Chapter 432: Great!
“The master is waiting for you inside; I’ll take my leave so as not to disturb you!”
After speaking, Ziyi turned and left without a moment’s pause.
Upon seeing this, Ye Feng strode meteorically into the palace ahead, with the Six Beasts and the Luo Qingcheng sisters closely following behind him.
The Six Beasts naturally knew that Ye Feng never fought a battle he wasn’t confident of winning, daring to come only because he had a card up his sleeve.
However, as his closest Imperial Beasts, even they did not know what Ye Feng’s trump card was.
“Swoosh!”
The moment Ye Feng and the others stepped into the palace, the stars shifted, and only after they had steadied themselves did they realize that they were not inside the palace but in a completely different realm.
“A two-level World Within the World!”
A divine light flashed in Ye Feng’s eyes; Wujian Purgatory was already considered an independent world within the World of Eternity, yet within Wujian Purgatory, there was another realm.
Moreover, this realm was incredibly strong!
This made Ye Feng’s eyebrows lift slightly, as even a powerhouse of Vice Palace Master Lin’s caliber would have found it difficult to tear apart such a realm.
This wasn’t the handiwork of the Demon Lord; it must have been done by the beings behind her from the Yellow Spring Eternal Realm.
Probably, the Xuanming Tao Palace also possessed several layers of Worlds within the World.
Meanwhile, there was a crystalline light swirling in the Demon Lord’s eyes, like stars, vast and profound.
Indeed, as she had anticipated, the man before her had grown stronger than he was ten years ago.
He had reached the Peak Emperor Realm!
In the span of ten years, he had advanced from the Seventh Level of the Eternal Realm to the Peak Emperor Realm.
Such a rate of cultivation was probably considered a miracle even among the forty-nine Eternal Realms.
Even the Demon Lord herself was taken aback.
However, surprised as she was, it did not change her intentions.
“We still do not know the name of the esteemed one whose renown echoes through the World of Eternity.”
“Now, the entire World of Eternity is speculating about your name, aren’t they?”
The Demon Lord spoke in a light voice, her melodious tone dreamy and refreshing like a mountain spring, cleansing Ye Feng’s divine soul.
Quite a powerful charm, no wait, it’s not charm, it’s innate, this guy~~
Ye Feng’s heart gave a gentle shudder; the Demon Lord’s few words had effortlessly overshadowed Luo Xian’er’s attempt to bewitch him back then.
In her presence, the latter seemed like a toddler just learning to walk, while the former was already an adult well-versed in the ways of the world.
“Ye Feng, I’ve seen the Demon Lord!”
“Ye Feng~ What a good name. The surname Ye has indeed produced many mighty individuals who have covered heaven and earth with their reputation.”
“The Demon Lord flatters me!”
“May I know why the Demon Lord has invited me here? It can’t just be for a bit of small talk,”
The corners of Ye Feng’s mouth tilted slightly upward as he looked at the equally exalted face of the Demon Lord with interest.
This guy had assets even more fearsome than Ziyi’s; Ye Feng was starting to wonder whether the Demon Lord’s clothes would burst under the strain of her magnificence.
Originally, he thought Ziyi was imposing, but compared to the Demon Lord, it was like the difference between heaven and earth.
Truly a frog at the bottom of a well, how shameful!
Ye Feng’s expression remained unchanged, but his heart was thoroughly shaken.
The world is vast and full of wonders!
“Giggle giggle giggle~”
The Demon Lord’s laughter made her tremble like a flower in the breeze, making Ye Feng feel that her clothing was about to burst at any moment given the indescribable sight before him.
The Demon Lord laughed without any regard for image, which dumbfounded Luo Qingcheng who was beside Ye Feng.
She had actually been stunned the moment she entered; she originally thought Ziyi was the pinnacle of beauty, but in front of the Demon Lord, Ziyi paled in comparison.
On the other hand, Luo Xian’er was so annoyed she itched to do something about it; her own figure and her sister’s were flawless, yet she hadn’t anticipated that someone could reach such a level in that regard.
This shock, combined with the Demon Lord’s countenance, which was of the same level as theirs but even more seductively enchanting, far surpassed the impact Luo Qingcheng and Luo Xian’er could make.
“I don’t know what she eats to get so big!”
“So big must be so heavy and cumbersome, perhaps they’re even sagging already.”
Luo Xian’er spoke softly, but everyone present was an exceptional powerhouse; the moment she spoke, Luo Qingcheng’s expression changed, and the Six Beasts also silently gathered their strength, ready to react instantly should the Demon Lord erupt.
However, it seemed the Demon Lord hadn’t heard Luo Xian’er’s muttering, and instead, her bright eyes were fixated on Ye Feng.
“Demon Lord is what those outside call me; you may call me Ziying,” she said.
“The reason I’ve called you here is to propose a trade with you.”
“Oh? I’m all ears!”
Ye Feng still looked at the Demon Lord with an air of calm indifference.
“You must possess the Hongmeng Purple Qi, essential for the foundation of your path, right?”
“Indeed,” Ye Feng admitted openly, which garnered some newfound respect from the Demon Lord.
The lad is quite interesting, she thought, seemingly unafraid of her.
“The trade I wish to make with you is for you to give your Hongmeng Purple Qi to Ziying, and in exchange, Ziying will grant you a piece of Creation. How does that sound?”
“I’m genuinely curious what sort of Creation could possibly be better than the Hongmeng Purple Qi?” Ye Feng asked calmly as he gazed at her.
“Ye Feng, you were right to say that in this world, there is no Creation better than the Hongmeng Purple Qi, but the Creation I’m offering is exactly what you need right now,” she asserted.
“To ascend from the Seventh Level of the Eternal Realm directly to the Peak Emperor in just ten years is indeed unheard of. Given time, sooner or later, you might well reach the strength of the Nine Heavens Realm, or even the Transcendence Realm.”
“However, do you think the Supreme and the God Lord will give you that time?”
“To my knowledge, they have already joined forces!”
“Furthermore, the Vice Palace Master of the Xuanming Tao Palace whom you slew was just an exceptionally ordinary one among the vice palace masters of this generation, not the strongest.”
“Do you know how many generations of vice palace masters the Xuanming Tao Palace has had before this one?”
Even I do not know for sure, but to be conservative, there have been at least ten.”
“Among these vice palace masters, more than one possesses strength comparable to that of the Supreme and the God Lord.”
“Do you believe you have the power to confront them as you are now?”
“Thus, the best option before you now is to hand over the Hongmeng Purple Qi, use this opportunity to slip away from their notice, and in doing so, improve your strength.”
“You…”
Luo Xian’er immediately understood upon hearing this; the person before her was planning to make a profit without any investment. She was about to speak up when Luo Qingcheng stopped her.
Luo Xian’er always listened to her sister and quickly realized that it was best for neither of them nor the Six Beasts to say anything at this time; they had no way of knowing how things might develop.
Luo Qingcheng gave Luo Xian’er a sharp look, and the latter signalled that she was just impulsive but now understood.
“I have to admit, what the Demon Lord has said is indeed true!”
“Well then!”
The Demon Lord was already prepared for Ye Feng to reject her proposal, even ready to take action, but at Ye Feng’s single word of agreement, she was momentarily taken aback.
