Chapter 78
"Ba, I know I wronged you back then. This is Divine Recording Stone Yellow Emperor took out the Divine Recording Stone he had treasured for many years and handed it to her. "Alright, I've completed my last task. I can finally leave in peace."
"I don't want to see it! I don't want this broken stone!" Just like when he was a child, Evil Drought Demon threw the Divine Recording Stone at the phantom of the Yellow Emperor. "I hate you! I'll make sure you never have peace of mind!"
With a deep sigh, the phantom was shattered, and the last wisp of the Yellow Emperor's Divine Sense completely dissipated into the world.
A sinister smile hung on Evil Drought Demon's face, yet tears streamed down his face.
The image -Recording Stone Divine Recording Stone of the Divine Realm are different from those of the Cultivation World; they are indestructible and can preserve their images perfectly for thousands or tens of thousands of years. How could such a precious divine object be thrown away like that?
"How about... we take a look at this Divine Recording Stone?" Ye Qingchuan had a feeling that there might be some untold story behind it.
"I won't look!" Evil Drought Demon's resentment hadn't subsided as he said viciously, "No matter what he did, I will never forgive him in this lifetime. Never!"
Evil Drought Demon: Why don't you just treat me like her...?
Ye Qingchuan: What kind of inappropriate and lewd words are these?
Handsome guys, you need to take good care of yourselves when you're out and about, hahaha.
Chapter 78
================
"Now that we have the Soul-Gathering Lamp, let's extract Zhenzhen's Divine Soul now." Ye Qingchuan couldn't wait to separate Ye Zhenzhen from the Evil Drought Demon's Spiritual Platform and make her an independent individual.
"You're dreaming," Evil Drought Demon said, glancing at him sideways. "But why would I do that?"
"Goddess, didn't you promise me before?"
"But you also promised that you would do whatever I asked of you." A sinister glint flashed in Evil Drought Demon's eyes. "As long as you help me destroy the Six Realms, I will return Ye Zhenzhen to you. Since the Cultivation World dared to plot against me, I will make them pay a bloody price and be the first to destroy the Cultivation World."
"Husband, don't agree to her, please don't agree to her! Otherwise you will truly fall into the demonic path and never be able to turn back from the abyss of darkness!" Ye Zhenzhen cried out in desperation, desperately calling out in the Evil Drought Demon's Spiritual Platform, but Ye Qingchuan could hear nothing.
"Okay." Ye Qingchuan was silent for a moment before agreeing.
*
Cloudsky Mountain.
People from the Five Great Sects, the Southern Gate and Northern Sect, and Aristocratic Clan of cultivators gathered together.
"Evil Drought Demon has been severely injured by my Radiant Sun Evil-Breaking Formation, and its strength must have been greatly diminished. It is probably hiding somewhere to recuperate. Why don't we press our advantage, mobilize the power of the entire Cultivation World to find Evil Drought Demon, and completely eliminate it to prevent it from causing havoc on the Six Realms?" The head of the Kunshan Tang Family said leisurely.
The others readily agreed, saying that the opportunity was too good to pass up and that they should strike while the iron was hot.
Ye Qinghui, the Immortal Venerable, had just announced the mobilization of the entire Cultivation World to search for Evil Drought Demon when he heard a burst of arrogant and conceited laughter:
"Hahahaha, you think you can kill me?"
"Evil Drought Demon, we've been looking for you! You dare to deliver yourself to our doorstep! Prepare to die!" The head of the Kunshan Tang Family assumed a fighting stance, ready to activate the Radiant Sun Evil-Breaking Formation once more.
"Ridiculous. Do you think I'll fall for your tricks a second time?" A black light flashed from Evil Drought Demon's fingertips, and a powerful force capable of overturning mountains and seas surged forth, killing the head of the Kunshan Tang Family instantly and sending his body flying thousands of meters away.
"Patriarch!" The members of the Kunshan Tang Family rushed to search for their patriarch's body.
Her actions provoked the wrath of the crowd, and all the cultivators gathered around, unleashing Sword-Ray and throwing Law Artifact, trying to join forces to kill her.
Evil Drought Demon retreated to the side, a black protective barrier rising around him. He even conjured up a Beauty Couch, crossed his legs, and leaned back on it, watching with amusement as everyone threw out various Law Artifact in an attempt to break through the barrier.
"Ye Qingchuan, didn't you promise me you'd destroy the Cultivation World? Now your chance has come." She beckoned to Ye Qingchuan, "First, help me eliminate everyone here, and then I'll help you extract Ye Zhenzhen's Divine Soul."
Looking up, Ye Qingchuan saw many familiar faces: Lu Lingxuan, the young master of the Spirit Sword Manor; Lei Jiajia of the Heavenly Thunder Pavilion; Jiang Wan of the Immortal-Ending Hall; and... his master's wife Xie Jingshu, his First Senior Brother Ye Qinghui, and his Second Senior Sister Ye Qingyao...
He could bring himself to kill others, but when it came to his master's wife and senior sister—people he had once been close to—his hand gripping the sword hesitated repeatedly. He kept silently repeating "for Zhenzhen" in his heart, steeling his resolve to kill the innocent bystanders first.
"Chuan'er, you can't do this!" Xie Jingshu rushed over to stop him.
"No, Master's wife, I have to do this to save Zhenzhen. This is a deal between me and Evil Drought Demon." Ye Qingchuan kept swinging his sword, his eyes bloodshot as he fought through the crowd, but Xie Jingshu shielded him with her body. "Chuan'er, you can't make another mistake and commit more killings. Evil Drought Demon is not trustworthy, and Zhenzhen will never agree to you doing this for her!"
"Master's wife, please don't force me." Ye Qingchuan pointed the tip of his sword at Xie Jingshu, his hand holding the sword trembling, but he desperately wanted Ye Zhenzhen to come back.
"Kill her! Kill her now!" Evil Drought Demon suddenly rushed over, her face contorted with madness, excitedly urging. She was already jealous of Ye Qingchuan's love for Ye Zhenzhen, and also jealous of Ye Zhenzhen having Parents loved her unconditionally. Even if she brought Ye Zhenzhen back one day, she would make sure Ye Zhenzhen with nothing, just like her.
"You can't kill my mother!" Ye Zhenzhen shouted with all her might within Evil Drought Demon's Spiritual Platform.
At that moment, Ye Qingchuan seemed to hear her familiar voice and couldn't help but ask, "Zhenzhen, is that you?"
Xie Jingshu also heard Ye Zhenzhen's voice. "Zhenzhen, so you're here." She gave Xie Ba a loving smile in the direction of his Evil Drought Demon Spiritual Platform, then grabbed Ye Qingchuan's Tai Chang Sword and plunged it into her own body.
