Sending Word of Her Safety, Returning to Spirit City

As the light faded, the massive body of the Evil Eye Tyrant Overlord disappeared, replaced by a handsome young man dressed in black, whose eyes gave off an evil aura.

"Thank you, my Master."

The Evil Emperor bowed to Gu Yuena, but perhaps due to his injuries, his voice sounded weak.

Get up.

Gu Yuena gently raised her hand. "Wanwan's safety from now on is in your hands."

"If Wanwan is alright, then you are alright too."

"If anything happens to Wanwan, then you have no reason to exist."

Upon hearing this, the Evil Emperor immediately declared, "My Master, you can rest assured. Once my injuries have healed, Young Lady Wanwan's safety will be entirely entrusted to me."

"If anything happens to Young Lady Wanwan, I am willing to offer my head in retribution."

The Evil Emperor's voice was powerful and resonant, his eyes brimming with confidence.

As the patriarch of the Evil Eye Clan and the strongest in the Evil Spirit Forest, he was confident in this. After all, looking across the entire continent, the number of powerful individuals who were worthy of his attention and whom he could call his rivals could be counted on one hand.

"Ahem~"

"Evil Emperor, how long will it take for your injuries to fully heal?"

Bai Wanwan coughed lightly and asked the question.

"Fully recovered?"

"It won't be long, maybe a hundred or two hundred years, before I'm fully recovered."

The Evil Emperor answered very seriously.

A hundred or two hundred years is really not a long time in the eyes of powerful Spirit Beast.

After all, at their level, a single period of slumber would easily take more than a hundred or two hundred years.

"One hundred and eighty years?"

"That won't work; you don't have that much time to recover from your injuries."

Bai Wanwan shook her head at the Evil Emperor, then held up one finger, indicating that she could only give him this much time.

If we really have to wait a hundred or two hundred years to bring the Evil Emperor out of the Star Dou Great Forest, then it will have been too late by now.

"A year?"

"Then we should hurry, so we can recover some of our strength."

The Evil Emperor thought about it and realized that although a year was a bit too short, with Bi Ji's long-term treatment of his injuries, he could recover some of his strength.

"A year?"

"How could that be? I'm leaving the Star Dou Great Forest soon, so you'll probably have about an hour to recover."

Bai Wanwan looked at the Evil Emperor with a serious expression.

"One hour?"

The Evil Emperor stared blankly at Bai Wanwan, wondering if he had misheard.

He was almost slapped to the point of saying goodbye to the world by Gu Yuena back then, and now he's given only an hour to recover? Is this some kind of joke?

"Yes, one hour!"

"Let Bi Ji heal you first. We'll leave the Star Dou Great Forest in an hour, and then I'll find someone else to treat you, giving you ample time to recover."

Bai Wanwan nodded very seriously, indicating that she was not joking.

The Evil Emperor did not speak, but instead looked at Gu Yuena beside him.

If his injuries were fully healed, the Evil Emperor was confident that all those below his limit would be nothing but ants, and even Demigod would at most be his equals.

But given his current injuries, it's uncertain whether he'll even be in danger himself if he leaves the Star Dou Great Forest, let alone protect Bai Wanwan.

Noticing the Evil Emperor's gaze, Gu Yuena reached out and grabbed, and the life force emanating from the Lake of Life flowed continuously into the Evil Emperor's body, allowing his injuries to heal rapidly.

"One hour."

"Recover as much as you can, and then leave the Star Dou Great Forest with Wanwan."

Gu Yuena spoke softly.

Upon hearing this, the Evil Emperor agreed and then did his best to heal his injuries.

Time passed slowly.

An hour passed quickly.

Having barely recovered about 10% of his strength, the Evil Emperor got up from the ground and came behind Bai Wanwan.

After saying goodbye to Gu Yuena, Di Tian, and the others, Bai Wanwan hurriedly left the Star Dou Great Forest with the Evil Emperor, heading towards Suotuo City, the closest city to the Star Dou Great Forest.

Late at night.

Suotuo City.

On a somewhat dimly lit street.

Bai Wanwan led the Evil Emperor straight towards the Spirit Hall Main Hall.

Upon arriving at the Spirit Hall Main Hall, Bai Wanwan led the Evil Emperor directly inside.

Upon entering the Spirit Hall Main Hall, before Bai Wanwan could even reveal her identity, the bishop of the Spirit Hall Main Hall strode out.

"Young Lady... is it really you?"

"I'm so glad you're alright."

The Martial Soul Bishop looked at Bai Wanwan with great excitement in his eyes.

He finally found the Young Lady had been missing for three months, her fate unknown, and most importantly, Young Lady was still alive.

Send someone to bring me paper and a pen.

"Tell me about everything that happened while I was away."

Bai Wanwan gave the order and sat down in the main seat.

Following Bai Wanwan's instructions, the bishop personally fetched paper and pen, then stood in front of Bai Wanwan and began to recount everything he knew.

As Bai Wanwan listened to the bishop's sermon, she lowered her head and began writing Letter.

After the bishop finished explaining everything, Bai Wanwan had a general understanding of all that had happened during this period.

Since Bai Wanwan went missing, Qian Renxue immediately dispatched all her manpower and ordered the Spirit Hall in various cities to send people to search for her. Any Message or clues were to be reported immediately.

After searching for two months without any Message, Qian Renxue returned to Spirit City while continuing the search, instructing that any Message should be sent to Spirit City.

About half a month ago, the Fifth Elder, Guangling, left Spirit City and came to Heaven Dou City to personally search for Bai Wanwan's whereabouts.

Meanwhile, the various forces within Heaven Dou City were observing in secret. Unbeknownst to them, the rumors of Bai Wanwan's demise spread so rapidly that they reached almost the entire continent.

"Send this letter back to Spirit City as quickly as possible."

"As for the rumors about my demise, ignore them."

After handing the completed Letter to the bishop, Bai Wanwan got up from her seat and led the Evil Emperor out of the Spirit Hall Main Hall.

Although she didn't know who had spread the Message about her demise, it didn't matter to Bai Wanwan at all; after all, it was just a rumor.

When the time comes, as long as she shows her face in public, the rumors will naturally fall apart, and there will be no need to pay any attention to them.

"Yes."

The bishop picked up the Letter, watched Bai Wanwan's departing figure, and asked softly, "Young Lady, where are you going?"

Upon hearing this, Bai Wanwan paused slightly.

"Return to Spirit City!"

Bai Wanwan responded and led the Evil Emperor out of the Spirit Hall Main Hall, their figures gradually disappearing into the night.
