Chapter 921: What exactly happened

Time passed day by day.

In the blink of an eye, more than a hundred years had passed.

Over these hundred-plus years, the situation in the heavens and myriad realms had become increasingly chaotic.

The activities of the Ominous army had become increasingly frequent.

Small groups of the Ominous army constantly crossed the Wugui Road to invade the Nine Heavens Ten Earths.

Although these small groups were jointly wiped out by the major forces.

But every invasion caused huge casualties and destruction.

Moreover, the strength of the Ominous army was becoming stronger and stronger.

The scale of the invasion was also becoming larger and larger.

Everyone had a premonition that a larger storm was about to arrive.

On this day.

The high-level officials of the Heaven Court gathered again in the Heavenly Emperor Hall to discuss important matters.

Everyone's face was filled with solemnity.

Undying War God spoke first, breaking the silence of the great hall:

"Why haven't those fellow Daoists who went to explore the Wugui Road with the Heavenly Emperor returned yet?"

"More than a hundred years have passed, could it be that they encountered something terrible and were trapped?"

More than a hundred years.

Ever since Ye Wuque led the small team to set off for the Wugui Road, no news had been sent back.

They were like they had evaporated from the human world, with no news at all.

This made everyone very worried.

Kun Ancestor sighed and said slowly:

"I hope they are fine."

"Currently, their soul lamps are all fine."

"It's just that they haven't returned, and we don't know what the situation is."

Dao Ancestor frowned and said:

"How about I go see what the situation is?"

"It's not a solution to keep going like this..."

"The current situation in the heavens and myriad realms is very bad."

"Many living beings are very pessimistic."

"There are even rumors that the true world-annihilating calamity is about to descend, and at that time, true Transcendents will descend upon the heavens and myriad realms!"

"Everything is about to be finished!"

Kun Ancestor pondered for a moment and said slowly:

"Alright. It is indeed necessary to go and see."

"Then, you and I will go together!"

Dao Ancestor nodded: "Good."

"No."

Undying War God hurriedly waved his hand and said:

"You need to guard the Heaven Court."

"I will go. It is enough for me to go alone."

Dao Ancestor and Kun Ancestor's expressions changed slightly:

"But..."

"There is no 'but'."

Undying War God interrupted them, his tone firm:

"You all know the situation in the heavens and myriad realms and inside the Heaven Court."

"Sufficient strength must be left here, otherwise it is easy for big trouble to appear."

"I don't care if the Lord has truly fallen or encountered other terrifying changes."

"I must go to the depths of the Wugui Road to investigate clearly."

"Once I investigate clearly, I will definitely return to give you an explanation."

Seeing Undying War God so firm, Kun Ancestor and Dao Ancestor could only nod helplessly.

"Alright. Take care of yourself."

"If you encounter danger, send a message back immediately."

"We will rush to support you at the first opportunity."

"Don't worry."

Undying War God nodded, a firm smile appearing on his face.

He had already made the worst preparations.

Even if he were to die, he would investigate the truth of Ye Wuque's fall clearly.

Just as Undying War God was about to set off.

Suddenly!

Outside the Heavenly Emperor Hall, a rush of footsteps came.

"Report——!!!"

A Heaven Court guard ran in, panicked, knelt on one knee, and reported loudly:

"Reporting to all the adults!"

"Outside... outside a group of people has returned!"

"It is the adults who went to explore the Wugui Road with the Heavenly Emperor who have returned!"

What?!

Hearing this news, everyone in the great hall stood up abruptly!

Their faces revealed incomparably excited and hopeful expressions!

"Really?!"

"They have returned?!"

"What about the Heavenly Emperor? Did the Heavenly Emperor return too?!"

Everyone asked excitedly.

"Quick! Take us to see!"

Ziyang Shen said hurriedly.

Everyone followed the guard and ran quickly toward the direction of the South Heaven Gate.

Outside the South Heaven Gate, there were indeed a few familiar figures standing there.

Undying War God, Kun Ancestor, Dao Ancestor, and Ziyang Shen all revealed hopeful expressions.

Hoping they could bring back some good news.

Preferably the news that Ye Wuque and Feng Caichen were not dead yet.

However, the next moment, Kun Ancestor and the others' expressions changed slightly.

Because he saw that, excluding Ye Wuque, the number of living beings who should have returned together should be eleven.

However, at this moment, only five living beings had returned.

They were Huang Lao, Yin-Yang Great Emperor, Ning Wushuang, Miao Miao Xianzi, and the Mysterious Being.

The others, Xiaosa Ge, Huang Xie, and Jian Fengzi, did not follow them back!

Could it be that...

They had also fallen?

Ziyang Shen's heart sank instantly.

He hurriedly walked forward and asked anxiously:

"What happened, where are the others?"

"Why didn't they return together?"

"What about Xiaosa Ge and the others?"

Huang Lao saw everyone, and a look of fatigue and grief appeared on his face.

He hurriedly said:

"You don't need to worry, they didn't have any accidents."

"They found great opportunities that fit themselves in the deepest part of the Wugui Road, the Wugui Space-Time Sea, and are currently still in seclusion there digesting the opportunities..."

"In a short period of time, they definitely won't be back."

"Those peerless opportunities are enough to let them be reborn once."

Hearing this, Kun Ancestor and the others finally breathed a sigh of relief.

Fortunately, Xiaosa Ge and the others were fine.

That was good.

Then, Ziyang Shen looked at Huang Lao with hopeful eyes, his voice carrying a trace of trembling, and asked in a low voice:

"Then, what about Brother Ye?"

"Is it true that he has already..."

He did not dare to say that word.

But everyone knew what he wanted to ask.

Everyone's gaze focused on Huang Lao, Yin-Yang Great Emperor, Ning Wushuang, Miao Miao Xianzi, and the Mysterious Being.

Waiting for their answer.

The air seemed to freeze at this moment.

The five of them looked at each other, their expressions all turning dim and painful.

They did not speak for a long time.

Seeing that they all had this expression, Ziyang Shen trembled all over.

A huge grief surged from the bottom of his heart like a tide.

He staggered back a step, almost falling to the ground.

Kun Ancestor, Dao Ancestor, and Undying War God also had red eyes.

Their fists were clenched tightly, their fingernails sinking deep into their palms.

Blood flowed slowly through their fingers.

The reaction of the five of them was enough to explain everything.

Ye Wuque had truly fallen!

There was no miracle!

Undying War God took a deep breath, forcibly suppressing the grief in his heart.

He looked at the Mysterious Being and asked after a long while:

"In the depths of the Wugui Road, what exactly happened?"

A silence followed. ===== CHAPTER 922 =====
