In the land of Hua Xia, there was a secret place among the mountains.
This was a branch palace hall of the Huatian Palace in the main space. It was a hidden sect in charge of the surrounding area.
A middle-aged man was carrying a young lady with a dark complexion. He flew through the mountains quickly. His footsteps were light and the mountain path was like flat ground. He was obviously a practitioner of ancient martial arts.
Very quickly, the middle-aged man arrived at the main door of the branch palace hall with the young lady on his back.
"Who are you?"
In the branch palace hall, an Executor guarding the door walked forward and scanned Wang Yuan from head to toe. Usually, people who came here were ancient martial arts practitioners. However, the cultivation of the person in front of him was too low! Qi Hai Realm? Why would such a person come to the Huatian Palace branch palace hall?
As an executive branch palace hall of the Huatian Palace, ancient martial arts practitioners would occasionally come here. However, those who came here were usually the upper echelons of the various large sects. They were either sect leaders or elders. It was the first time they had seen someone with such low cultivation.
"I am looking for the chief executor of your branch palace hall."
Wang Yuan panted. Flying between the mountains for a long time was really too much for an ancient martial arts practitioner with his cultivation.
"Looking for our chief executor? Why are you looking for our chief executor?" A Huatian Palace Executor frowned. An ancient martial arts practitioner with such low cultivation actually wanted to look for their chief executor! It was not that they looked down on Wang Yuan, but the ancient martial arts world had always been a world where the strong ruled. Those with low cultivation had no right to speak.
"Your chief executor, Dongfang Yi, is an old friend of mine. I hope that you two brothers can help me inform him," Wang Yuan said politely.
He naturally knew that his cultivation was low and he had no status in the ancient martial arts world where the strong ruled. Now, he was anxious to save his daughter. Whether he could find Dongfang Yi was another matter. He naturally did not dare to offend these two Huatian Palace Executors.
"Then, please wait."
The two Huatian Palace Executors saw that Wang Yuan was so polite and their expressions softened. Hearing him mention their chief executor's name, they did not dare to delay and turned to walk into the branch palace hall.
Wang Yuan's eyes lit up. From the expressions of the gatekeeping Executors, he could tell that Dongfang Yi was indeed here.
Fifteen minutes later, in a quaint room.
Dongfang Yi sat behind a study table. He was over forty years old and there were some signs of aging on his face but one could still see the handsomeness of his youth.
"Wang Yuan, it has been more than ten years since we last met." Dongfang Yi looked at Wang Yuan and smiled.
"Big Brother Dongfang, I've come to disturb you this time because of my daughter …" Wang Yuan's eyes were filled with sorrow. He could sense that his daughter's body was like a funnel and her life force was ceaselessly flowing away. It wouldn't be long before her life force would dry up and she would die.
Moreover, over the past few days, the strange energy in his daughter's body had already invaded his body. If he couldn't find a solution, his and his daughter's lives would most likely end here.
As an ancient martial art practitioner, Wang Yuan naturally knew that what was harming his daughter's body was not some disease, but a rather strange and evil energy. That energy was pervasive and almost impossible to defend against. Moreover, it could constantly devour the vitality of living beings to slowly strengthen itself. As time passed, it would become more and more difficult to deal with, more and more terrifying, and finally die of exhaustion.
"Oh?"
Dongfang Yi stood up and walked in front of Wang Shuyi. Naturally, he had already observed Wang Shuyi's situation. However, the moment his hand touched Wang Shuyi, his entire body trembled violently. His expression changed greatly and he retracted his hand at lightning speed.
"Absolute Evil Qi," Dongfang Yi gasped and looked at Wang Shuyi without saying a word.
"Big Brother Dongfang?"
Wang Yuan stood up. He didn't expect Dongfang Yi's reaction to be so huge. Absolute Evil Qi? That strange energy was called Absolute Evil Qi?
"Brother Wang Yuan, I am helpless against the Absolute Evil Qi," Dongfang Yi laughed bitterly.
Huatian Palace controlled the world and naturally knew about the Grim Reaper's Terminal Illness that was causing a ruckus in the main space recently. However, the people of Huatian Palace did not call it the Grim Reaper's Terminal Illness but the Absolute Evil Qi.
Dongfang Yi didn't know much about the Absolute Evil Qi. He only knew that this thing was very terrifying and definitely not to be trifled with. There was even a rumor circulating in Huatian Palace that the Absolute Evil Qi came from an extremely strange place in the Myriad Realms and it was a huge secret in the Myriad Realms.
In short, no matter what the rumor was, to Dongfang Yi, the Absolute Evil Qi was definitely not something that he could trifled with. The saying that one would die upon contact was definitely not a lie. Even if the Absolute Evil Qi in Wang Shuyi's body was very little, it was still far from what he could trifled with.
Wang Yuan's eyes were a little dazed as he looked at his daughter and then at Dongfang Yi. He never dreamed that even Dongfang Yi would be helpless. Among the experts that he knew, Dongfang Yi was definitely an existence of the highest level. Not only was he the chief executor of a branch palace hall of Huatian Palace, he was also an ancient martial art practitioner in the Golden Elixir realm.
The Golden Elixir realm was a legendary existence. Could it be that even such an expert could not save his daughter?
"Brother Wang Yuan, are you also infected with the Absolute Evil Qi?"
Dongfang Yi looked at Wang Yuan and sighed slightly in his heart. When he entered the door just now, Wang Yuan had been hugging his daughter. Even he could not withstand such prolonged contact, not to mention an ancient martial art practitioner of Wang Yuan's level.
Once the Absolute Evil Qi invaded the body, it would be like maggots in the bones and could not be expelled no matter what. Moreover, this kind of evil Qi could continuously devour the vitality of the body and slowly grow stronger. In the end, the host would usually die due to the loss of vitality. Hence, no matter how little the Absolute Evil Qi invaded the body, as long as it successfully parasitized the body, it would almost be equivalent to a death sentence.
"Big Brother Dongfang, is there no other way?" Wang Yuan hugged his daughter with a face of despair. Even though he knew that the Absolute Evil Qi in his daughter's body would invade his body and speed up his death, he still hugged her tightly.
Dongfang Yi sighed helplessly. If it was an ordinary injury, no matter how serious the injury was, he would have a way to treat it. Even if he could not treat it, he could also ask his friends in Huatian Palace for help. However, the Absolute Evil Qi was different. This kind of thing was something that even the true upper echelons in Huatian Palace were extremely secretive about. It was said that when the veterans of the Senate talked about the Absolute Evil Qi, their expressions would change.
Actually, the Absolute Evil Qi scourging the mortal world was only a small-scale disaster. The real disaster lay in the upper echelons. Huatian Palace had already sounded the highest alert half a year ago. It was said that in the upper echelons, the scourge of the Absolute Evil Qi was even more serious.
"Brother Wang Yuan, it's not that I don't want to help you, but the Absolute Evil Qi is something that even the upper echelons are afraid of … Hmm, maybe there is a place where you and your daughter can live."
Dongfang Yi suddenly thought of a person. The upper echelons of Huatian Palace could naturally be Wang Yuan and his daughter. However, his status was low and he did not have the ability to ask those powerful existences for help. In the end, Dongfang Yi was just a low-level character in Huatian Palace. However, that person was different. He had some friendship with him.
