Having annihilated the Shadow King's clone with a single blow, and seeing the unconscious Little Bell, Su Xiuyi's brows furrowed in that instant.
Su Xiuyi picked up Little Bell and disappeared.
······
"Um?"
Within the imperial city, the Shadow King lost another clone. He shuddered, a cold glint appearing in his eyes.
"His clone is dead. It seems this guy has an extremely close relationship with Su Xiuyi, otherwise he wouldn't have saved Tie Ling. After all, Tie Ling has nothing to do with him, yet he took such good care of Tie Ling. Such a person is definitely loyal. Why didn't he appear when Su Xiuyi self-destructed that day? Was he still absent?"
" Su Xiuyi has been dead for so many years, yet she still stays at the Southern Heaven Academy. She must be an extremely loyal person, otherwise she wouldn't have stayed there all this time without leaving."
"But if the other party is a loyal and devoted person, they would surely go mad after their master dies. Yet they have remained completely still in Southern Heaven City all these years without making a move. Is it because they feel their strength is insufficient, or is there some other conspiracy?"
"Is Su Xiuyi really dead?"
"If she's not dead, then Su Xiuyi is terrifying. I have to be careful."
"A young man who can even deceive His Human Emperor is terrifying in character."
"I hope that, as His Majesty the Human Emperor said, he has already perished!" The Shadow King's expression was extremely grim. After a sigh, his body disappeared.
In a courtyard in Southern Heaven City, the Corpse Servant stood quietly in the distance. Su Xiuyi silently looked at the unconscious Tie Ling in front of her, a look of kindness appearing in her eyes. Su Xiuyi was waiting for Tie Ling to wake up.
After much consideration, Su Xiuyi Tie Ling to let Tie Ling join the Blood Slaughter Tower.
Since the other party has made a move, whether it was a test or not, Tie Ling is now caught in this vortex. It is absolutely impossible for her to escape. If she does not enter the Blood Slaughter Tower and is left unprotected, she will surely die. Su Xiuyi knows that people like the Great Zhou Emperor can disregard even bloodlines, let alone an unrelated person.
These past few days, Su Xiuyi had been observing, knowing that Tie Ling would never trust the Corpse Servant and obediently join the Blood Slaughter Tower, so Su Xiuyi had no choice but to meet with Tie Ling.
"Um?"
As Su Xiuyi waited, Little Bell on the bed suddenly twitched her fingers and slowly opened her eyes.
Upon discovering that the scene before her eyes was extremely unfamiliar, Tie Ling reflexively became alert.
But when his gaze fell on Su Xiuyi by the bedside, his beautiful eyes were filled with disbelief.
"Impossible?"
Am I dreaming?
Tie Ling witnessed Su Xiuyi self-destruct in front of the Great Zhou Emperor's clone that day. How could someone who is dead come back to life?
" Little Bell, wake up!"
"Don't be afraid, I'm Xiuyi!"
A kind smile appeared on Su Xiuyi's lips.
"Grandpa Su?"
Upon hearing Su Xiuyi's words, Tie Ling was terrified. She knew this wasn't a dream, but reality.
"Grandpa Su, you're not dead! That's wonderful! I knew you wouldn't die!" Tie Ling threw herself into Su Xiuyi's arms. To be precise, Tie Ling had only truly seen Su Xiuyi when Su Xiuyi was fighting against the Great Zhou Emperor. However, since she was very young, Tie Ling had followed Tiezhu and always visited Su Xiuyi. In Tie Ling's heart, Su Xiuyi was her only family.
"Um."
"Grandpa Su didn't die; he just used some tricks to fake his death!"
"After all, I'm no match for Su Tianlong!"
Su Xiuyi patted Tie Ling on the shoulder.
" Xiuyi, you shouldn't have seen me. I'm weak, and if someone captures me and searches my soul, it will expose your whereabouts!" Tie Ling suddenly realized this, her eyes filled with terror. She didn't want her last close friend to die because of her exposure.
"It's alright. You don't need to go to the academy anymore; it's not safe there. Just stay by Shi's side. He's at the Invincible Realm. Although he doesn't cultivate Dao of the Sword, he can guide you without any problem."
Su Xiuyi smiled faintly.
"Um!"
Tie Ling was extremely intelligent. After hearing Su Xiuyi's words, she naturally guessed what had happened. Moreover, having an Invincible mentor was simply unimaginable.
Su Xiuyi were out of desperation. The only people who knew he was alive were the Corpse Servant and Little Bell. Su Xiuyi didn't even go to see Zhou Yunlong, who had risked his life for her.
" Tie Ling greets Senior!"
Tie Ling hurriedly stood up and immediately bowed to the Corpse Servant.
In Tie Ling's eyes, the Invincible Realm was an extremely powerful existence.
"Miss, no need. I am merely my master's servant. You can just call me Corpse." Corpse Servant supported Tie Ling, not daring to accept Tie Ling. Su Xiuyi valued Tie Ling highly, otherwise she wouldn't have personally intervened.
"Then, Little Bell, you can call Senior Corpse Grandpa!" Tie Ling glanced at Su Xiuyi and smiled.
"Good!"
The Corpse Servant did not refuse.
" Little Bell, go and rest."
"My master and I have something to discuss!" The Corpse Servant smiled slightly and left the room.
Su Xiuyi followed them out.
Upon seeing Su Xiuyi emerge, a solemn expression appeared on the Corpse Servant's face.
"Corpse, what happened?"
Su Xiuyi was also quite surprised, as the Corpse Servant rarely had such a solemn expression.
"Reporting to Master, according to the information we at Blood Slaughter Tower have received, the royal family has secretly instigated several major clans of the Blood Demon lineage to prepare to exterminate the Wang Clan's power in the army. Wang Cheng and his son will likely not escape death. According to our information, the Blood Demon lineage has four invincible Invincible. I alone cannot withstand them," the Corpse Servant hurriedly replied.
"Um?"
"Are they trying to get back at Brother Wang Po?"
"His master, Wang Lin, is also his master."
"Brother Wang Po is Master's son!"
In that instant, Su Xiuyi's expression turned icy cold, and the surrounding plants withered and died.
Su Xiuyi naturally knew that Wang Cheng's fall into the hands of the Blood Demon Race last time was definitely not a coincidence, and there must have been some secret collusion with the Blood God Race.
At this moment, Wang Po's face appeared in Su Xiuyi's eyes. Wang Po had practically grown up in the army, and she didn't know him well, but Su Xiuyi was furious about the Great Zhou Emperor's decision.
"I'll go with you. I want to see what kind of beings they are!"
Su Xiuyi's voice turned icy cold in that instant.
······
Within the Blood Demon Mountain Range, within the Holy Python Race, countless Blood Demon roamed. Among them, four auras emanated from them, exuding an extremely terrifying power, seemingly four Invincible beings.
The Four Invincible naturally represent the four major Demon Race. Behind the Four Invincible stand many great demons, all of whom have reached the Peak Sunmoon.
" Human Race, how laughable! Their internal strife has lasted for thousands of years, and it has never stopped."
"However, the holy sons of our four races were all killed by the Human Race. The Human Race's powerful warriors ventured deep into the Blood Demon Mountain Range to kill the holy sons of our great races. This is a great disgrace. This is an opportunity for revenge, and the Human Race has delivered it to us themselves." The Invincible of the Holy Python Race said in a cold voice.
The murder of the saintess was an immense humiliation in her eyes. How could she, who was always proud, tolerate it? Now that someone had offered her an opportunity, she was even less likely to refuse.
