Chapter 168 Like It Or Not? Long Time No See, Nan Lingyue!
Chapter 168 Like It Or Not? Long Time No See, Nan Lingyue!
However, it is said that after Ji Xiu left Snow Moon City, he drove the Kaka for less than a day and crossed almost the entire Nine Heavens Continent to arrive at Heavenly Demon Mountain!
Looking at the endless black mountains in front of him and the snowy plains behind the mountains, Ji Xiu felt a slight emotion in his heart.
"One year's time!"
"It feels like a lifetime!"
Ji Xiu took a deep breath.
A year ago, he had slaughtered countless people in Heavenly Demon Mountain, and now, a year later, he had returned here. Many people and things behind him had changed.
But this time, his destination was not the Divine Wood Forest or Zhou Yuan.
It was the supreme sect on top of the Demon Mountain in the depths of Heavenly Demon Mountain - the Supreme Heaven!
"Nan Lingyue!"
Ji Xiu muttered the woman's name under his breath.
His thoughts turned, and he began to slowly recall.
In the novel, there was little mention of what Nan Lingyue said, and even her ending was not written.
"She comes from Heavenly Demon Mountain!"
"She comes from the forbidden zone of the Nine Heavens!"
"She is exceptionally talented and ruthless!"
"It is precisely because of this that she will become the greatest antagonist in the Nine Heavens world, apart from myself!"
A few brief pieces of information flashed through his mind.
At this moment, Ji Xiu already had two rough guesses about Nan Lingyue in his heart.
"She might be the daughter of a former master of the forbidden zone in Heavenly Demon Mountain!"
"Or... she might be a master of the forbidden zone herself!"
"She has always been pursuing something..."
"Therefore... she will stop at nothing and never give up to achieve her goals!"
Ji Xiu murmured to himself. There were many possibilities about Nan Lingyue, and each one was not impossible.
As his thoughts turned, Kaka brought him to the boundary of Heavenly Demon Mountain, crossing the Shattering Void.
At this moment, a familiar figure, accompanied by seven demon elders, was waiting here.
"Mu Xuanyin!"
Ji Xiu raised an eyebrow. He didn't expect Mu Xuanyin to personally come and receive him.
"Ji Xiu!!!"
Mu Xuanyin smiled like a flower, fluttering towards Ji Xiu like a butterfly.
A beautiful woman in his arms.
The intoxicating fragrance filled his nose.
Ji Xiu gently held Mu Xuanyin for a moment, thinking that this girl was becoming more and more passionate.
"Your Majesty!"
"Long time no see!"
Mu Xuanyin raised her head, her beautiful eyes twinkling, and her red lips curved into a shallow arc.
As she spoke, the seven demon elders behind her all bowed slightly and respectfully said, "Greetings, Your Majesty!"
Hearing this, Ji Xiu glanced at the seven demon elders and was surprised.
The cultivation of these seven demon elders had actually reached the Legendary Level!
It should be noted that a year ago, there was only Luo Yuzhu, a Legendary Level powerhouse in the entire Supreme Heaven!
Hehehe!
Mu Xuanyin seemed to see through Ji Xiu's doubts and surprise. She held Ji Xiu's arm and whispered, "Ji Xiu!"
"Let me tell you a secret!"
"These seven are powerful beings from the Snow Old City in the Upper Realm Demon Domain!"
"But... now they are also part of our Supreme Heaven!"
"They work for our Supreme Heaven!"
Hmm?
Ji Xiu's expression froze.
Upper Realm Demon Domain, Snow Old City!
"So... Nan Lingyue actually has a connection with the Demon Domain Snow Old City!"
"But... what is the relationship between this woman and the Demon Emperor Lu Yuexi?"
"Why is she able to make the powerful beings from Snow Old City come to the mortal realm to help her in the Supreme Heaven?"
Ji Xiu murmured to himself.
He was becoming more and more curious about Nan Lingyue.
But he had a strange feeling that every time he thought he understood Nan Lingyue a little bit, when he got closer, he would find that there was still a fog in front of her, making it impossible to see through!
"Enough!"
"This time, I will finally have a conclusion with her!"
Ji Xiu took a deep breath and stopped thinking. With a firm determination, he headed towards the top of Heavenly Demon Mountain, where the clouds and mist were swirling, and the mountain stood tall and immortal, leading to Heavenly Demon Mountain.
.....................
Heavenly Demon Mountain, Supreme Heaven, Heavenly Palace!
Hundreds of bright lights were lit in the vast palace.
A huge alchemy furnace, resembling a small mountain, stood in the center of the palace.
The furnace was ancient, as if it had been washed by countless years, and it was covered with traces of time.
However, despite this, one could still see the intricate and mysterious runes carved on the furnace walls, as well as the strange scenes depicted...
Dragons falling... Gods perishing... The empress ascending to immortality... and a corner of a mysterious world, a world that seemed to be above the Nine Heavens in the Legendary Level - the Celestial Realm!
In front of the alchemy furnace.
Nan Lingyue stood with her hands behind her back, her unparalleled beauty devoid of any expression. Her beautiful eyes calmly surveyed the alchemy furnace before her, which emitted flickering lights.
Standing beside her was a tall figure dressed in green. Her features were exquisite, and her eyes revealed an endless charm. It is worth mentioning her pair of jade legs, long and shapely, with skin so fair and dazzling that it was extremely eye-catching.
She was none other than Luo Yuzhu, the Poison Empress.
"Your Majesty!"
"I have received news from Xuan Yin... She said that Prince Ji Xiu has arrived at Heavenly Demon Mountain!"
"Soon, he will come to the Celestial Realm!"
Luo Yuzhu respectfully reported to Nan Lingyue.
"Hmm."
"It has been a long time since I last saw that little guy!"
"To be honest, I really miss him!"
Nan Lingyue's red lips curled slightly, and her beautiful eyes shimmered with an unreadable light.
"Your Majesty..."
"Do you really want to treat Prince Ji Xiu like this?"
Luo Yuzhu sighed softly and pointed to the alchemy furnace in the center of the hall, asking in a low voice.
"Why not?"
Nan Lingyue swept her gaze over Luo Yuzhu and responded.
"This is what he owes me!"
Ten years ago, I told him."
"In the future, he belongs to me!"
"Now, it's time for him to repay me, isn't it?"
But...
Luo Yuzhu wanted to say a few words for Ji Xiu.
However, a cold light flashed in Nan Lingyue's eyes, freezing Luo Yuzhu in place. Her pretty face turned extremely pale.
"Your Majesty!"
"I spoke out of turn!"
Luo Yuzhu lowered her head, not daring to say another word. She could only feel sorry for Ji Xiu in her heart.
Hehe!
Nan Lingyue chuckled lightly at Luo Yuzhu's words. She looked at her with an interesting gaze and asked.
"Yuzhu, do you like that little guy?"
How is that possible!
Luo Yuzhu quickly shook her head.
She didn't have much contact with Ji Xiu, so it couldn't be said that she liked him.
But, it couldn't be denied that she did admire Ji Xiu. After all, before Ji Xiu, she had never seen such a stunning person.
"It's good that you don't!"
Nan Lingyue nodded in satisfaction, then took two steps forward and reached out her jade hand to pinch Luo Yuzhu's delicate chin, gently lifting it up.
She looked into Luo Yuzhu's eyes with a serious expression, and her red lips curved into a cold arc as she spoke.
"He belongs to me!"
"You belong to me too!"
"Without my permission, you are not allowed to like that little guy!"
"Do you understand?"
Understood...
Your Majesty!
Luo Yuzhu blushed slightly as she met Nan Lingyue's gaze and responded in a daze.
And at that moment...
Mu Xuanyin and Ji Xiu slowly walked into the heavenly palace.
"Master... Guess who's here?!"
Mu Xuanyin smiled and called out softly.
Nan Lingyue suddenly turned around.
Ji Xiu also looked over.
For a moment, their eyes met, and the atmosphere gradually heated up.
"Long time no see!"
"Ji Xiu!"
Nan Lingyue released Luo Yuzhu's chin, and a smile gradually appeared in her beautiful eyes as she looked at Ji Xiu.
"It's been a while!"
"Nan Lingyue!"
Ji Xiu took a deep breath and looked at the woman before him, who was both cold and unparalleled in beauty. His heart trembled slightly!
