they were created to stave off boredom and loneliness, many of them are "orphans." Even in death, no one would know, no one would care.But after all, they keep themselves company for a long time and...Chapter 1260: Where is the Discrepancy

Chapter 1260: Something's Wrong

No problem.

The Demon Lord said something then slowly vanished.

Ye Fusheng also walked out of the cave and returned to the original path.

He turned his head to gaze at the distant, gray-tinged mountain range, still unable to comprehend why there would be such a place in the realm of Fengdu, let alone such an existence. It was as if it were a dream.

Judging from the hostility the Demon Lord just displayed, she has likely been targeting Emperor Fengdu for quite some time. I believe Emperor Fengdu is also aware of her, but why hasn't he taken any action

This demon master was no insignificant figure, not someone she would casually dispatch. His power was at least on par with the Ghost Emperor, and perhaps even slightly superior. Could anyone truly pose a threat to him

Why tolerate her existence

"There's no going back."

Ye Fu Sheng retracted his gaze, his face full of bitterness.

Perhaps crossing the mountains could return her to the mortal realm, but alas, the Demon Lord blocked her path, making it impossible to pass. Moreover, she still needed to deal with the demonic energy within her body.

Walking back along the road, it was no different from the way we came. At first, there were few people, then more and more as we approached Fengdu City, until finally people began queuing to enter.

Here, it has always been this way, unchanged for millennia.

Ye Fu walked at the front of the line, almost entering the sight of the ghost messengers, he moved closer to the foot of the mountain, and finally followed a path uphill until he reached the cave.

Standing at the mouth of the cave, gazing out at the magnificent and majestic city of Fengdu, to be honest, Emperor Fengdu governs well. Here, everything is in order, even more orderly than the mortal world.

"You threatened me with demonic energy, telling me to assassinate the Emperor of Fengdu. But why didn't you consider that I could simply confront the Emperor of Fengdu directly and ask him to help me cleanse the demonic energy"

On his way back, Ye Fusheng had already thought of a countermeasure. The Emperor of the Underworld was his benefactor, and regardless of whether he had the ability to intervene, it would be impossible to assassinate him.

Not only that, but they will also take the initiative to point it out.

Back in the cave, he softly called out, “Lord Yama of the Underworld, this junior has something to report.”

I don't know if he could hear, but this was the only way. If he entered Fengdu City to look for him or shouted out loud, he would definitely be heard by others. No one could guarantee whether they would report it to the upper realm.

Slow and steady wins the race.

I waited for a few seconds, but there was no response.

A faint aura slowly leaked from his body, filling the cave.

Once again, he said: "Great Emperor Fengdu, I have something to report. It concerns the Demon Lord over in Qunshan."

As expected, there was a response.

The voice of the Emperor of Fengdu suddenly appeared in his ear: "She's here to see you"

Ye Fusheng replied frankly, "The junior wishes to return to the mortal world, walk along the path, reach the mountains, and coincidentally meet her."

The Lord of Fengdu fell silent for a moment: "Although the Three Realms are connected, they are not entirely so. As you have no physical body and only exist as a soul, you cannot enter the mortal realm. Forcefully entering the Heavenly Dao is impermissible; it would rapidly deplete your soul until you dissipate into nothingness."

"Well, what did she say to you"

Ye Fu Sheng furrowed his brows. He understood what was said about the rapid consumption of soul energy, as soul energy is Yin in nature and appearing in the mortal realm meant enduring the scorching sun and the overwhelming Yang Qi of the mundane world.

But his words deliberately omitted "mountain".

Could the mountains beyond be the boundary between Fengdu and the mortal world

Is it possible to return to the mortal realm simply by crossing over mountains

Withdrawn thoughts, replied: "He infused demonic qi into my junior's body, requiring me to assassinate you within three days, or else the demonic qi would corrode until I was reduced to ashes."

The Emperor of Fengdu fell silent again, this time for a considerably longer period, almost half a quarter of an hour.

"Got it."

Ye Fusheng heard the tone in his words that he was leaving, and his heart couldn't help but tremble. He took the initiative and said, "Then what about the demonic energy in my body"

"Helpless."

The Great Emperor of Fengdu spoke plainly: “Demonic Qi has already merged with your body. If you still had a physical form, I could forcibly separate it. However, since you are a soul, if I try to forcefully extract it, I fear that before I can even pull it out, you will have vanished into nothingness.”

Ye Fusheng's mind buzzed, and he was helpless

No wonder the Demon Lord only left her demonic energy in her body and didn't make things difficult. She had foreseen that she would confess to the Emperor of Fengdu, and knew he was powerless

Doesn't that mean we can only wait for death

"Is there another way" he asked urgently. "I can't just sit here and wait to die."

Mortality: An eternal absence.

Fenghuang City of Death: Every dimension no longer exists.

The Emperor of Fengdu said, “She is a lunatic. If you go to her, there might be a glimmer of hope…”

He was about to leave, no more communication.

"Wait..."

Ye Fusheng quickly tried to persuade him, he wasn't looking for this kind of result! What use was asking the demon lord But before he could finish his sentence, the feeling in his ear vanished completely.

The Grand Emperor of Fengdu has departed completely.

Ye Fusheng's body suddenly froze, a powerless anger welling up in his heart. In the mortal realm, he could remain composed even when facing those from the celestial realms. Especially after his Dao Heart breakthrough and reaching the half-step Human Emperor realm, he viewed those from the celestial realms as mere ants.

Nowadays, I am at the mercy of others, powerless to resist.

What can I do

Ye Fusheng was somewhat disoriented, and the Emperor of Fengdu couldn't heal him. The Demon Lord had only given him three days, and he didn't doubt at all that he would completely perish in three days because normal people could never / understand the thinking of a madman.

"Go ask"

It simply won't work.

The reason one becomes a demon is because their Dao heart has gone astray. And to reach this stage of being a demon, one must make an unwavering commitment that ordinary people cannot understand. In short, once something is decided upon, it will never be revoked.

Seeking out the Demon Lord will not only be ineffective but may also anger her.

Ye Fusheng forced himself to calm down, because worrying was useless and would only cloud his judgment.

Sitting on the cushion on the ground, imitating Ye Wuji's posture from back then, facing the wall with his back to the cave entrance.

"Run, impossible!"

"It's impossible!"

"Fight, impossible!"

"Looking around, there are only dead ends."

"Actually, the fundamental way to change the problem is very simple: improve your own strength. If you can become as powerful as Ye Wuji, not to mention a small demon lord, even the Emperor of Fengdu would be powerless to resist."

“The problem is that the soul body state can’t be improved!”

Ye Fu Sheng began to flicker, his mind wavering.

What realm is Ye Wuji ultimately

Ye Fusheng thought about this problem again. Judging from his strength, he could punch through the underworld and kick up to the upper realm without any doubt. He was indeed the legendary emperor of human beings.

But in the mouths of the people of Daxia, he was nothing more than a god realm.

In the Ye family's eyes, he was a half-step martial god.

In both Fengdu and the Upper Realm, why is it that when facing a strong opponent, there's such a vast difference in strength

Ye Fusheng shook his head, no longer thinking about this issue. Because now even if he understood it, it would be useless and could not affect the desperate situation.

He quickly reached out and pulled out the *Nine Profound Scriptures* from his bosom. All things under heaven are governed by the Nine Profounds, even Fengdu came after this *Nine Profound Scriptures*, but its foundation is still here. Perhaps there might be an answer here.

As soon as he took out the Jiuxuan Scripture, several sheets of paper fluttered out along with it—they were marriage certificates.

The marriage certificate was always with him, and when his body fell apart, it went to the underworld with him. You could say it was a burial item.

Seeing the marriage certificate, a bitter smile appeared on his face again. They were still waiting for him.

Especially the ninth fiancee, I haven't found her yet, and I don't know if there is a chance to meet her.

Put the marriage certificate back into her bosom.

Just put it back, and I feel something's still wrong...apped him away.The man flew out several dozen feet and crashed heavily to the ground, but he didn't fear. With a ferocious expression, he quickly got up and drifted toward Ye Fusheng."Dare to move me,...
