The Fall of Ice Cold Palace!
The suffering we are enduring now is nothing more than a little hardship.
One day, I, the Heavenly Emperor, will ascend to the pinnacle of the world!
Overlooking countless living beings!
Upon hearing this, Luo Lingshuang laughed in anger.
He looked at Zhang Hongzhan and the others and said:
"Father, Mother, Third Brother, please be careful on the road."
I'm going to teach that kid a lesson!
After saying that, he picked up Zhang Dexiao and headed towards the Profound Heaven Villa.
"Hahaha, no, Mom, hahaha..."
After Luo Lingshuang left with Zhang Dexiao, the Zhang Family members all wore helpless smiles.
This kid is a hundred times more mischievous than Zhang Xuanchen was when he was a child.
Zhang Xuanbing looked at Zhang Xuance and said:
"Xuan Ce, let's go."
"Alright, Third Brother." Zhang Xuance replied, channeling his spiritual power into the core of the Azure Cloud, which then slowly ascended into the air.
It flew towards the Azure Sea Domain.
After the Azure Cloud disappeared from sight, Zhang Detian called to the elders and said:
Let's go.
To summarize, here is a summary of the net proceeds from this Auction, as well as the major issues and problems encountered.
"Yes, Young Patriarch!"
Since the auction of the Demon-Seeking Pearl ended, the Zhang Family has entered a period of stable development.
With the assistance of high-level inheritance, major halls such as the Sacred Pill Hall, Divine Weapon Hall, and Hundred Herbs Hall are making rapid progress.
After breaking through to the Golden Core Mid Stage, Zhang Zujun plunged into the alchemy room and began refining pills day and night.
This lays a solid foundation for refining the Golden Core Pill.
He was well aware of the importance of Alchemy Master to the development of a power.
Although Ren Shian has a good talent for alchemy, he is still young and his cultivation is still shallow. At present, he can only refine Second-tier Top-grade pills.
It's still far from being Third Stage.
He is the only one capable of refining high-level pills.
If you lack talent, then make up for it with hard work!
If you can't kill yourself by training, then train until you die!
In addition, the Zhang Family's Dark Hall and the Xuanxiao Merchant Guild are also continuously expanding within the Heavenly Dragon Sea Domain.
Three years later.
Heavenly Dragon Sea Domain, Northern Territory.
Amidst the swirling snow, a sense of desolation pervades the scene.
The Ice Cold Palace!
The Main Hall.
Supreme Elder Dou Yuan.
Palace Master Ling Yun.
All six elders of the Ice Cold Palace have gathered here!
In the center of the Main Hall, a middle-aged man, his hands and feet bound by Spirit-Locking Cuffs, disheveled and covered in blood, knelt on the ground.
His bloodshot eyes swept across the necks of everyone in the hall.
He licked his lips!
It kept making swallowing sounds!
The next moment, the voice of Ling Yun's judgment echoed throughout the hall:
"Dou Bi!"
You've hidden it so well!
It took my Ice Cold Palace three years, relying on the Demon-Seeking Pearl, to finally find you!
That's a brilliant tactic!
If it weren't for the Seventh Elder risking his life to deliver this message to us, we wouldn't have known you had been possessed by the Demon Seed!
"In the past ten years, you've killed all 372 people who died in my Ice Cold Palace, haven't you?"
"It's truly a case of the blind being right under the lamp!"
This palace master has suspected the Snow Werewolf Clan and the Savage Beast Clan, but never a beast like you!
Upon hearing this, Dou Bi stopped pretending, and his fangs slowly emerged.
Two pairs of Blood Wings burst forth from his back, and a Blood Demon power erupted from within him!
To break the Spirit-Locking Cuffs binding the wrists and ankles,
But there was nothing they could do.
But there was no fear on his face. Instead, he sneered, looked at Dou Yuan whose eyes were filled with complex emotions, and his deep, hoarse voice echoed in the hall:
"Father, my dear father, our Palace Master is calling you a beast."
Why didn't you kill him?
Why not kill him?
Haha... Hahaha...
Dou Bi's eerie laughter echoed in the hall, his expression growing increasingly ferocious.
Why not kill him!
Ah?!
Don't you love me, your son, the most?
What's wrong with me today?
Years ago, you discovered that the woman you gave me had been taken by me, but you didn't expose me.
This is proof that you've forgiven me.
Why can't it work now?
Are you going to join these guys who call you an animal in killing me?
Human emotions are truly complex.
Ha ha ha ha..."
As he spoke, Dou Bi burst into laughter again.
They were laughing wildly!
Upon hearing this, Ling Yun suddenly looked at Dou Yuan!
Clang!
The Ice Cold Palace's Sect-Suppressing Spirit Artifact was suddenly unsheathed!
An extremely cold Sword Intent emanated from Ling Yun's body!
The sword tip is pointed at Dou Yuan!
He said in a low voice:
Dou Yuan!
You dare to withhold information out of personal gain!
Do you intend for my entire Ice Cold Palace to become food for Devil Creature breaking through their cultivation levels?
He was furious.
Over the past ten years, Dou Bi, who was possessed by Demonized Creature, has seen his cultivation level rise all the way to the Golden Core Peak!
The Ice Cold Palace deployed all its elite forces, losing two Golden Core cultivators and severely injuring six others before they could barely subdue him.
What if this beast breaks through to the Nascent Soul stage?
Is there any way out for anyone in the Ice Cold Palace?
Dou Yuan did not refute, but simply closed his eyes in anguish.
Two streams of hot tears flowed down his wrinkled face.
His voice trembled, "I'm sorry, I really didn't expect things to turn out this way."
I just don't want my son to die like this...
"Hmph! I can't be bothered to listen to your nonsense!" Ling Yun sneered. "Let's kill this Demon Lord first!"
Have you said it?
He swung his extremely cold Ice Sword fiercely!
A sword blade imbued with the Ice Sword slashed straight at Dou Bi!
Upon seeing this, Dou Bi showed horror!
No! No!
Father, Father!
"I don't want to die..."
Pfft!
The blade pierced straight through his chest.
Black blood stained his entire body amidst the gruesome scratches.
Life quickly faded.
Dou Bi, staring in disbelief at the wound on his chest.
He collapsed to the ground with a thud.
The Blood Wings on his back disappeared, and his body slowly returned to its original appearance.
Only the demonic markings on his face had not yet faded.
With only a breath left, he struggled to look at Dou Yuan, who was sitting to Ling Yun's left, his eyes tightly closed and his body trembling.
His voice was no longer harsh and hoarse, but returned to the familiar, aged voice that everyone knew.
He cried out weakly:
"Father... Father, it's me, it's Dou Bi."
I know I was wrong, but I'm going to die anyway...
"You... you come closer, I'll tell you... I'll tell you a secret..."
While he was speaking, he secretly used Bewitching Art to immerse Dou Yuan in memories of family affection, thus eroding the last vestiges of reason in Dou Yuan's mind.
Sure enough, after saying that...
Dou Yuan, who had initially been wary, was now completely flustered.
He immediately got up, wanting to hear his son's last words.
Upon seeing this, Ling Yun grabbed Dou Yuan's wrist!
Dou Yuan! You've gone mad!
He's Demon Lord! He's got a death wish!
However, Dou Yuan had already lost his mind!
He forcefully shook off Ling Yun!
Eyes wide open in anger!
He roared angrily, "Ling Yun! Get out of my way!"
Don't I even have the right to hear my son's last words?!
Ah!
If you dare lay a hand on me again, I'll tear down this Ice Cold Palace!
"But..."
No buts!
He is my son; blood is thicker than water!
He won't kill me!
After saying that, he flashed and appeared beside Dou Bi.
He knelt on the ground and lifted him up, "Son... son, I'm sorry, it's my fault for being useless and failing to protect you, which is why you were possessed by the Demon Spirit..."
A flash of red light appeared in Dou Bi's eyes, and he said weakly:
"I don't blame you, Father; it was my own ignorance."
"Come closer... I'll tell you... a secret..."
