Right at this moment, the Snow Empress suddenly flashed over. She braced herself and cupped her hands with a bitter smile. I know you want the Xuanming Soul Refining Technique. If you let go of the Emperor of the Underworld, I am willing to give it to you. "
The Snow Empress, who was carrying Xue Linglong, looked at them worriedly. She was afraid that her husband had angered Yue Qianchou. After all, Hong Tailong and Yue Qianchou were very powerful, especially Yue Qianchou's Samadhi True Fire, which was the nemesis of the couple's cultivation method. More importantly, she was afraid that angering Yue Qianchou would mean giving up the chance to cure her daughter. However, they were indebted to Bai Qi. Although she felt uncomfortable holding back some words, she couldn't say them out loud.
Yue Qianchou glanced at the couple, then slowly raised the divine sword in his hand and gently caressed the glowing edge of the sword, "Snow Emperor, we had an agreement. I saved your daughter's life, and you gave me the Xuanming Soul Refining Technique in exchange. Now, you want to use it to exchange for Bai Qi's life! You better think carefully. The Xuanming Soul Refining Technique can only exchange for one person's life. Whether it is Bai Qi or your daughter, it's up to you. "
The Snow Emperor lowered his head solemnly. The Snow Empress looked at her daughter in her arms, then at her husband, her face full of anxiety.
Bai Qi struggled for a while, and the three understood and helped him up. Facing the Snow Emperor, Bai Qi was very gratified and nodded, "I appreciate Brother Snow's righteousness. With Brother Snow's words, I can die without regrets. My friendship with Brother Snow was not in vain. However, the four of us are destined to live and die together today. I will not live alone, or it will be worse than death. So, please don't interfere in this matter. This has nothing to do with you and your wife. "
"Emperor of the Underworld …" The Snow Emperor wanted to say something, but Bai Qi had already turned to look at Yue Qianchou, who was ignoring him, and sighed, "I didn't expect this! Yue Qianchou, who didn't even dare to speak loudly in front of me, was now in control of my life and death. It seems that the Saintess is indeed a prophet. I had already vaguely figured out some of it, but in the end, I still made a mistake. I can't blame others for my fate. You're right, everything is retribution. "
"Netherworld Saintess?" Yue Qianchou raised his eyebrows and lowered the sword in his hand. He tilted his head and asked, "She told you about me?"
A bitter smile appeared on Bai Qi's bloody face, and his eyes became blurry. He recalled the conversation he had with the Underworld Saintess in the small courtyard of the Dark Royal Palace. He closed his eyes slightly and said, "Yue Qianchou! Back then, I wanted to kill you first. Killing me today is my retribution. However, I treated you well back then. Promise me one thing. "
Yue Qianchou frowned and said faintly, "Let's hear it first." Now that things had come to this, he wouldn't give in so easily.
A warm expression appeared on Bai Qi's face as he said, "Don't let the news of my death spread! That's all I want. "
Yue Qianchou was startled. He asked with some surprise, "You're already dead, yet you still care about the waves behind you. I want to know why? Is it worth it for me to promise you? "
Wan Ling's figure appeared in Bai Qi's mind. He had protected the entire Ten Thousand Holy Palace from the Demon King Three Nights. After rescuing Wan Ling, he and Wan Ling had an intimate time together. When they parted, he had said that he would come back to pick her up after finishing his business. Who would have thought that it would be an eternal farewell … He let out a soft sigh and closed his eyes as he replied, "If she doesn't know that I'm dead, she will naturally live on. I have nothing left for her. The only thing I can give her now is to give her the hope to live on …"
Everyone else was confused, but Yue Qianchou seemed to be deep in thought. He had already linked it to Wan Ling. He paused and said, "I can promise you this! I originally wanted to use the Xuan Ming Soul Refining Technique to refine you all into profound weapons … As you said, on account of the kindness you have shown me, I will give the four of you a quick death. From now on, the grudges between us will be resolved, and we will not owe each other anything! "
As soon as he finished speaking, a golden light flashed in his hand. With four "pu pu" sounds, four heads bounced up and fell to the ground. Warm blood spurted out from their mouths. The four corpses fell to the ground and twitched for a while before they stopped moving. The blood that flowed out from the severed heads quickly solidified on the icy ground …
Hong Tai Long looked at Yue Qianchou as he silently put away the divine sword in his hand. Previously, he had thought that he would let them go. He didn't expect that he would not leave a single one alive. Hong Tai Long wanted to say something, but he didn't know what to say. The Snow Empress and her husband looked at Bai Qi's corpse dumbfoundedly. Suddenly, a ball of seven-colored flame swept across, and there was nothing left on the ground. Even the blood had turned into ashes.
Yue Qianchou turned around and walked towards the husband and wife. He stopped in front of the Snow Empress who was carrying Xue Linglong, and said indifferently, "Snow Empress! I have always remembered the promise I made in the past. Today, I have come to fulfill it. " He stretched out his five claws and grabbed towards Xue Linglong. Not long after, a strand of seven-colored flame that was not much thicker than a strand of hair emerged from Xue Linglong's body. It was this little fellow that caused the Snow Empress and her husband to be helpless even with all their efforts.
That strand of flame drilled into Yue Qianchou's palm. Xue Linglong, who was still unconscious, let out a soft moan. Her body that was being carried moved slightly, and the sickly redness on her cheeks gradually disappeared. The husband and wife looked at their daughter who was recovering quickly, but they didn't feel the slightest bit happy. The Snow Empress raised her head and saw that Yue Qianchou was staring at her with a burning gaze. She couldn't help but smile bitterly and shake her head. She took out a jade archive and quickly inserted something into it, then flicked it out.
Yue Qianchou casually caught the jade archive and examined it. After thinking for a long time, he nodded slightly and said, "So that's how it is. I understand now!" The jade archive was immediately crushed into pieces.
In fact, the Xuanming Soul Refining Technique wasn't a technique that required a large amount of time to practice. It was a technique that condensed all of the opponent's cultivation into the essence of the technique and used it. It required a spiritual object that was connected to the user, so that the user could control it. No matter what type of spiritual object was used, the user would need the same type as the medium to unleash its power. This was the reason why the Snow Empress said that Yue Qianchou couldn't practice without absorbing the Fire Spirit.
After understanding the secret of the Xuanming Soul Refining Technique, Yue Qianchou was confident that he could use it on the five elements of water, fire, metal, wood, and earth. Of course, the prerequisite was that he had to swallow all five spirits of heaven and earth. The Snow Empress would never have imagined that Yue Qianchou had mastered all five elements of the technique. This was also the reason why Yue Qianchou was so interested in the Xuanming Soul Refining Technique. As long as he mastered it, he would be able to summon an almost unkillable Dark Soldier in any terrain in the future.
The Snow Empress and her husband didn't have anything to be happy about when their daughter's worries were resolved. They held their daughter and left with flagging interest. Now that the ice palace was destroyed, they suffered a great loss. The Ice Soul Mysterious Ice, which was refined by many experts, was destroyed by Yue Qianchou's Samadhi True Fire. But they didn't say anything and left. They wanted to find a suitable place to rebuild the ice palace in the snowy mountain.
After today's scene, they saw Yue Qianchou's ruthlessness. It was hard for them, who had always been aloof from worldly affairs, to accept it. They probably didn't want to have anything to do with Yue Qianchou anymore. At least in their opinion, Bai Qi was much more affectionate and righteous …
Yue Qianchou stood silently on the ice field and watched the couple leave. He stood for a long time in the howling cold wind. After a long time, he looked up at the dark night sky and sighed. "I thought I would become friends with them, but I knew it was impossible when I decided to kill Bai Qi … All these years, in order to do some things, I gained a lot, but I also lost too many precious things. What is the most precious? The human heart is the most precious! The people I was familiar with left me one by one. Some died, some left, and there's no turning back! Maybe when I gain more, I will also lose more … "
Hong Tailong also couldn't accept the fact that he killed Bai Qi and the other three people. Although he was the one who shouted the loudest to kill Bai Qi … after hearing Yue Qianchou's sigh, he seemed to understand his helplessness. After all, which person didn't have a story behind them? Everyone had been honest before, and maybe everyone had a touching story. But this was a life and death cultivation. There was more than one person like Bai Qi in the world. Who could carry so many burdens on their shoulders? If they didn't get rid of them quickly, there would only be more and more burdens, and nothing could be done …
Just as Hong Tailong was about to say a few words of consolation, he discovered that Yue Qianchou took a deep breath and became spirited again. He immediately came back to life from his loneliness and disappeared in a flash. His recovery speed was too fast. It was as if he was a completely different person, as if nothing had happened earlier!
After Yue Qianchou searched around the icy plains, he found Bai Qi's treasure, the Obsidian Underworld Light Mirror. He tried to control it, but discovered that it was impervious to fire and water. Even his divine sense couldn't penetrate it. It seemed like there was no possibility for him to control it. Hong Tailong flashed to his side and sneered, "Don't try anymore. The Obsidian Underworld Light Mirror is the symbol of the Netherworld's supreme ruler. Other than meditation cultivators, no one from the outside world is able to control it."
"There's such a strange thing?" Yue Qianchou flipped it around and looked at it. Then, he put it away with some regret. This thing could communicate with each other through a video call. It was a pity that he couldn't use such a high-grade treasure.
"Where should we go now? To sweep across the demonic path's army in the Netherworld, or to slaughter in the Immortal Realm? "Hong Tailong rubbed his palms together. He couldn't wait to prove to the Three Realms that he, Hong Tailong, had returned.
Yue Qianchou lowered his head and calculated for a while. He muttered to himself, "Looking at the time, it's about time. I wonder if that fellow, Shen You, will keep his promise." Then, he suddenly raised his head and said, "My master doesn't know about the Human Realm being sealed. I want to report to him first."
"Your master? Where? "Hong Tailong was stunned. Yue Qianchou had already waved his hand, and the two of them disappeared from where they stood.
By the Netherworld River beside the Myriad Heavens Boundary Barrier, the two of them appeared. Hong Tailong quickly looked around and asked hesitantly, "This is?"
"You're finally here?" A woman's clear voice rang out. The two of them looked at the other side of the river. The Netherworld Saintess slowly walked out from the ground. It seemed like she had opened up an underground space for herself. Hong Tailong was a little surprised and wanted to ask, "Is this your master?" Yue Qianchou was also a little surprised as he asked, "Why are you here?"
