Ling Chang stood rooted to the ground in the face of the King of Purple Cloud's threat. Her good impression of the King of Purple Cloud instantly dropped.
"Let's go!" Su Mo looked at Ling Chang and said in a low voice. He was not angry as he did not even have the right to be angry in front of a King God.
As such, he could only let Ling Chang leave. Since the King of Purple Cloud did not want to save her, he would think of another way.
He could not let Ling Chang be humiliated or sacrificed her chastity to save Qian Xunyue. This was absolutely impossible.
"If you leave, there will be no hope of saving this lady!" Zi Xiao sat on the main seat and said flatly.
"What do you mean?" Su Mo asked with a dark face.
"This lady does not have much time left. At most, she will not be able to be saved in a hundred years. By then, even I will not be able to save her!"
Although the King of Purple Cloud was telling Su Mo, he looked at Ling Chang and continued, "In the entire Deity Plane, besides me, there is no one else who has the ability to save her."
When Su Mo heard this, his heart instantly sank. Only a hundred years left?
Or was the King of Purple Cloud purposely trying to deceive him?
"Zi Xiao, we have known each other for hundreds of thousands of years. I did not expect you to be so despicable!"
At that moment, Ling Chang spoke. She looked coldly at Zi Xiao and her eyes were filled with anger.
"Sigh!"
In the face of Ling Chang's rebuke, Zi Xiao sighed and said helplessly, "Ling Chang, you know that the Era of the Deserted World is coming to an end. I have no other choice. I have been at the Intermediate King God Realm for fifty thousand years. I have to break through as soon as possible and become an expert before the era ends!"
"Even if you become an expert, you will not be able to escape the fate of the end!" Ling Chang said coldly. She naturally knew about the end of the era. However, no one knew the exact time of the end of the era. It could be hundreds of thousands of years, or even millions of years.
"After all, there is still hope to become an expert!"
The Violet Cloud Divine King sighed and continued, "Ling Chang, I know that you've always admired me. You're not forcing me to do something I don't want to do, are you?"
He didn't think that he was threatening Ling Chang, because she also had feelings for him. It was mutual consent, so how could he be threatening her?
"No, I did have a good impression of you in the past, but now, it's all gone!"
Ling Chang shook her head. Then, she shouted angrily, "Zi Xiao, I, Ling Chang, have never asked you for anything. Could it be that you're not willing to help me with just this?"
"My hands are tied!"
Zi Xiao shook his head lightly, completely unmoved. At his level of cultivation, he would not be swayed by emotions.
"Qin Yun, let's go!"
Ling Chang did not speak further. She called out to Su Mo and strode out.
When Su Mo saw it, he kept the coffin and left with Ling Chang with a dark face.
As he walked out of the hall, Su Mo activated the Sky Illusionary Divine Elixir again. He could not reveal his true appearance.
"Ling Shang, I await your reply!" the Violet Firmament God King said indifferently as he watched Ling Shang leave.
He was not worried that Ling Shang would not agree. He could see that the beautiful lady in the coffin was very important to Ling Shang and Su Mo.
In the entire Deity Territory, he was the only one who had the ability to save the lady.
He was not anxious. After all, Ling Shang's current cultivation level was far from recovering.
As long as Ling Shang agreed to help him, the time would come when Ling Shang recovered to the Divine King Realm.
…
Ling Shang was silent along the way. Her beautiful face was cold as she strode back to Ling Shang Sword Palace and returned to the top floor of the pagoda where she had secluded herself.
Su Mo also followed Ling Shang to the top floor of the pagoda.
The two of them were silent. They were angry and helpless.
"I will think of a way myself."
After a long while, Su Mo looked at Ling Shang and said in a deep voice.
Since things had come to this, he could only think of other ways.
"Su Mo, how long do you need to surpass Zi Xiao?" Ling Shang suddenly asked.
"Surpass?" When Su Mo heard this, his eyes instantly narrowed. After pondering for a while, he said, "I'm not sure!"
He was indeed not sure. King Zi Xiao was a Middle Divine King and a Supreme Divine King. His combat strength was terrifying.
As for Su Mo, he was still very far away from the Divine King Realm. He did not know how long it would take for his strength to surpass Zi Xiao.
"I can promise Zi Xiao to let him save Master Qian Xunyue!" Ling Shang said slowly.
"What you mean is … to drag it out first?" Su Mo's eyes flashed. He understood what Ling Shang meant.
Ling Shang wanted to promise Zi Xiao to let Zi Xiao save Qian Xunyue. However, he did not want to cultivate together with Zi Xiao.
He would drag it out until his strength surpassed Zi Xiao's. When that time came, Zi Xiao would not have the final say in the matter.
"That's right. Even if I agree to his request, he will not immediately ask to cultivate together with me!"
Ling Shang's eyes flashed sharply and she continued, "He will definitely wait for my cultivation level to recover to the Divine King Realm."
"How long will it take for you to recover to the Divine King Realm?" Su Mo asked anxiously.
"Isn't that up to me?" Ling Shang looked at Su Mo and asked.
Su Mo understood. Indeed, Ling Shang could completely delay the recovery of her cultivation level.
However, if Ling Shang did so, she would waste a lot of time.
"This is the only way!" Ling Shang sighed slightly. She had originally thought of asking the Ultimate Divine King Hall Master, who was her master, for help.
However, she gave up on this idea as the Hall Master would not interfere with Zi Xiao's thoughts.
Most importantly, after reincarnating, her importance in the Hall Master's heart had plummeted. She could not be compared to Zi Xiao.
"It seems that this is the only way!" Su Mo sighed. If he wanted to save Qian Xunyue, this was the only way.
However, he had to reach the Divine King Realm before Ling Shang recovered to the Divine King Realm. Otherwise, she would have to follow Zi Xiao.
With that, Su Mo and Ling Shang conversed for a while more before they went to look for Zi Xiao.
Not long later, the two of them met Zi Xiao in the main hall of Purple Cloud Sword Palace.
"Ling Shang, I knew that you would come back!" Zi Xiao was still sitting on the main seat. He wore a warm smile as he looked at Ling Shang, who had entered the hall.
He knew that Ling Shang would change her mind. However, he did not expect it to be so soon.
"I agree to your request, but you have to save her immediately." Ling Shang said coldly.
"Of course. As long as you agree, I will definitely try my best to save that lady!" Zi Xiao said with a smile.
Su Mo did not speak. He quietly looked at Zi Xiao. He saw a thought-provoking look in Zi Xiao's smile.
This made his heart sink. He was worried that Zi Xiao would play tricks on him again. After all, Zi Xiao was not stupid. It was not difficult to guess that Ling Shang would pretend to agree.
However, at that point, Su Mo could only hope that Zi Xiao would keep his promise and save Qian Xunyue.
"That's good!" Ling Shang nodded. She then looked at Su Mo and gestured for him to take out the coffin.
Seeing this, Su Mo triggered his thoughts and took out Qian Xunyue's coffin.
Then, Zi Xiao slowly stood up and walked down from the main seat. He came to the front of the coffin.
Pom!
Zi Xiao waved his sleeve and an invisible force instantly opened the lid of the coffin.
Then, he raised his palm and an invisible force pulled Qian Xunyue out of the coffin. She slowly floated up from the coffin.
