A group of people were being questioned by the Demon God Sectâs experts. Once in a while, a human clan would conflict with a member of the Demon God Sect and get themselves killed.
Hierarch Blacknether had just suffered a setback from the Void Illusionary Divine Palace and was all the more furious. His subordinates were also running unrestrained. The slightest unwillingness to cooperate meant someone was going to be killed. Since they had Hierarch Blacknether backing them, what was there to fear?
Nie Li glanced into the distance, towards Hierarch Blacknether. With the presence of a Martial Ancestor Realm expert, escaping wasnât going to be easy, even with Yan Yangâs help.
What should he do?
Nie Liâs brain started turning for ideas.
Yan Yang transmitted his voice to Nie Li, âThis Hierarch Blacknether is an extremely difficult person! However, he still has some fears that restrain him. I am the Holy Son of the Skyblaze Sect. He definitely wonât take actions against me without thinking them through. However, that wonât be the same for anyone else, especially for a Heavenly Fate Realm genius like you. Itâll get dangerous if you stay next to me. He wonât touch me carelessly, but he might kill anyone around me, just to assert dominance.â
The Skyblaze and Demon Godâs Sects had been in conflict for years. But that was just between sects. The Martial Ancestor Realm experts of either sect werenât going to start their own private wars for nothing. After all, the goal after reaching the Martial Ancestor Realm was only the reach the one above that. It would be unwise to exhaust their spirits for no reason! Unless it was for a direct conflict of interests for their sects, under normal circumstances, they would fear one another.
Killing the Holy Son of the Skyblaze Sect might cause the Martial Ancestor Realm experts of the Skyblaze Sect to take action against Hierarch Blacknether. Hierarch Blacknether definitely didnât want that to happen. However, if it was only someone at Yan Yangâs side, then Hierarch Blacknether had nothing to fear.
Nie Li said, âBrother Yan Yang, rather than waiting here, why donât we take a risk? If I were to go by myself, itâd definitely be much more dangerous. Those people from the Demon Godâs Sect would definitely kill me. But if I go in behind you, then I might have a chance!â
He was betting that Hierarch Blacknether wouldnât pay any attention to them.
Yan Yang nodded his head after some pondering. It sounded plausible.
There was no way that Nie Li could leave, just by himself!
âWe have to be quick about it. If the Holy Son Li Huo comes out, itâll get troublesome!â Yan Yang reminded. The Holy Son Li Huo was Hierarch Blacknetherâs direct disciple!
The two of them flew towards the exit of the palace.
A 9-stage Heavenly Axis Realm expert from the Demon God Sect reached out and grabbed Yan Yang. âYou two! Stop where you are!â
Yan Yang coldly snorted as a powerful energy shrouded his body. That 9-stage Heavenly Axis Realm expert bounced off with a *Bang!*, and he looked at Yan Yang in astonishment. After all, Yan Yang was only in the Heavenly Axis Realm, but the strength he possessed was already far above that guardâs!
âHereâs my stuff!â Yan Yang tossed his items to the Demon Godâs Sect expert with a flick of his hand.
The Demon God Sect expert furrowed his brows. If they were to go at it again, he knew he wouldnât be Yan Yangâs opponent. Thatâd be extremely humiliating! He coldly snorted and looked over Yan Yang and Nie Li with a blank face. Neither of them had anything hidden on their person.
Then, he glanced inside Yan Yangâs interspatial ring and his eyes lit up.
The Demon Godâs Sect expert waved his hand. âAt least youâre tactful. Now, get lost!â
Yan Yang and Nie Li lowered their heads and hurriedly walked off.
They felt a powerful intent sweeping over them and Nie Li felt suffocating pressure.
Hierarch Blacknether was examining them!
That powerful intent pulled away after a moment. Yan Yang had nothing with him and Hierarch Blacknether definitely couldnât sense the Myriad Miles Rivers and Mountains Painting within Nie Liâs soul realm. Aside from that, Nie Li had nothing else with him. Hierarch Blacknether probably couldnât be bothered to take action against a mere Heavenly Fate Realm like Nie Li!
After sweeping an eye at Nie Li and Yan Yang, Hierarch Blacknether looked away.
Since he didnât want to kill Yan Yang, he simply pretend that he hadnât seen them.
Wu Yazi furrowed his brows as he watched Yan Yang and Nie Li safely leave. He was confused. Did they really hand their things over so obediently?
That didnât make any sense!
Nie Li definitely wouldnât be that obedient! There had to be something fishy!
Wu Yazi remained silent for a brief moment. After a bit, he decided not to think about it. It didnât matter what kinds of treasures Nie Li had left with; there was nothing that Wu Yazi could do. If Hierarch Blacknether or the Holy Son Li Huo found out about the Demon Blood Sacrifice, heâd definitely be buried in an unmarked grave!
After Nie Li and Yan Yang had left the Void Illusionary Divine Palace, they flew away.
Half an hour later, the Holy Son Li Huo flew out of the Void Illusionary Divine Palace.
âMaster!â Holy Son Li Huo slightly bowed towards Hierarch Blacknether, who was hovering in the sky.
The Hierarch Blacknether slightly nodded and inquired, âDisciple, have you harvested anything in the palace?â
âReporting to Master! The mechanisms within the palace are extremely complicated with secret paths. Your disciple currently has no harvest!â The Holy Son Li Huo responded rather gloomily. He didnât dare inform his Master that heâd been tricked by Nie Li. He would definitely lose face if that was known to others!
Hierarch Blacknetherâs face was extremely ugly as he continued, âIâve already broken the barrier of the palace, but Iâve discovered nothing?â
âMaster, did you see a few people earlier?â The Holy Son Li Huo enquired.
âA few people? Who?â Hierarch Blacknetherâs knitted his brows.
âWu Yazi, Yan Yang, and two strangers!â said Holy Son Li Huo.
âWu Yazi is inside the palace. As for Yan Yang, he left just now!â Hierarch Blacknether said. âHeâs the Holy Son of the Skyblaze Sect, disciple to that old fart. For the time being, I donât want any trouble with that old fart!â
Before, Hierarch Blacknetherâs strength was already a hair lower than Yan Yangâs masterâs. And now, heâd lost so much of his intent to those black flames. Thatâs why he let Yan Yang leave.
Holy Son Li Huo immediately followed, âLord Master, they mightâve taken the treasures of the Void Illusionary Divine Palace with them!â
Hierarch Blacknether shook his head and said, âThatâs impossible. Thereâs no way the two of them couldâve hidden anything from my eyes!â
Heâd already used his intent to search Nie Li and Yan Yang. He hadnât found anything on either of them.
The Holy Son Li Huo said, âI donât know whatâs going on, but Iâm fairly certain that thereâs something fishy going on with Yan Yang!â
Hierarch Blacknether knitted his brows and waved his right hand. An interspatial ring sailed towards Li Huo. âHereâs Yan Yangâs interspatial ring. Take a look.â
The Holy Son Li Huo swept an eye over its contents and said, âItâs true that thereâs quite a few decent pieces in here, but Yan Yang has definitely hidden another portion of it. Master, please stop him! Donât let him get away!â
A chilling ray of light flashed through Hierarch Blacknetherâs eyes as he frowned. So in this world, there still existed a method to hide things from his eyes! If thatâs true, then heâd definitely hunt those two down. Hierarch Blacknether coldly snorted as he turned into a streak of light, and disappeared into the horizon.
