"Heh, trapped in the Nine Netherworld, what do you think I can do?" the Nine Netherworld Emperor mocked. "I merely gave those fools of the demon race a little hope."
Gu Liyan's face was gloomy. "Back then, my senior brother and I were teleported to the Heavenly Palace by you due to improper operation. Then, by some twist of fate, I obtained the inexhaustible life energy, and Xiao Bai accidentally triggered the birth of the death energy. Is all of this related to you?"
The Nine Netherworld Emperor remained silent and did not speak.
Gu Liyan shouted impatiently, "Speak! Speak quickly!"

...Just as they were about to go out to find Gu Liyan's ancient calendar, they suddenly received a report.
"It's terrible, strategist! The water has risen outside! We're trapped!"
"What?"
Upon hearing the report from the little demon, Gu Li looked down and saw water already flowing into his feet. His face immediately turned grim, and he hurriedly spoke.
"Send men immediately to dig a canal and find another outlet! Hurry!"
