Tales of Demons and Gods Chapter 157
Xiao Ningāer turned around and took one last look at this Abyss Prison realm. Although the Abyss Prison realm is filled with danger, she had an adventure together with Nie Li. When she nearly died, Nie Li saved her from the mouth of the demon beast without any regards for his own safety.
She wonāt forget anything that happened here, itāll become a precious memory stored in her heart.
Sometimes, she would even think how good it would be if they were to remain in the Abyss Prison realm forever. Even if the Abyss Prison realm is freezing cold, with Nie Li here, she would feel warm and have someone to rely on. She sighed in her heart because this is only her wonderful imagination.
Nie Li turned his head back and puzzledly asked, āNingāer, whatās wrong?ā
āNothing.ā said Xiao Ningāer, shaking her head as her cheeks flushed red. She lowered her head as she walked into the teleportation array.
Nie Li then stepped into the teleportation array as well.
While they were gone, the Ten Thousand Demonic Beast Array was completed. Both Ye Xiu and Ye Zong felt excited in their hearts. The moment the Ten Thousand Demonic Beast Array is turned on, Glory City will have another protective barrier.
āThat brat, Nie Li, could be considered to have done a major contribution to Glory City. All of his past debts are written off. As long as he is able to continue to make many contributions to Glory City, even if he wants these old bones to apologize to him, thereās no problem in it!ā Ye Zong said, looking at the majestic Ten Thousand Demonic Beast Array.
He has already seen the power of Tai Yi Killing Array and the Divine Thunder Killing Array. The eight killing arrays come together to form the Ten Thousand Demonic Beast Array, itās power is simply unimaginable.
When the Abyss Demon invaded the City Lordās Mansion, at the crucial moment, Nie Li passed the control of the Divine Thunder Killing Array and Tai Yi Killing Array over to Ye Zong. At that moment, Ye Zongās ill feelings towards Nie Li have already vanished and he was even vaguely liking the kid.
Although Nie Li is a little laid-back, he is refined within his crude attitude. At the same time, he is also righteous. Both the elixirs and the Ten Thousand Demonic Beast Array are monumental contributions towards Glory City.
In Ye Zongās view, guarding Glory City is a big deal. Anything else is nothing more than small matters. Of course, he still doesnāt easily miss anything in regards to his daughter.
āWhere did that brat, Nie Li, go? Why canāt we find him, even after so long?ā Ye Zong knitted his brows. Nie Li and his group has been missing for many days now.
Ye Xiu was also helpless regarding this matter. He has dispatched a lot of people to search many places, but couldnāt find any trace of Nie Li and his groupās trail. He vaguely felt unease. Could it be that they were captured by the Dark Guild?ā¦ā¦Right now, they still donāt have any evidence to prove that fact.
At this moment, they realised Nie Liās importance to Glory City. If they were to know of this earlier, they would have given Nie Li some guards.
A moment later, an underling hastily ran in.
āReport to City Lord, Lord Ye Xiu, Nie Li is back. Heās in the City Lordās Mansionās hall right now.ā
Hearing this report, both Ye Xiu and Ye Zong had traces of joy flashing across their eyes.
That kid is finally back! They could finally dispel the doubts in their heart.
City Lordās Mansionās hall
Nie Li and his group were feeling a little bored. Ye Ziyun hurriedly walked in, the moment she saw Nie Li, the worry that was deeply within her eyes was finally dispersed. In this period of time, it was as though Nie Li had disappeared, causing her to be filled with unease, making her toss about restlessly.
Even if she doesnāt admit it, Nie Li has already become one of the important people in her life.
Sometimes, she would think of a question. If Nie Li were to suddenly disappear from her life, what would her life be like? Every time she thought of this question, she would feel panic in her heart. Although Nie Li is always so annoying and so hateful, he gave some colour to her pale white, simple life. He gave her his attention and the feeling of being protected.
When she saw Nie Li, she felt relief.
āZiyun!ā Nie Li called out, smiling. The reason for Ye Ziyun to rush in here couldnāt be because sheās worried for him and couldnāt wait any longer, right?
Seeing Xiao Ningāer standing beside Nie Li, without knowing why, Ye Ziyun felt a little depressed in her heart and turned around to leave. Nie Li suddenly went missing for dozens of days and when he came back, he was with Xiao Ningāer.
Seeing this scene, Nie Li was slightly stunned. He hurriedly block Ye Ziyunās route and smilingly said, āWhy are you leaving without saying anything!ā
āI walked into the wrong place,ā Ye Ziyun pouted. She doesnāt want to admit that she rushed over here because she was worried about Nie Li.
Nie Li, however, smiled as he looked at Ye Ziyun. To be able to see her again, how wonderful.
Ye Ziyun suddenly woke up, for what reason was she upset? Was it because Nie Li left without saying anything? Or was it because, when Nie Li came back, he was with Xiao Ningāer? Why was she feeling like this? This made her confused.
āWrong place? Are you sure that youāre not here looking for me?ā Nie Li said, chuckling. Suddenly, he extended his hand, held Ye Ziyunās hand and shoved the Blizzard Spiritual Gem into them. āThis gem is for you. My friends are all here, Iāll introduction them to you.ā
He then walked to where Du Ze and the rest are, together with her.
Ye Ziyunās face flushed red and hurriedly tried to break free from Nie Liās grasp. Under the eyes of so many people, she felt very embarrassed.
Watching this scene, Xiao Ningāerās eyes had a light of dejection. Although Nie Li has told her long ago that Ye Ziyun is the most important person in his life, and that even if he has to sacrifice his life, he will still guard her side, Xiao Ningāer was like a moth attracted to the flame, and chose to stay by Nie Liās side. However, seeing Nie Li and Ye Ziyun being so close together, she couldnāt endure the throbbing pain in her heart.
Xiao Ningāer and Ye Ziyunās eyes made contact with each other, and both of them were feeling a little awkward as they turned their gazes away.
Lu Piao gave Nie Li a small thumbs up in his heart. Nie Li really is the model of his generation. Even though Ningāer are Ye Ziyun are considered goddess level existences, they were easily taken by Nie Li.
At this moment, seeing Lu Piaoās small action, Xiao Xue gave Lu Piao a punch and gave him a fierce look.
Lu Piao winced. If Xiao Xue could be more like Xiao Ningāer or Ye Ziyun, who were very gentle, heād already be very content. He couldnāt help exhaling a long sigh in his heart.
āWeāre all classmates, we already know each other!ā Du Ze gave Ye Ziyun a light smile, āThis is Xiao Xue, Lu Piaoās fiancee!ā
Although they were classmates, a few months earlier, theyāre still very unfamiliar with Ye Ziyun. But because of Nie Li, they were able to get slightly familiar with each other.
Du Ze, Lu Piao, Wei Nan and the rest were laughing and chatting. They talked about their experiences in the Abyss Prison realm, which aroused Ye Ziyunās curiosity. She never thought that in this period of time, Nie Li and his friends would actually go into that kind of place. Ever since she was young, aside from the Ancient Orchid City Ruins, she has never visited any other place outside of Glory City, giving her all kinds of expectations towards the outside world.
At this moment, Ye Zong and Ye Xiu entered the hall.
When Ye Zong entered, Ye Ziyunās face slightly changed. If her father saw her together with Nie Li, heād definitely be unhappy.
Ye Zongās gaze fell onto Nie Li and then looked at Ye Ziyun, and his brows slightly came together. He originally thought of writing off all of Nie Liās debts, but the moment he saw Ye Ziyun standing so close to Nie Li, he felt a little unhappy about it. He himself has been played around by Nie Li before, not to mention the simple Yunāer.
Ye Zong put on a face and coughed twice.
āRespects to the City Lord!ā Du Ze, Lu Piao and the rest hurriedly gave a bow to Ye Zong. They have not seen Ye Zong before. Since this is their first time seeing the majesty of the City Lord, they couldnāt help feeling a little panic.
Nie Li slowly turned his back and greeted, while laughing, āGood day, father-in-law!ā
Hearing Nie Liās words, Ye Zong almost felt suffocated. Nie Li did not give him any route to back off, and was trying to fixate everything into reality. Nie Li called him father-in-law in front of so many people, if this news were to spread out, then itād be hard for the Snow Wind Family to decline it!
It this was someone else, Ye Zong would definitely give him a ruthless slap. However, whenever he faced Nie Li, he felt powerless. He still has many things that he needed Nie Liās help with. He coughed and shifted his gaze.
When Nie Li addressed Ye Zong in this way, Ye Ziyunās face blushed red as she anxiously pulled the corner of Nie Liās clothes. She originally thought that Ye Zong would give Nie Li a tough lesson. She never thought that Ye Zong would only cough and turn his head away, pretending not to hear anything. This time, even Ye Ziyun was dumbfounded.
Ye Ziyun wasnāt the only one, the others were also dumbfounded. Nie Li actually addressed Ye Zong as father-in-law and Ye Zong actually did not reject this. This is absolutely explosive news. Could it be that the City Lord have really recruited Nie Li to be his son-in-law?
The moment Ye Zong entered, Duan Jian felt a powerful aura coming from Ye Zongās body. So this supreme expert is masterās father-in-law. Duan Jian carved this into his heart.
Xiao Ningāer felt her nose turn slightly sour, and was enduring the tears from filling her eyes. She never thought that Nie Li and Ye Ziyun would have already progressed to such a degree, even the City Lord has agreed. Seeing Nie Liās back figure, she felt a deep loss and throbbing pain in her heart. She obviously knows that itās impossible, but she will still try her best. Perhaps she really has no fate to be with Nie Li. However, in Xiao Ningāerās heart, she still has her stubbornness. She still intends to remain by Nie Liās side, even if she doesnāt get married. Sheāll quietly wait until she grows old.
Seeing Ye Zongās expression, Nie Li lightly smiled. Ye Zong has finally gone soft.
That being the case, Ye Zong can be considered an inside person!
Nie Li moved to Ye Zongās side and smilingly said, āFather-in-law, when I entered, I noticed that the Ten Thousand Demonic Beast Array has been fully constructed. Iāll pass the control imprint over to you now!ā
Hearing what Nie Li just said, Ye Zong felt his face heating up. The Ten Thousand Demonic Beast Array is something he got by exchanging his daughter, this is simply filling him up with sad tears in his heart.
āFather-in-law, in this recent period of time, we opened the ancient array near the City Lordās Mansion. It turns out that the ancient array that leads to an Abyss Prison realm. Weāve gotten several good items from there. These are Blood Crystals that have undergone refinement. Itās something Iām giving to honour you!ā said Nie Li, grabbing a bunch of Blood Crystals from his interspatial ring and stuffing them into Ye Zongās hands.
Both Ye Xiu and Ye Zong were stunned. Blood Crystals are absolutely good stuff. With Blood Crystals, their cultivation can increase to new heights. It might be able to give a Black Gold rank a better chance to breakthrough into Legend rank!
āLord Ye Xiu, these are for you!ā Nie Li grabbed another batch of Blood Crystals and stuffed them into Ye Xiuās hands.
Taking so many Blood Crystal in one go, this is simply filthy rich!
