Xu Mizi knew that Hou Tu was in Heaven at that moment, a powerful being at the level of Heavenly Emperor. Compared to her, his own strength was vastly different. If he rashly went there, he would undoubtedly be courting death. Therefore, he dared not act rashly and could only politely decline.
He lowered his head and pondered for a moment, then slowly said, "This matter is of great importance and cannot be taken lightly. I will go and test Daozu's attitude first. You will all stay in the Thirty-Third Heaven for the time being and do not act rashly."
Although Xuanyuan and others were helpless, they had no choice but to stay for the time being, eagerly waiting for Hongjun's summons. At the same time, they were looking forward to the early return of Taiqing Laozi, Yuanshi Tianzun and others.
At the same time, Yu Kai had already arrived at a garden in the Heavenly Palace, where the Jade Emperor, Emperor Shi, Hou Tu and others were gathered.
"You recovered so quickly?" There was a hint of surprise in Emperor Shi's eyes. He really didn't expect that Yu Kai's recovery ability was so amazing. He was seriously injured and on the verge of death before, but he could recover as before in such a short time.
"Recovered!" Yu Kai respectfully saluted everyone one by one.
Then, he looked firm and determined, and said, "Your Majesty, I beg you to help find the whereabouts of the Qiankun Soul Gathering Furnace and the Golden Hoop Immortal!" At this moment, the flame of revenge in Yu Kai's heart was already burning.
Upon hearing this, the Jade Emperor, without a moment's hesitation, immediately drew out the Haotian Mirror and began to concentrate on deducing. A faint glow shone from the surface of the Haotian Mirror, flickering and pulsing, as if exploring the secrets of heaven and earth. As the light shifted, the scene gradually focused on the South China Sea. Suddenly, a massive cauldron roared out like a wild horse, and from within it came the faint cry of a baby, a sound that stood out against the silence.
Yu Kai’s eyes widened instantly, his face full of nervousness, and he thought to himself: Could this be my child?
Just as everyone was startled by the sudden crying of a baby, a shiny black chain, like a ferocious black dragon, brought with it a terrifying pressure, accompanied by a sharp and piercing whistle, and lashed towards the alchemy furnace like lightning.
"Boom!" A resounding explosion, like the earth collapsing and the sky splitting apart, shook the surrounding space violently. The chain slammed heavily onto the Qiankun Spirit Gathering Furnace, its immense force sending it flying like a cannonball. The Qiankun Spirit Gathering Furnace, harnessing this immense force, swiftly swooped into a crack in the void, vanishing without a trace in the blink of an eye.
Instantly, Yu Kai's murderous intent surged to the sky like a surging tide, instantly enveloping the entire Heavenly Court with a chilling chill. Everyone present felt as if they had been plunged into an ice cellar, a chill running through their hearts, and the weaker ones couldn't help but tremble.
Even Emperor Shi, who was familiar with Yu Kai, couldn't help but be shocked. He had never felt such a terrible and strong murderous intent from Yu Kai. This murderous intent seemed to be filled with endless grief and hatred.
In the image, a middle-aged man in a black robe, his face sinister and fierce, like a demon emerging from the dark abyss. Holding a Heaven-Locking Rope, he swooped down from afar like a ghost, landing in a flash of lightning where the Qiankun Spirit Gathering Furnace had vanished. His gaze, sharp as a hawk's, swiftly scanned the surroundings. After a careful survey, a sinister expression crossed his face, and he vanished into thin air like a wisp of black smoke.
The images in the Haotian Mirror kept changing. The Jade Emperor used all his strength to activate it, but he could no longer find any trace of the middle-aged man in black robes. The Jade Emperor frowned and injected a huge amount of spiritual power into the Haotian Mirror again, trying to find his whereabouts. However, the alchemy furnace and the middle-aged man in black robes seemed to have evaporated from the face of the earth, and there was still no trace of them.
In the end, the Jade Emperor reluctantly and slowly took back the Haotian Mirror, showing a look of regret and shaking his head slightly.
Yu Kai was struck by lightning, and stood there in a daze. It took him a long time to come back to his senses. He asked with a trembling voice, "Your Majesty, is that the Golden Hoop Immortal?"
"Yes, I never thought that he had been hiding in the South China Sea for so many years!" The Jade Emperor looked solemn and nodded slowly to confirm.
"Brother, what's wrong with the baby?" Lin Niuniu asked anxiously with a serious face.
Murong Shuang, Yin Ziling and Ao Ling also turned their gazes towards Yu Kai, their eyes full of confusion.
"That can't be your child with Liu Ling, right?" Emperor Shi moved closer to Yu Kai, lowered his voice, and whispered in his ear.
"Ah! Yu Kai, you already have a child!" Yin Ziling widened her eyes in surprise and couldn't help but blurt out.
When the girls heard this, they felt a little disappointed, but seeing Yu Kai's sad face, they didn't dare to get angry.
Yu Kai nodded slightly, a look of determination flashed in his eyes, and he said word by word: "I'm going to kill him and avenge Liu Ling!" As soon as he finished speaking, the terrible murderous intent burst out again like a volcanic eruption.
After saying this, he flashed and turned into a stream of light, flying towards the South China Sea. The women did not dare to neglect him and chased after him.
"The Golden Hoop Immortal has been famous for a long time and has been practicing for so many years. I'm afraid he will be difficult to deal with!" The Jade Emperor looked at Emperor Shi and Hou Tu with worry in his eyes.
"I will send a message to my elder brother and the others, asking them to go to the South China Sea!" Hou Tu said, and immediately pinched the jade seal to send the message.
"The Golden Hoop Immortal is Tongtian's disciple. Now the Jiejiao sect is declining in number, so I'll go there!" Emperor Shi straightened up with a determined look.
"Okay!" Hou Tu nodded and handed over a piece of luminous jade. "The Golden Hoop Immortal's whereabouts are elusive. I just imprinted his aura. Have Yu Kai search for him with this jade. He should be able to find him quickly."
"Okay!" The Devouring Emperor rolled up the spiritual jade and flew out in an instant.
Watching them leave, Hou Tu turned to the Jade Emperor and said, "We have explained almost everything. You can go into seclusion. I will stay here to protect you!"
The Jade Emperor immediately bowed in thanks, nodded to the Queen Mother, and then flew towards his place of retreat.
In the Thirty-Third Heaven, Zhang Qiming recovered his vitality with the help of the numerous elixirs in Hongjun's treasury. He quietly left his retreat and, without alerting anyone, rushed out of the Thirty-Third Heaven like a ghost, unaware even of Jie Yin and Zhunti, who were stationed outside.
He carefully sneaked towards Asia's base. With his superb hiding skills, he cleverly broke through the strict detection, quietly avoided all checkpoints, and successfully arrived at Hachioji Zhuzhi's lounge.
The Eighth Prince was sitting on the sofa, lost in thought, his right hand tapping the armrest subconsciously. He had just received the latest news from the temple: the Overlord had passed away, and the entire Spiritual Machinery Immortal Realm was immersed in grief, with everyone rushing to the funeral.
In order to fight for the throne of dominance, the five great elders of the temple hurried back from all over the world to work together to prevent the father emperor from taking the throne. A fierce internal conflict broke out between the two sides. Although the father emperor was wearing high-level body armor of the celestial master, he was still unable to withstand the combined power of the five great elders.
