Chapter 31: The Cold Night of the Underworld

"I give you two days; if you can't do it, you don't need to stay alive!"

"Right, guard the Kulu Zong's flying ship for these few days. If any Kulu Zong people arrive, kill them immediately; no need to ask me."

Saying this, Lu Tianyu steered the flying boat toward Donghuang Star.

Watching Lu Tianyu's departing back, Bahuang Laozu was completely stunned.

This brat with zero cultivation actually said he could seal the Forbidden Abyss; he couldn't have heard that wrong, could he!

His entire head was buzzing.

Suddenly, he thought of something: "No!"

"How could he possibly manipulate the Profound Void Mirror to attack if he has no cultivation? How could he pilot the flying boat?"

Bahuang Laozu felt that Lu Tianyu was like a mass of fog, becoming increasingly impossible to see through.

Bahuang Laozu narrowed his eyes slightly: "Forget it, I'll just do as he said."

"If he can truly seal the Forbidden Abyss, what would it matter if I stop having any thoughts of resistance and assist him with all my might?"

Lu Tianyu knew nothing of this.

On the flying ship, he raised his hand toward the Phoenix Ring: "Hey, you heard everything I said just now, right."

As soon as the words fell, Qian Gu Nu Di's voice, like an oriole, rang out: "I heard."

"Sealing the Abyss for a year is fine, but you have to do one thing for me!"

Lu Tianyu asked: "Oh, what thing?"

Qian Gu Nu Di immediately replied: "Go to Diling City at the junction of the Zhuoliu Xingyu and the Dark Star Territory, find Gui Sheng Xie Yi, and when you arrive, I will tell you what to do for me."

Lu Tianyu agreed immediately: "Fine!"

"Are you sure Gui Sheng Xie Yi is in Diling City?"

Grandfather went to look for Gui Sheng Xie Yi; perhaps he might even be able to see Grandfather.

If he couldn't run into him, he could send a message to Grandfather to have him return; he was very worried about Grandfather's safety.

But he did not understand why Qian Gu Nu Di, being inside the Forbidden Abyss, knew for certain that Gui Sheng Xie Yi was in Diling City.

Gui Sheng Xie Yi's whereabouts were uncertain, and it was extremely difficult to find traces of him.

Even if one knew which city he was in, one couldn't find him; Gui Sheng Xie Yi was skilled in the Disguise Technique and usually used disguises to avoid those looking for him.

He generally would not take action to treat patients.

"I said I told him to go; you certainly won't believe it, but you just go. You only need to know that your wife here won't lie to her husband."

Qian Gu Nu Di giggled.

Lu Tianyu cleared his throat: "Hey, could you please change how you address me? Someone who doesn't know might think we really are a couple."

"I always feel it's weird."

Every time he was called 'husband', he always felt it was too mushy.

"Change how I address you? Of course I can."

Qian Gu Nu Di chuckled: "If you don't like 'husband', I'll call you 'my lord' instead."

"You really are something, a grown man who doesn't know how to take responsibility. We've already done Soul Dual Cultivation for one hundred thousand years, and you can't even call me 'wife' or 'my lady'?"

Lu Tianyu was instantly speechless: "Cough, cough, cough!"

"After I finish sealing the Forbidden Abyss, I will go find Gui Sheng Xie Yi."

Dark Star Territory, the main hall of the Kulu Zong, one of the Nether Three Sects.

An angry roar resounded throughout the entire hall: "Who killed my son!"

"Who dares!"

"Find them for me immediately!"

On the black altar in the main hall.

A cold, pale-skinned man with a face nine-tenths similar to Ming Tianqi smashed the chair beneath him with one palm.

This person was none other than the Sect Master of the Kulu Zong, one of the Nether Three Sects, Ming Lengye.

Ming Lengye was discussing with the clan elders how to invade the Bahuang Star Domain when an inner disciple came to report that Ming Tianqi's soul lamp had extinguished.

He was instantly furious!

Ming Tianqi was not the most talented in cultivation among his sons, but he was the wisest.

For the long-term considerations of the Kulu Zong, he chose Ming Tianqi to be the Saint Son.

But he never expected that Ming Tianqi would be killed.

Ming Lengye truly could not understand who had the audacity to lay a hand on his son; they must not want to live anymore.

The External Affairs Elder bowed and said: "Sect Master, the elder responsible for divination has already rushed to the destination; there will be results very soon."

"The Young Master went to the Manhuang Senlin of the Bahuang Star Domain this time. The people of the Bahuang Clan are timid as mice and certainly wouldn't dare to move against the Young Master; the murderer must be someone else."

"Manhuang Senlin?" Ming Lengye's body flashed with black light, "What did he go there for?"

The External Affairs Elder replied: "To kill a person named Lu Tianyu; he is the Saint Son of Donghuang."

"Four months ago, the Saint Son sent people to throw this person into the Forbidden Abyss, but never expected that this person would actually emerge from the Forbidden Abyss."

"The Saint Son went there to capture this person and interrogate him about what secrets he obtained from the Abyss."

"I never expected..."

Once these words were spoken, Ming Lengye immediately said in a deep voice: "It must be that old thing Changmei who killed my son!"

"Changmei is an old thing who protects his own like his life; my son attacked his precious grandson, so he must have found out the reason."

"This time my son went to kill his grandson again; it is highly likely he killed my son in a fit of rage."

He said hatefully: "That old thing Changmei is my mortal enemy."

"Changmei Laozu, I was defeated by your hand many years ago, but now you are old. My Tianji Kulu has been successfully refined; it is time to harvest your life!"

"Someone, notify the Third Elder to assemble the troops and prepare to depart; slaughter the entire Donghuang clan!"

A cold killing intent erupted from Ming Tianqi's body.

The Great Elder stepped forward: "Sect Master, this matter still requires careful deliberation."

"That old thing Changmei has a violent temper, but he is not a brainless person; let us wait for the divination results before making a decision."

But just at this moment, someone reported in a hurry: "Sect Master, it is a disaster, the soul lamp of Elder Zongming has extinguished!"

"What?" The Great Elder was greatly shocked, "Elder Zongming's stealth technique and divination technique are both top-tier; he performed a calculation before departing, and the journey should have been smooth..."

Speaking to this point, he suddenly became anxious: "The heavenly secrets and rules of the Bahuang Star Domain are chaotic, and divination techniques are mostly inaccurate, alas!"

"Hmph!" Ming Lengye let out a cold snort, "What need is there for any more divination!"

"Determine the location where the Saint Son went, and destroy all the surrounding star domains!"

"If my Kulu Zong does not show its might, no one knows the power of my Kulu Zong; even the tiny Bahuang dares to kill my son, they are bold and lawless!"

"This matter does not need to be discussed further!"

"Great Elder, you depart now, seal all exits of the Bahuang Star Domain, and forbid anyone from entering or leaving!"

"Whenever any member of the Huang Clan comes out, kill them immediately and refine them into Kulu Kuilei!"

"All Kulu Zong warriors, follow me to the Bahuang Star Domain!"

"I will notify the Ancestor of Kulu Zong and have him accompany me!"

"If you encounter Lu Tianyu, capture him alive; I want to slice him up for research to see what he obtained from the Abyss."

The Great Elder wanted to say something more, but he opened his mouth and did not speak, then cupped his fists and left.

Just at this moment, someone else came to report: "Sect Master, a person from the Nanhuang Clan of the Bahuang Star Domain, who calls herself Ying Gu, has arrived."

"She says she has an urgent matter to discuss with the Sect Master!"

"She says she knows the process of how the Young Sect Master was killed."

Ming Lengye waved his hand: "Quickly let her in!"

A moment later.

An old woman in purple robes with graying hair was brought in.

It was precisely Ying Gu of the Nanhuang Clan.
