If You Pinned Me Down While I Was Asleep, and You Still Pin Me Down After I Wake Up, Then Didn't I Wake Up for Nothing?

"Call--"

A cool breeze, typical of early mornings, swept through the canyon.

The air still carried a lingering moisture and the smell of moss.

The sunlight slanted down onto his shoulders.

Hu Liena and Bai Chenxiang were both fast asleep, and Xie Yue was not breathing.

The spot where Qian Renxue was empty, with only moss marks left by footprints.

The Sky Dream Ice Silkworm, the Ice Empress, and the Snow Empress are also asleep.

An old man, One-Eye, Limping Leg, a superior, a young Soul Saint, and a veteran Soul Douluo —all lay down.

"The remaining divine power of seven First-Level God, no wonder it could make me fall into a dreamlike state."

Ye Hua stood up and patted Hu Liena's cheek.

"Wake up."

Hu Liena's eyelashes fluttered twice, and she looked around blankly. "When... did I fall asleep?"

"Don't you remember?" Ye Hua pulled her up, then reached out and lifted Bai Chenxiang up as well.

Bai Chenxiang rubbed his eyes, blinked, and reacted slowly, like Kapibala.

Ye Hua woke everyone else up one by one—his boss kicked them awake.

"Damn it, who kicked... well done!"

Sensing Ye Hua's unfriendly gaze, the superior trembled with fear.

But seeing their confused looks, Ye Hua shook his head.

Hey, my friend!

A day trip to the gates of hell!

Fortunately, they seem to have retained their memories.

With Ye Hua's prompting, she slowly recalled the events.

Everyone was filled with lingering fear and relief at surviving such a disaster.

Only the superiors were as if they had lost their parents.

Ye Hua explained the situation.

Upon learning of Qian Renxue's disappearance, the old man nearly collapsed!

Hu Liena trembled as she picked up Xie Yue and pressed her ear against his chest.

"His soul isn't in this body." Ye Hua crouched down, his fingertip touching Xie Yue's brow, tending to his body. "In a dream, he was switched."

This is why he was so certain it was a dream.

Xie Yue and Hu Liena were right beside him.

Stealing a soul is impossible if he's careful; he can't succeed.

It must have been after he entered the dream that the Seven Original Sin Gods seized the moment when he was distracted and switched his soul.

He filled his body with dark energy, attempting to deceive everyone, but was unexpectedly shattered by the power of the Golden Dragon King!

Hu Liena remained silent for a moment, then gently laid Xie Yue back down and carefully wiped the dust off his face.

At this moment, the boss was limp, weak, and helpless.

"It's over... it's all over..."

"Get up," the old man said bluntly.

"When you return, I will report every word of your actions to the Great Enshrined and His Holiness the Pope."

"I'm definitely going to investigate you thoroughly!"

The boss's face turned deathly pale instantly.

Xiao Wang, One-Eye, go up there and slap him!

Xiao Wang even kicked him in the back of the knee.

The superior fell to his knees amidst the rubble, his Soul Power casually sealed by Ye Hua, rendering him a cripple.

"You..." Blood trickled from the corner of his mouth as he tried to beg for mercy.

Xiao Wang stuffed the smelly sock into his mouth!

Just then, pressure descended from the sky.

Two figures tore through space and arrived at the Maze Grand Canyon.

"Na'er?"

"Di Tian?"

Gu Yuena stood in front, her silver hair cascading down to her waist, her white robes spotless.

Di Tian followed closely behind, and only breathed a sigh of relief when he saw that Ye Hua was alright.

"What brings you here?" Ye Hua raised an eyebrow.

Gu Yuena said irritably, "How dare you ask?"

"To frantically mobilize the Auspicious Beast's fortune is practically suicidal!"

"The entire destiny of the Soul Beast World is trembling!"

Do you think I should have come?

"So, you're worried about me?" Ye Hua tilted his head.

"Stop being so glib!" Gu Yuena glared at her. "Try saying that again!"

"You've come at the perfect time." Ye Hua's joking expression vanished. "There are remnants of Evil God Seven Original Sin Gods."

"There's another one, Titled Douluo Evil Soul Master who wants to break through to godhood by devouring divinity!"

"I want to fight, are you in or not?"

Gu Yuena pressed her knuckles against her chin, "The God of Original Sin? A direct descendant of the Destruction God King?"

"It's merely an inheritance; it has given birth to an independent consciousness, but its connection with the Divine Realm's original body has long been severed. Relying on its remaining divine power, it acts arrogantly and domineeringly."

Seeing that Di Tian still wanted to advise caution, Ye Hua spoke directly, "They want to kill me."

"Kill you?" Gu Yuena's eyes flashed dangerously. "Fight!!!"

When Di Tian saw that his master had spoken, he dared not hesitate to consider whether moving the inheritance would trigger the descent of the gods to the mortal realm.

Ye Hua turned around and beckoned to Hu Liena and Bai Chenxiang, "You two go out first."

"Tie Xiong will be there soon. Have him escort everyone to the outside of the canyon. Leave this to me."

As soon as he finished speaking, several Soul Power fluctuations of Titled Douluo lit up at the entrance of the canyon.

Tie Xiong took the lead, his heavy sword slung across his back, his dark red battle robe fluttering in the wind.

Behind him followed six Titled Douluo from the Long Night Alliance, lined up neatly.

Hu Liena hesitated for a moment, realizing that staying would only be a hindrance, so she decided to leave.

Bai Chenxiang nodded to Ye Hua and followed her.

Tie Xiong personally escorted them to Gengxin City before returning.

"All Titled Douluo of the Long Night Alliance, obey the Alliance Leader's orders!"

"Set off!"

A mighty force marches forth to vanquish the Evil God and head straight for the depths of the Maze Grand Canyon!

The dark forces that guarded it naturally surged forth upon seeing the intrusion.

"Superior!"

From the left, the Rattlesnake, the Ironclad Dragon, Nether Dark Tiger charged forward!

"Medusa's Gaze!"

"Sky-Piercing Hook Fist!"

"The Netherworld Howl!"

Bang!!!

The dark forces were shattered.

Ye Hua raised an eyebrow; it seemed that in reality, it wasn't that strong.

Only in the dream, he was granted [invincibility] by the Seven Original Sin Gods.

Darkness, unwilling to give up, launched another counterattack.

Tie Xiong drew his heavy sword and stood in front of Ye Hua.

"Let me do it." Ye Hua put his hand on his shoulder.

Tie Xiong obeyed the order and retreated.

Ye Hua raised his right arm.

The light from the Golden Dragon King's Left Arm Spirit Bone suddenly shone brightly!

A Gold Trial blade of light swept out!

"Dragon! King! Slay!"

The crescent-shaped golden light, like a hot knife slicing through butter, neatly split the darkness in the middle.

The light blade, its momentum undiminished, continued its advance, tearing apart the encroaching darkness and revealing the winding rock walls of the canyon.

Gu Yuena glanced at the golden light and took a deep breath.

It's only been a few days, and this freak seems to have mastered the World Laws!

Now, she can no longer suppress him with the World Laws!

"Walk!"

Ye Hua walked in the center, protected by the Long Night Alliance Di Tian.

However, a dark attack was launched, and they shattered it all!

They advanced unimpeded!

The darkness along the way was torn apart one after another!

In just half an incense stick's time, we arrived at the deepest part of the canyon!

Even so, the terrain is still narrow, but at the end is a waterfall.

Leng Yue sat alone beneath the waterfall.

He sat cross-legged, welcoming the rushing waters of the waterfall, his staff resting across his knees.

He looked older than the previous Corpse Puppet, with skin clinging to his bones and sunken eye sockets.

"Ah, it's Ye Hua."

He stood up, leaning on his staff, and stroked his white beard with a smile.

However, the next second--

Smack!

"Old Deng, how can you talk like that?"
