After flying out of the Imperial Heavenly Palace, Yun Che and Qianye Ying'er did not leave the Imperial Heavenly Realm, but stayed at the border.
"If we forcibly kill Yan Sangeng, the entire Yama Realm will be furious, and the hunt for us has probably already begun."
Qianye Ying'er said leisurely. Although her cultivation was still far from what it was before after refining half of the Savage World Pill, being able to recover to this level in such a short time was something she had never even dreamed of when she was desperate.
“That’s the best.” Yun Che said.
“The Yama Realm is furious, and the Burning Moon Realm must have also received the news. Add to that a frightened witch, and the Queen of Demons will not be able to sit still no matter what.” Qianye Ying’er glanced at Yun Che and said, “This is indeed the best method, but it also carries the greatest risk.”
“No risk.” Yun Che said: “After all, she is the one who can find our location the fastest.”
“Oh,” Qianye Ying’er exhaled softly, “If you were this decisive and ruthless in the past, you wouldn’t have ended up like this.”
Yun Che looked at her coldly and said in a low voice, “Don’t always try to provoke my anger.”
“I hope to see you angry once in a while.” Facing Yun Che’s cold gaze, Qianye Ying’er smiled faintly: “If one day, you don’t even have anger anymore, that would be…”
She did not finish the second half of the sentence. At the same time, she naturally avoided Yun Che's gaze and looked into the distance.
"I'm very curious," Qianye Ying'er continued, "What do you want to do with Tian Guhu?"
“If it’s useful, why not use it?” Yun Che said.
"...Very good." Qianye Ying'er replied without asking any more questions.
During the half year that she had been refining the Savage World Pill, Yun Che seemed to have been thinking about a lot of things.
The Imperial Heaven Realm, and even most of the Northern Divine Territory, had begun to experience increasingly violent turmoil at this moment.
The grand gathering of the Heavenly Monarchs, which attracted the attention of all the people in the Northern Territory, was interrupted in a shocking way. Tian Gu Hu Tongjing was defeated miserably, the Devil King Yama died, and the Fourth Witch fled in defeat.
Although the Northern Divine Region was in turmoil every moment, such a terrifying event had not occurred in who knows how many years.
A large number of people from the King Realm began to rush to the Imperial Heaven Realm at full speed. As the first star realm under the King Realm, it was the first time that the Imperial Heaven Realm was "favored" by the King Realm. Even the most low-level profound practitioners in the Imperial Heaven Realm could clearly smell an unusual aura.
The instigator of all this was the calmest and most indifferent person. The two were not flying very fast, and the scenery below kept changing. Before they knew it, a large bamboo forest appeared in front of them.
The aura of Lingzhu made Yun Che’s eyes subconsciously lower, and he did not move away for a long time.
Ling'er...
In the past, every time he saw the bamboo forest, he would think of Su Ling'er, because that was the most painful mark in his heart.
The mark only disappeared when it was lost and found again.
To gain and then lose again is even more heartbreaking.
Qianye Ying'er tilted her eyes slightly and said, "It's strange that there are green bamboos growing in the Northern Territory."
She casually hooked her slender fingers around Yun Che's sleeve ornament and said, "Let's go and take a look."
The two of them then landed and stood in the bamboo forest.
At the border of the Imperial Heaven Realm, the dark aura is much lighter. The spiritual bamboo here is quite dark in color, but the aura still retains a rare freshness and purity.
This was the first time that Yun Che saw a bamboo forest in the Northern Divine Region.
Perhaps it is because the aura is relatively "too" pure that the existence of dark beasts cannot be sensed here. It seems like a pure land temporarily forgotten by the dark world.
“Back then, after my mother passed away, I buried her in the bamboo forest.” Qianye Ying’er said slowly, “Although she is the emperor’s concubine, she never likes disputes. Perhaps, even her identity was forced.” To be able to give birth to the Brahma Emperor Goddess, it is conceivable that her mother must have been a stunning beauty when she was alive.
"Let her rest in peace in the bamboo forest. I hope she can enjoy the fresh air forever and never be trapped in the chaos and filth again." Qianye Ying'er's eyes were blurred for a moment, and her voice became a little darker: "Every time I return to the world, I will go to pay my respects and visit her first. But this time, it took a little while."
Yun Che looked ahead without saying a word.
In that life on Cangyun Continent, when Su Ling'er died in his arms, he realized that his heart was devoured by hatred. However, no matter how much he regretted or hated himself, it was too late to change.
That is why, after the awakening of the Profound Tian Continent, he vowed to do everything he could to protect the people he loved and never allow himself to repeat the same mistakes again.
“Hatred is a devil. It will blind your eyes, devour your reason and soul, and bury all hope and light in your life.”
These were the words he used to admonish Fen Juechen back then.
But now, he once again fell into the abyss of hatred. And this time, he allowed himself to be devoured by hatred. For this, he could sacrifice everything.
It's like a sad, cruel, and destined cycle of reincarnation.
He raised his feet and walked forward slowly. After a few steps, the haze in his pupils disappeared, and his eyes returned to indifference.
The bamboo forest was very large. The two of them strolled in it for a long time before a petite shadow appeared in their sight.
A girl who looked only thirteen or fourteen years old was leaning against a dark green bamboo. She was thin, dirty, with messy hair and scars on her face.
The girl hugged her knees with her hands, half paralyzed and leaning on the bamboo, her whole body exuding a kind of weakness that made people feel distressed. Her half-open eyes stared blankly ahead, and her eyes, which should have been bright, were only dim.
It was not until Yun Che and Qianye Ying'er were about ten steps away from her that she suddenly became aware of it, and then, like a startled bird, she tried to flee in panic. But it seemed that her body was too weak, and before she could fully stand up, her feet had already stumbled violently and fell heavily to the ground.
The girl was trembling all over. She shrank back and turned around. After seeing Yun Che and Qianye Ying'er clearly, the fear in her eyes finally dissipated a lot. However, the feeling of exhaustion after the shock made her whole body sore and she was unable to stand up for a long time.
The two of them have seen this kind of scene too many times.
No matter how talented a young person is, they still have too little time to practice. If they don’t have the protection of elders or other forces, it is common for them to die young in the living environment of the Northern Divine Region.
The girl in front of her was left alone, and had obviously lost all her protection. And here was the Royal Heaven Realm with countless strong men. If she couldn't find a strong enough backer, it would be very difficult for her to survive in the future.
“Two… seniors.” Looking at Yun Che and Qianye Ying’er, the girl’s eyes were full of movement. She mustered up all her courage and begged, “Can… can you give me a Huixuan Pill… or food, too. Please. In the future, I will definitely repay your kindness.”
Yun Che had no expression on his face, but he walked up to the girl and stretched out his hand. In his palm was a snow-white pill that exuded an icy aura.
"?" Qianye Ying'er was puzzled, but did not show it at all.
This is a Snow Face Pill from Frozen Cloud Immortal Palace. Given the girl's age, her cultivation is obviously far inferior to that of a god. However, this Snow Face Pill is enough to help her greatly: "It will quickly restore your profound strength and will also be of great benefit to your cultivation. Take it."
After placing it in the girl’s hand, Yun Che turned around.
"Ah..." The girl was stunned for a moment, and then like a hungry cat, she swallowed the Snow Face Pill directly into her stomach without caring whether it was poison or a strong elixir that she could not refine.
When she raised her head again, her eyes were already filled with tears: "Thank you two seniors for your kindness, you... you are really good people. In the future, I will definitely repay you."
“I will remember what you said.” Yun Che smiled faintly.
“Chuckle, chuckle…”
Suddenly, a woman's sweet laughter floated into the quiet bamboo forest. The laughter was lazy and wanton, seeming far away, yet close at hand.
The moment the laughter reached his ears, Yun Che's entire body suddenly softened. Even after the laughter died down, that indescribable tingling sensation still did not dissipate, but spread to his entire body, even his bones became a little softer.
"What a kind-hearted child! I am so moved that I am almost in tears."
Yun Che had heard countless immortal voices in his life, including the ethereal voice of Feng Xue’er, the majestic and cold voice of the Little Demon Queen, the ethereal voice of Shen Xi, the cold voice of Mu Xuanyin… Even in the Northern Divine Region, he had encountered the voice of Nanhuang Chanyi, who had an exceptionally gentle voice.
His emotions were in the abyss, his soul was filled with hatred, and with Qianye Ying'er following him, it was almost impossible for him to be moved by beauty or voice.
But the voice that rang in his ears at this moment, just a smile and a few words, caused every blood vessel in Yun Che's body to dilate, and every strand of hair to tremble slightly.
Moreover, this voice... does not contain any mysterious power or soul power!
Yun Che’s brows slightly darkened, and beside him, Qianye Ying’er’s expression also changed significantly.
Back then, she had heard Qianye Fantian say that in the Northern Divine Region, there existed a very terrifying voice that could easily penetrate a person's bones and take away their soul. At that time, she respected her father very much and would not question Qianye Fantian's words. After returning to the Northern Region, she had also thought of this sentence several times.
However, the sound in her ears still shocked her, even though she was mentally prepared.
Charm... a kind of extremely delicate and yet extremely terrifying charm. The word "soul-devouring" is not enough to describe it.
Qianye Ying'er knew and witnessed countless so-called charming voices and charming skills that could bewitch people's souls, but she always sneered at them.
But the sound in his ears completely surpassed the level of "charming sound", and there was no trace of any charm. This short sentence completely ignored the defense of Yun Che and Qianye Ying'er's soul, and throbbed every string of their soul.
It seemed like a kind of devilish sound that did not exist in our cognition, or should not exist in the world at all.
Yun Che’s chest bulged noticeably, and after a few breaths, he slowly leaned back. He glanced at the stunned girl and said, “Go, the farther the better.”
His words woke the girl up from her daze. She quickly stood up and walked away without daring to say another word.
The girl had just left when a black shadow slowly came out of the bamboo forest ahead.
The shadow appeared without any warning, yet it didn't seem abrupt at all. It seemed as if she had always been there.
Her whole body was shrouded in a layer of black mist that kept flowing and seemed to have life. Her steps were light and slow, as if she was walking out of an unknown dark abyss. With every step, the light would dim a little, and with every step, the spiritual bamboo around her would turn into flying black dust.
The black smoke obscured her face and figure, but anyone who saw her at first glance would be absolutely certain that this was a woman. Because even though the black mist was lingering, even though she was obviously wearing a loose black dress, the naturally convex body curves were so breathtaking every moment as she walked.
Yun Che...even Qianye Ying'er's gaze froze for a long time.
It was just a blurry glimpse, and they could not imagine what kind of devil's body would appear if the black fog dissipated.
Whether in Yun Che's life or Qianye Ying'er's life, there has never been a person whose voice or body gave them an extremely clear feeling of "terribility".
"[ biquge.xyz] I guessed we would meet soon." Qianye Ying'er said, her fingers folded silently. The woman in the black mist in front of her did not release any mysterious energy, nor did she show any dominance, but she felt unprecedented alertness in her heart: "I didn't expect it to be so soon. Your patience is much worse than I thought."
Qianye Ying'er walked forward slowly, her lips moving slightly as she uttered the name, "The Demon Queen of the Northern Territory, Chi Wuyao!"
