PS: Chapter 1 on Tuesday.
"Are they all out?" Outside the Purgatory Formation, Zhu Rong slowly opened his eyes, looking tired. God knew how much cultivation he had spent to forcibly open the passage of the Purgatory Formation. Glancing at the pretty beauty beside him who was talking cheerfully and with a ruddy face, Zhu Rong felt quite resentful. In order to break the Purgatory Formation, he had spent the power of his Primordial Spirit for half a sixty-year cycle, which meant that he could use the power of "Immortal Xiansheng" once in another sixty-year cycle. However, he had wasted all his efforts and only saved a bunch of useless people.
Not only that, but the slutty woman of the Qiuyue Palace did nothing but enjoy the fruits of others' labor. While he was asking, he was about to lose his temper.
Qiu Xiangrong turned around and smiled at him, saying as if she was praising him, "You are really awesome. If I had known this earlier, I would have used this plan first. Why did you let a junior take all the credit?" She was at the age of knowing her destiny, but she was still as flirtatious as a beautiful woman in her early twenties. Different from the real young women, women at her age were best at figuring out men's minds. Every frown and every smile of hers was full of hidden schemes. She might not be the most beautiful woman, but she was the best at seducing men.
Zhu Rong's Taoist Heart was slightly shaken. Thinking of her skills in bed and the fact that the target was shifted to Yan Li, he didn't mention what had happened before. Instead, he said complacently, "Without me, how could his plan succeed? Saving people is a small matter. The important thing is to protect Red Rock City, which is equivalent to saving the nine faces. If he can't break the Purgatory Formation, I will punish him. "
"You are right. I don't know why my Weiwei is obsessed with him, but he always protects him, which makes my sister so angry …" Qiu Xiangrong sighed and said.
Zhu Rong's heart stirred, "There shouldn't be any accidents between the Dao Court's First Palace and Gu Caiwei. Why hasn't it been decided?"
Qiu Xiangrong curled her lip and said, "It's all because of Yan Li, that brat, who made trouble and even provoked Su Xiaojian. Speaking of which, Emperor Han is too useless. He actually agreed to the bet and said that only the one who won the first place in the Demon-Sweeping Conference was qualified to propose marriage. I originally thought it was a sure thing, but now it seems that it may not be so."
When Zhu Rong heard this, he knew that she was not worried about Gu Caiwei's marriage, but was unhappy that the Lotus Seat did not manage to climb up to the Dao Court. He thought to himself, If I really climb up to the Lotus Throne, will you still obediently submit to me? Sneering in his heart, he said without batting an eyelid, "Everyone has their own fate, there is no need to force it. From the looks of it, the young lady has no interest in Emperor Han. Perhaps my disciple will have a chance? "
Qiu Xiangrong said with a smile, "In my opinion, Liu Tang is a good kid. He is calm and has excellent talent. Unfortunately, the young lady is very mischievous, and she can't allow us old guys to make the decision. "
Hearing this, Zhu Rong lost interest. He knew that she could not make the decision for Gu Caiwei's marriage, and she did not even have any influence. With slight contempt, he thought, "After all, she is just a plaything."
Xue Tianya walked over with Emperor Han, cupped his fists, and said, "Elder Zhu, the mortals have been rescued, and the trapped disciples have been successfully rescued. Now, we only need to break the Purgatory Array, and it will be our turn to fight back against the Demons!"
"Hmm, very good." Zhu Rong nodded.
When he was about to say something, he suddenly saw the outer membrane of the Purgatory Array turn into nothingness like melting snow. He said in surprise, "The array is broken?"
Qiu Xiangrong was even more surprised. "How long has it been? Can it really be broken without a Master Alchemist?"
"Seniors, please look!" Xue Tianya suddenly pointed at a place with a pale face. "Isn't that the vortex of the Demonic Abyss Eye?"
He pointed at the place where the snowflakes touched the ground. Not only had the snowflakes melted into water, but they had also eroded the ground into a sticky swamp.
Zhu Rong instinctively grabbed a snowflake, but he did not find anything strange. The snowflake was just a normal snowflake.
"Oh no, Elder Liang and the others are still inside!"
…
"What do you mean?" Liumu Bingjian asked immediately.
Yan Li's face was dark, and he did not say anything. He was not narcissistic, and he knew his own limits most of the time. However, he did not expect that woman to scheme to this extent just to deal with him. Zhou Wenlong was even a sacrificial pawn from the beginning.
The abnormality of Red Rock City was quickly discovered. When they reacted, the entire Red Rock City, besides the mountain that still looked like the eye of the array, had no place to stand. After the baptism of the snowflakes, it had become a Demonic Abyss Eye.
The Demonic Abyss Eye, a miniature Demon World, was forming under their feet at an unbelievable speed.
"Demon, Demonic Eye …" a disciple reminded with a pale face.
Liang Youyu said angrily, "I know it's a Demonic Eye! Who can tell me what's going on? "Even someone as good-tempered as him could not help but lose his temper. It was clear how serious the situation was.
The expressions of the thirty people changed. They knew that the situation was extremely bad.
"Martial Uncle, I'm afraid we've been tricked by Li Xueyi again!" Wen Ziqing said bitterly.
"What do you mean?" Wei Shu asked.
Wen Ziqing said, "When I was making my calculations just now, I investigated the underground river and realized that the foundation had been eroded beyond recognition by the water of the Dark Abyss River. I did not think too much at that time, but now I realize that Li Xueyi has an even more powerful killer move, which is this Demonic Abyss Eye! It's fine if we don't break the array, but if we do, it will be the key to opening the Demonic Abyss Eye. She's practically … "
He glanced at Yan Li. "She's practically calculated every step of our actions …"
Everyone looked at Yan Li.
Liang Youyu suppressed his anger and forced a smile. He said to Yan Li, "Little Brother Yan, can you tell us what's going on?"
"No wonder we've been on the defensive ever since the Purgatory Formation appeared!" Guan Xiaolong said meaningfully. "So, Li Xueyi has schemed against us so deeply. First, he used the water of the Dark Abyss River to surround the Purgatory Formation. On the surface, he made us think that he was stopping us from breaking the array, but he was actually burying the key to the Demonic Abyss Eye. Then, he had someone kidnap the Grandmaster Alchemist. That way, we would have no choice but to personally come in and break the array …"
He glanced at Yan Li. When he saw the latter's gloomy expression, he felt happy and thought that he deserved it. "I expected that the Purgatory Formation would collapse on its own when the fake array eye was broken. However, the destruction of the Purgatory Formation is the key to activating the Demonic Abyss Eye. This is all connected. It's hard to believe that it's a coincidence, right?"
"If we die in the Demonic Abyss Eye, the Three Realms will be greatly shaken, and a war will break out at any moment," Xu Guang of the Dao Court's Sixth Big Dipper Palace said slowly.
Yan Li was placed in the eye of the storm with all these words. Even though there were only around thirty people present, their gazes were enough to kill a person if that person was ashamed enough.
