Chapter 636: The Return of Anlan
"Have I shaken them off?"
The Ruthless Empress sensed the aura nearby, but did not discover the aura of the Divine Silkworm Princess.
She let out a slight sigh of relief; the main thing was that she was either fighting or on the way to a fight, and the Divine Silkworm Princess was a burden to her, plus the identity of the Divine Silkworm Princess was also a huge trouble.
Even though the current Divine Silkworm Princess was also a cultivator of the Immortal Platform Realm, once her identity was exposed, it would likely attract countless experts to scramble for her.
As for the Divine Silkworm bloodline, its preciousness was no less than a Great Emperor scripture.
The Ruthless Empress then walked toward the market of the Twenty-Ninth Pass of the Xingkong Gulu, preparing to purchase some supplies; after all, on the Xingkong Gulu, life-bearing planets were few and far between, and most were barren star systems where life was rare.
"Ding, Private Task triggered: Live broadcast the Bati Zuxing. Task complete, reward: 3,000 points."
"Ding, Private Task triggered: Kill the contemporary descendant of the Tyrant Body. Task complete, reward: 30,000 points."
"Ding, Private Task triggered: Kill a Great Accomplishment Tyrant Body. Task complete, reward: 100,000 points."
"This task?"
The Ruthless Empress's pupils shrank slightly, feeling a bit of shock.
If it were just defeating a descendant of the Tyrant Body of the same age, she would have absolute confidence.
But if it were a Great Accomplishment Tyrant Body, for now, it was almost impossible.
A Great Accomplishment Tyrant Body, like a Great Accomplishment Saint Body, possessed the strength to challenge a Great Emperor.
Even if the strength was inferior to a true peak Great Emperor level, it was still equivalent to an Ancient Supreme who had slashed themselves with a blade, just like those existences in the Life Forbidden Zone.
Against such an existence, even a Quasi-Emperor would only be beaten to death by a Great Accomplishment Tyrant Body.
Although she was conceited, she was not conceited enough to challenge a Great Accomplishment Tyrant Body with the strength of the Immortal Third Layer.
It was just that these 100,000 points were a not-insignificant temptation; if she could obtain 100,000 points at once, perhaps she could use this resource to greatly improve her strength and realm.
"Ding, the young Ruthless Empress has opened a Chat Group live broadcast."
The next second, the Ruthless Empress opened the Live Broadcast Room.
Ding, Ye Fan Zhen Bu Hei has joined the Live Broadcast Room.
Ding, Immortal King Anlan has joined the Live Broadcast Room!
Ding, Zui Ai He Shounai has joined the Live Broadcast Room!
Ding, the Number One Golden Core of Kyushu has joined the Live Broadcast Room!
Ding, the Spring and Autumn Sword Deity has joined the Live Broadcast Room.
…
In an instant, the group members joined the Ruthless Empress's chat live broadcast one after another.
Ye Fan Zhen Bu Hei: "Little Sister Ruthless, this is rare, you actually opened a live broadcast."
Leader of the Exploding Heavens Faction: "This little one gives a like to the big boss Ruthless."
Na Du Tong Backbone Feng Baobao: "Six six six!"
Strongest Hair Stylist of Chicken Island: "At this moment, a handsome, cool hair stylist passes by; still the same saying, group members get a 90% discount on haircuts."
Zui Ai He Shounai: "Wahaha!"
Young Ruthless Empress: "It's just to cope with the Chat Group's task, I'll close it immediately."
Ye Fan Zhen Bu Hei: "???"
Number One Golden Core of Kyushu: "As expected of the Ruthless Empress, she just doesn't play by the rules."
Demon Queen: "Awesome!"
Ye Fan Zhen Bu Hei: "So, what is the situation now?"
Young Ruthless Empress: "I am still on the Xingkong Gulu, but I have arrived at the Bati Zuxing; this is also the Twenty-Ninth Pass of the Xingkong Gulu. The Chat Group requires me to live broadcast the Bati Zuxing."
Ye Fan Zhen Bu Hei: "Damn, Bati Zuxing! Isn't this the nemesis of the Saint Body!"
Young Ruthless Empress: "I already said before that the next stop would be the Bati Zuxing, and there is also this task."
The Ruthless Empress mentioned the three tasks this time in passing; actually, it was mainly for Ye Fan to hear.
Pope of Spirit Hall: "Oh my, there are actually 100,000 points, that's so many!"
Little Fairy of Peach Blossom Island: "100,000 points, apart from Team Missions, individual points are actually this high."
Spring and Autumn Sword Deity: "Envious!"
Baiyue Jiaozhu: "Truly envious, sigh!"
Diviner: "Don't just look at the task difficulty; a Great Accomplishment Saint Body is equivalent to a Great Emperor. With the Ruthless Empress's current strength, it is simply ten deaths and no life."
Leader of the Exploding Heavens Faction: "Indeed, a Great Emperor is equivalent to a Human Dao Supreme existence. Let alone that the Ruthless Empress can't beat them now, even Shi Laoliu can't. Even if a Great Accomplishment Tyrant Body is slightly inferior, it won't be by much."
Number One Golden Core of Kyushu: "Little Sister Ruthless, do you need a fighter? This Sword Immortal will go with you to beat up this Great Accomplishment Tyrant Body."
Demon Queen: "Count me in, Queen! Ever since I practiced Star Transformation, I haven't found an opponent to have a good fight with."
Demon Lord Chonglou: "This Lord would like to see if this Great Accomplishment Tyrant Body is as strong as the rumors say."
Heilong Tian: "Hehe, as expected of you, Brother Demon Lord."
Young Ruthless Empress: "..., as long as you all are happy."
Ye Fan Zhen Bu Hei: "Little Sister Ruthless, do you want brother to help you guard the flanks?"
Leader of the Exploding Heavens Faction: "As expected of you, Ye Laoliu?"
Zui Ai He Shounai: "Sister Ruthless, how about I go there to cheer you on? Cultivating in the Great Wilderness is so boring."
Number One Golden Core of Kyushu: "Not to mention, this Sword Immortal also wants to go?"
Demon Queen: "Group Owner, hurry up and open a portal, let's all go together."
Diviner: "..., do you all think cross-boundary portals are so easy to open?"
Journey to the West Scripture Seeker: "Group Owner, just say whether you're opening it or not."
Diviner: "Open!"
Ye Fan Zhen Bu Hei: "It really has to be my Xuan Ge!"
Exploding Heavens Faction Leader: "Indeed!"
Diviner: "This Group Owner is opening a portal immediately; those who want to go, pay attention."
Girl Ruthless: "..."
At the same time, Immortal Ancient Era, Ultimate Ancient Land.
Dark Ye Heavenly Emperor stared blankly at Girl Ruthless in the live stream, and a drop of black blood-tear could not help but slide out from the corner of his eye.
After many years, he finally saw Girl Ruthless.
This parting had lasted for more than a million years.
He still remembers that day when the entire Heavenly Court fell onto the Highland of the Heavens, followed by being hunted down by the dark creatures of the entire Heavens!
In that hunt that lasted ten thousand years, his wife died, his son died, his brothers died, and in the end, even Girl Ruthless fell to protect him.
Those scenes were like yesterday, lingering and unable to be dispelled; they were also the source of his descent into Darkness.
Now, seeing Girl Ruthless again, even if it was in a live stream, even if it was Girl Ruthless from another world, her familiar aura and appearance had not changed.
If he could save that past, Ye Heavenly Emperor would pay anything.
Unfortunately, what had already happened could not be changed; even though he had become a creature at the level of a Dark Dao Ancestor, he was powerless to turn the tide.
It is rumored that transcending the Dark Ancestor and achieving a realm above Sacrificial Dao would allow one to reverse time, restart everything, and let everything begin anew.
At that time, the method to surpass Sacrificial Dao was within the Dark Plateau, but several Ancestors had not fathomed it over countless eras.
Ye Heavenly Emperor was gifted with extraordinary talent and, in the dark, had Great Luck blessing him, allowing him to glimpse a bit of it.
Unfortunately, he was beaten into serious injury by Immortal Emperors (An Lao Liu, Shi Laoliu) who came from the future, falling into a space-time rift and becoming the source of the eternal dark calamity.
"Sad and lamentable."
I do not know when, but Anlan's true spirit appeared once again, his gaze deep and dim.
Because Ye Fan had Devoured him, the emotions of the two were resonating at this moment.
"You had better worry about yourself first," Ye Fan said coldly.
"Now there is a chance to make up for regrets, why turn a blind eye, Ye Laoliu?" Anlan said calmly.
"Call me Ye Heavenly Emperor!"
Ye Fan glared, his eyes containing supreme heavenly might, as if the sky were collapsing and the earth splitting, the sun and moon overturning.
"Fine, Ye Laoliu." Anlan spread his hands.
"..." Ye Fan.
"Now the Group Owner has opened the portal, you can also go see Girl Ruthless, using my body," Anlan said.
Ye Fan's body stiffened, falling into silence, then said: "Do you think this Emperor doesn't know what you are thinking? If I go, wouldn't that give you a chance to turn the tables?"
"I swear, okay? If I lied to you, Ye Laoliu, may I never be able to turn my life around," Anlan held up four fingers.
Seeing this, Ye Fan said: "Why are you doing this? You should know that even if you do this, I will not let you off."
The oath of a Quasi-Immortal Emperor has immense binding power, billions of times that of an ordinary person.
Once the oath is broken, there is a ninety-nine percent chance of being backlashed, and the oath finally coming true.
Hearing this, Anlan sighed suddenly: "Although you possessed my body, I was angry at first. But after reading your memories, your past, I slowly let go. If it were me, I might have been even more ruthless than you.
Besides, you are Ye Laoliu; although we are not from the same space-time, we can be considered friends.
This can be considered my final help to a friend before I leave completely."
Ye Fan mocked: "You are just a dark creature, when did you become such a saint? Do you think this Emperor will be moved and spare you?"
"Although I am a dark creature, I had no choice at that time. After joining the Chat Group, I saw many people, was beaten up, and also reflected on my mistakes, gradually finding my conscience again.
In a sense, Ye Laoliu, you and I are the same kind of people.
I believe that while you are in Darkness, your heart is in the Light," Anlan said.
"Heh," Ye Fan sneered.
Bati Zuxing.
Beside Girl Ruthless, several figures suddenly appeared out of thin air.
There were Ye Laoliu, Shi Laoliu, Feng Laoliu, Wang Laoliu, Mo Laoliu, and Xu Laoliu.
As well as Demon Lord Chonglou, Ye Wen, and Anlan, An Lao Liu.
"Damn, why don't I see Xuan Ge?" Ye Fan looked around, not finding Xuanzang.
"It seems Xuan Ge didn't come," Xu Que said.
"Master Ye, why are you here?" Wang Wu chuckled.
"Ye just came to take a look; if there is anything I can help with, Ye will not shirk," Ye Wen smiled warmly.
Demon Lord Chonglou wore a cold face, his Haki leaking out.
Under this starry sky, he felt unprecedentedly relaxed.
It was as if a certain shackle on his body had disappeared in an instant, the constraints in the dark had vanished, and his whole body felt comfortable.
Moreover, in this space-time, he felt as if he were omnipotent.
"Hey, An Lao Liu. Why is your style so familiar?"
Xu Que walked up to Anlan, and "Anlan" tightened his expression.
"What is familiar?" Ye Fan used Teleportation to arrive, standing right next to Anlan.
The expressions of the crowd changed instantly, as if they had seen something strange.
It turned out that at this moment, except for his face being different from Ye Fan's, "Anlan's" clothing, hairstyle, and demeanor were extremely like Ye Fan's, and even the way he frowned was ninety percent similar.
"Holy shit, An Lao Liu. What the hell are you doing, pirating me? Or are you plotting against me?" Ye Fan backed away three steps in horror, feeling like he had seen something dirty.
"..., uh, Ye Laoliu, are you teaching me how to do things?" Dark Ye Fan said, imitating Anlan's tone.
"Damn it." Ye Fan shook his head speechlessly, inexplicably feeling a chill down his back.
The Ruthless One, however, had a tacit understanding and glanced at the Anlan disguised by the Heavenly Emperor; she actually felt a trace of familiarity and deep sorrow from him, though this aura was hidden very well and vanished in an instant.
"Strange."
The Ruthless One thought to herself; she had not failed to see An Lao Liu before, but previously, An Lao Liu did not have this aura.
The Heavenly Emperor also glanced at the Ruthless One, but it was only for an instant; he dared not meet her gaze, fearing he would reveal some flaw, as just being able to come over and take a look was enough.
However, he was also pondering that possessing An Lao Liu indeed had major drawbacks and was prone to exposure.
Now, there was another opportunity before him, which was to possess the Ye Fan beside him.
After all, possessing Anlan and refining the true spirit of a Quasi-Immortal Emperor would require some time.
If he possessed Ye Fan, a mere small cultivator of the Immortal Platform, what could he use to resist him?
Besides, there shouldn't be any problem with possessing oneself, right?
The true spirit Anlan seemed to sense the Heavenly Emperor's malice and twisted thoughts, and immediately said:
"Ye Laoliu, don't mess around. You won't even spare yourself; is that appropriate?"
"Honestly go to sleep."
Ye Fan directly suppressed Anlan's consciousness, too lazy to listen, and then fixed his gaze on Ye Laoliu.
The Ye Laoliu in front felt a chill down his back, cold air rising, as if a ghost were hanging on him.
"An Lao Liu, why do you keep staring at Ye Laoliu?" Shi Hao couldn't help but say.
"What else could it be? They've taken a fancy to each other," Feng Laoliu said.
"Bao'er Jie, don't talk nonsense. I'm not interested in men," Ye Fan said.
"..." Heavenly Emperor?
"Hahaha." Wang Wu held her stomach and laughed, that Renjian weapon releasing a monstrous evil not belonging to this world, causing the crowd of cultivators on the roadside to stare in dumbstruck amazement.
"Take it easy, take it easy," Morgana said.
Discovering that the cultivators on the road had lewd gazes, she immediately cursed: "Damn it, what are you looking at? Your grandpa, keep looking and I'll dig out your dog eyes!"
As she spoke, Morgana used the Demon Claw to press several cultivators to the ground and hammer them from a distance.
Seeing this scene, some cultivators shifted their gazes, not daring to be blatant.
"Really, forcing me, the Queen, to take action," Morgana said.
"Don't be angry, it's no big deal," Wang Wu told her to relax.
"Little Sister Ruthless, where are we going next?" Ye Fan asked.
"To hammer the contemporary descendant of the Tyrant Body!" the Ruthless One replied calmly.
That emotionless gaze seemed to express that she looked upon life and death with indifference, would fight anyone who didn't submit, and that she alone was supreme and peerless.
"Haha, that's great. It's a pity this Tyrant Body descendant is a humanoid creature." Shi Hao showed a look of regret.
"That's not necessarily true. This is the Xingkong Gulu after all; those who come here are not just the Human Race, there are also many Ancient Myriad Clans, and there are still many non-humanoid creatures," Xu Que said.
"Is that so?"
Shi Hao nodded, and turning his head, he saw a huge creature on the Arena in the distance.
It was a lion, specifically one with nine heads, golden all over, its fur as silky as satin, its sharp claws comparable to peerless divine weapons.
"Nine-headed Lion?" Shi Hao's eyes burned.
"It's not a purebred, but it is also a relatively powerful clan," the Ruthless One said.
"Doesn't matter." Shi Hao chuckled.
