Chapter 230: Luck

~9 min read 1,773 words

The Nether-Cold Realm is always gloomy, and one doesn't know when the light will come, nor where it comes from.

Dream Eater sat at the table, holding a teacup in her hand, with half a cup of water in the cup, and the water was glowing slightly.

It was raining outside, and the raindrops were pattering on the shed cloth, sounding oppressive in the heart. Today's rain was glowing, making the whole world around brighter, but Dream Eater could only sit under the shed of the palace, watching the rain outside.

Light is not a good thing in the Nether-Cold Realm; if things that didn't originally glow suddenly have light, they will become exceptionally dangerous. On this rainy day, Dream Eater couldn't walk out of the palace; what was in her cup wasn't tea, but glowing rainwater, which could only be watched, not drunk.

Many great demons liked to chase light not long after they were born, such as glowing trees, glowing grasslands, glowing ponds, and then they disappeared. Only great demons who were naturally cautious, timid, and good at hiding and disguising could survive.

Dream Eater had lived for a long time, but she hadn't seen glowing rain like today's many times. Every time there was light rain, more than half of the friends in her memory would disappear.

This rain fell exceptionally long, and Dream Eater vaguely felt uneasy; she stood up and carefully checked the cloth of the top shed, seeing no leaks, and felt slightly relieved.

She suddenly felt the earth under her feet seem to move, and after a while, it moved again. Dream Eater knew that those terrifying giant objects from the outer domain were walking again; they might still be hundreds of thousands of miles away, but they could still make her feel the earth shaking.

Dream Eater looked in the direction from which the vibration came, wanting to see what kind of giant object it was this time. She suddenly trembled, seeing a figure in the rain holding an umbrella, walking step by step.

The moment she saw this figure, Dream Eater stiffened, and even her thoughts stopped!

The figure's walking movement was slow and relaxed, but the speed was unimaginably fast. It was originally still at the end of the horizon, and after a few steps, it arrived in front of Dream Eater's palace.

It bent its body with difficulty, but still couldn't see Dream Eater under the shed. Dream Eater was similar to ordinary humans, like an insect in front of its ten-zhang-high huge body.

It held the umbrella on the ground, blocking the light rain, and then lifted the top shed of the palace. Its six orange-yellow eyes began to glow, illuminating Dream Eater below.

Dream Eater recovered from the nightmare-like stiffness, but at this moment, there were only six light wheels like small suns in her eyes, and then a grand voice echoed in her consciousness.

"Master Shu Li once caught a human, he entered your trap. Where is that person now?"

Dream Eater answered woodenly: "He cracked my paper bride trap, and then escaped back to the original realm. Since then, I have never seen him again."

It was thinking about something, and after a while, it asked: "Why could he break your trap?"

"My paper bride trap is only useful for sentient beings with emotions. But that person had no emotions at all; what I lured out were all messy things, and as a result, he seized the gap and escaped."

The huge figure was silent again, and subsequently, the six orange-yellow light wheels extinguished.

It suddenly stretched out two fingers, pinched the bride wearing the big red wedding dress standing beside Dream Eater, and then blew lightly, lifting her veil.

Under the veil was a blank face.

It seemed to feel bored, pinched lightly, crushed the dream puppet with a "ka" sound, threw it away casually, and then picked up the umbrella, rising with a "hong hong long long" sound. Its lower body was very fat, and six giant feet supported a body like a small mountain; wanting to stand up was also very cumbersome and complex.

Beside it, there were also a dozen corpses of different forms hanging, each of which was very huge, much larger than Dream Eater. Dream Eater suddenly saw two familiar bodies, subconsciously covering her mouth, and tears flowed out involuntarily.

It looked at Dream Eater and said: "I ask them questions, but some of them are lying, and some don't answer well, so they become like this. You are just crawling insects that come with this world; if you don't want to obey, then change to another batch."

The huge figure gradually went away, but Dream Eater's tears couldn't stop no matter what. Her two best friends were now hanging on that huge body, and then they would be served on the dining table and eaten by countless Shaman tribe juniors.

That figure was the nightmare of all great demons in the Nether-Cold Realm; it could appear in front of any great demon at any time, and then kill that great demon for various strange reasons, such as being in a good mood now, or being in a bad mood now.

Its hunting had no reason, no pattern, no reason; all adult great demons were objects of its hunting. It was the Heavenly Shaman Long Zhe; for the great demons of the Nether-Cold Realm, it was even more terrifying than the giant objects from the outer domain.

Glowing raindrops fell on her, painful to the heart. Dream Eater only then discovered that the shed cloth of her palace had been lifted and thrown casually to a very far place. She immediately drilled into the soil and hid in a stone room underground.

The stone room was empty, making one panic. She covered her chest, feeling that a piece was missing there. She vaguely remembered that she seemed to have hidden something in that dream puppet, but the dream puppet was crushed, and that thing could never be found again. Dream Eater tried hard to recall what she had put into the dream puppet; was it emotion, cultivation, or memory?

Dream Eater thought for a long time without result, and could only give up. Fortunately, this time she luckily escaped a disaster again, but her friends were not so lucky; all friends and enemies were hanging on Long Zhe's body.

And Dream Eater knew that the reason she could luckily escape every time was because of that Nether-Shaman called Master Shu Li.

In a huge and deep palace deep in the Shaman Domain, Sacred Heart and Lady Hui Xin were kneeling side by side in the center of the main hall, and a huge shadow was coiled on the altar above.

A low, thunderous voice sounded from the shadow: "Haven't you found the whereabouts of the Spirit Fetus yet?"

Sacred Heart replied: "I went to the east to see that human, he is clearly hiding something, but there is no aura of the Spirit Fetus. Hongye's probing attack on the Shaman Domain failed, Master Shu Li seems to want to control the scale of the war with the humans, so I have no way to further confirm."

The voice in the shadow became obviously anxious: "Don't worry about Master Shu Li! He lost the Spirit Fetus, and soon even the country will not be able to be protected, and he still wants to control the conflict with the humans? I said long ago that his weird habits would kill him, and now he is almost dead. You go tell Hongye, I want to know what that person is hiding, even if it means killing all the people in the Broken Domain, it doesn't matter. If he can't give me the answer, I will kill all his tribes!"

Sacred Heart said: "I will go handle it. However..."

"What else do you want to say?" The voice in the shadow became sharper.

Sacred Heart said: "My intuition tells me that the secret that person is hiding is likely unrelated to the Spirit Fetus."

"I don't care! Go check first!" The shadow screamed.

!.

Sacred Heart took Lady Hui Xin and exited the main hall, and after getting a little further away, Sacred Heart sighed: "The Lord is becoming more and more difficult to control his madness. Our time is running out, we must let Hongye speed up the action."

"But Master Shu Li won't agree."

Sacred Heart said: "If we don't get the answer, then the Lord will likely go to war with Master Shu Li. The Lord is not far from complete madness now."

Lady Hui Xin suddenly said: "Is there a possibility that we are all wrong, and the Spirit Fetus and that person are actually unrelated?"

"But only that person in that area entered the Nether-Cold Realm and survived."

"Maybe there are others, but they didn't enter through the country, so we don't know." Lady Hui Xin said.

"If the humans entered the Nether-Cold Realm, we couldn't possibly not sense it."

Lady Hui Xin said: "If they entered the Nether-Cold Realm from the Grotto-Heaven world, they could hide from us; there have been such precedents before. Actually, there is another thing, I have always felt it is very strange, the humans originally gave up this region, but suddenly reopened the government and set up the county not long ago, wanting to re-occupy the Broken Domain. And the King of Western Jin has also been lurking there, it's just that he had good luck later and escaped the hunting of the Sacred Shaman."

Sacred Heart was thoughtful, saying: "Actually, I have always felt that that person's cultivation is too low, and it is absolutely impossible for him to be the opponent of the Spirit Fetus. Even if I want to kill the Spirit Fetus, it is very difficult, let alone him. But if the one setting the trap is Western Jin, then it makes sense."

"What should we do now?"

"First dig out the secret hidden by that human, and then let Hongye sweep Ningzhou."

"What if Hongye refuses?" Lady Hui Xin was somewhat worried.

"You go to his tribe first, and steal that descendant who hasn't hatched yet. If he refuses, then I can use this unborn bloodline descendant to cast a curse, cursing his descendants one by one. If he refuses for one day, I will curse one, until he bows his head."

Lady Hui Xin was somewhat unbearable: "But... Hongye is still quite good to me."

"Don't forget, the Lord is almost crazy."
