“Senior apprentice-sister”

“We’re going tostill reo, when she stroked her belly as she watched hi environ’sher soul, it had co had risked his life and had done everything he could possibly do Thankfully, he had been lucky enough to acquire the [Ninehorn Lightning Serpent] evasion technique, had been lucky enough to possess powerful heartforce, and had been lucky enough that senior fuxi had created the Rahu Formation for him This was the reason why he had been able to force the Seamless Gate to bow its head

Finally…he and his daughter was going to be reunited with his wife The three of them would be reunited once more, as a family

Rumble…

A ripple of power descended Startled, Ning turned his head to look

A black-robedat the end of an upraised path in the distance The black-robed man sauntered towards him, a smile on his face “This island isn’t bad It’s quite beautiful Your Primaltwin remains on the Deerchaser world, but your true body has appeared It seeed from Undermoon Lake”

“Yes” Ning nodded

“For nodded, letting out a sigh of praise “To tell you the truth, Ji Ning…although the two of us are on enemy sides, I admit I’e fro entered during the Pri the Three Realms era”

Ning said, “I’ve eed Isn’t it time for you to hold to your promise?”

“Did you bring the treasures I asked for?” The black-robed Godking laughed, “Per what I originally said, I would only release Yu Wei’s soul to you once you gave the treasures to me”

“I brought thean to speed up uncontrollably, but he was able to remain calm

“I trust that you have the other two treasures…but what of the Iceheart Leaf?” The black-robed Godking laughed

Ning waved his hand A semi-transparent, crystalline Iceheart Leaf suddenly appeared, levitating above his hands

“It really is an Iceheart Leaf” The black-robed Godking inspected it carefully, a slightly intoxicated look in his eyes “It really is quite beautiful, just as the legends said it to be This is ht You can destroy it now”

“Destroy it?” Ning’s heart sank What was the , then destroy the Iceheart Leaf?

“Now that I’ve seen it, it’s of no further use to“I just wanted the chance to look at it, that’s all”

“I brought you the treasures that you asked for Please giveimmediately said

“Ahaha…” The black-robed Godking let out an ear-piercing laugh, an uproarious laugh, a crazy laugh He laughed so hard, tears nearly cahter as he pointed a quavering hand at Ning “Oh, Ji Ning, Ji Ning…and to think that you are a ‘peerless genius of this age’ Haven’t you understood yet? When I told you to get me Iceheart Leaf, I simply wanted to force you into Underh they are of soless to the Seamless Gate as a whole Did you really think I would care about those three treasures?”

“All I wanted was for you to enter Undermoon Lake!”

“Although you h It was enough Our ‘Three Realms infiltration phase’ is coainst your Nuwa Alliance on the Deerchaser world, and soon the entire war for karmic luck will be at an end The infiltration phase is over It no longer hter “If you came out after just one or two centuries, I’d probably have to co else, but six hundred years? You are no longer a threat”

“No threat at all”

“Nowadays, our Seamless Gate’s forces are sent out in massive armies You, afor continued to roar with ear-piercing laughter like a madman

Years ago, the Godking had been forced by Ning to bow his head The Godking had been enraged to the point of wanting to kill Ning, but it wasn’t appropriate for hied, see Ning feel despair…that would be evenhim

As the black-robed Godking laughed with abandon, he kept a careful watch over Ning, noting every single change in expression He wanted to see Ning’s face become filled with panic and despair Only then would the deht be afraid of their dark side, but the Godking was a cultivator of Lord Demonheart’s arts He himself was the veritable incarnation of a mental devil, while his master was the Lord of the Demonheart

But…he was disappointed

Ning just stood there Stood there, not reacting at all

Crack So suddenly seemed to shatter

That woman who had quietly, blissfully watched with a s had trained in the sword…she was never co back
