Chapter 152 - Agreement Reached

Chapter 152 Agreement ReachedThe Lingxiao Palace was shrouded by the ring. Did the man of sacrifice there? Wuyou rushed out of the encirclement and tried to have a look. But how could Emperor Jun spare the woman? The celestial soldiers rushed up, but was blocked by Hun Kun.

Wuyou flew to the Lingxiao Palace, and Little Lingchong ran into her arms. The ring stopped at the Lingxiao Palace. Wuyou wanted to know who was the man of sacrifice. The ring rushed into the palace, and Wuyou followed the ring to the eastern palace. Unexpectedly, Hun Kun came down from above. With a bang, the Lingxiao Palace collapsed. Under great pressure, sand flowed in clouds. The palace was snapped in half. Little palace maidservants fled in all directions. Jiu Ying shrank into herself. The ring suspended around the little palace maidservants. Wuyou came closer quietly. She came to the Ninth-level Heaven just for looking for the man of sacrifice, so she would not be discovered by Emperor Jun. Wuyou pinched a little palace maid’s neck. The maid struggled to get free, but went to faint for fear because of Wuyou’s palm. Little Lingchong goggled and thought the maid was really too coward to stand the Master’s intimidation.

The ring fell into Wuyou’s hand, and Wuyou picked up the person and flew to the backyard. Hun Kun had been imprisoned by Emperor Jun for tens of thousands of years, so Hun Kun’s Mysterious Clear Qi was not so powerful. After several rounds, Hun Kun was about to be defeated. Emperor Jun slapped him successively. Hun Kun was forced to hide in the ruins, into the debris. Emperor Jun gathered spirit power and lifted up the Lingxiao Palace to force Hun Kun to appear. Jiu Ying just picked up herself from the ground, but went faint by the flying rubble. The debris covered the woman’s body soon. However, Emperor Jun totally ignored the woman, and threw out a palm to Hun Kun. Hun Kun set spiritual net to protect his whole body.

The little palace maids was waken up by the Spirit Power, and shrank her neck when seeing the person clearly in front. The person burned the divine hall last time, even the Emperor was not her opponent.

“Divine Lady… please spare my life.” The little palace maid knelt on the ground, begging the Divine Lady for mercy. Wuyou opened the ring to restore the maid’s memory quickly. Unexpectedly, the ring was dim. Wuyou injected more Spirit Power. Suddenly, the ring flew out. Wuyou followed it. The little palace maid got confused, wondering what the Divine Lady bothered herself for. Little Lingchong followed its Master. The ring went to the Lingxiao Palace again. Wuyou knew very well that no one could expect that the man of sacrifice in the Ninth-level Heaven would be the person around Emperor Jun— the Empress. It was Shenzong who had set the trap, so it could tell how much Shenzong hated Emperor Jun. The Lingxiao Palace had been ruined when they got there. On the clouds, Emperor Jun cast sorcery to stifle Hun Kun and confronted with Hun Kun’s attacks easily. Jiu Ying knelt on the ground with one knee in the debris. She was so scared that she hid behind Hun Kun, her eyes full of tears, because her husband, Emperor Jun, did not care about her life at all. In Emperor Jun’s eyes, women were like clothes. Hun Kun felt a pity for the poor woman. The ring fell into Jiu Ying’s body. Spirit Power spread out. Jiu Ying felt a dreadful headache. Surging Spirit Power opened her memory. Jiu Ying seemed to have a dream.

Emperor Jun slapped again to roar the entire Lingxiao Palace. Seeing the worsening situation, Hun Kun flew out of the ruins. Wuyou picked up the person out of the Lingxiao Palace. Emperor Jun was so faithless and heartless that he completely ignored his wife. This vicious monster continued to badger Hun Kun. Hun Kun rushed on the clouds and condensed Mysterious Clear Qi. Emperor Jun confronted arrogantly. The two stood on the sea of clouds and set formation. Hun Kun slapped out, but was intercepted by Emperor Jun. The Mysterious Clear Qi lit the whole sky up. Surging Spirit Power flooded to the Ninth-level Heaven, turning everywhere it went into dust. Emperor Jun’s Ninth-level Heaven was destroyed a lot. Hun Kun had tried his best and thought that it would do harm to him if the things dragged on, so he tried to take a way out. Emperor Jun dodged the blast wave, and Hun Kun took the chance to turn into a smoke and flew out of the Ninth-level Heaven.

When it was safe, Wuyou put down the woman. Jiu Ying was grateful to Wuyou. Thinking about Emperor Jun’s ruthlessness, Jiu Ying’s heart hurt and found that the man never cared about her in his heart. The man did not care about her life at all. If Jiang Wuyou had not saved her, perhaps she would have been unable to survive from the calamity.

Her memory was opened. Even if she was just a pawn, she was unwilling to betray her husband. Nothing was more lamentable than a dead heart. It was time to wake up to reality. Rather than being manipulated, she would like to manipulate herself. As Jiang Wuyou wanted Emperor Jun’s life, Jiu Ying wanted her own dignity. Although it was the established fact that Jiu Ying was a pawn, she wanted to be a strong pawn that could make her Master think twice before taking action. After straightening out what she wanted, Jiu Ying felt her hear became clear and believed that helping Jiang Wuyou was helping herself. Wuyou was rather confident about the woman. Once a woman became heartless, she could belittle any man. Women was born to be creatures of emotions and bewildered by love through the whole life, willing to devote themselves to their love like flying moths darting into the fire. When they came to realize the truth one day, they would become unbelievably powerful. Jiu Ying was one of them. She was hurt by a man’s ignorance, and would be deserted like a nonentity. But now, Jiang Wuyou gave her a promise that the Ninth-level Heaven would be hers, Jiu Ying’s. Although Jiu Ying was not in power, she was still the Empress of the Ninth-level Heaven and enjoyed her own connections. Jiang Wuyou wanted the Emperor Jun’s head, and Jiu Ying wanted Emperor Jun’s authority. Finally, the two women reached the agreement.

Wuyou went out of the Ninth-level Heaven. On the clouds, Hun Kun had been waiting for her. Little Lingchong had never seen the white-eyed people before, so it was so scared to hide in the sleeve and regarded Hun Kun as a monster. Wuyou’s last stop was the Mount Da Huang. How could Chidi be omitted in the Three Leagues? Wuyou hated Chidi most, because all of the things were caused by him, and he could not get away with the death of Wuyou’s grandfather, and the destruction of the Teal Hill. They passed the desolate land and looked at the entrance of the Devil Realm hanging over a ghastly gloominess. Hun Kun was quite familiar with this place.

“It is still here…” Hun Kun found the little entrance to the devil city.

“Have you been here before?” It seemed that Hun Kun came there so frequently that he could find such a hidden place.

“I came here when I was young…” Hun Kun pressed the mechanism, and Wuyou followed into the city gate. The devil city fixed its entrance and exit on the ground while its city underground. Different from the Teal Hill underground city, there was stars and the moons of the Devil Realm. Although they were underground, they did not feel any uncomfortable. Wuyou followed Hun Kun closely.

The lurid sunset put a red light on the sky. Flocks of blood bats filled the sky thickly. Those blood bats came out for food and rushed out of the Mount Da Huang. Flesh blood was needed to become a devil. Just like Chidi, souls were fostered in the Blood Pool for his resurrection. There was no cooked smoke and fire in the devil city. The traded currency was only flesh human blood. Streets were haunted with hideous faces. Hun Kun led Wuyou into a tavern. The old man must do it on purpose. Wuyou’s stomach twitched the moment she entered it. Flesh blood was served on the table, and the lackeys were busy in carrying a iron cage. Unveil the black curtain, and dreadfully, a human child was in it. However, Hun Kun seemed to get used to it, while Wuyou felt pity for the child and decided to save him out. Little Lingchong crawled out when sensing the smell of blood. Although the blood was not as delicious as the Master’s, Little Lingchong still drooled with envy, and then flew into the blood and began sucking it. The Demonic Spirit, seeing an unknown thing fall into its delicious food, felt unhappy and flipped Little Lingchong away. Meanwhile, the little kid in the iron cage huddled himself up with scare at the sight of the blood on the table. The Demonic Spirit slapped the iron cage open, and then lackeys lifted the little boy up to the front of the tavern’s owner. The owner held the knife to the little boy’s throat. The little boy was overwhelmed with panic and looked closely at Wuyou at the corner, as his eyes darkened from desire to despair. Wuyou could not sit by and see the terrible thing happen. She wanted to rush out to save the little boy, but was stopped by Hun Kun, because it would draw the devil army’s attacks. Reasonable as Hun Kun was, Wuyou still could not do nothing to save the boy from death. At that crucial moment, Little Lingchong rushed out first. The owner chopped at the little insect, and Little Lingchong dived sharply. Then, the owner chopped on his own foot, and blood spurted out. Demonic Spirits ran toward him in a crowd. No one had ever imagined that the owner was a human and he peddled boys for profits. Wuyou took the opportunity to save the little boy.

Thanks to Little Lingchong, the little boy was saved. Adults always calculated their gain and loss, but forgot their nature. Little Lingchong was a great insect. Hun Kun took the shortcut to enter the palace. The ring’s Spiritual Qi was too weak to be spotted. Wuyou remained calm, because she would rather get to know Chidi completely. Xiao Qi betrayed the Mount Da Huang, so he was a pest in the Alliance. Chidi would certainly wipe him out. Although it seemed to be a small matter, it was of great significance, because it affects the Mount Da Huang’s dignity.

The main hall was full of the leaders of the devil army. Although Chidi’s Spirit Power increased after passing tribulation, he appeared inferior by comparison to the Heavenly Book. He had thought that since he became the Devil God, he would not be controlled by others. But out of his expectation, he was still under the ascendancy. It was impossible to get the benefit from the deceitful Heaven Realm. Chidi suffered a lot mentally. In order to break the deadlock, Chidi decided to vent his anger from Xiao Qi as a warning to others.

The atmosphere in the main hall was strained. The devil army’s leaders and Chidi divided on points. They blamed the Emperor Di had killed their brothers. In the battle against Kunlun, Chidi had suffered heavy casualties. And the devil army was in a dilemma: if they retreated from the human society, Xu Linghe would lead the troops to the north very soon, and at that moment, the human society would be hard to control. And consequently, the blood source which the devil army relied on would be cut off. To become stronger, the devil soldiers had to suck blood. So in other words, Chidi not only helped Di Qing, but also helped himself.

“Your Majesty, you are weak in action… and encourage the opponent’s arrogance.”

The devil army’s tempers flared, and they found that they got no benefits back as following Chidi. What’s worse, they had to fight everywhere. The devil army suffered heavy losses, so the leader was rather angry. Since the fire tribe was closest to the Fairy Kingdom, Chidi asked Nascent Soul to spearhead the attack to the Fairy Kingdom, so as to cover a retreat for the devil army. Chidi wanted to teach Xiao Qi a lesson. Nascent Soul took the order and hurried to the fire tribe.

Baize’s army was forced to withdraw scores of miles after being driven out of the Teal Hill by Jiang Tian. Yu Xuanji assumed the command in Baize. They had launched several sudden and violent attacks, but were all suppressed by Jiang Tian. As Baize’s leader, Yu Xuanji felt grave responsibility and thought the Teal Hill pushed them too hard. Yu Xuanji moved forward with the main force. She wanted to urge in person. Baize’s soldiers felt boosted at the news of Goddess’ coming, and each of them cheered up. With Yu Xuanji’s order, the main force entered the forest. The scout hurried to send the messages, and then Yan let the soldiers disperse so that they could attack suddenly. Then, soldiers all hid themselves in the fortresses. As long as the Baize’s army came into the siege, they could annihilate the Baize’s army completely. Yu Xuanji wore the armor and held Baize’s wand in her hand. First, Yan sent a group of dark forces to allure the Baize’s army. Eagles howled in the forest, and the prey screamed sadly. Baize’s army kicked the prey with alert. However, his legs were tied by Spirit Power. Then, little soldiers came up to stab knives to them. Next second, the Baize’s soldier turned into smoke. And then, Baize’s army’s awful screams filled the forest. Yu Xuanji rushed there at the sound, and was shocked at the scene— the scout whom she had sent out was peeled off skins and hanged on the branch. How cruel it was! Baize’s soldiers were reluctant to move on at the sight of their dead brother. However, Yu Xuanji would not withdraw. If the scout’s information was true, the Teal Hill’s soldiers exactly hid themselves in the forest. She hoped to break out the encirclement. She would lose herself without doubt and become more sensitive. She was crazy about authority. For Xiao Qi, she was ready to give up everything, including the Authority. She had forgotten her initial intent. Xiao Qi was her weak point. But to her surprise, Xiao Qi betrayed the Mount Da Huang, and Yu Xuanji became Xiao Qi’s abandoned pawn. Xiao Qi went to Hongjun’s side and extended his ambition. Yu Xuanji knew Xiao Qi’s plan well but was still willing to do everything for him. It would be too late for her when she woke up to the reality one day.

Yan ordered the soldiers to go up slowly and gathered gradually. Because the Baize’s soldiers were unfamiliar with the ground conditions, they were attacked to retreat into a narrow cave by the Dark Forces. The Baize’s soldiers did not realize they were fooled until they entered the cave. Some struggled to get out, but the dark forces blocked the entrance of the cave. Then, flames popped in. Yan looked at the burned corpses through the breach and let out a sigh. Yu Xuanji was in a trap, but she did not realize that the Baize’s soldiers that she led were disappearing one by one. Beasts’ dreadful scream rebounded in the desolate forest, and the withered leaves cracked under the feet. Yu Xuanji looked around warily, and Yan fixed his eyes on the woman.
