164. Chapter 164: The End of Kaguya Otsutsuki! The Divine Tree in the Soul Palace! 【8k for monthly votes】

"Lingsha, what does 'evil' mean?"

The silly Yun Tianhe stood silently beside Han Lingsha and shouted at the top of his lungs.

"Can you not shut your mouth first!"

Han Lingsha was so angry she could die. Saying he was ignorant of the world was already a compliment; to put it bluntly, he was a fool.

"Oh... but Lingsha, are we going to fight?"

Yun Tianhe felt a hint of tension, just like when he was hunting a small wild boar on the mountain and was suddenly targeted by a big wild boar.

"So annoying, so annoying!"

Han Lingsha covered her ears and squatted down, not wanting to hear Yun Tianhe's voice anymore.

The two of them making such a scene actually eased the atmosphere a bit. Murong Ziying stepped forward and cupped his hands, "Sect Leader Chu, Shushan is a famous sect and holds the reins of the righteous path. As the Sect Leader, your every word and action represents Shushan. I hope you will not speak recklessly."

"Although my Qionghua Sect disciples do not enter the world as frequently as Shushan disciples, we also eliminate demons everywhere. As for monsters, there is no distinction between good and bad; we just need to eliminate evil completely. On the contrary, what Sect Leader Chu said does not sound like the righteous path."

Murong Ziying's unyielding demeanor made even the Supreme Elders like Qingwei nod secretly.

"Eliminate evil completely?" Chu Yang smiled playfully, "In your eyes, those who are not of my race are evil?"

Murong Ziying frowned, "Monsters themselves are evil. Could it be that they still have good thoughts?"

Chu Yang asked again, "Have those young monsters ever harmed anyone? Are they also evil?"

Murong Ziying said lightly, "Even if they are young and ignorant, they will still harm people when they grow up. It is easy to change rivers and mountains, but hard to change one's nature."

The Qionghua Sect disciples echoed Murong Ziying's remarks. Such extreme thoughts made even the disciples of other cultivation sects feel uncomfortable.

Under normal circumstances, as long as they were not monsters that harmed people, they would turn a blind eye, including Shushan.

Even Xu Changqing, who was the most rigid in his actions, knew how to be flexible.

But in the eyes of Murong Ziying and most Qionghua Sect disciples, monsters were born to be killed. This was also why the Qionghua Sect attacked the Illusory Meditation Realm nineteen years ago, and only a few people felt that the war was wrong at the time.

After listening to Murong Ziying's remarks, Chu Yang sighed, "It is fitting that your Qionghua Sect should suffer this disaster. When the great disaster comes in the future, you must not forget these words today."

Murong Ziying said coldly, "Sect Leader Chu need not worry about the affairs of the Qionghua Sect. Since you are unwilling to lend us the Water Spirit Bead, you should let us leave, right?"

Chu Yang did not answer him, but stared at Su Yao and said in a warning tone, "The matter of the entire sect ascending will ultimately be a basket of water. Cultivating immortality is about cultivating oneself. You use this opportunistic way to try to become an immortal, and in the end, it will only provoke the wrath of the gods."

"Take care of yourself!"

Most of the disciples, including Murong Ziying, did not understand what Chu Yang meant and were all confused. As the Sect Leader, Su Yao's face changed drastically, and she shouted in a panic, "How did you know?"

Chu Yang smiled and said meaningfully, "I like to make friends. I have many friends within the six realms and occasionally hear some interesting things from them."

"Don't think that if you let the entire Qionghua Sect fly to the Kunlun Heavenly Light, the Nine Heavens Mysterious Maiden will happily welcome all of you to become immortals."

Hearing the name of the Nine Heavens Mysterious Maiden, everyone in the Qionghua Sect was shocked. You must know that the Dao tradition of the Qionghua Sect was passed down by the Nine Heavens Mysterious Maiden. It was no exaggeration to say she was the true founder of the Qionghua Sect.

Hearing this from someone else, Su Yao would only think he was farting, but Chu Yang was different. Someone who could make friends with the Demon Sovereign, knowing the first goddess under the Heavenly Emperor, didn't seem outrageous.

Su Yao asked excitedly, "Has the Mysterious Maiden descended any divine instructions?"

Chu Yang said no more, and with an indifferent expression, he asked Xu Changqing to "invite" the Qionghua Sect people out. Su Yao was unwilling, but could only leave with her disciples in a dejected manner.

After the Qionghua Sect left, Qingwei and the Sword Saint walked to Chu Yang's side and asked him about the ins and outs of the matter.

Chu Yang told everyone about what happened nineteen years ago.

Binding the Demon Realm and ascending the entire sect, the ambition of the Qionghua Sect could be described as shocking, making the backs of several sect leaders break out in cold sweat.

Shang Fengzi sighed, "Cultivating immortality to this point is truly falling into the demonic path. Acting like this, how can one become an immortal?"

Qingwei shook his head, "It's a pity that such a simple principle, the authorities are confused, and the bystanders are clear. Just now, A-Yang spoke so heavily, but we didn't see Sect Leader Su Yao wake up, which shows that the Qionghua Sect intends to go its own way."

The Sword Saint said coldly, "Since they have done it, whether it is a blessing or a curse, the Qionghua Sect will bear it themselves."

Master Puhong of Tianyin Temple showed compassion and whispered, "I think those young disciples may not know what their sect leader intends to do. If this disaster falls on their heads, it is inevitable that some are innocent..."

Dao Xuan Zhenren nodded, "This poor Daoist thinks so too."

"When the sky falls, the Qionghua Sect will hold it up. Let's care about the ferry!" Yun Yilan didn't care about the life or death of the Qionghua Sect in the first place, directly interrupting the topic and pulling everyone's attention back to business.

After the ferry project was proposed, several sect leaders discussed it and planned to wait until the ferry ports were all ready before holding a competition between the sects. In this way, it would be much more convenient.

Coming to Shushan to observe the ceremony, the three sects did not bring many core disciples. Since they were going to hold it, they should be well prepared. So the three sects stayed in Shushan for another three days, and Dao Xuan and the others left after discussing all the procedures.

The last to leave was Lin Tiannan. Because Lin Yueru was going to stay in Shushan for a long time, he let Lin Yueru go home with him to sweep the grave for her mother.

Shang Fengzi and the disciples of the Penglai Sword-Flying Hall decided to stay in Shushan for the time being, and the disciples of the two sects exchanged and learned from each other to prepare for the upcoming competition.

On the Shushan side, with Chu Yang succeeding as the Sect Leader, Xu Changqing, as the senior disciple, and Chang Yin, who ranked at the forefront among the disciples, had been promoted to elders, so they could not participate in the competition.

Therefore, this heavy responsibility could only fall on Li Xiaoyao and the others.

However, with Li Xiaoyao's talent, it was estimated that it would be difficult to find an opponent who could rival him in other sects, including the protagonist of *Zhu Xian*, Zhang Xiaofan.

The two were not even on the same level.

Before formal cultivation, Li Xiaoyao also had to leave Shushan for a period of time to pick up his aunt in Yuhang Town and his grandmother who lived in seclusion to Nanzhao Kingdom.

The grand ceremony of the merger of the two sects ended, and Shushan returned to its usual tranquility. The Seven Palaces were under construction, and the disciples were cultivating or going down the mountain.

Chu Yang, who should have been in charge of the sect's affairs, suddenly announced his seclusion, letting Xu Changqing manage the Shushan Sect on his behalf.

……………

Inside the Soul Palace.

Immortal Chu Yang was synchronizing recent memories with other Chu Yangs. After understanding his ferry plan, everyone began to bury their heads in designing the ferry style.

Copying the Pluto was definitely not possible. After all, that was a warship, mainly for combat, while the ferry was for transporting people. Although there was a possibility of encountering combat, defense capabilities should be considered more.

After discussing for a long time, everyone decided to use arrays and barriers to enhance the defense of the ferry. With the latest energy engine supplying energy, there was no need to worry about the failure of the arrays and barriers, and there was a certain guarantee in strength.

Just as everyone was chatting enthusiastically, the Marvel Chu Yang, who hadn't been seen for a long time, suddenly appeared and showed everyone the latest mecha embedded with infinite energy.

Compared with the previous mecha, this new mecha was closer to the Hulkbuster armor in design, and its size was very huge. According to Marvel Chu Yang, the main role of this mecha was to be able to move short distances in the universe.

Roughly the distance between the Earth and the Moon.

To put it bluntly, it was a small interstellar spaceship, but it was for one person to ride. Chu Yang called it the Wanderer Mecha.

The reason why such a mecha was designed was that Marvel Chu Yang was preparing for the future. Hydra and S. H. I. E. L. D. were now under his control, and there was no major threat to the Earth.

As long as certain people and organizations didn't seek death, the Earth would be very stable before Thanos arrived.

After the Wanderer Mecha came out, Naruto Chu Yang's emotions became excited, saying that he really needed the Wanderer Mecha.

The cultivation of the Ten-Tails was nearing its end, but it could not be awakened directly because he needed to find a suitable place to plant the Divine Tree.

It was definitely not possible to plant it directly on Earth. The Divine Tree would absorb the life force of the entire planet in an instant, so Naruto Chu Yang planned to plant the fruit of the Divine Tree on the Moon.

But there had been no suitable way to go to the Moon. Now the appearance of the Wanderer Mecha solved this problem.

There, Naruto Chu Yang could unscrupulously lift the seal of Kaguya Otsutsuki and even let the other party become a sacrifice for the Divine Tree.

After hearing the plan, Marvel Chu Yang handed the Wanderer to Naruto Chu Yang and gave him some details about its use.

After Naruto Chu Yang got the Wanderer Mecha, he returned to the Naruto world.

Hidden Leaf Village.

Chu Yang's figure appeared in the Forest of Death. He temporarily resigned from his job at the school in the name of cultivation. Senju Tobirama, who had high hopes for him, did not say anything about this.

Chu Yang, who had plenty of time, began to soak in the research room here all day. While cultivating Ten-Tails chakra, he was also trying to further refine the Otsutsuki bloodline.

But the concentration of the bloodline seemed to have some kind of shackles. After reaching a certain level, it would no longer improve, which made Chu Yang realize that to obtain the perfect Otsutsuki bloodline, he must start with the Otsutsuki clan.

Kaguya Otsutsuki or Isshiki Otsutsuki who descended to Earth with her.

Isshiki Otsutsuki's whereabouts were unknown. For now, he could only lift the seal, let Kaguya Otsutsuki reappear in the world, collect her bloodline, and then let her become a sacrifice for the Ten-Tails.

Chu Yang took the Ten-Tails chakra from the laboratory, and then his figure disappeared instantly, arriving at a remote place, and didn't take out the Wanderer Mecha until dark.

Three hours later, Chu Yang's feet landed on the Moon. He summoned the Gedo Mazo, the shell of the Ten-Tails, with the Summoning Jutsu, and then poured the Ten-Tails chakra into it.

The Gedo Mazo, which had obtained the chakra, twisted its body. Before it went berserk, Chu Yang sealed it, making it unable to move.

Afterward, Chu Yang tried to lift Kaguya Otsutsuki's seal with the power of the Six Paths.

Kaguya Otsutsuki was sealed by her two sons with Chibaku Tensei. Her body was on the Moon under his feet. Chu Yang chose to lift the seal here, which would get twice the result with half the effort.

A moment later, the entire Moon began to tremble violently.

A rumbling sound came from the location where Chu Yang was.

The next second, the entire land cracked rapidly.

In the blink of an eye, it developed into a huge abyss comparable to a great rift valley.

Beneath the abyss, a powerful chakra was surging, hitting Chu Yang like waves.

There were still descendants of Hamura Otsutsuki on the Moon, but Chu Yang had no time to deal with them at the moment.

Kaguya slowly rose from the bottom of the abyss, staring at Chu Yang with burning eyes.

She felt the concentration of the Otsutsuki bloodline on the other party, which was even more terrifying than her own.

Kaguya subconsciously regarded Chu Yang as her clansman and couldn't help but feel a little panicked. When she planted the Divine Tree back then, she should have let herself be swallowed by the Ten-Tails, but she played a trick and ambushed Isshiki Otsutsuki who was traveling with her.

For the Ten-Tails to grow into a Divine Tree, it must first swallow a living Otsutsuki clansman, and then it would absorb the life force of the entire planet to bear fruit.

Seeing the target appear, Chu Yang entered the state of the Original Body of Martial Essence and killed the other party.

Kaguya didn't dare to be careless and used a killing move as soon as she made a move.

"All-Killing Ash Bones!"

All-Killing Ash Bones was like an upgraded version of Kimimaro's Kekkei Genkai, which could also use one's own bones, change its structure, and make it a weapon.

Anyone pierced by the bone would gradually collapse like an Edo Tensei summon.

In terms of lethality, this was already one of the top three ninjutsu in Kaguya's hands, and she was very confident in the lethality of All-Killing Ash Bones.

But the next second.

Kaguya saw a scene she couldn't understand—

Chu Yang didn't dodge or evade, but grabbed the All-Killing Ash Bones with his hand and crushed it completely.

Kaguya's pupils shrank violently.

Actually, caught the All-Killing Ash Bones with his bare hands?

For a time, Kaguya's brain entered a state of crash.

Chu Yang continued to fly toward Kaguya.

"Eighty Gods Vacuum Attack!"

An extraordinary taijutsu that only Kaguya could launch. She concentrated chakra on her palms, and the sky full of fist shadows hit out with her palms!

Chu Yang waved his fists and bombarded Kaguya. He was best at taijutsu, and no one could win against him, not to mention that Kaguya had just woken up from the seal.

Under the bombardment of both sides, the entire Moon was trembling.

But no matter how strong Kaguya was, she could not be Chu Yang's opponent after all.

After only a few seconds, Kaguya was already covered in blood. She hurriedly took a few deep breaths and reorganized her posture.

However, Chu Yang didn't give her this chance at all, and forcibly beat Kaguya unconscious with his fists. First, he took enough blood to ensure that he could meet the experimental needs, and then Chu Yang brought her to the Ten-Tails and threw her to the Ten-Tails.

The Ten-Tails didn't have high intelligence. Seeing something flying over, it instinctively urged it to swallow it whole.

It struggled for a while, its body twisted constantly, and finally became a towering ancient tree.

Kaguya, who had swallowed the fruit of the Divine Tree, could replace a large amount of life force. After feeding her to the Ten-Tails, the fruit of the Divine Tree grew very fast.

Not long after, Chu Yang had an extra fruit in his hand.

The Divine Tree that bore the fruit withered rapidly and finally turned into dust. However, as long as Chu Yang was willing, he could still create another Divine Tree.

The best fertilizer was the Otsutsuki clan, which was much more cost-effective than absorbing the entire planet. Anyway, those guys would come here sooner or later. Chu Yang was waiting for them; bury one when one comes.

Because of the rift caused by the breaking of the seal, some panicked heads stretched out one after another. They were all descendants of Hamura, left on the Moon to guard the seal. They witnessed the whole battle just now, and the absolute suppression shown by Chu Yang also made them feel fear. As a clan guarding the seal, they knew the terror of Kaguya Otsutsuki better than anyone.

However, such a legendary figure was like a dog or a chicken in front of Chu Yang, without the slightest power to fight back.

Chu Yang looked down at them, his indifferent expression like a demon god, scaring this group of people into shivering.

How to deal with Hamura's descendants?

The Moon had been regarded by Chu Yang as a backyard for planting the Divine Tree, and they were a bit of an eyesore here.

Before Chu Yang could make a move, a very old descendant of Hamura suddenly knelt on the ground, and other clansmen followed suit, worshipping Chu Yang as a god.

"Knows how to read the situation..."

"But you thought wrong. I have no intention of hurting you, just want you to change to a place to live."

Before coming, Chu Yang had already left a Flying Thunder God coordinate on the ground, which could easily build a passage to return, but the coordinate point was not in the Hidden Leaf Village, but in a more remote place.

"My Lord, this is our homeland where we have lived for a lifetime. I hope you can be lenient and let us stay here to live."

People kept begging Chu Yang to let them stay here.

Chu Yang frowned, "The Moon is short of materials and life is thin. Isn't it better to return to the original planet to live?"

Someone in the crowd replied, "We have lived here for too long, and both our bodies and minds are more adapted to this place."

"We can become your help if we stay here. If you have any needs, just order us."

On second thought, Chu Yang did have places where he needed Hamura's descendants to help. The Forest of Death was still too small, and it was no longer enough as an experimental base. He couldn't dig out the bottom of the entire forest.

The bloodline factor experiment could not be made public. In the eyes of others, this thing was not much better than Orochimaru's experiments.

Considering various situations, it was actually necessary to transfer the experimental base to the Moon, and many chores really needed helpers.

Chu Yang built the Flying Thunder God passage and teleported back to the Hidden Leaf Village. Taking advantage of the quiet night, he began to move with Shadow Clones, which lasted until the sky was just bright.

After doing all this, Chu Yang had time to swallow the fruit of the Divine Tree in one gulp, and the huge energy burst in his body instantly.

The fruit of the Divine Tree not only possessed massive chakra but also all the genetic information of being "nutrient."

People of the Otsutsuki clan cultivate the Divine Tree and eat the fruit of the Divine Tree to let themselves gain the power of evolution.

The strongest person in the Otsutsuki clan—Shibai Otsutsuki, evolved by constantly swallowing fruits and finally became an existence like a god, actively abandoning the flesh, transcending the concept of life and death, and entering another dimension.

Interpreted from the perspective of immortality, it is almost like ascending to become an immortal.

Compared with the inefficient way of slowly cultivating planet by planet, Chu Yang preferred to take one step at a time and directly use the Otsutsuki clan as fertilizer.

The huge chakra was gradually absorbed by Chu Yang, and the power of all ninjutsu systems, including the Six Paths Sage Mode, was epicly enhanced.

Soul Palace.

Another new throne lit up.

Along with it appeared a strange tree, like the Divine Tree in the Naruto world, rooted in the center of the palace.

This change startled everyone. By comparison, the throne being lit up seemed a bit insignificant.

"Why is there an extra big tree?"

"This version update is really strange."

"The shape is a bit familiar..."

"Speaking of which, which world's BOSS was harmed again?"

As soon as the words fell, Naruto Chu Yang appeared in the Soul Palace, bringing the news that he had eliminated Kaguya.

Everyone gathered around the big tree and looked at it, curious about the role of this tree. So far, nothing that appeared in the Soul Palace was useless.

Naruto Chu Yang tried to inject chakra into the Divine Tree to see what reaction it would have, but as a result, there seemed to be a wall inside the Divine Tree, blocking the entry of chakra, as if rejecting this power.

Afterward, everyone tried with other powers, and without exception, they could not produce a reaction with the Divine Tree.

"There should be other trigger conditions. Don't try randomly, so as not to break this tree."

Magic Chu Yang stopped everyone's attempts.

Except for a few who stayed in the Soul Palace, others returned to their worlds.

……………

Immortal World.

Mingzhou City.

This is not far from Yuhang Town. Because of the waterways in all directions, the commerce of Mingzhou City is extremely prosperous, and as the dominant force in this city, the Xiahou family almost controls the most profitable industries in the city.

Even the government sometimes has to look at the Xiahou family's face.

Fortunately, as one of the leaders of the righteous path, the Xiahou family has a humble and polite family style and never uses power to oppress people. Instead, they often do good deeds. Whether it is a famine year or a sudden disaster, they always appear to help solve problems for the first time, and their reputation among the common people is quite good.

Almost as soon as they stepped into the city, many common people spontaneously came forward to greet Xiahou Zhang, who was at the head of the team, and the concern in their words was not half false.

"Uncle Xiahou is as loved by the people as ever." Jiang Cheng in the crowd couldn't help but sigh.

"Isn't Uncle Ouyang the same? If we talk about the backbone of a hero, Uncle Ouyang should be the first." Xiahou Jinxuan replied politely.

"Alright, you two, is it interesting to praise each other like this? I say you are not nervous at all. We are going to see that person in a while. What if we can't talk it out?"

I don't know why, the closer to Mingzhou City, the more uneasy Xia felt, and her mood was much worse.

Since knowing the truth, Mo Yi's figure has always been lingering in Xia's heart.

That man gave her a second life by chance, but his intentions were extremely sinister.

She didn't even know if she should thank him...

Seemingly sensing Xia's abnormality, Xiahou Jinxuan and Jiang Cheng did not blame her for her bad attitude, and Mu Changlan hugged Xia's shoulder and comforted her softly.

Only Xie Cangxing laughed loudly and said carelessly, "Girl, don't be so nervous. If we can't do it, my Sect Leader senior brother is not a vegetarian. As the saying goes, if you want to beat a dog, you have to look at the owner..."

Xiahou Jinxuan immediately stopped him from continuing, "Brother Xie, it should be 'if you don't look at the monk's face, look at the Buddha's face'."

Xia put her hands on her hips, "Who is your Sect Leader senior brother? What kind of relationship are you climbing? Just call him Sect Leader honestly!"

Jiang Cheng couldn't help but shake his head, "Brother Xie, it is very inappropriate to describe Sect Leader Chu as a vegetarian. You must be careful when you return to Shushan..."

Mu Changlan said coldly, "Really uncultured."

Xie Cangxing was anxious, "Hey hey hey, why are you all coming at me? I'm so wronged..."

Teasing Xie Cangxing seemed to have become a tacit fun activity for everyone, but to be honest, it was quite stress-relieving. At least Xia was not as nervous as before, and the effect was significant.

The noisy sound reached Xiahou Zhang's ears in front. He looked back at this group of young people, shook his head, and sighed, "Noisy and without a look, what a system."

The accompanying butler said happily, "Master, young people, it is completely understandable. When we were at their age, weren't we the same? The young master's behavior is too mature, and he has an old spirit at a young age, which is not a good thing."

Xiahou Zhang said angrily, "You and my second brother have spoiled him since childhood, making him not learn martial arts, but insist on learning some magic. He has no proper shape when he grows up, and I don't know what to do in the future, sigh..."

The accompanying butler apologized repeatedly, but his eyes were full of smiles. He had served the Xiahou family for many years and had long been an existence like a relative in the eyes of Xiahou Zhang and others, so he could talk to the family head like this.

The Xiahou Mansion is at the highest point in the entire Mingzhou City, and there is a long staircase to go back. When the group walked up the stairs, Xiahou Jinxuan, who was the weakest, kept complaining.

"Every time I go home, I have to walk from here. I really want to move out of the house."

"Young master, don't be in bliss and not know it. Go ask the beggars on the street, if they can live in the Xiahou Mansion, do they mind climbing stairs."

"Hmm... Miss Xia is right."

"Hahaha, why is the young master scolded every day."

"I also want to know why?"

"What else could it be, you are a crow's mouth! As long as you say it, there is nothing good."

Xiahou Jinxuan, who was scolded again, chose to shut up.

Returning to the Xiahou Mansion, the servants brought the news that the Second Sect Master was bedridden, which scared Xiahou Zhang to visit him quickly.

Jiang Cheng and the others looked at each other. They knew Xiahou Tao's true identity. A puppet wouldn't have so many illnesses. He was really good at acting.

Xiahou Jinxuan's expression was complex. After standing on the spot for a long time, he suddenly said, "Everyone, wait for me for a while. I want to go in and see my second uncle."

Xia shouted anxiously, "Are you crazy?"

Xiahou Jinxuan had an unspeakable sadness in his eyes and said slowly, "In these ten years, I have been with him day and night. He taught me to read and write, taught me how to conduct myself, and taught me magic to protect myself. People are not grass and trees, who can be heartless? At this time, we haven't torn our faces yet, I can still call him second uncle. If everything is revealed, I will never go back to the past..."

Xia wanted to say more, but was stopped by Jiang Cheng. He shook his head at Xia, "Miss Xia, everyone understands his mood, let him go."

Mu Changlan also whispered, "Sister Xia, the person who is most sad now is the little young master."

Xie Cangxing took a sip of wine, "Girl, don't worry about the young master's safety, that person doesn't know anything yet."

Xia turned around and stopped talking. She was indeed very worried about Xiahou Jinxuan's safety, but she also understood the pain of losing a relative. For Xiahou Jinxuan, his second uncle would completely die when the truth was revealed.

After getting the agreement and understanding of everyone, Xiahou Jinxuan hurried into the backyard and found Xiahou Tao's room with ease.

At this time, the door was open. When Xiahou Jinxuan entered, he saw Xiahou Tao lying on the bed and his father guarding the bed.

Xiahou Tao, with a pale face, saw Xiahou Jinxuan and showed a gratified and loving expression, smiling slightly, "Jinxuan is back. You should have seen a lot of interesting things on this road, right? Tell second uncle."

"Okay, second uncle." A trace of sadness flashed in Xiahou Jinxuan's eyes. He walked to Xiahou Tao's bed and talked to him about the interesting things he saw at the grand ceremony.

Regarding what happened on Shushan, he didn't hide anything. When he heard that the Demon Sovereign Zhong Lou appeared to congratulate Chu Yang on succeeding as Sect Leader, Xiahou Tao's face became strange.

"The dignified Demon Realm Lord actually has the leisure to join the fun in the human world. Could it be that the Demon Realm is peaceful at this time and doesn't need any jurisdiction?"

The resentment in his tone was overflowing, but Xiahou Tao controlled his emotions and didn't let Xiahou Zhang, who was in front of him, see anything unusual, while Xiahou Jinxuan, who had been watching him, kept his head down, his whole body trembling slightly.

If he still had a bit of unrealistic fantasy before stepping into the room, Xiahou Tao's attitude at this moment completely shattered his last bit of luck.

They talked about Shushan for I don't know how long before Xiahou Tao showed signs of sleepiness. Xiahou Zhang, in order to let him recover as soon as possible, didn't dare to disturb his rest and took Jinxuan out of the room directly.

After the two left, Xiahou Tao swept away his previous sickly appearance, sat up from the bed suddenly, and his expression became fierce.

"The countries of the Demon Realm are fighting for water sources. As the Lord of the Demon Realm, you neither choose to mediate nor find a way to repair the water veins, but call it survival of the fittest."

"Zhong Lou, you really shouldn't be the Lord of the Demon Realm!"

While Xiahou Tao, or Mo Yi, was cursing Zhong Lou, Xiahou Zhang had already led everyone to the side chamber for a meal. They had been eating and sleeping in the open all the way, and they were starving. They started to eat and drink without saying a word, with a feeling of fighting for their lives.

Xiahou Jinxuan had no interest and no appetite, so he went back to his room to rest early. On the contrary, Xia, who was a little uncomfortable before, ate the most fiercely.

Her five senses returned to normal, and for the first time since she was born, she felt the deliciousness of delicacies. Even if she had spare money in her pocket before, she wouldn't buy good food because she couldn't taste it.

The little girl cried while eating, looking like a refugee entering the country, which made Xiahou Zhang's mouth twitch. He thought that if anyone's child married this girl, it wouldn't work if the family background was slightly thin.

Isn't this child already an apprentice in Shushan? Why is she still like someone who has never seen the world.

Is it a bit too much to cry while eating good food? Xiahou Zhang sighed that he didn't understand the world of young people, so he left the dining table early, leaving Jiang Cheng and the others to eat and drink at will.

Until the end, it was Xie Cangxing who forcibly dragged Xia away, otherwise she would really eat from tonight until tomorrow morning.

It was late at night, and the four first returned to their guest rooms. After everyone fell asleep, they quietly came out of their rooms and headed straight for Xiahou Jinxuan's room.

Everyone gathered and, led by Xiahou Jinxuan, found Xiahou Tao's room.

At this moment, a dim light emanated from the room, and the sound of people talking could be vaguely heard.

"Your Majesty, have you found the specific location of the Shen Nong Cauldron in the Divine Continent?"

"I have a little information, but there are others here also searching for the whereabouts of the Shen Nong Cauldron. Among them is a guy with yin-yang pupils who is very formidable; I suffered quite a setback at his hands."

"I beg Your Majesty to take care of your dragon body; the Yacha Nation cannot bear the blow of losing you."

"Haha, with the Great Elder here, it wouldn't matter even if I were to suddenly die in battle one day. I trust you will handle everything well."

"Your Majesty, please do not make such jokes..."

There were some hidden barbs in their exchange; even though the other party was his own maternal uncle, Long Ming still harbored wariness toward the ambitious Mo Yi.

Just as Mo Yi intended to continue speaking, his expression suddenly changed. The next second, the door was pushed open, and Xiahou Jinxuan walked in slowly.

"Should I call you Second Uncle, or should I call you Kumu, or perhaps... call you Mo Yi, the Great Elder of the Yacha Nation?" (End of chapter)
