Chapter 602 - Shocking Possibility

“What are your plans for the future?” Zhou Xuanji asked Yang Di. No matter how his relationship with Yang Di was in the past, he now saw Yang Di quite favorably.

Back then, Yang Di had many opportunities to get rid of him, but he didn’t.

It was not because he underestimated Zhou Xuanji but because he was very proud.

However, this fellow was somewhat useless against undefeatable enemies.

Yang Di replied, “No need to feel pity for me. I will not die; rather, I will become heavenly law.”

He looked somewhat proud.

Heavenly law was the most powerful existence; when that time came, he would become truly invincible.

Zhou Xuanji fell silent.

Qiu Hu could not help but say, “If your will is gone, what’s the point of becoming heavenly law?”

Yang Di asked in response, “Is there anything that you dedicated your life to?”

Qiu Hu was startled; he had never thought of this before.

The reason he cultivated was so he could live freely.

“Everyone has their ambitions; there’s not much more to be said,” Si Mengyan said as he shook his head. He did not look down on Yang Di’s decision, nor did he approve of it.

Following this, Yang Di leapt up and flew into the clouds.

Zhou Xuanji and the others entered the Void before jumping back into the Wanshen Great Thousand.

They landed in a forest.

Ren Niming said, “Wait for me here. I’m going to do some planning; don’t leave and wait for me to come back.”

After saying this, he left.

Qiu Hu sat on the ground against a big tree and sighed as he said, “We can finally rest.”

Si Mengyan walked to one side and sat down to rest.

Zhou Xuanji took out Demon God Tianwu and Demon God Nanming as he said, “I’m going into the world inside my magic treasure to take a look.”

After saying this, he entered the world within the 24 Rank Deep Black Lotus.

After he disappeared, the 24 Rank Deep Black Lotus was revealed.

Qiu Hu and Si Mengyan looked at the 24 Rank Deep Black Lotus with curiosity and both of them inwardly marvelled at how great it was.

Zhou Xuanji quickly went to find Jiang Xue and the others.

At that moment, they were in a room, and the atmosphere was quite tense.

Zhou Xuanji appeared behind Jiang Xue and found that Zhou Xiaoxuan was lying on the bed, her face covered with cold sweat.

He asked, “What’s going on?”

Hearing him speak, Jiang Xue, Lady Zhaoxuan, and Huang Lianxin were all given a big fright.

He quickly came to the bed and examined Zhou Xiaoxuan.

“She said that her eyes were itchy before suddenly fainting,” Jiang Xue said anxiously. Hearing this, Zhou Xuanji frowned.

Her eyes were itchy?

His eyes had also itched but it had stopped.

Why had Zhou Xiaoxuan felt an itchiness in her eyes?

His eyes had gone through changes after Zhou Xiaoxuan had been born; if there was a connection, it should be with Xian Xianghua.

He used his divine sense to examine Zhou Xiaoxuan.

He found that there was a terrifying power in Zhou Xiaoxuan’s eyes, but it was different than his eyes.

“What is that?” Zhou Xuanji’s frown became deeper. For some reason, he felt very unsettled because he felt that this power was somewhat familiar.

He seemed to have seen it somewhere before.

He took out the Holy Light Redemption Sword to treat Zhou Xiaoxuan.

After a while, Zhou Xiaoxuan woke up.

She opened her eyes and saw Zhou Xuanji, and her gaze was hazy as she muttered, “Father… I had a nightmare… I’m so scared…”

Zhou Xuanji wiped away the cold sweat on her forehead and asked gently, “What was it? Since it was a nightmare, don’t take it too seriously.”

Seeing Zhou Xiaoxuan like this, he felt an ache in his heart.

It had been a long time since he had taken care of her like this.

This girl was normally giggling and in high spirits, so he rarely concerned himself with what she was thinking.

Without realizing it, he found that he did not understand her much.

“I dreamed that you died… mother and grand-teacher also died… there were corpses everywhere… only I was left…” Zhou Xiaoxuan said as her eyes became red.

She thought of a certain possibility and became more and more terrified.

The old immortal had said that she contained a mysterious power, and adding on the fact that Zhou Xuanji was being targeted by destiny, she could not help but have wild thoughts.

Jiang Xue and the other women’s expressions changed; they also thought of that kind of possibility.

Zhou Xuanji’s gaze was calm as he smiled and said, “Silly girl, with how powerful your father is, how could he die? Don’t think too much; even if you wanted to kill me, you wouldn’t be able to do so.”

Looking at his steady gaze, Zhou Xiaoxuan’s uneasy heart became more at peace.

“My eyes also contain some sort of power, but this power might attract enemies from outside heavenly law, existences even more terrifying than destiny. And yet, I’m not afraid, so what are you afraid of?” Zhou Xuanji smiled as he said and flicked Zhou Xiaoxuan’s nose.

Zhou Xiaoxuan looked at his violent pupil and gave a slight smile.

Indeed, Zhou Xuanji’s eyes seemed more dangerous than hers.

Zhou Xuanji got up and said to Jiang Xue, “Be careful for the time-being, even in this world in the lotus. I still need to go out to deal with Heavenly Lord Xuantie, and if Xiaoxuan has any issues, just call out to me and I’ll be able to sense it.”

Jiang Xue nodded. She walked forwards and said in concern, “Are you really fine? You can take us to leave the domain of the heavenly law. Even though we might die, we can at least die together, and we won’t have to kill each other.”

With how imperceptible destiny was, who knew how it might control them.

Jiang Xue did not want to end up harming Zhou Xuanji one day.



Zhou Xuanji gave a confident smile and said, “Don’t worry, it won’t come to that.”



Within the Demon realm, on a tall mountain, a black-robed Xian Xianghua sat on a throne. She wore a veil and her posture was frivolous and domineering.

As her gaze swept out, there were countless demons bowing on the ground. They were incredibly dense, and they filled the land as far as the eye could see.

“The Demon Master is peerless in the world! The Demon Master is on par with the heavens!”

“The Demon Master is peerless in the world! The Demon Master is on par with the heavens!”

“The Demon Master is peerless in the world! The Demon Master is on par with the heavens!”

Countless demons shouted in unison, their voices shaking the clouds.

Xian Xianghua smiled so widely her eyes turned to slits.

She had finally once again returned to the peak of authority.

She started to loudly laugh, and her laughter combined with the demons’ shouting caused the Demon Realm to become even more terrifying.

After a while, the demons left, and Xian Xianghua sat on her throne by herself, looking out at the Demon Realm as she thought to herself.

A figure suddenly descended from the sky, landing in front of her.

It was a middle-aged man in black robes. He had sword-like eyebrows and hawk-like eyes, as well as wide shoulders and a calm-looking face.

“I am Yu Xuanzhong, a Heavenly Saint. I am here to give you an opportunity to become a Heavenly Saint; are you willing?” the black-robed man spoke with a tone that did not seem to allow rejection.

Heavenly Saint!

Xian Xianghua slightly frowned and got up as she lightly asked, “What opportunity?”

It was the first time she had met a Heavenly Saint.

Even though she was arrogant, she knew that she was not a match for a Heavenly Saint.

“Wanshen Great Thousand’s Sword Emperor Zhou Xuanji has two Heavenly Law Violet Qi. As the new ruler of the Demon Realm, are you willing to deal with him?” Yu Xuanzong said slowly as she looked into Xian Xianghua’s eyes, as if he wanted to look into her mind.

Xian Xianghua’s eyes narrowed as she said, “Zhou Xuanji? I’ve heard of him before. With how powerful he is, wouldn’t attacking him be the same as asking for death?”

Yu Xuanzong flicked his sleeves and turned, saying, “I have found many Saint Contenders. When the time comes, all of you can join hands to deal with Zhou Xuanji. After killing him, you can fight for the Heavenly Law Violet Qi. Before then, I will think of a way to trap Zhou Xuanji.”
