Chapter 874: The Gentle Ruler 2
Ling snapped out of her surprise and said with relief, "You did it."
“However—” Rongxi turned her gaze to Yefei, her eyes filled with grief, “I didn’t even get to see her one last time, and you’re telling me she’s gone… What on earth is going on? She was so powerful, how could she…”
Ye Fei lowered her eyes, biting her lip slightly, without saying a word.
Seeing that Ye Fei's hands were clenched into fists and trembling slightly, Ling pursed her lips and said, "I can't tell you the reason yet. You just need to know that she is now the sole ruler of the demon realm."
Rongxi silently gazed at Yefei's profile.
From the moment he first saw the familiar dragon pattern between her eyebrows, the Holy Dragon Weeping Blood Spear, and the Myriad Beasts Diagram... he vaguely guessed what was going on.
In his heart, Chi Ye was an unparalleled ruler.
But the girl before him possessed an aura no less imposing than Chi Ye's...
The ice boat slowly entered a deep sea abyss, where a faint smell of blood lingered in the water.
Rongxi used his spiritual energy to freeze a small amount of seawater into ice, then brought the ice to his nose and sniffed it lightly, his eyes narrowing slightly: "It's the blood of the Deep Sea Emperor Jiao."
Perhaps she lost all five senses and, in her hazy state of consciousness, pierced the deep-sea emperor dragon with the Holy Dragon Blood-Weeping Spear... Ye Fei thought to herself.
At this moment, Ye Fei desperately hoped that the Deep Sea Emperor Jiao had been severely injured or killed by the Holy Dragon's Blood-Weeping Spear.
“We’ve arrived.” Rongxi stepped off the ice boat and turned his gaze to a dark cave ahead. “This is the lair of the Deep Sea Emperor Jiao.”
Ye Fei surveyed the area around the cave, finding almost no marine spirit beasts in the surrounding waters.
It was like a dead place, eerily silent.
"There are no other sea beasts here because they were all eaten by the Deep Sea Emperor Jiao." Rongxi noticed Ye Fei's surprise and explained, "It's a ferocious and violent creature. Any sea beasts that accidentally wandered in here have been devoured by it until there's nothing left."
Ye Fei stared expressionlessly at the cave in front of her.
The closer you get to the cave, the stronger the stench of blood becomes.
Moreover, they are standing right in front of its lair, without deliberately concealing their presence. Logically speaking, it should have sensed the intruders long ago.
But after waiting for a while, they still didn't see the Deep Sea Emperor Jiao emerge from the cave.
Ye Fei slightly raised her lips. It seemed her wish had come true—the Deep Sea Emperor Jiao was either dead or seriously injured.
Upon entering the cave, Ye Fei discovered that there was a path leading forward.
As she walked, she activated her wood spirit root, drawing nearby marine plants with her wood-type spiritual energy, which then spread along this path that led to an unknown destination.
After sensing for a while, Ye Fei noticed a faint movement coming from not far ahead—
They cautiously stepped forward, and what came into view was bloodstains all over the ground. The giant dragon lying on the ground looked dead and did not move at all.
Ye Fei tossed a glowing crystal near the Deep Sea Emperor Jiao, the light illuminating its entire body clearly.
Its deep blue body was covered in wounds, with a clear puncture wound on its abdomen from which blood oozed into the seawater.
Its head appears to have been eroded by something, and you can see the bare white bones showing!
