yu.
"Hmph! You're truly arrogant!"
Lu Xing offered a professional, faint smile.
"King Qin flatters me. Please."
Qin Yu was quite angered, but he had waited for so long and was indeed exhausted.
Furthermore, his Imperial Dragon Hall had been destroyed by Yan Jue. He had to seek an explanation for this matter and could not return empty-handed.
Even if he had to wait a little longer, he would patiently wait until the Supreme Commander saw him.
He would wait like the farmer waiting for a rabbit, certain he would eventually meet her.
The hotel next to the Underworld was a seven-star hotel owned by the Underworld.
Upon entering the grand doors, the first thing that met the eye was a massive fountain landscape in the lobby, complementing the enormous crystal chandeliers above, creating an atmosphere of extreme luxury.
From the decoration to the furnishings, everything was exceptionally luxurious. The opulence was no less than that of the Imperial Dragon Hall.
For a moment, Qin Yu was stunned.
Elegant and well-trained staff in tasteful uniforms stepped forward to guide them.
"Steward Lu, as per your instructions, here is the room card for our hotel's highest-class presidential suite."
Qin Yu had seen beautiful women before, but he had never seen a staff member with such elegance and beauty. He couldn't help but steal a few glances.
He wondered how the Underworld managed to train them so well.
"Cough, cough..."
Lu Xing coughed twice.
"King Qin, shall we go?"
Under the guidance of the service staff, they entered the elevator together.
The figures on the elevator poster immediately caught Qin Yu's eye.
"Is that... Chu Chen?"
Qin Yu could hardly believe that the man in the sequined top, tight leather pants, and leather boots could be the suave and dashing King Chu, Chu Chen.
"The Burning Hall has fallen, and Chu Chen was captured. How did he end up like this? Is this some new form of torture?"
To have tortured the suave Chu Chen into such a state!
Lu Xing and the female attendant's expressions stiffened to varying degrees.
They found it both amusing and pitiable.
"King Qin, that is not any form of torture," Lu Xing explained.
"If it's not torture, then how did Chu Chen end up like this?"
...
"Chu Chen is now an A-list superstar in the Underworld, at the forefront of fashion trends, and highly popular and beloved by his fans."
"What are fans?"
"That... is a group of people who admire and like Chu Chen."
Qin Yu seemed to understand but was still very confused.
"With this ghastly appearance, he can be admired and liked?"
...
Ignorant, pitiable.
Lu Xing even began to pity the provincial Ten Yama Kings, who lived such boring lives while the outside world was so vibrant.
Even like this, they still refused to build roads and develop, deserving of their ignorance.
"King Qin is joking. Chu Chen is extremely popular right now. Wherever he goes, he causes a stir among his fans, requiring security to maintain order for his movements."
"Can I see him then?"
"Of course, you can. However, Chu Chen's schedule is very full recently. We'll need to arrange a time to see him."
Hearing this, Qin Yu immediately became displeased.
"Before, I could see him without all this trouble. Now that we're in the Underworld, there are so many excuses to block me. Is there something you're hiding?"
Lu Xing shook his head helplessly.
"It seems we'll have to wait until Chu Chen is free to see you and explain things in person," Lu Xing said.
He really didn't want to waste his breath on the ignorant Qin Yu.
For three days, besides resting, Qin Yu went to the Underworld, clamoring to see the Supreme Commander.
No matter how much he fussed, Yan Jue put on his headphones, listened to music, and ignored him.
Three days later, Qin Yu, returning disappointed, opened the door to the presidential suite and saw a man in leather clothes and pants.
It was the immensely popular, reigning superstar, Chu Chen.
Chu Chen was lounging with his legs crossed, his leather shoes gleaming. He lazily held a wine glass and drank red wine, exuding an air of languid nobility at first glance.
Qin Yu rubbed his eyes in disbelief.
"Chu Chen, it's really you!"
"They've gone too far, to have tortured you into this state."
They were brothers, and seeing Chu Chen's "miserable state," Qin Yu's heart ached.
Chu Chen's lips curved upwards, and he looked at Qin Yu with a pitying gaze.
"Don't overthink it. I'm living better now than ever before."
Qin Yu was shocked and wondered if he had misheard.
Seeing his expression, Chu Chen said calmly, "You heard correctly. I am now the hottest superstar in the Underworld. Countless women succumb to my charm and go crazy for me. I have never felt so great."
Listening to Chu Chen's abnormal words, Qin Yu's expression gradually became serious.
"Brother, have you lost your mind? We are the supreme rulers of our own territories, the noble Ten Yama Kings. The Burning Hall has fallen, how can you give up on yourself and degenerate like this!"
There was a time when Chu Chen also resisted all of this.
But as he understood the Underworld better and became its superstar, he saw things he had never seen or imagined before. Sudan Novel Network.
And he became convinced that this was the path they should take in the future.
This was also why he had taken time out of his busy schedule to see Qin Yu.
He said to Qin Yu with a serious expression.
"Qin Yu, what do you think of the Underworld today?"
The prosperity of the Underworld was an undeniable fact; even a hotel could rival a palace.
Despite this, Qin Yu still said coldly, "No matter how good it is, it can't compare to the freedom we have ruling our own territories."
