Although she was anxious, Chu Yu still ate on time. Only by conserving her strength could she find a way to escape from here.
In the evening, when the little fox demon came to deliver food again, a cold wind suddenly swept by, and the next second, with a bang, he was knocked unconscious. Chu Yu was startled and looked up to see a masked man in black standing at the door.
Chu Yu's expression changed slightly, and she asked warily, "Who are you, and what do you want?"
The man in black glanced at her, then reached out and removed the veil from his face, revealing his true appearance.
Chu Yu looked closely and exclaimed, "Second Senior Brother!"
This person was actually his second senior brother, Lu Xianqing.
Lu Xianqing is highly skilled in cultivation, upright and aloof. He is 27 years old this year and is a soul-collecting messenger from the underworld.
A year ago, he was assigned by the King of Hell to carry out a secret mission, and he has not shown up or contacted them since.
I never expected him to appear here.
Lu Xianqing said urgently to Chu Yu, "Junior sister, don't worry, I've come to save you."
He quickly came to Chu Yu's side and used a special magical artifact to untie the Immortal Binding Rope on her body.
Chu Yu asked curiously, "Second Senior Brother, they said you went on a secret mission. Did you complete your mission? Why are you suddenly here?"
Lu Xianqing explained to her meaningfully: "To tell you the truth, a year ago, Yama discovered some unusual activity on Penglai Island and specially sent me to investigate secretly."
After I arrived here, I discovered that some dragons had secretly broken the seal on the abandoned Heavenly Palace and were doing some strange things here. In order to investigate further, I concealed my identity and have been lurking in the shadows ever since.
Two days ago, I saw Jingyi bring you back and lock you in the basement. I observed you for two days and finally found an opportunity to rescue you.
Chu Yu was somewhat surprised. It turned out that her second senior brother's secret mission was to investigate the unusual activities on Penglai Immortal Island.
"This is not the place to talk, let's leave quickly."
Lu Xianqing draped a black robe over Chu Yu, covered her face with a black veil, and pulled her away. Chu Yu looked around and hesitated, saying, "Jingyi has set up a restriction here. It won't be easy to leave."
Lu Xianqing cleverly said, "I stole the pass token from that little fox demon. With the token, I should be able to leave this place."
He took a token out of his pocket and handed it to Chu Yu. The token emitted a spiritual power, and the oppressive feeling brought by the restriction was immediately relieved.
Lu Xianqing led her outside, and the token proved effective; they quickly left the basement.
Once outside, there were patrolling soldiers all around. These soldiers were dressed as celestial soldiers from ancient times. At first glance, they looked like celestial soldiers, but upon closer inspection, it was discovered that they were in spirit form.
Lu Xianqing led her away from the soldiers to an empty house.
Chu Yu sensed something was wrong and asked in bewilderment, "Why are there heavenly soldiers' souls patrolling outside?"
Lu Xianqing explained to her: "A year ago, I came here to investigate and found that although Jingyi was sealed, his soul left his body and came here. He secretly opened the seal of the Heavenly Palace and used the forbidden techniques of the Dragon Clan to summon the souls of the heavenly soldiers and generals who died in ancient times. He made them into puppets that obeyed him, and thus he regained control of the Heavenly Palace."
Not only that, he also used illusion magic to restore the Heavenly Palace, which had been reduced to ruins, to its ancient state.
Chu Yu understood. She had been wondering why the Heavenly Palace, which had been destroyed in the ancient war, was the same as before when she arrived. It turned out that Jing Yi had used an illusion.
“There are now tens of thousands of heavenly soldiers and generals in the Heavenly Palace, with a huge force. Jingyi has broken through the seal and returned, and his cultivation has been fully restored. He has also contacted the dragon clans of the four sea regions, wanting to unite them to rebel, invade the underworld and the human world, and control the Yin and Yang realms,” Lu Xianqing said coldly.
Chu Yu had guessed this before, and now that he heard him say it, she was very angry: "Jingyi is too much. In ancient times, because of him, the Heavenly Palace was destroyed, 100,000 heavenly soldiers and generals perished, and countless fairies died. I didn't expect that in modern times, he would cause trouble again and even try to disrupt the Yin and Yang realms. He is really hateful."
Second Brother, have you informed the underworld about these matters?
Lu Xianqing nodded: "I have secretly sent a letter to King Yama, telling him about the situation here. King Yama replied to me that the underworld has made preparations."
Chu Yu breathed a sigh of relief: "That's good."
The Underworld is now extremely powerful. Even if Jingyi leads those heavenly soldiers and generals who have become souls to invade the Underworld, the Underworld can still contend with them.
Chu Yu thought of Fu Yunche and felt a little worried.
Two days have passed. I wonder how he is doing now?
Just then, a disturbance occurred ahead. A huge azure dragon flew down from the sky and roared at the ground. The entire Heavenly Palace shook violently, and the patrolling soldiers were blown away to the ground.
The Azure Dragon hovered in the sky, shouting menacingly, "Jingyi, get out here!"
A flash of white light appeared, and Jingyi landed on the rooftop opposite.
He looked up at the enormous azure dragon, his eyes flashing with anger: "Wei Xun, you actually came back!"
Hearing him call the Azure Dragon Guard Xun, Chu Yu's heart skipped a beat.
Wei Xun stormed into the Heavenly Palace in the form of a Azure Dragon, but what about his reincarnation, Fu Yunche? Is he dead?
Lu Xianqing already knew about Chu Yu and Fu Yunche's marriage. The King of Hell had previously told him that Fu Yunche's previous life was Qinglong Wei Xun, the former master of Youdu City.
Seeing Chu Yu's worried expression, he guessed that she was concerned about Fu Yunche, so he comforted her, "Junior sister, don't worry, let's see how things go first."
Chu Yu nodded helplessly. In the current situation, they could only take it one step at a time.
The Azure Dragon circled overhead, glaring angrily at Jing Yi. After scolding him, it went straight to the point: "Hand over Chu Yu. You harmed her terribly in her past life. Do you want to harm her again in this life?"
When Jingyi saw him asking him for Chu Yu, he was furious: "Whether it's Ning An or Chu Yu, they both belong to me. You despicable person who covets the Queen's sister-in-law, what right do you have to ask me for her?"
Wei Xun retorted sternly, "Neither Ning An nor Chu Yu belong to you. They belong only to themselves. You have no right to imprison them. In ancient times, you committed a grave mistake due to momentary greed, causing the destruction of the entire Heavenly Palace. You have been sealed away for so many years, yet you still do not repent and still want to cause trouble. This time, I will absolutely not show you any mercy."
He had previously spared him from direct execution out of brotherly affection, instead sealing him away. But unexpectedly, instead of being grateful, he harbored resentment and returned to wreak havoc, wanting to launch a war, destroy the peace of the Three Realms, and even imprison Chu Yu again. So, he would not let him go this time.
Jing Yi met his murderous gaze for a moment, then gave a mocking sneer: "I used to be Chu Jun of the Dragon Clan, your elder brother. Your strength was inferior to mine. Now, even though so many years have passed, do you think you can surpass me?"
