Back on track
Yi Wu narrowed her eyes slightly, not looking too happy. "Although I don't know why you insist on having the Yin-Yang Universe Pearl, I guess this matter is related to Jun Xuan."
She glanced at Jun Xuan, then quickly retracted her gaze, continuing to look at Tianjun. "Jun Xuan is your child, and Jiufang Mingyuan and Liuyu are also your children. Without the Yin-Yang Universe Pearl, he will die. Do you still insist on your opinion?"
This sentence was like a thunderclap, and the people who heard it in front of her were unable to react for a while.
"What did you say?" The Queen couldn't believe her ears and confirmed, "You said Jiufang Mingyuan and Liuyu are the children of the Heavenly Sovereign? What evidence do you have?"
Yi Wu sneered, "Your Majesty, do you think that the immortals and demons can't have offspring? So you never imagined that the Saint Girl would give birth to a child with you."
"The immortal and demonic spirits repelled each other, and he could not survive more than a hundred days. Jiufang Jie had no choice but to separate his immortal spirit and send it into the abyss. This is how Jiufang Mingyuan and Liuyu came into being today."
"If the Queen doesn't believe it, we can verify it."
Of course the Queen Mother didn't believe it, but the Emperor's reaction forced her to believe it, and her heart gradually sank to the bottom of the sea.
Jun Xuan was more shocked than anyone else. He looked down at the two figures on the ground with extremely complicated feelings.
Seeing Yi Wu personally helping him retrieve the Yin-Yang Universe Pearl, Jiufang Mingyuan was very pleased and kept looking up at her.
"Why don't you tell her that even if we find the Yin-Yang Universe Pearl, our souls can't hold on anymore?" Liu Yu said calmly, as if this was no big deal.
Jiufang Mingyuan clenched his fists, then unclenched them. "What if something happens? I don't want to make her sad. She finally admitted that she loves me, and I don't want to die yet."
The two of them fell silent at the same time, trying hard to calm their spirits.
Three hundred years—they'd held out long enough. After being pierced through the heart by Yi Wu's sword, they'd fought for days, then been drained of their essence by the blood demon vine. Now, their lives were in tatters. The only reason they'd managed to hold on until now was their obsession, a desire to see Yi Wu again.
The Heavenly Lord remained silent, and the nearby immortals had to believe that what Yiwu said was true.
The silence outside was eerily quiet, and Yin Xue, sensing something was amiss, came over to investigate. Behind him, followed several people Yi Wu knew well.
As soon as the two sides met, they were extremely jealous of each other.
"Yiwu, you're still alive!" Weng Xilai shook Zhongfu's arm and pouting coquettishly, "Uncle, kill her quickly."
Zhongfu's expression was serious as he solemnly warned the Demon King: "Be careful, she has mastered the Devouring Magic Technique, be careful with her."
Yin Xue didn't take it seriously and flew forward. "Now that my magic has reached its peak, no one can defeat me. What is there to fear from a mere magic devouring technique?"
The horn sounded, and it was blown three times in succession. The demon soldiers were summoned and rushed over here quickly.
Zhong Fu's right eyelid twitched, and he shouted, "Inject your cultivation into her and let her explode and die. Don't force it!"
"Death by explosion?" Yi Wu raised an eyebrow and dodged forward. "Thank you, Master Zhong. Otherwise, I wouldn't have known that Devouring Magic had such a weakness."
Bumping into the demon king head-on, Yi Wu lazily stretched out her right hand and grabbed at the air. A black, airtight net suddenly wrapped around Yin Xue.
Yin Xue could not move forward. The black net began to shrink, corroding his clothes and flesh, making a slight sizzling sound.
Panic suddenly crept into Yin Xue's heart, and she began to struggle violently, "What the hell is this!"
No one else had any way of knowing, and Yi Wu didn't have the time to explain it to him. She just folded her five fingers together, and the black net suddenly shrank to its smallest size.
With a "puff", the demon king who claimed to have mastered magic turned into a blood mist in the blink of an eye, leaving only the demon pill wrapped in a black net, emitting golden light.
Yi Wu took the demon pill with a casual move.
Finally realizing how Yiwu was different, Zhongfu turned and fled. With the Demon King dead, the demons, knowing they were no match for Yiwu, also began to flee.
Yiwu formed seals with her hands for the first time and cast a spell seriously.
A black spider web suddenly appeared on the ground, spreading rapidly from the bottom of her body to the surroundings, entangling the legs of the demon traitors and mutant demon soldiers who wanted to escape, making them unable to move.
When Su Yi arrived with the God of Wind, he happened to come across such a magnificent scene and was surprised for a moment.
Yi Wu waved at him, "Come here."
Su Yi jumped and came to the side of the blood demon vine. Afraid of being entangled by the black spider web, he chose a clean place to land.
Yi Wu would not go back on her word, so she immediately used the black spider webs to refine the demon soldiers, absorbed their cultivation, and transferred it to Su Yi.
In addition to him, there are Jiufang Mingyuan, Liuyu, Fengshen, and Jian Qinyuan.
The crisis that turned the world upside down was easily resolved by Yi Wu. This is an incredible good thing, but also a worrying bad thing.
After handling everything, Yi Wu returned to the Heavenly Monarch, her patience running out. "If you promise to give me the Yin-Yang Universe Pearl, I will release you now and save everyone I can for free."
"If you don't give it to me," she said, staring at Jun Xuan with a cold face, "I'll have to take it away by force."
"no!"
"I'll give it to you."
Two voices rang out at the same time. The Queen of Heaven turned her head abruptly and shouted angrily, "Xuan'er! No!"
"This matter was originally caused by me," Jun Xuan closed his eyes, guilt welling up in his heart, "I'm sorry, I'm not a man, and I made my father and mother worry so much."
Realizing what he was about to do, the Heavenly Sovereign lowered his head in agony. The Heavenly Empress tried her best to stop him, but was unable to break free from the Blood Demon Ivy, and tears streamed down her face in desperation.
"I'll give it to you right away." Jun Xuan took a deep breath, held his breath, and concentrated, mobilizing the last bit of his strength to force the Yin-Yang Qiankun Pearl out of his body.
A faint light flickered between his eyebrows. After a moment, a half-black and half-white bead emerged from his eyebrows and slowly floated towards Yi Wu.
After the Yin-Yang Pearl left his body, Jun Xuan's appearance began to change. He transformed from a man into a woman, and gasps were heard all around him.
In an instant, Yi Wu understood everything and reached out to hold the bead. "Jun Lin, you are not only unworthy of being the Emperor, you are also unworthy of being a father."
Jun Xuan looked at her, then at the ground. "I'm truly sorry for everything you've been through. I'm also sorry for causing unwarranted suffering to the people of this world. If sacrificing my life can atone for my sins, I can commit suicide right here and now."
Yi Wu waved her hand, "That's all."
After getting the things, she didn't want to talk nonsense with others. She quickly turned back to the ground, and raised her fingertips slightly backwards.
The black spider web climbed up the blood demon vine and cut off every branch at incredible speed, releasing all the hostages on the tree.
Yi Wu came back with great joy, but what greeted her were Jiufang Mingyuan and Liuyu's bodies and souls that had become somewhat transparent, and she was momentarily at a loss as to what to do.
She quickly handed over the Yin-Yang Universe Pearl, "Look, the Yin-Yang Universe Pearl, I got it back, here you go."
Jiufang Mingyuan stretched out his hand, passed his fingertips through the beads, and then withdrew it awkwardly, "I'm sorry, we tried our best."
"Don't cry." Liu Yu stretched out his hand, wanting to wipe her tears, but he couldn't touch her, feeling disappointed for a moment.
Tears suddenly covered Yi Wu's eyes. She blinked them away quickly, trying to grab onto something. "No, you can't just disappear like this. I... I haven't had time to apologize to you. I'm sorry, I misunderstood you. I..."
"I...I shouldn't have acted impulsively and ignored your explanation. Give me a chance..."
She used the Devouring Magic to try to capture their souls, but was completely helpless. Souls had no physical form, so the Devouring Magic couldn't hold them.
"I don't blame you."
Jiufang Mingyuan and Liuyu's voices overlapped, as if they were one person. "Thank you for coming. I'm already satisfied to see you again."
He didn't want to disappear, but no matter how hard he tried, he could only stay alive for a few more moments.
Yi Wu bent her body in pain, buried her face in her hands, and let out a painful wail.
The person was right in front of her, but she was helpless. She could save so many people, but she couldn't save the one she loved. Why was fate always so unfair?
The uncontrollable crying attracted the attention of the others, and they all looked over here.
At one glance, Changyao's eyes reddened, tears streaming down her face. Jian Qinyuan also lowered his head and wiped his eyes, unable to bear to watch any longer. The Wind God's face was filled with pity, his heart filled with sympathy.
Drop by drop, it began to rain on the top of the clouds, a black rain, an unprecedented magic-devouring rain.
The raindrops corrode the blood demon vines, the demon soldiers, all the culprits, the dry bones and corpses, the broken walls and ruins, and restore everything to its original state.
The dead were resurrected, the living were healed, and the magnificent palace shone with golden light... This black rain brought rebirth to the Vanity Continent.
Yi Wu tightly grasped the Yin-Yang Universe Pearl in her hand, watching Jiufang Mingyuan and Liuyu's spirits fade away, crying until she was hoarse, "How could you, how could you..."
Yuanshen shed transparent tears and opened his mouth, but no sound came out.
The fairyland returned to its original appearance, but she didn't have the chance to see it with him.
"You're just crying, isn't he still alive?"
An extremely cold voice sounded out of nowhere, and a dark blue figure landed beside him, snatched the bead from Yi Wu's hand, and began to gather Jiufang Mingyuan and Liuyu's souls.
"Jiufang Jie!"
The immortals exclaimed, they didn't expect that he was not dead.
Yi Wu raised her head and clearly saw that Jiufang Mingyuan and Liuyu's spirits did not seem to fade anymore, and she looked at Jiufang Jie excitedly.
Jiufang Jie glanced at her and said a few words with great compassion, "Thanks to you, little girl, I am in good health. You have done me a favor, so naturally I have to help you this time."
It was he who separated Jiufang Mingyuan's souls in the first place, so naturally he had a way to bring them back together.
The Yin-Yang Universe Pearl entered Jiufang Mingyuan's body, and his two souls and bodies began to merge. Wisps of golden light enveloped them, and when they dispersed, only a sleeping figure remained.
Yiwu grabbed his hand and finally felt relieved. "Thank you."
"The soul has returned and needs to recuperate for some time. It will not wake up for the time being." Jiufang Jie turned around and saw the immortals, his face suddenly darkened.
The Heavenly Lord knew he was in the wrong, so he finally put aside his pride, took a few steps forward, and bowed his head solemnly to apologize.
Jiufang Jie's expression eased a little. He didn't know what had happened over the years, but since the Yin-Yang Qiankun Pearl had been retrieved and the Heavenly Emperor had apologized, the matter was over.
The conflict between the immortals and demons ended and peace returned temporarily.
The Demon Lord led all the demons away from Cloud Peak and returned to the Underworld. The immortals returned to Cloud Peak, and the Heavenly Lord requested to descend to the mortal world to be punished, accompanied by the Queen of Heaven. Jun Xuan temporarily took over the position of the Heavenly Lord.
Everything finally returned to normal. Yiwu followed the demons back to Ji Ming and took good care of Jiufang Mingyuan.
…
A few days later, Jiufang Mingyuan finally woke up, but looked at Yiwu with a bewildered look, "Who are you?"
Yi Wu was stunned for a moment, countless thoughts flashing through her mind, and finally her head popped on his forehead, "If you dare to use this trick of amnesia on me, believe it or not..."
"What?" Jiufang Mingyuan's eyes regained clarity and he teased deliberately.
"I'm going to strangle you to death!" Yi Wu pretended to strangle him, but her hands were grabbed and she was taken to the bed.
"Huh? What for?"
“Hmm…”
"Jiufang Mingyuan!"
