Chapter 227: Princess Zhong Zhou 1 (1/2)

Chapter 227: Princess Zhong Zhou (1)

Unbeknownst to everyone, a woman had been standing in the air. She had a peerless elegance that would be considered rare in all the ages. She stood there like a moon goddess. With an extremely ancient style of attire, it immediately let people know that she was not born in the contemporary times!

This woman — with her eyes shut while holding the ancient box — did not look at anyone. However, this did not diminish her beauty in the least.

“Earth Immortal…” Seeing this woman, shock was inevitable for all spectators. Even a few other Earth Immortals at this place changed their expressions. The last gate master of the Thousand Emperors Gate also lost his colors as he murmured to say: “It is her!”

Princess Zhong Zhou! A Treasure Lord that had dealt with Li Qiye before, an extremely mysterious woman! While looking at her, no one ever thought that an Earth Immortal would lend Li Qiye a hand. 1

“You came at just the right time, you saved me from using a piece of Immortal Writ.” Li Qiye smiled and said elegantly after seeing Princess Zhong Zhou.

“Bang–bang–bang!” At the same time, in the highest reaches of the heavens up above, the Underworld River started to flow from its source again, carrying howling thunder as the endless violet lightning began to form once again.

“You stole the Underworld Water of hell, it will not let you go!” Even though her eyes were closed, Princess Zhong Zhou still glanced at Li Qiye and said: “Return the Underworld Water back to hell!”

Li Qiye and his gigantic body stared at the violet lightning in the sky, then he shrugged and said: “So stingy.” Finished commenting, he opened his mouth and spewed out the endless Underworld Water towards the sky and eventually, it disappeared up in the nine heavens.

The surprising thing was that once Li Qiye returned the Underworld Water, the violet lightning overflowing from the nine heavens suddenly disappeared!

Li Qiye’s body gradually turned smaller once the water was released and finally, he went back to his original appearance.

“This thing is truly too cheap. Each time someone tries to steal some Underworld Water, it always invokes a lightning tribulation!” Li Qiye begrudgingly continued: “I initially wanted to refine this Underworld Water into a little nice something for the next physique devil tribulation! But now, this thing demanded me to give back the Underworld Water like a miserly god. Isn’t it only Underworld Water!?”

Li Qiye’s crazy words left others speechless. This boy was a bit too demonic and scary. Wanting to store such a large amount of Underworld Water in his inner body — this was truly insanity!

“Return…” At this time, a bright light surged from Li Qiye’s chest cavity and his Inner Physique arched towards the sky to absorb the purple liquid. This liquid was initially the devil physique that was encompassed in violet lightning and killed by the Imperial Violet Hammer. The Inner Physique slowly sucked in the purple liquid back into his chest. Moments later, clanking sounds rang out as chains of universal laws appeared on the Inner Physique like tree roots wanting to suck the purple liquid dry.

In a trice, the Inner Physique’s light reached its maximum luminosity as the universal laws morphed into an armor on Li Qiye’s body. At the same time, the Inner Physique floated up and down inside his chest cavity, giving him the appearance of a god that was capable of illuminating all worlds and suppressing demon kings from all eras!

“The Hell Suppressing Godly Physique at minor completion!” Witnessing such a display caused Saint Child Bao Zhu to quietly whisper. There was no doubt that his remark came with spiteful jealousy. This was something he had aspired for for his whole life, yet it was achieved by a Mortal Physique and was cultivated all the way to minor completion. How could he not become enraged with jealousy?

“The physique devil went back to its origin while carrying along its essence back into its body. Grand overflowing abstract profundity — truly perfection!” Li Qiye was very pleased with his physique tribulation, but he still had a lingering sentiment: “The old villainous heaven truly does not allow for a Mortal Physique to cultivate into an immortal one. If it wasn’t for these old devils lending me a hand, then this physique tribulation would have been a bit troublesome.”

“He used the group of Mo Shen to defeat his physique devil, surpass the tribulation, and even reach the state of grand overflowing abstract profundity while surpassing his physique tribulation perfectly!” Hearing Li Qiye’s words, the old Turtle Monarch couldn’t help but to take a step back further away from Li Qiye. At this point, he understood that this kid — from the very start — had schemed against Venerable Mo Shen, the descendant of Wise Monarch Jiang Zuo, and the Eighth Ancestor of the Ancient Kingdom. As long as they took action, it would be equivalent to helping him surpass the physique tribulation while he used this tribulation to kill all of them!

The old Turtle Monarch turned gray with his hair standing on end. This kid was truly frightening; he even dared to scheme against an invincible existence like the Azure Mysterious Ancient Kingdom’s Eighth Ancestor. I better stay away from this kid in the future; otherwise, I would die without knowing the reason why!

The other Demon Monarchs next to the Old Turtle also became shocked as their blood ran cold after hearing this. This kid was truly terrifying.

“Have you always been shameless like this?” Princess Zhong Zhou stared at Li Qiye with her closed eyes while giving off the feeling of dissatisfaction towards him.

“Aa, ah, this is called calculating, not shamelessness. Some things couldn’t be helped, and a few other things were only misunderstandings.” Li Qiye forced a wry smile. Only he and her understood this conversation for it was related to some secrets of previous years.

Li Qiye then changed the subject and smilingly said: “Since you already took action, would you be so kind as to help me all the way? Help me kill the rest of these old fools from the Ancient Kingdom, then I will give you a great fortune!”2

Princess Zhong Zhou opened her eyes that flashed a bloody light, then she closed them again. At this time, she turned towards the Azure Mysterious Ancient Kingdom’s base.

Despite their setback in Ancient Sky City, the Ancient Kingdom did not give up their plans to bury their ancestor on an Underworld Boat; they simply became more low-key. However, when their ancestor noticed Li Qiye’s Immortal Physique reaching some success, with their hatred rekindled, they immediately tried to kill Li Qiye. They absolutely couldn’t allow for this kid to leave this place alive, but they didn’t know that it would end with their own demise.
