Chapter 474
"Should we send someone to investigate?"
"Fellow Daoist is right, then please go and investigate!"
"I was just making a suggestion, why should I go?"
"If you're not going yourself, do you expect me to go? I don't even know her!"
"The storm has only just subsided; who knows if an even bigger storm is brewing..."
"Well..."
The crowd chattered and argued incessantly, each person displaying considerable worry and anxiety.
"Alright!"
Just then, a majestic voice suddenly rang out, instantly silencing the previously noisy square.
"You all stay here and don't wander off. I'm going there myself!"
Immortal King Chang Li took a step forward.
"Fellow Daoist Changli, I'll go with you!"
Lifeng Immortal King also stepped forward, his gaze resolute.
Immortal King Chang Li gave her a deep look and nodded.
Immediately, the two figures flashed and transformed into streaks of light, heading towards the boundless abyss.
"Immortal King Chang Li and Lifeng Immortal King went together, the danger should not be too great. We will stay here and wait for their return."
"Our cultivation levels are too low; we wouldn't be of much help if we went. We might as well wait here."
"Yes, this is the safest way!"
The immortals began to whisper among themselves.
Hearing these private comments, Luo Qianhua was furious. She had never seen such shameless people.
"These people are truly shameless! His Highness went to fight the storm so that they could survive. Now that the storm has subsided, instead of going out to help search for people, they're making sarcastic remarks!"
Luo Qianhua gritted her teeth.
"Oh..."
Lin Wanqiu shook her head and said calmly, "It's only human nature to seek advantage and avoid harm. Xiu'er doesn't need to lower herself to their level."
"His Highness is exceptionally talented; how could he be defeated by a mere storm? He should be on his way back now, Xiu'er need not worry too much."
"Of course I know His Highness will return safely, but I'll make them regret it sooner or later!"
Luo Qianhua sneered.
"Don't create unnecessary complications."
Lin Wanqiu reminded him.
"Don't worry, I'll consider the approach."
"Well..."
On the other side.
After Immortal King Chang Li and Lifeng Immortal King left the asteroid, they were initially able to determine their location, but as they got farther and farther away from their base, they gradually lost their ability to identify directions.
Unlike Xiao Minghuang ventured deeper into the storm and moved in the direction of stronger storm pressure according to the intensity of the storm's pressure, they did not.
When Changli and Lifeng went out this time, the surroundings were completely silent and dark, with nothing that could be identified. They could only see a few miles away with their naked eyes, and the Great Dao Power had no effect whatsoever.
At first, Immortal King Chang Li carried some talismans that could leave marks, but as they went deeper, they used up all of them.
As time went by, the Immortal Dao Law within their bodies were also being continuously depleted.
"We set off in too much of a hurry!"
"Sigh... it's too late to say all this now..."
Knowing that this was not the time for sighs and complaints or mutual blame, the two women remained silent and continued moving forward in the direction they had chosen.
In this dark abyss, there is no Sun, Moon, and Stars; no air; no Spiritual Qi; nothing but extreme darkness and icy cold.
"My Immortal Dao Law are almost exhausted."
The Lifeng Immortal King's expression was solemn.
Beside her, Immortal King Chang Li also looked grave. Although she was slightly better off than Lifeng Immortal King, it was only a matter of time before she exhausted her immortal Immortal Dao Law.
Give me your hand.
Suddenly, Immortal King Chang Li spoke, reaching out to grasp Lifeng Immortal King's jade wrist.
"Buzz--!"
Instantly, a surge of pure Immortal Dao Law flowed into the body of Lifeng Immortal King.
Her delicate body trembled as she felt a surge of vibrant life force.
Clearly, Immortal King Chang Li shared a portion of his own laws with himself.
"Thank you, fellow Daoist..."
The Lifeng Immortal King blushed slightly, somewhat embarrassed.
"No need to be so polite," Immortal King Chang Li Changli chuckled. "I'm a few years older than you, so if you don't mind, you can just call me 'elder sister.'"
"Then... Sister Changli..."
Lifeng Immortal King smiled faintly, without refusing.
Asteroid habitat.
Many immortals waited for a long time, but neither Immortal King Chang Li returned.
"Ah... what's going on? Why haven't we heard from Immortal King Chang Li and Lifeng Immortal King for so long? Could they have gotten lost too?"
"Now things are really bad. We haven't found Ziwei Immortal King, and Immortal King Chang Li and Lifeng Immortal King have also disappeared..."
"Immortal King Chang Li is our leader. If something really happens to her, it will be difficult for us to go back!"
Many immortals were filled with fear and unease.
"Calm down."
"Immortal King Mo Chen frowned and said."
"Immortal King, look, this is..."
Suddenly, one of the Celestial Kings' expressions changed drastically, and he cried out in surprise.
The other immortals also all looked towards the void.
In the pitch-black universe, a dazzling, crystalline thread, like a white rainbow, shot out from the depths of space and landed directly above the Guanghan City's encampment.
Soon, the light dissipated, revealing two stunningly beautiful figures.
The leader was dressed in a gold and red dress, with an exceptionally beautiful face. The other person was dressed in a pale yellow dress; they were none other than the Ziwei Immortal King and his Immortal Queen.
Their appearance caused a sensation.
568. Lord of the Four Seas
"It's the Ziwei Immortal King and his wife!"
"They're back safe and sound!"
"But... what about Immortal King Chang Li and Lifeng Immortal King? Didn't they come back together?"
The crowd rushed forward, discussing the matter animatedly.
Immortal King Mo Chen approached, frowning, and asked, "Fellow Daoist Ziwei, have you encountered Chang Li and Li Feng?"
Upon hearing this, Xiao Minghuang realized that something was wrong.
"After I calmed the storm, I hurried back to my post, and I didn't encounter anyone along the way."
The Purple Star Immortal King's expression darkened slightly, a sense of foreboding creeping in. He asked, "Did Changli and Fellow Daoist Lifeng go out? Could something have gone wrong?"
"They went out looking for you..."
"Immortal King Mo Chen sighed."
"Ah... this..."
Xiao Minghuang's expression immediately darkened.
She knew, of course, that Outer Deep Space was fraught with danger and that she should never act alone.
The reason they organized a large number of people was not because they needed these true immortals and immortal lords to play a significant role, but simply to use them as human landmarks to mark the void and prevent the immortal king from getting lost when he went out.
"Are there only the two of them, and no one else?"
Immortal King Mo Chen closed his eyes and did not respond.
Although she didn't answer, Xiao Minghuang already understood. She turned her gaze and swept it over the group of immortals, and saw pairs of eyes filled with panic and fear.
"Snort!"
Xiao Minghuang snorted coldly.
In an instant, all the immortals trembled and knelt on the ground, not daring to raise their heads, only trembling and not daring to utter a single word of rebuttal.
Without saying a word, she turned and left.
"Your Highness, wait for me!"
Ye Ruoshui quickly followed.
The two flew off towards the outer realms again, one after the other.
The encampment was deathly silent. Many immortals stood with their heads bowed, not daring to breathe.
"Hmph! These scoundrels, Your Highness has let them off too easily by not teaching them a lesson!"
Luo Qianhua snorted coldly.
"They had no connection with us to begin with, and it's only natural for them to seek advantage and avoid harm."
Lin Wanqiu sighed softly.
"If the opportunity arises, I will make a move."
Sheng Bailan suddenly spoke up.
Hearing this, Lin Wanqiu smiled wryly and said, "Sigh, you all... really..."
Outer Deep Space.
A streak of light darted through the pitch-black void at incredible speed.
It was Xiao Minghuang and Ye Ruoshui.
"Your Highness, you just now..."
Ye Ruoshui hesitated, as if she wanted to say something but then stopped.
She wanted to say, why not teach those despicable people a good lesson...
"It's human nature to seek advantage and avoid harm; we should just focus on doing our best."
Xiao Minghuang said calmly.
"Your Highness is so magnanimous, I'm afraid they won't be grateful, but will instead become even more rude."
Ye Ruoshui shook her head, feeling quite resentful.
She can't stand injustice and is extremely intolerant of such unfairness.
"Never mind."
