The Path Toward Heaven

Chapter 329 Waiting for the Underworld Emperor

Everyone in Chaoge City was evacuating, but the imperial city remained quiet.

There are natural reasons why people in the imperial city did not leave, both spiritual and logical.

Of course, it is also because the imperial city has a large formation jointly arranged by the seven major sects, which can resist even a blow from the sky.

Knowing this does not eliminate all fear. Another earthquake came, the beams and pillars of the palace creaked, the smoke and dust produced slightly, and the screams of countless court ladies resounded in the palace, until the eunuchs walking between the halls sternly shouted, it gradually subsided.

The guards stood on the imperial city, holding the divine crossbow in their hands, watching the movement around them vigilantly, completely ignoring what happened behind them.

The palace without sound is as quiet as a tomb, which is palpitating.

Concubine Hu Gui stood in front of the hall, watching the changes in the clouds in the sky, with a look of fear on her face.

She didn't know what happened in Chaoge City, but if the imperial formation was activated, something must have happened.

Not far away came Gu Qing's voice: "Your Highness, please continue."

Concubine Hu Gui turned around and saw her son squatting by the window, ready to punch, she couldn't help being surprised.

She walked to Gu Qing's side and said in a low voice, "Mr. Gu, today...do you want to hold off?"

"On the road of cultivation, the most critical link is to stick to the Taoist heart. Even if the imperial city collapses in front of you, you must not change your face and your heart will not waver."

Lu Qing's voice was very calm, like the spring water in Shenmo Peak.

Concubine Hu Gui admired her admiration, she thought that she was indeed an immortal master Qingshan, knowing that something important was going to happen in Chaoge City, she was still so calm.

How did she know that Gu Qing's expression was as usual, but he was extremely nervous. If it wasn't for the hands clasped behind his back, he might have trembled.

Chaoge City suddenly trembled, the imperial city activated a large formation, and the atmosphere in the sky was chaotic... He vaguely guessed that it must be related to the master he hadn't seen for a long time, how could he not be worried?

In order to conceal his mood, Gu Qing focused more on teaching Prince Jing Yao to practice.

Concubine Hu Gui watched from the sidelines, but her anxiety became more and more serious.

A eunuch reported in a low voice that she knew that people were being evacuated outside the palace, and she couldn't hold back anymore, and hurried out of the palace.

All the eunuchs and maids were required to stay in their respective halls and not to go out without authorization, and the palace seemed extraordinarily quiet.

It didn't take long before she came to the main hall of the palace, bowed down to the bright yellow figure, and said, "Your Majesty..."

"I know what you want to say, don't worry, it's nothing serious, if something really happens, I won't be able to leave even more."

The God Emperor walked past her and came to the front of the hall to look at the rising sun in the distance.

The morning light fell on his clear and beautiful face, and his pupils exuded extraordinary brilliance, resounding with majesty, just like the rising sun.

Looking at Shenhuang's back, the admiration in Hu Guifei's eyes seemed to overflow.

She didn't say anything more, she walked up to the God Emperor and stood quietly, very well-behaved.

The Emperor of God reached out and touched her head.

Concubine Hu Guihe laughed out loud, and rubbed her head against the palm of the Emperor, very cute.

Suddenly the ground shook again, and there was a creaking sound in the depths of the hall.

It's still like this with the protection of the formation, one can imagine how shocking the vibration outside the palace must be.

Concubine Hu Gui's complexion was slightly pale, and she subconsciously reached out to grab the sleeve of the Emperor.

The Emperor of God gave her a loving look, his mind moved slightly, and something rolled out of his sleeve and landed in Concubine Hu Gui's hand.

That kind of thing is very round, it looks like an egg, but the outer shell exudes a jade-like luster, it looks extremely beautiful and magical.

Concubine Hu Gui was surprised and said, "What is this?"

The Emperor said, "This is Suzaku's jade egg."

Concubine Hu Gui was very surprised.

Suzaku is a kind of divine bird, the same as Canglong, Qilin of Zhongzhou School and Yuan Gui of Qingshan School, it is the oldest and highest-level life.

The last Suzaku bird in Chaotian Continent died in the sky fire ten thousand years ago. Who would have thought that it would leave an egg behind.

Thinking that there might be a little Suzaku in the egg, Concubine Hu Gui was extremely nervous, her palms trembled slightly, and she kept saying: "What are you doing for me, take it back quickly."

In desperation, she didn't even call out to His Majesty, but got up like in the night.

The Emperor of God laughed heartily, and said, "You warm it up for me, and see when you can let it come out."

Concubine Hu Gui calmed down a little, and said angrily, "I'm a fox, how can I hug my nest?"

...

...

On the second floor of Demon Town Prison, the night is as dark as ink, making it difficult to see, but for some beings, this place is no different from daytime.

The old man transformed into the soul of Canglong was suspended in the sky, his clothes fluttering slightly.

He looked at Jing Jiu who was lying on the ground, with a cruel and proud look in his eyes, and said, "Finally caught you mosquito..."

Relying on the Nether Sword Immortal, Jing Jiu appears and disappears from time to time, his whereabouts are unpredictable, and every time he appears, he will use his iron sword to damage a part of the Demon Town Prison, that is, hurt Canglong once.

This is really similar to Mosquito's style.

In addition to cruelty and pride, there are two emotions of greed and resentment in the eyes of the old man.

Greed is because he thinks he can eat Jing Jiu immediately, and resentment is because...he is really suffering at this moment.

There are gaps cut by Jing Jiu with his iron sword everywhere in Zhenmo Prison, which is equivalent to wounds.

Although compared to Canglong's horrific body, these small wounds are not worth mentioning, the poison on the iron sword would not kill him even if it ate for thousands of years.

But those wounds were corroded by the pool water, which was very painful and extremely itchy.

Now he is like an elephant that has been cut through countless cracks by branches, and those ants are drilling into those cracks.

Of course, Jing Jiu's situation is also very bad, much worse than the old man's.

He was struck by countless lightning bolts, he bled unknowingly, his body was completely scorched black, with bright electric wires still remaining on him, his life was on the verge of dying.

The old man landed in front of Jing Jiu, looked at his miserable state, felt extremely happy, and shouted: "I am the dragon god, once I get angry..."

His voice suddenly stopped.

Such things as pleasure often come from the pain of the enemy.

The old man couldn't feel Jing Jiu's pain, so the word "quick" in his pleasure quickly disappeared, leaving only faint attacks of pain.

Jing Jiu looked really miserable, even worse than the failed Thunder Soul Wood, just like the firewood in the village that was wet by the rain and was burned in the stove for two days and one night.

But his eyes were still so calm.

Even though it was slightly dim due to the loss of vitality, it was still as calm as a lake.

His mood was still so indifferent.

He was clearly lying on the ground, but he seemed to be looking down at the old man from a height.

Even if you are begging for food, you are still a noble son.

As long as I can keep my eyes open, I won't see you.

That's probably how it feels.

Seeing Jing Jiu like this, the old man became inexplicably angry, and shouted sharply: "Please beg me! Beg me to give you a good time!"

Jing Jiu said, "Could it be that you haven't realized that what I'm looking for is not happiness, but time?"

If he wanted to be happy, he would not choose to use the Nether Immortal Sword to hunt and kill the Canglong and endure so much pain.

He will directly choose more risky and radical means in order to get out of trouble.

So he has been stalling for time, waiting for those things to happen, that person to appear.

The old man taunted and said: "Suppressing the Demon Prison shakes, and all the strong from the mainland will come to Chaoge City. Even if you wait until the helper appears, you will surely die."

Jing Jiu said, "If you knew who I was waiting for, you might change your mind."

Hearing these words, the old man's expression changed suddenly, and he suddenly turned to look at the darkest place in the night.

There was the lower level of the Demon Town Prison, which he himself could not perceive.

The Underworld Emperor is there.
