chilled to the bone. They saw that the membrane, formed by Shangguan Ruo's escaping spiritual energy, was also beginning to expand outwards!"This... how is this possible" Shangguan Rou was incredulou...Chapter 1260: Where's Wrong

Chapter 1260: Where is it Wrong

No problem.

The Demon Lord spoke, then slowly vanished.

Ye Fu Sheng also walked out of the cave and back to the original path.

He turned his head to gaze at the distant, gray-streaked mountain range, still unable to comprehend why there would be such a place in the Realm of Hell and such an existence. It was like a dream.

Judging from the hostility the Demon Lord just displayed, she has likely harbored ill intentions towards the Emperor of Fengdu for quite some time. The Emperor of Fengdu must surely be aware of her, but why hasn't he taken any action

This Demon Lord is not someone who is insignificant or unworthy of her effort. His power is at least equal to, if not even surpassing, the Ghost Emperor's. Is he truly a threat to him

Why tolerate her existence

"There's no going back."

Ye Fusheng withdrew his gaze, his face filled with bitterness.

Perhaps crossing the mountains could lead back to the mortal realm, but alas, the Demon Lord stands in our way, making it impossible to pass. Furthermore, the demonic energy residing within her body needs to be dealt with.

Walking back along the road, it was exactly the same as when we came. At first, there were few people, then more and more as we got closer to Fengdu City. By the time we reached the city gates, people had started lining up to enter.

Here, it has always been this way, unchanged throughout the ages.

Ye Fu walked at the front of the line, approaching the Ghost Messenger's sight. He veered towards the foot of the mountain and finally ascended a path until he reached the cave entrance.

Standing at the mouth of the cave, gazing out at the magnificent and imposing city of Fengdu, to be honest, the Emperor of Fengdu governs well. Things here are orderly and even more organized than in the mortal world.

"You threatened me with demonic energy, asking me to assassinate the Emperor of Fengdu. But why didn't you consider that I could directly challenge the Emperor of Fengdu and ask him to help me cleanse the demonic energy"

On his way back, Ye Fushen had already thought of a countermeasure. The Emperor of Fengdu was his benefactor, and no matter if he had the ability to take action or not, it was impossible to assassinate him.

Not only that, but they will also proactively point it out.

Back in the cave, I softly called out, "Emperor Fengdu, this junior has something to report."

I don't know if he could hear, but this was the only way. If he went into Fengdu City to search or shout, it would surely be heard by others, and there was no guarantee they wouldn't report it to the upper realm.

Slow and steady wins the race.

After waiting for a few seconds, there was no response.

His breath slowly leaked out, filling the cave.

"Once more, I say: Great Emperor of the Underworld, this junior has something to report. It concerns the Demon Lord over in the mountains."

As expected, there was a response.

The voice of the Emperor of Fengdu suddenly appeared in his ear: "She came to find you"

Ye Fu Sheng replied frankly, "This junior wants to return to the mortal world. I walked along the path, arrived at the mountains, and coincidentally met her."

The Lord of Fengdu fell silent for a moment. "Although the Three Realms are connected, they are not entirely so. Since you only have a soul and no physical body, you cannot enter the mortal world. Attempting to forcefully enter the Heavenly Dao would be unacceptable and quickly consume your soul until it dissipates."

Well, what did she say to you

Ye Fu Sheng frowned, understanding his words about the rapid depletion of a soul body. He knew that a soul body was yin in nature and appearing in the mortal world meant enduring scorching sunlight and the overwhelming yang energy of the mundane world.

But his words deliberately omitted "mountain".

Could it be that beyond those mountains lies the boundary between the underworld of Fengdu and the mortal realm

Just beyond the mountains, you can return to the mortal realm

"I withdrew my thoughts and replied, 'He injected demonic qi into my body, ordering me to assassinate you within three days. Otherwise, the demonic qi will erode me until I am completely gone.'"

The Emperor of Fengdu fell silent again, this time for a rather long duration, fully half a quarter of an hour.

Finally, she spoke. "Understood."

Ye Fusheng heard the tone of his words, about leaving, and couldn't help but feel a pang in his heart. He proactively said, "Then what about the demonic energy within my body"

"Powerless."

The Emperor of Fengdu said plainly, "Demonic Qi has already merged with your body. If you still had a physical form, I could forcefully separate it. However, as you are a soul, if I were to forcibly extract it, I'm afraid before I could even finish, you would have vanished into nothingness."

Ye Fusheng's mind buzzed, and he was helpless

No wonder the Demon Lord only left demonic energy in her body and didn't make things too difficult. It turns out she had calculated that she would confess to the Emperor of Fengdu, and knew that he was powerless

Wouldn't that mean we can only wait for death

"Is there another way" he asked urgently. "I can't just sit here and wait to die."

Mortal death: never see the face again.

Fengdu Death: All dimensions no longer exist.

Fengdu Great Emperor said: “She’s a madman. If you go to her, there might be a sliver of hope…”

Having said that, you could feel him about to leave and cease communication.

"Wait a minute..."

Ye Fusheng hurriedly tried to persuade him, he wasn't looking for this result! Going to the Demon Lord for answers What use would that be But before he could finish his words, the feeling in his ear vanished completely.

The Great Emperor of Fengdu has departed completely.

Ye Fusheng's body suddenly froze, a powerless anger welling up in his heart. In the mortal realm, even when facing those from the upper realms, he could remain composed. Especially after his Dao Heart breakthrough and reaching the half-step Human Emperor realm, those from the upper realms seemed like ants to him.

Now, I'm like fish on a chopping board, completely helpless.

"What can I do"

Ye Fusheng was somewhat disoriented. The Emperor of Fengdu couldn't cure him, and the Demon Lord had only given him three days. He didn't doubt that he would be completely destroyed in three days because normal people could never understand the thinking of a madman.

"Go ask"

This simply won't work.

The reason one becomes a demon is because their Dao heart has a problem. Taking this step to become a demon requires an unwavering persistence that ordinary people cannot understand. In short, once they have made up their mind about something, they will absolutely never go back on it.

Going to confront the Demon Lord would not only be ineffective, it could even anger her.

Ye Fusheng forced himself to calm down, because panicking would be useless and only cloud his judgment.

Sitting on the floor cushion, imitating Ye Wuji's posture from before, he faced the wall with his back to the cave opening.

"Run, impossible!"

"Impossible! "

"Fight, impossible!"

"Looking around, there are only dead ends."

"Actually, the fundamental way to change the problem is very simple, which is to improve one's own strength. If one can become as powerful as Ye Wuji, not to mention a small demon lord, even the Emperor of Fengdu would be unable to resist."

"The problem is, the soul body state can't be improved!"

Ye Fu Sheng's expression began to flicker, his thoughts unsettled.

"What realm is Ye Wujie ultimately"

Ye Fu Sheng thought of this problem again. Judging from his strength, he could punch through the underworld and stomp on the upper realm without a doubt. He was indeed the legendary Human Emperor Realm.

But in the mouths of the people of Daxia, he is nothing more than a god realm.

In the Ye family, he was a half-step martial god.

Why is there such a huge gap in strength between the Underworld and the Heavenly Realm, why do they become stronger when faced with strength

Ye Fusheng shook his head, no longer thinking about this problem. Because even if he figured it out now, it wouldn't help. It couldn't change the desperate situation.

He swiftly reached out and pulled out the *Nine Profound Scriptures* from his bosom. Everything in the world, under Heaven, was governed by the Nine Profounds. Even Fengdu appeared after this scripture, but its foundations still rested here. Perhaps there might be answers within.

As soon as he took out the Nine Profound Scripture, several sheets of paper fell out along with it. They were marriage certificates.

The marriage certificate was always with him, and when his body fell apart, it went with him to the underworld. It could be said that it was a burial item.

Seeing the wedding invitation, a bitter smile appeared on his face again. They were still waiting for him.

Especially the ninth fiancée, I haven't found her yet, and I don't know if there's a chance to meet her.

Put the marriage certificate back in her bosom.

Just put it back, and now I think something's still wrong...ntil he went to the Hundred Herbs Pavilion. She believed he was going to die there, and finally left.Later on, she got involved with Zhao Xilei, a counterfeit of the Baolong clan, who tried to seize e...
