The Blood Demon King was a Sky Origin Realm expert, and with the Smoky Umbrella in his hand, he was like a tiger that had grown wings.
He shuttled through the pitch-black underground without making any sound or emitting any demonic power fluctuations.
Unless a Sky Origin Realm expert approached him, no one would be able to detect his aura.
Although there were many Sky Origin Realm experts in the Sky Bearing Sect, they were all attending the banquet in the Sky Bearing Palace. No one would have thought that someone would take the opportunity to invade.
Fifteen minutes later, the Blood Demon King dived into the depths of the underground and quietly used a demonic secret technique to place the Spirit Soul Crystal in the spirit vein array.
The Spirit Soul Crystal was hidden very well and had fused with the array's aura. It was impossible for anyone to discover it.
After doing all this, the Blood Demon King sneered and silently left the underground.
Thirty minutes later, he returned to the mountain peak fifty miles away from the Sky Bearing Sect and appeared beside the Blood Moon Infanta.
Seeing that he had returned safely, the Blood Moon Infanta hurriedly asked, "Father, did the plan go smoothly?"
"Of course it went smoothly." The Blood Demon King sneered confidently.
"I have already placed the Spirit Soul Crystal in the depths of the spirit vein array. After one month, the power of the spirit vein array will be exhausted."
"At that time, even if the people of the Sky Bearing Sect discover the abnormality, it will be too late to remedy it. We can take the opportunity to destroy the seal and rescue the Demon King! "
The Blood Moon Infanta's blood boiled and she clenched her fists in excitement. "Great! Father, we will succeed soon! "
"Yes." The Blood Demon King nodded and said, "However, it is still too early to be happy. I still need to make more preparations."
He warned the Blood Moon Infanta in a low voice, "Blood Moon, for the next few days, stay nearby and secretly pay attention to the Sky Bearing Sect's movements."
"If there is any news from the Sky Bearing Sect, you must immediately send a message to me. In addition, you must also pay attention to hiding. Don't be discovered by the people of the Sky Bearing Sect. "
"I understand!" The Blood Moon Infanta nodded solemnly and asked in confusion, "Father, what are you going to do? Aren't you coming with me? "
The Blood Demon King grinned and said in a playful tone, "I haven't been to the Ancient Star Realm for many years. Since I've returned, I must ensure that the plan goes smoothly."
"This King has an old friend in the Ancient Realm. It's time to go see her."
Hearing this, Blood Moon Infanta vaguely understood something. She nodded and didn't ask any more questions.
After that, the Blood Demon King left the Smoky Net Umbrella to her, turned into a black mist, and flew away.
She remained alone at the peak of the mountain, sitting on a millstone and silently watching the bright lights of the Sky Pillar Sect.
…
The noisy and bustling night with undercurrents finally came to an end.
The next morning, when the sun had just risen, there was still a faint layer of morning mist between the peaks of the Sky Bearing Sect.
The Jade Ripple Lake behind the Heaven Upholding Peak was also shrouded in a thin layer of mist, making it even more beautiful and mysterious than before.
The clear water rippled in the lake, and the willow trees swayed gently on the shore. Not far away from the spirit herb garden, there were still waves of fragrance from the plants. The scenery by the lake was really fresh and elegant.
At this time, a young man and woman were taking a stroll on the bluestone path under the willow trees by the lake.
The man was tall and handsome. He wore a brocade robe and a pair of gold-rimmed fire-walking boots. His long hair was tied up with a jade crown, making him look like an immortal.
There was no doubt that he was the Son of Heaven, Long Yunxiao.
The woman beside him was wearing a long white dress. She had an extremely beautiful appearance and a cold temperament. She was Yun Yao.
Yesterday, Long Yunxiao had arrived at the Sky Bearing Sect for the first time. He had to accept the visits of the various sect masters, so he naturally had to dress up. He wore a golden robe and a crown.
Today, he didn't plan to deal with sect matters. It was his private time, so he changed into casual clothes.
Even so, he was still extraordinarily handsome, and his temperament was noble and graceful.
The two strolled along the path by the lake. Although they were walking side by side, they maintained a distance of two steps between each other.
This distance was just right. It didn't appear to be close, but it wasn't too distant either. It was a normal distance between ordinary friends.
Long Yunxiao seemed to be in a good mood. He smiled and said in a gentle tone, "Yao Yao, I remember the first time I saw you was nine years ago."
"That was at Uncle Yun's 100th birthday banquet. That night, you were wearing the Water Moon Frozen Star Dress. Although you were still young, you were already a little beauty who suppressed the entire audience and stunned all the guests. "
"I didn't expect that nine years would pass in the blink of an eye. You've become a peerless beauty and the number one genius of the Tianchen Region … Time really flies."
As Long Yunxiao spoke, his eyes revealed a look of reminiscence. A smile also appeared on his handsome face.
Yun Yao was still as calm as usual. Her temperament was cold and she didn't have much of a reaction.
"Son of Heaven, you disturbed my sleep early in the morning and asked me to take a stroll by the lake. Are you trying to help me remember the past?"
"There's no need to mention those things of the past. You should just get to the point."
Long Yunxiao wasn't angry. Instead, a playful smile appeared on his face. "Yao Yao, I didn't expect that after staying in the Tianchen Region for a few years, your personality would change a little. You're not as cold as before."
He knew very well that Yun Yao's personality was even colder in the past. She wouldn't say so much to him.
Yun Yao frowned slightly but didn't say anything.
Long Yunxiao continued, "Yao Yao, I know that the reason why you left the Cloud Spirit Palace, left the Central State, and came to this remote Tianchen Region was to avoid me."
"But now, the Emperor and Mother are going to choose a concubine for me. They've chosen the three most outstanding candidates from the nine regions. Coincidentally, you're one of them."
"Yao Yao, don't you think that this is fate and our destiny?"
"Even if you ran to this remote Tianchen Region to avoid me, you still have to reunite with me in the end …"
After saying that, he looked at Yun Yao with a gentle gaze. His face was full of tenderness.
Yun Yao glanced at him and said indifferently, "You should know that I don't believe in fate. I only believe that man can conquer the heavens. Of course, my fate is in my control!"
"Also, I heard that the other two Heavenly Concubine candidates aren't bad either. In terms of looks, they're alluring beauties. In terms of talent, they're top geniuses. Why don't you consider them?"
A smile flashed across Long Yunxiao's eyes. He raised his eyebrows and said, "Yao Yao, can I interpret your words as jealousy?"
Yun Yao looked at him indifferently and said coldly, "You're thinking too much."
Long Yunxiao said to himself, "Yao Yao, you should know that from the first time I saw you, I've decided that you'll be my Heavenly Concubine."
"With such a beautiful woman like you, how could other women enter my eyes? Compared to you, they're all ordinary women. "
"I know that you don't want to be my Heavenly Concubine, but it doesn't matter. I won't force you to do something you don't want to."
