Upon receiving his order, the black-robed man joined his fists and replied with reverence, "As you command, Your Imperial Majesty!"
Once he had said his piece, he accepted his order and left. Once he had left, the entire palace returned to its usual cold and cheerless state. The Heavenly Moon Emperor stared coldly at the tightly shut palace doors as his thoughts were unreadable.
…
A gentle breeze brushed past in the tranquil forest. Qianbei Ye, who had been holding Gu Ruoyun in his arms, suddenly paused for some reason. His peerless features lit up with a smile.
"Yun 'er, do you think that the Regional King will let us go after we've dealt with Su Lin?"
Gu Ruoyun seemed to sense something as well and smiled calmly, "Everyone thinks that the Regional King is a reasonable man but I don't think so! If the Regional King is truly sensible, he would never hand over a daughter like Su Lin. Xiao Ye, don't you think I'm right? "
"That's right." Qianbei Ye nodded as he stared at the rustling tree branches. The smile on his face deepened as he said, "Since you're here, come out! There's no need to hide. "
Whoosh!
Just as Qianbei Ye had spoken, a subtle change appeared in the entire forest. Even the air around them seemed to have frozen over!
Then, several figures appeared in the void and surrounded the two of them.
The leader of the group was the Regional King. His handsome features no longer displayed his usual gentleness. Instead, there was a gloomy and strange air about him!
"As expected of the Underworld's Young Master, you were actually able to sense our presence!" The Regional King scoffed icily as his gaze, which was as sharp as a knife, landed upon Qianbei Ye. "Do you think that you can leave so easily after hurting my daughter?"
Qianbei Ye slowly turned around as a red light flashed in his bloodthirsty eyes. He smiled calmly as he said, "Even if you hadn't come, I wouldn't have let you off."
The reason was because of him. This man had an unclear motive towards Gu Ruoyun! Even if the Regional King has yet to discover his motive, he would never allow him to threaten Gu Ruoyun.
The Regional King would only nip this dangerous seed in the bud!
"Haha, if you were in the Underworld, I would never be a threat to you. Unfortunately, you did not bring any cultivators from the Underworld with you this time! You alone are still not my match! "
The Regional King burst into laughter. His smile was filled with mockery as he said, "Qianbei Ye, you're no longer the person who had swept the entire mainland ten thousand years ago. Otherwise, I'm afraid that no one in this world would dare to provoke you."
As soon as the Regional King had spoken, the surrounding temperature dropped. The man, who was dressed in red robes, stared coldly at the Regional King with bloodthirsty eyes. His gloomy voice was filled with a thick murderous intent.
"What's your relationship with that person?"
The others did not understand the meaning behind Qianbei Ye's words but to the Regional King, it was all too obvious.
However, he did not answer Qianbei Ye's question. Instead, he turned towards Gu Ruoyun, "Initially, I didn't want to fight you so soon! However, you have forced me to this state, so I have no choice but to step forward! Gu Ruoyun, if you want to die in one piece, hand over the Ancient Divine Pagoda! "
The Ancient Divine Pagoda?
Gu Ruoyun's eyes narrowed as a murderous intent flashed across her clear and cold gaze.
The Ancient Divine Pagoda was her greatest secret so how had the Regional King found out about its existence?
Could it be...
Suddenly, a possibility flashed across Gu Ruoyun's mind. Her eyes filled with seriousness as she asked, "Are you in cahoots with that fellow who had murdered Zixie?"
