"If you are killed, then you have no right to be a pawn."
Emperor Ming's expression was calm, but the coldness in his voice was chilling.
Ding Ning's expression flickered. Although he knew that Emperor Ming was speaking the truth, he still felt very uncomfortable. After a long while, he sighed and said self-deprecatingly, "Yes, a pawn should have the awareness of a pawn."
Emperor Ming looked at him meaningfully. "Are you ready?"
"What?"
Ding Ning looked at him in confusion.
But in the next moment, the benevolent Emperor Ming's expression suddenly changed. A sinister aura emanated from his body as he slammed a palm into Ding Ning's chest.
Ding Ning felt an irresistible force. His first thought was that he was finished. Emperor Ming was going back on his word and was going to burn the bridge after crossing it.
But he didn't feel any discomfort. That palm was all bark and no bite. It only made his chest feel a little tightness and he spat out a mouthful of blood. He had already passed through the boundary and landed on the glacier.
Just as his mind was in a mess, Emperor Ming's urgent voice rang out in his mind. "Hurry to Celestial Water Emperor Palace and take Yiyi's body away. I will hold them off. I will give you the Three Treasures of the Underworld as a reward."
Only then did Ding Ning realize that the Immortal Emperor and the Human Sovereign had already arrived. They charged forward like mad tigers to engage Ming Di in a fierce battle.
Although Ding Ning didn't want to admit it, he couldn't deny that Emperor Ming was a very charismatic old man. It was hard to refuse his request.
Moreover, no matter how unwilling he was to be used by Emperor Ming, he couldn't refuse Emperor Ming's request based on his relationship with the mermaid.
No matter how strong the boundary was, it wouldn't be able to withstand the shockwaves of the battle between the three emperors. Once the boundary was broken, the first to be affected would be the frozen Celestial Water Emperor Palace. The mermaid's soul was in the process of merging. He couldn't just watch as her body was destroyed.
Emperor Ming used a clever move. Ding Ning's body flew into the air uncontrollably and he dove into the glacier.
Kacha!
The glacier that had been frozen for tens of thousands of years actually crumbled under his violent impact.
In the next moment, Ding Ning felt his body relax. The power Emperor Ming had exerted on him suddenly disappeared and he regained his freedom.
Before he could control his body, the inertia caused him to crash directly into a crystal clear aquamarine palace in the glacier.
The entire glacier began to melt at a visible rate. Ding Ning stared dazedly at the mermaid sealed in a large piece of crystal in the palace.
Her wavy, ocean-blue hair cascaded over her smooth shoulders like a waterfall. Her skin was as white and smooth as cream. Her graceful figure was exquisite and graceful. Her slender waist, delicate and lovely navel, tall and round snow-capped peaks, and her fishtail, which was faintly glowing with blue light, all added an indescribable sense of mystery and elegance to her.
She had a standard oval face, a forehead that was as smooth as jade, and her eyebrows were like crescent moons. Her long and narrow eyes were tightly shut, and her long and curly eyelashes reflected on her eyelids, creating fine shadows. Below her tall and straight nose, her rosy lips were like a rose, causing one's imagination to run wild.
She was like a noble and elegant princess taking a nap after playing. She was perfect and flawless. Her peaceful and serene sleeping posture made one feel that it was an unforgivable sin to disturb her slumber.
Beautiful. She was simply too beautiful.
Even though Ding Ning was used to seeing the mermaid totem, she was still so beautiful when he saw her in her real form. He could not bear to look at her directly.
This was a cleansing and shock that came from the depths of his soul. Ding Ning, who had always wanted to possess beautiful women the moment he saw them, understood for the first time what it meant to be watched from afar but not played with.
That indescribable strong sense of care and pity made him feel that even the slightest bit of dirty thoughts in the depths of his heart was a sin, a blasphemy against the word 'perfection'.
"Kid, hurry up and stop looking. I can't hold on much longer."
Just as Ding Ning was in a daze, Ming Di's flustered and exasperated voice rang in his ears.
Although the Ice Palace blocked off the view of the outside world, as a father, Ming Di was well aware of how beautiful his daughter was. Ding Ning had not made a move for such a long time. How could he not be aware of this? Thinking of his naked daughter being admired by Ding Ning, it would be strange if he did not fly into a rage out of humiliation.
Ding Ning was startled out of his trance by his voice transmission. He looked embarrassed. Although he had no intentions of blasphemy and was only appreciating beauty from an artistic point of view, how could he be clear about such matters? In the eyes of her father, it was an affront.
He hurriedly stepped forward and put the giant ice cube into his water space. He grumbled indignantly in his heart, "What's so special about this? Your daughter walks around me half-naked all the time. What haven't I seen?"
But he wouldn't dare to say something like that even if he was given a hundred guts. Ming Di was a demon who killed without batting an eyelid. If he was really angered, who knew if that old fellow wouldn't hesitate to kill him?
Even now, he still didn't understand what Emperor Hades wanted him to do. Did he want him to put away the mermaid's body?
However, he could sense that Ming Di didn't have any ill intentions towards him. Of course, this was only temporary. There was no telling what would happen in the future.
Perhaps the mermaid's body and soul were both in his body. This was probably one of the reasons why Ming Di wouldn't burn the bridge after crossing it.
Rumble!
Just as he was at a loss for what to do next, there was a tremendous explosion as if the end of the world had come. The boundary shattered.
The gigantic glaciers melted at an incredible speed. The roaring torrents flowed into the dry world along the broken enchantment and spread in all directions.
The terrifying power of nature was on full display at this moment. Even the three emperors didn't dare to face it head-on. They had no choice but to stop fighting and fly into the sky to face it.
But the next moment, the three emperors' expressions changed when they saw two figures flying towards them. Without another word, Ming Di dove into the glacier that hadn't completely melted yet. He grabbed Ding Ning and fled into the depths of the boundary.
"Eh? Demon Emperor Chongyang? "
"The Mysterious Fairy of the Nine Heavens?"
The Celestial Emperor and the Human Emperor were about to give chase, but when they saw who it was, they cried out at the same time. Surprise appeared on their faces, and they called out.
"Let's go!"
The Mysterious Fairy of the Nine Heavens and the Immortal Emperor were old acquaintances. They should have greeted each other.
But the Mysterious Fairy of the Nine Heavens stepped on the runes. She looked as if she was being chased by a ghost. She didn't even stop and rushed forward like a gust of wind.
The Demon Emperor did the same. He ran without a word, as if he didn't see the two emperors. He passed through the flooded glacier and ran into the distance.
"What's going on?"
The Human Emperor and Immortal Emperor looked at each other. They didn't know what to do. Suddenly, a dozen figures as fast as lightning appeared in their vision. Their expressions changed drastically and they turned to run without hesitation.
What a joke. Half step Immortal rank zombies were chasing them. Even though they were Emperor rank experts, they didn't have the support of a Great Emperor in this godforsaken place. They might not even be a match for a zombie in a one-on-one fight, let alone a dozen zombies.
Roar!
The zombies were restricted on the Sacred Mountain, but the Underworld was their home field. They were like fish in water and had no more worries. Their speed was frightening and they caught up in the blink of an eye.
A group of experts that stood at the top of the pyramid of the three dimensions were chased by the rotting corpses to the point they had nowhere to go, and they even exerted all their strength. They wished for nothing more than for their parents to give them an extra pair of legs, so they buried their heads and fled for their lives. If news of this were to spread, wouldn't they be laughed at to death by others?
Ming Di had the initiative, so he was calm as the first group. Mysterious Fairy of Nine Heavens and Demon Emperor were the second group, so they felt a little more relaxed because they had someone to protect them. However, the Immortal Emperor and Human Emperor were in a miserable situation. As the third group, they were the zombies' first targets. They were in a more difficult situation when running for their lives.
Even though they could look down on the world in the outside world, they didn't have the support of a Great Emperor in this place. They were only on par with Demon Emperor and Mysterious Fairy of Nine Heavens. Moreover, they were injured, so they were the weakest. It was almost impossible for them to surpass Demon Emperor and Mysterious Fairy of Nine Heavens.
Especially Mysterious Fairy of Nine Heavens. She spared no effort to use the formation to run faster and faster. Soon, she had left Demon Emperor behind and was about to catch up to Ming Di.
Demon Emperor was also frustrated. He was sealed under the Great Formation of Heavenly Constellation and Earth Fiend in the Ninth Territory. Even though he had used the demonic seed he planted in Demonic Emperor to change the Demon Suppression Formation into Demon Raising Formation, he was still badly injured by Kun Peng's will. Moreover, his demonic nature had been stripped away. He hadn't recovered much of his demonic nature even though he had been raising demons day and night. Now that Ming Di had blown up Sacred Mountain and forced him out of the Demon Raising Land, he was no longer in peak condition.
He had almost reached his limit after running for so long. His speed also started to slow down, allowing the Human Emperor and Immortal Emperor to catch up.
Now, the three groups were reduced to two. Ming Di, Mysterious Fairy of Nine Heavens and Ding Ning were in the first group, while Demon Emperor, Immortal Emperor and Human Emperor were in the second group.
However, everyone knew that this was only temporary. The half step Immortal rank zombies were faster than them. It was only a matter of time before they caught up.
This scene had also exceeded Ming Di's expectations. He had blown up Sacred Mountain to force out Demon Emperor and the old monsters that might be hiding. Secondly, he wanted to get rid of those zombies.
However, he did not expect that the Demon Emperor would be forced out, and he would even force out the Empyrean Fairy, who was beyond his expectations. However, what surprised him even more was that not all of the corpses were killed, and there were still more than ten of them left.
"Hi, beauty!"
Ding Ning was dragged along by Ming Di. He didn't have to use much energy. Seeing that Mysterious Fairy of Nine Heavens was fine, he even waved at her happily.
Mysterious Fairy of Nine Heavens didn't give him a friendly look. Of course, she had expended a lot of energy. Her face was flushed and she didn't have the energy to talk to him. She could only roll her eyes at him.
Ming Di thought that Ding Ning didn't know about Mysterious Fairy of Nine Heavens' identity and dared to tease her. He couldn't help but find it funny. He was waiting for Ding Ning to be humiliated.
However, Mysterious Fairy of Nine Heavens didn't flip out. She only rolled her eyes at him. This surprised Ming Di greatly. However, he soon noticed that Mysterious Fairy of Nine Heavens was pale and sweating profusely. Even her breathing had become rapid. He immediately realized that she had expended too much energy and was about to reach her limit. No wonder she didn't have the energy to deal with Ding Ning.
However, in the next moment, he saw Ding Ning suddenly extend his hand and said with a smile, "Come, hold my hand. I'll bring you to show off and fly."
This brat was really courting death. He even dared to tease the War Goddess. It would be strange if this violent woman didn't beat him up. If that happened, I wouldn't save you. Serves you right. How dare you peek at my daughter. As long as you don't die, I won't care.
Just as Ming Di was rejoicing in Ding Ning's misfortune, Mysterious Fairy of Nine Heavens' actions almost made his eyeballs fall out. Damn, what was going on? Could this War Goddess be a fake?
Because he saw that Mysterious Fairy of Nine Heavens, who had always been indifferent to her male idol, had reached out to hold Ding Ning's hand without hesitation.
