Upon hearing Yun Cheâs âdelightedâ greeting, Qianye Yingâerâs charming and dewy lips faintly curved up, âYun Che, before I met you, I had really never thought that there would actually be someone who had the qualifications to be chased by me from the Eastern Divine Region all the way to the God Realm of Absolute Beginning . â
Yun Che immediately looked as if he had received âan overwhelmingly flattering complimentâ .
âI had also never thought that her Highness the Goddess would actually be so infatuated with me . Actually, half a month ago, when I rejected the Goddessâ request for a âhumble marriageâ, it was not because I was unwilling to get married to you . Rather, it was because the Lady Goddess is a celestial fairy who transcends the moral world while I am just a lowly and lowborn commoner . n front of the Lady Goddess, I would only be able to feel ashamed of my inferiority, so I simply cannot bring myself to associate with your august presence . â
âOh? Is that so?â Qianye Yingâerâs golden eyes faintly narrowed, âThen thatâs truly such a shame . â
âNo, no, itâs not a shame at all,â Yun Che immediately said . âFor the Lady Goddess to be so infatuated with me that you would actually chase me all the way here from the Eastern Divine Region simply to take one more look at me, even though I have always shied away from women, I cannot help but be deeply moved by your actions . Since the Lady Goddess is so sincere, if I still continued to ignore your feelings then it would simply spoil the mood⊠Eh, no, I mean it would simply far too unappreciative of your kindness . â
Xia Qingyue, â . . . â
Qianye Yingâer, â . . . â
Just as Yun Che finished making that solemn announcement, he tried to struggle a bit before speaking with a fatuous smile on his face, âAlso, if I speak to you in my current state, it truly is rather inelegant and inappropriate . Do you want to release me first? If youâre here, even if I want to run, I wonât be able to anyways, right?â
As long as he could quietly regain his ability to move, he could grab Xia Qingyueâs hand and use the Void Illusion Stone to escape in the next instant .
âFine . â
Qianye Yingâer had actually agreed to it straight away . She slowly walked forward and arrived at Yun Cheâs side before extending a palm towards Yun Cheâs chest⊠Yet the instant she touched his chest, her hand sprang forward and grabbed his throat .
âUrkâŠâ The sound that Yun Che was about to make was forcefully stopped by those actions . The hand that wrapped around his throat shone like beautiful jade, yet it was as dreadful as a grim reaperâs scythe . It firmly grasped his throat before it slowly lifted him from the ground .
Qianye Yingâer was about as tall as Yun Che, so when she raised her hand, it was enough to completely dangle Yun Che in the air .
âYouâŠâ Yun Cheâs eyes widened as he barely managed to gasp out that word . He was unable to make a single sound after that .
Qianye Yingâerâs gaze was ice cold as the corners of her lips turned up in a mocking little smile, âYou couldnât have possibly used such clumsy words to make the Heavenly Slaughter Star God become so dead-set on you, right?â
Yun Cheâs pupils violently contracted .
But his expression did not change, he croaked out in a pained voice, âThe Heavenly Slaughter Star God⊠is dead-set⊠on me? What⊠are you talking aboutâŠâ
âOh⊠you donât understand what Iâm saying?â Qianye Yingâerâs grip began to slowly tighten, causing Yun Cheâs throat to begin to twist violently, âThen why donât you tell me this . Who exactly gave you the Evil God divine powers that you possess?â
This time, Yun Cheâs heart was completely overwhelmed with shock .
The Evil Godâs legacy, the greatest secret he possessed⊠Why did she know about it!?
Furthermore, it seemed as if she knew about his relationship with Jasmine as well!
âWhat⊠are⊠you⊠saying⊠. I donât understand⊠a single wordâŠâ He managed to croak out in a dry and hoarse voice .
âEven though your tongue is clumsy and cheap, your mouth is very stubborn,â The corner of Qianye Yingâerâs lips curved up into a smile that was even more mocking than before, âHowever, you do not need to admit anything . It matters not one bit to me whether you admit it or not . â
At this moment, she began to slowly loosen her grip and immediately, Yun Che fell and slumped to the ground like mud . He still could not move an inch of his body and the only thing he could muster was the occasional twitch and spasm .
âI⊠really donât know⊠what youâre talking about!â Yun Che gasped out roughly but his heart continued to sink at a precipitous rate .
He finally started to understand what Qianye Yingâer wanted, but he simply did not understand why she would know these thingsâŠ
âDo you know why the Heavenly Slaughter Star God was able to retrieve the inheritance of the Evil God?â Qianye Yingâer suddenly said in a cold voice .
Yun Che, â . . . â
âTwelve years ago, I just so happened to come across this piece of news . The Southern Divine Regionâs Southern Sea God Realm had discovered remnants left behind by the Evil God, and it was very likely that among these were the legacy or rare treasures left behind by the Evil God,â Qianye Yingâer recounted in an indifferent tone . âThus, I used a unique method to make sure that this news reached the Heavenly Slaughter Star Godâs ears . â
Discovering the remnants left behind by a Creation God, such a startling and earth-shaking discovery would definitely be an important secret that could not be leaked to the world . Yet, somehow, the Qianye Yingâer, who did not even belong to the Southern Divine Region, actually knew about itâŠ
Southern SeaâŠ
Yun Che suddenly recalled where he had heard that nameâŠ
The Southern Sea God Emperor, one of the four god emperors of the Southern Divine Region⊠No that was not right, he was their head!
The reason why he knew that name was because of what happened after the Brahma Heaven God Emperor had announced to everyone that he wanted to betroth Qianye Yingâer to the lowly him⊠He had found out that this Southern Sea God Emperor was extremely infatuated with Qianye Yingâer, and every time he came to the Eastern Divine Region, it was almost always because of her . This was a well-known fact that nearly everyone in the Realm of the Gods knew about .
He was the one who had told Qianye Yingâer!?
âDo you know why I passed this information along to the Heavenly Slaughter Star God?â
âBecause⊠you⊠wanted to assassinate her?â Yun Che said through quietly gritted teeth .
âAt least youâre not that stupid,â Qianye Yingâer said with an apathetic small laugh . âAfter the Heavenly Wolf Star God Su Xi died, your Heavenly Slaughter Star God wanted to kill me even in her dreams . Furthermore, you could indeed count the Heavenly Slaughter Star God amongst the people who could truly cause me fear . Since she wanted to kill me so badly, I had no choice but to allow her to disappear from the face of this earth . â
âSo do you think that a person who was chasing after power like a madman could reject the allure of the âremnants of a Creation Godâ?â
Yun Che, â . . . â
âNo, of course she wouldnât be able to . She kept it from everyone else and ventured forth to the Southern Divine Region by herself . But itâs too bad that she did not know that this particular remnant of the Evil God had long ago been swept clean by the people belonging to the Southern Sea God Realm, and that they had not found anything . So the only thing left for the Heavenly Slaughter Star God was a âdevilish poisonâ which bore the reputation of âslaying a godâ . â
The Absolute God Slaying Poison!
âCrr⊠CrrâŠâ Yun Che grit his teeth so hard that they cracked and blood oozed between the gaps of his teeth .
It was only at this moment today that he finally knew that the attempted assassination on Jasmine all those years ago had actually been by Qianye Yingâer .
If not for the fact that she had met Yun Che, Jasmine would have already lost her life twelve years ago .
It was no wonder that every time Jasmine occasionally mentioned the words âthat womanâ, she would radiate a hatred and resentment she could not suppress .
âItâs just that I didnât imagine, and the Southern Sea God Realm imagined even less, that in the remnant of the Evil God that everyone thought was empty, the Heavenly Slaughter Star God had actually found something that contained a drop of blood . Furthermore, when that thing appeared, the aura was incredibly shocking⊠But the Heavenly Slaughter Star God truly lived up to her name, her spiritual senses were so strong that it bodily slapped the faces of the entire Southern Sea God Realm . At the same time, however, she was also struck by the devilish poison that had been left just for her . â
âIf it was just a visit, it wouldâve been fine . But infiltrating another region and stealing the legacy left behind by another God, one that was a big taboo of the divine regions at that, even someone like a Star God could be killed on the spot because of it . As such, the Southern Sea God Realm chased the Heavenly Slaughter Star God over most of the Southern Divine Region, but in the end, the Heavenly Slaughter Star God was to able to escape back to the Eastern Divine Region⊠The so-called number one king realm in the Southern Divine Region, it looks like they were all a bunch of useless trash after all . â
âWhat âkill on the spotâ . . . Who would be willing to offend a king realm!?â Yun Che gnashed his teeth as the rage in his chest swelled so much that he felt his chest would rupture, âIt was clearly incited by you . That Southern Sea God Emperor only did this so that he could gain your favor ! It was all because of you!â
âOh? And whatâs wrong with that?â The corner of Qianye Yingâerâs lips twitched as she spoke to him in a voice that bordered on pity, âAll of you men, arenât you all this cheap and low?â
âYou!â There was only rage left in Yun Cheâs heart, yet his helpless body was unable to move a single inch . He gnashed his teeth time and again as he tried to force himself to calm down⊠He could not fall here, and even more than that, he could not fall into Qianye Yingâerâs hands . Definitely could not!
âSo it was rumored that the Heavenly Slaughter Star God survived but she had to abandon her body⊠Since that was the case, you were her spirit vessel at the time?â Qianye Yingâer gave a cold snort of disdain, âShe was chased over nearly the entire Southern Divine Region, yet it was not able to corrode her soul? Looks like that so-called Absolute God Slaying Poison was nothing much after all . As it turns out, the greatest ability of the strongest god emperor in the Southern Divine Region was the ability to talk big!â
â . . . â Yun Che stared at her silently with enraged eyes . All those years ago, the Absolute God Slaying Poison had not only corroded Jasmineâs soul, it had actually even been the extremely dreadful âcomplete corrosionâ at that . If not for that chance meeting with him, Jasmine would be dead even if she had ten more lives .
âYet, the Heavenly Slaughter Star God did not return to the Star God Realm after escaping back to the Eastern Divine Region . Instead, she ventured into a lower realm and that really was food for thought,â She looked at Yun Che before speaking in a cool voice, âBut the answer to this question is something youâll definitely able to tell me, right?â
âIâll say it once more, I did not understand a single word of what you just said, not a single word!â Yun Cheâs eyes grew focused and he would definitely not confess to anything, âI donât know what this âlegacy of the Evil Godâ is . Furthermore, even if the Heavenly Slaughter Star God truly did obtain such a thing, why would she not use it on herself instead of giving it to me, a lowly mortal from the lower realms!?â
âWell said,â Qianye Yingâer seemed to smile faintly before she extended an arm and grasped Yun Cheâs throat, lofting him into the air once more, âThis just so happens to be the most puzzling question to me as well . â
â . . . â His throat was once again fiercely gripped so Yun Che was unable to even breathe, much less make a sound .
âBesides the power of the Evil God, your body also possesses many other things of interest . For example, where did your dragon soul come from?â Qianye Yingâerâs face slowly inched closer and Yun Che could nearly feel her cold and merciless breath, âFurthermore, I also believe that besides these things, you definitely also have some other secrets that I am unaware of⊠But you must definitely, definitely not make me too disappointed . â
As her voice fell, her other hand extended and pressed against the top of Yun Cheâs skull .
This action caused Xia Qingyueâs beautiful pupils to contract, âStop!â
Qianye Yingâerâs actions clearly showed that she wanted to forcibly search his soul .
Qianye Yingâer glanced to the side as she spared a glance for Xia Qingyue .
âImmediately stop what you are doing⊠If you dare do him him, the Moon God Realm will never forgive you!â Xia Qingyue frostily proclaimed with cold eyes .
âThe Moon God Realm? HehâŠâ Qianye Yingâer gave an icy-cold laugh . âXia Qingyue, you caused the the entire Moon God Realm to lose every last bit of the dignity they had left, caused Yue Wuya to become the biggest laughingstock in the entire universe . So right now, the person that the Moon God Realm most wants to kill is actually you, right?â
Xia Qingyue, â . . . â
âIf I kill you and Yun Che, the Moon God Realm might just end up being grateful towards me⊠Isnât that the case?â Qianye Yingâerâs tone changed slightly as she mocked Xia Qingyue with each and every word, âLetâs not even consider the fact that youâre the sinner of the Moon God Realm, even if you became the god empress of the Moon God Realm, what you would you be able to do?â
âWhat happened to Yue Wugou all those years ago happened because I sent my people after her . After Yue Wuya found out, he not only did not even dare make a fart in protest, he even pretended that he was entirely unaware . So even if I kill you today, what do you think he can do?
â . . . â Yun Cheâs eyes flared wide open at those words .
â . . . â Xia Qingyue was completely stunned by those words as well . After that, her gaze grew disordered as her body began to shake with extreme intensity . âIt⊠was you⊠The one who harmed my mother all those years ago⊠was actually you!!â
âOh?â Xia Qingyueâs reaction caused Qianye Yingâerâs eyes to faintly narrow, those two eyes which glowed with a faint golden light swept across Xia Qingyueâs body . After that, she laughed in an indifferent voice, âAh, so it turns out that youâre Yue Wugouâs daughter!â
âNo wonder you have both the âHeart of Glazed Glassâ and the âNine Profound Exquisite Bodyâ . Itâs all because youâre the progeny of the âDivine Stainless Bodyâ!â
