Chapitre 226: Chapter 172: Netherworld, The Ten Halls of Yama_2

"To return to the Prime Star, one must pass through the Path of the Netherworld, which lies within the bounds of the Netherworld. To see the Emperor, there is still some distance to travel before reaching His Majesty's temporary palace, where he has already prepared a banquet, presumably awaiting the Prime Star's arrival,"

the Underworld Messenger spoke.

"I see, then I must ask the Messenger to hasten our journey, lest we keep the Emperor waiting,"

Yibai said.

"Of course, of course!"

The Underworld Messenger hastily nodded and led Yibai to quicken their pace.

...

They traversed the dim and desolate dirt roads.

Unwittingly, they arrived at a majestic city gate.

Yibai lifted his head from atop his horse and saw an iron plaque hanging over the gate with three golden characters that read 'Netherworld'.

"Passing through here is considered entering the Netherworld,"

explained another Underworld Messenger.

Yibai simply nodded, looking around the area.
