Chapter 1046: Doubts

Long Tianhuo did something even more terrifying to Jing Shen, destroying his tendons and muscles, causing him to suffer so much pain that he eventually fell unconscious. Even Zhu Ling and the spirit guardians were horrified by his actions. “Now you can take him away.”

Long Tianhuo immediately took out the flying artifact and took Feng Huang on it, and it shot at full speed out of the mysterious realm, leaving Zhu Ling and the others behind.

Zhu Ling then squatted down beside his advisor, and he was relieved because Jing Shen was still alive, especially since he didn’t want him to die just like that, and he still had to take responsibility for his betrayal of their race.

Zhu Ling then ordered one of the spirit guardians with the light element to move Jing Shen to one of the rooms in his flying artifact, and he also ordered him to preserve his life before they arrived in our realm. He then looked up at the sky, and he noticed something before asking. “Aren’t you still going to come out, Zhou Yu?

I know you’re always watching us from inside the void, so you can come out now.”

“Haha.” Zhou Yu laughed as she walked out of the void, but Zhu Ling raised his eyebrows as he sensed a man’s yang qi within her body, which he believed was Ling Yun’s yang qi. “Do you want to ask me about the Desolate Abyss Domain? Unfortunately, I don’t know anything about that place, especially since I don’t dare approach it.

As Long Tianhuo previously stated, that place is the most dangerous in the Supreme Realm, so I won’t risk my life by going there, especially since my death would be in vain.”

“Do you think I will believe you?” Zhu Ling shook his head in response. “Even though you’ve never been to that place directly, you’ve at least peeked at it through the void, right? Did you see my predecessor and previous demon emperor there?”

“I did peek at that place from inside the void.” Zhou Yu immediately admitted it before telling Zhu Ling anything else. “Unfortunately, there’s only darkness inside, and there’s something preventing my senses from checking it, so I don’t know whether they are there or not.

However, I can say for sure that the previous spirit emperor is indeed still alive, and the only way to find out the truth is to go to the Netherworld Realm, and you can ask Vadin directly about that matter.”

“Vadin, huh?” Zhu Ling muttered as he nodded in understanding. “In that case, I will bring them back to our realm to try Jing Shen, and I will lead them to attack the Netherworld Realm afterwards.”

“Huh?” Zhou Yu and the spirit guardians were shocked by Zhu Ling’s decision, but the spirit of void immediately warned him. “You’d better cancel your intention, especially now that Vadin’s cultivation has reached the high supreme god realm. Moreover, Vadin has several bodyguards who have also reached the supreme god realm, so it is impossible for you to openly attack them.

If you want to attack them, you’d better be patient and wait for Ling Yun to finish this tower, especially since he also intends to attack that realm to help one of his wives get revenge.”

“Hmm?” Zhu Ling raised his eyebrows at that. “Does Ling Yun also have problems with those demons?”

“Yes.” Zhou Yu responded to Zhu Ling with a nod. “One of Ling Yun’s wives was the daughter of one of the loyal followers of the previous demon emperor, and her family was massacred by Vadin. Moreover, that guy also tried to swallow her in the past, so she escaped from there, and he also brainwashed her elder sister.”

“I see.” Zhu Ling nodded in understanding. “Do you think Ling Yun can really complete this tower?”

“Tch!” Zhou Yu gritted her teeth instead. “Hey! You are my emperor, and you know my abilities very well, so you don’t need to question it, right? It is Ling Yun’s destiny to clear this tower, and I will help him do so.”

“Hey, Zhou Yu! Did something happen to Lin’er?” Zhou Yu quickly turned to Lei Zhong, who abruptly asked her. “Three months ago, I sensed something unusual, and I was sure that the source came from her.”

Zhou Yu sighed heavily before telling Lei Zhong the truth. “Currently, Lei is resting inside Ling Yun’s soul space, and she turned into a golden seed after she gave all her power to him.”

“What?” Lei Zhong shouted in shock after hearing that, especially since a golden lightning seed was their initial form, and it would take a long time for them to be able to reform their human form. Furthermore, even if they had returned to their human form, their strength would not immediately return, and it would also leave sequelae for them. “Why would Lin’er do that for Ling Yun?”

“You don’t know anything about your sister, especially since you repeatedly locked her up and forced her to focus on her cultivation just because you wanted her to be a spirit guardian like you, so big sister and I know her better than you.” Zhou Yu’s answer left Lei Zhong tongue-tied. “Lei has fallen in love with Ling Yun, and they have been intimate many times.

Frankly speaking, Jing Shen is not the only one who wants him dead; even the heavens want him dead, so they attacked him by manifesting themselves.”

Zhou Yu’s confession not only shocked Lei Zhong and the spirit guardians, but even Zhu Ling was shocked to learn that the heavens intended to kill Ling Yun, so he asked her. “What did he do to anger the heavens?”

“A few months ago, Ling Yun helped one of his wives breakthrough to the Saint Realm, especially since her physique was too weak to pass it by herself. Since then, the heavens have tried to kill him too many times, but they have always failed to kill him.” Zhou Yu sighed heavily before continuing.

“That’s why they manifested themselves when he broke through to the Saint Realm, and his lightning tribulations were too strong, so Lei gave her power to him to get through that stage.”

Lei Zhong became gloomy after hearing that, and he also felt angry at Ling Yun, especially since Lei Ling was his only sister, but she sacrificed herself for him.

“Hey!” Lei Zhong raised an eyebrow at Zhou Yu. “I can understand your feelings, but you really don’t need to worry about Lei. Ling Yun’s lightning tribulations are not ordinary ones, and he uses them to supply her with lightning qi. That’s why I’m sure that she will wake up sooner than you think, and you can meet her again in the future.”

“I hope so.” Lei Zhong then said to Zhou Yu. “Tell Ling Yun that if anything worse happens to Lin’er, I will definitely come to him and settle accounts. I may not be his opponent, but I will still fight him with all of my might.”

Zhou Yu only nodded to Lei Zhong because he knew his character very well, and he would definitely do anything to protect Lei Lin. “All right, you guys can leave now, and I should return to Ling Yun’s side.”

After that, the spirit emperor swiftly escorted them out of the mysterious realm, while Zhuo Yu continued to gaze at their flying artifact with a grave expression. ‘Did this end the three prophecies? Or could it be that Zhu Ling and Jing Shen were not the triggers of the second prophecy from the beginning?

We always thought that they were the triggers, and Lu Yi also sent the other leaders of the natural races here to stop them. However, they are both gone now, so I believe they are not the triggers, but who will be the triggers? Sigh, I have to discuss this matter with Ling Yun and Big Sis, especially since I’m not sure that the prophecies have stopped.’

After that, Zhou Yu immediately returned to Ling Yun’s side, who had already successfully cleared the 33rd floor with the help of all those cultivators, and they immediately rushed to the 34th floor.

On the flying artifact, Feng Huang suddenly spoke to Long Tianhuo. “Husband, I somehow have a bad feeling about our daughter, and I think that the three prophecies have not stopped, even though you have done that to Jing Shen. If my feeling is correct, which means that other people will trigger the three prophecies, and I suspect this is related to those evil people.”

“I’m also worried about Xiao’er, but I’m sure that Ling Yun and the others will protect them.” Long Tianhuo then looked back. “I’m also worried that those evil people will do something to our daughter if they know her identity, so I have ordered Yingtai and Qingguan to focus on protecting her.”

“How about you gather the others after we return to our realm?” Long Tianhuo immediately turned to Feng Huang. We must stop those evil people as soon as possible, and the only way is to unite to attack them.”

I will do it, but I doubt they will agree because it will create a power imbalance.” Long Tian said it with a nod. “Anyway, we will arrive at that realm in three hours, and I will bring Hundun to you directly.”
