Chapter 68
An invisible malice spread like tentacles, tightly binding Ye Zhenzhen. She vaguely saw a terrifying Devil Creature roaming in the shadows, its eyes gleaming with bloodlust.
"After all this effort, am I still going to die?" she thought in despair.
Don't blame Zhenzhen
She's just rebellious at heart and dislikes being restrained.
The people of the Demon Realm are too insidious; they taught her a profound lesson. Otherwise, she wouldn't have known that the human heart is a den of demons. Even if she didn't intend to harm others, they might still try to harm her.
Chapter 68
================
The Abyss of Darkness is the most evil and terrifying existence in the Six Realms.
In the beginning, this was an endless chaotic space that bred some ferocious beasts. Later, because the defeated side was thrown into the Abyss of Darkness every time the Demon Realm launched a coup, it became filled with Wicked Spirits.
Poisoned, Ye Zhenzhen had no idea how deep she had fallen. She felt as if her body was falling apart, alternating between hot and cold, and she was completely powerless. Her soul was about to be extracted from her body and torn apart by countless Devil Creature lurking in the shadows.
This was the first time she had experienced such despair since coming into this world.
It was pitch black all around her. Although she couldn't see clearly, she could sense the eerie white bones and broken souls all around her, trying to drag her down to hell with them.
"Am I going to die?" she couldn't help but wonder.
As her life drew to a close, she suddenly realized how much she loved this world in the book. She loved her parents, her First Senior Brother Second Senior Sister Little Junior Brother, and even her Third Senior Brother who had kidnapped her to the Demon Realm and stolen a kiss from her while she was eating Osmanthus Cake. She didn't want to go back to that cold, loveless world, not at all.
Suddenly, a beam of light broke the darkness.
He wore a bright red robe, like a hero in her life, illuminating this desolate world.
His robes fluttered in the fierce winds of the abyss, and the crimson hue, like the morning glow, fell into her eyes as the only light and hope in the cold, dark abyss.
She wanted to leave him, but he still came to save her.
Previously, to prevent her from escaping and being unable to find her, Ye Qingchuan left his aura on the black Dark Nether Pearl String he gave her. Following this aura, he followed her to the Abyss of Darkness at lightning speed, and jumped into the abyss without hesitation, finally finding her at the deepest part of the abyss.
He had originally intended to question her about why she had run away and why she had so heartlessly left him, but upon seeing her barely breathing, his heart felt as if it had been torn apart, aching terribly. He quickly went forward and picked her up, and after discovering she had been poisoned, he fed her a Universal Antidote Pill.
"Junior Sister, wake up!" He shook her arm vigorously, afraid that she would fall into a deep sleep and never wake up again.
"You've come." She tried to open her eyes, but couldn't. She tried to force a smile, but bitter tears slid down her cheeks.
This place is terrifying; she thought she was going to die just now.
Thankfully, he came.
She had never seen Ye Qingchuan so tall, yet he held her so steadily with just one arm; it was also the first time she had seen Ye Qingchuan so powerful, able to slay demons and destroy souls with a sword in one hand.
Smelling his familiar, cool fragrance and watching his determined figure protecting her, she felt at ease, and her fear of death gradually disappeared.
The Abyss of Darkness is unfathomable; it is easy to enter, but difficult to leave.
Ye Qingchuan released the Gale Black Dragon from Ye Zhenzhen's Dark Nether Pearl String to serve as their mount. The great black dragon carried them, like a bolt of dark lightning, rushing upwards from the deep bottom.
Despite their incredible speed, dangerous Devil Creature would occasionally sneak up and attack them.
A multitude of evil forces intertwined, transforming the abyss into a mutated furnace of life. The ferocious beasts within devoured countless Wicked Spirits, while many Wicked Spirits in turn devoured the beasts. The originally savage Abyssal Beast Species began to twist and deform, giving rise to all sorts of terrifying Devil Creature of various shapes and sizes.
A group of giant rats with blue faces and fangs tried to gnaw at their legs, but Ye Qingchuan killed them with a single sword strike;
Hundreds of vampire bats, with eyes like blood-red rubies and two sharp, long beaks, swarmed towards them greedily, intending to suck them dry. Ye Qingchuan threw out countless Weak Water Talisman, which turned them into ashes.
The most terrifying thing was the enormous, Ghost-Faced Thorn Beast. Its face was a hideous, monstrous expression, and its body was as hard as steel and covered with sharp thorns. It pierced through the great black dragon's body, and warm dragon blood flowed out. The bloody smell of the dragon blood quickly attracted more Devil Creature from the abyss. Thousands of mutated Devil Creature launched an attack on them at the same time, and it looked like they were about to tear the two people and the dragon to shreds.
Ye Qingchuan quickly took out Teleportation Talisman to avoid the Devil Creature, but he was still trapped in the abyss.
They were transported to a scorching desert, where the temperature was extremely high, the constantly rising heat made it difficult to breathe, and countless poisonous insects and snakes lurked in the shadows.
Because the great black dragon was injured, Ye Qingchuan could only put it back into the Dark Nether Pearl String and carry Ye Zhenzhen on foot across the desert.
In Ye Qingchuan's arms, Ye Zhenzhen felt as if her whole body was burning hot. Ye Qingchuan quickly suppressed his fiery Devil Qi and switched to cool Spiritual Qi, which made her feel a little more comfortable.
However, because he hadn't used his internal Spiritual Qi for many years, his spiritual power was driving him slower when he swung his sword, and he was accidentally Demon Serpent. After forcing the poison out, he felt much weaker and his steps became slower.
The two traveled through the desert for seven days and seven nights before arriving in a world of ice and snow.
The world changed from extreme heat to extreme cold. Ye Qingchuan quickly withdrew his Spiritual Qi and switched to warm Devil Qi, carrying Ye Zhenzhen across the ice.
It's so cold! Ye Zhenzhen nestled tightly against Ye Qingchuan's chest, drawing warmth from his body. The only warmth she felt in the entire world was from the Devil Qi he deliberately exuded, making her feel alive.
