Wang Baole fell silent. Memories of what had happened on the battlefield surfaced in his mind. His senior brother, Chen Qing, could have told him the truth right from the start.
But even if he didn't, Wang Baole didn't hold any grudges. After all, this was related to the Underworld Sect. His senior brother was right to be safe.
Besides, he was the one who had obtained the opportunity. Although there was a risk of being exposed, it was inevitable. Unless he didn't go over, it would be difficult to continue hiding.
And from the beginning to the end, his senior brother had been very protective of him. Even before he left, he had arranged for him to stand behind his true body.
No matter how he looked at it, there was no problem. But for some reason, Wang Baole had a strange feeling. The senior brother in front of him was different from the him in his memories.
Wang Baole didn't know exactly what caused him to have such thoughts. He could only conclude that … perhaps it was the fusion and revival of the Heavenly Dao that made his senior brother seem more dignified and less emotional.
"Maybe it's a comparison." Wang Baole thought of Lieyan Laozu. Everything about his master was real. He could see and feel it clearly. On the other hand, his senior brother … seemed a little ethereal.
But no matter what, Wang Baole never doubted his senior brother Chen Qing. He still trusted him because he thought of everything that had happened to him in the Federation. After a while, Wang Baole came to a decision. He turned and looked at Lieyan Laozu.
Lieyan Laozu wanted to say something but stopped.
"Master," Wang Baole said softly. He didn't cup his fists. Instead, he knelt and kowtowed.
He didn't say much, but Lieyan Laozu understood. After a moment of silence, he sighed.
"Remember what I told you. The Inferno Galaxy is your escape route."
Wang Baole nodded. He couldn't stay in the Inferno Galaxy. If he did, his master would be dragged into the matter between the Underworld Sect and the Never-Ending Clan. This wasn't what he wanted.
Moreover, he had the mark of the Dark Sect on him. As a Dark Child, there was a great karmic connection between him and the Dark Sect that could not be severed. He understood that he could not stay out of this.
And … Wang Baole wanted to become stronger!
If he stayed in the Raging Flame Galaxy, he would lose the opportunity to become stronger. Since there was not much time left, the bloody centipede could appear at any time. Wang Baole had to take the risk.
For all these reasons, Wang Baole made up his mind. He rose to his feet and glanced at the cautious Xie Haiyang. Then, he suddenly turned to Chen Qing and spoke.
"Senior Brother, Divine Emperor Moon Splitting Divine Emperor's Formation Furnace was forged by the Xie Clan. Can we just forget about this matter?"
Chen Qing smiled when he heard this. He glanced at Xie Haiyang, who was obviously excited and nervous after hearing Wang Baole's words, and nodded.
"The Xie Clan has nothing to do with this matter."
As soon as he said this, Xie Haiyang seemed to lose all strength. He forced himself to bow deeply to Wang Baole and Chen Qing. His heart was filled with emotion. In fact, when he had followed Wang Baole, he hadn't imagined that Chen Qing would set up such a grand scheme and become the Heavenly Dao himself.
Even the Xie Clan had to be careful when dealing with such a powerhouse. It was very likely that they would voluntarily abandon his father's bloodline. After all, with the current situation, no one was willing to participate in the war between the Underworld Sect and the Never-Ending Clan.
"Little Junior Brother, let's go," Chen Qing said with a smile after resolving the matter.
Wang Baole turned and bowed again to Grandmaster Inferno Laozu. Then, he stepped off the Divine Bull and stepped through the sea of fire as he walked toward Chen Qing. Inferno Laozu felt a little depressed as he watched his disciple slowly leave. He didn't know why, but at that moment, he thought of his other disciples who had perished.
He had a grudge against the Never-Ending Clan, but he didn't have the power to exact revenge. He was only cursed, and that was more of a deterrent than a practical one. He wanted to risk everything and go all out. Even if he died, he wanted to bury a Divine Emperor with him.
But … he still had many things holding him back. Once, the only thing holding him back was his only surviving second disciple. Now … Wang Baole was his second disciple.
Therefore, he wanted to stay by Wang Baole's side and protect him. If this disciple insisted on joining the Underworld Sect, he might as well help him and risk his life in exchange for a Divine Emperor.
But he could see that Wang Baole didn't want to do that.
In the silence, Inferno Laozu looked at Wang Baole beside Chen Qing and suddenly transmitted his voice to Chen Qing.
"He really does see you as an elder brother. So … Chen Qing, no matter what your plan is, no matter what your goal is, if you want to sacrifice my disciple, then I can't do anything to you. But you can risk your face and infuse your curses with the Never-Ending Heavenly Dao to strengthen it!"
Wang Baole couldn't hear those words, but he saw his senior brother, Chen Qing, stop in his tracks.
"I do see Junior Brother as my only family. Chen Qing lives up to his reputation." Chen Qing whispered to Inferno Laozu. Then, he smiled at Wang Baole and waved his sleeve. Instantly, a black fog spread out and formed a huge black fish. It roared noiselessly at the stars. Then, with a leap, it took Wang Baole into the void and disappeared.
After a long time, Inferno Laozu looked away. He looked downcast and unhappy, as if he had aged a lot in an instant.
Beside him, Xie Haiyang saw Inferno Laozu's reaction. After a moment of thought, he spoke in a low voice.
"Ancestor, Martial Uncle Baole may have left, but I'm still here …"
"You?" Inferno Laozu glanced at him and snorted.
"Noisy!" With a wave of his right hand, the sacred bull beneath him roared and charged forward. It was still headed for the Inferno Galaxy. Xie Haiyang, on the back of the sacred bull, felt wronged.
As Inferno Laozu's figure gradually disappeared into the stars, Wang Baole and Chen Qing also disappeared into the void, and the cultivators of the Wanzong Clan dispersed and returned to their respective territories. Only then did the battle between God Emperors come to an end. At the same time, the details of the battle spread.
The Underworld Sect's Heavenly Dao had been revived in Chen Qing. Chen Qing … was the Underworld Sect's Heavenly Dao.
This matter spread like wildfire throughout the entire Never-Ending Dao Domain at an extremely fast speed, causing almost all the clans and sects to feel uneasy. Among them, those who did not know about the Underworld Sect also quickly investigated the matter. As for those who did know about the Underworld Sect, endless worry rose in their hearts.
It was almost as if a storm were brewing. Most of the sects and clans had activated their isolation spell formations, and were unwilling to get involved. That was because … everyone was deeply shaken by the outcome of the battle.
Lie Yue had fallen, Di Shan had lost his Dao Body, and Light and Profound Flower couldn't do anything to Chen Qing. Among the five God Emperors of the Never-Ending Clan, only the most mysterious Never-Ending Primordial Laozu was a threat to Chen Qing.
The most mysterious Laozu hadn't shown his true form for many years. The one guarding him was only a corpse. His Dao name was Kiga, and he represented Laozu to the outside world.
As a result, the entire Never-Ending Dao Domain fell into silence, like the calm before the storm …
At the same time, in the void, the Heavenly Dao Fish that Chen Qing had transformed into was half-real and half-illusory. It led Wang Baole forward, not to the three Holy Domains in the starry sky, but … to the void. It kept sinking, sinking, and sinking …
If the starry sky was compared to a piece of paper, everything on the paper, including the starry sky and the three Holy Domains, and below the paper … was the Abyss and the Nine Hells.
At this moment, the Heavenly Dao Fish that Chen Qing had transformed into was leading Wang Baole into the depths of the Abyss and the Nine Hells …
Gradually, they approached … the place where the survivors of the Underworld Sect had rested for so many years!
The Nether Galaxy!
