Zhou Xingdou stared at the ominous void before him, a bead of cold sweat sliding down his forehead. Had he been even a fraction slower, he would have been swallowed by that black light, and the consequences would have been unimaginable!
Since his rebirth, this was the first time he had felt a sense of crisis. The terror and ominousness of that black light far exceeded Zhou Xingdou's imagination.
It could even be said that the threat posed by Lin Fan, the chosen one, is insignificant compared to this ominous black light.
This left Stephen Chow feeling unsettled; it was the first time he had ever faced something that made him feel so powerless.
Even when facing the Flame Emperor, he was fearless, because he knew that the Flame Emperor dared not and could not touch him.
But this ominous black light chilled him to the bone, because it seemed that nothing could stop it, and even Tian Jiu'er was too late to save him!
Zhou Xingdou breathed a sigh of relief, still shaken, and looked at Princess Iron Fan. Princess Iron Fan, staring at the dark void, also looked astonished and said in a low voice:
"Master, this place is not safe to stay any longer!"
Zhou Xingdou did not refute, as this was no longer something he could control, and it would be better to report it to the Xuantian Dao Sect.
Just as Zhou Xingdou left, a terrifying figure emanating from the Dao appeared where Zhou Xingdou had just been.
It was none other than Xuanjizi, the sect leader of the Xuantian Dao Sect!
However, his face no longer wore the gentle and kind smile he usually had; instead, it was filled with endless solemnity and coldness.
Xuanjizi casually unleashed a beam of immortal light, shattering the ominous aura in the area and recreating the interplay of earth, water, wind, and fire, causing the laws of heaven and earth to clash.
After restoring everything to its original state, he sighed and said:
"A great calamity is about to befall us!"
After returning to Jiuxuan Peak and sending Princess Iron Fan back to Qingxin Palace, Zhou Xingdou went straight into Jiuxuan Palace and rushed into Tian Jiu'er's residence.
Pushing open the door, Tian Jiu'er's peerless figure was revealed. She still sat regally on the platform, as beautiful and awe-inspiring as a goddess from the heavens, her beauty and elegance surpassing all others.
It is so beautiful that it transcends all words and is beyond description.
Tian Jiu'er slowly opened her beautiful eyes, which were as bright as stars and the moon. Faintly, the phantom of the Great Dao flashed by, and a clear and ethereal celestial sound rang out:
Your heart is afraid!
This celestial music was like light piercing through the darkness, dispelling the gloom that had enveloped Zhou Xingdou's heart after encountering the ominous black light.
Zhou Xingdou then realized that he was sweating profusely, and his once indifferent and noble face had long since lost its hopeful indifference.
He exhaled a deep breath of stale air, which was mixed with wisps of black smoke. But the exhalation of this breath made him feel relaxed and calm.
The wisps of black energy that were exhaled were instantly obliterated by the extremely dense and supreme sword intent present.
Even so, Zhou Xingdou's expression was still not good, because he had no idea that such a change had occurred in his body, nor did he realize that the black energy had invaded his body.
Zhou Xingdou calmed himself down and looked at Tian Jiu'er, asking:
"You already knew?"
Tian Jiu'er nodded slightly, and then the celestial music began again:
“I know you have many questions, but you don’t need to delve into them. I will guarantee that it will not appear again within the territory of the Xuantian Dao Sect.”
How could Zhou Xingdou not investigate further? This thing was no ordinary object; its threat was so great that even he felt terrified. How could he easily give up asking questions?
"What exactly is that?!"
Tian Jiu'er's beautiful and dazzling starry eyes flickered slightly, and her ethereal voice became solemn:
"An existence that is unknowable, ineffable, and indescribable is called an ancient god by his followers!"
Zhou Xingdou frowned. His words seemed to say something, but in reality, he said nothing at all. He then asked:
"Are all those sacred places its followers?"
This time, Tian Jiu'er didn't speak in riddles again, and slowly said:
"Yes, he is also a traitor to the Primordial Realm."
Zhou Xingdou's aura hardened, and he asked again:
"Could it also be related to extraterrestrial demons?"
A hint of surprise flashed in Tian Jiu'er's bright, starry eyes, as if she hadn't expected Zhou Xingdou to make such a far-reaching connection.
But she did not refute it, and said softly:
"yes."
Zhou Xingdou was speechless for a moment and stopped asking Tian Jiu'er questions.
Knowing about someone of unknown origin wouldn't bring him much benefit, and Tian Jiu'er wouldn't harm him; it's impossible for her to conceal it.
I never expected that just scheming against Lin Fan would lead to so many things happening and so many changes.
It seems that the value of being chosen by destiny should not be underestimated, and one should be more cautious as the final moments approach.
It has to be said that if Zhou Xingdou were someone else, he would have died countless times over today, given Lin Fan's use of the jade pendant.
Even Zhou Xingdou was almost swallowed by that ominous black light.
Zhou Xingdou decided not to dwell on the matter of the black light any longer, as it was something he couldn't investigate at the moment. He should focus on the present matter first.
Thinking of the fatigue Zhou Xingdou showed, he staggered to Tian Jiu'er's platform, sat down on the ground, and rested his head on Tian Jiu'er's perfect thighs.
For some reason, a sense of security enveloped him. Even though he was sitting half-on the ground, he didn't feel the coldness of the floor; instead, he felt warm and comfortable all over.
This feeling made Stephen Chow lower all his defenses, and a feeling of exhaustion, like the sea, surged through him.
He had forgotten how long it had been since he had slept, and even when he was making love with a woman, he never dared to rest for even a moment.
But now he just wants to sleep for a while, even if it's only for a short time.
This also made him afraid that Tian Jiu'er would push him away, and he murmured in his half-awake state:
"Let me lean on it for a while, just for a little while."
Tian Jiu'er looked at Zhou Xingdou, who was fast asleep leaning against her lap, and her cool smile melted away like an iceberg, revealing a faint smile that surpassed all beautiful things.
Her bright, starry eyes revealed an indescribable emotion. Her jade-like hand gently stroked Zhou Xingdou's face as she softly said:
"With me here, you can get a good night's sleep."
...
Two flowers bloom, each representing a different branch.
Lin Fan naturally didn't receive the same treatment as Zhou Xingdou; activating the Great Teleportation Seal wasn't without its costs.
Even with his Enlightenment Realm strength, and even with the protection of the talisman power, crossing the void still made him face a near-death experience.
He is currently in an inn in a remote town in Tianxuan Holy State. Because it is remote enough and the Great Teleportation Talisman has erased the traces, he doesn't have to worry about being found.
This was an inn he had rented long ago, so that he would have a place to stay if he encountered a situation like today.
The reason for not setting the relocation site as Lin's residence was naturally for Yun Jinzhi's safety.
After all, apart from someone with a powerful background like Stephen Chow, who would bring their enemies home? Do they want to be wiped out and have their whole family killed?
Moreover, returning to the Lin residence would be too foolish. Even if others investigate her home, as long as she is not caught, Yun Jinzhi will at least be safe for the time being.
As long as one is alive, there is always a chance to make a comeback, to rescue or seek revenge.
But if I die, then everything will be over, and I'll be completely finished.
