After Yun Che returned to the Snow Song Realm, he had originally wanted to see the Ice Phoenix Divine Spirit as soon as possible. However, just as he had sent away the realm kings who had come after hearing the news, he was dragged away by Xia Qingyue.
With Xia Qingyue’s own strength, it would only take her half a day to fly back to the Moon God Realm, but with Yun Che as a burden, it would naturally be much slower.
A fairly large profound ark shuttled through the space of the Eastern Divine Territory, leaving behind a ray of moonlight-like afterimage.
There were only two people inside, Xia Qingyue and Yun Che.
Even though the Moon God Realm lost the Vanishing Moon Palace, it still had a large number of high-level Mysterious Boats and Ships, but they were far inferior to the Vanishing Moon Palace in terms of speed and defense capabilities. However, Xia Qingyue did not seem to have any intention of taking the Vanishing Moon Palace back from Yun Che.
“Qingyue, what exactly are you taking me to do?” Yun Che admired Xia Qingyue’s flawless back. “Last time you left without even saying a word, and this time you forcefully dragged me away again. You women have really strange minds. Well… don’t worry. Even if the worst happens in the future, I will ask Senior Jie Yuan to protect the Moon God Realm.”
“That’s not the case.” Xia Qingyue said softly.
“Then… you don’t want me to see your imperial power in the Moon God Realm with my own eyes, do you?”
"We are not going to the Moon God Realm."
“Huh?” Yun Che’s eyebrows jumped: “Then where are you taking me?”
Xia Qingyue slowly turned around. The light in the Xuanzhou was dim, but her body seemed to be emitting a hazy moonlight. Her figure and appearance were both breathtakingly beautiful.
She did not answer Yun Che’s question, but said slowly: “So you really died three years ago.”
“Did Master tell you this?” Yun Che was slightly stunned.
“Yes. She told me a lot about you, including the story between you and the Heavenly Killing Star God.” Xia Qingyue’s beautiful eyes turned slightly: “After the news that you possess the power of the Heretic God spreads, many people will think that your relationship with the Heavenly Killing Star God may be unusual. After all, it was she who obtained the Heretic God’s Immortal Blood in the Southern Divine Region and disappeared for eight years.”
“At the end of the Profound God Convention, you unexpectedly chose the Star God Realm. All things considered, it’s hard not to have some wild thoughts.”
Yun Che tilted his mouth and said, “Strange, Master has a very cold personality, doesn’t want to interact with people, and won’t trust anyone easily, but why does she trust you so much? Not only did she tell you these things, but she also casually allowed you to bring me out… When did you two become so familiar with each other? Could it be that you have been visiting Master frequently in the past few years?”
“No, Senior Mu and I are not familiar with each other, and we have only met a few times. Before you returned to the Snow Song Realm, I only met her once.”
That time, she was the one who left Yun Che in the Snow Song Realm. Mu Xuanyin sneaked into the Moon God Realm and asked her where Yun Che was.
“Then why does Master trust you so much?” Yun Che couldn’t understand this. He was the person closest to Mu Xuanyin and the one who understood her temperament the best.
“Maybe it’s a woman’s intuition.” Xia Qingyue said.
Yun Che: “……?”
“There is one thing you probably don’t know about the Heavenly Killing Star God.” Xia Qingyue said softly, “Back then, you and I fell into Qianye Ying’er’s hands in the Absolute Divine Realm. The reason we were able to escape was because the Heavenly Killing Star God and the Sirius Star God suddenly appeared and stopped Qianye Ying’er.”
“!!” Yun Che’s eyes fixed.
“She must have sensed something with her spiritual sense, so she has been following Qianye and Guzhu. It seems that she really cares about you. No wonder you rushed to the Star God Realm even though you knew you would die.”
“…” Yun Che’s heart sank when he thought of Jasmine, but when he thought about how she was still alive, even the shadow brought by the “Evil Infant” seemed to be nothing at all.
“Also, you probably won’t forget that it wasn’t just Qianye who chased us back then. There was also an old man in gray. His strength was terrifyingly strong, no less than any Brahma God in the Brahma Emperor God Realm. Tiansha and Tianlang stopped Qianye, but the one who stopped the old man in gray… was your master.”
“What!?” Yun Che’s heart was shocked again.
He was tortured to the point of passing out, and he did not see the appearance of Jasmine and Caizhi, nor did he see the mysterious blue shadow.
“She used her icy profound energy to seal off her own aura. When she fought with the grey-robed old man, she only used profound energy and did not use any profound skills. However, even so, there was still a risk of being exposed. Therefore, in order to save you at that time, she risked the Snow Song Realm being affected.” After taking a look at Yun Che’s expression, Xia Qingyue continued, “But now, Qianye and the grey-robed old man must have known that it was your master.”
“…” Yun Che was stunned for a long time.
“Oh! You died a joyful and tragic death, a death of deep love, worthy of your Heavenly Killing Star God! But… do you know how many people have devoted a lot of effort to keep you alive, taking great risks, and even almost sacrificing the future of the entire star realm, so that you have the opportunity to survive in the Dragon God Realm, and you knew that you would die but still wanted to die…”
"Who else can you be worthy of except the Heavenly Killing Star God!"
He thought of how furious Mu Xuanyin was when he returned to Yinxue, and felt mixed emotions.
“She treats you very well.” Xia Qingyue said.
“Ah… yeah!” Yun Che came back to his senses and nodded vigorously: “Master has always been very good to me.”
“Even in the memories of the previous generations of the Moon God Realm, it seems that there has never been a master who treated his disciples so well, and even ignored the star realm he ruled for it.” She raised her eyes to look at Yun Che and asked softly: “Senior Mu and you are indeed just master and disciple, right?”
“This… of course.” Yun Che, who always liked to look into Xia Qingyue’s beautiful eyes, turned away with a guilty conscience and looked towards the space outside the Xuanzhou: “Qingyue, you haven’t told me yet, where are you taking me to and what are you going to do?”
Xia Qingyue did not ask any more questions. She gently gathered her sleeves and said, “Before I answer you, please answer me a question first… It’s best if you can answer me honestly.”
"What's the problem?"
“Can you control…” Xia Qingyue’s soft lips paused slightly, and her voice slowed down: “Darkness profound power?”
“……!!” Yun Che’s gaze that was looking towards the outside of the Xuanzhou suddenly turned back and looked at Xia Qingyue in astonishment.
“Like you, I am not from the God Realm, so I don’t have a deep-rooted aversion to the dark profound energy. Don’t worry.” Xia Qingyue said calmly.
Yun Che’s first reaction was to deny it, but when he met Xia Qingyue’s gaze and listened to her words, the words of denial welled up in his throat but he couldn’t utter them. He was shocked and asked, “How did you know… Did Master also tell you?”
"No! That's not right! Master would never tell you this."
“Oh?” This time it was Xia Qingyue’s turn to be surprised: “So Senior Mu also knew about this.”
Yun Che: “…”
“As expected, it seems that what I thought was right. You do have dark profound energy in your body.” Although Xia Qingyue had already believed it about 70%, the certainty of this matter still made her feel complicated.
Although she was born in the lower realms and did not have such a strong aversion to the dark profound energy, the knowledge of the God Realm and the memories of previous Moon God Emperors made her know very clearly what kind of existence the "demon" was in the eyes of the people in the God Realm.
“How did you know?” Yun Che asked with his eyes wide open. He had only used the dark power twice in these years. Once he repaired the dark barrier of the Absolute Abyss and was seen by Mu Xuanyin, and once he proved to Jie Yuan that he possessed the dark power.
At other times, he had perfect control over the dark power and it was impossible for him to leak it.
It couldn't be that Jie Yuan told her, right?
"A month ago in the Eternal Heaven God Realm, when you were purifying the evil spirit of the Evil Infant for Qianye Fantian, you had a few changes in your mood. At that time, I asked you what you wanted to do, and you said you wanted to poison him. Now that I think about it, the poison you were talking about was the poison of the Sky Poison Pearl."
“What does this have to do with whether or not I have dark profound energy?” Yun Che was even more confused.
“You said something casually at the time,” Xia Qingyue glanced at him, “You said that you had a way to hide the ‘poison’ directly in the demonic energy in his body, so that he would not notice it. And the other meaning of this sentence is that you can control the dark demonic energy to a certain extent.”
"That is to say, you have the ability to control the dark power! And the level should be quite high."
“…” Yun Che was dumbfounded, completely shocked: “Just… just because of this? Just because of this?”
“Isn’t that enough?” Xia Qingyue asked with a sidelong glance.
“It’s not a question of whether it’s enough or not.” Yun Che’s eyes and mouth twitched together: “I just said it casually at the time. If you hadn’t mentioned it, I would have forgotten it myself. With just a few words that slipped by, you actually guessed that I have dark profound power!? This, this, this… No, you… You are too sharp-minded!!”
“It’s not that I’m sharp-minded, but that you’re too casual.” Xia Qingyue shook her head again: “Maybe, you’re not on guard in front of me.”
“Why would I be on guard in front of you! You are now the Moon God Emperor in the eyes of others, but in my eyes, you will always be the Xia Qingyue whom I married back then! In the God Realm, you and I are each other’s only ‘old acquaintances’. Do I have to concentrate and carefully consider everything I say and do in front of you?”
Yun Che suddenly became angry.
Xia Qingyue said indifferently: "Have you forgotten that we already..."
“Tsk!” Yun Che curled his lips and interrupted Xia Qingyue with a sneer: “You want to talk about the marriage certificate being destroyed again? I tell you, it’s useless to tear up the marriage certificate! Our marriage is still intact in Floating Cloud City, and the witness is alive and well.”
“According to the rules of our Floating Cloud City, unless I divorce you, or you bring evidence and material evidence that I am unworthy of being my husband to the Floating Cloud City Household Hall to dissolve the marriage after various examinations and a bunch of procedures, otherwise we will always be husband and wife! Dissolving the bond of husband and wife by tearing up the marriage certificate? Humph, the new God Emperor of the Moon God Realm is really childish.”
“…” Xia Qingyue was speechless for a long time.
"As a wife! When talking to your husband, you should think about wifely rules and romantic matters, but you..."
“Okay, let’s get down to business.” Xia Qingyue whispered with a voice that was both cold and gentle.
Yun Che also stopped talking "obediently" and glanced at Xia Qingyue silently.
Xia Qingyue's transformation was so great that he was in a trance.
Not to mention the time of marriage, even when he first met Xia Qingyue in the God Realm, although she was still a very calm person at that time, she would blame herself and feel confused about taking him away, would feel ashamed and angry about his intrusion, would panic about Qianye’s pursuit, and would also show resentment and shed tears...
As for Xia Qingyue today, her temperament and state of mind seemed to have been precipitated for thousands or even tens of thousands of years, becoming almost terrifyingly calm and indifferent.
Not only was her mind extremely meticulous, but her reaction to what he had just said was neither happy nor angry, she did not rebuke or refute, she only said lightly, "Okay, let's get down to business"...
“What I am going to take you to do is also related to your ‘dark mystical power’. Although you can still give it a try if you don’t have it, the probability of success will be much lower. This is the best.” Xia Qingyue said.
Yun Che hit a soft and gentle nail head-on, and his thoughts were forced to cool down. He had no choice but to get down to business: "What exactly is it?"
“I’ll find you a protective amulet.” Xia Qingyue’s words were still as gentle as the soft breeze: “Your current situation is too dangerous.”
Yun Che absolutely disagreed with this statement. He frowned and said, “Qingyue, you may think I am arrogant after hearing this, but in my current situation… I should be considered the least dangerous person in this world, right?”
Yun Che's words were not empty talk. Jie Yuan's arrival completely changed the rules of survival in the world. Those who once stood at the top of the food chain had to get close to Yun Che and curry favor with him in order to survive.
Even if those demon gods returned to the world and slaughtered all living beings in the world, Yun Che would definitely be intact. The fact that he had the power of the evil god was secondary. The key was that his life was connected to Hong'er, and Jie Yuan would never allow those demon gods to touch him.
Amulet? Is there any amulet in this world that is stronger than Jie Yuan?
