After the people from the Evil Sky Pavilion left.
The Feather Emperor descended from the skies.
He did not seem to be in a good mood. However, he was the Feather Emperor. He had to remain calm.
He stabilized his chaotic Primal Qi and gradually regained his composure.
If he did not summon the Heavenly Soul Pearl in time, his destroyed heart would not have been able to recover. The Feather Tribe was half-human and half-beast. They had powerful regenerative abilities and were resistant to attacks. The Heavenly Soul Pearl aside, they had many hearts as well. With his cultivation base, damage beyond his limits would not be enough to destroy his body and soul.
"Your Majesty, is he … is he really a Demon … a Demon God?" an official at the side asked.
The Feather Emperor's body faded away.
He appeared in the palace.
The official understood and returned to the palace as well.
The Feather Emperor said calmly, "He's not a Demon God."
The official said calmly, "You knew that, Your Majesty?"
The official asked in confusion, "You knew, Your Majesty?"
The Feather Emperor said, "Big Abyss is the Great Void's last line of defense. Dark Heart valued it the most. That's why Dark Heart left behind a sensing crystal that can sense the Demon God. When I came to see him, the crystal didn't light up. "
"Wow, he impersonated the Demon God! No wonder Emperor Dark Heart announced the Demon God's death. " However, he quickly asked in confusion, "Then, Your Majesty, why did you give him the Heaven Suppression Pestle?"
The Feather Emperor smiled. "This isn't mine to begin with. Moreover, the Great Void values the Great Void greatly. Since someone wants this hot potato, I'll just give it to him. "
'Divert the trouble?'
The official exclaimed inwardly, "Brilliant, Your Majesty!"
The Feather Emperor sighed and said, "However, I didn't expect this person to have obtained something from the Demon God. He's quite skilled …"
"Does he have the cultivation base of a great emperor?"
"I didn't go all out. His cultivation base is at most an early-stage supreme." At this point, the Feather Emperor changed the topic. "However, there's something strange about his attacks. He has the potential to become a great emperor. That's why I gave him the Heaven Suppression Pestle. "
"Why did he impersonate the Demon God, then?"
There were many experts in the Great Void. It would not be difficult for the experts of the Great Void Ten Halls and the Sage Hall to join forces to deal with the Demonic God. Who would dare to go against the Great Void?
The Feather Emperor said, "Back then, the Demonic God's reputation was too great. Perhaps some people wanted to enjoy the status of the Demonic God. As for the real reason, we don't know. "
The official asked again, "Do we need to report to Taixu about what happened today?"
Hearing the word 'report'.
The Feather Emperor's expression darkened.
He disliked that word very much.
The Great Void was above, and the Great Abyss was below.
Was this really the future that the Harpies wanted? They would forever be trampled underfoot, forever looking up to the void?
The official immediately lowered his head, not daring to speak.
…
Meanwhile.
The members of the Evil Sky Pavilion who had left the Great Void were still in a daze.
It wasn't until they reached the jungle area that a voice pulled them back from their thoughts.
"Hey."
Everyone turned to the source of the voice.
He saw a man wearing a mask standing under a tree.
"Who is it?" Pan Zhong asked solemnly.
"I want to talk to your Pavilion Master. Everyone else, mind your own business," said the masked man.
Lu Zhou gestured for the others to wait. He flew over to the masked man and asked, "Jie Jinan, what's the matter?"
Jie Jinan was shocked. He exclaimed, "No way. How can you recognize me?"
"Even if you're reduced to ashes, I'll recognize you."
He relied on his sniffing power, not his ability to memorize a person's appearance.
Moreover, Jie Jinan was the only person who was close to the Evil Sky Pavilion in the Great Abyss Pavilion.
Jie Jinan had helped Lu Zhou before. It was only natural for him to appear now.
Jie Jinan scratched his head awkwardly and said, "To think that I found a mask."
"Tell me, what's the matter?" Lu Zhou asked.
Jie Jinan glanced at the members of the Evil Sky Pavilion in the air and said, "I didn't expect you to be alive. I thought you died with Great Emperor Tu Wei. I didn't sleep well for a few days."
"Why did you help me?" Lu Zhou asked.
Jie Jinan studied Lu Zhou and said, "Your cultivation base is improving quickly. Alas, the time isn't ripe yet. However … I can tell you that I'm not your enemy. "
Lu Zhou stared at Jie Jinan intently.
Was there a need to say that?
Jie Jinan said, "However, you've been too high-profile this time. The Feather Emperor is clearly going easy on you. He's trying to shift the blame to someone else. You'd better be careful. "
"Is it wrong for me to take back what's mine?" Lu Zhou asked.
"That's right."
Jie Jinan added, "I've returned what's yours to you in secret a long time ago."
Lu Zhou frowned. "The Great Heaven Pouch and Gouchen's Heart?"
"Yes."
"Isn't the Heaven Suppression Pestle mine?"
Although Lu Zhou had obtained the Fiend God's memories and remembered many things, he did not know these details.
Jie Jinan smacked his thigh and said, "The Feather Emperor really gave you the Heaven Suppression Pestle?"
Lu Zhou turned around.
He extended his palm toward the horizon.
The brocade box containing the Heaven Suppression Pestle flew down.
Click!
He opened it, and the Heaven Suppression Pestle appeared before his eyes.
The moment he saw the Heaven Suppression Pestle, Jie Jinan's eyes widened. He said, "You dare to extort the Feather Emperor's Heaven Suppression Pestle … You …"
He muttered to himself, a little exasperated.
"You're too high-profile and arrogant … Aren't you afraid of repeating the same mistake?!"
Lu Zhou was aware that he was being too high-profile.
However, there were many things that he had to do to achieve his goal.
Lu Zhou said calmly, "The world lacks the Fiend God. Why can't I do it?"
"Uh …"
'You're the Fiend God, to begin with.'
Jie Jinan said helplessly, "Your return will surely attract the attention of the Great Void. Don't go up against the Ten Temples of the Great Void and the Holy Temple in the near future."
"Are you looking down on me?" Lu Zhou asked.
Jie Jinan was startled. He said, "No, no … Don't be so sensitive. I'm just reminding you not to underestimate Ming Xin. "
The scene of the Fiend God's miserable defeat surfaced in Lu Zhou's mind.
There was a moment of silence.
The Great Void had lost four Paragons to subdue the Fiend God.
Indeed, Ming Xin was not a simple character.
Moreover, Ming Xin was not the only one in the Great Void. There were the Ten Temples of the Great Void and the Great Emperors of the Lost Land.
If they joined forces, things would be troublesome. It was not that Lu Zhou was afraid of them, but it would implicate the Evil Sky Pavilion and his disciples.
In a sense, it was not a bad thing for his disciples to be captured earlier.
"Is there anything else?" Lu Zhou asked when he saw Jie Jinan's perverted behavior.
"That's all." Jie Jinan chuckled dryly.
"If there's a chance, I'll return to the Great Abyss."
Lu Zhou rose into the air and led the members of the Evil Sky Pavilion toward the runic tunnel.
Jie Jinan watched them leave until they disappeared into the horizon. Only then did he let out a long sigh. "They really haven't changed at all. Ai, I don't know if this is a blessing or a curse. There were many who betrayed us back then. Don't you dare die again. "
"Eh? Why did I use the word 'again'? Pfft!"
Jie Jinan turned around.
He walked out of the forest.
Just when he was feeling emotional …
A dignified voice rang in his ears.
"Jie Jinan."
The voice was imposing without being angry.
It seemed to have come from hell. It startled Jie Jinan.
Jie Jinan turned around. His eyes widened as he said, "Who's there?!"
A figure appeared nearby. A halo spread out. A pair of pure white wings shone with a rich holy radiance.
Jie Jinan exclaimed in shock, "Your Majesty, the Emperor of Yu?"
The Emperor of Feather calmly looked at Jie Jinan.
Jie Jinan said guiltily, "I'm just taking a stroll. Why would Emperor Yu come here?"
The Feather Emperor was still looking at him, not saying a word.
Jie Jinan scratched his head and took off his mask. "I'll go back now."
"You once followed the Demonic God. This Emperor will not bicker with you," the Feather Emperor suddenly said.
Jie Jinan stopped, not knowing what he wanted to say.
The Feather Emperor continued.
"I have always respected the strong, but that doesn't mean I like traitors."
Jie Jinan's heart tightened. He frowned and said, "I've always been loyal to Da Yuanxian. I've never done anything to betray him."
"Really?"
"I swear to God."
"You faked the White Emperor's orders. Did you think I didn't know?" the Feather Emperor said calmly.
"…"
The Feather Emperor continued, "Do you really think that the White Emperor will stand on the Demon God's side?"
Jie Jinan: "…"
Jie Jinan said, "I really don't understand what His Majesty Yu Huang is saying."
The Feather Emperor revealed an unfathomable smile and said, "You will understand."
He waved his arm.
Four Winged Clan elites with extraordinary auras appeared behind the Feather Emperor.
Their bodies were shrouded in faint halos as well.
The Feather Emperor said indifferently, "Lock Jie Jinan in Da Yuanxian's dungeon. Seal his cultivation base and await further punishment."
"Understood."
…
A day later.
The rooster's cry was the Heavenly Opening Rooster.
That towering icicle stood tall and erect.
Lu Zhou appeared nearby on Whitzard's back.
"Wait here."
"Understood."
Lu Zhou flew past the Heavenly Opening Rooster's cry alone.
He looked up at the Heavenly Opening Pillar that towered into the clouds. The feeling of novelty was long gone.
When he was above the circular lake, he studied the ice spike with a puzzled expression on his face.
Lu Zhou did not beat around the bush. "Where's Princess Sang?"
There was no reply.
Lu Zhou pushed his palm against the ice spike.
The faint heat seemed to be melting the ice spike.
Whoosh!
The figure in the long dress swept over from above the icicle and attacked downwards.
Lu Zhou looked up and met the attack with his palm.
Bam! Bam! Bam! Bam!
Water filled the skies and shot out in all directions.
Lu Zhou strolled casually as he dealt with Princess Sang's attack calmly.
After hundreds of strikes, Princess Sang finally stopped. She looked at Lu Zhou in shock and said, "It's you?"
Lu Zhou stood calmly and said, "A hundred years have passed, and you're still hiding in the ice spike."
"A hundred years have passed, and your cultivation base has improved so much?"
"Humans will always improve," Lu Zhou said.
"You're the one who destroyed the Heavenly Opening Pillar. I have to guard against it," Princess Sang said.
"Guard against the sky collapsing?" Lu Zhou looked up at the majestic ice spike.
'If the sky collapses, I'll pierce through the void in the form of an ice spike?'
Lu Zhou wondered if this method would work. However, this strange idea left him speechless.
"That's none of your business," Princess Sang said. "What are you doing here?"
Lu Zhou asked, "Where's the Crimson Emperor?"
At the mention of the Crimson Emperor, Princess Sang frowned and said angrily, "Don't mention him to me."
"Where is he?" Lu Zhou asked again.
"Don't mention him to me!" Princess Sang was even angrier now.
"Do you hate him?!"
"I hate him!"
"That's good. I've been wanting to cause trouble for him anyway," Lu Zhou said.
Princess Sang's brows relaxed when she heard this, and then she revealed a puzzled expression, "You intend to look for trouble with him?"
Lu Zhou nodded.
Di Nu Sang thought for a moment, then said like a little girl, "Then go find him quickly, he is in the southern Flame Water Region."
"South, Flame Water Domain?"
"Grandpa Azure Thearch said that he might go to the Great Void in a few days … You have to hurry!" Princess Sang said.
"Emperor Qing? Is he going to the Great Void? "Lu Zhou seized the opportunity to ask," Where's the Azure Emperor? "
"Grandpa Azure Emperor is in the east. He's not far from Grandpa White Emperor." Princess Sang immediately said, "You're not going to cause trouble for Grandpa Azure Emperor, are you? He's a good man! "
"Good people?"
Lu Zhou frowned.
How could there be a good person among the people who kidnapped my disciple?
Lu Zhou did not show any hostility. Instead, he asked, "Why did the Crimson Emperor go to the Great Void?"
If he went to the Great Void, things would get troublesome.
The time to go to the Great Void wasn't ripe yet.
Princess Sang shook her head, indicating that she did not know.
"Your cultivation base has improved so quickly. You should be able to enter the Great Void, right?" Princess Sang asked curiously.
Perhaps, it was because she had not seen humans for a long time and felt lonely, she liked to communicate with humans.
Sometimes, she would develop a twisted mentality and leave humans in the ring-shaped lake. Those who could not withstand the torture would naturally die.
Lu Zhou gave it some thought and asked, "How do I enter the Great Void?"
Princess Sang studied Lu Zhou and said, "With your abilities, you're more than qualified to enter the Great Void. I heard from Grandpa Azure Thearch that the Great Void has lost many people and is recruiting talents from Ninelotus. You can go … "At this point, she pouted and said," However, the Great Void is really boring. Why don't you stay and keep me company?! "
"I have important matters to attend to. I can't stay," Lu Zhou said.
Upon hearing this, Princess Sang said dejectedly, "You humans are strange. Why must you enter the Great Void?"
"You're clearly alive … Why do you deny that you're human?" Lu Zhou asked.
"I'm alive …" Princess Sang paused for a moment before she said, "However, my heart has died a long time ago."
Lu Zhou probed.
As expected, Princess Sang did not have a heartbeat!
When she spoke up to this point, it was clear she was in low spirits.
There was nothing sadder than a dead heart.
The "heart" she mentioned was probably a pun.
The Crimson Emperor was her father, and yet, he could bear to let her stay here.
"Where's the Flaming Water Region?" Lu Zhou asked.
"The Endless Ocean in the south. It's very, very far away … It won't be easy to find," Princess Sang replied.
Lu Zhou's goal was to find his disciples.
After confirming their safety, he would bring them back to his side. For now, he did not seem to be in a hurry. 100 years had passed. What should have happened had already happened.
It seemed unrealistic for him to search for the Crimson Emperor in the Flaming Water Region now.
When he thought about this, Lu Zhou muttered to himself, "Let's go to heaven then."
…
Meanwhile.
South of the Endless Ocean.
On the peak of a mountain, Mingshi Yin was admiring the scenery of the Endless Ocean.
Mingshi Yin admired the scenery of the Endless Ocean as he shook his head.
A figure appeared nearby. The figure bowed and said, "Mister Ri, the Crimson Emperor has ordered you to cultivate."
"I've been cultivating all this time."
"The Crimson Emperor said that your cultivation base needs to improve. That's the only way you'll be able to stand out in the upcoming contest for the Hall Master position," the figure said, "I'll be watching over you at all times."
"Heh … You don't understand human speech. I've been cultivating all this time." Mingshi Yin was speechless.
"…"
"The Crimson Emperor also said that you're already a member of the Flaming Water Region. If there's no need, don't contact the golden lotus's master anymore," the figure said.
Mingshi Yin frowned. "What master? I don't have a master. "
The figure nodded and said, "In that case, I won't disturb you any longer, Mister Ri."
The figure vanished in a flash.
Mingshi Yin rolled his eyes at the void. He looked ahead and said, "I don't have a master."
