Gu Liyan looked at the smiling Nine Netherworld Emperor, unsure how to speak. It was as if her fate was entirely in the hands of the Nine Netherworld Emperor!
The Nine Netherworld Emperor squinted at Gu Liyan and smiled, saying, "You don't have to make a choice now, but naturally, you won't have much time..."
Gu Liyan frowned slightly, unsure of the meaning behind his words. Just as he was filled with doubt, he suddenly noticed that the surrounding aura had become strange—it was that familiar aura of death!
One by one, the undead race, exuding an aura of death, emerged from the ground and stood in neat rows behind the Nine Nether Heavenly Emperor.
Gu Yan stared at him in astonishment, "This is—an undead?!"
"The old fox still has some insight; he saw it at a glance!" The Nine Nether Heavenly Emperor said with a smile. "That's right. They are the Undead Clan I cultivated by collecting the souls of powerful individuals!"
Gu Yan frowned and shielded Gu Liyan with his body. He looked at the Nine Nether Heavenly Emperor with a wary expression, "To be able to use the power of the Undying Clan, you are no ordinary person. Who exactly are you?"
The Nine Netherworld Emperor's lips curled up. "Haven't you always had an answer about my identity in your heart?"
Gu Yan was shocked. "Could it be that you are...?"
Before Gu Yan could finish speaking, a scream came from not far away. He immediately frowned and coldly questioned, "What did you do?"
"It's nothing, just sending other undead to clear away the obstacles in this world!" the Nine Nether Heavenly Emperor said with a smile.
Before Gu Yan could even get angry, Gu Liyan stepped forward and said, "So the balance of this world was disrupted because of you!"
The Nine Netherworld Emperor laughed heartily, "You're only realizing this now? Isn't it a bit too late?"
Gu Liyan frowned and said, "I should have thought of this a long time ago. Although Ping'er brought me here, upon closer inspection, whether it's me, my father, or my martial uncle—we were all teleported here using the Reincarnation Compass."
Gu Liyan looked at the Nine Nether Heavenly Emperor with a serious expression. "So, we all came here for the same reason: to stop you—the Spirit of the Reincarnation Compass!"
The Nine Netherworld Emperor laughed and said, "That's right, this is the meaning of your presence here. But even if you all know this, so what? If one of you dies, everyone will die together! As long as I kill one of you, no one in this world can stop me from changing all of this!"
Gu Liyan was filled with doubt upon hearing the words of the Nine Nether Heavenly Emperor. What exactly did he want to change?
Gu Liyan thought: If Gu Yan died, then she wouldn't be born. If she wasn't born, Mo Chen wouldn't have a chance to live. At that time...
Gu Liyan suddenly remembered something. If one could die in this battle, wouldn't the only one be Uncle Gu Li? Come to think of it, wasn't it during this period that he disappeared without a trace?
Gu Liyan's face immediately broke out in a cold sweat. He tugged at Gu Yan's sleeve and said urgently, "Father, don't worry about him. Let's go help Uncle and the others!"
Seeing that Gu Liyan's expression was not right, Gu Yan was also worried about Gu Li, so he nodded and said, "Okay. We'll go there right away."
He turned his head and looked warily at the smiling Emperor Jiuyou, but the latter had no intention of stopping him. Instead, he smiled and said, "Don't worry, I won't stop you two. If I were to make a move now, wouldn't that be... too boring?"
Gu Liyan and Gu Yan stopped arguing with the Nine Netherworld Emperor and slowly stepped back a few steps before turning and running towards Mo Bai and the others.
Watching the backs of the father and son, the Nine Netherworld Emperor sneered, "No one can stop me, for I am now called... Destiny!"
Seeing that the Nine Nether Heavenly Emperor hadn't pursued them, Gu Yan frowned. "I never expected that the Reincarnation Compass would actually become sentient! I should have known better than to bring it into this world!"
Gu Liyan pursed his lips without saying anything, his mind preoccupied with Gu Li's safety...
The two ran wildly until they finally saw the battle ahead, only to discover that the people fighting with Mo Bai and the others were not the Undead, but the Demons!
Mo Bai turned around and kicked the demon who was about to ambush him from behind, knocking him to the ground. He then used his gleaming silver sword to pierce the demon's chest.
Out of the corner of his eye, Mo Bai saw Gu Liyan and Gu Yan running towards them and shouted urgently, "Come quickly and help kill these demons!"
Without a word, Gu Yan charged into the crowd. With a wave of his hand, clouds and mist rose within the area. As soon as the Cloud Domain appeared, the demon race's momentum surged, and they gradually gained the upper hand instead of being at a disadvantage.
Once the ancient Cloud Domain is activated, it greatly affects the vision of the demon race, but it is extremely beneficial to the monster race. This is tantamount to blinding the demons who are active at night!
The demons were caught off guard by the sudden cloud domain and suffered repeated defeats.
Gu Liyan was about to step forward to help when he suddenly saw a familiar figure in the crowd. Without saying a word, he rushed over.
Yan Muxue lost her way in the mist, but she did not let her guard down. She circled around, looking around warily. Just then, a figure suddenly leaped up from behind, wielding a heavy hammer and slashing down at Yan Muxue.
Unbeknownst to Yan Muxue, she suddenly heard a familiar voice call out, "Xue'er, be careful!"
Yan Muxue's heart tightened as she sensed danger behind her. She immediately bent down, turned around, raised her sword, and stabbed the little demon who had ambushed her, killing her on the spot.
Gu Liyan came to Yan Moxue's side and breathed a sigh of relief when he saw that she was safe and sound.
Yan Muxue then turned to look at Gu Liyan. Seeing his stunningly beautiful face and familiar gaze, she recognized him at a glance.
"Little..." Just as Yan Muxue was about to call out his name, she suddenly drew her sword and thrust it towards Gu Liyan.
