Chapter 1402: You Are Outsiders to Us! (2/2)

“I can’t believe these Netherspirits actually want to invade the Spirit World and the Mortal World. How laughable!” Nie Tian thought to himself as he slaughtered Netherspirits. “They don’t have a single grand monarch among them, yet they aspired to defeat Mo Heng and breach the portal with their army of evil spirits.”

He found this hard to believe.

AHH! WOO!

The fleeing Netherspirits let out sharp cries, which fell into the illusory Nether River like tangible musical notes.

After receiving those notes, the illusory Nether River suddenly started twisting, with countless strange shadows wriggling within it, as if to send out messages.

“Nie Tian, even though that Nether River is merely an illusion, it seems to contain wonders,” Pei Qiqi reminded him.

“You don’t have to stay here anymore.” You Qimiao’s ethereal voice echoed out. “Go to the Soul-devouring Lake. My Immortal grade divine tool will harvest all that it has to offer. Then, when it tells you to leave, come back here, and we’ll leave together.”

A suspicious look appeared in Pei Qiqi’s eyes as she said, “You seem to be afraid of something. What is it?”

“Do you really think that Netherspirits are a weak people?” You Qimiao said with a stern expression. “They’re a race that has seen leaders like Grand Monarch Heavenly Spirit in their history. That’s a mighty figure who transcended the limits of the tenth grade. Even after his demise, his sea of awareness morphed into the Nether River that runs through three worlds.

“Their current high chieftain, Grand Monarch Thousand Spirits, is a figure who’s every bit as strong as Grand Monarch Nether River of the Phantasms, if not stronger.

“If he’s to come here, I’ll definitely be the losing one.

“In fact, even if I join up with Mo Heng and Jiang Yuanchi, we might not be able to match him in battle!”

You Qimiao seemed very vigilant. By telling Pei Qiqi and Nie Tian this, he didn’t want them to take the Netherspirits as a weak people just because they had killed a bunch of their weaker members.

Pei Qiqi nodded. “Got it.”

“Now go!” You Qimiao said. “Something seems to be going on over at the Soul-devouring Lake. Help my divine tool if it asks for it. We might be enemies in the Mortal World, but I hope we can cast our differences aside and work together here in the Void World.”

“I can do that,” Nie Tian said.

The Space Boundaries Crystal spun once again.

In a flash, Nie Tian and Pei Qiqi arrived above the Soul-devouring Lake.

A devilishly beautiful figure was standing quietly by the lake, her purple hair cascading to her perky bottom like a waterfall. Curiosity filled her purple crystalline eyes as she cast a glance at Nie Tian and Pei Qiqi, and asked in what sounded like awkward Demon language, “Who are you? Where are you from?”

“A Devil!” An exclamation escaped Nie Tian and Pei Qiqi’s mouths as they saw the female being that had a ninety percent resemblance to a high-tier Demon.

“She’s an early tenth grade Devil grand monarch!” Nie Tian whispered to Pei Qiqi.

The bloodline origin of the Demons in the Spirit World lay with the Devils in the Void World.

This curvaceous female being with purple hair and pupils was clearly a Devil. Dressed in a semi-transparent silk dress, her every move and smile seemed to be exceedingly charming.

Plus, she was at the early tenth grade.

Nie Tian, who understood the Demons’ language, warned Pei Qiqi in the human language, “Such profound flesh aura and strong power fluctuations. She seems to be much stronger than Grand Monarch Blood Axe of the Demons, who I once fought in the Spirit World. This Devil grand monarch can’t be taken lightly.”

Pei Qiqi nodded and said with a grim expression, “If anything goes wrong, I’ll take you away from here immediately.”

“Where are the two of you from?” The female Devil asked, her pupils devilishly purple. “From the look of it, you don’t belong to any of the higher races in our world. And your flesh auras are very special, especially you...”

She ran her eyes up and down Pei Qiqi. “You seem to carry the Voidspirits’ aura, but it’s not the same.”

“Which part of your world do the Voidspirits live in?” Pei Qiqi asked in well-pronounced Demon language.

“Such a strange language you speak. It’s very similar to ours but, again, not the same.” The female Devil pondered for a brief moment before her eyes suddenly lit up. She chuckled and continued, “So you’re not from our world. Are you from the Spirit World or the Mortal World?”

“The Mortal World,” Pei Qiqi said.

The female Devil was taken aback. “Very curious. As far as I know, the humans from the Mortal World lack fleshly strength, and don’t carry particular bloodlines. But you two exude rich flesh auras, and your bodies seem to be well-tempered and exceptionally strong.

“Oh wait! You must be from that region between two worlds!

“Many hybrids of humans and races from the Spirit World live there!”

With these words, she paused and took a glance at the Soul-devouring Lake. “You came for what lies at the bottom of this lake, right?”

“What if we did?” Nie Tian asked.

“If you did, then I’ll have to kill you,” The female Devil said casually. “After all, you’re outsiders to us.”
