After testing out its unbreakable might, the two of them returned to the Celestial Avenue. As soon as they arrived at the Cloud Rong House's Paradise, Miao Yi hugged Yun Zhiqiu from behind and rubbed his face against hers. He took in the scent of her fair neck, his hands roaming all over her body.
Yun Zhiqiu naturally knew what he was up to. She grabbed his hands and pried them away, then turned around and cupped Miao Yi's face with both hands. She said seriously, "If you keep this up, you won't be able to cultivate today. It's not like you can run away from me. You can have it whenever you want in the future. Don't get distracted by a woman for now. It's not worth it anyway. You should focus on improving your cultivation as soon as possible. Be good. I'll definitely take good care of you when you leave. For now, put all your focus on cultivating. "
Miao Yi was naturally a little disappointed. It had been a long time since he last touched her. More importantly, she didn't allow him to touch her. It was fine if she didn't allow him to, but she even told the other concubines not to distract him. It was rather boring.
Yun Zhiqiu could control him in the open, but she couldn't control his little tricks in the dark. After all, there was still Huangfujun lurking in the shadows. Y。
Left with no choice, he could only use his hands to take advantage of Yun Zhiqiu. That delicate face, those full breasts, those plump buttocks, that soft and supple body … Yun Zhiqiu's cheeks were flushed and she was panting heavily. However, this woman had a strong will. She insisted on not letting him touch her and urged him to go back to cultivating.
Miao Yi couldn't understand Yun Zhiqiu's worries, but she just didn't want to say it out loud.
However, Miao Yi was already aroused by her alluring figure. He was no longer the rookie he used to be, so how could he behave? As soon as he entered the tunnel, he immediately contacted Huangfujun. Y told her to deactivate the defensive formation, then sneak into the Hall of Heroes to have some fun.
'Huangfujun?' Y couldn't care less. As long as Miao Yi came, he would be happy. Naturally, a pair of lovebirds would do whatever they wanted, indulging themselves in endless pleasure.
It was fortunate that Yun Zhiqiu didn't know about this. If she knew that all their efforts were for naught, the consequences would be unimaginable. It would be strange if this woman didn't flip out …
Several years passed by in a flash. Miao Yi was sitting cross-legged within the Guardian Palace's silent quarters when he suddenly opened his eyes. The Fourth Grade Golden Lotus that had appeared on the red crack between his brows slowly faded away. He opened his palms, revealing two lotus cores that glowed with a crimson light. In an instant, the blood aura within the silent quarters surged violently.
He had finished refining another two Blood Pills, but he still needed at least another forty years before he could break through to Golden Lotus Fifth Grade. The date of the assessment was approaching, and he still had to gather at the Dong Hua Manor in advance. Time didn't allow him to break through to Golden Lotus Fifth Grade before going.
He took out the Battle Armor and placed the two lotus cores back into the Battle Armor. He did not continue to cultivate.
After contacting Fu Qing and the others, Miao Yi left the silent quarters and took a seat in the courtyard. Bao Lian placed a cup of tea beside him, and Miao Yi dismissed her.
Not long after, Fu Qing, Invincible Eagle, and Xu Tangran arrived and stood in a row in front of him. Miao Yi asked them to sit down. They thanked him verbally, but in reality, they did not do anything. They did not act as if they were on equal footing with him.
Miao Yi seemed to be getting used to the respect from Fu Qing and the others. After all, it had been so many years. He sipped his tea and asked, "What's the situation outside?"
The three of them exchanged glances. Fu Qing replied, "The date of the Hell assessment is approaching. People are talking about whether or not Milord should participate in the assessment. There are even people in the casino who have set up bets on whether Milord will participate or not. There seems to be quite a lot of people betting on it."
Miao Yi scoffed. "They even dare to use me as a wager. It looks like the deadline is approaching. They know that I'm at the end of the road, so they no longer care about me. Tell me, are there more people betting on me going, or are there more people betting on me not going? "
Fu Qing pondered for a moment, then replied, "I think it's about half and half. Some people think that Milord will not dare to go to his death, so he might still have a chance to live if he gives up on the assessment. Others think that Milord will not be able to live peacefully, so he will definitely take a gamble."
"Hmph!" Miao Yi put down his teacup, then asked, "What's the situation with the Chamber of Commerce?"
The three of them fell silent. Xu Tangran sighed. "Our control over the Chamber of Commerce is practically non-existent. Those shops have already taken us over in secret. They just don't dare to do it openly for now. Once Milord leaves, I'm afraid the Chamber of Commerce's structure will revert to its original state."
"Very well!" Miao Yi swept his gaze across the three of them. "Remember who did what. Write it down one by one. Don't leave anything out. When I come back, I will settle the old and new scores."
"Yes!" The three of them answered.
After paying attention to the situation at Celestial Street for a while, Miao Yi sat in the pavilion in silence for a long time after the three of them left.
The assessment was just around the corner. No matter how much preparation he had made, he still did not want to go to Hell alone. It was too dangerous to be alone. He wanted to find some allies, but looking around, who would be willing to form an alliance with him to face the assessment together?
After thinking about it, the only one who had some connections and background that could support him was Kou Wenlan. At this point, there was no need to worry about his reputation. Compared to his life, his reputation was naturally more important.
He took out the Star Bell and contacted Kou Wenlan.
Kou Wenlan had always been a good person. She replied, "Commander Niu, why did you suddenly think of greeting me at a time like this?"
Miao Yi, "I am about to head to Hell for the assessment."
Kou Wenlan paused for a moment. "You should think about the consequences of heading to Hell. You have offended more than one or two people. You might as well reconsider."
Miao Yi, "I have no other choice. The people I have offended will not let me go just because I have given up my position as the Commander of Celestial Street. Without my status as a Purple Armored General, without my authority, it will only make it easier for them to make a move against me."
Kou Wenlan, "If you had known this would happen, you wouldn't have done it in the first place! Are you contacting me now because of the assessment? "
Miao Yi, "I believe that many of Heavenly King Kou's subordinates are participating in the assessment as well. Niu Youde has requested to form an alliance with them. I hope that Commander Kou can help me greet them, considering our past relationship."
Kou Wenlan hesitated for a long time before replying, "Niu Youde, you are making things difficult for me! If the others touch you, and my people protect you, there will definitely be a conflict. The Kou Clan will face the other clans alone, and this is a place like Hell. It is obvious that they will be at a disadvantage. How can you expect the Kou Clan to pay such a huge price for you? "
Miao Yi was slightly disappointed. However, when he thought about it, he realized that he was indeed thinking too much. He quickly replied, "Commander Kou, please don't take it to heart. If you can't do it, then forget it."
However, Kou Wenlan had something else to say. "The Kou Clan will definitely not agree to forming an alliance with you. However, it is still possible for them to not touch you. How about this, I will ask my Eldest Uncle to let the representatives of the First, Garrison, and Hai Routes not make things difficult for you. As for the other nine routes, I can't do anything about it. You will have to deal with them yourself. Also, the assessment this time will affect the location of many Celestial Streets. You met my Fifth Sister, Kou Wenqing, during the previous assessment. She is still the supervisor of the assessment this time. I will let her know and take care of you, lest someone tries to make things difficult for you before the assessment. Niu Youde, this is all I can do!
This is enough. At the very least, there will be one less threat from the three routes. These three routes are not a small number. They are the subordinates of the three Marshals! He immediately thanked her. "Words cannot express my gratitude. I, Niu Youde, will repay you generously if I have the chance!"
Kou Wenlan: "Forget about it. I was the one who misspoke back then and failed to take you away. That's why you fell into such a desperate situation. This is all I can do to help. Take care!"
To Miao Yi, he finally found some comfort in his isolated and helpless situation.
There were some people in hell that he couldn't let go of. How could he let go of someone who could avoid the pursuit of a cultivator with boundless transcendence energy and survive until now in hell?
Miao Yi took out the Star Bell and contacted Yun Aotian. "I will be going to hell to participate in the assessment soon. Let's confirm a place to meet up!"
In a certain underground cave in hell, after ending the call, Yun Aotian suddenly let out a loud roar, his voice echoing out of the cave.
Soon, Mu Fanjun and the others arrived. Yun Aotian looked at them and said, "Miao Yi is coming to participate in the assessment."
Cang Lei was stunned. "Didn't he say he wasn't coming?"
Yun Aotian immediately told them about the call just now.
When Ji Huan heard it, she immediately threw her head back and laughed heartily. "The Sorcerer is indeed the Sorcerer. How could Miao Yi escape from his divine calculations? It's hard to defy fate!"
They looked at each other and smiled knowingly. The Sorcerer's prophecy had trapped them for so many years. They had endured it year after year until they were a little flustered. They didn't know when it would end. Now, the situation had finally returned to the path of the Sorcerer's prophecy. Waiting quietly in the cage was indeed the right choice!
They were now looking forward to the latter part of the prophecy. "When the Six Sons meet again, the storm will rise again!"
Time waited for no man. The time to gather for the assessment arrived in the blink of an eye.
The night before his departure, Miao Yi spent the night at Yun Zhiqiu's place.
That night, Qian'Er and Xue'Er realized that Madam Miao Yi had run out to rinse her mouth with water again. She looked to be in a sorry state. This time, the two of them were experienced and didn't disturb her again.
The next day, after the couple came out of their bedroom, they embraced each other tightly and remained silent for a long time.
In the end, it was Yun Zhiqiu who pushed Miao Yi away with a forced smile. She gazed at him with her bright eyes and gently reminded, "Be careful."
"Mm! Don't worry. I'll be back soon. I won't die! " Miao Yi let go of her, then turned to Qian'Er and Xue'Er and said, "When I'm not around, the two of you must take good care of Madam. Otherwise, I'll hold you responsible!"
"Understood!" The two ladies replied with a slight bow.
Without another word, Miao Yi strode away and disappeared from the entrance of the Blessed Paradise.
Yun Zhiqiu didn't send him off. Miao Yi didn't want to see them part forever. He also reminded the other concubines not to send him off. If he wanted to leave, he would leave. If he wanted to return, he would return. Everyone obeyed him.
As she watched Miao Yi's silhouette disappear, Yun Zhiqiu's reluctant eyes gradually filled with grief and indignation. She raised her head to the sky and gritted her teeth as she said, "We are nothing more than meat on the chopping block. We are no different from ants. Our lives and deaths are beyond our control! I, Yun Zhiqiu, swear to the heavens that one day, we will trample all living beings under our feet. We will never be bullied like this again! "
Bang! A sudden clap of thunder resounded in the sky. The pedestrians on Celestial Street all raised their heads to look. It was raining!
After Miao Yi emerged from the tunnel, he also noticed that it was raining. He raised his head to look at the sky, then turned to look at Charcoal, who was dozing off under the eaves. He called out softly, "Fat thief!"
Whoosh! The sound of napping came to a halt. Charcoal opened one eye to look, then both eyes opened at the same time. With a leap, he landed beside Miao Yi, lowered his head and breathed out at him.
Miao Yi raised his hand and stroked Charcoal's chin. He smiled and said, "Fat thief, it's been a long time since we fought together on the battlefield. Are you willing to follow me into battle again?"
Charcoal was stunned for a moment, then revealed an impatient expression. Shaking his head and wagging his tail, he quickly circled around Miao Yi, his sharp claws leaving marks on the ground.
He had been silent for too long. It had been a long time since he had galloped amidst the splattering of blood, the deafening battle cries, and the surging transcendence energy. He missed his unparalleled prowess on the battlefield. Amidst the falling heads, amidst the splattering blood, trampling on broken limbs, breaking through the restraints of transcendence energy, and displaying his strength. Those scenes made his blood boil!
"Awooo!" After circling around a few times, Charcoal suddenly stopped. His crimson lion eyes widened, and he raised his head to roar at the dark clouds in the sky.
