However, for some reason, she always felt a strangely familiar aura emanating from the outside of that box.
"Oh…"
After a moment of distraction, Li Qingyi shook her head and chuckled, then composed herself and stopped thinking about it.
All these years, he hasn't come to Jiuyou to see her even once. He must really hate her now.
In Li Qingyi's mind, over the years she had wandered in the Nine Netherworlds and encountered so many demons, Ming Huashang must have known about her existence long ago, as he was very familiar with things there.
Knowing full well of her existence, yet unwilling to see her, the only possibility is that Ming Huashang no longer loves her and even hates her, so much so that he doesn't even want to look at her.
She was indeed ruthless back then, siding solely with the gods, which was very unfair to him and tantamount to betrayal.
But she always thought that since he loved her, he should be considerate of her and should not act so recklessly. She believed that he could work with her to find a way out.
But it turned out she was overthinking it; the demon ultimately doesn't understand love, and killing and tyranny are his true nature.
That's what Li Qingyi thought, but she didn't know that although almost everyone in the Nine Netherworld knew of his existence, only Ming Huashang was unaware of it.
Previously, Ming Huashang had been sealed away. After being released with great difficulty, he avoided this place of sorrow as much as possible. In addition, Li Qingyi had become a taboo subject that the entire Nine Nether Demon Clan kept silent about. Thus, the two of them missed each other.
"Boom boom boom..."
However, to Li Qingyi's surprise, shortly after they arrived, the doors of the Void Box opened automatically, and countless primordial demonic energies surged out from the Nine Netherworlds.
"Bring her inside!"
If the Night King hadn't protected her in time, she would have been swept away.
"Nine Nether Mysterious Sword!"
But it was at this moment that Li Qingyi heard the familiar voice she had been longing for day and night.
"Ah Shang... um..."
Li Qingyi's eyes widened, and she murmured something. Just as she was about to check what was going on, her vocal cords were covered.
"Mmm..."
Unable to make a sound, and held tightly by someone, Li Qingyi struggled incessantly. She couldn't be mistaken; it was Ah Shang's voice!
"Don't waste your energy!"
The Night King hadn't expected to encounter such a situation. He quickly led the person to the Netherworld, avoiding the primordial demonic energy, before saying, "That's Ming Hua Shang outside, you probably don't know, but a new round of the war between gods and demons has begun, and it's almost coming to an end."
"Mmm..."
Upon hearing the news, Li Qingyi was first stunned, then struggled to look at the Night King, her eyes full of pleading.
She didn't want it. She didn't want the two people she loved most to fight each other to the death like this anymore. Besides, she really missed Ming Huashang and wanted to see him again.
Li Qingyi realized that she had been deceiving herself all along. Over the years, she thought she had let go and her heart was at peace. But at this moment, when she knew that her beloved was just a stone's throw away, all her restraint disappeared.
Tears streamed down her face. She missed him, she really missed him so much… Even though he might hate her now, she still missed him so much…
"Don't worry, you will meet."
Facing Li Qingyi like this, the Night King remained calm and unmoved, saying, "You will meet again soon."
"Mmm..."
Upon hearing this, a look of surprise lit up Li Qingyi's eyes, but it quickly turned into confusion.
